What?! He raped a commoner girl! He played with the palace maids!
When Xia Zhengqi heard his daughter's voice, his heart beat like thunder.
"Qi'er, Zhichang... is my nephew after all. Please do this for my sake and your uncle's sake..." The Empress Dowager had tears in her eyes and grabbed Xia Zhengqi's sleeves with both hands.
[Wow, old woman, if we talk about being shameless, you're second to none. Even the treacherous concubine wouldn't dare claim to be first. Hahahahaha, it turns out your Jiang family is known for being shameless.]
"Old woman, how many years have you been using this trick to control my father? Whenever it comes to the Jiang family, or the affair with the concubine, you just put your big face and that of Grand Tutor Jiang on display.

In his heart, he always regarded Jiang as his biological mother.
Because of this relationship and this emotion, he always found it difficult to refuse the requests he made to Jiang.
For more than a decade, Jiang has used the so-called filial piety to hold him hostage and torture him.
Now that the Jiang family is powerful and the Empress Dowager has absolute power in the harem, he cannot escape blame.
"Mother, please be careful with your words!" Xia Zhengqi's eyes were fierce, and he flicked his sleeves violently, and Empress Dowager Jiang's hand was instantly shaken off.
