Marrying a wife and a concubine together? Wouldn't it be better to divorce and become the queen

Chapter 63: A fire breaks out in the backyard. She must not die easily.

At this time, Xilingxuan.

"Your Majesty, Shu Yao is fine. Today is your big day. You should stay in the bridal chamber with your bride. Don't stay here. Go back quickly."

After Bai Huazang's treatment, Feng Shuyao was finally woken up.

Feng Shuyao lay weakly on the bed, her face pale. The dark spots on her cheeks, neck and body that had almost disappeared gradually reappeared, looking particularly glaring against her fair skin.

Xie Yan held her hand, his eyes full of tenderness:

"You are so sick, how can I bear to abandon you? I will leave you when you fall asleep."

Feng Shuyao said softly, "Your Majesty, Shuyao knows that you love Shuyao and is very touched. But as a woman, Shuyao also knows that Miss Di must be looking forward to you going back to accompany her. Tonight is the most important moment in Miss Di's life. You must not make her sad because of Shuyao."

She advised with tears in her eyes, she really didn't want Xie Yan to stay here any longer.

Di Manli is not like Feng Qingluan. She has a bad temper. And with Princess Zhaoyang as her good friend, she will definitely not swallow her anger. Maybe she is angry in the bridal chamber right now and wants to cut her into pieces.

Xie Yan was moved, "Silly Shuyao, you always think about others, you are so sensible that this king feels distressed. This king will ask Bai Huazang about some situations and then go back, you have a good rest."

He tucked the quilt for Feng Shuyao, stood up and walked out the door.

Bai Huazang was waiting outside. Xie Yan asked:

"Why did Shu Yao's condition relapse? Didn't the medicine and ointment Feng Qingluan gave her have good effects before?"

Feng Qingluan was a person of her word. She did not deceive him about the medicine she gave him, and it was very effective for Shu Yao's condition.

But in just less than ten days, Shu Yao's signs of relapse of poisoning became serious again, and the black spots looked larger and deeper than when the poison first broke out, which made him worried.

Bai Huazang said, "Your Highness, the concubine's condition did improve before, but for some reason she has been feeling heavy-hearted and depressed these past few days. She even had nightmares at night and woke up from them. Her mental energy was greatly exhausted, causing her mood to fluctuate, which led to the recurrence of the poison."

"You said she had mood swings. What's going on?"

Bai Huazang didn't know that Feng Shuyao's emotional fluctuations were caused by seeing the murder scene and having nightmares every night about people asking for her life. He guessed:

"It may be that the prince divorced Miss Feng and married Miss Di. These events one after another made the concubine feel unstable."

Xie Yan said, "Shu Yao is worried. No matter who I marry, she is the only one in my heart. You just said that the ointment she used to treat dark spots is gone. Can you make it?"

Bai Huazang's palms were sweating, and he stammered:

"Some of the medicines Miss Feng used are very strange. I can't make the same ointment as she gave me. I can try something else."

The ointment made by Feng Qingluan not only had rare medicinal materials, but some of the ingredients were even unidentifiable by him, so how could it be made?

Xie Yan said: "Women love beauty. No matter what method you use, you must cure Shu Yao's dark spots."

Bai Huazang said, "Yes, Your Majesty."

He gave instructions here, and a maid outside the courtyard ran in panic to report:

"My Lord, something bad has happened. The concubine is coming..."

As soon as she finished speaking, Di Manli had already arrived at the door of Xilingxuan.

She was wearing a bright red wedding dress, her face was filled with murderous intent, and the kitchen knife in her hand shone coldly in the moonlight.

"Feng Shuyao, you vixen, how dare you seduce the prince to your courtyard on the day of my wedding? I will kill you today!"

She saw Xie Yan standing in front of the door. She rushed over and tried to go in, but Xie Yan stretched out his hand to stop her.

"Stop! Shu Yao is my woman, dare you touch a hair on her?"

Di Manli sneered: "Your woman? She is just a concubine. I am your woman! King Chu, I am not Feng Qingluan. How can I tolerate such humiliation on your wedding day? Today I must kill this little bitch. Get out of the way!"

If she followed Feng Qingluan's footsteps and ended up alone in an empty room tonight, then what would be the point of her longing to marry the King of Chu?

Xie Yan's face was livid. "Di Manli, Shu Yao just advised me to go to your place. She cared so much about you, but you came with a knife to kill her. You are so jealous and have no tolerance at all. I can't imagine what will happen if you take over the Chu Palace. For the sake of your father, I won't bother with you tonight. Go back to your room. Otherwise, I can marry you or divorce you today!"

Xie Yan was already upset because of his divorce from Feng Qingluan, and Feng Shuyao fell ill again. Di Manli came at him at this time, and his anger rushed to his head, and he spoke without mercy.

The words "divorce you" shocked her more than killing Di Manli. She roared:

"Xie Yan, for that bitch, you actually said you wanted to divorce me on the day of our wedding? Your Majesty has granted me marriage, if you dare to do this, I will report it to Your Majesty tomorrow, and the entire Zhennan General's Mansion will be irreconcilable with you!"

Di Manli also became angry, and the severity of her words was no less than what Xie Yan had said. As the two sides confronted each other, no one else in the courtyard dared to make a sound. For a moment, the entire Xilingxuan was so quiet that you could hear a leaf falling to the ground.

After a long while, Xie Yan sneered, "Di Manli, do you think I am willing to marry you? Zhaoyang has confessed everything you did. If you dare to bring the matter to the emperor, what crime will you be guilty of, and what crime will be charged against the Zhennan General's Mansion? I don't need to tell you."

"you!"

Di Manli was furious. She clenched the kitchen knife in her hand tightly and her body was shaking with anger.

Zhaoyang confessed?

What did you confess?

The man in front of her looked calm and composed, with the corner of his mouth slightly raised, as if he saw through her completely. Di Manli felt inexplicably flustered.

If the King of Chu knew that she had used some tricks to climb into his bed, she would be charged with the crime of debauching the prince, and if she was held accountable, she would not be the only one to bear the blame.

The reason why Xie Yan married her reluctantly was that he wanted the military power in her father's hands. Di Manli understood this from the beginning to the end.

After Xie Yan said this, Di Manli's arrogance subsided a little.

The two sides were in a stalemate and no one dared to come out to persuade them.

At this moment, Feng Shuyao, supported by Zhinan, came out tremblingly, holding onto the door frame and spoke weakly:

"Your Highness, Concubine Sister, please don't quarrel over Shu Yao... cough cough cough... Today is a festive day, and Shu Yao is not in good health, which worries Your Highness and Concubine Sister.

My sister is so generous. I feel bad for visiting you on your wedding night. When I feel better, I will definitely bring a gift to thank you."

She was really feeling uncomfortable and wanted to be quiet for a while. She didn't want to compete for favor at all, but Xie Yan didn't leave and attracted Di Manli. If she stayed in the room without saying anything, she would not get any quiet.

Seeing her come out, Xie Yan immediately supported her with concern:

"Shu Yao, you are still sick, go back to bed, I will take care of the matter here."

Di Manli thought Feng Shuyao was faking her illness, but now she saw that she was so weak that she looked like she would be knocked down by a gust of wind, and the ugly black spots on her face were so ugly.

Seeing her like this, Di Manli's anger dissipated a lot.

Xie Yan was worried that Feng Shuyao would be provoked again, and he didn't want to make things too awkward tonight, so he looked at Di Manli and said:

"You see, Shu Yao is so sick and still wants to persuade us. Don't make trouble anymore. I will go to see you later. Butler, send the concubine back."

Yingchun gave Di Manli a wink.

Di Manli knew that she had something to say, and the King of Chu gave her a way out, so she stopped pestering and turned away.

On the way, Di Manli asked Yingchun: "What do you want to say?"

Yingchun said, "Miss, we can see that my little concubine is ill, and she is very ill. Instead of competing with her for favor in public and making the prince unhappy, why not give her some medicine in private to make her feel better?"

Di Manli rolled her eyes and said with a fierce smile:

"You are smart. I'll leave this matter to you. You must torture that woman and don't let her die too quickly."

Yingchun smiled and said, "Yes, Miss, I will do it secretly and not let you down."
