Marquis Gu coughed softly and answered, "I've been there once."

"Did you spend the night there?" Old Madame Gu asked.

"Of course not!" Marquis Gu was utterly shaken, "I was passing by at that time and Lin’er happened to be in her courtyard and called me. I went in, talked to Lin’er and then left!"

Gu Chenglin was still injured at that time. He was in a wheelchair and the top he was playing with flew to the roof. He went in to help him get his top.

Old Madame Gu said with a stern look, "You’re not saying that because your wife is here, are you?"

Marquis Gu’s expression looked solemn, "No!"

"You go out first." Old Madame Gu said to Yao shi.

"Yes." Yao shi bowed to her before turning to the door.

Marquis Gu gently pulled her sleeve and whispered in her ear, "I really didn't. Believe me."

Yao shi didn't speak, pulled back her sleeves and silently left the room.

"You tell me the truth!" Old Madame Gu looked at his son.

Marquis Gu was anxious, "This son is telling the truth!"

Old Madame Gu's gray brows twisted, "So, the seed in her belly is really not yours?"

Marquis Gu went blank, "What seed?"

Old Madame Gu said grumpily, "She's pregnant for more than a month."

She finally accepted the child, but it turned out to be a bastard, which made Old Madame Gu extremely angry!

Marquis Gu looked coldly at Concubine Ling.

Although he didn’t like Concubine Ling, it didn’t mean that he would allow her to put a green hat on his head!

Concubine Ling had already passed out in anger earlier and had woken up again at this moment. As a result, as soon as she opened her eyes, she met Marquis Gu's death glare. She shivered and nearly passed out again!

She got up from the bed, knelt on the edge of the bed and grabbed Marquis Gu's hand, "Lord Marquis! This concubine is not pregnant! This concubine is not!"

Marquis Gu coldly retracted his hand, "Whether you’re pregnant or not, don’t you know very well in your heart?"

"I’m really not—" Concubine Ling felt really wronged to death.

Compared to when she was poisoned by Yao shi and was accused of using self-injury ruse, this situation made her feel even more wronged.

In her heart, there was only this man and this man alone. She had admired him ever since she was a teenager. In order to marry him, she even became a calculating woman, so how could she possibly betray him!?

She choked with sobs, "Lord Marquis, it doesn't matter if others don't believe me. But you must believe me!"

Unfortunately, Marquis Gu didn’t believe her in the slightest.

Concubine Ling hollered, "That’s right, it’s Madame! It must be Madame’s doing! She did something to me! She made me scented tea yesterday; there should be something wrong with that tea!"

"That scented tea is from me!" Old Madame Gu was furious.

Concubine Ling hurriedly said, "I mean... She must have tampered with the tea... She must have drugged my tea!"

"Is there such a drug that can make people pregnant?" Old Madame Gu expressed that she had lived to this age but had never heard of this kind of medicine! Did Concubine Ling really think she was a fool?!

Of course, this medicine wasn’t to make people pregnant, but rather to change people's pulse.

Concubine Ling was really in a miserable situation. Not only had her pulse been changed into that of a pregnant woman, but she also suffered the side effects of the medicine. Even the symptoms of early pregnancy were present.

Concubine Ling shifted her look to Old Madame Gu, "Mother! Have you forgotten that I have taken the anti pregnancy medicine? How can I be pregnant?"

Old Madame Gu snorted coldly, "Maybe the effect of that medicine has passed!"

It was the first time that Marquis Gu had heard about her drinking an anti pregnancy medicine, but it didn’t matter. This damned woman cheated on him and became pregnant with other people's bastard child!

He was really furious!

Seeing that both of them didn't believe her, Concubine Ling gritted her teeth and said, "Alright then, you all don't believe me. You all think that I’m having an affair with another man behind Lord Marquis's back. In that case, you should be able to find this man I’m supposed to be having an affair with!"

She wasn’t like Yao shi. She didn’t have a former lover!

Marquis Gu summoned Huang Zhong and told him to find Concubine Ling's adultery partner.

"What… This!" Huang Zhong toughened his scalp and went to search for people.

The first place he searched was Concubine Ling's courtyard, not because he suspected that the adulterer was hiding here, but because it was the living quarters of Concubine Ling and some traces would surely be left in here.

Just before Huang Zhong arrived into the courtyard, a petite figure jumped over the wall.

She came to Concubine Ling's room, intending to plant an "incriminating evidence" against Concubine Ling inside.

As a result, she saw someone else in the room.

Gu Changqing.

Gu Changqing had just arrived too.

The window curtains were opaque and the room was dim, but Gu Changqing recognized Gu Jiao at a glance.

The two people stared at each other blankly for a whole three seconds.

Gu Jiao: "I’m here to put something."

Gu Changqing opened his mouth, coughed faintly, and said seriously, "What a coincidence. Me too."

Gu Jiao：“…”

Gu Changqing：“…”

Why does such a situation always occur every time she does some secret shady business?

Can’t she be alone even once when doing such a task?!

Gu Jiao silently put the evidence forged by Old Chief into the drawer.

Gu Changqing also put his share in it.

The two people went silent for a while again.

Gu Jiao: "Let's not put them together."

Gu Changqing: "Right."

The two people replanted their own evidence at the same time, one in the closet and the other under the pillow.

"Huang Zhong is here!" Gu Changqing heard the noise outside the courtyard and quickly reminded Gu Jiao. He intended to take her out, only to find no shadow of Gu Jiao the moment he turned around!

Gu Changqing: …My help isn’t not necessary, I see.

In Pine Crane Courtyard, Concubine Ling had regained her composure. Yao shi was able to frame her by taking advantage of the Old Madame’s authority, but it was impossible for her to actually extend her reach into her courtyard even if she wanted to.

Why else did she have to drug her in the Pine Crane Courtyard?

Go ahead and search!

She would like to see what things Huang Zhong could find!

“Lord Marquis! Old Madame! I’ve found something!"

Huang Zhong came in hurriedly with two boxes in his hands.

Concubine Ling frowned. What was going on?

Marquis Gu and Old Madame Gu opened the boxes.

The first thing they opened was the box from Gu Jiao. Based on her dream, Concubine Ling had been secretly seeking medical advice in order to treat her infertility. However, Concubine Ling was a very cautious person. Every time she finished reading the prescription, she would immediately burn it.

Thus, Gu Jiao forged another copy for her.

Old Chief had a very good technique and knew how to make things appear old. All the prescriptions were made to look like they were from more than ten years ago.

In addition to the prescriptions, Old Chief also wrote a bunch of sentimental love letters, playing both roles.

Old Chief actually came from a poor family. Before he became a distinguished person, he earned a lot of money through writing romantic stories, and his sales volume was the highest all year round. Hence, writing such love letters and whatnot was a piece of cake to him! [T/N: Lol XD]
