Double Life: The Long Road to Chasing Your Wife

The Xu family simply thanked Lin Shu and left. Su Yi revealed his identity and said that he could help Xu Jingshu, but Master Xu refused.

Mr. Xu knew Su Yi. As a new member of the imperial court, family scandals should not be made public. After he rejected Su Yi's kindness, he left with Xu Jingshu. After that, everyone has seen what happened in Xu's house.

Su Yi put his cloak on Lin Shu. Mr. Xu had refused his help just now. Now that Xu's house is in chaos, it is inconvenient to disturb him.

"Shu'er, we're gone, let's go!" Lin Shu stared at the Xu family's retreating figures. The scene that just came into view could not be forgotten for a long time. At this time, she did not know Xu Jingshu's true identity, and she felt sorry for this woman.

After arriving at the carriage, the four of them set out on the road to the restaurant.

"Achang just inquired with the people. This woman is the second daughter of the Xu family of the Ministry of Industry. The eldest daughter Xu Jingxian is a noble lady of the current Holy Emperor. She is pregnant with dragon descendants and is about to give birth. So today Xu Jingshu went to Huguo Temple to replace her sister. It is only because of the blessings of Mr. Xian that he suffered such a disaster and his innocence was tainted and thrown into this busy city." King Xian told Lin Shu and Su Yi the cause and effect.

"When such a disaster happens, I don't know if the Xu family will report it to the official." Su Yi frowned and said, he also felt sorry for Xu Jingshu.

"Long Yuanguo has been particularly harsh on women for more than 200 years since its founding. It is only in recent years that women like my cousin have gone out to do business. If something like this happens, the family's shame should not be made public. For the sake of the family's reputation, this girl may not survive. For a long time, not to mention she has a sister who serves the Holy Emperor in the palace."

Su Yi understood what King Xian meant. Rich families always have these twists and turns.

"But this girl is not at fault. The fault is with those who did evil to her. Why should this girl endure the pain that she shouldn't have to endure?" Lin Shu said sadly. She started when she saw Xu Jingshu lying disheveled on the ground. , her heart was filled with panic, and when she heard the conversation between King Xian and Su Yi, her heart was even more clogged. She didn't understand that she had such a strong empathy for this strange girl.

King Xian shook his head.

"There is no way, this world is like this. Even if the Xu family doesn't care about reputation, even if Xu Jingshu survives, she will either become an old girl in the future, or she will be an ancient Buddha in blue and die."

Everyone was silent for a while, they could not help this poor girl unless the Xu family reported it to the government, and the government officials came forward to seek justice for Xu Jingshu, but Mr. Xu had already rejected Su Yi's kindness just now.

After seeing the scene on the road, the five of them felt particularly heavy while eating. This scene happened in front of a prince and a minister of Dali Temple, but they were powerless to change any outcome.

Long Yuqi and Shi Ying were also exceptionally quiet. They worked conscientiously throughout the whole process and did not disturb the other three people.After Lin Shu returned home and washed herself, she lay worriedly on the bed. Su Yi hugged Lin Shu's waist from behind.

"Shu'er, are you still worried about what you saw during the day?"

"Husband, if the Xu family is willing to seek justice for Miss Xu in the future, my husband is currently working in Dali Temple. I hope you can help me."

Lin Shu turned around and looked at Su Yi and said.

"If they really don't care about worldly opinions and report themselves to the government, they are in Dali Temple for their husbands. This is their responsibility as husbands. I will definitely seek justice for Miss Xu, and for the thousands of people like Miss Xu in this world. Women who are also suffering are asking for justice and telling them that they can seek protection from the government."

Hearing what Su Yi said, Lin Shu felt relieved a lot, and the two of them quickly fell asleep.In the Shi Mansion, Mrs. Shi and Mr. Sun ignored their husbands after they returned and let the kitchen cook only their own dishes. Shi Jingke and Shi Muze stared at each other, not knowing what was going on. Both father and son were rushed there. I went to the study room and this situation lasted for a long time.

On the second day, Mr. Xu from the Ministry of Industry asked for leave.

One of Emperor Lan's concubines who was hostile to Mr. Xian found out the specific reason. While Mr. Xian was pregnant with his child, he sent someone to tell Mr. Xian that Xu Jingshu had died. Xiangui was so angry that he had difficulty giving birth.

After Emperor Lan knew the truth of the matter, he ordered the concubine to be beaten twenty times and locked up in the cold palace. He also hurriedly ended his morning court and went to wait outside Xianguiren's palace. After all, this was his first child, so he paid special attention to her.

"Your Majesty, the Empress, the imperial doctor said that Xiangui's heart was so angry that it was difficult to give birth. Now Xiangui is in grief and has no strength to give birth to the child. The baby is stuck in Xiangui's belly."

The midwife told Lan Di Lan Hou Xian Gui's current situation.

"Let the imperial doctor find a way quickly. Make sure that both mother and child are safe. Queen, please go in and take a look. Tell me anything you have to say."

Emperor Lan paced irritably at Xianguiren's door.

After Lian Hou entered, he took Xu Jingxian's hand and said earnestly: "Good sister, I know that you are sad about Miss Xu, but think about it, you still have a child in your belly. Miss Xu goes to Huguo Temple to go to school." Isn’t the purpose of the incense to ask Bodhisattva to bless you mother and child? Quickly cheer up, give birth to the child well, and when you are healthy, you can find out the truth for Miss Xu and avenge her."

"Empress, Empress, I know you are a good person, can you help me ask the emperor if I successfully give birth to a prince, let the emperor send someone to thoroughly investigate my sister's affairs. She is really a good child. She has been around since she was a child. Being smart and sensible should not result in this."

"Mr. Xian, don't worry. I have sent people from Dali Temple to investigate. As long as you give birth to the child safely, regardless of gender, I will make you Concubine Xian and assist the Queen in commanding the Sixth Palace."

Emperor Lan at the door heard Xu Jingxian's request and quickly responded.

In the end, Xu Jingxian relied on her will to avenge her sister Xu Jingshu and used all her strength to give birth to a child.

"Quack~quack~"

"Congratulations to Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Queen, Mr. Xiangui has given birth to a prince."

After the maids tidied up the palace, Emperor Lan came in.

Lanhou held Xu Jingxian's child. Xiangui glanced at her child, pulled Landi's sleeve and said: "Your Majesty, I gave birth to the prince for you. For the prince's sake, I must check it with his biological aunt. Know the truth.”

"Concubine Xian, aren't you afraid that the world will look at you differently?" Lan Di said earnestly.

Xu Jingxian grabbed the guardrail of the bed and tried to sit up.

Emperor Lan and the palace maid held her down. "Don't move, just lie down and talk to me."

"Your Majesty, what happened to Shu'er was because she prayed for my concubine and the child in her belly. If I give up and tell Shu'er the truth just because of other people's comments, then I am not worthy of being her sister. If the prince grows up, Knowing that his aunt was in trouble because she was praying for him, I will feel guilty. I don't care about the comments of others, I just want to give Shu'er justice."

Emperor Lan was still hesitating. Xu Jingxian was in danger when she gave birth just now, so she temporarily stabilized Xu Jingxian. But if he really went to investigate the truth about a woman who lost her innocence and died in a big way, she was afraid that the world would talk about it, and Concubine Xian's reputation might also be affected. Implicated, when the prince grows up, he will also be criticized by others. He has an aunt who has lost her innocence.
