After the host binds to the childbearing system, one baby will be born.

After thinking for a moment, Lin Shuwan said, "Let's not enter the dream yet. It's a bit strange to be in the ancestral hall."

Bao Jie'er looked at the surrounding environment and nodded. It still had some morals. Although it was a dream, it was in front of so many tablets of ancestors from the Marquis' Mansion after all!

At night again, Qin Zhao dealt with the pile of memorials. After taking a bath, he sat on the dragon bed and raised his hand to call the secret guards sent to investigate Lin Shuwan.

Previously, the secret guards he had asked to investigate other women with the word "wan" in their names had all been withdrawn, and only Lin Shuwan went to investigate the Crown Prince's Consort of Marquis Jing'an's Mansion.

With a clear goal, the investigation was carried out quickly, and Qin Zhao obtained Lin Shuwan's specific information that night.

The secret guard knelt on the ground and presented the information he had collected.

Qin Zhao took it with mixed and uneasy thoughts, waved his hand, and the secret guards retreated. Then he turned the page.

The above is a record of everything that happened to Lin Shuwan from childhood to adulthood, no matter how big or small.

In the general's mansion, she was disliked by her stepmother and bullied by illegitimate children. She found an unreliable marriage and married into the Jing'an Marquis's mansion. She stayed alone in the empty room on the wedding night, and on the day of returning home, she was disliked by the Marquis's wife and knelt in the ancestral hall.

Then, six days after the wedding, he brought the concubine from the brothel to Chen Shizi as his first wife. Today was the wedding night of Chen Shizi and his concubine, but Lin Shuwan was punished by the Marquis's wife to kneel in the ancestral hall.

Qin Zhao flipped through the pages at a fast speed, but he remembered all the information on them.

After he finished reading, he closed the book and felt even more distressed and pity for Lin Shuwan. At the same time, he became even more determined to win Lin Shuwan!

Since Chen Siyuan doesn't cherish her, let him cherish her well!

only……

Qin Zhao frowned and thought. He had a strange fate of being a lonely man. Every woman he met would die. If Lin Shuwan entered the palace and became his woman, would it really break his fate, or... would he die like those women?

Thinking of this possibility, Qin Zhao's originally fiery heart suddenly cooled down. He sighed softly and put the paper in his hand on the bedside. He lay on the bed, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.

Forget it. He doesn’t know if he can dream of Wanwan tonight. He wants to ask her about her true identity and what she looks like under the mask.

However, in his dream tonight, Qin Zhao still did not dream of Lin Shuwan.

Wake up the next day.

Liu Youxi originally wanted to wake Qin Zhao up, but as soon as he entered the inner room, he saw Qin Zhao already sitting on the bed with his brows drooping and a gloomy aura all over his body. He didn't look very well and was obviously in a bad mood.

Liu Youxi was in a bad mood early in the morning. He had seen this yesterday, but it was obviously worse today.

"Your Majesty?" Liu Youxi became more cautious in his words and actions.

Qin Zhao raised his head, his black eyes were calm and peaceful, and he said in a hoarse voice: "Undress and go to court."

"Yes." Liu Youxi waved his hand quickly and arranged for the palace servants to come forward to serve.

Qin Zhao went to court with a gloomy face.

Nowadays, the world is peaceful, the court is stable, the people are living and working in peace and happiness, and there are almost no major events, so there is usually nothing to worry about during court sessions.

In addition to urging Qin Zhao to choose an heir from among the royal family.

However, this morning in the court, three imperial censors suddenly stepped forward and jointly impeached the son of Jing'an Marquis, accusing him of doting on his wives and concubines, and even using the ritual of a legal wife when taking a concubine.

What was even more shocking was that the concubine actually came from a brothel, which undoubtedly brought great shame to the royal family. Such behavior completely disregarded the dignity and reputation of the Marquis of Jing'an's mansion and was simply a blatant contempt for the general's mansion.

If this gets out, how will General Lin and the young general, who are far away at the border and performing their duties loyally, feel? If they are not punished, it will not only disappoint the people, but also chill the hearts of the soldiers fighting on the battlefield.

Qin Zhao became more and more annoyed as he listened to the discussions of his ministers.

He slammed the armrest of the dragon throne, his face gloomy, and glanced at the crowd below with sharp eyes. The court fell silent in an instant.

Qin Zhao said in a cold tone:

"Okay, I already know about this. Pass on my oral order. The Marquis of Jing'an favors his concubine over his wife. He is immoral and unworthy of his position. I will now deprive him of his title and punish him with sixty strokes of the cane! As a warning to others! In addition, the Marquis of Jing'an failed to discipline his son properly, which led to his son's condition. He should also reflect on himself!"

He thought of all the grievances that Lin Shuwan had suffered in the Marquis' Mansion, and that Chen Siyuan did not know how to cherish her at all and still wanted to keep her in the Marquis' Mansion. He couldn't help but feel a surge of anger in his heart.

"Dismiss the court!" Qin Zhao said, then stood up and left the court.

After returning to the palace, Qin Zhao immediately summoned the leader of the secret guards.

"I order you to protect Lin Shuwan. If anyone dares to hurt her, kill them without mercy!" Qin Zhao ordered with cold eyes.

The leader of the secret guards took the order and left, but Qin Zhao's heart was still restless.

He didn't know what kind of feelings he had for Lin Shuwan, but he knew that he must not let her get hurt.

Lin Shuwan, who had been fishing in the small ancestral hall all night, was asked to come out at noon the next day.

Because a eunuch came to the marquis's mansion to announce the decree.

All the staff of the Marquis' Mansion must be present to receive the order.

The door of the ancestral hall opened, and Nanny Liu was already waiting at the door. Her expression was full of worry, and she said, "Princess, someone from the palace has come to deliver an order. The Marquis's wife asked everyone in the mansion to go to the front yard to receive the order. The eunuchs are almost at the Marquis' mansion now, so Princess, please go quickly."

"Yeah." Lin Shuwan agreed and hurried to the front yard with his men.

When she arrived, Chen Siyuan, who was lying on the bed, and Qingluan, who had just entered the mansion, had also arrived.

After two days of torture from the spell, the light in Chen Siyuan and Madam Hou's eyes had almost faded, their eyes were dark and their faces were pale and sallow, and they looked like they had not slept well.

Chen Siyuan had more injuries on his body, large and small, and there were many tiny red marks on his face that looked like mosquito bites. Many places were scratched and bleeding, which looked particularly ambiguous.

Since he couldn't kneel down, Chen Siyuan could only lie on the ground.

Chen Siyuan lay on the quilt with a dejected look on his face. His originally thick, jet-black hair now looked to be in a mess. Lin Shuwan took a closer look and saw that it was full of curls, as if it had been burned by fire.

Lin Shuwan's curious look made Chen Siyuan couldn't help but pursed his lips. He turned his face away silently, reached out and tightly held Qingluan's hand beside him.

Last night was his and Qingluan’s wedding night, but because both of them were injured, especially Chen Siyuan who injured his waist, they were unable to perform the rituals of marriage, so they could only drink the wedding wine and send away the servants.

Although they could not have sex, Qingluan and Chen Siyuan did not want their wedding night to pass by in such a dull manner. In addition, Qingluan had learned many skills in serving men in the brothel, so she took off her clothes and served Chen Siyuan personally.

Just when the two were getting into the mood, the burning candlestick accidentally fell.

The candlestick rolled a few times and ignited the bed curtains. The flames shot up high and directly burned the bed.
