When Xu Jinyi woke up, her body was still a little sore and itchy, as if she could still feel the pair of hot hands pinching her waist, and then...

Lifting the thin quilt, Xu Jinyi bit her lip and stared at the bed sheet with a red face, her face full of shyness.

Di Zisheng was not feeling well either. Buckets of cold water were poured on him, but his excitement showed no sign of subsiding.

He could only resign himself to his fate and summon his Five Finger Girl for help, all he could think about was that beautiful and alluring little face.

The fire in my heart faded, replaced by a deep feeling of emptiness.

Di Zisheng knew that he missed her.

In order to see her as soon as possible, Di Zisheng took action.

……

Xu Jinyi knew from Xiao Qi's reminder that there were several more expert secret guards around him, and he realized that Di Zisheng had returned to the position that rightfully belonged to him.

These secret guards were also sent by him, so she should be able to enter Beijing.

After all, with his abilities, as long as he returns to his body, King Yan will be nothing.

Thinking of this, Xu Jinyi asked Liuli to pack her luggage quickly, as she didn't know what was happening to her parents in prison.

As for Liusu, since she was brought back to the Marquis of Pingyang's Mansion, she thought she could finally get rid of her status as a slave and live a good life.

She was even complacent that she was better than Liao Keren's secret mistress, but reality gave her a heavy blow.

Mother Lu's attitude towards her was simply hatred. Not only did she arrange the worst courtyard for her, she also didn't even have a maid.

She thought that since she was pregnant, she would be treated well when she came to the Marquis' Mansion, but she never expected that the situation was completely different.

"How can a lowly slave who climbs into bed be pregnant? Don't think that what's in your belly is good. This lady warns you that from today on, you'd better be quiet and don't have any thoughts."

"Otherwise, this lady can kill you quietly."

Mother Lu felt a headache when she saw Liusu. Thinking that the Prime Minister's wife had already given the go-ahead, she looked at Liusu's belly.

Thinking that he was his grandson, he didn't say anything.

But it has been decided that the mother will go and keep the child, and when the child is born, Liao Keren will raise him outside.

We must not let the people in the Prime Minister's Mansion know about this, otherwise, if the concubine gives birth to a child before the wife gets married, there will be a lot of trouble.

Liusu faced the desolate little courtyard, waiting for Lu Haoran's arrival miserably, but she didn't even see Lu Haoran's shadow.

He had no choice but to contact the servant to ask about Lu Haoran's whereabouts.

The servant's heart and eyes were filled with the baby in Liusu's belly: "Where else can the prince go? Of course he would go to his mistress's house. The most important thing for you now is to give birth to the baby. Don't worry about the rest."

As he said this, the servant started to attack Liusu.

As soon as Liao Keren was released from prison, she heard the news that Lu Haoran had taken a concubine, and she was so angry that tears streamed down her face.

She nestled in Lu Haoran's arms, saying pitifully, "Brother Hao, don't you love Keren anymore? Otherwise, why would you take a concubine?"

"It would have been fine if you said you wanted to marry the general's daughter before, for the sake of your future, but now you actually took a maid as a concubine."

"You keep saying you love Keren, but you made me your mistress for so many years."

After all, she is the woman he loves, and Lu Haoran also feels that he owes Liao Keren for this.

He hugged Liao Keren and coaxed her: "At the beginning, I just wanted to let that maid serve as a spy, just for fun, I didn't expect her to get pregnant. Don't worry, I only love you the most."

"Since that girl is of no use now, I won't touch her in the future."

Liao Keren wiped her tears: "Really?"

"Of course, she's not as good as you."

As he said that, Lu Haoran hugged Liao Keren tenderly.

Although there were many troubles, after a few days, the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion finally welcomed a happy event.

That is, the relationship between the Prime Minister's daughter Huo Bier and Lu Haoran has been finalized. It was even hinted that they would be promoted soon and the whole family would be able to move to the capital soon.

A month later.

There were overwhelming changes in the capital, and a major purge was carried out in the court.

The Prince of Yan attempted to usurp the throne and was demoted to a commoner and exiled to Ningguta, never to be allowed to enter the capital again.

The Queen Mother was also confined to Yongshou Palace because of her poor teaching.

It is worth mentioning that General Zhennan was cleared of all charges, his family was acquitted, and he was promoted to the rank of first-rank general.

Not only was the former glory restored, but it was also promoted.

Of course, while others are envious, they also lament the hardships of the General's Mansion.

A good legitimate daughter became an abandoned woman because of this incident.

But he also disdained the Pingyang Marquis Mansion that had just moved into the capital. On the day of their wedding, he wanted to demote his wife to a concubine because of his greed and vanity, and finally divorced her.

Now that the Zhennan General's Mansion has been cleansed and has become a first-rank general, everyone is laughing at the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion.

Everyone knows that after the Zhennan General’s Mansion was cleared of charges, it became a big shot in front of the emperor.

A first-rank official, what a great honor it is. There are only two first-rank officials in the court.

One of them is the current emperor’s tutor, and the other is the newly appointed first-rank military general, General Zhennan.

At this moment, in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, Lu Haoran was truly regretting it to the point of his intestines turning green.

"It's wrong, it's all wrong. It shouldn't be like this." Lu Haoran, feeling unwilling, naturally went to find the Marquis.

"Dad, why did it turn out like this? Didn't they say that General Zhennan would be gone? Why did the emperor suddenly restore his official position?"

"Didn't you say that they would have no chance of escaping death this time? That's why I gave up on Xiao Jin? Do you know that the whole capital is laughing at us now?"

The Marquis, with his back to Lu Haoran, was filled with regret and fear.

How could he have known that Prince Yan would fail? If he had known that the Zhennan General's Mansion would be in its current state, how could he have treated Xu Jinyi like this?

But it was too late to say anything now. He just hoped that the emperor would not find out anything, otherwise...

"Okay, stop thinking about the General's Mansion. You and the Prime Minister's daughter have already reached the stage of discussing the wedding date. The most important thing now is not to make any more mistakes."

"Whether it's Liao Keren or your pregnant concubine, have someone keep an eye on them."

Lu Haoran nodded absentmindedly, Xu Jinyi's beautiful face constantly appearing in his mind.

Now, they moved to the capital. In order to prevent the Prime Minister's Mansion from finding out that he had a mistress and a concubine, Lu Haoran kept them together outside.

The courtyards and farms outside the capital were very expensive, so he could only rent one. Moreover, in order to marry Huo Bier and collect the betrothal gifts, he could only rent a small courtyard for Liao Keren and Liusu.

Even so, the betrothal gift was very meager and even had to be borrowed.

After General Zhennan came out, he learned about what happened to his daughter in Marquis Pingyang's Mansion. He cursed Marquis Pingyang's Mansion countless times at home.

The princess was no exception, she cried loudly: "It's my fault, mother, I didn't see the faces of those people in Pingyang Marquis' Mansion, and let you suffer."

"My poor daughter, she has become an abandoned woman at such a young age. She blames me, blames me."
