is the only one left in his family, his mother is sick. If anything happened to him, his mother wouldn't be able to live either."Zong Yu chao Song Chang He beckoned. This kid looked quite timid, but...Zong Taiwu covered his burning cheek, unbelievably turned his head to look at his father.

"Dad, why are you hitting me"

Yuan Xiang Li only realized later, reacted and pushed Zong Ping Chuan in the opposite direction fiercely, roaring.

"Zongpingchuan! Are you crazy"

"Who gave you the guts to hit my son!"

Her arrogance was evident.

Zhong Pingchuan had long known that Yuan Xiangli was only after his looks and his talent.

She had always felt, deep down, that their positions weren't equal. She looked down on his background.

Always above.

In her everyday life, she pretended to be virtuous and gentle. In the end, in the eyes of the Yuan family, she was nothing but a complete fool.

But Zong Pingchuan would not say those words. It wasn't time to tear his face with Yuan Xiangli yet.

"Just because I'm his father!"

"Damn rascal, do you know what he said to Miss Wen today at the Treasure Pavilion for a widow"

"Saying that the Wen family is just like a dog in front of your Yuan family."

"The arranged marriage between the Zong and Wen families was your father's idea. Now that things have been ruined by your precious son, have you thought about the consequences"

Yuan Xiang was stiff all over, not expecting this stinky kid to dare say such things out loud.

But she stubbornly insisted on defending her son.

"Tai Wu is still young, and he's not in the court serving as an official. How could he possibly understand your intricate relationships"

"Wen Xiong is still young and petty. He's clearly a member of his father's wing, and for all these years, if it weren't for his father's support, he wouldn't have achieved what he has today"

"Tai Wu wasn't wrong, he's just a dog by my father's side."

Zongpingchuan was speechless. How could he have thought that Yuan Xiangli would become his best wife at the time

I really wish I could go back in time and slap myself a few times to wake up.

Simply put, he's just a brainless idiot!

And he had two sons, who were also extremely foolish.

The eldest son was obedient, but he wasn't cut out for studying or holding official positions. He relied entirely on his relationship with his father-in-law and carefully navigating the court to maintain his position.

The youngest son is utterly useless, he's so stupid it's beyond belief. He has no talents and only knows how to cause trouble all day long.

He Zongpingchuan had finally made it to where he was today, with his current position. He absolutely would not allow anyone to ruin his future, including his wife and children.

Even if what you say is true, you can't just blurt it out in front of so many people.

The father-in-law needs the support of the Ministry of War.

"This year, the Western Campaign was a great victory. Everyone is about to return home."

There is one unknown factor who could very well be entrusted with an important role by His Majesty and rise to a high position.

"At that time, the political situation will undergo significant changes. If your Yuan family still wants to continue living a comfortable life admired by everyone, it's best not to interfere with any of my plans or my father-in-law's."

Otherwise, the consequences are something none of us can bear.

This was Zong Pingchuan's first time bringing up matters of the court with such seriousness in front of his wife and children, Yuan Xiangli finally realized that things were more serious than she had imagined.

"Well, what should we do then."

"If I've spoken about Taiwu, there’s no way to kill everyone who heard me."

Yuan Xiangli's words did give Zong Pingchuan a wake-up call.

Just leave the rest alone. Tomorrow, prepare a generous gift and go with Tai Wu to visit the Wen family.

Zong Taiwu had a bad feeling.

What are you going to Wen's house for

"Of course, it's to apologize and offer compensation to Miss Wen!"

If she is willing to forgive you, the marriage can be set immediately. I will not pursue your responsibility in this matter.

"If you can't coax Miss Wen, you'll stay in the mansion for the rest of your life and you won't be allowed to go anywhere else!"

Zong Taiwu shuddered all over.

He's practically a eunuch, incapable of doing anything, why would he marry Wen Xiaorou

Is this just a decoration for your home

But he didn't have the guts to contradict his father, so he just had to nod his head in agreement.

"Where's the imperial physician Why hasn't he arrived yet"

Zongtaiwen timidly walked out from the corner.

"Father, the imperial physician has arrived. When you were speaking earlier, I had him wait in the courtyard."

Zong Pingchuan said angrily, "Your brother is hurt like this, the imperial physician should come in immediately!"

Please let them in.

Two sons, both idiots! hurriedly said."I'll go with my big brother."Mu nodded.Hu Ailan, who was standing nearby, had already started panicking. "No, I don't want to go back to Sunjia Village. I barely escaped from the vill...
