The regent is a yandere who needs to be pampered

Chapter 32: Hypocritical Hypocrites

Nan Xi did not lie about Nan Yue's pregnancy, nor did she deliberately wrongly accuse Gu Qingshu and Nan Yue.

At this time in her previous life, she did not know that when she was trapped and endured the burden in the Regent's Mansion, Nan Yue had already been in love with Gu Qingshu.

Just like the marriage between two countries, the relationship between them is stronger when they become a family, and they can trust each other more when they cooperate. Nan Yue took advantage of Gu Qingshu's relationship to bring her mother, who was born in a brothel, into the Prime Minister's Mansion to recognize her ancestors and become a legitimate concubine's daughter in the Prime Minister's Mansion, ranking second.

And Gu Qingshu married Nan Yue and was still the son-in-law of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

This is a win-win cooperation.

At this time in Nan Yue's previous life, she had actually committed herself to Gu Qingshu. Just a few days after entering the Prime Minister's Mansion, Nan Yue and Gu Qingshu both knelt in front of the Prime Minister and confessed that they were pregnant and married with a baby.

Naturally, the Prime Minister would never leak such a shameful scandal, so Nan Xi was kept in the dark. When she learned the news, almost a year had passed, and Nan Yue's child was almost a month old.

As for whether Nan Yue was pregnant in these two days, Nan Xi was not sure, but judging from Gu Qingshu's hasty and guilty reaction, it was a foregone conclusion that the two had had physical contact, and there was no room for quibbling.

With so many onlookers, what happened today would soon spread throughout the streets and alleys. Didn't Gu Qingshu claim to be affectionate? Didn't he claim to be a gentleman?

She wanted to see what choice Gu Qingshu would make after knowing that Nan Yue had no chance to step into the Prime Minister's Mansion and could not become the second daughter of the Nan family.

"Nan Yue is just a concubine's daughter." She said in a light tone, "My father is the prime minister of the current dynasty. He has always valued his reputation and it is impossible for him to bring a concubine's daughter into the family. So you can change your words in the future. She is not the second daughter of the Nan family."

"Does the prime minister value his reputation?" A man smiled, "Yes, that's right. After all, he is the most favored prime minister in front of the emperor. Of course, he must have a harmonious family and a clean family. Of course, he can't bring any messy people into the family."

Nan Xi looked at the person who spoke, smiled lightly, and turned to enter Mobaozhai.

Of course, she knew what the man meant by his expression. If her father really valued his reputation, he would not have liked a brothel girl, and he also let this brothel girl get pregnant with his child. This is simply... No scholar would do such a thing.

So Nan Xi felt that her father was really a hypocritical hypocrite who said one thing and did another behind his back.

"What does Miss Nan want to see?"

Nan Xi's eyes fell on the Duan inkstone that the shopkeeper had just introduced. "This is the carving of a fish leaping over the dragon gate. Are there any other ones?"

"What kind does Miss Nan want?"

Nan Xi pondered for a moment and wanted to say that she wanted a five-clawed golden dragon, but she was worried that she would scare the shopkeeper to death if she said it, so she said calmly: "Auspicious dragon and phoenix."

The shopkeeper was immediately suspicious when he heard this. Didn't Miss Nan just break up her engagement with Gu Qingshu? Why did she suddenly think of buying an inkstone with auspicious dragon and phoenix carvings?

"Miss, do you want to keep it for yourself or give it to someone else?"

Nan Xi said: "Give it to someone else."

The shopkeeper nodded: "I'll pack it for Miss Nan right away."

Mrs. Nan had been standing quietly by the side, looking at Nan Xi with deep thought in her eyes.
