The Prime Minister's mansion has hundreds of lives; how could he possibly erase them with just one?

Feng Yimu lowered his head, as if he knew why Feng Chenjiu had done that.

He didn't want to die because of Wan Ge; if he hated someone, he wanted to hate them thoroughly.

He will soon be exiled, and his sinful life may end in that bitter, cold place, or he may die before he even arrives.

…

Feng Chenjiu looked at the little bird standing on the table, and felt as if he had seen it in many places: "Your bird won't fly away unless you tie it up."

Wan Ge teased the little bird in front of her: "Your Highness is right. I don't know why, but perhaps I've tamed the little bird too."

Feng Chenjiu couldn't drink alcohol, and Wange couldn't drink alcohol in her current state either, so the nuptial wine was replaced with tea. After drinking it, Feng Chenjiu helped Wange remove all the pearl hairpins from her head and slept with her in the same bed.

…

After Wan Ge married the Crown Prince, the Crown Prince gave the Jiang family many things, from the Prime Minister to servants. When some maids and servants had sick family members, Feng Chenjiu even invited a famous doctor to treat them.

The Crown Prince's reason was to thank them for taking good care of the Crown Princess.

They didn't know that Wan Ge was atoning for her sins; she couldn't make amends to them in her past life, so she was trying her best to compensate them in this one.

…

Shao Qing'an and Liu Menggui got married four months later, and Wan Ge and Feng Chenjiu went to the wedding together. At that time, Wan Ge was actually six months pregnant, but she said four months to the outside world.

Anyway, she was already showing, and since Wange is quite slim and her clothes suited her well, she looked very pregnant, and no one doubted whether she was six months or four months pregnant.

When Shao Qing'an and Liu Menggui came over to toast her, Wan Ge still substituted tea for wine and only congratulated him.

Wan Ge, citing their friendship, sent them many gifts.

The others initially thought that Wan Ge and Liu Menggui weren't that close, but then they remembered that they lived very close to each other and had even sat together at the poetry gathering before. Perhaps they really were good friends, but they just hadn't noticed it before.

Although they were somewhat surprised that the Crown Princess had sent them so many gifts, they were mostly envious.

Shao Qing'an and Liu Menggui's eyes both fell on Wan Ge's belly. In fact, they had heard the news that she was pregnant a long time ago.

Liu Menggui knew that Shao Qing'an probably had no chance. That day, seeing him drunk alone, Liu Menggui drank two cups with him and chatted with him for a long time.

Finally, Liu Menggui asked him if they would still get married.

Shao Qing'an looked at her, and as the lights flickered, thinking about how the other person had been by her side all this time, she asked in return, "Do you still want to marry me?"

Liu Menggui remained silent for a long time. It wasn't a question of whether she wanted to marry him or not, but rather that only by marrying him could she ensure that Wan Ge wouldn't retaliate against her.

The Third Prince has already been exiled, and that woman has been executed. All that's left is herself, and she's really worried that she'll be the next one to suffer.

Should I tell her that it's all her fault and has nothing to do with the Liu family, and if she wants to make him hate me, should I just punish him?

She might be able to understand her.

Seeing her silence, Shao Qing'an understood that she did not intend to annul the engagement, and replied, "After you marry me, I can give you complete freedom. You can still do whatever you want. If you meet someone you love, I can divorce you."
