Chapter 309: Husband and wife turn against each other

"Your foolish opinion is wrong." Gu Huai said dissatisfiedly.

After saying this, Gu Huai walked away.

Your foolish opinion is wrong~

Yongning Marquis Mansion.

Main courtyard.

The gate to the courtyard was closed and no servants were allowed to approach.

Marquis Yongning's eyes were red as blood, anger boiling in his chest, and his hands turned into iron clamps to grip Marquis Yongning's wife's neck, gradually increasing in strength, as if he wanted to suffocate her under his palms.

Kill innocent people and take credit for it!

How dare you!

The wife of the Marquis of Yongning had bulging eyes and she struggled wildly, slapping the back of the Marquis of Yongning's hand, with her cheeks bruised and purple.

Only when he felt the struggle was getting less intense did Yongning Hou suddenly break away.

The wife of Marquis Yongning collapsed to the ground, gasping for breath, with a look of fear on her face.

The man next to her wanted to kill her.

"Divorced or buried, make your choice." Marquis Yongning looked at his wife coldly.

The Marquis' wife felt very guilty.

She had no idea how much the Marquis had found out.

The marquis returned to the main courtyard angrily, and after sending the servants away, he suddenly slapped her hard on the face without saying a word, and then grabbed her neck, almost suffocating her.

The wife of the Marquis of Yongning shuddered, holding her burning neck, and said in a hoarse voice, "Marquis, Marquis."

"You and I have been married for more than 20 years..."

"When you arranged for your mother's family to lend money in the name of the Yongning Marquis's Mansion, and allowed your mother's nephew to kill innocent people and take credit for it, have you ever thought about the fact that you and I have been husband and wife for more than 20 years?" The voice of the Yongning Marquis was full of disgust and coldness.

"I have never treated your family badly!"

"At this point, you either get divorced or you get buried."

"The Yongning Marquisate has been a noble family for a hundred years and cannot afford to be burdened by your family."

The wife of Marquis Yongning's eyes were red with anger and fear.

"Minghua and Minghui cannot have a mother who is abandoned."

"My Lord, for the sake of our long-standing marriage, please give me a chance to reform."

Marquis Yongning was indifferent. "You cannot have a mother who is abandoned, but you can have a mother who dies suddenly from illness."

"I will explain it to Minghua myself."

"As for Minghui, if you really don't want to leave, I can send her to accompany you."

The wife of the Marquis of Yongning's pupils shrank, and she knelt at the feet of the Marquis of Yongning, pulling at his outer robe. "My Lord, I really know I was wrong."

"The killing of innocent people and claiming credit for it was done very cleanly. No outsiders knew about it and it will not bring any harm to the Marquis' Mansion."

"My Lord, please forgive me this time."

Marquis Yongning laughed in anger.

He has been a scoundrel for most of his life, but he has never had the courage to kill innocent people and take credit for himself.

He was the Marquis of Yongning, and there were plenty of opportunities for him to be rewarded for his meritorious service in quelling civil unrest.

He doesn't dare.

But his wife dared!

"No one else knows about this?"

"Then how do I know?"

The wife of the Marquis of Yongning stammered, "Madame Wang is my dowry, and I trust and rely on her, so she knows all these things."

She already knew that Nanny Wang had committed suicide by hitting her head against the wall, and that the person she saw before she committed suicide was someone sent by the Marquis.

"No, not just Nanny Wang."

"I can't protect you anymore." Marquis Yongning ruthlessly waved away his wife.

Just like Lu Mingchao said, if she can know it, then others can naturally know it too.

"If you don't want to be divorced or die suddenly, there is another way."

"Write the complaint, knock on the door and expose in person what your mother's family has done."

"Then they will die and you will live."

"I'll give you one stick of incense to decide for yourself."

The wife of Marquis Yongning collapsed to the ground.

If a married woman reports her parents’ family who gave birth to her and raised her, is she still a human being?

Suddenly, she thought of Lu Minghui who was meditating in Chengchan Temple far away, and said hurriedly, "My Lord, if you trust me once, the Marquis's Mansion will surely be glorious and prosperous for a while."

"Minghui, Minghui can predict the future."

The wife of the Marquis of Yongning seemed to have grasped the last straw. She lost her mind, no longer weighing the pros and cons, and only had the most primitive instinct of survival.

Marquis Yongning froze.

Crazy!

It's really crazy!

"My Lord, it's true."

"I have evidence."

"On the night of the fire at Lanxiyuan, Minghui predicted that in mid-May this year, the two counties of Wanxing and Beiba under Yicheng's jurisdiction would be hit by heavy rains for half a month, causing floods and subsequent outbreaks of the epidemic. Wanxing County was particularly serious, with the epidemic spreading everywhere and nine out of ten houses empty."

"Before the rainstorm, Wanxing and Beiba counties had not seen a single drop of rain since late spring, and the land was dry and cracked, and the crops dried up."

"I sent my nephew to Wanxing and Beiba, but just as Minghui said, not a single drop of rain fell."

"My Lord, Minghui's ability to foresee the future can offset all her shortcomings."

"She said that if the Marquisate could be glorious and prosperous for a time, then it would definitely be able to do so."

Marquis Yongning stared at his wife as if she were a madman, smiled sarcastically, and asked, "Can you predict the future?"

"If she could really predict the future, why couldn't she foresee Gu Huai's breaking off the engagement, couldn't foresee His Majesty's accusation of the Marquis's residence, and couldn't foresee that she would become infamous?"

"So, was it her so-called foresight that deceived you into sending her to the palace, or was it your own greed that drove you to persuade her to break off the engagement?"

The wife of Marquis Yongning was shocked.

How would Lord Hou know?

That night, Nanny Wang had already been sent out of the Marquis's Mansion by her.

"It is a terrible disaster for the Yongning Marquis's Mansion to have a mistress like you!"

Marquis Yongning did not believe in the so-called prediction of the future.

People who can predict the future should be successful and prosperous, instead of being in a mess like Lu Minghui.

"You don't have to hold out for sending Lu Minghui to the harem to become a concubine anymore."

"I have ordered Dai Liang to ride quickly to Chengchan Temple and bring her a bowl of medicine that can disfigure, injure and sterilize her."

"According to the time calculation, Dai Liang should be back soon."

"I would rather raise a good-for-nothing daughter than a troublemaker."

"With no looks and no children, she will never be able to enter the palace in her lifetime."

Marquis Yongning also understood it.

A stupid and vicious person like Lu Minghui is only suitable to be raised in a remote and poor place with few people and no traffic.

"Minghui is your biological daughter."

"How could you be so cruel?"

The wife of Marquis Yongning asked in a trembling voice.

It sounds a bit pretentious no matter how you listen to it.

"Yes, she is my biological daughter."

"So, she returned to her roots, and I drove Chao Chao away."

"So, even though she killed her servant, I still planned a future for her."

"But, I am not only her father, I am the Marquis of Yongning. For the continuation of the Marquis of Yongning's mansion, anyone can be sacrificed."

"Do you think I have never been aloof, arrogant and high-spirited?"

"I can bend even my own pride, let alone a daughter who causes trouble everywhere."

"You should have seen my determination."

"One stick of incense."

“You only have one stick of incense.”

Just at this moment, the sound of "Pa Pa Pa" knocking on the door was heard.

"Master Hou, it's me."

Marquis Yongning frowned, "Dai Liang is back."

After opening the door, Dai Liang knelt on the ground with a thud, "My Lord, the eldest lady has been abducted."

Lu Minghui is crazy
