Su Jin told Marquis Dongxiang about her findings, and Marquis Dongxiang's face turned frighteningly solemn.
Xingxing was so scared that she hid behind Su Jin.
She had never seen the Marquis so angry before.
Marquis Dongxiang continually blamed himself; it was his fault that Old Duke Chong was harmed.
If he hadn't wanted to secure the Heir of Duke Chong's position for Su Chong, the old Duke wouldn't have been ambushed and poisoned on his way to Qingyun Mountain upon learning that Su Chong was still alive, nearly losing his life.
The old Duke Chong never believed that his eldest grandson had been harmed and fallen to his death.
Back then, Marquis Dongxiang's actions had directed all suspicion toward Duke Chong, and Old Duke Chong also doubted him.
Thus, for many years, Old Duke Chong refused to establish him as an heir.
After Old Duke Chong was poisoned and bedridden, the title of Duke Chong finally fell into the hands of Duke Chong.
