982 Why wouldn’t it happen?

“Right, a handle!” Gu Xin’s eyes suddenly lit up, ” I’ve heard about Auntie Jia from great-grandma. Great-grandma said that in the beginning, aunty Jia and the country guarding Duke had a good relations.h.i.+p, which made many people in the capital envious. This was because the country guarding Duke was one of the most handsome men in the capital, and he had a good family background. He was very good to little Auntie Jia, and his reputation had even spread to the palace. At that time, great-grandmother had to teach uncle Emperor how to deal with some court officials, so she had a better understanding of the relations.h.i.+ps between the families.”
“Great-grandma said that the country guarding Duke really loved little aunt Jia deeply at that time. When little aunt Jia was pregnant with sister Xue, the country guarding Duke went to the Xiangguo Temple every day to ask for peace. After sister Xue was born, the country guarding Duke also said that he only wanted this one child. He still wanted to eat the fertility soup because he didn’t want aunty Jia to suffer the pain of pregnancy and childbirth again.”
“So, from the time aunty Jia married into the Duke Zhengguo’s mansion, to the time sister Xue was born, and to the time aunty Jia was pregnant with you, the two of them must have had a very good and sweet relations.h.i.+p. If a man didn’t love that girl so much, how could he be willing to drink the fertility soup just because she was pregnant and suffered? Your family has the inheritance of the t.i.tle of n.o.bility!”
“So, the country guarding Duke must have been threatened by the Lin family. This threat must be huge. When aunty Jia was alive, it must be related to her. After she died, the threat will be you and sister Xue. Or rather, it’s not about you, but about the Duke defender and the life and death of the entire Lu family. The country guarding Duke was threatened and compromised. The two children were not his, but he had to take care of them. Or rather, he’s like fourth uncle Peng. He doesn’t even know that the child isn’t his and thinks that the child is his!”
Lu Zheng looked at Gu Xin in shock.
Gu Xin blinked and said, ” the case that Ren Ren wrote about recently. It’s about a case in the backyard. It’s about this. He said that Peng mu gave him the inspiration, so I think it’s possible for your family. Otherwise, how could a person have a change of heart so quickly? The country guarding Duke is very prideful in other matters, but he remarried right after little aunt Jia pa.s.sed away. This is really inexcusable.”
Lu Zheng pursed his lips, not knowing how to react.
In the end, he could only poke Gu Xin’s head, ” “You’d better not read the forbearance storybook. I don’t think it’s possible for such a bizarre thing to happen.”
Gu Xin rubbed her forehead,’ouch, it hurts! How could it not happen? Didn’t that happen with fourth uncle Peng? Also, are you really not curious at all about what the country guarding Duke was thinking back then? And the secret room you mentioned, it’s a painting of a whole secret room!”
