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

Miyazato

When the emperor learned about this, it was not Xiao Bo who went back to complain, but Wei Yi of the Wucheng Army.

After the emperor learned about this, he asked, "Who do you think is right and who is wrong in this matter?"

Wei Yi said, "Your Majesty, Xi Tianyou insulted the princess first, and the princess taught him a lesson later. Logically, it shouldn't matter whether he was right or wrong. However... it was Xi Tianyou who was injured, both of his legs were broken. The princess's punishment was excessive. The Duke of Zhenguo will not let this go."

The emperor snorted coldly.

"What a good son he raised. Why would he mess with Princess Huayang when there are so many people he can mess with? None of my sons dared to mess with her."

Wei Yi said, "Princess Huayang is favored by the Emperor, and the princes are well-mannered and will naturally not make things difficult for the princess."

Wei Yi's words were very satisfactory.

The emperor said:

"Wei Yi, if this were you, how would you handle it?"

"Your Majesty, do you intend to handle this according to state affairs or family affairs?"

"How about treating it as a national affair? How about treating it as a family affair?"

"As a matter of state, it should be handled impartially. Anyone who speaks ill of the royal family should be put to death. As a matter of family, I have a son who is incredibly doted on by my mother. He often gets into trouble, giving me a headache. Every time he gets into trouble, I have to apologize."

apologize?

The emperor will not go, but Wen Xingchen has a father.

Ningyuan Houfu

The news that Wen Xingchen broke Xi Tianyou's leg spread to Ning Yuanhou's mansion, and Ning Yuanhou now felt unwell.

Quickly order someone to find the princess.

Hearing that Wen Xingchen and Chen Jingting had gone horseback riding, Ning Yuanhou ordered people to look for them.

Wen Xingchen didn't play much before he was called back.

Chen Jingting was also called back home by the Chen family.

Ningyuan Houfu

As soon as Wen Xingchen returned home, he saw Wen Ruyue standing in the yard.

"My sister is back."

Wen Xingchen asked, "Are you waiting for me in the yard?"

Wen Ruyue nodded.

"The news of my sister's conflict with Xi Tianyou of the Xi family has been reported back to our house, and my father has also heard about it. How do you plan to deal with it?"

"Wen Ruyue, why should I deal with this kind of thing? It's not my fault."

Wen Ruyue said, "Dad is very angry and is just about to decide what to do with you."

dispose of?

Wen Xingchen smiled.

"Where's Dad?"

"In the study."

Wen Xingchen went to the study, where Wen Rubao was reciting the Spring and Autumn Annals.

Wen Xingchen went in.

"Dad, you're looking for me."

Wen Changsheng glared at Wen Xingchen.

"Wen Xingchen, if you don't cause trouble for your father for a day, won't you feel unhappy?"

Wen Xingchen asked, "Dad, are you referring to Xi Tianyou insulting his daughter today?"

"Why did she insult you? She asked you to break his legs. Do you know that even the doctors in the whole city of Xi Family can't heal his legs?"

Wen Xingchen expressed his understanding.

"It's broken, but it can be reattached. However, her leg was hit by a dart. The dart was poisonous, so it won't heal in a short time."

"Darts? You threw them?"

"Of course not, it should be Xi Tianyou's enemy."

"..."

"How are you going to resolve this matter?"

Wen Xingchen said: "Of course, we are waiting for the Xi family to apologize."

"You broke someone's leg, and you expect them to apologize to you?"

"Dad, he was the one who insulted me first. Even if he came looking for me, I'm not wrong." Wen Xingchen paused, "Why are you afraid?"

"..."

"Even if the Duke of Zhenguo has great power, he is still just a minister. There is still the emperor above him."

"Also, please send someone to the Xi family to make a fuss. If the Xi family doesn't come and apologize to this princess, this princess will never let it go."

"..."

Wen Changsheng felt like he was seeing stars.

How could my own daughter be so unreasonable?

"Do you know that if the other person's leg is broken and cannot be treated, he may be disabled for life?"

Wen Xingchen nodded.

"He's still alive. Isn't my daughter kind enough?"

"You...are simply unreasonable."

Wen Xingchen said, "Father, you are the unreasonable one. You just want to keep things quiet, but why don't you ask your daughter what Xi Tianyou did to force her to take action?"

"What did he do?"

"He slandered my daughter, saying she was a slut and had already had an affair with Prince Jin. Are you so blind and deaf that you didn't hear such rumors?"

"If you hadn't known before... that you were chasing after His Highness the Prince of Jin, then nothing would have happened today? You don't keep yourself clean, yet you blame others for talking about you?"

"Dad, are you saying that just because Xu is incompetent, I shouldn't respect her because of her incompetence?"

"..."

Wen Changsheng had some resentment towards Wen Xingchen. It was not just because he hung Wen Rubao on the tree for a whole night, but more importantly, his daughter had never regarded him as her father and always acted superior.

Wen Xingchen didn't expect Ning Yuanhou to do anything. She stood up and said, "You know that I will never stand on your side. Even if you are insulted, you will not seek justice for me."

Wen Xingchen's voice was a little hoarse, but he didn't sound sad.

You already knew that, didn't you?

"I'll take my leave. If the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion demands an explanation from me, I will bear the full responsibility."

Chen Mansion

Today, the princess was humiliated, and Chen Jingting's approach was unanimously recognized by the Chen family.

This is a completely different idea from that of the Ningyuan Marquisate.

"I have always told you that you should not have the intention to harm others, but can you be weak when being bullied?"

"Yes, Dad."

Old Madam Chen was a little worried.

"I heard that the princess broke someone's leg, and I also heard that the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion is urgently looking for a famous doctor."

"Humph, making irresponsible remarks about the royal family is a capital offense." Chen Jingxi said again.

"The previous incident where Fan Yan was beheaded for insulting the princess was already a precedent."

Chen Jingye said, "Fan Yan was arrested before because he committed heinous crimes and insulted the princess. This time, Xi Tianyou is probably in a completely different situation."

Chen Jingting said, "Xi Tianyou and Fan Yan are birds of a feather. If you want to kill him, it's not impossible."

Chen Jingye looked at his younger brother.

There was a dark look in his eyes. He knew that whenever he wanted to deal a blow to someone, he would never be passive.

"Fourth brother, have you already come up with a plan?"

"I will have the Xi family personally bring Xi Tianyou to the palace to apologize."

"what have you done?"

"..."

Chen Jingxi looked at the fourth child and said, "Don't use those despicable methods of yours. Tomorrow, Dad will go to the palace to make the decision with the princess."

Chen Jingting: ...

Chen Jingting was a playboy before, what can a playboy do? Of course, he has no shame.

Didn’t the Xi family insult Wen Xingchen?

Chen Jingting also wants to throw dirty water on the women of the Xi family.
