"Dan...Danning?"
Song Changke, who was already on the verge of death, was frightened by the sudden appearance of someone at the door. He trembled all over and immediately collapsed.
Then he pulled up the quilt that had just been kicked to his feet and wrapped himself in it, completely ignoring the other naked person next to him.
"What's wrong? What happened?"
The villagers who were gathering at the gate of the courtyard heard the noise coming from the courtyard and came in one after another.
"ah!"
Seeing more and more people gathering at the door, Yao Shuang'er, who had just been frightened and stunned, suddenly reacted and screamed at the top of her lungs.
He raised his arms and hugged his body tightly.
Princess Denning glanced at her with some disgust, but finally moved half a step to the side, slightly blocking part of the view coming in from outside the door.
"Danning, listen to my explanation. Things are not what you think!"
Song Changke pointed at Yao Shuang'er, "It was her. She took advantage of me being injured and unconscious to seduce me!"
"Danning, you have to believe me. We have been together for so many years, and you are the only one in my heart..."
"Brother Song!" Yao Shuang'er stared at Song Changke in disbelief, her eyes full of hurt, "How could you say that to me?"
It was true that she seduced him, but she was only gentle, considerate and caring.
The person who really coaxed her into bed, said he would give her a name, promised her wealth, and made her not regret following him, was him!
In an instant, Yao Shuang'er's eyes were red.
There was only coldness in Song Changke's eyes, without any of the warmth he showed when he coaxed her to bed.
When he turned to look at Princess Daning, his eyes, which were devoid of a trace of warmth, tried to gather deep affection, "Daning, you also know that for all these years, I have only had you and never had anyone else."
"When I was in Beijing, my colleagues wanted to take me to those romantic places to have fun, but I never agreed."
"I have never even looked at the beauties in Beijing, so how could I be attracted to a country girl like this?"
Village...village girl?
Yao Shuang'er's body suddenly froze. A few merciless words hit her hard.
She was just a country girl whom he looked down upon. So were all the tenderness and care she had shown him in the past few days fake?
"Oh, you liar!"
"Unfaithful man!"
Song Changke wrapped himself tightly in the quilt, avoiding Yao Shuang'er's nails that were scratching at his face, and shouted angrily, "Shrew!"
“It’s unreasonable!”
The scene became increasingly chaotic. Fortunately, several ladies who came with Princess Daning blocked the door, preventing others from seeing the scenery inside.
However, these ladies inadvertently glanced at Song Changke several more times.
It's true, this beast with a human face and a beast's heart did very unkind things, but his appearance was first-rate, and his skin was whiter than that of a young girl.
Song Changke looked tall, but in fact he was just a weak scholar with injuries on his body. He was no match for Yao Shuang'er, who often went hunting in the mountains with her brother.
In a short while, several bloody scratches appeared on his face.
He was so angry after being beaten that he didn't even bother to hold on to the quilt to wrap his body so that others wouldn't see him. He raised his leg hard and was about to kick Yao Shuang'er.
“That’s enough!”
Princess Daning spoke in a cold voice.
Song Changke's raised leg froze there, and Yao Shuang'er took the opportunity to grab him twice, causing him to grimace in pain.
"Heh." Princess Danning sneered.
Watching the farce of the two people, she felt more and more that the true face of the person beside her was different from what she had seen before.
It was just like the scene I saw when I kicked open the door, so disgusting!
I was probably blinded by greed in the past, otherwise how could I feel that such an irresponsible, hypocritical beast was a match made in heaven worthy of entrusting my life to?
"Dannin, listen to me..."
"Listen to shit." It was the first time in Princess Daning's life that she said such vulgar words, but in her heart, only such words were worthy of Song Changke at this moment.
Her heart, which had originally been concerned about him, had already completely cooled down.
She was on the mountain, shedding tears, while he was at the foot of the mountain, enjoying himself and not wanting to leave, completely ignoring her life or death on the mountain.
What's so special about a person like this that she should still care about him?
"No need to explain further, no need to show loyalty, from now on you can hang out with whoever you want, I'll find it dirty to look at you any more!"
"Danning, do you want to divorce?" Song Changke looked at Princess Danning in disbelief.
"Divorce?" Princess Daning sneered, "Do you think you are worthy?"
"This princess only divorces her husband, not divorces him!"
…
When the Wei family received the message from Tianshu Pavilion, their convoy was already approaching the city gate of Beiguan.
There is less than half a day left.
I don't know what Mr. Xiao was thinking, he actually attached the detailed story of Princess Daning and her husband written by his subordinates to the mailbox.
After reading the two-page letter, Wei Yunlan was surprised and said, "I didn't expect that Princess Daning would really make up her mind to divorce her husband."
In her previous life, this princess also followed her husband to the north, but was never able to return to the capital.
While wandering in the backyard of the Marquis's mansion, Wei Yunlan once heard Xue Linglong chatting with others about how Princess Daning's husband was a ruthless person who had pretended to be well behaved in the capital, but his true colors were revealed when he arrived in the far north.
It is said that he was quite popular in the officialdom of the North, and successively took in several beautiful concubines. He also prevented the princess from communicating with the capital to file a complaint, and finally made the princess depressed and died in the North.
If Prince Duan had not become suspicious and secretly hired people to investigate in the north, this matter would never have been revealed.
However, even though Prince Duan finally found out that the princess' death was related to her husband Song Changke, Emperor Xiaoming did not punish Song Changke in the end because many people in the court protected her.
In a rage, Prince Duan went to the north and stabbed Song Changke to death with a sword, and he himself could not return to the capital. It is said that after killing Song Changke, he committed suicide on the spot.
This news spread probably five or six years later, when Emperor Xiaoming decided to let Princess Changping marry the northern barbarians.
Even people in the backyard of the marquis's mansion mentioned it, so it must have caused an even bigger uproar in the capital.
Wei Yunlan didn’t think deeply about it at that time, but now it seems that he is full of doubts!
Combining the recent events in Huangzhou, an increasingly clear line gradually emerged in my mind.
Song Changke made his fortune with the help of Princess Daning and Prince Duan's Mansion and had no other support in the capital. So why did he later receive protection from someone in the court?
Emperor Xiao Ming would rather offend Prince Duan than punish him?
It was those people in Beijing who acted as backers of the northern officials who took action!
In the previous life, after Song Changke arrived in the North to take up his post, he must have become involved in the conspiracy with Lin Jian and others, and got involved in the collusion with the Northern Barbarians.
The death of Prince Duan is probably not that simple.
Wei Yunlan couldn't help but sigh as he stroked a few thin pieces of letter paper in his hands.
Unexpectedly, the series of subsequent events triggered by her impersonating Princess Qinghe in this life accidentally changed the fate of Princess Daning and Prince Duan in the previous life.
