"And Marquis Yongyi, please don't come again. It doesn't reflect well on us, a widow and her orphan."
When Marquis Yongyi heard that Gu Yunrou was truly determined not to go back with him, he became a little anxious.
"Yunrou, I truly love you..."
"Sincerely?" Gu Yunrou scoffed coldly.
"Whether it's genuine or not, you know in your heart. What did you do when the Gu family fell into decline?"
They left Yang'er and me in the mansion to be bullied and ignored us, as if they wanted to completely sever ties with us.
I don't believe you didn't know that Aunt Wang poisoned Yang'er and used evil methods to steal Yang'er's luck and life force.
I don't believe you were unaware that she repeatedly hired assassins to kill my son and me.
I finally escaped that place; I'd be a fool to go back.
You keep claiming to be truly repentant, but isn't it really just because Yue'er has become emperor, and my family is about to rise again? You want to leverage the Gu family's influence but can't, so you're starting to panic!
"I......................."
"Don't say you didn't, don't say I don't believe you, not even a ghost would believe it."
I'm telling you, Shen Tingshan, mind your own business and the people in your household, and don't mess with me.
The reason I haven't dealt with that mother and child yet is simply because I haven't had the time.
"Once I have some free time, I'll definitely get my hands on her..."
Having been humiliated, Marquis Yongyi could only slink back to his residence.
When Aunt Wang heard that he had gone to see Gu Yunrou, she immediately became restless. Upon hearing that Shen Tingshan had returned to the mansion, she rushed to find him and demand an explanation.
Unfortunately, Aunt Wang was old and her beauty had faded, and Shen Tingshan had long lost patience with her. When he saw Aunt Wang throwing a tantrum and behaving in an unseemly manner, he simply kicked her to the ground.
Do you deserve to be a Marquis's wife?
Since you gave me a son, I'll treat you well.
Now, Gu Yunrou and her son disdain the position of the Marquis's heir. If you behave well, I will petition the emperor to make Xuan'er the heir.
You'd better tell him to avoid causing trouble lately. The reason I wasn't involved in the Liu family's affairs is because I haven't done anything for the Liu family.
However, Shen Muxuan had once loudly proclaimed himself to be the Third Prince, and he was so high-profile that he seemed afraid others wouldn't know.
The new emperor is too busy to deal with such a minor character, but if he acts recklessly and insists on becoming someone else's scapegoat, then he shouldn't blame me for disowning him as my son.
"Ha!" Aunt Wang was so angry at Shen Tingshan that she laughed.
"You don't acknowledge my Xuan'er?"
"Does the Marquis intend to have no successor?"
"What do you mean?" Marquis Yongyi's heart skipped a beat, and an idea instantly filled his mind.
"What do you mean by having no successor? This Marquis doesn't only have Shen Muxuan as his son."
Moreover, I am still young; it won't be difficult for me to take a few more wives and have a few more children."
Aunt Wang looked at Shen Tingshan with a sinister gaze.
"What if you can't have children?"
"What do you mean?" Shen Tingshan grabbed Wang Yiniang's collar, glaring at her angrily.
"Explain yourself, what did you do?"
"I didn't do anything. I just gave you some medicine."
By this time, Aunt Wang was already heartbroken and had lost all feelings for Shen Tingshan. She acted as if she were a dead pig that didn't care about boiling water.
When Aunt Wang gave birth to Shen Muxuan, the baby was too big, and she suffered a lot during childbirth. The doctor said that she had damaged her body and could not have children again.
