The Marquis of Zhenbei burst into tears from the pain.
Fresh blood dripped, drop by drop, onto the dusty ground.
Seeing this, the old lady felt sorry for her son and helped him up.
"Ye Lanyin, you poisonous woman!"
"You're murdering your husband!"
"How could our Lin family have married such an ungrateful wretch like you?"
"Murder?" Ye Lanyin sneered, her sinister gaze glaring fiercely at them. She then threw the letter at the Marquis of Zhenbei's face. "Zou Shuang'er and you deserve to die more than murder!"
"You cowardly cling to life, deceiving me terribly and ruining my youth!"
"The child I gave birth to after surviving countless deaths, how could you bear to throw it into a mass grave?"
"There are gods watching from above, Lin Dehong, you deserve to be struck by lightning!"
As soon as Ye Lanyin finished speaking, the originally bright sky was instantly swallowed up by thick dark clouds, as if Heaven was responding to this injustice with indignation.
Immediately following was a thunderstorm with lightning and a sudden surge of wind and clouds.
"Boom—boom—" one after another.
Along with the rivers and seas surrounding the Holy Kingdom, they were raging wildly, churning and surging, with layers of waves creating towering storms and violently sweeping through the wind.
It was as if the ocean was roaring, howling at this injustice.
The thunder was deafening, piercing eardrums.
People from neighboring countries all took refuge in their homes.
"Quick, hide! It looks like a downpour is coming."
As soon as the sound fell, the adults present, along with their families, hurriedly ran to the corridor to take shelter from the rain.
The old lady seemed momentarily dazed.
See? Even the gods are on the side of the Lin family.
It's easy to imagine how vicious Ye Lanyin was.
The Marquis of Zhenbei was so shocked by the scene that he could not recover for a long time.
Was he wrong?
Was he really wrong?
Is it really the gods punishing him?
The Marquis of Zhenbei picked up the letter from his face and began to read it carefully.
The document records everything that happened during Ye Lanyin's childbirth, as well as Zou Shuang'er's repeated acts of illicit relations with the Marquis's mansion over the years, disguised as a maid.
He suddenly raised his head and looked at Ye Lanyin in horror.
"You...how could you..."
Ah Xiang walked to the opposite side of Zhenbei Marquis and squinted at the old lady who looked dazed not far away.
Surprised?
“If you hadn’t cruelly killed my mother-in-law, I wouldn’t have known any of this.”
"My mother-in-law served you all for decades with great care, only to die at the hands of your Lin family. If my husband knew this in the afterlife, he would haunt you even in death!" she almost roared.
He poisoned his wife and left her alone in a thatched hut on their wedding night.
"Only you know best how these children came to be!"
Everyone was shocked.
So, were Madam Ye's children poisoned?
Amidst a series of schemes and betrayals, she falls into a vortex of false happiness.
Finally, for the sake of the Marquis of Zhenbei, he tolerated his mistress entering the mansion.
So it turns out it was all meticulously planned over many years?
Are they the real family?
The people who pondered this felt a chill run down their spines and shook their heads.
The eldest princess and others stood by Ye Lanyin's side, comforting her as she broke down.
Even though she already knew these things, Ye Lanyin was still heartbroken when they were exposed to everyone.
She chose this method to make the matter public.
She would rather her child's origins remain unknown than acknowledge this beast as his father.
This creates a loophole that can be exploited to manipulate her children in the future, using filial piety as a pretext.
In her past life, she owed several children something.
In this lifetime, she cannot, she absolutely cannot let her child have any connection with the Lin family.
Despite the pain in his hand, the Marquis of Zhenbei said angrily, "No, I didn't poison her. I didn't frame Lanyin."
"It was one of the servants in the manor who did it; I've already dealt with him!"
"I have never hurt Lanyin. I was heartbroken when I found out about this, but I was afraid of upsetting Madam, so I didn't say anything."
"Lanyin, please believe me..."
"Slap!" Ye Lanyin slapped the Marquis of Zhenbei hard across the face.
Given the shamelessness of the Marquis of Zhenbei, he will surely try to shirk all responsibility.
"Pooh!"
Do you think I'll still believe you?
The old lady's eyes flashed with hatred, and she trembled with rage: "Ye Lanyin, how dare you hit my son?"
Look at this old woman, she only allows her son to hurt others.
Lin Wanwan clicked her tongue inwardly and muttered a few words of disapproval.
"What does the old lady want to do? Fight back?" Ye Lanyin stared directly into her eyes.
"He wouldn't dare!" Ye Wennan said, then stepped forward with a dagger to protect Ye Lanyin.
The old lady and the Marquis of Zhenbei were so frightened that they kept backing away.
Madam Sheng finally understood why Ye Lanyin wanted to buy the estate and why she suddenly agreed to the Marquis of Zhenbei taking a concubine.
It turns out she already knew.
Ignoring her husband's objections, she walked to Zou Shuang'er's side.
He raised his hand and swung it hard.
"Smack!"
"ah--"
Madam Sheng retorted angrily, "I don't have such a good temper."
"You bitch!"
"If you dare to bully Lanyin, you're bullying us!"
"You're exploiting loopholes in the law, I'll kill you!"
"Go ahead and report it to the authorities if you dare!"
"Many adults are here today, go and report me to the authorities!"
Upon hearing this, the ministers all turned away, pretending not to have seen anything.
Zou Shuang'er was hit several times in a row, but no one protected her.
Madam Sheng glanced at Lin Wanwan in Hua Xin's hand.
"Tianfeng, bite her to death!"
Tenhou? ? ?
Mine has a chicken beak; it won't kill anyone.
Lin Wanwan stretched out her chubby hand and pushed Tianfeng to the ground, and Tianfeng jumped directly onto Zou Shuang'er.
