When Wei Wenxuan heard this news, his ears were ringing.
Why did he marry Princess Jing'an? Firstly, for the power of the Prince Huai's mansion, and secondly, to leave himself a noble bloodline.
Princess Jing'an was, after all, the daughter of Prince Huai, and her status was far higher than that of his former wife.
But who could have known that she couldn't have children?
The couple had a big fight over this.
Wei Wenxuan valued offspring very much, and he always wanted to have a son.
Princess Jing'an was the same.
Even though she couldn't have children, she never bowed her head in the slightest.
She said that if Wei Wenxuan dared to associate with other women, she would definitely break his lower leg.
Others might be joking, but when Princess Jing'an says something, it's absolutely true.
Wei Wenxuan witnessed Princess Jing'an feeding one of her former male lovers to dogs.
He had nightmares about this for several days.
However, his attitude towards Princess Jing'an cooled down.
What is there for him to be proud of if he marries a hen that can't lay eggs?
His father-in-law did help him by restoring his official position, but even with that, he was still just a fifth-rank civil official, unable to speak to any of the truly high-ranking officials.
Every time he went to the Hanlin Academy, people would look at him with pity.
Everyone knows he married a shrew.
Having children has become one of the pillars that support Wei Wenxuan's life.
Unexpectedly, reality didn't even grant him this small illusion.
Wei Wenxuan's attitude towards Princess Jing'an was not as good as before, but Princess Jing'an did not react.
As long as he doesn't go out and philander, she won't care what he does.
It doesn't matter if my heart isn't with her, as long as I'm physically with her.
She was busy looking for various medicines to treat her condition.
During her treatment, Wei Wenxuan was finally no longer required to share a room with her.
Wei Wenxuan doesn't have a single maidservant by his side now, but Princess Jing'an has granted him permission to live in the study, and he feels a strange joy.
These days were worse than being in prison; even in the study, I was happier than facing Princess Jing'an.
He had only been staying in the study for a few days when he learned of the death of his eldest daughter.
He stared at the line of text, his mind blank.
He had never liked Wei Jinxiu.
He had hoped for a son, but it turned out to be a daughter. He thought Jiang Yu would be able to have another son later, but she never conceived.
Later, after he had an affair with Aunt Chu, he became even more indifferent to Wei Jinxiu.
Wei Jinxiu, on the other hand, was even less worthy of his respect. She was extremely rude and had a very volatile temper, often causing trouble that left him, her father, to clean up her messes.
In Wei Wenxuan's heart, Wei Jinxiu was not as obedient and cute as his illegitimate daughter.
No matter how disobedient or unlovable they are, Wei Wenxuan and Wei Jinxiu are still father and daughter.
Having understood the meaning of the letter, Wei Wenxuan staggered out of the study and rode his horse to the estate where Jiang Tian lived.
Upon seeing his deceased daughter's remains, Wei Wenxuan was overcome with grief.
He couldn't help but burst into tears, yelling at Jiang Tian, "How did you take care of my child! You're such a vicious woman, you don't have any children of your own, yet you're trying to kill mine!"
Those nearby, hearing Wei Wenxuan's angry outburst, showed anger in their eyes.
Jiang Tian remained unmoved, staring at Wei Wenxuan: "If you truly care about your daughter, why haven't you taken her back home after so many days of marriage?"
