Steal my marriage? Turn around and marry the dude to take power

Within three days, He Yunshang was released from prison.

He Yunshang changed his confession to clear his name.

If he had simply changed his confession, he wouldn't have been able to get out so quickly, but with Wen Xingchen's money and guarantee, he was able to get it out.

After he was released, Wen Xingchen bought him a house and kept him outside.

He Yunshang was eager to see his daughter, so Wen Xingchen took him there.

However, his daughter Mei Niang refused to recognize him, scolded him and drove him away.

It was something that was within reason, and Wen Xingchen was not surprised.

In her previous life, Mei Niang became a concubine in the Changyuan Marquis Mansion and lived a life of luxury, but she was unwilling to pay attention to her impoverished father and even severed the father-daughter relationship.

However, Mei Niang took her brother back.

Of course, all this was done by Changyuan Hou.

"Mr. He, your daughter and your son are still alive. You can rest assured."

alive?

Be someone's concubine?

He Yunshang had a bitter smile on his face. What qualifications did he have to comment on his children?

"Back then, your concubine was causing trouble in your house, disrupting your family and destroying everyone in it. Now that your daughter is a concubine, it seems she wants to disrupt other families as well. Mr. He has done a great job in teaching you this."

"..."

He Yunshang knew that the princess was mocking him, but he had to endure it.

"Princess, you have brought me out, but what are your instructions? As you can see, my daughter doesn't recognize me. If you want me to persuade her, I'm afraid you've found the wrong person."

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

"Tell me, if I kill her, will my Changyuan Marquisate avoid the same fate as you and your family?"

He Yunshang's eyes were filled with traces of time. Originally, his eyes were like an ancient well in the autumn night, deep and calm. But when he heard her words, it was like throwing a stone into the ancient well, with a splash, ripples appeared.

"Princess, if you have any instructions, please come to me. I will do my best to serve you."

"Very good, then this princess will spare her life."

Then Wen Xingchen told He Yunshang what she was going to do.

He Yunshang was a little skeptical at first, but then he remained silent.

"You are a princess, why would you ask He to educate your child? He is just a criminal."

"This princess doesn't need anyone to ask questions. This princess only cares about the results. My brother is naughty, so the respectable people in the capital naturally refuse to accept him as an apprentice. This princess also doesn't want others to know that I have such a brother, so this task has fallen to you."

"..."

So He Yunshang stayed there.

But He Yunshang had a condition: his younger brother had to eat and live with him, and no one else was allowed to interfere.

Wen Xingchen didn't care and naturally agreed.

After Wen Xingchen finishes the things here, the rest will be left to Wen Ruyue.

Wen Ruyue heard that He Yunshang agreed and asked to send Wen Rubao over.

Wen Ruyue felt that this was how it should be.

After all, he had a very great reputation in his previous life.

After Wen Xingchen finished her instructions, Princess Furun invited her into the palace.

Wen Xingchen went to Kunning Palace, where Furun was having dinner.

She recalled the day when she went to the princess's residence and saw Furun surrounded by girls, looking very happy.

Now she was wearing the clothes of the Protector of the Nation Princess, which reminded her of a word: a scoundrel.

Furun saw that she started looking at her as soon as she came in, but she was not angry because she knew she had been there that day.

For a girl who was unmarried and had never experienced that kind of thing, she forgave her naive appearance.

"Sister Furun, you got me and then abandoned me. You have such a cruel heart."

Furun raised an eyebrow.

"Who said that this princess abandoned him?"

Wen Xingchen was stunned. Was he really going to hug her left and right?

"he agrees?"

Furun said indifferently: "I will agree sooner or later."

"..."

Fu Run was amused by her bewildered expression, but he was too lazy to explain, so he went straight to the point: "Are you aware that the Xixia envoy will be arriving in Beijing soon?"

Wen Xingchen shook his head.

I've been busy with other things recently and haven't paid much attention to this matter.

Fu Run was a little worried, and her voice was a little deep: "This princess heard that the emperor of Western Xia is nearly sixty years old..."

"Who do you think is suitable for this marriage?"

The emperor has only one princess, and she is the princess who protects the country.

Moreover, the princess was already married. Although her husband had died, it was no longer appropriate to marry him.

The newly-crowned princess Wen Xingchen already has an engagement. Even if she doesn't have one, the forces behind her will not allow her to marry.

Furun asked this question in a very soft voice, and seemed to be a little hesitant.

Wen Xingchen spoke directly, his tone filled with emotionless determination: "You are in need of a consort. Ask the Xixia royal family to send a hostage and raise him in your princess's mansion..."

Does this mean that she should keep the Prince of Western Xia?

Furun thought about it and felt that this method was not feasible.

"If this princess leaves Prince Tuoba of Xixia behind, who do you think will go to Xixia as a hostage?"

"..."

Wen Xingchen disliked marriage alliances, believing that was a sign of weakness. Furthermore, the Western Xia were ambitious and had always been the ones to initiate war in their previous lives.

But in the end they were all defeated by Chen Jingting.

"This kind of thing is not something that this princess should worry about." If you don't agree on a marriage, then let's start a fight.

Furun asked:

"In your dream, Xixia sent envoys. What was the final outcome?"

Wen Xingchen thought about it and remembered that in her previous life, when she was about to get married, she heard that the Western Xia envoys brought dozens of warriors and asked for a duel.

It's actually a provocation.

Each of these dozen warriors was carefully selected and has extremely strong fighting capabilities.

The emperor's uncle took great pains to deal with these warriors.

They also fell in love with Princess Furun and asked the emperor to send the princess to marry him.

But the emperor was reluctant, and the empress was even more reluctant. They joined forces with the Zhuge family to put pressure on the emperor. After all, the princess was already married to Zhuge Mianxu, the son of the Zhuge family, and was the daughter-in-law of the Zhuge family.

Furun married Zhuge Mianxu, but that guy had a bad luck and died suddenly of illness less than a year after marrying Furun.

After Zhuge Mianxu died, Furun moved back to the princess's mansion.

Although the Zhuge family had lobbied the Empress several times to let the princess remarry, Princess Furun was used to being free and naturally did not want to be bound again.

Moreover, she is living a comfortable life now and really doesn't need to wear shackles.

Xixia did not succeed, and in the end it was Xiao Wanru from Prince Rong's mansion who went to marry the princess instead.

In this life?

Wen Xingchen came out of Kunning Palace and prepared to go back.

I met Chen Jingting on the palace road, and he was followed by a small team of patrol soldiers.

Chen Jingting saw Wen Xingchen, ordered the soldiers behind him, and walked towards Wen Xingchen.

When Wen Xingchen saw Chen Jingting, he turned around and walked away through the path next to him.

Chen Jingting was slightly stunned when he saw her avoiding him.

The soldier behind him explained, "Captain Chen, Princess Huayang must not have seen you."

Chen Jingting ordered people to go on patrol.

And he went to wait at the palace gate.

Wen Xingchen left the palace in a carriage. The driver, Ah Hai, knew Chen Jingting. He said to Wen Xingchen, "Princess, Chen's son Silang is at the palace gate."

Wen Xingchen ordered: "Ignore him, just leave."

"Yes."

Chen Jingting saw the princess's carriage and was about to bow to greet her.

However, the carriage passed by.

The wind blew and the curtain of the car was lifted up. Chen Jingting saw Wen Xingchen closing his eyes and resting with a distant look.

Only after the carriage left did he realize something.
