The Legend of the Concubine in the Harem

As soon as Lu Weiyuan finished speaking.

Mrs. Guan's face immediately turned bad: "So what? The sisters here don't come here just for men. Do you think they are dirty like some people do?"

"I just think this place is not a place for people to stay." Lu Weiyuan said.

She discovered that this "Mrs. Guan" had a great talent for making unreasonable arguments and was gifted in how to fabricate charges against others and then belittle and suppress them.

"Yes, this is indeed not a place for women...but we have no choice." Madam Guan's expression was relatively relaxed, but she clenched the handkerchief in her hand tightly. "We are not like you who are supported by men and can say such things easily. If you lose your father's love and fall into my situation, that would be..."

Lu Weiyuan interrupted her and asked, "Madam, do you know the two sisters Xiang Caizhi and Xiang Xiezhi?"

Mrs. Guan's expression suddenly changed again, and suddenly became a little ferocious: "Why are you talking to me about these two irrelevant people?"

"Hey, how can you say it's irrelevant? We are dear sisters."

"......" Madam Guan, or Xiang Zhenzhi, was silent for a moment, and suddenly had an ominous premonition that she was out of control. She said with a cold face, "Oh, she even found out such a thing. She is worthy of being raised by a man. Her mind is really vicious. My two poor sisters were harmed by a man, and they died like this..."

Lu Weiyuan interrupted her again: "Madam, it seems that you know my identity very well. Then I can't be polite. I just want to ask you one thing. When your two sisters fell into the brothel, it happened that your family was vindicated. In addition, the Wuwei Marquis Mansion was not defeated at that time. According to common sense, it should be easy to rescue them. Why did you loudly denounce the men for harming them, but didn't even go to the riverside to worship the dead?"

".....If they want to be more motivated, they should save themselves instead of waiting for others to save them. That's what little women do." Mrs. Guan suddenly realized that the rhythm of the conversation seemed to be controlled by Lu Weiyuan. She gritted her teeth and wanted to bring the topic back unwillingly.

"Although you are..."

However, this time Madam Guan didn't finish her words, and it was Mi Nian who interrupted her: "The woman you mentioned who doesn't know how to save herself is not someone who doesn't want to save herself, but someone who can't save herself. But even so, she saved someone weaker than herself!"

"I'm afraid she saved a man. After staying in the brothel for so long, she must have been trained to treat men as her own, unlike me..." Mrs. Guan took over the conversation angrily, and then was about to change the subject and continue with what she wanted to say just now.

Mi Nian's voice became colder and harder: "She saved me."

Madam Guan was stunned, then ecstatic: "You? Although you are a woman, you imitate men in everything. What's the difference between saving you and saving a man? She has become a prostitute and still wants to save a man. She deserves that fate, unlike me..."

"Madam, what you said is quite novel." Lu Weiyuan cooperated and did not give her a chance to change the subject. "I heard from someone on the way here that after Madam took charge of this place, she divided the power in the hands of the original housekeeper and entrusted part of the management power to the eunuch in the building..."

Mrs. Guan was interrupted by them one after another, and her mood gradually began to become irritable. She felt that she had lost face in front of her subordinates, so she seized the opportunity and interrupted Lu Weiyuan's words as if she had turned the tables: "I am too lazy to care about men. Men, oh, they are all men. Whether they live or die is none of my business. I only need to take good care of women. Men's affairs have nothing to do with me. Only those who want to become men themselves will compete with men for everything!"

"It turns out that the people who come here are all men looking for men to serve them, and women looking for women to serve them!" Lu Weiyuan raised his hands, clapped his palms together, and said in an admiring tone.

The expression on Mrs. Guan's face changed again and again. She glanced behind Lu Weiyuan and the others, and her tone became more and more urgent: "...What do you know? They are men, men...Do you expect them to treat the women in the brothel well? They are men, men are like that, they can't be taught, and they can't change. You should pay more attention to women and let them know what is right and wrong..."

"I understand." Lu Weiyuan put away the smile on his face, "What the madam means is - 'I can't control men, but can I control you?'"

"You--" Mrs. Guan could certainly hear the sarcasm in her words, but she was unwilling to admit her own inferiority no matter what. She was about to argue again and delay time to wait for reinforcements to arrive.

Lu Weiyuan clapped his hands twice again: "Just now I was hesitating about something and couldn't be sure. Thank you, Madam, for finally helping me to confirm it."

Mrs. Guan subconsciously followed her words and asked, "What's the matter?"

Lu Weiyuan smiled slyly: "Since Madam knows my identity, she must have heard a lot of rumors about my origins."

Before she was born, Xie Yuzhen, in order to create momentum and make the emperor pay more attention to their daughter, fabricated the illusion that Lu Weiyuan was the reincarnation of Xuannv.

Later, Lu Weiyuan's series of extraordinary behaviors made many people believe this lie.

Mrs. Guan is no exception.

"I have heard that there is a strange disease in the world. Although the patient's body appears to be a woman, he is actually a man inside. It's just that people can't see his true appearance with their naked eyes, so they are deceived by the appearance and think he is a woman."

"Is this disease really true?" The identity of the person who said this made Mrs. Guan doubtful.

Lu Weiyuan said calmly, "Of course, as long as this disease is cured, the person's original gender will be revealed. I have only heard of it before, but have never seen such a patient. I thought I might not have the chance to see this miracle in this lifetime, but I didn't expect to meet my wife."

"You mean..." Mrs. Guan's eyes moved rapidly and she blinked several times. "I was born a woman because of this disease. I..."

"Yes ma'am."

Lu Weiyuan said with a smile: "This disease can be cured. Once it is cured, Madam can become a man."

After hearing this, Mrs. Guan couldn't help but smile with joy: "Doesn't that mean - I can be a father too?!"
