The wife of Marquis Wu'an returned home and knelt before the old marquis, crying with snot and tears, she was completely heartbroken.

"Father, Marquis, if Prince Duan had not arrived in time today, not to mention Lin Wan'er and Lu Jingting, even the Marquis of Jingning would have been in big trouble!"

"You two didn't see that King Dingyuan's face was as black as charcoal!"

"Princess Changle, oh no, it's Princess Dingyuan, her face is as cold as ice."

"The Fifth Princess wields the whip so steadily and fiercely that every lash draws blood!"

The old marquis was extremely anxious, "How is Wan'er? Did you ask for a doctor?"

The wife of Marquis Wu'an hiccupped and said, "Prince Dingyuan ordered that one of Lin Wan'er's ears be cut off and one of Lu Jingting's eyes be gouged out, and then they were made to swallow them alive!"

"what?!"

The old marquis patted his chest and coughed, pointing at the wife of Marquis Wu'an and cursing: "Are you dead?!"

"Don't you know how to stop it a little?"

"Wan'er was abducted by kidnappers when she was little and sold as a slave. She has suffered so much!"

"Now that I have finally found my roots, why don't you take better care of me?"

"Even though I can't recognize him openly, outsiders don't know. Don't you understand?!"

"That's your own niece!"

Today, the wife of Marquis Wu'an was first frightened out of her wits, then she almost lost her life, and was even beaten out of the house by the wife of Marquis Jingning. She lost all her dignity and face!

Now her father-in-law is accusing her of not protecting Lin Wan'er? !

It's really like Zhu Bajie looking in the mirror, neither human inside nor outside.

She was so angry that she simply stopped crying and kneeling, and just sat back.

"Father-in-law, then tell me, how should I protect my daughter-in-law at that time?"

"Should I curse Princess Dingyuan with her or lie on top of her and take the whipping for her?!"

"Or should I cut off my ear and apologize to King Dingyuan?"

“Or kneel down and kowtow until you don’t know which way is which and bleed from your head?!”

"If you were there, would you dare?!"

"How dare you!" The old marquis glared at her, "Is this the attitude and tone you, a daughter-in-law, should use when talking to your father-in-law?!"

"Is it something a father-in-law should do to let his daughter-in-law go forward knowing that it's a dead end?!"

"you!"

"Father-in-law, I should ask myself, even if I am not as close to Lin Wan'er as I am to Concubine Wan, I care about her enough, right?"

"Not only did he give her everything she wanted, but he also always considered her. Otherwise, how could Lu Ze enter the White Deer Academy?!"

"But don't forget that your daughter-in-law has two biological sons. They are your legitimate grandsons!"

"For Lin Wan'er's sake, are you going to force me to death and then my two children to death?!"

"lady!"

Marquis Wu'an couldn't bear it any longer and could only shout to stop his wife.

"My Lord, I'm going to make this clear today. From now on, whether Lin Wan'er lives or dies has nothing to do with me!"

"If you can't bear it, just write me a divorce letter!"

The wife of Marquis Wu'an was so angry that she convulsed. "I will file a complaint with the emperor even at the cost of my life!"

Marquis Wu'an looked at his wife with a sullen face, and knowing that she was really angry, he stopped scolding her.

After all, even he himself didn't like Lin Wan'er.

Although that woman looked exactly like Concubine Wan, the word "treacherous" was engraved on her face and her reputation was extremely bad.

The key is that she is unruly and ignorant. If he were a sensible man, he would definitely find a wealthy family to marry her to and ensure that she lives safely until old age.

But she was the other way around, clamoring to be Lu Jingting's concubine.

He looks scheming, but he's actually just a fool!

The old marquis was even more foolish. For such a person, he sacrificed the future of his descendants.

He sighed and gave Lady Wu'an Hou a soothing look.

Then he said to the old marquis gently: "Father, please calm down first."

"Fortunately, Prince Duan arrived in time today. Although Wan'er suffered a little, she is still alive."

The old marquis slapped away the tea handed to him by Wu Anhou and said, "What are you talking about?!"

"Being whipped and having one's ears cut off is suffering?!"

"Wan'er was abducted by kidnappers when she was young and sold to the Zhennan Palace as a slave. She suffered so much hardship and suffering."

"As for you, you have been clothed in fine clothes and fed with delicious food, surrounded by servants, and you don't even have to wear your own clothes!"

"..."

Marquis Wu'an kept his mouth shut, knowing that his father was going to bring up old matters again.

Since he is the eldest son and has inherited the title, he should accept it.

The wife of Marquis Wu'an was unhappy.

"Father-in-law, I don't agree with what you said!"

"Lin Wan'er's suffering was not caused by the Marquis, not by me, and certainly not by my sons!"

"You feel sorry for her and are partial to her, I won't say anything."

"But you can't step on our lives!"

"If Prince Dingyuan insists on punishing them today, my daughter-in-law's life will be in danger."

"Wouldn't my sons then become motherless children?"

"I didn't cause Lin Wan'er's suffering, but she did cause my sons' suffering!"

Marquis Wu'an felt a little distressed when he saw the hatred in his wife's eyes.

When I think of my two legitimate sons...

"Father, it's not that I don't love Wan'er. But even if Wan'er has good roots, she has grown into a crooked person."

"She climbed into Lu Jingting's bed by any means necessary, gave birth to a son and a daughter for him without any name or status, secretly tried to kill the mistress at the time, Princess Changle, and later burned Lu Zhan to death."

"All these things show that she is a cruel and merciless person who will do anything."

"A person like this, with a bad reputation, a lost innocence, and a lot of lives on her hands, you still want your son to hold her in his hands and love her, is that possible?"

"You are the grandfather, but she is not the only granddaughter you have!"

The old marquis glared at Marquis Wu An, "So what do you mean? Do you want to just give up and let her fend for herself?"

"And you!" He pointed at the wife of Marquis Wu'an, "Don't you want to take care of it either?"

The wife of Marquis Wu'an closed her mouth and turned her head away.

Marquis Wu'an also remained silent.

The old marquis was so angry that he threw away the teapot and ornaments beside him and kept beating his legs.

"It's all because of my uselessness! I'm paralyzed in bed and can't do anything!"

"I couldn't protect my precious daughter back then, and now I can't protect her child either!"

"How can I continue to live? I might as well just die!"

The wife of Marquis Wu'an curled her lips. Here he goes again. For Lin Wan'er, this old man does this every now and then.

If only I could really bear to die, my home would be peaceful.

Lin Wan'er is a piece of shit, and the old marquis is the stick that stirs it up!

Wu Anhou felt a pain in his heart, and immediately knelt on the ground in fear and trepidation: "Father, you are trying to force your son to death!"

The wife of Marquis Wu'an rolled her eyes and said, "My Lord, it's all my fault. I really don't have the face to live on any longer. Please take good care of the two children!"

As soon as she finished speaking, she crashed into a pillar beside her, and blood gushed out instantly.
