Jiang Jintang only realized his foolishness at the moment of his death, foolish enough to believe that in such a world, there would be someone who would love only him wholeheartedly.
They were attracted to her by her knowledge and personality, but once they got her, they gradually became indifferent and even felt that she was too assertive and not as gentle and considerate as other women.
As for the original owner... he had already died long before Xuan Yu took power.
The original owner's father was actually faking it with the emperor. The original owner's father and the emperor were very good friends, and the emperor trusted the original owner's father completely.
As early as the first failure, the original owner's father had already noticed something was wrong, so he secretly gave the emperor a secret letter to tell him the situation.
So they conspired with the emperor to stage a play in an attempt to expose the spy behind the scenes.
But she never expected that her daughter would die in such an unseemly accident at this time.
Xuan Yu certainly wouldn't let his reputation be damaged, so after the original owner refused to break off the engagement, he thought of some things to cause the original owner's death in an accident, and in a very undignified way.
He made the original owner die with a stigma, and after her death, he hypocritically claimed that no matter what, the original owner was engaged to him, and he wanted to marry her so that she could have a place to rest in peace.
Both the original owner's father, who was unaware of the truth, and the female protagonist were moved at the time.
The original owner's father felt that the other party was kind and righteous. After his daughter had gone through such a thing, he still wanted to marry her and let her enter their ancestral hall so that she wouldn't become a lonely ghost.
However, the original owner's father felt that he could not harm him, so he refused his request.
The female lead thought the same way. Although Xuan Yu didn't like Wan Ge, she still wanted to give her a place to be buried after what happened to her, which showed her kindness and loyalty.
They had no idea what kind of beast Xuan Yu really was, nor did they know that the original owner suffered the stigma because he framed her, and that he was the one who killed her.
The original owner's father had been silently supporting Xuan Yu because of his actions, and Xuan Yu's rise to the throne was also largely due to the original owner's father's efforts.
However, the first thing Xuan Yu did after becoming emperor was to wipe out the original owner's entire family, including the imperial concubine who had raised him with all her heart.
…
Wan Ge covered her burning face with her hands, and when she looked up at Xuan Yu, her eyes were still full of tears: "Do you really have to break off the engagement with me?"
"Of course!" Xuan Yu kicked the woman in front of him again with disdain. If it weren't for her noble status, he would never have accepted her so quickly.
"I understand... I can agree to your request, but my father hopes that the Third Prince can help me..." Tears streamed down Wan Ge's face, making her look pitiful, just as she had before.
If she agreed to his annulment of the engagement, he would definitely sense something was wrong. Now that she had met Jiang Jintang, he must know something.
Wan Ge couldn't make it too obvious, otherwise the other party would suspect her identity.
There's no problem with things going this way. I can call off the engagement. Even though I love you very much, my father is also very important to me. I'm willing to grant your wish, but you have to save my father.
Xuan Yu sneered inwardly. Wasn't it just courting death to get involved with her father's affairs now?
