Wenwu knew perfectly well that his cousin was not as weak as she appeared; on the contrary, she was ruthless.
They weren't even married yet, and his cousin, Meng, had already set her sights on his backyard. She went on to kill several of his concubines one after another, acting as if she didn't know.
Unfortunately, he knew everything perfectly well, yet he couldn't disobey his family's orders.
This man, though seemingly muddle-headed, can be quite shrewd at times. But if you're talking about shrewdness, he's certainly made his fair share of muddled calculations.
He let his cousin in without really paying her any attention. His mind was still on Yue Niang, who was imprisoned. In his eyes, Yue Niang was the purest and most beautiful woman in the world, and no one could compare to her.
Unfortunately, Yue Niang hates him to death, but she has never had the chance to do anything about it.
After marrying into the family, Meng Shi thoroughly investigated all the grudges and then tempted Yue Niang to figure out how to get revenge. In the end, she completely betrayed Yue Niang.
Unfortunately, Yue Niang was foolish, and she was extremely grateful to her.
When festivals came around, Meng set up a scheme to frame Yue Niang and catch her in adultery, taking advantage of Wen Wu's absence to kill her.
If she had simply died and ended it all, Yue Niang might not have felt so resentful. But instead of dying, she was burdened with a filthy reputation.
Moon Lady was extremely unwilling.
But she's already dead, and there's no way to bring her back.
Lu Qingyan blinked, unable to believe that the story ended there. Who was Yue Niang's biological father? What happened to Wen Wuquan and Meng Shi in the end? He knew none of these things.
A spirit appeared before Lu Qingyan. Yue Niang looked at Lu Qingyan and made her request: "I hate Wen Wuquan, I hate the Wen family, I hate the Meng family. I beg you, you must help me take revenge. I don't want to die like that, forgetting everything."
As she spoke, crimson tears streamed down her face.
“My life shouldn’t be like this,” Yue Niang said bitterly. “Even if I were nothing, I shouldn’t have to live like this. I could live to be a hundred years old. No matter how useless I am, I won’t be a laughingstock to others.”
Having opened up, Yue Niang's anger had lessened considerably. She said, "Wenwu Quan didn't do many despicable things, but the only person he killed was my mother. My mother always thought about my father and basically didn't care about me much, nor was she close to me. Although I don't know what that father looked like or whether he's still alive, I've let him go. Later, he reformed and did many things that benefited the country and its people. Although I hate him, I don't want this pillar of the nation to disappear."
Lu Qingyan's lips twitched. She really didn't expect to hear such an answer, that they would even ask her to let the culprit off the hook.
However, since the other party was willing, she didn't say anything more.
Yue Niang said, "I can spare Wen Wu Quan, but you must not show mercy to the others." After saying that, Yue Niang left.
Lu Qingyan recalled Yue Niang's life story and remembered what she had said about Wen Wu Quan turning over a new leaf and becoming a pillar of the nation. For a moment, she felt a little contemptuous of her.
These so-called playboys, no matter how big their mistakes are, can mostly be forgiven as long as they show remorse.
But if an honest person makes a mistake, there will definitely be many people surrounding him, shouting for his death.
That's probably what they call human nature.
