Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death

Wang Muyuan was initially indignant, but when Yao Feiran didn't react, she whispered, "It can't be true, can it?"

"It's true. When this body was young, it fell in love with a poor scholar. Later, when they eloped, their family found out and brought them back. Although it wasn't publicized, most of the aristocratic families in Muzhou knew about it."

"I thought the young lady's fondness for scholarly pursuits was just wishful thinking, but it turns out it really is true. It seems your body died too young, so it wasn't mentioned. Does General Qin know about this?"

"He knew that the original owner of this body married him because of this stain. He was originally deposed by his stepmother, and if he hadn't married the original owner, he probably wouldn't have been able to escape the Yao family."

Yao Feiran didn't care much. Many years had passed since then. Although the Muzhou family knew about it, there was no way to verify it. The token that the original owner gave to the man had long been taken back by the Yao family.

The Yao family was also aware of the scandals of the other families, but since there was no life-or-death feud, the other powerful families had no reason to make a fuss about it.

"No wonder General Qin in the novel remained faithful to his wife. Even though she couldn't bear him a son, he wouldn't take a concubine. He was a grateful person."

"His own personality also plays a part."

Wang Muyuan: "This person is trying to ruin you by spreading such rumors. Have you offended anyone?"

"I think I know who it is."

It's most likely Li Chenxuan.

He arrogantly believed that Qin Xuan had given everything, killed her birth mother without her permission, and wanted to marry her against her will. His self-righteous affection showed that he never considered what Qin Xuan wanted. This kind of person is not trying to atone for his sins, but will only regret it when he is unhappy.

"Did you see any other negative things about Li Chenxuan in the novel?"

"He dismissed all his concubines, but one of them was from a respectable family and had a child. She didn't want to leave the Marquis's mansion because of her child. Li Chenxuan deliberately arranged for the groom to have an affair with that man, and then drove the concubine out. She eventually died in despair."

Wang Muyuan paused for a moment as she spoke: "It was only mentioned briefly in the novel. At the time, I thought the male lead was very handsome and had an unparalleled affection for the female lead. But in real life, this man is disgusting. Does he think he can hurt innocent people at will just because he's doing it for the female lead?"

"Sis, do you want to spread this around? But there's no evidence."

"A rumor is a rumor because it lacks evidence. If he can do the first thing, I can do the fifteenth. However, this matter is still too trivial. Think back again, is there anything else?"

Wang Muyuan reviewed the novel again.

"I heard that several concubines also died of illness. These concubines initially refused to leave, but then they just died of illness. It's too much of a coincidence."

"To express his deep affection, he allowed his concubine, who bore him children, to be humiliated and indiscriminately killed innocent people. Does he really deserve to be the male lead?"

Yao Feiran: "He is an arrogant person and doesn't care about anyone at all."

Before long, an outrageous rumor spread, originating from elsewhere, circulating among caravans traveling far and wide, with no traceable source.

#The Marquis of Yun'an dismissed his harem overnight because he actually likes men#

#In order to get rid of his harem, Marquis Yun'an did not hesitate to poison his concubines, thus cuckolding himself.#

#The Marquis of Yun'an wanted to marry the second young lady of the Duke's mansion, but in reality, it was to cover up his affair with his lover.#

In no time, the news spread like wildfire throughout the capital, with some even claiming to have seen Li Chenxuan and a man being intimate on a pleasure boat, describing it in great detail.

Once this sensational rumor surfaced, it completely overshadowed the rumors about Yao Feiran.

When Wang Muyuan found out, she was overjoyed: "How could you come up with such a thing? Using an even more sensational rumor to cover up your own. It reminds me of the entertainment industry back in the day."

"Don't worry, that's not all."

Soon the Ministry of Justice received a case accusing Li Chenxuan of abusing his concubines. Several of his concubines were from respectable families, including the illegitimate daughters of minor officials. Li Chenxuan dismissed them but refused to settle them properly, which angered several of his concubines who were unwilling to leave. As a result, Li Chenxuan resorted to extreme measures, and some families who couldn't bear to part with their daughters fought to the death.

This matter suddenly escalated.

Yao Feiran was also happy to watch the show.

Li Chenxuan didn't expect this matter to escalate so much. He originally just wanted to get revenge on Yao Feiran, preferably ruining her reputation and making General Qin divorce her, so that Qin Xuan wouldn't suffer and no one would stop him from getting close to Qin Xuan.

How did things get like this? Who is behind this?

Li Chenxuan's eyes were bloodshot; he hadn't slept all night.

Soon, the household steward rushed over: "My lord, the Embroidered Uniform Guard has arrived."

......

A month later, the matter was hastily concluded due to Li Chenxuan's lax management of his household. It is said that the results of the autopsy proved that the concubine had indeed died of illness, but Li Chenxuan's negligence led to her sudden death from a serious illness. The concubine's family could not be contacted, which caused the misunderstanding.

Li Chenxuan was eventually dismissed from his post.

Wang Muyuan told Yao Feiran what she had found out: "Could it really be a misunderstanding? Li Chenxuan didn't kill anyone?"

Yao Feiran: "If the emperor doesn't want to punish Li Chenxuan, there are plenty of ways."

"How could this be? Is this emperor really that incompetent?"

"The deceased old Marquis was the emperor's study companion, and he only had this one son. Not to mention that the empress is Li Chenxuan's aunt. If it is really found that someone was poisoned, according to the current laws, Li Chenxuan will not only lose his title, but he will also have to be skinned alive to appease public anger. But for the emperor, the death of a few women in the harem is not a big deal and there is no need to punish him."

Wang Muyuan shook her head: "It's outrageous, so outrageous! Saying that princes are subject to the same laws as commoners—isn't that just bullshit?"

"Wasn't your world like this before you traveled through time?"

Yao Feiran took a sip of water, not thinking of breaking it down all at once; she had plenty of time.

Wang Muyuan looked dejected for a moment, but quickly recovered: "It's no use for an ordinary person like me to worry. Let's have hot pot for lunch."

"it is good."

......

After this incident, Li Chenxuan calmed down, and two years passed in the blink of an eye. During this time, Li Chenxuan quietly returned to his original position.

Qin Xuan seemed to be gradually becoming interested in Shen Zeyu. When they met at the banquet, they would exchange a few words, and Qin Xuan would even talk about Shen Zeyu with Yao Feiran.

Qin Fangtian has also returned. This time, his return to the capital was met with another grand welcome, with the people lining the streets to greet him.

After returning from his duty report, Qin Fangtian went straight back to his residence.

"Madam, I'm back."

"It's good that you're back."

In recent years, Yao Feiran has continued to send caravans to donate supplies and occasionally bring a letter home to tell Qin Fangtian about the big and small things happening in the capital. When Qin Fangtian returned, he did not feel any estrangement and even missed her very much.

Yao Feiran glanced at him; he had gotten quite a bit darker, probably because he was out fighting all day and would never get his fair skin back.

Qin Fangtian returned home, saw his two daughters, and then spoke with Yao Feiran alone.

"Madam, is what you wrote in your letter true? That Li Chenxuan dared to have designs on Xuanxuan?"

"Yes, and he was also responsible for poisoning me back then."

Qin Fangtian's expression suddenly darkened: "How dare he be so audacious!"
