C249 (1/2)

When Lian Ruyue heard this, her hand that was holding the brush suddenly stopped. The ink fell onto the white paper, causing a piece of it to turn black.

She put down her brush, walked in front of Le Yan, held her hands, and comforted her gently, ”Le Yan, don't think too much. Aunt may have something to discuss with your father, do you understand?”

”...” ”Right.” Le Yan wanted to say something, but seeing how her mother was acting, she nodded and softly said, ”Mother, I understand.”

Le Yan, Le Yan!

Mother really wanted to kill herself so much, did you see what you shouldn't have seen then? You wanted to remind your mother to be on guard against Lian Shiya, but I didn't believe you. I thought you were just a child that didn't understand adult matters. Correction: At this time, Le Yan is five years old.]

Every time she saw Feng Qianyue, she would involuntarily think of her daughter and son, and she would be unable to hold back her heartbreaking tears. But from today onwards, Feng Qianyue would never see her tears again.

She slowly raised her head, looked at Feng Qianyue, and said:

”Fourth Prince, using a marriage to exchange for the support of the Duke of Xiao, it's not a loss, right?” Just as Feng Qianyue was filled with deep emotions, he heard Lian Xiyue's ice-cold words.

Her words were like a bucket of cold water being poured on his head. His body trembled as he looked at her incomparably cold face. A wave of anger slowly rose from the bottom of his feet as his eyes turned cold:

”Lian Ruyue, I really want to kill you!”

That's right, he was planning a conspiracy with Xiao Zhenhai. However, this thought did not arise after Xiao Zhenhai had won the battle. Many years ago, he had been secretly observing and considering who was his best helper on the road to power. In the end, he had locked onto Xiao Zhenhai, who was still a rank 4 Martial General.

All these years, he had been secretly collecting all the information he could regarding Xiao Zhenhai. As a result, he was prepared for this negotiation and was confident that Xiao Zhenhai would agree.

But now, even though he was in cahoots with him, in the eyes of others, he had become someone who would not hesitate to marry an incomplete woman in order to obtain Xiao Zhenhai. In the eyes of his royal father, he, who had always been a low-profile, patient and patient fourth son, was actually such a reckless person. In the future, he would definitely take extra precautions against him.

The most important and detestable thing was that he had actually married a disgusting person that made him want to puke. In the future, they would have to face each other day and even raise a case against her. They had children!

So on the surface, it seemed that the most powerful duke in the court had become his father-in-law. He had obtained what he wanted, but in reality, he had lost even more.

Am I wrong? This world was like this, getting some would make one lose some. Since His Highness had gotten what he wanted, what was the imbalance between paying a little more and so on? And some people give up everything and get nothing. They even lose everything in the end and they still have to clench their teeth and live on. So, Fourth Prince is actually already a winner. ” ”Even Ru Yue's lips had a trace of mockery. She wanted anything, so how could there be such a good thing?

”Heh …” Feng Qianyue suddenly laughed, and the pained expression in his eyes became cold. He looked at Lian Xiyue and said, ”Lian Xiyue, do you think that I'll let you go just because I married Xiao Rou? You're thinking too much! My future path will definitely be a bloody one. I don't know when the tip of the blade will pierce through my toes, but I will definitely drag you along with me! Don't even think about getting away with it! As for Ninth Brother … ” His smile became cold, ”His carefree and carefree days should come to an end, it's better if you come find me!”

After he finished speaking, he turned around and left with big steps, his whole body was filled with anger.

”Shua!” Lian Ruyue put down the carriage's curtain with a cold expression and said, ”Let's hurry!”

By the time he returned to the Prime Minister's estate, the sky had already darkened. Even Lu Yue went to pay her respects to his mother and his wife, and after hearing from the servants that his wife and the third miss had returned, the third miss seemed very unhappy and didn't even have time to eat dinner before she fell asleep.

Lian Ruyue lightly smiled and said, ”Sleep? I'm afraid that once they regain their senses, they will be unable to sleep at night. ”

Qing Dai didn't understand what she meant, but she didn't ask any further. When she returned to her lotus flower courtyard, all the lanterns in the manor were lit up.

Lian Ruyue stood at the door, staring at the two lanterns hanging above the door. A warm yellow halo quietly shone, occasionally swaying.
