Stepmother's Adoption Letter

Chapter 456 I committed such a thing (4)
It was rare for her to show weakness, so Gao Fei also softened his tone, and pulled the quilt over her, "You can rest at ease, I'm the one to do things outside. You just need to avoid seeing people for the next month. Also take this opportunity to support your frail body."

Yuan Lu gave a soft "Yes", leaned against the bed rail and closed her eyes.During this period of time, she had been planning for this matter, and when it came time for her to go into battle in person, she was trembling when she pressed the blood bag tied around her waist.

Of course, Gao Fei was with Yuan Lu who was "tire slippery" this day.

Early the next morning, Gao Fei sent someone to ask for leave, and he went to Qiu Xiu's yard by himself.

Qiu Xiu cried all night, her clothes were disheveled, her hairpins were slanted and her temples were messed up, and she became haggard all of a sudden.

Gao Fei turned back and asked Qiu Xiu for half an hour.

None of the servants knew exactly what was asked, they could guess what happened as long as they knew that the Duke's face was frighteningly dark when he came out.

Duke Cheng's mansion had already attracted much attention after Gao Fei's promotion. The news that Mrs. Cheng's wife had suffered a miscarriage from the aunt who came out of Duke Qi's mansion spread throughout the capital within three days.

Among the wives who went to the banquet that day, some chatted with their own men and said: "The aunt who came out of Duke Qi's mansion is not easy to deal with. Mrs. Cheng Guogong is also pregnant for the first time, so she took it lightly, so she fell in love with her." But who is not cautious in the early stages of pregnancy, only the one who is lenient, and at this time, I will put my aunt by my side to study." Then I will talk about what I saw and heard that day in detail, and it is similar to what I heard about Cheng Guo a few days ago. With the help of gossip about the public favorite aunt, the whole thing became more and more logical.

Even when Emperor Qing came down to the court, he specially left Gao Fei to speak, most of which were words of comfort, which made him feel at ease.

Gao Fei first deeply reviewed his behavior of doting too much on his concubine, and then expressed his shame and self-blame towards his wife and unborn child.The emperor couldn't bear it anymore.In the end Gao Fei kowtowed again, saying that he hoped to send Qiu Xiu back to Duke Qi's mansion.

The emperor was hurting himself because of this incident. If an ordinary aunt committed such a thing, she would definitely have no way out, but this happened to be Duke Qi's daughter, and he was the matchmaker of the emperor's guarantor... but fortunately Gao Fei is sensible, so send it back as soon as you send it back.
