Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 721

"Is this my mother's first time with you?"

Startled by the sudden question about something so embarrassing, Wan Peng felt a little awkward. "No... what's wrong?"

Yun Xiaohan's expression changed slightly. "Then how can you be so sure I'm your son?"

"Because Lady Liang followed Prince Han, but she did not get pregnant. I had someone confirm it. If she had gotten pregnant, she would not have been sent to the Jiaofangsi (a government-run entertainment institution); she would have been executed directly."

At that time, everyone knew that she was the future Princess Consort of Han, because she had been tricked into having a one-night stand with the Prince of Han, so she was naturally not a virgin.

"After I rescued her... she's been following me ever since."

"She didn't leave until she became pregnant."

Yun Xiaohan breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that he wouldn't be confused about this matter.

"Han'er, the past cannot be entirely blamed on me. Your mother was indeed somewhat vain and greedy for power and wealth. At that time, I was not as powerful and influential as Prince Han."

"She looks down on me, yet she wants me to be used by the Prince of Han, deliberately keeping me hanging on... Tell me, what man could stand that?"

At that time, he knew there was nothing he could do about her, so after the Liang family fell on hard times, he went to find her as soon as possible.

He did intentionally humiliate her, imprison her, and take advantage of her...

"I know it's wrong to do this, but who is without fault?"

Yun Xiaohan didn't want to hear his words of repentance. He had no feelings for the Liang family and still believed that the Liang family and Madam Yun were his mothers.

"Well, now that we've confirmed that we're father and son, I hope you can help me through this difficult time. I don't want to involve the Yun family."

"It's obvious that someone wants to harm the Yun family and the Empress."

Wan Peng nodded. "Of course. I'm your father, and I will never let anyone hurt you again."

"But when are you going back to the Wan family?"

Yun Xiaohan didn't want to come back. "We'll talk about it later!"

He left after saying just one sentence.

Wan Peng was secretly furious. This trick of teasing people was exactly the same as his mother's, which really made him angry.

Both mother and daughter only know how to take advantage of themselves.

But what can you do? He's your own son, so you can only spoil him!

Unlike Madam Xiao, Madam Wan was not so irrational. He intended to bring Yun Xiaohan back, and Madam Wan did not object.

She even took the initiative to visit Xiao Ling'er at the Yun family home and try to get close to Madam Yun.

......

Royal study room.

I received another piece of new information.

"As expected, the Emperor's former subordinates of Prince Han are still around."

"Now they have raised an army in Qizhou and rebelled."

If someone rebels, then people must be sent to suppress them.

Murong Yu's expression turned grim. "Are you sure those are former subordinates of the Prince of Han?"

"It's pretty much true. Everyone's saying it's because of Lord Yun... saying he's the son of Prince Han."

Wan Peng immediately retorted, "Absurd! Yun Xiaohan is my son now. We've already done a blood test to prove it. How could it be fake?"

"Lord Wan, this is a difficult matter to discuss. I suggest that we place Yun Xiaohan under house arrest for now," said Prime Minister Pei.

......

"Your Majesty, I heard that His Majesty has ordered the eldest son to be arrested."

Yun Xiyue became anxious upon hearing this.

Qingmei, supporting her, was immediately furious. "How dare you! Where did you, a mere palace maid, come from? How did you manage to get in here on your own? Get out of here!"

The palace maid's face turned deathly pale instantly. After begging for mercy, she quickly ran away.

Granny Chen quickly sent someone to investigate.

These people deliberately used this kind of news to provoke the Empress.

It is evident that there are also people with ill intentions in the Zichen Palace.

"Your Highness, please don't worry, the nanny has gone to inquire. The news is definitely false."

Yun Xiyue touched her stomach, feeling uncomfortable. "Qingmei asked Master to come over... I feel a stomachache, and I can't breathe properly..."

Qingmei was startled and quickly sent someone to find the ghost hand.
