ave herGu Jingxi merely scoffed, "Everyone has weaknesses. As long as you exploit them, regardless of whether they are master and servant or even mother and daughter, they can betray each other in the...Mei Qingyun saw her husband frown, and her smile deepened: "It's nothing really, just that I haven't seen my husband all day, I missed him so much, so I came. For my husband to speak to me like this, it hurts my heart deeply."

Hearing this, Lord Wei's heart skipped a beat. He instinctively felt that this crazy woman must have done something. Otherwise, with her temperament, she wouldn't have come to him proactively and said such things.

Wei didn't beat around the bush either. He got straight to the point and asked, "What good deed have you done"

Mei Qingyun put on an innocent face: "Husband, your words are wrong! I'm just a weak woman, what can I do I just miss you and came to have a look."

When Wei the Elder heard this, he pondered deeply about his family affairs. Lately, everything at home was peaceful and there were no worries. He looked at her with a thoughtful gaze, seeing her innocent expression as if she truly hadn't done anything wrong. However, given past experiences, he always felt that she was hiding something big.

"My dear husband, don't be nervous. I just came to see you."

Mei Qingyun paused, seeing her husband looking at her in disbelief. She then softened her voice and said to him, "Also, I just wanted to check on you, my husband. I thought you must be feeling very sad since we lost another child. So I came over to comfort you and encourage you to look on the bright side."

She spoke slowly, her voice soft and gentle, devoid of any sadness or regret. Instead, it oozed with malice and a gleeful anticipation of the drama to unfold.

As soon as these words left his mouth, Wei's face turned pale. "What did you say!"

He originally had five children, four sons and one daughter. The three eldest sons died young, leaving him with one son and one daughter. The son was born to Mei Qingyun's maidservant and registered under Mei Qingyun's name. He was raised by Mei Qingyun from birth. The daughter was born to another concubine.

The three eldest sons, although they died because of illness or accidents, or perhaps because their mother had difficulty giving birth and the babies were born too long after prolonged labor, causing them to suffocate to death and die at birth. Their mothers also died in childbirth.

But he understood that it was Mei Qingyun's scheme. The gentle and virtuous main wife, when the concubine was pregnant, sent so many supplements that the pregnant woman ate herself into a fat state, causing the fetus to be too large and difficult to give birth. At first, he didn't realize it, but only when it came time for childbirth did he notice. This kind of tactic is also common in the power struggles within the harem. It earned her a good reputation and achieved her goal.

As for the unborn child, a concubine was seven months pregnant when she accidentally drowned, resulting in both her and the fetus perishing. This accident wasn't a simple one; it was a calculated incident, and the culprit behind it all is Mei Qingyun.

Knowing this woman's twisted psychology, she couldn't bear children herself yet wouldn't allow others to. Whenever someone made such a move, the only two who never did were the crazy woman's trusted maid who was taken in as a concubine by her own doing, and Qin'er's biological mother. So every time he finished with her, he would have someone send a bowl of contraceptive soup to his concubines. As long as they didn't become pregnant, this wouldn't happen. Therefore, when no one was pregnant, there were no murders in the inner house.

Now he only has two children left, either his son is gone or his daughter is gone. His son is registered under Mei Qingyun's name, Mei Qingyun would not harm the child, so that means his daughter is gone

The daughter is also well-behaved in her everyday life, and the aunt-in-law is honest and simple. Where has she offended this mad woman

Mei Qingyun appreciated his changing expressions and softly asked, "So it seems my husband still doesn't know I thought the servants had already informed him. But then again, it's understandable that he wouldn't know. This just happened not too long ago."

Lord Wei took two steps forward, grabbed her shoulders, and bit his teeth as he angrily questioned: "Qiner is usually well-behaved and sensible. Where did she offend you"

Facing his angry questioning, Mei Qingyun remained calm and replied softly: "Husband, who told you it was Qiner I quite like this child, Qiner. Today, I even called her over to teach her. When she came to find you just now, I had her aunt take her to bed."

When Wei heard this, his heart skipped a beat, and he stammered, "Is that A-xu Even if A-xu wasn't your biological son, he grew up under your care. How could you bear to..."

As he spoke, a dull ache pierced his heart, and a chill ran up from his feet, leaving him shivering. Xu'er was his only remaining son; they were the Wei family, reduced to just this single seedling. He never imagined that this insane woman would not even spare her own child she had raised herself.

Mei Qingyun remained silent, simply watching him with a gaze filled with sadness, despair, and rage. She watched as he slowly relaxed his shoulders, swayed slightly, and took a step back before regaining his balance.

At that moment, Mei Qingyun seemed to find his three souls missing and seven spirits lost appearance amusing, she covered her mouth and let out a soft chuckle.

Lord Wei’s face was filled with grief as he squinted his eyes, then suddenly opened them wide, his eyes bloodshot. He questioned, "Mei Qingyun, I truly underestimated your limits. You mad woman have no bottom line at all. The first beauty of the capital back then, with talent that rivaled men and a deep understanding of Confucian classics, yet you did such a vicious thing. My mother never treated you poorly, how could you bear to let her, at this age, lose her only grandson"

Mei Qingyun smiled nonchalantly and said, "My husband misunderstood. It wasn't Xu'er; he is still alive and well. I'm counting on him to support me in my old age, how could I possibly harm him"

Hearing this, Wei Da Ren let out a sigh of relief, feeling like he had finally survived.

Mei Qingyun, seeing the situation, continued, "It's Wang shi. She had a miscarriage not long ago. In order to get pregnant and win her husband's affection, and to have a child by her side, she secretly poured out the medicine her husband gave her to prevent pregnancy. She finally got pregnant after much effort, but she fell and lost the child. According to the doctor, the child was already two months old. It's really a pity."

She fell silent, letting out a soft sigh as if lamenting for the plight of Wang's concubine.

Wei, upon hearing this, was astonished. He never expected Wang to dare secretly discard the contraceptive decoction. What shocked him even more was that this crazy woman not only knew about it, but also knew that Wang was pregnant. Even he didn't know about Wang's pregnancy.

He furrowed his brow, his eyes complex as they gazed at the woman before him. He demanded angrily, "I always make them drink contraceptive soup afterwards. Since you know that Lady Wang would do such a thing, why didn't you stop her"

Mei Qingyun looked at him, furious as he scolded her, innocent and wronged: "What do you mean, my husband Didn't you say before that since I can't give birth, I shouldn't stop others from having children Now I feel like what you said back then was quite right. Besides, you only have a son and a daughter under your knee, your offspring are few, so thinking of Wang Yiniang being able to branch out for you is also a good thing, so I didn't stop her.gure, feeling a great deal of satisfaction in her heart. She felt that her grandson had the appearance of an heir. Originally, she was worried because as the prince, her grandson acted capriciously a...
