After being a widow for half my life, I found out that my husband was not dead.

Several aristocratic families did a really good job in this matter. Liu Yunxiang came to the door of the house and was already surrounded by people watching the excitement.

The coffin was blocked at the door. The leader was Zhen Guo Gong, followed by Yang Guo Gong, Zhongyong Marquis, Wuchang Marquis and Yun Marquis. The female family members were led by Zhen Guo Gong's wife, plus the funeral processions from each family, and there was a huge crowd. .

Yan Mu was already at the door, with a livid face, as if he was about to rush over and hit someone.

Duke Zhenguo came forward, bowed respectfully, and then said loudly: "King Zhenbei and the princess please take care of themselves and welcome the coffin of the concubine Yuan into the palace!"

Seeing that Yan Mu was about to rush forward, Liu Yunxiang hurriedly stopped him. If he beat these people today, it would be a big disaster. The court officials would definitely unite to impeach him.

At this time, Mrs. Zhenguo Gong came forward, raised the imperial edict in her hand, and said: "If the princess refuses to let the Yuan family's coffin enter, then I can only read the empress' imperial edict in public. Then I may invite the princess to take the crown and go to Ziyun Temple. Reflect on yourself.”

When Yan Mu heard this, his temper became even worse, and Liu Yunxiang held him tightly.

"If you believe me, leave this matter to me."

Yan Mu looked down at Liu Yunxiang and saw her calm expression. Knowing that she had a plan in mind, he loosened his grip and looked calmer.

Liu Yunxiang glanced at the crowd and saw the people gathered outside pointing and saying nothing good. The ladies nearby also looked at her with disdain, as if she had done something evil.

Liu Yunxiang scanned them one by one, and finally his eyes fell on Lord Zhen Guo.

"My lord, you placed Yuan's coffin in front of my palace today and forced our palace to organize a funeral for her. Isn't this an act of force?"

Duke Zhen Guo snorted coldly: "Yuan was the concubine of the King of Zhenbei, and she was killed in the palace. It is only reasonable for you to organize a funeral for her."

"We have said it many times. If this is the case, let me say it again. Your Highness and the Yuan family have reconciled. This happened four or five years ago. As for the Yuan family being killed in my palace, it was because of the Queen Mother's fault. We are also very sorry that something like this happened after someone was placed in my house," Liu Yunxiang said.

Duke Zhen Guo frowned: "Yuan is pregnant with His Highness Seventh Prince's child, so what do you mean?"

"The child in Yuan's belly is definitely His Highness's."

"If not, the Empress would not have sent Yuanshi to the palace. Now that you are denying it, it's not because Yuanshi is dead and I can't confront you!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone below scolded him and his wife.

"Why are the King and Princess of Zhenbei so ruthless? They killed two people, and they still don't admit it."

"No, this concubine Yuan was pitiful enough. If you ask me, her death was strange."

"I heard that the Princess of Zhenbei is jealous, and it seems that she is indeed the case. The Concubine Yuan was probably killed by her."

"Look at the indifferent look of King Zhenbei, but he is also a ruthless master."

Liu Yunxiang sighed, "With the attitude of the Queen and everyone else, we have nowhere to redress our grievances, so we have no choice but to let Yuan's coffin in."

After Liu Yunxiang finished speaking, he shouted to the servants behind him: "Go and decorate the mourning hall and carry Yuan's coffin in."

But as soon as she finished speaking, a man in a gray cloth gown ran over, hugged the coffin and burst into tears: "Qing Yue, I just went out once, why did something happen to you? Qing Yue , my wife, you left me so cruelly and took our child with you."

The man was crying so hard that everyone present was stunned for a moment.

At this time, Zijin came quietly behind Liu Yunxiang and whispered: "Girl, he didn't want to come at first. The servant said that Yuan Qingyue left some gold and silver treasures. He hurriedly came after hearing this."

Liu Yunxiang nodded, and then snorted coldly, "Yuan Qingyue is also confused to marry such a person."

This man was a tailor in a cloth shop. Because he often came to the house to deliver cloth to Yuan Qingyue, the two of them got along well and even worshiped each other. But Yuanqing was in the house during the confinement period, and had no worries about food, clothing, and monthly money, so the two of them lived in a muddle-headed way. Yuan Qingyue thought Yan Mu was dead, but later Yan Mu returned to Beijing, and she regretted it. After several quarrels, Liu Yunxiang kicked her out of the house. She refused to live a hard life with this man, so she stayed in Lanyuan again.

Yan Mu did go to Orchid Garden when he was drunk, and she did go to take care of him, but Yan Mu kicked him out. Not long after this happened, Yuan Qingyue found out that she was pregnant, and of course the child belonged to this man.

She was unwilling to do so, so she took advantage of the man to go out to collect bills, found Jiang Yunying, and told her about her pregnancy. Jiang Yunying told the queen again that the two of them planned this situation and wanted to use Yuan Qingyue to blame Liu Yunxiang and destroy Yan Mu.

Yuan Qingyue was actually not stupid. She knew that she was being used by Jiang Yunying and the others, but as long as she could get what she wanted, she didn't care about that or the child in her belly.

The man couldn't stand crying. After he calmed down for a while, the Duke of Zhen asked him who he was.

"I am Yuan Qingyue's husband, and my name is Liu Chuncheng." The man said, wiping away tears. "We got married five years ago. Although she reconciled with the King of Zhenbei, due to her special status, she It has not been announced to the outside world. A few days ago, she was pregnant, and we were both very happy. We didn’t expect that if I went out to collect the bill, she and the child... they would be gone!"

As he spoke, the man began to cry again.

Mrs. Zhen Guo’s wife stepped forward, her face already ugly. Things were done like this, which shocked the whole city, the government and the public. Now that this happened, if it is true, then...

"You said you are Yuan Qingyue's husband, do you have any evidence?"

The man cried, "We have a marriage certificate."

The man hurriedly took out a marriage book with the official seal on it. Everyone was dumbfounded.

"Then you said the child is yours, do you have proof?"

"What kind of evidence do you need? Are you going to accuse a dead man of stealing a man?" the man said angrily.

Mrs. Zhenguo stopped talking and was too embarrassed to say anything else.

"If you insist on proof, when she was just pregnant, the fetal air was unstable. I often went to the medicine hall to pack the medicine to protect the fetus. You can send someone to inquire. There are also the servants in Lanyuan, they know it to some extent. .”

Duke Zhen Guo's face was dark, and he turned to ask his wife, "This matter can be found out with one investigation. Why did you decide that the child in Yuan's belly is His Highness's without checking?"

Mrs. Zhen Guo Gong couldn't tell her the pain, so she asked Zhen Guo Gong to look at the Yizhi in her hand, "The Queen said this child is, but we never thought that this could be false."

The various aristocratic families that had been clamoring before were now quiet, and many people even secretly wanted to evacuate.

"Everyone, please do me a favor to carry this coffin into our palace." Liu Yunxiang raised his eyebrows.

Duke Zhen Guo was speechless for a moment. Things had become like this. Naturally, they could not carry the coffin into the palace. Otherwise, they would be unreasonable and bullying Zhenbei Palace.

The Duke of Zhenguo stepped forward to apologize, "Your Highness, Princess, we made an oversight and made you two suffer. Now I will go to the palace to apologize."

After saying that, the Duke of Zhen called for his men to carry the coffin away. As for where to carry it, they could only help the man to bury the person together.

It’s all bad luck!

Liu Yunxiang walked up to Mrs. Zhen Guo and asked her for the imperial edict.

"Since the queen has already issued the decree, I have no choice but to follow it up and ask Madam to give it to me."
