"Now there are no outsiders, Nie'er, let's say, why do you want to slander Guan Sheng?" Sima Qu's tone was quite calm, not annoyed or angry.

"Father, Dai Dai didn't, Dai Dai didn't say half a word."

Hearing this, Sima Qu got up, and the dishes and chopsticks on the table were shaken, "Do you want to ask for family law, so that you can know your mistake?" ”

"Father, why don't you believe Dai Yuan? Why favor this bad daughter with a heart like a femme fatale and a different heart? She is shameless, she is not worthy of the surname Sima, she is not worthy of being the daughter of Sima Mansion, she is not worthy of being your daughter......" Sima Daiyu refused to give in, refused to knock out her teeth and swallow blood, stood up excitedly, stood up with Sima Qu, and scolded.

"Smack!" I saw Sima Qu wave his big hand, and a loud slap fell on Sima Daiyuan's face.

Everyone was shocked by his actions, their eyes widened, and they covered their mouths to force themselves not to scream.

Sima Daiyu covered her hot face, her eyes flashed with crystals, and her face was full of grievances, "You actually beat me, you grew so big, you never beat me." Today, you actually beat me for this wild seed. ”

There are rumors in the mansion that after Sima Qu married Ling, he never set foot in her room again except for staying overnight on the wedding night. And there are rumors that the cave room spends candle nights, and the two are not husband and wife. But it was rumored that the Ling family was pregnant a month after the marriage, so the maids and daughters-in-law talked behind their backs, saying that the child was conceived by the Ling family.

In the past, the two sisters were deeply affectionate. Sima Daiyuan never took these words seriously, but would reprimand those maids who chewed the root of their tongues.

Now, the sisters turned against her, and she was so excited that she didn't choose what to say.

"Sister, don't say it. Please, don't say it. Zhong Xiaoniang shook her arm and dissuaded her, telling her to stop talking nonsense and anger Sima Qu.

"You...... You...... Disobedience and unfilial things. Sima Qu was so angry that his lips were trembling, and he pointed at Sima Daiyuan with a trembling hand, unable to speak. He waved his palm, ready to fight again.

Sima Daiyuan stretched her neck, leaned her face over, and said angrily, "Fight, you beat me to death." ”

"......" Sima Qu knew that Sima Daiyuan was stubborn, but he never expected to be so stubborn, "Come on!" ”

Hearing the sound, Steward Xie and a few mothers-in-law who were waiting outside opened the door and squeezed in.

"Take the eldest girl to the ancestral hall for reflection, without my words, no one needs to go in."

Stinky girl, how many meals are hungry for you, see if your mouth is still so hard? It's really lawless, dare to be so presumptuous in front of me. Ay! If you don't teach, it's your father's fault, your father's fault!

Sima Qu was so angry that he got on the same page with Sima Daiyuan, and muttered secretly in his heart.

The maids and mothers-in-law looked at each other, hesitated for a moment, and then Steward Xie ordered two maids to come forward and take Sima Daiyuan away.

"Husband......" Zhong Xiaoniang wanted to intercede.

"Whoever dares to intercede will be punished." Sima Qu said sharply, sat down heavily, and ate as if nothing had happened, "What are you all doing in a daze?" Have you eaten and drunk enough? Seeing that everyone was stunned, he shouted sharply.

When everyone heard the sound, they hurriedly picked up the dishes and chopsticks and buried their heads in eating, and no one wanted to say a word more.

After dinner, they dispersed and returned to their lodgings.

Tonight the night is pure and the sky is clear.

In the Lichun Pavilion, Sima Guansheng sat on the stone bench in the courtyard, looking at a crescent moon in the starry sky in a daze.

This time, she didn't feel happy, but she didn't feel a taste in her heart, and she always felt a little guilty.

Everything will pass, they owe it to me, and as it should be, there is no need to bother themselves. As long as the current predicament is solved quickly, we can get rid of this life of walking on thin ice and intrigue. Find evidence as soon as possible to avenge his mother and seek the throne that originally belonged to him for Azuki.

Mother Ling came to give her a cloak, "Second girl, it's cold at night, be careful of the cold." ”

Ling's mother's concerned voice brought her back to her senses.

She tightened the cloak that Ling's mother had put on, and pulled Ling's mother to sit down next to her.

"Mother Ling, sit down, Guan Sheng has something to ask you." She paused, "Mother Ling, you are the closest person to your mother, and you must know everything about your mother." Guan Sheng has something to ask you, you don't have to deceive. ”

"Second girl, you ask! If the slave woman had known, she would have not concealed anything. ”

"Today, even the big sister says that. Mother Ling, you tell Guan Sheng, why is everyone talking about it, Guan Sheng is not his father's biological child? ”

When Ling's mother heard this, her face changed suddenly, and she hesitated for a long time without saying anything, as if she had something unspeakable, "This ......"

"Mother Ling, you don't need to take into account Guan Sheng's feelings, Guan Sheng, as the only daughter of her mother, should know the truth."

"Second girl, it's not the slave woman who doesn't say it, it's the slave woman who also doubts in her heart."

Mother Ling sighed, shook her head helplessly, and began to recall the past.

Sixteen years ago, Sima Qu married the Ling family.

Although Sima Qu was only a small seven-pin county magistrate at the beginning, he studied under Ling Thorn History, and the person he married was the eldest daughter of Ling Thorn Shi, so the dignitaries and nobles in Yongzhou City all went to the banquet and sold Ling Thorn Shi thin noodles.

On that day, Sima's Mansion was full of friends and lively.

Sima Qu ate and drank with him until late at night, and when the guests were sent away, he fell back to the new house with the support of his subordinates, abandoned the subordinates, and closed the door of the new house alone.

He hadn't taken two steps before he collapsed on the table behind the door, drunk and unconscious.

At this time, Ling, who was waiting for the groom, had already fallen asleep leaning on the couch pillar.

After a while, Ling Shi heard a magnetic voice in a daze and said, "The peony flower is dead, and it is also romantic to be a ghost." ”

As soon as the words fell, the Ling clan was overwhelmed on the couch, and the man was full of alcohol.

Sima Qu was taught by Ling Thorn, and before that, the Ling family had a few encounters with Sima Qu, and he was naturally no stranger to his voice. She heard that the voice was not like Sima Qu's, but after thinking about it, maybe it was because she was drunk that the voice was different from usual, so she didn't doubt it anymore.

"Husband, haven't you lifted your hijab yet?" Ling said softly and shyly.

The other party didn't react, just cared about the crazy and Ling clan. Even Ling's clothes didn't bother to take off, and went straight to the point.

Before leaving the cabinet, Mrs. Ling had an explanation and told Ling that she could not take off her hijab by herself, it would be unlucky.

In this way, until the matter was over, the Ling clan did not even glance at Sima Qu's face.

After the incident, the two hugged each other and fell asleep.

Early the next morning, Ling was awakened by a knock on the door of Ling Su'e (now Ling's mother), she opened her tired eyes, and did not notice anyone beside her, and the hijab on her head slipped on the couch at some point. She simply dressed and walked down to find Sima Qu lying there.

"Husband, husband, when did you sleep on the ground? Come, get up, it's cold on the ground. ”

Sima Qu opened his drunken eyes, he drank too much yesterday, and at this moment he still felt that the world was spinning, with a splitting headache and a dry mouth.

He didn't say much, and with the strength of the Ling clan, he struggled to get up from the ground. Stumbling to the desk, grabbing the teapot and pouring water into its mouth.

"What time is it?"

"It's time, Xiao'e is already waiting at the door." Ling went back and opened the door.

Let her find out another surprise, last night, Sima Qu didn't even latch the door, she didn't care too much, opened the door and let Ling Su'e in, "Xiao'e, you come in!" ”

The words fell, and a large group of maids and women came in.

Toiletries, sheets, clothes, sobering soup, and breakfast were all brought in one by one.

Ling Su'e is a dowry maid, and the intimate matter of changing the sheets that were soiled after washing the cave room was naturally handled by her personally.

Before going out from the Ling Mansion, Old Madam Ling also specially explained the matter to her. Early the next morning, no matter whether the sheet was red or not, she had to replace the sheet as soon as possible.

She walked to the couch with the new quilt, but found that there was no blooming red lotus on the sheet. She hesitated for a long time before taking advantage of the unpreparedness and quickly put on the new sheet.

A few days later, Sima Qu brought back Zhong Xiaoniang, who was holding the child. Ling was so angry that he fainted several times, and he washed his face with tears every day.

However, with all the children, what can she do?

The Ling family is also a family with a head and a face, and she doesn't want to burden her parents and shame the entire Ling family. In the end, you can only be aggrieved and resigned.

Ling Su'e is often unworthy of her master, her young lady has both ability and political integrity, knows books and etiquette, is gentle and beautiful. Marrying Sima Qu is already a grievance, but unexpectedly, this thin lover does not know the blessing in the blessing.

After Zhong Xiaoniang entered the door, she came to greet the Ling family with her child in her arms. said that she was asking for peace, but in fact, she was here to block the Ling family, saying that the Ling family should be grateful to her. If it weren't for Sima Qu to let her and the child enter the door, he would not have been aggrieved to welcome the Ling family into the door.

Changing the law day by day and saying some arrogant words, Ling's was so angry that he had nightmares every night, tossing and turning and unable to sleep.

Ling was born in a famous family, grew up being spoiled by the group, and his mind was as simple as a blank sheet of paper. Since she can't compete with this sharp-toothed Zhong Xiaoniang, besides, Sima Qu never sets foot in her residence, let alone make decisions for her, she can only knock out her teeth and swallow blood.

One afternoon, Ling Su'e finally couldn't help but complain: "Miss...... No, ma'am, you need not wash your face with tears for this unloving man. The slave and maid wondered why on the wedding night, the head of the family did not act as husband and wife with different wives. It turned out that he had already secretly crossed Chen Cang with someone, and he married his wife just so that he could bring that fox into the door......"

Ling just listened in a trance, and didn't reply a sentence.

Hearing this, she also felt that maybe that night, she just had an absurd dream. Sima Qu's various performances after this are enough to prove how could he Sima Qu touch her.

Soon after, it was rumored that the Ling family had a happy event, completely subverting the Ling family's so-called Huangliang dream.

Mrs. Sima valued this daughter-in-law and was overjoyed.

When Sima Qu heard the good news, not only did he not care about Ling, but he came to question Ling's angrily.

When the Ling family saw him coming, they treated him politely, and deliberately withdrew from the people in the house, freeing up time for the two of them to be alone.

She leaned on the soft couch and said with a light smile: "Husband, you are tired of standing up, you sit down and say." She pointed to the low stool beside the couch, and her voice was so gentle that her bones were crispy.

"No, I'll leave after I ask."

Before this, Sima Qu had thought about treating the Ling family well, but he never thought that this slut would actually let him be the eighth king. Therefore, he no longer felt guilty about the Ling family.
