Chen Wei was prepared for Xie Yuchuan to come and accuse her for no reason, because no matter what she did, as long as it was not in line with Xie Yuchuan's wishes, he would stop her.
Hearing Xie Yuchuan's last words, Chen Wei raised his eyebrows and a sarcastic smile appeared on his lips.
Her eyes were as clear as water, as if they could shine into people's hearts: "Really? Just like before, I was trapped in this mansion, hoping day and night that you could come and accompany me?"
"But Xie Yuchuan, you forgot that you didn't come to accompany me, and you even disliked me for becoming like the wives and concubines in the mansion, who only knew how to be jealous and compete for favor."
"At that time, you also said that I had changed."
"But you clearly know that I'm not that kind of person. I'm pursuing love, but I also have my own thoughts and ideas. I have my own ambitions. You knew it the first time you met me."
"You forgot what you said. You said I was an independent and passionate woman. When you coaxed me to go back to the capital with you, you said with your own mouth that we would be together for life. I can be myself, and you will support me no matter what I do."
"Now you're saying that women stay at home and men stay outside? You're forcing me to revolve around you alone."
"Xie Yuchuan, you are the fickle one, not me."
Xie Yuchuan didn't know whether he was irritated by what Chen Wei said or because he couldn't argue with Chen Wei.
He faced Chen Wei's sneer without a trace of guilt on his face.
Instead, he firmly accused Chen Wei.
"The capital is different from the frontier. I understand that you need to survive in the frontier, but this is the capital, and you must accept the rules of the capital."
The sneer in Chen Wei's eyes grew deeper and deeper.
Accept the rules here?
Then what?
Being assimilated, having your freedom taken away, never being able to be yourself, having to be a slave for the rest of your life, living under the yoke of your husband?
Chen Wei suddenly thought of the ending of the modern Bubujingxin, and her eyes were dazed for a moment, but she never wavered in her thoughts.
She looked at Xie Yuchuan with a half-smile and said, "Xie Yuchuan, since you like to follow the rules so much, you should go find another concubine in the mansion."
"They will always put you first and comply with all your ideas, but I won't."
"If you have nothing to do, please don't bother me. Please go ahead."
Xie Yuchuan looked at Chen Wei, his heart burning with anger: "I finally understand now. It's all my fault for being too indulgent towards you. I shouldn't have been so soft-hearted towards you!"
"I've brought you back to the capital for so long, why can't you understand me a little? There's no other noble lady in the capital who doesn't know the rules like you!"
"Instead of letting you go out and show off, or open a women's martial arts school and bring shame to the Marquisate, I think it would be better to lock you up in the courtyard and learn the rules."
"When you have learned the three virtues and know your mistakes, I will let you go."
Xie Yuchuan knew Chen Wei too well and knew that Chen Wei liked freedom.
But he just wanted to imprison Chen Wei's freedom and force Chen Wei to change all his previous words, deeds and thoughts.
It was obvious that what Xie Yuchuan liked at the beginning was her uniqueness.
But now, he felt that she was out of place in the capital, and wanted her to learn to be like the people here, or at least not disobey his orders like this.
When Chen Wei heard this, he felt grief and indignation.
What made her feel aggrieved was not Xie Yuchuan's attitude towards her, but what made her sad was that women in this era had no human rights. They had to obey their fathers at home and their husbands after marriage, and they could never make their own choices.
No!
She had been here for so long, and had been indoctrinated with old ideas by the people around her, that she almost forgot one thing.
She immediately realized that she had no status as a marquis and was not included in the official record, so she was completely free.
Chen Wei smiled at Xie Yuchuan, his smile was a bit carefree and a bit sarcastic: "You want to imprison me in the Marquis' Mansion? Xie Yuchuan, I'm afraid you forgot one thing!"
