Xu Yuandeng nodded. His words were directed at everyone, but he looked coldly at Royal Consort Jin Zhi, Royal Consort Sun Mi, and Qiao Yanqi, who were standing behind the Eldest Princess. “Are you all sure that the person lying on the ground is my mother, Xu Qing?”

For a moment, they suddenly fell silent. No one dared to speak. Although they had received news that this woman was 100% Xu Qing, or else they wouldn’t have gathered everyone here intentionally, for some reason, at this moment, they suddenly felt a little flustered. Xu Yuandeng’s gaze made them tremble. This child was only three years old, but his gaze was as cold as Qiao Yanhui’s!

This made the people who were already intimidated by Qiao Yanhui feel even more afraid. No one dared to say that this person was Xu Qing.

Xu Yuandeng was very satisfied with the effect he had achieved and smirked slightly. “Since no one thinks that this person is my mother, let’s go. Although she’s an unimportant person, she’s a woman after all. We should save her some of her dignity. Of course, if I hear any rumors about my mother, your entire family will have to suffer the consequences. Be it my father or me, we won’t let you off!”

Although Xu Yuandeng’s tone of voice was cold, he still sounded childishly cute. However, even so, no one dared to laugh or doubt Xu Yuandeng’s words. The War God doted on his children and Xu Qing very much. If Xu Yuandeng really whispered something in the War God’s ear, their entire families would be exterminated! At that time, it would be impossible for them to negotiate with him.

“Wait!” How could Qiao Yanqi let Xu Qing off just like that? How could she be willing to let this go? It was a trap she put so much effort into, so how could she let Xu Qing escape unscathed?! Even if she couldn’t kill Xu Qing today, she had tp ruin Xu Qing’s reputation and shake her position.

When the Eldest Princess heard this, she immediately looked at Qiao Yanqi coldly.

Qiao Yanqi couldn’t help but lower her head dejectedly. “Aunt, I’m doing this for my sister-in-law’s sake. If I don’t clarify it in person, I’m afraid there will be people gossiping behind her back. At that time, even if we want to catch those people who spread the rumors, we probably won’t be able to catch them. How can we stop people from gossiping? In the end, Brother Hui will be the one who gets hurt…”

The Eldest Princess snorted softly, but she didn’t refute Qiao Yanqi. This was because she also knew very well that rumors were the hardest to clarify.

“So you think this woman is my mother?” Xu Yuandeng pointed at the woman lying on the ground.

“I didn’t say that.” Qiao Yanqi naturally wouldn’t admit it. If it really wasn’t her, wouldn’t she be hated by Brother Hui? How could that do? She still had to win Brother Hui’s heart bit by bit.

“What do you think, Eldest Sister-in-law and Second Sister-in-law?” Qiao Yanqi looked at the two consorts. Now was the best time to pull Xu Qing down from her high horse! She didn’t believe that these two wouldn’t be tempted. How could they be willing to watch Xu Qing escape just like that? They might be able to set Xu Qing up this time since Xu Qing was off guard, but it would be difficult for them to do it again. Therefore, she couldn’t let Xu Qing off today. She believed that Jin Zhi and Sun Mi wouldn’t watch this opportunity slip away either.

Although Jin Zhi and Sun Mi didn’t understand why Qiao Yanqi wanted Xu Qing dead, their goals were the same. They only thought that Qiao Yanqi was dissatisfied with her brother choosing a useless village girl.

“That’s right. This matter should indeed be clarified. There are many people today, so it’s inevitable that there will be discussions. The General’s wife’s innocence is more important than anything else,” The two of them chuckled as they said.

“Since the three of you think that this person is my mother, as her son, I’ll go take a look personally. Of course, I’ll put the word out in advance. If this woman isn’t my mother, don’t blame me for being ruthless,” Xu Yuandeng said again. After saying that, Xu Yuandeng strode over. He didn’t gently flip over the woman lying on the ground as everyone had imagined. Instead, he kicked the woman on the ground over on her back. This stunned everyone. Did he have a grudge against her or something? Why did he kick her so ruthlessly? Was this her biological son?

However, in the next second, everyone became extremely shocked because they saw that the woman lying on the ground wasn’t Xu Qing at all! It was just a woman with Xu Qing’s figure! Moreover, this person was one of their people!
