Eunuch's Favor: The ever-changing princess flirts with the governor

Chapter 268 Swearing to Heaven

In the pavilion, Rongchang Hou looked at the person who threw herself into his arms, his face became even worse, but he did not push her away. Instead, he suppressed his displeasure and patted her and said, "Why are you crying again?"

Ji Zihan didn't say anything, but hugged him and cried even more sadly.

Mrs. Rongchang's face was as pale as paper at this moment, as if she had fallen into an ice cave, and her whole body was cold to the bone.

The old lady in the pavilion was used to seeing the couple embracing each other. Seeing her son's bad tone, she immediately said, "Why are you being mean to Zi Han? It's your good useless wife who did this. Do you know how Zi Han was humiliated because of your wife?"

Rongchang Hou frowned when he heard this and said, "Mother, I have long told Zi Han to stay at home obediently, why did you bring her into the palace today?"

The old lady said angrily, "What are you talking about? Zi Han followed you so secretly, and you didn't even want to give her a name. She has suffered so much injustice, and now you don't even let her go out?"

Rongchang Hou frowned, "That's not what I meant."

The old lady snorted coldly, "That's not what you meant. Think about it carefully. Zi Han worked so hard to please those nobles, all for you."

Rongchang Hou's face became even worse. "I have already said that I will handle my own affairs. You should not interfere. Mother asked her to curry favor with people everywhere. Not only can it not help me, but it will only make me a joke among the ministers."

The old lady said confidently, "That's because Zi Han has no reputation or status. If she used the title of Madam Rongchang to lobby for you among the nobles, how could you be laughed at?"

Rongchang Hou lowered his voice and said, "Mother, I already have a wife. The position of Rongchang Madam can only belong to Ziyuan."

The old lady was furious when she heard this and said, "Ziyuan, Ziyuan, you only have that bitch who can't lay eggs in your heart. For so many years, my Rongchang Marquis Mansion didn't even have a grandson, all because of this jealous woman.

Now that Zi Han is finally willing to follow you, you are unwilling to even give her a title. Fine, today I don't want you to let that bitch give up your position. You must promise me that you will give Zi Han a position as a concubine in a few days."

Rongchang Hou frowned and looked at his mother, "Mother, we have already agreed on this matter beforehand. I will never give you a title. You and Zi Han both agreed to it at the beginning. How can you go back on your word now? There is no way I can let you be a concubine!"

Upon hearing this, Ji Zihan, who was crying in the man's arms, threw herself into the old lady's arms, tears streaming down her face, her whole body trembling with sadness and despair.

The old lady was heartbroken when she saw this, and she pointed her anger at Rongchang Marquis, "You rebellious son, I tell you today that this matter is settled. If you don't want to say it, I will go and tell you myself. Zi Han has been pregnant for three months, but she still has no status. I tell you, this is the first child of my Rongchang Marquis Mansion, my beloved grandson, and I will definitely give him the status of the eldest son of the Marquis Mansion."

When Rongchang Hou heard this, he was about to speak, but he heard a voice saying "pregnant". The voice was so familiar that he turned his head suddenly.

Then he saw his wife staggering not far away!

Rongchang Hou's expression suddenly changed, and he asked in panic, "Ziyuan?"

Mrs. Rongchang looked at her husband in front of her, and for a moment she didn't know whether to cry or laugh.

I cried that I had loved such a person with all my heart all these years, and I laughed at myself for being so blind that I was fooled like a fool by these people!

Princess Duanyang felt very distressed by her expression that seemed like she was crying and laughing at the same time. She glared at Rongchang Hou in anger and was about to go forward to help him, but was stopped by Xiao Tu who smiled and raised his hand, "Keep watching~"

Princess Duanyang was filled with worry, "But fairy, Ziyuan..."

Xiao Tu curled her red lips, took out some melon seeds, and smiled faintly, "She doesn't need your help~"

Rongchang Hou was extremely flustered at the moment, and rushed forward and said, "Ziyuan, you, you listen to my explanation..."

Mrs. Rongchang felt a sweet taste in her throat at this moment, but she suppressed it and swallowed it down. Her eyes were already extremely red, but not a single tear fell.

She stared at Rongchang Hou and said, "Li Changrong, after so many years, I have developed feelings for you, even though I raised a dog. But I have not yet become accustomed to you, my husband who sleeps with me every night."

Upon hearing this, Rongchang Hou said hurriedly, "No, Ziyuan, things are not what you think. I got drunk by accident, and that's why I had sex with him. This is all an accident."

Mrs. Rongchang smiled coldly, "Drunk, Li Changrong, we have been married for so many years, how could I not know that you have a good alcohol tolerance? There is no need to talk about such a ridiculous excuse. You are just trying to use the alcohol to act crazy and stupid to find a good excuse for yourself that is not so dirty."

Rongchang Hou immediately said, "No, I was really drunk. I drank a lot that day. She suddenly appeared in our room and undressed me. I thought it was you. I mistook her for you."

Mrs. Rongchang found it even more ridiculous when she heard this. "Did he mistake her for me, or did he get drunk and think that since she was delivered to his door, he might as well make the best of it. Maybe he could have a child?"

Marquis Rongchang froze when he heard this, obviously knowing what he was thinking.

Mrs. Rongchang was not surprised at all. What was funny was that she was so blinded by her deep affection that she could not see this clearly!

Rongchang Hou knew that he could not hide it anymore, so he held her hand tightly and said, "Ziyuan, I was confused and lost my mind at that time. Please forgive me this time..."

Madam Rongchang shook off his hand and said indifferently, "If you were just drunk the first time and you got carried away, then what about afterwards? Why didn't you tell me afterwards?"

Rongchang Hou immediately said, "I hid it from you because I was afraid you would be angry. I know I was wrong..."

Madam Rongchang looked at the man's face and said sarcastically, "The child is already three months old, but three months ago, you didn't go out for social events for the entire month, so the child wasn't conceived when you were drunk, right?"

Rongchang Hou, who was explaining, froze there with his mouth open. He clenched his fists, and without saying anything more, he lifted up his robe and knelt in front of the woman. "Ziyuan, I was wrong this time. Please give me a chance. I swear to heaven, this is the only time. I will treat you twice as well in the future. I will definitely compensate you well. If you violate my promise, I, Li Changrong, will not have a good death!"

Mrs. Rongchang was not moved at all when she saw this. "I remember that year, when you went through three matchmakers and six engagements, you knelt in front of my parents and swore to the heavens that you would only have me in your life and would never have two lovers. If you break your promise, you will be struck by lightning."

Rongchang Hou saw that her anger was gradually fading, and her whole person was as cold as if she had given up. He immediately panicked and said, "Ziyuan, what I said at that time was true. I only have you in my life. Ji Zihan was just a jerk for a while. Don't worry, I will send her away immediately after she gives birth to the child. I will never see her again in this life. Let's live a good life from now on, and we will still love each other as before."
