"I'm sorry, some things have happened, and that's it. From the moment you left home with Jinyu without a word, you made your choice. You chose the Chu family, and I accept it."
Now, I choose to end our relationship completely, and I hope you accept it.
"Nanxing, see the guests out!"
After Xie Yushu finished speaking, she turned and left. Xiao Yi wanted to chase after her, but Nan Xing stopped him with some indignation.
General Xiao!
My princess has already made it very clear that she has nothing to do with you anymore. Please do not disturb my princess again and please leave!
Xiao Yi said angrily
"What I do with her is none of your business, you little girl!"
Nanxing, who was already indignant on Xie Yushu's behalf, immediately retorted.
Why shouldn't it be your turn?
Yes, I am a maid, but I know at least that I am the princess's maid. I can say with my hand on my chest that my princess always comes first in my heart. My duty is to serve my princess tea and water, lead her horse and stirrups. Anyone who dares to bully my princess will have to step over my dead body first!
But what about you, General Xiao?
You used to be the princess's husband. Did you do what a husband should do?
When your parents and siblings bullied my master, did you protect them? You say your parents are elders, well, they've been caught in this mess. My master is unlucky, but what about your siblings?
Whether it's the sister-in-law or the sister-in-law, besides trying every excuse to ask for money, they also gossip and spread rumors, showing no respect for their sister-in-law whatsoever.
Why didn't you show the protective attitude a husband should have towards his wife back then?
With Xie Yujiao and Xiao Yan's foul mouths, if you had just used your authority as their elder brother to teach them a lesson even once, they wouldn't have been so arrogant. And how could Xiao Damei have felt at ease and openly tried to steal your house?
If you had shown even a little bit of protection for my master, how would your mother and the clan have dared to give my master a divorce so easily?
To put it another way, do you really care about my master as much as you seem to?
Then why did you accept the Emperor's bestowed marriage and those two beauties?
My mistress has made it clear to you several times: she will not share a husband with another woman. And what about you? Look at what you've done!
And why do you expect my master to understand you?
Now that I understand you, do you want my master, a first-rank princess, to go to your general's mansion and become your concubine?
You have such a big ego!
Nanxing's question left Xiao Yi speechless, unsure how to defend himself, yet feeling uneasy, he could only awkwardly reply...
"Of course I wouldn't wrong her by making her a concubine!"
"Bah! Your idea of enjoying the blessings of having two wives is the greatest insult to her!"
Nanxing and the others were all personally taught by Xie Yushu. The first lesson she taught them was never to become a concubine, never to put all their happiness on a man, and if they misjudged someone, they must be rescued from danger again and again!
Never get entangled with bad people and bad situations, wasting your time and energy. Try every possible way to extricate yourself from the situation.
Reflecting on Xie Yushu's actions throughout the journey, they realized she had consistently focused on self-improvement and extricating herself from the situation as early as possible. Looking at the princess's current achievements, they were filled with admiration!
Xie Yushu's words were regarded as golden rules by them, and to put it bluntly, they were more effective than imperial edicts!
Therefore, Xie Yushu and the people around her did not think that it was outrageous for a woman to ask for one man for life, nor did they have any ideas of being unvirtuous or jealous. On the contrary, they immediately understood Xiao Yi's implied meaning and spat at him in anger.
Xiao Yi, however, was a true ancient man. In his mind, he did not believe that a man could not take a concubine if he loved someone. Having three or four wives was normal. So why couldn't Xie Yushu agree to be his equal wife?
As a secondary wife, she could be on equal footing with Chu Mingzhu. He still entrusted the management of the household to Xie Yushu, and Chu Mingzhu should take good care of herself.
It is evident that Xiao Yi and Xie Yushu never took the initiative to communicate in the past, but now their two ideas, ancient and modern, have clashed fiercely!
Seeing that Xiao Yi was still not leaving, Nan Xing said without ceremony.
"General Xiao, let's go. Don't make things difficult for me. Today is our princess's housewarming celebration. If we start fighting, it won't look good for anyone!"
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yi, not wanting to spoil Xie Yushu's good day, returned home.
Before leaving, Nanxing said again
"By the way! General Xiao, although our princess won't say, I feel indignant on behalf of my master and would like to ask a question."
Your delicate junior sister sent two groups of assassins to intercept and kill my princess!
There were more than a dozen of us who risked our lives to prevent them from succeeding. If we hadn't been there those two times, our princess would have died at the hands of your junior sister!
Now that you know, I want to see what kind of explanation you can give my princess.
Xiao Yi hadn't expected this, and subconsciously said...
"Impossible! Mingzhu isn't that kind of person!"
"Ha! Even now, you're still questioning our princess."
"I'm not..."
"Who are you!
"I'm the princess's maid; don't you know her character? Do you really think someone she personally trained would be a sowing discordant, despicable, and liar?"
"General Xiao, I respect you as a good general, but you are truly unworthy of my princess!"
Xiao Yi's face turned pale at what he was being told, and he could no longer stand there calmly and say that he loved Xie Yushu.
But he knew clearly that he really couldn't bear to let Xie Yushu go. The indescribable heartache and loss he felt were no lie!
But would Chu Mingzhu really do such a thing?
She's clearly a naive, lively, and pretty little girl. The simple girl who can be happy for days just by catching a little rabbit for her—would she really send someone to kill Xie Yushu?
