Chapter 643: A good abacus (1)
"She said she was pregnant with the third prince's child?" Ji Xiaomu and Fang Chen looked at each other. What exactly does the eldest lady of the Ling family want to do?
"I interrogated her, but she insisted that it was the Third Prince's child. I didn't dare to ask the Third Prince, and I didn't know what to do." Old Ling was also in a headache. Who was Li Hong? The Third Prince! Their Ling family decided to leave the royal city because they didn't want to be involved in the court turmoil. Unexpectedly, their eldest granddaughter suddenly got pregnant and said that the child was the Third Prince's and wanted to marry the Third Prince.
Isn’t this dragging the Ling family into this again?
"Grandpa, my sister is lying! Don't bother with her, she's just acting like a bitch." A male voice suddenly spoke, and he stretched lazily, looking nonchalant.
"Who is this?" Ji Xiaomu looked at the man. The man turned around when he heard Ji Xiaomu's words. When he saw Fang Chen next to Ji Xiaomu, his whole body stiffened, and he changed his lazy state and stood up straight.
"Ling Feng, the grandson of Old Man Ling." Fang Chen glanced at Ling Feng and explained to Ji Xiaomu.
Ji Xiaowu remembered that Fang Chen once said that he had scolded Ling Feng for a month. Judging from Ling Feng's subconscious behavior, it seemed that he remembered it clearly.
"You little brat, why don't you come over to meet the general and the madam!" Old Ling rolled his eyes at his grandson. He was usually very bossy in front of Fang Chen, but he turned into a quail when he saw Fang Chen.
"...Hello, General. Hello, Madam!" Ling Feng saluted obediently.
"You just said your sister was lying? Do you have any evidence?" Ji Xiaowu asked with a smile. Ling Feng glanced at Fang Chen and quickly answered. "Madam, you don't know, my sister had a relationship with the youngest son of the prime minister. I suspect that the child is the son's."
"Why didn't you tell me earlier?" Ling Lao was extremely angry. The person he least wanted to have contact with was the Prime Minister.
He never expected that his own granddaughter had an affair with the Prime Minister's most beloved youngest son. This was simply a slap in his face.
"I didn't dare to tell you because I was afraid of your attitude!" Ling Feng glanced at his grandfather. Everyone in the family knew that his grandfather didn't like them to have any dealings with officials, especially the prime minister. How could his sister say that?
"Why did she insist on saying that it was the Third Prince's child?" Ling Lao said angrily, "Someone, bring the young lady here."
"...Then you have to ask her." Ling Feng closed his mouth. It seemed that he knew the reason but couldn't say it.
Ji Xiaomu and Fang Chen looked at each other and decided to wait and see the situation.
Soon, the eldest daughter of the Ling family was brought over by the guards. When she saw Old Man Ling, she couldn't help but lower her head, not daring to look at him out of guilt.
"Grandpa, are you looking for me?" The eldest daughter of the Ling family said with a smile.
"Stop smiling at me! Tell me! Whose child is that in your belly?" Mr. Ling asked angrily.
"Didn't I tell you! It belongs to the third prince Li Hong!" replied the eldest lady of the Ling family.
"Do you want me to invite the third prince over before you tell the truth?" Old Ling narrowed his eyes dangerously. The eldest lady of the Ling family paused and remained silent.
"Do you want to kill our Ling family? Do you know what the current situation is? How can you still act so recklessly?" Old Ling really wanted to slap her. He had made so many efforts to help the Ling family get rid of the prime minister and the court full of dangers, but she destroyed all his efforts so easily?
"I know, so I want to help you!" The eldest lady of the Ling family couldn't help but say.
