After the marriage, my husband's family listened to my voice and turned the tide

……

That day in the martial arts arena, Ke Ming openly attempted treason, but naturally he was defeated. He and his men were quickly imprisoned.

The rebellion was not a whim of Ke Ming, nor was it just because Emperor Mingwu granted Princess Qingqing to Ke Rui for marriage. This was just a fuse. Ke Ming had planned to rebel long before.

Ke Ming knew very early that if he used ordinary means to fight for that position with his two brothers, he would never be able to sit on it. He could fight with Ke Rui, but he could never guess Ke Yu's thoughts. Therefore, from beginning to end, his ideal goal was only one, that is, to rebel.

The question is, the price to pay for treason should be even greater, so why is Ke Ming so confident that he can succeed?

So this is why Ke Ming colluded with the northern barbarians. He cooperated with the northern barbarians, promised them tempting benefits, and asked for their help, and they cooperated with him from the inside and outside. In addition, he had at least one-third of the power in the court, so he didn't think he would lose. What's more, he had a backup plan without anyone knowing.

As early as a year ago, he secretly poisoned Emperor Mingwu. Of course, a chronic poison would not take effect immediately. It would take years to accumulate the poison, so that one day Emperor Mingwu would completely decide on the next ruler before he rebelled. His original intention was to wait three or four years before letting Emperor Mingwu take effect, but he couldn't wait any longer, so there was the scene where Emperor Mingwu vomited blood.

The northern barbarians who cooperated with Ke Ming were not only those who sent Princess Qingqing to marry, but also those who had been lurking for a long time. That was why Ke Ming had enough confidence to rebel without considering the consequences of failure, because in his opinion, he was the winner.

However, things did not happen as he expected, but the outcome was the opposite of what he expected.

Ke Ming's failure is inevitable.

This story begins last year.

Last year, Ke Ming had just returned from a victorious battle in Shabei, and Ke Yu had already handed the evidence of his collusion with the Northern Barbarians to Emperor Mingwu. However, the evidence was incomplete at that time, and Emperor Mingwu did not fully believe Ke Yu. Ke Yu made a lot of proofs, one of which was that Ke Ming would poison Emperor Mingwu.

Ke Ming thought that he had poisoned Emperor Mingwu without anyone noticing, but in fact, before he took action, Crown Prince Ke Yu had already seen through the clues. When he took action, Emperor Mingwu had already decided to take advantage of the situation.

It was because of this incident that Emperor Wu of the Ming Dynasty became alienated from Ke Ming and became wary of him ever since.

Ke Ming was imprisoned, and the fate that awaited him was to be beheaded in public three days later. His biological mother, Concubine Yan, was banished to the cold palace because of him, and she was never allowed to leave the cold palace for the rest of her life. As for Concubine Yan's maternal family, the Zhou family, the Minister of Rites followed Ke Ming and became the first to be exposed, so naturally his fate was not good, and his three clans were executed.

The Zhou Wang faction all ended up being beheaded or exiled.

Ji Zhang and Yu Jing were the ones who were exiled. All the people from the Ji and Yu families, regardless of gender, age or status, were exiled to Linyue City in the south. As the name suggests, Linyue City is the border with Nanyue. Compared with the not-so-rich Nanwu, Linyue is much more difficult and sad. And going to Linyue is not about enjoying happiness, it is about suffering.

On the day when Ke Ming was beheaded in public, Shang Tingli did not go to watch, but went to meet Yu Lanxi who was to be exiled on the same day.

It has been quite some time since he last saw this cousin. When Shang Tingli saw Yu Lanxi, she was wearing plain clothes and had a sallow complexion, without any trace of her former dignity.

In Shang Tingli's impression, Yu Lanxi was still the domineering and brainless young lady. The person in front of her was completely different from the past. She sighed for a moment, but did not sympathize with her.

This is what Yu Lanxi deserves.

Yu Lanxi looked at Shang Tingli, who was even richer than before, and felt so angry that her teeth itched. She said unkindly, "What are you doing here? Are you here to laugh at me?"

Shang Tingli smiled back: "Of course."

She did not hide her true purpose, and this look made Yu Lanxi angry again.

Yu Lanxi said angrily: "Now that you have seen it, are you satisfied?"

Shang Tingli shook his head and said with pity, "No, if possible, I would rather see you being torn apart by five horses again."

When she came over, she had already informed the chief of the yamen who was in charge of escorting the exiles that she wanted to have a private talk with Yu Lanxi. The chief of the yamen knew that she was the consort of Prince Ren, so he did not dare to treat her with disrespect.

Therefore, only Yu Lanxi could hear these words.

When Yu Lanxi heard this, her eyes widened and she said excitedly, "You are indeed reborn!"

Shang Tingli smiled: "Yes, it's a pity that you know it too late."

She looked gentle and considerate, but the words she said were like a sharp knife stabbing straight into Yu Lanxi's heart.

"Cousin Lan Xi, I really should thank you in this life. Thank you so much for personally delivering such wealth and glory to me. Do you know? You only care about the honor that Ji Zhang got in his previous life. You don't know how much I paved the way for him behind the scenes!"

Shang Tingli covered his mouth and laughed.

She took two steps forward, looked at Yu Lanxi and said, "In the previous life, it was the Crown Prince who gained power, not the King of Zhou. And the man you thought was a good man had actually been secretly having an affair with his concubine." She shook her head again, "It's such a pity that you didn't see all this in your previous life, cousin Lanxi, but you did try hard."

Shang Tingli took two steps back and smiled sweetly: "At least cousin, you have tried your best to see it in this life——"

Yu Lanxi was so angry that she couldn't utter a word. She just stared at her hatefully.

"Although I never took my cousin's head myself, I still felt this kind of happiness, and I have no regrets."

Shang Tingli straightened his clothes and said, "As for my cousin's regrets, I won't listen to them."

She turned around and left gracefully.

Yu Lanxi, who was left behind and was extremely angry with her, couldn't help but spit out a mouthful of blood after she took a few steps away.

Shang Tingli heard the noise, but she did not turn back to show concern, and walked away calmly. She did not go to see Yu Jing and Pan Yaying, and naturally did not go to see Ji Zhang.

As far as she was concerned, Ji Zhang deserved to suffer such a torment and should not have died a happy death.

In her previous life, Ji Zhang had killed Yin Yuyi for her own sake. In this life, Yin Yuyi became a fugitive because of him, and they both suffered for the rest of their lives. This result was her revenge.

There is an interesting thing to say.

Yu Rongbao, the son of Yi Zhonghou who had been a bad man all his life, actually gave his wife Fang Qian a letter of divorce before going to prison, and the two had nothing to do with each other from then on. Therefore, Fang Qian was spared the suffering of exile.

……

When Shang Tingli returned to Xinyuan, he didn't expect that in addition to Ke Xin, Wenhui, Ke Yishang and Ke Yi were all waiting in the yard.

One by one, they admitted their mistakes and apologized to her sincerely.

Only then did she realize that the three of them, like Ke Xingchen, could inadvertently hear her inner voice. No wonder she often felt that her actions had become simpler.

Yes, Ke Xingchen confessed to her that he could hear her inner voice, and also said that he had been on the side of the prince since he heard her inner voice.

The reason why we were able to easily defeat Ke Ming this time was because we listened to her thoughts and made preparations in advance.

Shang Tingli didn't know whether to cry or laugh. He could only say that everything must be God's will.

"Can Xiaoli forgive his mother?" Wenhui looked at Shang Tingli with pleading eyes. Ke Yishang and Ke Yi nodded heavily beside her, both looking at her eagerly.

Shang Tingli thought, since the mothers could hear her inner voice, she would just say "forgiveness" in her heart. However, after she said "forgiveness" for a long time, the mother and her two children in front of her still looked at her cautiously, as if they were afraid that she would get angry and ignore them.

She couldn't help but wonder: "I just forgave you in my heart, why are you still looking at me like this?"

Wen Hui: “?”

Ke Yi: “?”

Ke Yishang: “?”

But they didn't hear any sound!

This is how the same thing?

Ke Xin came over and said, "Since I confessed to you, I can no longer hear your inner voice." He glanced at Wen Hui and the others, "I think it's the same for mother and the others."

After hearing this, Wen Hui felt more at ease and said to Shang Tingli, "That's good. We can't really let our little Li have no privacy. I'm afraid he won't know how to get along with us in the future."

Ke Yichang had the same attitude towards this, covering her heart and saying, "No need to worry about my sister-in-law knowing this secret anymore."

Ke Yi scratched his neck and nodded repeatedly.

Shang Tingli chuckled.

In fact, she didn't mind this matter too much. If it weren't for this, she really didn't know if she could "save" her family's lives. She was just a little shocked when she first learned the truth.

Seeing that she was really not angry, and looking at Ke Xin standing beside her, Wenhui finally softened her heart for her mother and tactfully said goodbye.

As soon as Wenhui left, Ke Yishang and Ke Yi did not stay any longer and followed her.

"Ke Xingchen."

Shang Tingli shouted.

Ke Xin looked down at her: "What's wrong?"

Shang Tingli smiled and said, "You are not as stupid as I thought."

Ke Xin raised his eyebrows and curved the corners of his lips: "Then apologize to me."

"..."

Shang Tingli curled her lips. It was really unnecessary for her to say such a thing. This man really still looked so naughty.

She said, "I only said that you are not as stupid as I thought. I didn't say you are not stupid. Besides, I was not wrong... In short, I was not wrong!"

Shang Tingli glanced at him: "So, you should apologize to me!"

Ke Xin nodded seriously: "Yes, wrong."

Shang Tingli was startled, turned his head away awkwardly, and snorted, "I forgive you."

She looked at the pomegranate tree in the yard. The red lanterns on the tree had disappeared at some point, leaving only the green leaves still lush.

She actually had a guess.

Perhaps the fact that they could hear her thoughts was not because they had confessed to her that they had lost this ability, but most likely because they were all safe. From now on, they would all have a completely different life from their previous one.

——No longer a short and miserable life, but a long and beautiful life.
