"I... Fengqie, what I'm going to say next may be hard for you to accept, but it's already a fact. You must take it easy," Shen Yiru said, followed by a sigh.
Mu Fengqie nodded. There were only so many things that could happen. Could there be anything more painful than losing her child?
She had already lost her child and Xiaoqing, and had seen many things clearly. As long as the green mountains remain, there will always be firewood. So she cherished the friends who were still by her side.
"The emperor has issued an imperial decree to arrange a marriage. Presumably that woman will marry into the general's mansion in a while and be a co - wife with you," Shen Yiru said while observing Mu Fengqie's reaction. No one would want the murderer who killed their child and maid to live under the same roof and serve the same husband, seeing each other every day.
Mu Fengqie didn't show much emotion when she heard this. Bei Moxue was so obsessed that she was willing to take Mu Fengqie's life to marry Jing Xinche. So Mu Fengqie had long expected this day.
Actually, for Mu Fengqie, only when Bei Moxue married in would she have more opportunities to take revenge. She would never let that woman have an easy time. She would torture her bit by bit, break her down bit by bit, and make her life a living hell!
"I know. It's no big deal. I'll just ignore her. No matter how high her status is, she's on an equal footing with me. Why should I be afraid of her?" Mu Fengqie sneered.
Her words took everyone by surprise. They thought she would be heart - broken, but instead, she was as calm as an onlooker.
Li Wantong frowned and asked worriedly, "Fengqie, since you're the princess of Tianlin, if you're not willing, you can ask Tianlin for help. Let Tianlin put pressure on the emperor. Presumably the emperor will weigh the pros and cons, and then the seventh princess won't get what she wants."
"Yes, sister. You're not alone. You still have Tianlin. If father and mother know you've been wronged, they'll surely flatten Beiming. I'll write a letter right away and ask father to intervene!"
As soon as she finished speaking, A Ru was about to rush away. Mu Fengqie quickly grabbed her and explained, "Don't go. We can't let uncle and aunt know about this. Otherwise, they'll worry again.
Actually, I have my reasons for doing this. I must avenge the death of my child and Xiaoqing. Only when she marries in can I find opportunities to torture her slowly."
Hearing this, all three of them brightened up. No one had thought of such a way. In this case, they had nothing to worry about.
"Sister, I'm here for you. Sister Yiru and Sister Wantong can't be with you all the time, but I can! That woman definitely won't dare to bully you!" A Ru said angrily, pouting.
Mu Fengqie smiled. She wasn't a timid person. If anyone wanted to ride roughshod over her, they were just daydreaming!
When Jing Xinche returned to the general's mansion, the sun was setting. He had been busy for the past few days. Fortunately, A Ru had been in the mansion to accompany Mu Fengqie, so he could feel a bit more at ease.
"You're back. Why are you so late today? Is there some trouble again?" Mu Fengqie asked tentatively.
She had already learned about the imperial marriage decree from Shen Yiru. Since even Shen Yiru knew about it, it was obvious that the marriage decree had been issued for some time. This meant that Jing Xinche had deliberately kept it from her.
She didn't know what he was thinking. She didn't understand why he didn't dare to tell her about this. She really didn't know if there was any place for that bitch in his heart.
She asked this to test his feelings. As long as he had the slightest thought of being unfaithful to her, she would never stay by his side.
Jing Xinche shook his head and replied gently, "No. It's just that the court has been busy recently. Are you bored at home? Or do you miss me?"
Mu Fengqie was stunned. She had made it so obvious, but he still didn't tell the truth. What was his intention?
"No. Do you... have anything you want to say to me? Or something hard to say?" Mu Fengqie asked again.
She didn't believe that Jing Xinche, the person involved, would be unaware of the imperial marriage decree when even Shen Yiru knew about it.
Jing Xinche was very perceptive. He also felt that Mu Fengqie was acting strangely, and his face became a bit unnatural.
"You already know? I was actually against this, but there's nothing I can do. But don't worry, I'll never let her enter this mansion."
Jing Xinche's cold eyes stared fixedly ahead. In his heart, he hated Bei Moxue to the core. But for now, his power was not enough to fight against the entire Qin Dynasty and other countries. He had been cornered by a woman.
Hearing his words and seeing his nervous expression, Mu Fengqie suddenly let go of her guard. Maybe she had over - thought.
"The emperor has already issued the imperial marriage decree. How can you refuse?" Mu Fengqie said helplessly.
When the soldiers come, we'll block them; when the water comes, we'll dam it. Since there's no other way, we'll just go with the flow. This is the only option!
Jing Xinche looked at Mu Fengqie tenderly with his eyes, but his tone was extremely cold, "Death! As long as she's dead, everything will be solved. No one in this world can threaten me!"
Mu Fengqie twitched the corner of her mouth. Sure enough, a tough man's way of solving problems was so bloody and brutal. Mu Fengqie wouldn't let Bei Moxue die so easily. That would be too good for her.
She wanted to torture her severely, break her down severely, and let her experience the feeling of living in hell...
"You can't do this. Since the emperor has issued the decree, you should marry her in a grand manner. Leave the rest to me. You don't need to worry about anything else."
The best way to torture a person is often to let her reach the peak and then fall into the abyss, experiencing the feeling of being smashed to pieces.
When Bei Moxue married in, she would surely be extremely glorious and very proud. So the higher the hope, the greater the disappointment. Mu Fengqie would slowly drive Bei Moxue crazy.
Jing Xinche looked at her with a suspicious look in his eyes. He thought she would strongly object, but he didn't expect her to agree so calmly. However, this didn't mean that he could accept it.
"Qier, you don't have to wrong yourself like this. The child was also mine. As the father, I won't let the murderer enter this mansion. One day, we'll kill the murderer with our own hands and avenge our poor child," Jing Xinche said while holding Mu Fengqie's hand lovingly.
Mu Fengqie was always so sensible, so sensible that it made people feel heart - ache. Seeing her submissive appearance, Jing Xinche wished he could give the whole world to her.
