Marry a Duke

Chapter 74 Lie

this--

What a shocking secret.

The British prince is under the supervision of his wife every day, and he treats his wife very well.

Even if *** gave birth to only one princess, Ruhui, for Duke Yingguo and no more children, he never cared. There were no concubines or maids in the Duke Yingguo's mansion or ***'s mansion.

The Duke of Ying is simply a role model for all men in the Dayue Dynasty.

Unexpectedly, he had been keeping a mistress in secret for so many years.

*** has connections everywhere, how could he have kept it secret for so many years?

wrong--

Fu Ran looked at Wei Xuan. He looked normal, nothing unusual.

However, she always had an inexplicable feeling.

This matter must have something to do with him.

"It's so strange. The Duke of England kept it a secret from you for so many years. No one even knew that his eldest son was thirteen years old. But now the news leaked out, leaving you with no time to spare."

"My Lord, you have great means, truly amazing." She sighed softly, praising him generously.

Wei Xuan neither admitted nor denied it.

He was surprised to find that she was very smart and could understand things immediately.

The carriage returned to the Duke of Wei's Mansion without disturbing anyone else.

They went straight back to Chaoguangyuan.

Yudi was waiting there, she didn't know whether the Duke could bring his wife back tonight.

But the people from the Ministry of Justice said that the lady was not allowed to bring the maid in.

She could only wait at Chaoguangyuan.

The lady’s belly was so big, she couldn’t even imagine what would happen if something went wrong.

"Duke, Madam, you are back." When Yudi saw people, he almost jumped up.

"You're back. It's so late, why don't you go back and rest first." Fu Ran felt sorry for Yu Di. She definitely didn't know when they would be able to come back.

If you keep waiting, you may end up waiting until dawn in vain.

"Yu Di was worried about Madam, how could she sleep? It's good that Madam is back now. I will go to the kitchen immediately and ask them to bring some water to wash off the bad luck. There must be no delicious food in the Ministry of Justice. I will ask the kitchen to prepare some food for Madam and the Duke."

The raindrops went to the kitchen happily.

Xiao Ningzi also went along.

He also had to help the Duke with some tasks.

Fu Ran was sure that today's matter had been resolved, and she didn't want to delay it.

If I speak to him tomorrow, I’m afraid he will have other concerns.

"My Lord, can I spare you a little more time?"

"Is there something?" Wei Xuan looked at her without moving.

"My Lord, please come inside and talk. I do have something to discuss with you." Fu Ran invited Wei Xuan into the house.

After Wei Xuan sat down, Fu Ran still stood beside him with a respectful look on his face.

"My Lord, I have said before that if I can help you, please let me leave the Wei family. My wife is busy with family affairs and will not look for me for a while, but once she finishes the things at hand, she will definitely think of me."

*** is a vengeful person.

She will keep this account until it is paid off.

"The Wei family is not afraid, but if I continue to stay in the Wei family, it will cause trouble for the Wei family. The Duke will let me go and directly tell the public that I unfortunately passed away due to illness. Then, if the *** can't find me, they will give up."

Her belly is getting bigger and bigger.

If she waits until she is about to give birth, she might not be able to leave.

She left now to find a place to settle down and wait quietly for the birth of her baby.

Wei Xuan never expected that she asked him into the house to discuss this matter.

His eyes were deep and unclear.

When he pursed his lips and said nothing, he exuded majesty and was still somewhat intimidating.

Although Fu Ran was quite courageous, it was clear that he was still a little timid.

He wouldn't beat someone up just because he's unhappy.

Given his bravery in killing enemies on the battlefield, she would probably be killed in just two hits.

"My Lord, just agree to it." She said stiffly.

This man has a very deep mind, and it is difficult to see through him.

She didn't know what he was thinking at this moment.

"Fu Ran, how can you think that you can walk to the end of the world while carrying my child?" He narrowed his eyes, his whole body shrouded in danger.

"The child is mine, and you are my legitimate wife, married to me through a matchmaker. No matter what tricks you use, this cannot be changed."

Fu Ran's eyes widened when he heard this.

what?

What does he mean by this?

He won't let her go?

"You, didn't you promise me before?" Her bright eyes widened, full of disbelief.

Wei Xuan snorted coldly.

"You are overthinking it. When have I ever agreed to your request?"

She is just self-righteous.

Fu Ran tried hard to recall, it seemed that he really had not confirmed or promised it.

She had thrown herself into danger, and now he was denying it.

Fu Ran was almost going crazy.

"If you want a child, just find another woman to help you have one. If you don't have several women, why are you holding me hostage? What good will it do you?"

She couldn't understand his train of thought.

She was not the one he wanted to marry willingly, so if he could get rid of her now, he might as well do it as soon as possible.

"Even if the whole capital knew about it, no one would say anything about you. They all know how confusing and shameless our marriage was."

He noticed that her emotions were becoming increasingly unstable, and his dark eyes fell on her stomach.

"You know, after my last wife died, there were a lot of rumors outside. If you and the child ran away, people in the capital would not sympathize with me. They would only think it was my fault."

"Then let me clarify for you."

"No need." He rejected her kindness. "You just came back from the prison of the Ministry of Justice. You are exhausted. Don't think about anything else. Just have a good rest."

He stood up and was about to leave.

Fu Ran became anxious. From what he said, he knew that even if they talked about it another day, there would be no good outcome.

If she can't leave the Wei family, she will be locked here for the rest of her life.

It’s hard to imagine how sad that would be.

She was so excited that she grabbed his sleeve and stopped him from leaving.

"Wei Xuan, you can't leave until you've made your point clear." She grabbed his sleeves tightly with her two small hands, her eyes full of confusion.

She thought things would go relatively smoothly.

She was willing to use herself as bait.

But she forgot what to do if the other party didn't recognize her.

"Do you really want me to stay?" His dark eyes flashed, and Fu Ran almost let go of his hand in shock.

"As long as you promise me, you can go."

"I can't possibly agree to this. You'd better give up on this idea as soon as possible. Fu Ran, just be a good wife of the Duke of Wei. There will be a banquet in the next two days. Let mother take you to it."

What he said is true.

Fu Ran only felt a roar in his ears.

The little hope that there was originally was crushed by him bit by bit.

"You can't do this." She didn't want to be the wife of the Duke of Wei, and she couldn't be a good wife of the Duke of Wei. "I don't want to be one. I don't want to be one."

Her words made his face darken again.

He used his other hand, which was not held by her, to lift her chin and look at her pale little face with disappointment in his eyes.

All the words that were not spoken were taken back.

"Someone is coming."

Bi'an is just outside the door.

"master."

"Go and get Doctor Ji."
