Just as Ouyang Yuming was worried about the fetus in his womb, the Zhaoyang Palace was also plunged into a gloomy atmosphere.
"Shangguan Yuechan, you bitch!" In the Yaoyue Palace, Su Mutianjun angrily slapped the imperial concubine whom he had favored for many years.
"Your Majesty, why do you say that? Could it be that you also believed the rumors and think that Jing'er is not your and my biological child?" Shangguan Yuechan covered her face with the burning red mark from her five fingers, and looked at the man in front of her with a hurt face, wearing an imperial robe and looking down at her condescendingly.
Over the past month, a nursery rhyme about a green-headed turtle has been circulating in the capital of Zhaoyang State. The rhyme's content hints at the unclear relationship between the current Imperial Noble Consort Shangguan Yuechan and the Imperial Preceptor Ran Qiyue, and that the Sixth Prince Su Mulijing is actually Ran Qiyue's biological son.

"Your Majesty, the Imperial Master has arrived and is waiting in the side hall." At this time, the chief eunuch Qu Chengde came in to report.
"Ran-Qi-yue! You came just in time!" Su Mutianjun said gritting his teeth.
When Su Mutianjun thought that his favorite minister and concubine had actually had an affair and even gave birth to an illegitimate child, he couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.
