"What?……"
Yuan Xiao's hand holding the teacup trembled slightly and his eyes avoided.
Does King Xian still remember what happened back then so clearly?
"Your humble servant is stupid and needs your guidance, Your Highness." Yuan Xiao felt depressed. Wasn't he here to be assigned a task?
He actually talked about the past that he least wanted to remember!
The case that year was earth-shattering and almost brought disaster to the Yuan family!
Fortunately, they didn’t kill all nine generations of the family, but only slaughtered the entire Liu family!
Even Mrs. Yuan, who was far away in Lucheng, suffered the disaster, leaving behind a little girl who was only a few years old!
It was Yuan Xueyue.
"Don't you understand? I know everything about you."
After he finished speaking, Yuan Xiao was so scared that he quickly put down the teacup and knelt on the ground!
"I know I was wrong! I was possessed by a demon, but what happened back then had nothing to do with Liu!"
"You've been diligently performing your duties and governing this territory until now!"
"I beg Your Highness to please don't impeach me for my dedication!" Yuan Xiao was trembling with fear.
There was a hint of indifference in Dai Yixuan's eyes.
"It's good that you understand. If this is an imperfect couple, why insist on not letting go?"
Yuan Xiao was shocked, "Huh?"
Why did the prince suddenly say this?
What does this have to do with couples?
Dai Yixuan continued, "If you had let Liu go earlier, you wouldn't have ended up in such a dangerous situation, right?"
"Fortunately, the Liu family's injustice was soon redressed."
"Liu didn't have to die, but you forced her to death!"
"I heard that he left behind a daughter, the wife of General Guo, who serves under my command?"
Yuan Xiao suddenly understood and immediately agreed, "Yes, yes!"
"I'm not so heartless as to slaughter my own daughter. At least, I saved her life!"
"I didn't know that to be able to gain the appreciation of her husband by the Xian King, she also had to be loved by the Xian King!"
"Speaking of which, I would also like to rely on your grace, King Xian..."
"Hmm?" Dai Yixuan's eyes turned cold, causing Yuan Xiao to not dare to continue.
"I expect too much, Your Highness, please give me some pointers."
After saying that, Yuan Xiao bowed and asked for instructions, still kneeling.
Dai Yixuan said,
"This prince has no advice for you, but I am telling you that if a couple appears to be incompatible, you can let them go."
Yuan Xiao nodded repeatedly.
But I don’t understand at all!
What is it exactly?
Under pressure from King Xian, he left the palace.
Sitting in the carriage back to the prefectural government, he finally figured out what was going on!
He immediately asked the driver to hurry up!
Not long after, Yuan Xiao returned home.
The servant came to report, "The master is back!"
Yuan Ruiyu hurried out to greet him, "Father! You're back!"
Yuan Xiao's tone was slightly cold and his face was gloomy!
Obviously a little unhappy, he did not immediately pay attention to Yuan Ruiyu, but went straight to the main hall!
Cuiping glanced at Yuan Xiao and bowed slightly to show that she was a servant.
"What a rare guest!"
"I haven't been back for many years, and now I'm going to sever ties with the Guo family!"
"You are so brave!" Yuan Xiao shouted angrily, and sat in his seat with a solemn and cold demeanor.
But Yuan Xueyue was not moved by this, and still said calmly,
"It seems that the father knows everything, so the daughter will speak frankly."
"I, Yuan Xueyue, want to divorce the Guo family!"
"Whether my father agrees or not, I will go to the capital to file a complaint!"
"If you agree, that's fine. We can just discuss it between our two families. We won't have to bring it to the attention of His Majesty the Emperor."
"If you don't agree..."
Yuan Xiao was slightly surprised, "What would you do?"
Yuan Xueyue smiled, "Of course I'll file a lawsuit and ask my former allies of the Liu family... to seek justice for me!"
"No matter what, I must draw a clear line between myself and the Guo family!"
The solemn words landed on the ground, shocking Yuan Xiao so much that his eyes fixed.
The words that the String King said echoed in my mind...
If a couple is not compatible, it is best to let go!
Let go?
Leaving the way for building good relations with the King of Strings?
no way!
If we cut off contact with the Guo family, wouldn’t we also cut off contact with King Xian?
In the past, his Yuan family had negotiated with King Xian many times, but they were only able to force him to cooperate in hosting martial arts arenas and various competitions.
I helped King Xian, but there was no news at all!
Yuan Xiao still doesn't have much reputation, and he is still the prefect of these 180 townships!
Once Guo Liangxian is brought to see King Xian, he will be promoted to general and command tens of thousands of soldiers!
He was also awarded the old palace given by King Xian!
I heard that even after General Guo’s Mansion was put up, no one dared to say anything!
"Listen, this married daughter is so bold and tough!"
"Think about it, if you leave the Guo family, where will you go? Won't you just come back here obediently?"
"Do you really think you are still the young lady who just came of age?" Fang Fengai sneered, looking at him with a scornful expression.
"Aunt Fang, don't worry. I won't go back to the prefecture."
Yuan Xiao angrily pointed out, "If you're not coming back here, why are you asking me? Why don't you just go and complain?"
"No need to give me face! What you said, whether it's true or not, is it still giving me face?"
"You have absolutely no room for negotiation, right?"
Yuan Xueyue said, "Since father knows everything, please ask him to help us negotiate the divorce."
"Otherwise, don't blame my daughter for causing unhappiness between the two families, or even in the palace."
Yuan Xiao was shocked, "You, you...!"
Fang Fengai said, "Look! This is your good eldest daughter! Our Ruiyu is really obedient and won't choose a man randomly!"
I never thought, Yuan Ruiyu said,
"Mother, I don't think there's anything wrong with my brother-in-law!"
