A wicked mother swaps her son and sucks his blood? The true legitimate daughter is reborn and goes o

Xie Yuqi's mind was buzzing.

The words "miscarriage," "harmed the auspicious omen of the Great Jing Dynasty," and "murderer" were clear to him.

Xie Yuqi instinctively protested, "It wasn't me..."

"Not you?"

Liang Xingjian gritted his teeth and sneered, pointing at the group of ladies in the courtyard, "Everyone saw it clearly in the attic just now. You pushed Shuyi, causing her to fall and miscarry. What excuse do you have?"

Xie Yuqi then noticed the other people in the courtyard.

The ladies sighed with regret, and everyone looked at him with reproach.

At this moment, Xie Yuqi finally realized what the current situation meant for him.

These people were originally witnesses he had prepared for Song Qingning, but now they have become witnesses to his causing "Xiangrui" to miscarry!

This shouldn't be happening!

What went wrong?

Xie Yuqi tried hard to recall what had just happened and saw Song Qingning in the crowd.

Is it her?

Before he could think further, Liang's father strode into the courtyard, his whole demeanor sharp and menacing.

Seeing the basins of bloody water being brought out of the room and hearing the sorrowful cries coming from inside, he gave Xie Yuqi a cold look, turned around angrily, and left the courtyard.

A short while later, the Liang family filed a petition with the emperor, accusing Prince Rui, Xie Yuqi, of causing the princess to miscarry.

The following morning at court, officials criticized Prince Rui for being immoral, cruel, and tyrannical.

One day, the sky was clear and the sun was shining brightly, but suddenly the sky darkened, as if it were night, which was an ominous sign.

The people were talking about this sudden strange phenomenon.

Upon learning of the auspicious omen's premature death, they immediately thought that this strange phenomenon might be a sign from heaven. Furthermore, given the Imperial Astronomical Bureau's previous assertion that "auspicious omens are related to the fate of the Great Jing Dynasty," they became even more convinced that the strange phenomenon was related to the premature death of the auspicious omen.

The auspicious omen was due to the untimely death of Prince Rui.

Immediately, all the public opinion turned against Prince Rui, saying that he would bring disaster upon the Great Jing Dynasty.

The rumors grew stronger and stronger and could not be suppressed. Some officials even petitioned the emperor to punish Prince Rui in order to appease the auspicious signs and ensure peace and stability in Dajing.

Qianyuan Hall.

Emperor Yuan looked at the large stack of folded paper on the table.

Some petitions were still submitted to appoint Song Qingning as the concurrently serving as the Vice Minister of War, while the rest were requests for imperial decree to deal with Prince Rui, Xie Yuqi.

There is another book, which is about the Liang family petitioning for Liang Shuyi to divorce Xie Yuqi.

Not a single book pleased Emperor Yuan!

"Your Majesty, His Highness Prince Rui has been kneeling outside for three days and three nights without a drop of water. If this continues, I'm afraid he won't be able to hold on," said Eunuch Gao cautiously.

During those three days and three nights, Prince Rui fainted several times.

Without Emperor Yuan's decree, no one dared to do anything on their own. They could only let Prince Rui remain unconscious on the ground, and when he woke up, he would continue to kneel.

"Can't hold on? So useless, it would be better if he died." Emperor Yuan's anger, which had been building up for days, finally broke down.

These public opinions and condemnations should have been directed at Song Qingning.

But Xie Yuqi completely messed things up, ruining his plans.

In this situation, Xie Yuqi's reputation has been damaged again and again. Because of Liang Shuyi's miscarriage, the Liang family has joined forces with other prominent families to attack Xie Yuqi.

If this matter is not dealt with, the Liang family will not give up.

Although Emperor Yuan was unwilling, he pondered for a long time before making a decision.

"Draft an imperial edict to order Prince Rui and Liang Shuyi to divorce."

Emperor Yuan's gaze was deep and thoughtful. He first appeased the Liang family's anger, and as for dealing with Xie Yuqi...

……

Despite the raging wind and rain outside, the Prince of Huai's residence remained peaceful.

On the day Emperor Yuan issued the decree for Liang Shuyi and Xie Yuqi to divorce, Xie Xuanjin returned to the capital.

Xie Xuanjin first went to the palace to report on his duties, and happened to see Xie Yuqi leaving the palace in a disheveled state.

At the entrance of the Vermilion Bird Gate, Xie Xuanjin, who had been traveling for days, was untouched by the dust of the journey. His brows furrowed with confidence and spirit, and with just one glance, Xie Yuqi felt ashamed of himself.

This turmoil was originally prepared for Song Qingning, but now it is Song Qingning and Xie Xuanjin who are in this situation.

But they all fell on him.

It's Song Qingning!

It must be her!

In the past few days, Xie Yuqi has thought about what happened that day countless times, and he doesn't believe it was a coincidence.

But Song Qingning alone cannot control the whole situation; she needs someone to cooperate with her, and that person...

Xie Yuqi's face grew increasingly gloomy as he thought of Liang Shuyi.

While he was still in a daze, Xie Xuanjin had already brushed past him without even giving him a glance, as if he were not worthy of his attention at all.

Xie Yuqi's anger flared up.

Just then, a carriage stopped not far ahead, and three people and three horses stood guard in front of the carriage.

The people on horseback were the Liang family father and son, as well as Liang Shumin.

"The divorce papers have been signed and sealed by Shuyi. I would like to trouble Your Highness Prince Rui to sign and seal them as well." Father Liang sat on his horse, looking down at her.

Liang Xingjian handed the prepared divorce papers to Xie Yuqi, while in his other hand he held the imperial edict he had just received.

Under the imperial decree, Xie Yuqi had no choice but to affix his seal and sign the document, even if he was unwilling.

Having received the divorce papers, the Liang family members left immediately without lingering.

Thinking of Liang Shuyi's betrayal, Xie Yuqi roared angrily at the carriage, "Liang Shuyi, you just wait!"

The sound traveled into the carriage.

Madam Liang held Liang Shuyi's cold hand tightly. "Shuyi, don't be afraid. In this situation, he is too busy to take care of himself. My Liang family is also a prominent family, and my father and brother are determined to protect you."

"Mother……"

Liang Shuyi felt extremely guilty.

She wanted to protect the baby in her womb, so she discussed a plan with Song Qingning.

The plan requires the cooperation of the Liang family.

Since she married into the Prince Rui's mansion, her mother no longer showed her the same affection and intimacy she had when she was young, and even her brother became much colder towards her.

She knew they were unhappy with the marriage she had chosen.

She originally thought they wouldn't care whether she lived or died, but Song Qingning said that in the hearts of her family, a lost child always has a chance to turn back.

They're all there if you just look back.

She turned around, and there she was—her father, mother, brother, and sister.

They played along with her in a play, helping her escape and saving her and her child from danger.

"From now on, you will live in the manor. As for the child..."

Madam Liang had already made arrangements: "Your brother will get married as soon as possible, and when the time is right, the child will be raised in your brother's name, so that no one will suspect anything."

"Mother," Liang Shuyi said, her voice choked with emotion.

As the carriage drove further and further away, Xie Yuqi's shouts were left behind until they could no longer be heard.

Liang Shuyi stroked her lower abdomen, feeling a sense of peace for the first time.

News of Prince Rui's divorce spread quickly.

Public outcry against Prince Rui remains fierce, but Emperor Yuan has yet to decide on his punishment.

That night, a clap of thunder sounded.

Lightning flashed and thunder roared, accompanied by wind and rain.

Inside the Prince of Huai's residence.

Song Qingning had just been practicing her sword in the rain. After taking a bath, she was only wearing her undergarments. As soon as she stepped behind the screen, she saw Xie Xuanjin lying on the bed, propping his head up with one hand, as if waiting for her.

The familiar lust in those eyes suddenly brought back memories of the madness of the past few days for Song Qingning.

Xie Xuanjin left the capital and returned, becoming even more unrestrained.

Song Qingning was already used to it and didn't hesitate; she quickly turned off the light.

The room was filled with the enchanting beauty of spring.

Xie Xuanjin wasn't as insatiable as he had been the past few days. He only ordered water once before taking Song Qingning to rest.

Song Qingning practiced her sword and had just exerted herself, so she quickly fell asleep.

In the middle of the night, I was awakened by a loud noise.
