Marrying Wife and Concubine Together: After Rebirth, I Remarried the Scumbag's Father on the Sp

Lin Yiwan immediately stood up and said, "Sister-in-law, my brother-in-law is here. Let's listen to his explanation first, okay?"

Bai Qiaoyin neither agreed nor refused, she just turned her body to the side.

Lin Yiwan welcomed Fang Qingshan in and gave him a complaining look.

He strode over to Bai Qiaoyin, grabbed her hand and said, "Yin'er, I will never divorce you. Please, listen to my explanation, okay?"

Bai Qiaoyin's tears fell, and she remained silent and refused to answer.

Lin Yiwan cleverly avoided it and saw Zhan Yan standing under the crabapple tree in the yard, pacing slowly.

She walked over and said, "Do you know about my brother?"

He nodded. "Yes, the Barbarian Princess has taken a liking to him and has proposed to the Emperor that they marry. She has even lowered herself to become his concubine!"

Lin Yiwan couldn't help but take a breath. It seemed that this barbarian princess was determined to clear the mountain.

She frowned and asked, "Has the Emperor agreed?"

Zhan Yan raised the corner of his lips imperceptibly. "In the past, the Emperor would have no reason to refuse. He would have been eager for the marriage between the two countries and the marriage of the Barbarian Princess. But the situation is different now. The King of Wu has been staying in the Sheng Dynasty and the Barbarians are naturally wary of the cooperation between the two countries!"

Lin Yiwan understood it immediately. Emperor Sheng An’s meaning was very clear. He still had to wait and see what Fang Qingshan would choose.

If he agrees, everyone will be happy.

If he disagrees, I won’t force him.

She turned her head and looked into the house thoughtfully, hoping that Fang Qingshan would not let Bai Qiaoyin down.

After all, she stayed in the Fang family without complaint. If he betrayed her, it would be really heartless.

Not only would she agree with Bai Qiaoyin's divorce, she would even sever her ties with Fang Qingshan and no longer acknowledge him as her sworn brother.

Inside the house, Bai Qiaoyin tried hard not to cry. She was a strong woman and would never show weakness in front of a man.

Especially since Fang Qingshan is going to the battlefield, how can he be left with any worries?

She said in a hoarse voice: "We have been married for many years, and I won't make things difficult for you. It's my fault that we don't have children. Fang Qingshan, let's let go of each other and part ways!"

Fang Qingshan's face was filled with sadness. He shook his head vigorously. "No, I won't let go, Yin'er. You understand me. Even if I die, I will never betray you. As for how I carried the Barbarian Princess on my back, I don't know what others told you, but the truth is, I was forced into a desperate situation!"

He said bitterly, "She said that if I didn't carry her, she would die in the carriage. You know, she is of noble status. If anything goes wrong with her, the Fang family army can't bear the responsibility!"

Bai Qiaoyin obviously hadn't expected such a hidden secret. She asked in a trembling voice, "You, you were forced to do this? And it wasn't out of pity for her frail body?"

Fang Qingshan was stunned at first, then he smiled bitterly: "Yin'er, we've been married for several years, and you don't trust me so much? Besides you, how can there be room in my heart for another woman?"

A trace of self-blame flashed across Bai Qiaoyin's pale face. It was her fault. She had always been proud and confident. When the two of them were fighting side by side on the battlefield, she had never been so worried.

Ever since her mother-in-law was in poor health, the huge general's mansion needed her to take care of it, so she returned to the backyard to look after it.

The couple's relationship has become strained after being apart for several years!

In addition, she had no children, which made her feel increasingly inferior and anxious.

Now, when she heard the rumors coming from the army, she believed them almost without hesitation.

She said guiltily: "I'm sorry, I should ask you, husband, it's my fault, can you forgive me?"

Fang Qingshan reached out and wiped away the tears from her eyes and said, "It's also my fault. I blamed you for not telling me my feelings right away. I made you think too much. I should have asked for your forgiveness!"

Bai Qiaoyin could no longer hold back and threw herself into his arms, bursting into tears.

She misses him!

Whenever she saw other couples together, her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.

How many lonely nights did she spend missing him?

In the cold bed, others would sleep in their husbands' arms, but she would sleep holding his clothes!

And those clothes were often soaked with tears!

She is strong in front of others and is capable of being the mistress of the general's mansion!

But behind people, she was filled with grievances and had nowhere to vent them.

She had been waiting for him to come back for a long time, but when she heard that he was being affectionate with another woman, her heart was broken.

She still wanted to maintain some dignity between husband and wife, so she could only escape to Lin Yiwan first.

Fang Qingshan patted her back distressedly: "Yin'er, I'll stay in Beijing when I come back this time. Now that there's no war on the border, I can stay by your side!"

Bai Qiaoyin choked up and nodded, but before she could say anything else, she was interrupted by Zhan Yan who pushed the door open and said, "Brother, I have to remind you that the matter of the Manyi Princess has not been resolved yet. She is begging the Emperor to grant you a marriage at tonight's dinner!"

Fang Qingshan froze, his eyes widening in disbelief: "The Emperor agreed?"

Zhan Yan shook his head. "Not yet, but the Manyi princess is being very humble. She said she'd marry you as a concubine, and she promised that if the marriage goes smoothly, they could sign a peace agreement with the Sheng Dynasty, just like they did with the Li Kingdom!"

After hearing these words, Bai Qiaoyin's tears, which had stopped flowing, began to roll down again.

Fang Qingshan was so angry that he almost died. Zhan Yan was really talking about things that were irrelevant to the topic.

He had just coaxed his wife to stop crying, but now after hearing what he said, she started to cry again.

But he also understood that this was a hurdle before him and he had to find a way to cross it.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Why did she choose me? I'm just a warrior, and she's a barbarian princess of noble status. She can't get any man she wants."

Zhan Yan didn't say anything, and the obscurity in his eyes made it difficult to understand his emotions.

Fang Qingshan said anxiously, "Don't be silent, why don't you help me think of a way to avoid the Barbarian Princess's forced marriage?"

Lin Yiwan also chimed in: "Yes, Ah Yan, please help my brother. The Barbarian Princess is deliberately trying to marry me. She must have some ulterior motive!"

Zhan Yan saw his wife speak, and he slowly said: "Of course, our brother is a rare military commander in the Sheng Dynasty. More importantly, not only does he have the Fang family army, but even the Zhan family army is very convinced of him!"

Just one sentence reminded Lin Yiwan.

As smart as she was, she immediately figured out the real reason why the Barbarian Princess insisted on marrying Fang Qingshan!

That’s for military power!

She spoke quickly, "If my brother surrenders his military power, will the Barbarian Princess not target him?"

Zhan Yan looked at Fang Qingshan with burning eyes: "Are you willing to hand it over?"
