When Su Moyan came in, she didn't see her stepmother, so the maid Chunlan came to her silently.
Whispered in her ear.
"Miss, Madam has gone out with some ladies to relieve themselves."
Oh, so she went to the toilet. But it’s a good thing she’s not here.
Just as everyone was immersed in admiring the flowers, a maid came in hurriedly to report.
"Your Highness, there are strange noises coming from the guest room, but we are afraid of disturbing you, so we dare not go forward to check."
Princess Huayang waved her hand and led everyone to the guest rooms.
Su Moyan lowered her head and fell behind the crowd, so the Marquis's wife didn't notice her when she joined the crowd.
As soon as she entered the room, the Marquis's wife began to wail.
"Nanyue, how could you be so foolish? You have already taken away your elder sister's status, and yet His Majesty has granted you a marriage to His Royal Highness the War Prince."
"In order to consider the overall situation, your elder sister is willing to give up her status as the legitimate daughter to you. She is even willing to marry Mr. Luo in your place."
"But how can you still be entangled with Master Luo? From childhood to adulthood, you have always competed with your eldest sister for everything. Mother has never treated you as a concubine's daughter. She has always treated you and Mingyue equally."
The marquis's wife was still wailing, and the women who had accompanied her back from the toilet were whispering.
"I didn't expect it to be like this! How dare a concubine's daughter bully the legitimate daughter like this!"
"That's right. It seems this concubine's daughter is not simple. She usually keeps quiet, but with one move, she suppressed a daughter of a marquisate and reduced her to a concubine's daughter."
"She has to marry that poor scholar in her place. Miss An is so wronged!"
Of course, those who talked about it were just some women who had no vision and believed everything they heard.
The person who had been being talked about was clearly standing behind them, but those ladies were like blind and couldn't see him.
The other people around looked at Su Moyan with pity.
Maybe she felt sorry for her being schemed against by her stepmother. It was obvious that the person in the bed was not her, but the marquis's wife insisted on lying with her eyes open.
Princess Huayang interrupted their quarrels with a sharp voice. "What are your eyes for, you idiots? Why don't you open them and see who's on the bed?"
"Alright, if you keep making up stories about the future Princess Zhan, I'm going to the palace to ask my brother to make the decision for Miss An."
"Madam Hou, stop crying. Don't you even look at who is lying on the bed? You are just crying here with such a sad face."
The marquis's wife glanced at the bed and immediately collapsed to the ground in fright.
He murmured to himself:
"How could this happen? Why is it Yue'er?"
The two people who were still passionately entangled on the bed seemed to have woken up.
An Nanyue even exclaimed in surprise.
"ah…!"
Luo Ziqing also quickly pulled the quilt to cover the two of them.
Princess Huayang asked everyone to go back to the hall first, and told the servants to wait for the two men to be dressed and then bring them to the hall.
Soon the two men came to the hall, and An Nanyue knelt on the ground crying.
"Please, Your Highness, help me! I've been tricked."
Luo Ziqing received her eye signal, lowered his head, and immediately turned his head.
"Your Highness, this is all my fault. I am extremely grateful to be able to attend the flower viewing banquet at the Princess's residence today."
"At the banquet, I suddenly received a letter from my fiancée. Miss An Jiu asked me to go to the guest room to discuss the wedding. I also happened to have a lot of questions for her."
"But as soon as I walked in, I smelled a foul incense. What happened afterwards was not what the students intended."
Oh my, you are really good at passing the buck! It seems you are feeling wronged.
Princess Huayang asked in a long voice:
"Oh! You mean, your fiancée plotted against you?"
Luo Ziqing glanced towards Su Moyan in disappointment.
"Yes, but my fiancée is not Miss Mingyue in front of me. I know my own limitations and dare not have any thoughts about Miss Mingyue."
Of course Luo Ziqing pointed at Su Moyan without hesitation.
"Miss Nine, I know you look down on me and I know you despise my poverty, but the Marquis has already betrothed you to me, and I've told you I'll work hard in the future. Although I can't afford you silk and satin, or delicious food every day, I will ensure you have enough food to eat three times a day, and I won't let you go hungry."
"But why are you still plotting against us? If you really don't like me, you can tell me and I won't bother you anymore."
"Miss An is your legitimate sister. She is so noble and beautiful, so kind, and has always given in to you since she was a child. How could you be so cruel to hurt her? And you even took away her status as the legitimate daughter. You truly disappoint me!"
Everyone around her was waiting for her to explain, but before she could say anything, Princess Huayang roared angrily.
"How dare you, Miss An, a mere scholar like you, slander her so casually."
"Come here, drag him down and give him thirty lashes."
Seeing this scene, the discussions around them also quieted down.
Mu Yunchen always stood by her side. With him around, Su Moyan felt more at ease.
No matter how others doubt her identity, as long as the Marquis's Mansion insists that she is the legitimate daughter, then she is the legitimate daughter.
Su Moyan had already instructed Chunlan to call a doctor. As soon as the doctor came, the fact that An Nanyue was pregnant would be exposed. A daughter who got pregnant before marriage would bring shame to the Marquis' Mansion, so the Marquis' Mansion would of course choose her without hesitation as the daughter who could bring benefits to the Mansion.
"Miss, I have called the doctor."
As soon as the doctor came, Su Moyan immediately asked him to take An Nanyue's pulse.
