"In that case, Princess Qi should divorce Prince Qi. This dog of a man bullied her two sisters. He should be thrown to the dogs."
As for the only daughter, she's unfit for marriage anyway, so it's better to just pretend she was never born.
Princess Qi kept her head down, revealing no expression, but her slightly trembling hands betrayed her true feelings.
Just as she had expected, her daughter didn't have much affection for her as her mother.
But her sister was unaware of the humiliation she had suffered.
Indeed, Xie Zhiyao is less useful than a piece of char siu. Early next year, Chai Jin will die, followed by Princess Qi succumbing to a cold.
Less than half a year later, Xie Linlang married into the Qi Prince's mansion as his second wife.
The most shameless thing was that the excuse King Qi used was that the sisters looked alike. King Qi was sentimental and missed his deceased queen, so he married his widowed sister who looked very much like her.
He had insulted both sisters in one fell swoop.
"How shameless! Was Chai Jin's death a natural one? Who killed Princess Qi?"
Chai Jin died because he drank too much water while rescuing Feng Linlang from drowning in the early spring chill, and his condition relapsed for several months.
The incident of Feng Linlang falling into the water was orchestrated by the King of Qi. The original plan was for him to jump in and save her, but unexpectedly, Chai Jin appeared halfway and saved his wife instead.
Later, Chai Jin fell seriously ill because of this, and the medicine he was given was replaced by someone sent by the King of Qi. Otherwise, since it had been soaked in water as well, why did Feng Linlang recover quickly, but Chai Jin died?
As for the plan, it was naturally devised by King Qi!
The matter was later discovered by Chai Jin's son, who also learned of his mother's grievances. On a dark and windy night, the mother and son devised a plan to push the King of Qi into a latrine and drown him.
This can be considered revenge for her husband and sister!
As for Princess Qi, she died within half a month of falling ill. The one who did it was naturally Prince Qi, Xie Qi, and the accomplices were the Crown Prince and his wife.
Well... Xie Zhiyao found out later, but by then Princess Qi was terminally ill and beyond saving, so she ultimately chose not to say anything.
After Princess Qi passed away, Xie Zhiyao used this as leverage to negotiate with Prince Qi, hoping to share power with the heir apparent. Although their family's rebellion hadn't succeeded, Xie Zhiyao was already preparing to become the Crown Princess.
Well, that's quite a long-term vision! Hahaha...
"When Consort Zhou was poisoning Emperor Mingxi, was Prince Qi involved?"
[Yes, and not just once! Consort Zhou slept with four men in her life. The first was Emperor Mingxi, the second was Chonghua, the third was her cousin, the guard Zhuo Fei, and the fourth was Prince Qi, Xie Qi!]
"Sisters sharing one husband, brothers sharing one wife! Is this some kind of thrill-seeking game?"
Feng Suiyu: Sisters sharing one husband! Let me be destroyed!
Emperor Mingxi: Brothers sharing one wife? What kind of wife is that vile woman! Destroy them all!
Yue Fuguang glanced subtly at everyone present, especially Emperor Mingxi. Seeing his increasingly dark face, she decided to give him a reminder.
Be more reserved, or she'll notice if you act unnaturally!
"Little Pearl, have you noticed that the atmosphere is getting stranger and stranger? The Emperor looks very angry! And Princess Qi is even trembling. What happened?"
"How about I try to check..." Before the system could finish saying "check," a snap followed by a crack... a loud bang interrupted Yue Fuguang's conversation with the system.
The sound of Emperor Mingxi slamming his hand on the table was the loud bang.
Behind them came the sound of a table being smashed to pieces by Mingxi. This noise startled not only the people in the hall but also the guards outside.
Seeing the eight guards who filed in after hearing the commotion, Emperor Mingxi waved his hand, ordering them to leave.
Then, looking directly at King Qi, he said coldly, "Xie Qi, kneel down!"
Then he said to Princess Qi, "Princess Qi, I heard from the Empress that you have something to report to me? Fortunately, the Empress Dowager is here now, so please speak freely."
He emphasized his last words, "Don't worry," and the clever Princess Qi immediately understood!
She immediately knelt down and kowtowed heavily before saying, "Your Majesty, Your Majesty the Empress Dowager, please grant me this favor! I want... I want a divorce from Prince Qi!"
"Why did you divorce the King of Qi? You and your husband were a harmonious couple, so why did things come to this?"
The Empress Dowager immediately responded, steering the conversation towards Princess Qi.
Princess Qi glanced at the Empress, then knelt before the Empress Dowager, pursed her lips, and said, "Your Majesty, please understand. Some time ago, because the Prince wanted to marry that girl Zhiyao into the Yu family, my daughter-in-law disagreed, and a dispute arose between her and the Prince over this matter."
My wife and I hadn't spoken for many days. The more my daughter-in-law thought about it, the more she felt that Zhiyao and the eldest son of the Yu family were not suitable for each other, so she went to the study to find the prince.
Who would have thought that outside the prince's study, they would hear joking and teasing coming from inside? The daughter-in-law assumed it was one of the bold concubines.
Knowing that the prince did not like to be disturbed at this time, the daughter-in-law decided to go back.
Just as I turned behind the flowering tree, the study door suddenly opened, and at the same time, I heard the prince instructing the servant at the door.
He said, "The princess is hungry, go to the kitchen and get her a bowl of bird's nest soup!"
At this point, Princess Qi paused, seemingly organizing her thoughts. She said, "At that time, I was thinking, I was clearly here, so why would the Prince say that the Princess wanted to eat bird's nest? Whose Princess was she in her room?"
The prince's personal servant went to fetch the bird's nest, but there was no one at the door of the study. The daughter-in-law mustered up her courage and went to check.
Who would have thought... who would have thought that upon looking, one would actually see... see the deceased concubine Hu sitting on the prince's lap, the two embracing... In order to have Hu's son attributed to his daughter-in-law, the prince actually made Hu fake her death!
"Now that the Prince has accepted Lady Hu as his Princess Consort, and his daughter-in-law is willing to abdicate, may the Empress Dowager and the Emperor grant their request!"
"You're lying, Lady Feng! You vile woman, you're slandering me!"
When King Qi heard his queen's words and looked at his brother and the empress dowager's faces, he clearly believed her.
He was immediately enraged. Although he had not broken off his relationship with Madam Hu, they had not seen each other recently due to other matters. Where did this idea of them having a secret rendezvous in the study come from?
The last time they met in the study was more than a month ago, and they still used the secret passage of the Prince's Mansion. The only people who knew about this secret passage were himself, Madam Hu, and their son. So Feng Suiyu was just bluffing him!
It seems that Qi Wang's harassment of Feng Linlang has been discovered by her husband, Chai Jin. Recently, he has not only been extremely protective of his wife, but also follows her everywhere when she goes back to her parents' home.
Chai Jin even secretly sent people to investigate him. King Qi inexplicably felt a crisis approaching and had already decided to kill Chai Jin. Little did he expect that before Chai Jin could cause any trouble, his own backyard would catch fire first.
"Mother, Imperial Brother, please see the truth! I... I just missed the late Lady Hu too much, so I found a woman who looked like her. The Princess Consort has misunderstood. There can be no other Princess Consort in my Qi Prince's Mansion besides Lady Feng."
"Another case of surrogate motherhood literature?"
