"You bastard, I don't want to live anymore, I'd rather die.

Anyway, the emperor will send Wen to prison sooner or later. It doesn’t matter if he dies sooner or later.”

"Enough! What's the name of that woman?" Lord Wen shouted sternly, but calmly enough.

Sun replied blankly: "Xiao...Xiao Liangliang."

Master Wen frowned and asked, "What's your surname, Xiao?"

A person died a few days ago. His surname was also Xiao. His name was Xiao Ziran.

It was because of him that the scientific examination fraud case was exposed.

"Plop—"

Wen Qingyuan knelt down on the side.

Sun:?

"No, son, why are you kneeling? Do you want to beg for mercy from your father? I'm telling you, I won't listen, I won't listen, your father has let me down—"

"Grandma, Dad, Mom, that...child is...mine."

The three were stunned.

Lord Wen came back to his senses, "Is this Xiao Liangliang the one who was having an affair with Shangguan Ze, the Xiao Liangliang who cheated on the eldest princess?"

Wen Qingyuan nodded, "Yes... yes."

"Wen Qingyuan! You! You are a bastard!" Lord Wen kicked Wen Qingyuan on the shoulder, knocking him to the ground. "Who do you dare to offend? Tell me! Are you related to Shangguan Ze? Are you related to the imperial examination fraud case?"

Wen Qingyuan was stunned, "Dad, I didn't! I really didn't! It was that Xiao Liangliang...she seduced me, and I couldn't control myself at the time, and then I slept with her. Who knew it would only happen once! I got it right the first time, and she said she was pregnant, but I didn't believe it at all, because she didn't just sleep with me normally.

She is also having an affair with Shangguan Ze.

But she said Shangguan Ze is not good enough and can’t have children at all…”

Lord Wen was shocked. Since the incident between Shangguan Ze and the princess, the news spread throughout the court.

The eldest princess has suffered a lot these years.

That Shangguan Ze is an ungrateful person who is a scourge to the court!

"You have done it yourself, so you should deal with it yourself! If I knew that you were involved in the imperial examination fraud, I would kick you out of the house!" Wen Daren left in anger.

Sun came to her senses and asked, "Son, is Xiao Liangliang's child yours? Not your father's?"

Wen Qingyuan shook his head, "No."

"Okay, okay, you scared me to death. It's okay if it's not true, it's okay if it's not true." Sun secretly breathed a sigh of relief and quickly stood up from the ground, brushing off the dust on her clothes. "No, Xiao Liangliang's son is yours?"

Wen Qingyuan nodded.

Sun kicked him in the face again!

Wen Qingyuan: “…”

I got beaten quite a lot today.

"You like everything. You even like Xiao Liangliang. Are you blind? Now that you've had a baby, what are you going to do?"

The old lady said: "Stop arguing. Now that something has happened, just deal with it. Even if you beat him to death, it has already happened."

Sun Shi calmed down and said, "Mother is teaching me this, but only about this matter...ah."

She had also met Xiao Liangliang, and she was really not a good wife.

Besides, if Xiao Liangliang was married into the palace, the affair between Xiao Liangliang and Shangguan Ze would have been publicized, wouldn't this be a slap in the face of the royal family?

This is something you absolutely cannot marry into.

What Sun Shi could figure out clearly, the old lady in her seventies could naturally figure out as well.

"Yuan'er, what do you think? Do you want to marry her?"

Wen Qingyuan quickly waved his hands, "Mom, you know I'm just playing around, I..."

Sun said viciously: "You're just playing around and you're making me pregnant!"

Wen Qingyuan scratched his head and regretted it.

Can you put the child back?

"Forget it, forget it. Give Xiao Liangliang some money and send her to the countryside." Sun looked at the old lady, "Mom, what do you think?"

The old lady sighed, "What a sin! I am old and can no longer take care of things. You can handle it. Yuan'er, you... well, I am afraid that the reputation of the Wen family will be ruined because of you."

The old lady, leaning on a cane and accompanied by her maid, left the hall, not wanting to even look at Wen Qingyuan.

This grandson is useless.

"Yuan'er, let me ask you one more thing." Sun thought about it and decided to ask, "Shangguan Ze confessed in prison that the Wen Mansion was involved in the imperial examination fraud case. Is it related to you?"

Wen Qingyuan wanted to deny it.

Sun slapped him on the forehead and said, "Answer the truth!"

Wen Qingyuan lowered his head and nodded with a sense of grievance.

Sun was so angry that she almost exploded. "Is it really related to you? Are you in cahoots with Shangguan Ze?"

Wen Qingyuan nodded again.

Sun rolled up her sleeves and kicked him, "Nod, you only know how to nod, can't you just shake your head?"

Wen Qingyuan: "...Mom, you asked me to tell the truth."

"You!" Sun was so angry that she almost passed out in one breath.

Wen Qingyuan said bitterly, "Mom, this is not my fault, it was all Xiao Liangliang who instigated me.

The deceased Xiao Ziran was her biological brother. When I was with Xiao Liangliang, she kept telling me to help her brother. Now, I couldn't resist her nagging.

Shangguan Ze happened to come to me at that time, so I softened my heart and helped Xiao Ziran. "

"You are so confused!" Sun was shaking with anger. "What kind of person is Xiao Liangliang? You actually intervened in the imperial examination fraud case just because of a woman. You want to die, but the Wen family still wants to die.

Xiao Ziran is dead, Shangguan Ze is in prison, and now the Dali Temple has found out about our Wen Mansion. Do you think our Wen Mansion can stay out of this?

Your father is already very busy with this matter.

If this matter is proven, our Wen family will be confiscated and exiled."

Wen Qingyuan had not thought that the matter would be so serious. "It's not like there has been fraud in imperial examinations before. So many people bought and sold official positions, and they were fine.

Who knew this year would be so unlucky that the Emperor would suddenly investigate this matter?

Mother, don't worry. Isn't my sister a concubine in the palace? If it really doesn't work, can you ask my sister to help you ask for mercy?"

"Pah"

Sun slapped Wen Qingyuan directly on the face.

Wen Qingyuan felt extremely aggrieved. He felt that the beating he received today was more than any other beating he had received in the past seventeen years.

"Are you trying to kill your sister? Your sister is the only successful person in our family. You are such a loser. I am so angry."

"How about we go ask Dad?"

"Come back here! If your father knew you were involved in this, he would definitely kick you out. How dare you tell your father? You don't want this family anymore, right?"

Wen Qingyuan: "...I am not right in this or that, Mom, tell me what to do."

He was numb.

Now I'm hysterical.

"Keep it a secret from your father for now. The Dali Temple hasn't investigated the matter thoroughly yet. Wait for me to think of a solution for you."
