Reborn as the Savior of a Short-lived Father and Son

But Gu Qinghe knew that it was precisely because he had too high expectations that he felt so disappointed the moment his expectations were dashed.

With Shao Wei's comfort, Luo Feng's mood was obviously much better. Perhaps when he thought about this incident again, he would not be as sad as he is now.

Tired of crying, Luo Feng fell asleep hugging Shao Wei's neck. His soft little hands fell on Shao Wei's shoulders, and his face, which was usually stern, now showed a bit of gentleness.

He seemed to be rather strict in educating Luo Feng. Due to his busy official duties, he was unable to spend much time with Luo Feng. The child could be said to have grown up in the company of his servants, but his dependence on him was still something that no one could change.

After carrying him to the bed and putting him down, the two of them walked out quietly. Gu Qinghe breathed a sigh of relief, "I think you won't cry secretly this time."

Shao Wei no longer said that Luo Feng was unmanly.

He thought, after all, she was still young, so it was normal for her to cry a little. At worst, he could take her to the military camp and teach her slowly when she grew up a little.

I can always teach him to be a man of iron and blood.

It was still early, and Gu Qinghe originally wanted to go to Shao Xingjian to ask about Mrs. Lin's situation, but Shao Wei took her to the door of the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Gu Qinghe: “…”

She grabbed Shao Wei's arm and tried to walk back, "What are you doing in broad daylight?"

Shao Wei said, "What can I do in broad daylight? Of course I can make them unhappy. Since Your Majesty wants to turn a blind eye to this matter, it's best to keep it closed."

He led Gu Qinghe to stand at the gate of the Prime Minister's Mansion. When the doorman saw this, he rubbed his eyes and went in to report.

The Prime Minister was arguing with his wife at the moment, and neither of them had told him about what happened this time. If they had told him, at least things wouldn't have become such a mess.

He just did it, but he didn't even clean the tail.

After he said a few words, the two of them started to get angry with him. The Prime Minister's wife covered her chest and said, "Doctor Gu is a witch. God knows how she can seduce General Shao with such an ugly appearance and get so many people to support her."

The more she talked, the angrier the Prime Minister's wife became. She even felt that she was right. "I didn't harm her. It was her husband who was obsessed with money and did this. It has nothing to do with me and Lian'er. You helped outsiders but not your own wife and daughter."

The prime minister was speechless and almost fainted.

After calming down for a while, Li Qiulian started crying again, "Mom did this for me. It's all because of me. If Dad wants to blame someone, blame me, don't blame Mom."

"How can I blame you!" The Prime Minister's wife became agitated again when she heard this, and accused the Prime Minister with tears in her eyes, "Do you know what Gu Qinghe did?"

She ordered her servants, "Go, bring the jade pendant to the master for a look!"

"What jade pendant?"

The Prime Minister's wife sneered, "You will know when you see it."

The servant quickly brought the jade pendant over. The moment the hand touched the jade pendant, the prime minister's pupils shrank slightly, but like the prime minister's wife, he quickly recognized that the jade pendant was fake.

His face turned cold, "Where did this come from?"

He recognized the jade pendant as fake too easily, and the last string in Li Qiulian's heart was broken.

He originally thought that the Prime Minister did not care that much about the baby girl whose life or death they had long since determined, but he was able to recognize the authenticity of the jade pendant at a glance, which was enough to prove that when no one was around, he must have held the remaining jade pendant and rubbed it for countless days and nights.

Li Qiulian tried her best to suppress the hatred that was about to burst out of her eyes. She lowered her head and whispered, "It fell from Doctor Gu. I saw this jade pendant with my mother before. I thought maybe she had some relationship with my mother, so I bought it. But who would have thought, my mother said it was fake as soon as she got it."

The prime minister was silent and no one knew what he was thinking, but his wife was very excited. "Since she could make this fake jade pendant, she must know the things that happened in the prime minister's mansion in the past. Maybe she is still dreaming that one day you and I will see this jade pendant and recognize her as the daughter of the prime minister's mansion!"

The baby girl whose life or death is unknown is a thorn in the Prime Minister's wife's heart that can never be removed. As time goes by, it will only pierce deeper and deeper and will never heal.

The wound gradually festered and started to ooze pus, causing excruciating pain when touched.

She screamed at her husband, "I just want her to die! How dare she pretend to be the daughter of my Prime Minister's Mansion? She is simply courting death!"

The prime minister still didn't say anything, but just looked at Li Qiulian deeply.

This glance seemed to reveal Li Qiulian's dark and twisted soul, making her whole body stiffen.

Fortunately, the concierge came hurriedly and rescued her from this sight.

"Sir, General Shao Wei is here."

"Who?"

"General Shao Wei Shao, there is a woman with him."

The Prime Minister's wife stood up suddenly, "It must be that Gu Qinghe! Well, she actually dared to come here, I will tear her hypocritical face apart!"

The veins on his forehead were throbbing, and the prime minister stopped his wife and said, "You and Lian'er, go back to your rooms. No one should get involved in this matter anymore. His Majesty is already fed up with my Li family. If this continues, you and I will become a joke in the capital."

He looked at Li Qiulian again, "Keep an eye on your mother. If you continue like this, I won't be able to save you."

This serious tone made Li Qiulian restrain herself a lot.

After all, if the Prime Minister's Mansion really fell, her good days would be over, and all these things she fought for would be meaningless.

She supported the prime minister's wife and whispered to comfort her, "Mom, let's go back to the room first. What Dad said makes sense. Let's discuss it in the long run, okay?"

After much persuasion, the Prime Minister's wife was coaxed back. Li Qiulian was very worried, not knowing what Shao Wei was going to do at this time.

The way the prime minister looked at her just now made her scalp tingle. The feeling of being seen through at a glance made her very uneasy.

……

When the prime minister walked into the front hall, Shao Wei had already sat down, and like the host, he asked the kitchen to bring a plate of pastries to Gu Qinghe.

"General Shao is not in Chizhou, how come he has time to come here?"

Shao Wei pulled the corner of his mouth with a fake smile, "Prime Minister, you are asking a question that you already know the answer to. Why did I come here? Don't you really know?"

After spending so much time with those old-timers in the court, the Prime Minister had become much more thick-skinned. Even so, he did not feel embarrassed at all. "General Shao, you are too kind. I am just seeking the truth."

"The truth?" Shao Wei laughed out loud, "Then did the Prime Minister find out the truth? What are you going to do about it?"
