Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 201

"What I mean is that Yue'er has always deeply loved me. Otherwise, why would she reject you? The reason she was willing to marry me in the first place was because she loved me."

Lin Huangjin: "......"

"You're already divorced. If she really loved you, she wouldn't have divorced you. And Lord Shen, please think before you speak. She's just a woman, no match for you, so why go to such lengths to destroy her?" Pei Shang felt disgusted by Shen Yue's words and couldn't understand where his confidence and sense of superiority came from.

"One word from you could ruin her."

They didn't consummate their marriage, but they said it on purpose.

If someone actually heard this and took it seriously, who would sincerely want to marry her?

,

Exposed, Shen Yue was embarrassed, but he didn't explain. He simply said, "What's wrong with consummating the marriage? Yun Xiyue will come back to me sooner or later."

"Hmm, Young Master Pei is right." Lin Huangjin's expression softened slightly, then he raised an eyebrow at Murong Yu, "Your Majesty, what do you think?"

The three of them immediately turned to look at him, eagerly awaiting his answer. After all, his quick run to catch Yun Xiyue had been quite intriguing. They were curious whether the Emperor also had feelings for Yun Xiyue.

But think about it, how could an emperor possibly like a divorced woman who had remarried? He wasn't lacking in women, and besides, he had three thousand beauties in his harem, yet he never seemed to touch them.

It is said that this emperor was indifferent to women. No matter how beautiful a woman was, even if she stripped naked and tried to seduce him, he never felt any lust.

Lin Huangjin has the right to speak on this point. He once sent a female spy to seduce Murong Yu with her body and even drugged him. Despite using every means possible, the female spy's mission still failed, and she was eventually skinned alive. Just thinking about it makes one feel terrified by this man's willpower.

And then there are his ruthless methods.

Murong Yu glanced coldly at the group, seeing through their thoughts at a glance, picked up his bow and arrow, and fired an arrow in Shen Yue's direction.

Shen Yue was startled and dodged the arrow, which struck the bullseye behind him. Looking back, he was horrified. "Your Majesty..."

“Miss Yun is indeed as outstanding as the Third Prince said. It’s only natural that anyone would be attracted to such a woman. However, Lord An, you are your ex-husband who was eliminated long ago, so it seems you have no right to interfere in her affairs.”

"A decent man should at least be upright and respect women, and not take advantage of a weak and innocent woman just because he is a powerful and influential man."

"Especially since she loved you, how dare you say that? I'm ashamed for you."

Shen Yue's face instantly turned pale, alternating between red and green.

He bullied her, and not just once. When she was in the Marquis's mansion, he took advantage of her being alone and helpless, unable to fight back. He also looked down on her because she came from a merchant family, thinking that the Yun family was not as powerful and influential as the Shen family. Even when her parents came to the capital, he didn't take them seriously.

And yesterday, in front of everyone, he brought the entire Shen family to bully her, a woman.

It almost killed her.

Immediately afterwards, Murong Yu drew his bow and aimed at Lin Huangjin.

Lin Huangjin broke out in a cold sweat. "I didn't bully her. Yesterday was a misunderstanding. It's all Lord Shen's fault..."

Whoosh!

The arrow grazed his ear and hit the bullseye.

Murong Yu laughed and said, "Why is the Third Prince so nervous? There's a saying that goes, 'If you have a clear conscience, you have nothing to fear.' Your guilty conscience is not like you."

"But you ask me, how are you?"

Lin Huangjin: "......" Why did you suddenly stop talking?

Murong Yu paused for a moment, seemingly considering what merit he could offer. “I’m wondering if your Southern Qiang Kingdom can really provide 200,000 warhorses to marry her? The Southern Qiang Kingdom is not under your rule now, and the Third Prince is not even the future crown prince.”

"Shouldn't you weigh your own capabilities before making a promise? Otherwise, you'll be the one who makes a fool of yourself and loses face."

Lin Huangjin's expression changed slightly; these words had touched a nerve.

If they knew Yun Xiyue's identity, let alone 200,000 warhorses as a betrothal gift, it wouldn't be easy to even marry her as a concubine.

Murong Yu couldn't help but sneer at his regretful expression. "And the Divine Doctor Ghost Hand watched her grow up; he's her elder. Even he said you're not good enough for her. Sigh, Third Prince, it's not that I don't support you."

His entire army was wiped out.

Lin Huangjin's face instantly turned as black as the bottom of a pot. He suspected that he was gloating, but he had no evidence. He was furious!
