I'm truly sorry for accidentally disturbing Miss Ye's sleep.
They apologized verbally, but there was no sincerity in their apology.
Ye Wantang's series of reactions exposed her pretense.
After considering the context, it wasn't hard for everyone to guess that what Shen Bishui said was true, and that it was Ye Wantang who really instructed her to climb into bed and frame Ye Zhen.
Coincidentally, Xie Tingzhou sarcastically remarked that her feigned fainting was actually sleeping, which caused many people to chuckle.
Some lamented that Ye Jinghong's daughter didn't resemble her at all, while others boldly speculated that if the palace knew what Ye Wantang had done today, would they cancel her marriage to the Crown Prince...
Ye Wantang prided herself on being calm and shrewd, but after years of smooth sailing, she had never experienced such an embarrassing situation. Faced with everyone's ridicule, she didn't even bother to cause trouble for Xie Tingzhou, and fled in panic with her cheeks burning.
In the end, they reaped what they sowed.

It is also called doubt about life.
Is there really anyone in this world who would slander their own daughter to protect the reputation of an outsider?

Therefore, it is said, "The Marquis's mansion will always be your home, and I will always be your father."
He found Wang's remarks utterly absurd.
I can't understand how anyone in this world could not love their own child.
However, he had been taught by the old Marquis since childhood that women are very complex creatures, and men should focus their thoughts and energy on important matters and not waste time trying to guess what women are thinking.
Therefore, he didn't care what Wang thought, but instead pondered how to deal with his daughter after the guests left.
He was clueless about women's thoughts, but he was skilled in military strategy and tactics. He could see that Ye Wantang had used Xie Jinyao, intending to take advantage of her.
But his foolish daughter knew nothing of this.
