"Mu Zi'an! I have indeed received a lot of help from you, but that doesn't mean I accept your feelings!"
"Although we are betrothed, I am the First Female Marquis of Dali, a role model for women throughout the land, while you are merely a commoner. How can you be worthy of me?"
"However, I, Lu Yunxue, am not an ungrateful person. After I marry Pei Lang, you can still live in the Marquis's mansion. You will remain my husband, Lu Yunxue."
"But I will not share a bed with you. In the future, if Pei Lang and I have children, I will take care of you in your old age and see you off in your final days. You can rest assured."
The area in front of the Marquis of Jin Guo's residence was bustling with noise.
Mu Zian stared ahead in a daze.
On a large chestnut horse, Lu Yunxue was wearing soft armor, with a long sword at her waist and a short bow on her back.
Her long, waterfall-like hair cascaded down to her waist, and her eyes, which usually smiled like crescent moons, now looked down at her with a completely emotionless gaze.
Before I could even figure out what was going on, countless memories flooded into my mind like a tsunami.
Seeing Mu Zian's shifty gaze, Lu Yunxue frowned slightly and raised her voice again.
Do you realize just how vast the gap is between you and me now?
"In the past three years, I have led troops in the north to fight the Xiongnu and conquer the Baiyue in the south, expanding our territory by thousands of miles!"
"His Majesty personally bestowed upon me the title of Marquis of Heroines with an urgent message, and also granted me a mansion in this precious capital city."
"This long sword in my hand has been stained with the blood of countless enemy nations and has achieved countless unparalleled feats."
"And you? You are neither good at literature nor martial arts, you are too weak to even kill a chicken, and you are not literate enough to bring peace to the world with your pen, nor can you conquer the world on horseback."
"If he didn't have the title of the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo, what difference would he be from a stray dog begging for food on the roadside?"
"You are not good enough for me!"
"I, Lu Yunxue, will live my own life and pursue my own happiness!"
As the pain subsided and the memories of the two souls gradually merged, Mu Zian finally came to his senses.
Looking at the crowd of onlookers surrounding him, Mu Zian felt rather helpless.
Great news! I've transmigrated, and my new identity is the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion in Dali! A top-tier nobleman!
Bad news! It seems my fiancée has a new boyfriend, and judging by the looks of it, she's already cuckolded.
Lu Yunxue, riding on horseback, looked arrogant, as if she wished she had two eyes on her chin to look at her.
As a seasoned keyboard warrior from later generations, Mu Zian instantly got into character.
The onlookers were whispering amongst themselves, as such a grand spectacle by a wealthy and powerful family was a rare sight.
"The Heroine is truly a role model for us women! I wish I could be as bold as her in pursuing my own happiness."
"This Mu Zi'an has truly disgraced the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion!"
The onlookers had various expressions, but without exception, they all felt disgusted by Mu Zi'an's behavior.
After all, in feudal dynasties, men were still respected. It was extremely rare in history for someone like Mu Zian to be humiliated in the street by his fiancée.
It's no wonder that he was looked down upon by the people around him.
The original owner of this body, Mu Zi'an, would call him the ultimate simp king! Li Zongheng, the Great Separation of Heng!
You should know that Lu Yunxue in front of you was just a widow of a soldier who was adopted by the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion three years ago.
However, the original owner of this body, who was the heir of the Duke of Zhenguo, was captivated by her at first sight.
From then on, Mu Zi'an would fulfill whatever Lu Yunxue wanted.
Lu Yunxue said he liked peach blossoms, so Mu Zian spent three million taels of silver to fill the entire capital city with peach trees!
Lu Yunxue then said she wanted to learn literature, so Mu Zian directly used the connections of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to invite Fang Yongbo, one of the eight great families of Dali, to personally teach her to read and write.
Later, when Lu Yunxue said she wanted to carry on her late father's legacy, Mu Zian not only invited Li Jiuxuan, known as the number one swordsman in Dali, but also broke the precedent of the Dali Dynasty that women could not serve in the army.
Later, when the contemporary Duke of Zhenguo, Mu Zhan, was fighting against the enemy in Yingnan, he was unfortunately defeated and died. His mother also died from excessive grief.
Everyone originally thought that Mu Zi'an would restrain his crazy displays of love for Lu Yunxue because of his parents' passing.
But unexpectedly, this directly broke the seal on his sycophantic nature.
In order to enable Lu Yunxue to truly go to the battlefield and fulfill her dream of making great achievements, Mu Zi'an did not hesitate to give up his position as Duke of Zhenguo!
He promoted Lu Yunxue from a minor officer to the commander-in-chief of an army, and entrusted her with the most elite elite elite unit of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, the Trapped Camp.
Thanks to the bravery and tenacity of the Trapped Camp, Lu Yunxue achieved a series of victories.
Meanwhile, Mu Zi'an was not idle either. He carried his father's coffin into the palace to meet the emperor, and managed to win Lu Yunxue the title of Marquis of Heroine.
Not only that, but he also sold off all the assets of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion to buy a piece of land in the capital city where land is extremely valuable for Lu Yunxue. In order to protect Lu Yunxue's self-esteem, he lied to the outside world that it was a gift from the current emperor.
Not only that, he personally supervised the construction of the Marquis's Mansion for Lu Yunxue day and night, filling it with all kinds of precious wood and stone as if it were free.
He took meticulous care of Lu Yunxue's mother and cousin, fulfilling their every request!
All of this was done in the hope that Lu Yunxue would return in triumph, and that the lovers would finally be together.
However! At this very moment! Lu An's years of dedication have resulted in such a tragic end.
Mu Zian took a deep breath and asked in a cold voice.
"Don't you remember those vows of eternal love from back then?"
