The Cannon Fodder Female Supporting Character's Sickly Prince Strategy Manual

Ning Xue, with a heavy and complicated mood, quietly approached the extremely simple little house.

The house is so pitifully small that one can take in the entirety of its walls at a glance.

It was estimated that there was just a cramped little room inside, plus a small kitchen or something like that. The shabby wooden door had a surprisingly large gap, as if telling the outside world about the vicissitudes of life it had experienced.

Because of this, even the slightest sound of words inside can be heard clearly by people standing outside the door.

"Shuang'er, what are you busy with?" Huo Beixuan's familiar voice came, his tone filled with obvious joy, and he sounded in a surprisingly good mood.

"I'll fry two pieces of meat for you. Didn't you say there's nothing delicious in the Huo Mansion?" A gentle and pleasant female voice sounded, with a bit of concern and tenderness.

"Don't worry, I'll stay with you tonight and not go back." There was a hint of determination in Huo Beixuan's tone.

"Not going back? Aren't you just getting married? That's not appropriate!" The woman's voice was filled with a little surprise and worry.

"If you have less contact with that vicious woman, you can live a few more years." Huo Beixuan's words were full of disdain and disgust. The cold tone made Ning Xue's heart sink into an ice cellar in an instant.

"Did you really let her drink the medicine I bought?" The woman's voice came again, with a hint of uneasiness.

"Of course!" Huo Beixuan answered without hesitation, with a hint of pride in his tone.

All I heard was the woman giggling softly, "Put me down, it's broad daylight and it's not even dark yet!" There was a hint of coquettishness in her voice.

Huo Beixuan just chuckled.

Ning Xue couldn't suppress her curiosity and uneasiness, and looked inside through the big crack in the door.

This sight made her feel like she was struck by lightning. She saw Huo Beixuan holding the woman named Shuang'er with a tender look on his face and striding into the room.

Ning Xue quickly covered her mouth with both hands, afraid of making any sound. She once thought that she had shed too many tears for this marriage and her tears had dried up long ago.

However, at this moment, tears were still rolling down uncontrollably like a flood that had broken through a dam.

Soon, suppressed heavy breathing and the woman's uncontrollable moans were heard from the room.

How could Ning Xue, who was well-versed in human affairs, not understand what this meant? Her eyes instantly became empty and lifeless, and her eyes were blurred with tears.

She walked carefully, step by step, away from the little house that broke her heart. When she reached the corner, she could no longer hold on and covered her face with her hands, crying silently.

She felt like the biggest fool in the world.

"Shuang'er, Shuang'er, why does this name sound so familiar!"

She kept repeating the name in her heart, her thoughts flooding in like a tide, and she finally remembered, wasn't this woman Huo Beixuan's concubine?

She clearly remembered that in that predictive dream, after Yun Shang died and she got married, she knew that Huo Beixuan had a concubine named Shuang'er, and she had met that woman once at that time.

It turned out that Shuang'er and Huo Beixuan had already had a secret relationship with each other long before Yunchang got married.

At that time, she naively thought that she was just a concubine and could be dismissed at will.

So, when she sold her concubine, Huo Beixuan had a big fight with her for a while.

Looking back on those days, Huo Beixuan would sometimes use the excuse of being busy with official business to not be at home and live outside. I guess by then, he had already found Shuang'er again and kept her as a concubine, secretly keeping her outside.

Ning Xue wiped away her tears vigorously, her face distorted by pain.

She carefully recalled all the details of the past again. Yes, Huo Beixuan did have a house under his name. He said that he rented it to a widow. He also said that it was the wife of a classmate and he was taking care of her. The rent was ridiculously cheap, but she didn't care at all at the time.

"I'm so stupid!" Ning Xue bit her lips hard, her heart full of regret for herself.

She finally understood that this woman named Shuang'er was the one Huo Beixuan held dear to his heart! She and Yunshang were just pawns Huo Beixuan had to marry for fame, wealth and status, in order to climb up.

Ning Xue walked out of the slums slowly, like a wandering spirit that had lost its soul.

Hongdou followed closely behind with a confused look on her face, not knowing what was going on.

She wandered around the street in a daze for a long time, with a myriad of thoughts in her mind and the past events playing out like a movie.

Finally, she figured out many things.

"Divorce, I must find a way to divorce!" Ning Xue swore secretly in her heart, "Not only will I make Huo Beixuan lose everything, but I will also make him pay a heavy price for what he did. I want his life!"

At this moment, Ning Xue's eyes no longer had the weakness and hesitation of the past, but were replaced by firm determination and endless hatred.

After Ning Xue came back to her senses, she did not choose to return to the Huo Mansion, but went straight to her house near Cuiyu Pavilion.

Hongdou followed behind, full of confusion, and couldn't help asking, "Miss, aren't we going back to the Huo Mansion?" Hongdou really couldn't understand why her young lady was becoming more and more rebellious.

Ning Xue looked calm and responded calmly, "No, from now on, don't mention the words Huo Mansion anymore. It's just a courtyard with three entrances. Just call it the Huo Family."

Thinking of Yunchang's parents' home, it had courtyards with four entrances and exits, which was much better than the Huo family's.

At this time in the imperial palace, in Wanyuan, Concubine Ning was leisurely pruning branches and picking beautiful crabapple flowers in the garden.

"This flower is not an ordinary flower." Concubine Ning smiled slightly and said to the nanny beside her. Her words were full of love for these flowers, because they were rare treasures.

The nanny responded from the side. Seeing that there was no one around, she lowered her voice and said quietly, "I saw with my own eyes yesterday that the Crown Prince's wife left the Crown Prince and went into the Yun Mansion alone."

Concubine Ning raised her eyebrows slightly and asked with interest, "Can you see her expression at that time?"

"He saw it, but he wasn't happy or angry. He just walked around the ceremonial car. It seemed that he was quite satisfied with the return gift."

After hearing this, Concubine Ning nodded slightly, carefully placed the freshly cut flowers on the tray, and continued trimming them.

After a while, Concubine Ning spoke again and asked, "In your opinion, is the Crown Prince's wife still a virgin?"

The maid answered without hesitation, "I think it must be the case. The way the Crown Prince's wife walks and her demeanor are exactly the same as those of an unmarried woman. She doesn't have the shyness or sexual desire of a married woman at all."

Concubine Ning smiled faintly and said thoughtfully, "It seems that Master Shangguan is not up to the task!"

"Brothers fought for a daughter, and a generous dowry, and were met with indifference when they returned home. This prince's wife is no ordinary person!"

Concubine Ning narrowed her eyes slightly, "I wonder how much weight this girl holds in the heart of Master Shangguan?"

The nanny asked in a low voice: "My lady, what do you want me to do?"

Concubine Ning gently waved her hand and said, "You don't have to do anything. Let's test it out first to see what Master Shangguan's attitude is, and then we can make a long-term plan!"
