However, Mrs. Su is not so easy to fool. Although Dr. Zhou said that this was indeed the case, he thought back that Lingxiu was from the East Palace and was injured on the battlefield. How could His Highness not ask an imperial doctor for him? ?
She spent some time and asked people to inquire at Tai Hospital, and found out that this was indeed the case.
She thought that even if Concubine Xiao wanted to fool her, she could bribe Doctor Zhou, but she couldn't bribe the imperial doctor.
Therefore, it is absolutely true that spiritual practice cannot be humane.
Naturally, she didn't know that this was because the Crown Princess had been ordering people to keep an eye on Concubine Xiao's movements. Seeing that Concubine Xiao had bribed Dr. Zhou to say that spiritual cultivation was not humane, she asked Mr. Wei to go to the Tai Hospital to cooperate.
Of course, before doing this, Leng Xiao asked Master Wei to ask Ling Xiu, and Ling Xiu himself agreed.
As long as he can break off the engagement, I will agree to it no matter how heinous he is, let alone say anything inhumane.
Apei was very surprised and asked Leng Xiao, "Why did Concubine Xiao go to see Mrs. Su in person? Isn't she afraid that King Jin will settle accounts with his wife? If King Jin knows that she ruined the spiritual marriage, can King Jin let her go? ?”
Leng Xiao said with a smile: "Mrs. Su won't say it. She cherishes her reputation. Concubine Xiao feels sorry for her concubine. She risked offending Princess Jin to tell her that if she reveals that she is Concubine Xiao, she will repay kindness with revenge. Then Who will dare to associate with her in the future?"
"What the Crown Princess said makes sense." Ape said with a smile, "If the Su family takes the initiative to cancel the engagement, it will not damage Miss Su's reputation, which is a good thing."
"However, the fact that Ling Xiu is not humane will spread, and no one will marry Ling Xiu again, and Mrs. Ling will have to accept you."
Ape nodded, "That's not a bad thing for me."
Leng Xiao agreed. At least Ape would not have to look at their faces when he came in from now on.
After Mrs. Su verified the situation, she told Dr. Su about the matter.
Mr. Su loves his daughter very much, so naturally he doesn't want his daughter to marry and become a widow. How will he live his life?
But to break off the engagement, it must be justified, so Leng Xiao did not spread the word to the outside world. Instead, Su Langzhong took some money and asked people to talk about spiritual cultivation. He spread the news for a few days and then broke off the engagement. This way it was justified. .
Mrs. Ling originally wanted to meet Apei and give her a warning so that she would not miss her son. However, she did not expect that Apei would not come to see her. She was so angry that she almost died. She even swore that Apei would come to her house. She doesn't agree to being a concubine.
After the news came out that spiritual cultivation was inhumane, she was dumbfounded and hurriedly called the traitor back to ask for details.
After returning from spiritual training, he directly admitted that he had indeed been injured on the battlefield and that he might not be able to have children in the future.
Mrs. Ling felt like she was struck by lightning. After crying till she was hoarse, she slapped Lingxiu several times, pointed at him and scolded him, "Why didn't you tell me about the injuries you suffered on the battlefield? You followed the prince on the expedition, and you suffered You haven't even got a job in the official position, and you still have to work hard for him. What benefits will it bring to you? If you don't get even the slightest benefit, why are you going? Why did I give birth to you, a fool? Woolen cloth?"
She slapped her in the face a few more times and cried: "What should we do now? It was Princess Jin who arranged this marriage for us. If these things spread, Princess Jin will definitely think that I am lying to her. She will hate us to death." Family, you have really ruined the futures of your father, your brothers and your younger brothers. Even your sister will be affected by you.
Lingxiu knelt on the ground and let her beat him, but his heart was really cold. He thought that his mother would feel sorry for him when she knew about his physical disability, but he did not expect that she was actually worried that Princess Jin would be angry. In her eyes, Here, this son is not as important as Princess Jin's opinion.
