Seeing that Zhong Ling hadn't come out yet, Gan Baobao couldn't help but ask with some concern, "Good son-in-law, how is Ling'er now?"

"Don't worry, Mother-in-law, the poison in Ling'er's body has been neutralized. She's just exhausted and asleep. She'll be fine after a good night's sleep."

⁄(⁄⁄•⁄ω⁄•⁄⁄)⁄

Upon hearing Nalan Sheng's words, Gan Baobao and the others blushed and subconsciously looked at Duan Zhengchun, who was filled with envy.

It's no wonder Duan Zhengchun was so envious. If he could be as fierce as Nalan Sheng, Dao Baifeng probably wouldn't have stopped him from taking a concubine.

"Mom, Father, Imperial Uncle."

A somewhat weak voice suddenly rang out, drawing the attention of Duan Zhengchun and the others.

Duan Yu, pale-faced, walked out of the stone house, leaning against the wall.

"Yu'er, are you alright?"

Seeing this, Dao Baifeng quickly walked to Duan Yu's side and helped him up with a concerned expression.

"Mom, I'm fine, I'm just a little dizzy."

Upon hearing this, Dao Baifeng hurriedly said to Duan Zhengchun, "Your Highness, let's go back first and ask the imperial physician to give Yu'er a thorough check-up, so as to avoid any potential problems!"

"Okay, then..."

"Duan Lang, are you going to abandon us, mother and daughter, again?"

Just as Duan Zhengchun was about to nod in agreement, Qin Hongmian suddenly reached out and grabbed him.

Seeing the resentful looks in Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao's eyes, Duan Zhengchun unconsciously stopped in his tracks again.

Duan Zhengchun already felt indebted to Qin Hongmian and the others, and now that he learned they had given birth to his daughter, he felt even more indebted to them.

Just as Duan Zhengchun was in a dilemma, Duan Zhengming suddenly spoke up: "Second brother, niece Ling'er has also been poisoned. Why don't we bring her back to the manor and let the imperial physician examine her properly?"

Although Duan Zhengming was the emperor of Dali and had many concubines in his harem, he had no children. Otherwise, he would not have passed the throne to Duan Yu in the original story.

Therefore, after learning that Duan Zhengchun had an illegitimate daughter outside, Duan Zhengming really hoped that Mu Wanqing and Zhong Ling could be recognized by their ancestors.

"Yes, yes, Ling'er's body also needs to be thoroughly checked to avoid any potential problems."

Duan Zhengchun was overjoyed upon hearing this and quickly echoed Duan Zhengming's words, saying, "Baobao, Hongmian, you two come back with me too. Making our family live a good life is more important than anything else."

"Senior sister, what do you think?"

When Gan Baobao heard Duan Zhengchun say this, she immediately showed interest, but she still didn't forget to ask Qin Hongmian for her opinion.

"No! I won't agree."

Before Qin Hongmian could even speak, Dao Baifeng couldn't help but interject, "Duan Zhengchun, if you dare take them back, I'll kill myself!"

"Phoenix, you..."

"Shut up, you bitch!"

Nalan Sheng suddenly shouted, interrupting Duan Zhengchun.

"You...you dare to insult me?"

Dao Baifeng was also stunned by Nalan Sheng's scolding. Her chest heaved with anger, and she pointed at him, her fingers trembling.

If Nalan Sheng hadn't saved Duan Yu's life, Dao Baifeng would definitely have fought him to the death.

"Father-in-law, I originally did not want to expose this matter in public, but now that things have come to this, I must expose this woman's true colors, otherwise my two mothers-in-law would be too wronged."

Nalan Sheng ignored Dao Baifeng's words and turned to Duan Zhengchun, saying, "Father-in-law, Duan Yu is not your son at all. He is a bastard child born from Dao Baifeng and another man."

"What did you say? Impossible! Absolutely impossible!"

Duan Zhengchun naturally did not believe Nalan Sheng's words, nor did he want to believe that the son he had raised for so many years was actually someone else's son.

"Nalan Sheng, you're talking nonsense!"

Duan Yu couldn't help but roar, "Don't think that just because you saved my life you can insult my mother. If you dare to talk nonsense again, I will never forgive you!"

"Whether I'm lying or not, you can tell just by looking at Dao Baifeng's expression," Nalan Sheng sneered.

Upon hearing this, everyone subconsciously looked at Dao Baifeng, only to see that Dao Baifeng's face was pale, and she looked flustered and guilty.

"Dao Baifeng, if you don't want anyone to know, then don't do it in the first place!"

Nalan Sheng continued, "Back then, to get revenge on Prince Duan for having affairs, you deliberately went to Tianlong Temple and had an affair with an ugly beggar who was crippled in both legs."

However, what you didn't expect was that you would become pregnant with that beggar's child, so you went along with it and gave birth to the child.

"All these years you've been preventing Prince Duan from taking a concubine. Whether it was out of jealousy or fear that if he had his own son, it would threaten the status of that illegitimate child, only you know the answer."

"Phoenix, this can't be real! Tell me this can't be real!"

Even though Dao Baifeng didn't admit it herself, Duan Zhengchun could already guess the truth from her silent demeanor.

Moreover, after learning that Duan Yu was not his child, Duan Zhengchun's two doubts were finally resolved.

First of all, Duan Yu was a premature baby. Dao Baifeng was only eight months pregnant when she gave birth to him, but he was no different from a full-term baby.

Previously, Duan Zhengchun only thought that he was protected by Buddha, but now he understands that Duan Yu was born at full term.

Secondly, not long after giving birth to Duan Yu, Dao Baifeng went to a Taoist temple to become a nun.

Duan Zhengchun originally thought that he had hurt her feelings, which was why she was so disheartened.

Looking back now, it must have been Dao Baifeng who felt guilty towards himself, which is why he chose to become a nun to atone for his sins.

"You despicable woman! So it was you who wronged Duan Lang, and yet you pretended to be so virtuous, preventing our family from being reunited for so many years. You deserve to die!"

After learning the truth, Qin Hongmian and Gan Baobao both wanted nothing more than to tear Dao Baifeng apart alive.

If it weren't for Dao Baifeng's interference, Qin Hongmian and the others would have become Duan Zhengchun's concubines long ago, and Mu Wanqing and Zhong Ling would have become princesses of Dali Kingdom.

"There's one more thing I need to tell you all: Duan Yu's biological father is also present!"

"What?!"

Upon hearing such a shocking revelation, everyone couldn't help but gasp in surprise, and then began to look at the people around them with suspicion.

Qin Hongmian couldn't help but urge, "Good son-in-law, tell me quickly, who is that adulterer?"

"That adulterer is him!"

Amidst the incredulous gazes of the crowd, Nalan Sheng pointed to Duan Yanqing, who was lying not far away.

"Dao Baifeng, you really aren't picky about food!"

When Qin Hongmian saw Duan Yanqing's ugly appearance, she couldn't help but sneer, "You dare to sleep with such an ugly man? I really admire you."
