Chapter 204: The Eight Characters Are Not Compatible with the Husband
Following his order, Qi Yi and Xiao Fei immediately took action. Soon, the room was in a mess and nothing was intact.
Yun Wansheng stood in the corner and watched the two of them smashing things without trying to stop them. She just watched them as if it had nothing to do with her.
Mu Xingci looked at the mess in the room with a cold brow, pursed his lips, and then glanced sideways at the woman who had been silent.
She was standing in a corner of the wall in a light green dress, and her usually cold and arrogant face was now tinged with a hint of pain.
"Do you really want to marry him?"
"Um!"
"Then you'd better think about it carefully. The day you get married will be the beginning of my revenge." Mu Xingci threatened with cold eyes without blinking.
"Whatever!" She wasn't really getting married, so why was she afraid of his revenge?
She just didn't want to tell him the truth. She could handle her own problems. If he knew about it, he would definitely get involved. She didn't want to owe him a favor.
When Mu Xingci heard the woman respond to him with only two words, and her fearless tone, he was so angry that he pointed at her with trembling fingers.
"Yun Wansheng, you're great! You're sure I won't dare do anything to you, right? Fine! We'll see! I'll let you know the consequences of angering me."
"I'll wait and see!" Yun Wansheng deliberately angered this arrogant man.
Mu Xingci pointed at her with red eyes and said nothing more. All the threats and warnings were in his eyes. Then he left Shangguan Mansion.
Seeing their master leave, Qi Yi and Xiao Fei looked at each other, with disappointment in their eyes. They thought their master would teach this woman a lesson this time, but he didn't expect that he would just smash something, threaten her and then leave.
Yun Wansheng looked at the mess on the floor, her eyes gradually moistening. "You son of a bitch! It's none of your business whether I get married or not. Can you even destroy my house?"
When Shangguan Lan came back, he saw the maid cleaning the messy and empty room.
"What happened? Who smashed it?" His expression was full of anger.
"Who else could it be? He just can't stand seeing me doing well." Yun Wansheng picked up some usable things on the ground.
Shangguan Lan heard this and immediately understood who she was talking about: "Why don't you tell him the truth?"
"Why should I tell him? He's not mine."
Shangguan Lan looked at the woman who was angry and really didn't know what had happened between them. He could see that his sister was not as indifferent as she seemed to be about this matter.
"Did he say anything?"
"He said that the day I get married will be the beginning of his revenge on me." Yun Wansheng chuckled.
"Then he won't be able to wait for that day." Shangguan Lan smiled in an unkind way.
"Let's not talk about him anymore. He's going to be mad to death!" Yun Wansheng said fiercely. That man had made her angry many times before. This time, she would just consider it as collecting some interest.
Mu Xingci returned to the Regent's Palace. As soon as he entered the house, he picked up a set of teacups and threw them to the ground to relieve his anger.
"Prince Regent, calm down. That woman is too arrogant. Does she really think we can't do anything to her just because she's associated with the Duke's Mansion?" Xiao Fei said angrily.
"Regent, Xiao Fei is right. You can't show mercy to her anymore." Qi Yi said angrily.
Mu Xingci sat on the stool in front of the table with a gloomy expression: "I know what to do, there is no need for you to speak up for me."
"It's good that the Regent knows." They said at the same time.
"All of you, get off!"
"yes!"
After they left, Mu Xingci was lost in thought for a moment. "Yun Wansheng, you can marry any man outside the capital, but you can't live under my watch. I'm afraid I might lose control and do something to hurt you."
The thought of her appearing in front of him with Tian Jinfeng in the future made him feel jealous. He wondered if he would still be able to refrain from disturbing her if that time really came.
On this day, when various forces heard that the Duke's Mansion was going to form a marriage with the Shangguan Mansion, they began to make their own plans.
The next morning, Tian Jinfeng went to East City accompanied by his elder sister Tian Shiniang. When they arrived at the fortune teller's residence, they quickly let them in.
When Zhang Xiangshi saw the visitor, he stepped forward with a slightly flustered look and said, "I greet the Duke."
"No need to be so polite! Master Zhang, there's no need to be so reserved in front of me. I'm a very easy-going person." Tian Jinfeng said in a good mood.
Xiangshi Zhang smiled and said, "I can see it. The Duke's face shows that he will be a general or a minister. He is destined to be rich, noble and auspicious."
He praised it with his mouth, but he was actually complaining in his heart. If his grandson had not been kidnapped, how could he be so spineless as to accept threats from others?
Tian Jinfeng was so happy after hearing his praise. Who doesn't want to hear nice words, especially from a famous fortune teller? His words carry much more weight than others.
"Master Zhang, my sister and I have come here to ask you to tell us about our marriage destiny. Here are the engagement letters between the Duke and that girl. Please take a close look at them." Tian Shiniang handed over the two festive engagement letters with a faint smile.
Zhang Xiangshi took it casually and said, "Please take a seat, both of you. I will give you a thorough examination."
Tian Jinfeng and his sister sat down and watched the fortune teller's operations with a serious expression. They watched him mutter to himself, count with his fingers, frown, smack his lips, and look at his face from time to time. The more they watched, the more they felt that this trip was not so smooth.
Sure enough, the result that Zhang Xiangshi said as soon as he opened his mouth was not what they wanted to hear.
"My Lord, I have calculated this carefully based on the birth date and eight characters on the Geng Tie. I am not targeting anyone. Please wait and listen to me until I have finished speaking without misunderstanding."
"It's okay, just tell me the truth if you have anything to say." Tian Jinfeng said with a slightly gloomy face.
"My Lord, first of all, your Geng Tie is definitely destined to be a noble person, there is no doubt about that.
But this woman's horoscope was not good. Judging from her horoscope, she was born in the coldest month of winter and late at night. Her fate was rough from birth.
Although she was born in a wealthy family, she became lonely and helpless early on, and her relatives around her brought misfortune to them because of her birth.
Because she is a person with a lonely star in her fate, she will be helpless in her old age. She will bring disaster to whoever she meets, especially the people closest to her. Even if she doesn't die, she will still suffer from disasters and will not be able to escape the fate of being gone before her in the end.
In short, she is a sign of a bad luck for both her mother and husband. Any man with a tough fate who marries her will suffer no good consequences.
After hearing this, the Tian siblings were stunned for a moment. After a while, Tian Jinfeng said in disbelief, "That's impossible! How could that woman, who looks so cheerful, be destined to be a jinx?"
"My Lord, I calculated her according to her horoscope, and I don't know what kind of person she is.
So, if you don't believe me, you can go and secretly inquire about her specific background. If she grew up smoothly, then my divination is wrong, and I won't accept your divination fee."
