Mixed with her whimsical ideas, it slowly began to twist.
Ultimately, it all turned into a figment of her imagination; in this world, she was the protagonist.
Everyone loved her, and she even killed that annoying Wenren Xunmi.
She watched with her own eyes as she hanged herself from that crooked tree, and the sheer pleasure she felt almost burst from her chest.
Wenren Xiang hesitated for a moment, then made a decision.
"Guards, throw Wenren Yunfei out. From this moment on, there is no young lady in the Prime Minister's residence."
"Remember this?" Leaving such a threat around will eventually destroy the entire Prime Minister's residence.
They had already planned to do this, but it was only because of the Crown Prince and the richest merchant in the land.
Putting everything else aside, her ability to seduce people is quite remarkable.
Unfortunately, just like his mother, who had been a prostitute, neither of them were any good.
Indeed, no one knew that Wenren Yunfei's mother was once a highly popular courtesan in a brothel, the kind who sold her art but not her body.
She wore a veil as soon as she stepped onto the stage, and no one has ever seen her true face.
After being bought back by the Prime Minister, his name was changed, and those who knew the truth were silenced.
But now it seems like a huge mistake.
Wenren Yunfei never expected Wenren Xiang to be so heartless; she was his own daughter.
He tried to struggle, but his body, still weak and aching from being kicked a few times, was unable to break free from the grip of those burly servants.
Without a shred of gentleness, Wenren Yunfei was thrown to the ground and watched helplessly as the gates of the Prime Minister's residence were closed.
The hatred in his eyes reached the heavens. Since you have all betrayed me, I will definitely not let you get away with it.
He struggled to his feet and staggered toward the Nangong residence.
She still has Brother Nangong and the others; she'll settle accounts with them when she's fully recovered.
The next day, the already bustling capital city was once again swept up in a wave of gossip.
It turned out that Prince An had once again visited the Duke's mansion to propose marriage, this time presenting a set of phoenix coronet and embroidered robe with gold thread and colorful decorations.
It is embroidered with a pair of lovebirds and intertwined branches, which are very lifelike.
The maids and servants who happened to see it were amazed by its extraordinary beauty.
The story spread like wildfire, eventually becoming the rumor that the prince had personally embroidered a unique wedding dress as a gift to Princess Roujia in order to marry her.
Upon hearing the news, Xunmi spat out a mouthful of water, completely losing her composure.
It would be good enough if Zongzheng Mufeng could even embroider a single flower, let alone embroider a wedding dress by hand. These people are overthinking it.
Zongzheng Mufeng, who had been standing nearby, quickly wiped the beauty's mouth.
Last night he finally swallowed the beauty whole, and that taste was indescribable.
As a result, he lost control and went overboard.
"Trying to please me won't work. You can sleep in the study tonight."
She glanced at the man with a cool look, showing no mercy whatsoever.
She knew this guy was a beast; if she gave him a little leeway, he would take two steps forward—a typical example of someone who would take an inch and then a mile.
She clearly said she didn't want it last night, but this guy insisted on making it on her.
She fainted twice in the end, and her face darkened again as she thought about it.
Men really shouldn't be spoiled!
"My beauty, you can't treat your husband like this, it breaks my heart."
"If you don't believe me, touch it." He grabbed the beauty's soft, boneless hand and pressed it against a certain spot without saying a word.
Let her feel the stirring below, his eyes blinking expectantly as he looks at her.
Xunmi got angry and pinched her hard without any politeness.
He gritted his teeth and said, "How come I didn't know that some people's hearts are located on the bottom?"
"Ouch, my beauty, be gentle, be gentle, are you trying to murder your husband?"
After being rescued from the beauty's clutches, Zongzheng Mufeng felt very wronged.
"This is your happiness for the rest of your life. What if it gets ruined?"
"You're shameless and filthy." Xunmi's chest heaved, her face flushed crimson.
Damn, my husband in this life is really... infuriating!
"I have teeth, look!" He grinned, revealing a set of bright white teeth that almost made people dizzy.
"It wasn't vulgar at all; it clearly all went into your tempting little mouth."
Pouting, Zongzheng Mufeng solemnly defended himself.
Xunmi slapped him across the face. This guy really infuriated her: "You're not allowed in my room or on my bed for a month."
If we don't teach him a lesson, he'll really turn the world upside down.
"Aww~~~No!" A mournful cry echoed throughout the entire palace.
The people in the Prince's mansion were already used to it; ever since the Princess Consort was brought back by the Prince, he hadn't had a single day without acting crazy.
Although the two are not yet married, the Emperor issued an imperial decree this morning to grant them marriage.
So isn't it normal for the future princess to live in the prince's mansion beforehand to cultivate her relationship with the prince?
This is the difference between Xunmi and Wenren Yunfei; the former understands the importance of first integrating into the era and then acting in a way that suits it.
The latter, however, considered themselves superior and more advanced than the people of this dynasty and looked down on the natives.
Little did they know the law that you can't fight city hall.
...
The Crown Prince's residence, where he had been confined for almost half a month, was filled with things that had been smashed.
The empress sat in the main seat, watching her son go mad.
"Haotian, I'm telling you, that woman cannot be allowed to live. Look at what people outside are saying about you now."
"You are the crown prince and will inherit the throne in the future. How can you leave such a hidden danger behind?"
She had always wanted the Emperor to remarry Wenren Xunxun to her son, but instead she received news that Princess Roujia had betrothed Prince An to her.
Even though I felt angry and resentful, this outcome was still the best.
As long as they are not the emperor's son, they pose no threat.
Prince An had personally promised that as long as all of his brother's sons were dead and there was no one to succeed him, he would not even glance at the throne.
Zongzheng Haotian slumped into his chair, utterly bewildered. He never imagined that such a kind and beautiful woman would do something like this.
He kept telling himself that she was forced into it by Nangong Muchen and that random stranger who appeared out of nowhere.
But there was always a knot in her heart: the person she had married and shared a wedding night with turned around and mingled with other men.
Seeing that her son had calmed down, the Empress continued, "What you need to do now is to apologize to your father."
"Then obediently listen to your father and don't cause any more trouble for me."
Zongzheng Haotian nodded, a resolute glint in his eyes.
He still has power. If he holds on to it, what can't he do once he reaches that position?
The Empress left satisfied. She wanted to go back and see which family had a daughter suitable for her son, so she could settle things as soon as possible.
The Crown Prince's wedding that time had long become a farce in the capital, and it was always talked about during casual conversations.
Wenren Yunfei, who was being thought about, hadn't had a great time these past few days, but it wasn't too bad either.
Because of what happened before, Nangong Muchen's shops have been greatly affected.
