The inner voice was overheard, and the whole court was eating melons together

Chapter 578 Love changes people beyond recognition

If he had not favored his concubine over his wife, he would have been able to keep his position in the Duke's Mansion relying on Liu Jinran's achievements.

The title of Duke in their mansion can be passed down for three generations.

But Liu Jinran obviously didn't have this idea. His only request was to ask his mother for a divorce.

Seeing that his son Liu Jinran didn't care about the future of the Duke's Mansion, Duke Liu quickly explained to Nian Cenyi:

"Your Majesty, my son drank a few more cups and started talking nonsense.

Please forgive me, Your Majesty!

Her mother is my original wife, and I will not divorce her."

"My mother passed away a long time ago. I believe she was willing to divorce you."

Liu Jinran did not respond to Duke Liu's words at all. He knelt there, kowtowed to the emperor several times, and said:

"Please, Your Majesty, grant your permission."

Nian Cenyi asked again:

"General Liu, are you sure you want to use your military achievements to buy your mother's divorce?"

"determine."

In fact, Liu Jinran also wanted to tell the emperor that he wanted to sever the father-son relationship with Duke Liu.

But in this world, filial piety is more important than anything else. If he did this, he would probably be despised by the world and might also leave a bad impression on the emperor.

After careful consideration, he still held back from saying the words that would sever the father-son relationship.

Nian Cenyi looked at Liu Jinran's determined expression and nodded in agreement.

Gua Gua: [Just like that, Liu Jinran took away everything his mother had in the Duke’s Mansion, and also took away everything from the wet nurse.

Liu Jinran also felt extremely guilty towards his wet nurse, as he was the one who killed her.

Liu Jinran found out that the wet nurse had a daughter raised in the countryside. He found the daughter and took her to live with him to take care of her.

Take care of her like your own sister. 】

In the video, Liu Jinran no longer cares about anything in the Duke's Mansion!

He left the capital with his wet nurse's daughter Han Kexia and returned to the border.

Liu Jinran arranged Han Kexia to stay in his mansion at the border and told everyone that she was his adopted sister.

Treat this stepsister the same way you would treat him, and don't be negligent.

After hearing this, the people in the mansion also knew that the general valued this sworn sister very much.

At the beginning, Han Kexia was very cautious in the mansion, for fear that he might do something wrong and displease the general, who would send him back to the countryside.

Both her parents are gone, and if she is sent back, she can only return to her uncle's house again.

Ever since her father passed away and her mother became a wet nurse in a wealthy family, she has been living with her uncle.

In the past, my mother would ask someone to bring back money every month, and my uncle's family treated her well.

But later on, the silver and money that my mother asked others to bring back became less and less, and in the end, she no longer brought back any silver and money.

Her uncle's family's attitude towards her changed completely!

They beat and scolded her, and asked her to do all the housework!

If General Liu had not gone to pick her up, she might have been sold by her uncle. Even if he hadn't sold her, he would have given her to someone else as a concubine to pave the way for her cousin.

General Liu taught her uncle's family a lesson on her behalf.

My uncle's family must hate her to death. If she is sent back, one can imagine how her life will be!

She must not be sent back.

At the beginning, she was very cautious in everything she did, but she found that everyone in the mansion was very respectful to her.

Later, she found out that her mother died because of this general, so she was no longer so cautious.

Her mentality changed, and in her opinion, she deserved all this.

Everything she enjoys now was earned by her mother's life, so she takes it for granted.

She began to act bossy in the house, just like a hostess.

Liu Jinran felt guilty towards his wet nurse, and he turned a blind eye to Han Kexia's behavior. As long as it was not too excessive, he would not say anything.

Song Yaoyao: [How could Han Kexia attack a child? ]

Gua Gua: [Host, please listen to me slowly.

During their interactions, Han Kexia felt that Liu Jinran was a person who appeared cold on the outside but was warm-hearted on the inside.

Gradually, she fell in love with Liu Jinran.

But Liu Jinran didn't have that thought at all, he just took care of her as a younger sister. 】

In the video, Han Kexia expressed her love to Liu Jinran several times, both explicitly and implicitly, and Liu Jinran said every time that he only regarded her as a sister.

He can help her with any kind of man she likes, but that man cannot be him.

After hearing this, Han Kexia felt that Liu Jinran had a cold personality, but she would be able to impress him over time.

Two years passed like this. Once when Liu Jinran was out, he was assassinated. He was seriously injured and fell off a cliff. He was rescued by a peasant girl.

As they got along, Liu Jinran developed feelings for the woman, and when he came back, he brought the woman back with him.

The woman's name was Lin Yourong. She was a pretty and gentle farm girl.

Han Kexia didn't expect that after waiting for so many years, he would marry someone else.

The wedding of Liu Jinran and Lin Yourong was very grand, and all the important people in the border town came.

This made Han Kexia even more jealous.

Seeing the man she loved flirting with other women every day, Han Kexia felt heartbroken.

Not long after the marriage, Lin Yourong found out that she was pregnant.

Ever since she became pregnant, Liu Jinran sent two maids who knew martial arts to protect Lin Yourong closely.

This led to Han Kexia trying to attack Lin Yourong several times, but all failed.

In Han Kexia's opinion, a crude country girl like Lin Yourong was not worthy of bearing General Liu's child.

At this moment, Han Kexia has forgotten that she was also a country girl a few years ago. If it weren't for Liu Jinran, who knows what would be waiting for her?

Now she looked down on Lin Yourong, a peasant girl.

After several failures, Han Kexia still hasn't given up!

Just like that, when Lin Yourong was about to give birth, she captured the midwife's family again.

He threatened the midwife to take action during Lin Yourong's delivery, resulting in two deaths.

Later, the midwife was caught red-handed when she was doing something to Lin Yourong.

The lives of the midwife and her family were in Han Kexia's hands. She dared not say anything, kept everything to herself, and bit her tongue to commit suicide.

This matter is over.

Although Lin Yourong successfully gave birth to a son, the midwife's manipulation made it difficult to save the child, but left him with a root of disease.

So, when the child was one year old, Lin Yourong still went.

Lin Yourong died, and Han Kexia was happy for a long time.

But she found that since Lin Yourong's death, Liu Jinran would go to see his son with Lin Yourong whenever he had free time, except when he went to the army.

As expected, there were only Lin Yourong and her son in his eyes, which made Han Kexia furious, so she took the opportunity to attack the child.

Song Yaoyao: [This is so scary. Can falling in love with someone really change a person beyond recognition? ]

Guagua: [Yes.]

Isn't this Han Kexia? 】
