Unexpectedly, everyone thought of the recent rumors.
Princess An's mother's family, the Sun family, was almost wiped out...
As soon as Li married into the Xia family, Sun died in childbirth, and the Sun family was almost wiped out at the same time, leaving only Xia Luotong and the wet nurse.
Older people all know that Mrs. Li entered the house as a head wife, and had never heard of Xia Zhihe having an original wife. It was not until the wedding day of Prince An that the world knew that Xia Zhihe actually had an original wife. , and Li is just a stepmother?
But if she is a step-brother, how can she treat her like a legitimate wife? After all, according to Xia Luotong, when Mrs. Li got married, her first wife, Mrs. Sun, was not dead yet, so Mrs. Li should only be regarded as an equal wife. The rules for an equal wife and a regular wife are different...
Could it be that the truth is really as Xia Luotong said? When Xia Zhihe married Mr. Li, his first wife was not dead at all. The door was wiped out? !
Through Xia Luotong's words, everyone thought of this, and looked at Xia Zhihe and Li a little differently...
Although it was not a serious crime in Zhou Dynasty to stop a wife and remarry, it was indeed illegal.
If this matter is true, although Xia Zhihe's current status and Li's family background may not necessarily result in Xia Zhihe's official position being lost, he will definitely be reprimanded by the emperor.
As for Li...
If the entire Sun family is really wiped out, she will be imprisoned until the investigation is completed...
Thinking of Princess An's targeting of the Li family and her dissatisfaction with the Xia family, everyone suddenly felt that this matter might be true...
There was silence in the hall for a while, and the eyes of all the guests fell into the eyes of Xia Zhihe and Li. How could they not understand what the guests were thinking?
Both of them were shocked. They never thought that Xia Luotong would choose such a time to bring up those old events.
Li Shi shook her hands, and then clenched the fists in her sleeves tightly, but she tried not to show any flaws on her face.
How could Xia Luotong know what happened back then? !
If this matter comes out, neither Xia Zhihe nor her father Li Ge will be able to protect her!
Not to mention reputation and status, her destiny must be revealed!
The panic in her heart spread, and the different looks around her made her feel on pins and needles. The anxious Li made up her mind and must not admit this!
That’s right! As long as she dies and refuses to admit it, Xia Luotong will definitely have nothing to do with herself!
After all, what happened back then was done very cleanly, and all the insiders were silenced. Even the nanny who was the only one who might have noticed the truth was crazy, and she died more than ten years ago. There will be no more in this world. If someone can tell the truth about that year, there will be no evidence to prove that she did those things!
Thinking of this, Mrs. Li felt reassured and finally relaxed a little.
She thought that Xia Luotong must have heard some news from the wet nurse before, so she said this. But if Xia Luotong had evidence, he would have brought it out to convict herself. After all, Xia Luotong now has Wu Zechen. With Prince An as your backer, how could you marry into the palace and not reveal this matter for so long?
As for Xia Luotong himself, when this incident happened, Xia Luotong was just a newborn baby. Everything he knew was based on what the wet nurse said, so naturally he couldn't do anything.
Li's guess was correct. Xia Luotong did have no evidence, but so what if there was no evidence?
She can still take revenge, but in a different way!
If you tell these things today, not many people may believe them, but once the seeds of doubt are planted, if these Xia family members do something or something happens, it will be easy for people to think of these things!
And if there are more and more such rumors and more and more people are suspicious, then the reputation of the Xia family will plummet. Even if they cannot be convicted, the world will hate and revil the Xia family. This can be said to be a serious problem for the Xia family. An invisible sharp blade constantly stings their ridiculous vanity.
Compared to Mr. Li, Xia Zhihe was more nervous because it was a fact that he stopped his wife and remarried.
Has this matter been exposed now? If it is confirmed, it will be a big shame for him. So if it comes to that last resort, in order to preserve his reputation, he can only...
As for the destruction of the Sun family, although Xia Zhihe was nervous for a moment, he naturally figured it out quickly.
Because of the Sun family's matter, after the Li family dealt with it, not only did they help clean it up a second time, but the Li family also took action to clean up the aftermath for the third time to ensure that the Sun family's matter was absolutely trouble-free, even if something happened A situation like today's would not endanger one's own safety.
The only omission might be Xia Luotong, the daughter of the Sun family.
Since Xia Luotong married into Prince An's Mansion, Xia Zhihe has regretted countless times, why he didn't deal with Xia Luotong together in the first place!
As his first child, Xia Zhihe was soft-hearted at first and stopped Li's actions. However, as time passed and Xia Luotong was not raised by his side, he soon forgot about this child.
It was not until later that Li gave the young Xia Luotong a chronic poison. Xia Zhihe actually knew everything about it, but ignored Li's behavior because he no longer cared about the eldest daughter, or in other words, he did not care about his grandson at all. The children born by the family are regarded as their own children.
Xia Zhihe now regrets it very much. If Xia Luotong had not been left behind, there would not have been so many complications today, causing him to lose such a large amount of wealth, and causing the Xia family to lose such a big face recently!
Xia Zhihe already knew about the recent rumors about the Xia family, but he was completely helpless because the matter had spread completely and almost everyone in the capital knew about it. How else could he control it?
Now that Xia Luotong revealed these things again at the concubine banquet, Xia Zhihe could no longer let them develop.
Xia Zhihe calmed down and immediately defended: "You were still young at the time, so of course you don't remember. Your stepmother didn't marry into the family until after you were born, and your younger siblings were born prematurely, so they are not related to your birthday. Less than ten months apart.”
It is true that most twins give birth earlier, but in fact the birth dates of brother and sister Xia Hongzhang and Xia Zhilu are not that much earlier at all. They are only more than half a month early, not at all like one and a half months early as originally rumored. as long as!
So Li was actually pregnant before she married into the Xia family!
But Xia Zhihe would naturally not say anything about this.
The time when Li married into the Xia family was indeed after Xia Luotong was born, but the time difference was really short...
