"Although your father is not a philanderer, his ability is not as great as the power of the Minister of War."

"It's not that he doesn't want to flirt with other women, it's that he doesn't have the ability to do so."

"There are no perfect people. There must be something you have to endure."

"You enjoy the wealth and honor of the Minister of War's Mansion, so you must tolerate Chu Liangxu's shortcomings."

"I enjoy your father's peace and quiet, so I have to tolerate his incompetence."

"The moon waxes and wanes, and life is hard to be perfect. It won't be smooth sailing and satisfying."

"If you find another man to marry after you divorce Chu Liangxu, then if something else happens that makes you unhappy, will you still divorce?"

"If you divorce me when life gets unsatisfactory, won't you become a laughing stock in the imperial city?"

"Who will dare to marry you in the future?"

"Mother doesn't want to see you being bullied by that bastard. If you insist on getting a divorce, you should get some money to keep yourself safe."

"If you want a divorce, then I'll have to scrape off a piece of flesh and blood from the Minister of War's mansion."

"If you can get 100,000 taels of silver from the Minister of War, mother will agree to your divorce from him."

Min Xianning was no longer just shocked, she was completely dumbfounded.

"What? One hundred thousand taels of silver?"

Min Xianning screamed so loudly that her face and mouth hurt, her head ached, she felt dizzy, and she even felt like vomiting.

Yun Jinghua said with heartache.

"Don't get excited. The doctor said you need to rest well. You hurt your head and have a concussion. You need to rest for a while."

"Mother, this huge amount of money is not just a bloody loss, it's like skinning the Minister of War alive, isn't it?"

"How could the Chu family possibly give me so much silver?"

"Are you crazy about money? Or has Big Brother gotten into trouble again? Did he go to the gambling house again?"

"His hands are broken, but he still wants to gamble? Aren't you afraid that the blue hammer will break his legs too?"

Yun Jinghua had a heart attack when the blue hammer was mentioned.

"Don't mention that woman. Your brother is very honest."

"I asked you to have so much money because I was thinking about you. Only with money can you have the confidence to live on your own. Otherwise, what will you do if you have no hope for the rest of your life?"

"If you want to beat, kill, or drown someone at any time, which family in this imperial city would dare to hire you?"

"You can only find an ordinary family to live with, but ordinary families can't afford to support you."

"Mother said this for your own good. You need to think carefully about the consequences of the divorce."

"You usually spend money lavishly and can't save money even if you have it. So what can you do if you don't have a little more money?"

"I heard that two days ago, in order to buy the complete set of the two volumes of Yang Guifei, you even used the treasury silver of the Minister of War's Office and spent 100 taels of silver."

"This one hundred taels of silver is not a huge sum of money for the Minister of War."

"But for ordinary families, even ten taels of silver is a huge sum of money."

Min Xianning remained silent, feeling that what her mother said made some sense.

After careful thought, she agreed with what her mother said.

Being divorced is impossible. Min Xianning will never be an abandoned woman. The worst that can happen is a divorce.

It wasn't her fault that she drowned her mistress and illegitimate child.

The Minister of War hid the marriage from her and tricked her into marriage.

This matter was exposed only after I married into the mansion.

I'm afraid any noble lady wouldn't be able to bear it.

Why should she, the high and mighty leader of Qixia County, endure this?

She also has a noble status and is half royal.

It is absolutely impossible to be bullied by the Minister of War.

As proud as she was, she decisively drowned her concubine and illegitimate son in the lake.

She just wanted to let the Minister of War know that she, Min Xianning, would not tolerate any sand in her eyes, let alone a concubine and an illegitimate child?

This is what will happen if you provoke her.

If there is another woman who has an affair with Chu Liangxu, this concubine and illegitimate child will serve as a warning to her.

Min Xianning stayed in the palace for a few days, and then the Minister of War's office came to ask for help.

The wife of the Minister of War came with Chu Liangxu to pick them up in person.

The eldest princess Yun Jinghua did not give the wife of the Minister of War any face at all.

As for Chu Liangxu, he was dragged away and beaten by the guards when he entered the palace.

When beating a dog, you have to consider the owner, let alone her daughter.

"Madam Chu, my good son-in-law is very brave. He doesn't take me, Princess Zhaoyang, seriously at all."

"You dare to touch this princess's daughter?"

Yun Jinghua glanced at the wife of the Minister of War leisurely, with a cold look on his brows.

Mrs. Chu smiled apologetically.

"Princess, my son has a violent temper. This has been going on for a long time. He has had this problem for a long time. This is a disease."

"The doctor said he was ill, and he was ill. What can be done?"

"Please forgive him just this once, Princess."

"I will keep a close eye on him in the future and will not allow him to take action against the county lord again."

Yun Jinghua shouted sternly and threw the teacup in his hand onto the tea table.

"This violent temper is a disease, is keeping a mistress also a disease?"

"Mrs. Chu, your family is a fraudulent marriage. You deceived me like this. Where does your family regard the reputation of my royal family?"

"Your Chu family is so outrageous that you even dare to deceive my royal family!"

Mrs. Chu was flexible and resilient. Facing Yun Jinghua's call for punishment, she humbled herself and acted modestly.

"Princess, calm down. It was my Shangshu Mansion that did not handle this properly."

"But you should have seen and heard about the days when the county lady lived in my house after her marriage."

"It is because I know I have done something wrong that I, as a mother-in-law, have never been harsh to the county lady."

"As for the fact that I'm a bit of a jerk, I don't like that either."

"Today I promise the Princess that in the future, my Shangshu Mansion will treat the County Lady even better than before."

"I will definitely not let the county lady down again."

In this matter, saying nice things is just showing an attitude of humbleness and apologizing.

Even this time when she entered the palace, Mrs. Chu brought a lot of valuable and fresh gifts.

There were canned strawberries, raw chocolate dumplings, candies, and spicy strips, all of which were valuable and fashionable products in Xichuan. Yun Jinghua's anger subsided, and the event ended with much ado about nothing.

Just when everyone thought the matter was over, Chu Liangxu unexpectedly became obsessed with sex and insisted on divorcing his wife.

In the end, he took a step back and did not divorce his wife, but chose to divorce.

But Min Xianning offered 100,000 taels of silver as compensation for the divorce.

This is tantamount to asking for too much. How could Chu Liangxu agree to it?

Instead, he couldn't control his anger and beat Min Xianning violently again.

This time, the eldest princess was completely enraged, and the Chu family and Yun Jinghua became completely enemies.
