Although the people around were discussing in a low voice, they could not stand so many people discussing, so all the noise was heard by Baili Yanqing and others.

Baili Yanqing's pupils suddenly shrank, and there was a faint gleam in her eyes as she looked at Zhou Zigu.

He couldn't hide the deep disgust for Song Nansheng in his eyes.

Baili Yanqing was so angry that he just flicked his sleeves and rushed out.

When the other young ladies and ladies saw that Baili Yanqing was so angry, they immediately fell silent and no one dared to speak anymore.

It was not until Baili Yanqing left that everyone could hear their own breathing again.

It was at this moment that Jiang Wanqing finally reacted belatedly.

He came in front of the crowd, bowed to them, with a guilty look on his face.

Then he said with a hint of pleading in his voice: "Ladies and ladies, I am sorry that I did not entertain you well at this Four Seasons Flower Festival and disturbed you all. I hope you can forgive me.

But what happened today is a family shame. I hope everyone will not publicize the incident. Wan Qing would like to thank everyone here.

I am sorry for not hosting you well today. After this period of time, I will hold another banquet as an apology to everyone. I hope you can come then.

It is getting late today, please go back first so I can take care of my family affairs, and I will not bid you farewell."

What Jiang Wanqing meant was that the guests should go back first.

However, some guests obviously wanted to stay and read the gossip.

It’s a pity that Jiang Wanqing has already let them see what they should see, and the rest has to be handled privately.

Besides, Baili Yanqing has already left, so there is absolutely no need for others to stay.

All the ladies left the house reluctantly.

Jiang Wanqing looked at the maids not far away and ordered, "Why don't you go and see the ladies off."

The maids saw the young ladies off.

Soon, only people from the Marquis of Xingchang's Mansion remained in the room.

The crowd dispersed, and Jinniang stood in her original position, still somewhat conspicuous.

Jinniang slowly took a few steps forward.

Looking up at Zhou Zigu, he sneered, "I thought you were different from those nobles. I have worked hard to take care of you for so long, but you have been having an affair with your cousin's husband right under my nose? I have only been with you for a short time, and you are taking a new concubine so soon!"

Jinniang's eyes were full of disappointment.

Zhou Zigu didn't care about it. He had no feelings for Jinniang.

He just frowned and said, "When you came to me, you already knew that I have a wife."

Jinniang sneered, "So, you think that since you already have a wife, it's okay to have a hundred concubines?"

Zhou Zigu frowned and said, "That's unreasonable! If you don't want to stay in the Xingchang Marquis's Mansion, then go back to your mountain. You are so shameless that you insist on staying here!"

When Jinniang heard this, her face turned sad and she was about to leave.

Madam Zhou said, "Jinniang, wait a moment."

Jinniang stopped, turned her head and looked at Old Madam Zhou in confusion.

But then I heard Madam Zhou say, "The doctor hasn't come yet, please feel Nan Sheng's pulse first to see if she is really pregnant."

Jinniang was speechless and just turned around and left.

But Zhou Zigu didn't even glance at Jinniang.

Baili Yanqing is no longer here, so Zhou Zigu no longer pretends.

He stared at Song Nansheng with a cold look in his eyes.

But since Jiang Wanqing is here, it’s not easy to ask anything.

It was Old Madam Zhou who spoke for Song Nansheng and was the first to speak: "Wanqing, you also know what kind of reputation Nansheng has now. I'm afraid that after Zi Gu's death, no one will want Nansheng anymore. Keeping her as Zi Gu's concubine will not have any impact on you. I think I will make the decision on this matter and let Nansheng be Zi Gu's concubine.

If you agree to this, I will…I will not pursue the matter. You insisted on holding this Four Seasons Flower Fair today, and all these things happened. "

Jiang Wanqing had no objection to taking a concubine.

But, for the sake of face, I still have to pretend.

Jiang Wanqing suddenly looked aggrieved.

She opened her mouth and said, "Mother-in-law, I organized this four-season flower show because I wanted to meet the ladies and wives of the imperial ministers. It will also be helpful to my husband's career in the future.

Did you see that I had held any banquets before my husband came back? Didn’t I do all this for my husband and for the Xingchang Marquisate? "

After a pause, Jiang Wanqing choked up again, looked at Zhou Zigu, and complained: "If you really have feelings for Sister Nan Sheng, then just say it directly, and I will not marry you and take Sister Nan Sheng's place, delaying your relationship.

Now, they have to make this matter known to everyone. This time, the reputation of the Xingchang Marquisate will be lost!"

At the end, a hint of dissatisfaction appeared on Jiang Wanqing's face.

It was obvious that she was really angry about this matter.

Zhou Zigu looked at Jiang Wanqing with a complicated expression, his eyes flashing.

After hesitating for a moment, he said, "Wanqing, my relationship with my cousin happened after I came back. Before that, I really had no other feelings for her. I only regarded you as my wife."

Jiang Wanqing groaned angrily.

He sighed and said, "You guys pack up. I'll go get a doctor for Nan Sheng. If Nan Sheng really has your child, she won't be wronged."

After saying that, Jiang Wanqing turned around and left.

Old Madam Zhou also sent her maids away. Now, only Song Nansheng, Old Madam Zhou and Zhou Zigu were left in the room.

With no outsiders present, Zhou Zigu got off the bed shirtless, picked up his clothes and put them on.

Then he came to Song Nansheng, who was still standing there in a daze, looking sad.

Zhou Zigu reached out and touched Song Nansheng's cheek, with a hint of heartache in his eyes, and asked softly, "Does it still hurt?"

Old Madam Zhou, who was standing by, touched her nose somewhat unnaturally.

She didn't know whether Song Nansheng's face hurt, but her hand was definitely hurt from hitting him just now.

Hearing Zhou Zigu's soft voice, the grievance in Song Nansheng's heart was suddenly magnified tenfold.

She bit her lip, looked at Zhou Zigu, and finally cried out: "Brother Zigu, you have fallen in love with the princess a long time ago, right?"

Zhou Zigu sighed deeply, feeling powerless.

He explained: "I've said it before, I was just playing around with them. Why can't you just trust me for once?"
