Ye Zhen woke up instantly and quickly got off Xie Tingzhou, saying, "Father."
seeing is believing.
Marquis Zhongyong believed it completely and snorted out.
Ye Zhen felt somewhat awkward.
She knew that the Marquis of Zhongyong would find out sooner or later, but she hadn't figured out how to explain it to him yet.
Ye Zhen cared about the Marquis of Zhongyong's opinion and did not want him to think that she was indecent.
"Father, I..."
Before he could even open his mouth, Xie Tingzhou spoke first.
"The person who saved me back then was Ye Zhenzhen. I had fallen for her a few years ago and had been searching for her ever since. After discovering her identity, I was the one who kept bothering her."
Marquis Zhongyong snorted again.
He had been worried that Ye Zhen would have an affair with a married woman, but it turns out he had his eye on Ye Zhen.
Ye Zhen does have a dead husband, doesn't she?
He foolishly sent people to keep an eye on them, and as a result, the two of them got together right under his nose.
He had previously said that if Xie Tingzhou brought his future daughter-in-law to him, he would give her all his savings.
At the time, he thought Xie Tingzhou's laughter was inexplicable, but now he realizes he was really stupid.
Ye Zhen was already in front of him.
Thinking that Xie Tingzhou had kept it completely from him, Marquis Zhongyong couldn't sleep after returning from the Wang family and waited here.
"I intend to make Consort Cui my principal wife. As the heir of the Marquis's mansion, shouldn't you show your support?"
If you can't beat him up to vent your anger, then squeeze more money out of him to support Tinglan in her old age.
Xie Tingzhou had just received a considerable sum from the old princess, so how could he be stingy with money? He smiled and said, "Alright."
"I will also express my gratitude."
Ye Zhen said weakly.
Marquis Zhongyong scoffed at her, "You don't need to pay. Young ladies should hold onto their own money and remember not to ask for too little in betrothal gifts when they get married."
Anyway, this guy is rich.
Ye Zhen nodded obediently, "It's all up to Father to make the decision. Father said that if Ye Zhen remarries in the future, she will leave the Marquis's mansion. You will always be Ye Zhen's father."
Marquis Zhongyong's heart softened instantly, realizing that he hadn't spoiled Ye Zhen in vain.
Then he thought, if Ye Zhen said that, wouldn't he be able to become the Crown Prince's father-in-law in the future?
A father-in-law is much more authoritative than a fake father, and can even take the opportunity to put his future son-in-law through a wringer.
He felt a little better instantly and snorted, "I'm your father, so of course I have to vet things for you."
Anyway, according to Yin Jiuniang, he's already on the same boat as the Crown Prince, so let's choose the most advantageous identity.
But the thought that Ye Zhen had also kept it from him still made him feel a little sour, and he couldn't let it go without causing some trouble.
So he gave her something to do: "You will accompany Yi Huan back to the Cui family today. Don't let anyone bully her."
Then, he walked away with his neck stiff.
Let's put this matter behind us.
Ye Zhen let out a long sigh of relief.
Yin Jiuniang watched from the rooftop next door, a slight smile playing on her lips. She hadn't been mistaken; the Marquis of Zhongyong was a good man.
However, the more help you receive, the better.
Since ancient times, wherever there is a dragon throne, there has been a struggle for succession. She did not believe that Prince Yun and Prince Ning were truly without ambition.
Even her ambitious but incompetent brother wanted to seize the Xuan Yin Pavilion that her father left her, let alone the empire.
Yin Jiuniang knocked on the door of the pawnshop again.
Zhen'er said that Shi Yan belongs to the Great Wei, and Xuan Yin Pavilion has already sent people there, but it's hard to say whether he can really become Zhen'er's help.
But once Xuan Yin Pavilion is back in her hands, she can make it work for Zhen'er. If the Crown Prince is defeated, she can take them and hide in the martial world.
Ye Zhen couldn't find Yin Jiuniang at the Marquis's residence, but he learned from Cui Yihuan that Yin Jiuniang was asking for marriage, and immediately understood his master's intention.
Touched by her master's affection for her, she felt she should work harder, so she sent a letter to Han Zijin, saying that it was time to close the net on the Wang family's side.
She couldn't delay finding a doctor for her master, so after spending time with Cui Yihuan, she went to find Physician Su.
With that in mind, Ye Zhen quickly got ready and went out with Cui Yihuan.
The Ye family.
The sound of Wang retching could be heard again.
Ever since she had a bite of shrimp porridge for breakfast, Ms. Wang has had an upset stomach and can't stand any strong smells.
Even her usual favorite incense made her stomach churn and caused her considerable discomfort.
Qian You patted her back, his eyes full of worry, "Madam, let me accompany you to see a doctor."
Wang shook her head.
She had a suspicion, but also felt it was impossible.
After resting for half an hour, he felt better and had someone bring him more food.
Before she could even pick up her chopsticks, the smell of fish and meat on the table made her stomach churn again.
Ms. Wang has given birth to two children and feels that her symptoms strongly suggest she is pregnant.
However, she had always used contraception when she was with Qian You.
Those determined to have Qian You's child will only have a few days left, and even if they are pregnant, they won't show symptoms so quickly.
Suddenly, she realized something and asked Qian You, "Did you forget to use that?"
Qian You was a little confused. "What?"
Wang pointed to a hidden table by the bedside, where small intestine casings were kept. She had bought them to use as contraception after she and Qian You got together.
Previously, she would keep an eye on Qian Youyong each time, but she couldn't keep an eye on him the whole time.
Qian Yousi then realized, "Does Madam mean that you might be pregnant?"
Wang stared at him. It was one thing for her to want a child, but it was another thing for Qian You to act cunningly on his own initiative.
Qian You felt a little scared under her gaze and quickly said, "Yes, I use it every time..."
He stammered, "It's just that once I was a bit reckless and slipped once. I wanted to use it again, but my wife thought I was being too slow and threw it away..."
Wang was reminded by him that once she had specially prepared a nourishing soup to go to Ye Zhengqing, but he refused to serve it to her.
Feeling humiliated, she sought out Qian You, driven by a desire for revenge. Her actions were somewhat extreme, but she allowed him to remain outside at crucial moments.
