Shen Zhiyi casually tossed out a sentence, causing everyone to gasp in shock.
His gaze swept over Lin Yaoyao and the two children, taking them in one look.
"This...this can't be right." After a few seconds of silence, a heated discussion broke out in the crowd.
"Even Song Yuxiu has been diagnosed with a disease that prevents him from having children, so what is impossible?"
"The boy does look somewhat like Song Yuxiu, so he must be his biological son."
...
Even the Empress Dowager, who was well-informed and usually calm and composed, showed a clear look of surprise on her face and frowned slightly. "Zhiyi, you can't just say things like that."
"Your Majesty, I was merely raising reasonable doubts given that Song Yuxiu is infertile," Shen Zhiyi said expressionlessly.
"I believe the Marquis's mansion also does not want to be taken advantage of at this time."
"It has confused the bloodlines of the Marquis's family."
The Song family seemed to only come to their senses at this moment.
Especially Song Yuxiu, who shook his head, "Shen Zhiyi, you are so vicious! It must be you who caused me to have no heir. Now you are even smearing Yaoyao and the two children. You are as heartless as a snake!"
"I always thought you were gentle and generous, I never imagined you could be so vicious!"
He had originally intended to deceive Shen Zhiyi into having no heir, but now it had become true. He was furious and rushed over to kill her.
But he forgot...
Shen Zhiyi was still clutching the Regent's sword in her hand!
She drew her sword!
It pointed directly at Song Yuxiu's chest.
"Young Master Song, if you dare to go any further, don't blame me for being ruthless." Her expression was extremely cold.
"Shen Zhiyi, do you really intend to murder your husband in front of the Empress Dowager, the Prince, and all the guests?!" Madam Chen jumped out, her neck slashed, and she was covering the bleeding spot with a handkerchief.
"These two children are the bloodline of our Marquis's mansion. You have caused my son to die out and you still spout nonsense in public. You filthy, rotten-hearted wretch."
"Do you want these two children to be unable to face anyone when they grow up?"
Lin Yaoyao seemed to be in a state of extreme shock, her hands tightly gripping the dress at her sides, her body trembling violently, and her delicate face was deathly pale.
Because of excessive force, her fingernails pierced through her dress and dug into her palm.
When their eyes inadvertently met Chen Zhiyi's, a chill ran through them.
she……
Do you know something?
After she recovered from her shock, she knelt down before the Empress Dowager and pleaded, "Your Majesty, I beg you to do justice for me. It's one thing for the Crown Prince's wife to send people to kill me, but she also slandered my child's innocence. She's trying to force me to my death!"
“It doesn’t matter if she hurts me, but the two children are still so young. How could she bear to smear them?”
“I know I come from a poor family, but I am a good woman raised by a respectable family. Even if she is the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, she cannot demean and slander me like this.”
"I'd rather be dead."
Wen Qing suddenly spoke up: "This young lady, a girl from a good family would not have an affair without a matchmaker and secretly become pregnant."
"you……"
“If you really want to die, find a secluded place and hang yourself with a rope. This pretentious act probably means you don’t really want to die.” Wen Qing didn’t say much.
Yet, the words themselves are piercing to the heart!
Lin Yaoyao bit her lip, "That's because the prince and I are in love with each other."
"If he truly loved you, he should have married you properly and brought you into his family, instead of letting you and your two children live like rats in the gutter, unable to see the light of day!" Shen Zhiyi sneered.
"He may have some feelings for you, but he loves..."
"It's still about power, and himself!"
"Stop trying to sow discord between me and the prince." Lin Yaoyao gritted her teeth. "You're just jealous that I've won the prince's favor."
"Bad woman!" Yingge couldn't hold back any longer when he saw his mother crying pitifully.
He took out a slingshot, fired a pebble, and it flew towards Chen Zhiyi, hitting her. "I'll kill you! I'm going to kill you!"
The Empress Dowager gave him a cold look, and the wet nurse hurriedly took the slingshot from his hand.
The Song family members were trembling with fear. "The Empress Dowager is easily angered. Ying-ge is still young and his behavior is improper. We will definitely discipline and discipline him strictly in the future."
"Bad, she's bad—"
Yingge didn't care about anything else. He broke free from his wet nurse's restraints again, rushed to Shen Zhiyi, and started hitting her.
"Get out of my way!" Hongrui wasn't going to tolerate him and pushed him away.
Ying Ge fell to the ground with a thud.
She then burst into tears.
He was even shouting, "Kill her! Kill her!"
"Bad woman!"
"Father, Father, kill her."
...
He lay on the ground, throwing a tantrum.
The Song family members rushed forward to calm things down, and the situation briefly spiraled out of control.
Madam Chen was furious. Fearing the sword in Shen Zhiyi's hand, she only dared to glare at Hongrui, "You damned thing, are you blind? How dare you push our Marquis's young master."
“Young Prince?” Shen Zhiyi chuckled softly. “Have I acknowledged him? Even if he really is Song Yuxiu’s child, he is now just an illegitimate child without any status or identity.”
"Chen Zhiyi!" Song Ruoying was furious.
At this moment, Zhou Xuance's deep voice rang out again in everyone's ears: "At such a young age, you dare to speak recklessly, shouting for war and death."
"If the child is registered under the name of the Shen family girl today, then she will be the child's legal mother!"
"Disrespecting and even physically attacking his stepmother? Is this the kind of child your Marquis's mansion has raised?"
"This guy... is he even fit to be the future crown prince?"
The Regent's words caused the Song family members to turn pale again, and even the old lady was terrified.
With these words, it's likely that Ying Ge's path to becoming the heir apparent will be blocked.
Meanwhile, Ying Ge was holding Lin Yao Yao and crying. Song Mao Zhang was furious and scolded in a low voice, "Stop crying! Hurry up and take him away. Leaving him here is embarrassing."
