Duke Ying Su Shi, since he wished to bring that woman into the family, Gai Yinyin, who occupied the status of the rightful wife, certainly became an eyesore.
Because of the protection from the Old Madam, Su Shi didn't dare to bring up this request to the elderly lady—had he done so, his legs might not have remained intact, let alone preserving his precious son.
Gai Yinyin had committed none of the seven grounds for divorce, but considering her own daughter was sick and weak, she probably wouldn't last much longer.
Once the child passed away prematurely, the claim of 'failure to bear issue' could barely serve as a pretext to demote her.
But now, Zhu Liusha couldn't wait any longer; she had been pregnant with her own flesh and blood for over a month.
Seizing the opportunity when the Old Madam left home to offer prayers at the temple, as soon as the Old Madam stepped out, Su Shi wasted no time in driving Gai Yinyin out to make room for Zhu Liusha.
