Si Er immediately understood that the city lord originally liked this cousin and trusted her a lot, so it would be much easier for her to do whatever she wanted.
Lord Quan is his cousin's biggest backer; surely his cousin wouldn't intentionally try to harm him?
Yes, she does. She feels that Lord Quan deceived her, and she has always wanted revenge.
"Huh? Did Lord Quan lie to her? When?"
No, but when they were childhood sweethearts, Lord Quan once said that he would only love her for the rest of his life, and that he would be with her forever, marrying no one else.
As a result, Lord Quan married Lady Quan, and after taking her as a concubine, he refused to divorce her, so she also came to hate Lord Quan.
〖ah? 〗
Si Er was a little taken aback.
"Didn't she marry someone else first? Although Lord Quan is a complete scumbag, isn't this girl's hatred a bit inexplicable?"
Yes, but she never said when she was little that she would only marry the Lord of Quan City!
〖……〗
When she was little, she said she would love Lord Quan for life. Later, although she married someone else, she never fell in love with him!
So she didn't break her promise, but Lord Quan did.
〖……〗
Si Er thought this logic sounded a bit too strong, almost like robber logic, but he was almost convinced...
Of course, she hadn't originally planned to fight Quan Cheng; she was mainly encouraged by the Zerg.
[The Zerg are such troublemakers! But how did they instigate her? Did they possess someone, or were they contracted by her?]
The Zergling was a very beautiful butterfly. My little cousin especially liked flashy things, so she formed a contract with it.
[The reason she was persuaded by the insectoids was mainly because she discovered that Lord Quan's heart belonged to Lady Quan, and that compared to her three children, Lord Quan valued Lady Quan's eldest son, Quan Shaofeng, the most.]
She believed that only her son could inherit the position of city lord, and absolutely no one else could.
But the lords of border cities aren't hereditary; aren't they chosen based on merit?
However, she believed that Lord Quan was the strongest person in Xifeng City, and that with his help, her son could become the city lord.
However, the city lord was unwilling to help, which she saw as a sign that he didn't love her, so she hated him even more.
〖……〗
However, she'll probably have to wait another two days to make her move. Two days should be enough time for us to clear out the low-level demonic beasts outside, right?
It's okay if there's no time; just go and rescue them first, then...
Perhaps it doesn't have to be that complicated...
Si Er thought for a moment, then took out his communicator and contacted his older brother Si Yi. He told Si Yi about his little cousin's possible plot against Lord Quan and asked Si Yi to pass the message on to Quan Shaofeng.
As for how he knew these things, Si Er didn't say in detail, and Si Yi didn't ask in detail either. Anyway, he just relayed whatever Si Er told him to.
Quan Shaofeng wasn't surprised when he received the news. He had recently noticed that his father's concubine was looking at them strangely lately.
The woman used to look at him with malice, but when she looked at Lord Quan, her eyes held three parts love and seven parts resentment.
Now look at him, he's filled with hatred, he hates his father, and even when he looks at the rest point on the front lines, his eyes are filled with resentment.
It feels like her eyes are made of hatred right now; she looks at everything with hatred.
