Xie Qingyao did not deny it.

At this point, there is no point in denying it.

Seeing her agree, He Huaixuan felt as if his face was trampled underfoot and he was completely humiliated.

He had recklessly married Qin Yurong as the Crown Prince's wife, and even became a laughing stock in the capital. However, Qin Yurong repaid him in this way by making him wear a big green hat.

A feeling of regret surged in my heart.

There was a murderous look in He Huaixuan's eyes. Qin Yurong, this heartless person, had betrayed him.

The feeling of anger and suffocation was really uncomfortable for him.

In an instant, He Huaixuan understood.

In his previous life, when he and Qin Yurong brought the children to Xie Qingyao, did she feel the same way?

When Xie Qingyao learned that he had been in love with Qin Yurong for a long time and asked her to raise a concubine for him, she felt the same as he does now.

All my efforts were met with ruthless betrayal.

No, no, He Huaixuan denied subconsciously.

It's different. He is a man, and it is normal for him to have three wives and four concubines.

He gave Xie Qingyao the position of mistress and brought her infinite glory. It was not considered bad treatment for her. She should be content.

Seeing He Huaixuan's extremely ugly face, Xie Qingyao said slowly, "After all, she is your legally married wife. It's not right for you to use such harsh tactics."

"It's normal for couples to have some bumps in the road. As a man, you need to be magnanimous so that you can get by."

He Huaixuan felt sick as if he had eaten a fly when he heard this. He said indignantly, "Qin is cheating on her son with his wife. This is a great shame and humiliation. Which man can endure this?"

Xie Qingyao completely ignored his anger and said calmly, "I don't want any word of this to get out."

She glanced at Qin Yurong, whose face was covered in blood, and said, "Now the prince has beaten her and vented his anger, and Qin is still pregnant with his child."

"There's no such thing as an overnight grudge between husband and wife. Please forgive her, my prince."

He Huaixuan's heart trembled.

I didn't expect to hear such words from her.

Don't advise others to be kind unless you've experienced their suffering. Xie Qingyao is a typical example of someone who talks without thinking.

As soon as Qin Yurong gave birth to the child, he killed her immediately!

He Huaixuan gritted his teeth and said, "My mother taught me that."

Xie Qingyao showed a teachable expression, "I'm going back home first, my lord, please take care of your own household affairs."

Today's incident has cut off Qin Yurong's retreat. She can no longer use Wei Ninghui to kill someone else, and she will have to live under the torture of Tao and He Huaixuan in the future.

Besides, He Huaixuan has murderous intentions towards her, so life will probably become even more difficult.

He Huaixuan looked at Xie Qingyao's back as she left and pondered for a moment.

Xie Qingyao did not tell her father and grandmother, but let him handle it, hoping to make a big deal out of a small matter. In addition to maintaining the reputation of the Marquis of Anguo's Mansion, was it also to maintain his face?

He Huaixuan's heart suddenly softened.

He placed Qin Yurong under house arrest, "not allowing her to step out of the yard."

Qin Yurong yelled, "No, you can't do this to me."

He Huaixuan said in a cold tone: "What should a woman do if she disobeys her husband?"

The old woman hesitated for a moment, then stepped forward and slapped Qin Yurong. She kept slapping her until the prince stopped and Qin Yurong vomited blood from the corner of her mouth and fainted.

He Huaixuan never even looked back at her.

He still had another damn person to deal with.

In the grass, a man and a woman hugged each other and were affectionate.

Suddenly, the dagger stretched out and quietly cut the man's neck.

"Who..." Wei Ninghui covered his neck and fell down with his eyes wide open.

The woman was so frightened that her face turned pale. She screamed and trembled for a long time before she said, "Sir, I have done as you ordered. Where is the banknote you promised?"

He Huaixuan turned his back to the moonlight, stabbed the woman in the abdomen, and said coldly: "Go ask the King of Hell for it."

The woman fell to the ground.

He Huaixuan stuffed the dagger back into the woman's hand, making it look like she committed suicide out of fear of punishment.

…

The next day, news came out that Wei Ninghui had forced a woman to death.

Xie Qingyao was such a perceptive person, she said while holding the teacup in her hand, "He Huaixuan is a ruthless person."

His methods now are much more brutal than before.

Hearing the sound, the maids also guessed the truth.

In the afternoon, Xie Qingyao went out and first went to the shop to pick out some fashionable jewelry, and then went to the pharmacy to buy some medicinal herbs for practice.

There was a noise from the crowd.

"Madam, it's Princess Yong'an." Zhitao said in a low voice.

Huh?

Xie Qingyao looked up and saw Princess Yong'an with a group of guards and several noble ladies around her, like a moon surrounded by stars.

Surrounded by many noble ladies, Princess Yong'an glanced around casually and her gaze paused.

It stopped on Xie Qingyao.

She came gracefully, blinked, and said innocently, "Madam Anguo, what a coincidence! It's so rare for me to leave the palace, and we've run into each other. It's truly fate."

Xie Qingyao said indifferently: "It's indeed a coincidence."

Princess Yong'an became curious and asked, "The Marquis' wife went to Runan a while ago. Is Runan fun?"

She pouted, "It must be fun! I'm so envious. I can't travel around so freely. I heard that the Marquis of Anguo even left his official duties to accompany you to Runan."

“…”

The ladies were all surprised at the same time, with different expressions.

This made Xie Qingyao look like a vixen in a brothel, so seductive that Marquis Anguo lost his focus on his work and couldn't even take care of his business.

Princess Yong'an had a smile in her eyes, and she seemed unaware that there was anything wrong with what she had just said.

Xie Qingyao sighed softly, "Didn't anyone tell Her Royal Highness the Princess?"

"It seems that Her Royal Highness the Princess is isolated from the news in the palace and doesn't even know that the Marquis was sent to Runan on an imperial errand."

Her voice was slow and sympathetic. "Could it be that Her Royal Highness doesn't even have a close friend? Look, she's made a fool of herself in front of everyone."

"But don't worry, Your Highness." Xie Qingyao smiled at her, "I won't laugh at Your Highness."

Xie Qingyao's smile was brighter than spring, making everything around her pale in comparison.

Princess Yong'an choked and squeezed out a sound from her throat: "Is that so? It turns out that I misunderstood."

She changed the subject, "This princess is a little bored in the palace. Madam Hou, please come to the palace and play with me someday when you have time."

Let her be so sharp-tongued. Once she enters the palace, won’t she be at her mercy?

Xie Qingyao responded softly, "Okay."

Princess Yong'an thought of something and said, "Oh, right, we are going to visit Madam Hou's Yunlin Villa next. Sister Yongle has been there and said it's good, so it should be nice."

"Madam Hou has such a talent for business. She was born to be a businessman."

Among the four classes of people, scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans, merchants are the lowest.

Saying that Xie Qingyao was born to be a businesswoman, doesn't that mean she was born lowly?

Although everyone knew that this was inappropriate, no one dared to remind Princess Yong'an, for fear of offending her.

In the frosty moon, Mo Zhu frowned secretly.

Princess Yong'an seems innocent, but every word she says is full of thorns. I really want someone to smash her mouth.
