Chapter 431 - 431 That’s not for sure
After Breaking Off My Marriage, I Became A Powerful Minister's Treasure
431 Thatâs not for sure
Liang Mingyu felt his hair stand on end.
âThis time, Iâm just going to discuss about repairing the road. I wonât do anything, so you donât have to think too much about it,â he said with an embarrassed smile.
Liang Mingmin was by his side, and he didnât plan to lay a hand on Shi Qingluo.
He could only hope that Xiao Hanzheng was not Liang Mingminâs type, or it would be troublesome.
Liang Mingmin sneered. âForget it if you donât want to admit it.â
She stood up first. âLetâs quickly continue our journey after youâre done eating.â
Liang Mingyu, who was only half-full, remained silent.
His dislike for his younger sister increased by another level. She had never cared about other peopleâs feelings.
Now, relying on his father, the prince, and her mother, the princessâs love, she was exerting her dominance in King Jinâs residence.
Hmph, when he was promoted in the future, he would definitely not allow her to be so arrogant and overbearing.
But now, he couldnât afford to offend this younger sister of his, so he could only put down his chopsticks sullenly, stand up, and follow.
A few days later, Xiao Hanzheng also received the news that Liang Mingyu and his sister had gone to Heyang County.
Seeing her little husbandâs cold expression, Shi Qingluo asked, âWhatâs wrong?â
âLiang Mingyu brought his sister here.â Xiao Hanzheng said, âThey should be here to discuss the road construction.â
âYou donât look too happy,â Shi Qingluo asked.
Xiao Hanzheng didnât try to hide it and sighed. âThat princess is very unruly and difficult to deal with. Whatever she wants, she must get it by her side.â
Shi Qingluo raised an eyebrow. âDid she fall for you before? â
Xiao Hanzheng smiled bitterly. âIndeed.â
Shi Qingluo did not expect such a thing to happen. âShe has wooed you? â
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. âNot really. When I was a secondary second-rank deputy general in the northern army back then, she sneaked out to play and encountered bandits. I happened to meet them and saved her.
âThen she kept pestering me, wanting me to be her gigolo.
âI didnât agree. She still wanted to use force and sent people to arrest me.
âI was lucky and managed to avoid it. I was even transferred back to the capital, so she didnât get her way.
âWhen I went to the capital, she wrote a lot of letters to me, trying to persuade me to return to the northern border. She said that she would ask King Jin to give me a good job and future, but I ignored her.
If it wasnât for the fact that King Jin and the emperor are like fire meeting water and that she might have been captured as a hostage if she came to the capital, she would have gone to the capital to capture me personally.
He was also very annoyed.
Shi Qingluo reached out and pinched Xiao Hanzhengâs face. âTsk, tsk, your face really attracts so many girls! â
Xiao Hanzheng looked helpless. âWho knew she would do this? But I promise it has nothing to do with her.â
Shi Qingluo let go of his face. âWill she still be interested in you this time? â
Xiao Hanzheng said with uncertainty, âI donât think so. This time, I didnât save her when she sneaked out to play and got into trouble.â
Shi Qingluo pursed his lips. âThat might not be the case.â
She asked curiously, âIs this princess still interested in marriage?â Does she have a likable partner now?â
Xiao Hanzheng replied, âShe had a fiancé, but she didnât like him, so she used a trick to break off the engagement.
âAfter that, when she sees a good-looking man or is interested in him, she will use all kinds of means to bring him to the King Jin Residence to be her gigolo.â
Shi Qingluo thought to herself, this is too lewd.
âKing Jin and his wife donât care?â
Xiao Hanzheng shook his head. âSheâs the only legitimate daughter of the princess, so sheâs spoiled. King Jin has spoiled her since she was a child.
âShe schemed against her fiancé to be with another woman and pretended that she was hurt. She didnât want to marry again and go to her husbandâs house to suffer. She only wanted to live in the present and live happily day by day.
âThe princess canât bear to let her suffer, so she acquiesces to her thoughts and behavior of raising a male companion.
âSometimes, when Liang Mingmin canât trap the person she wants, the princess will help in secret.â
âKing Jin did not object either. He might think that he is the most powerful in the northern border and that he might be able to rule the world in the future. Therefore, his daughter can naturally live as she wishes.â
Shi Qingluo did not have much respect for King Jin and his wifeâs values.
No wonder they could raise such a shameless daughter.
If those men were willing to be her male companion, then it could only be said that it was their personal choice, and she would not think much of it.
However, if she wanted it just because she liked it, and if the man didnât agree, she would snatch it by force, this was too much.
âWhy would she want to come to Heyang County?â
She had not even met her yet, but she could not bring herself to like that little princess.
Xiao Hanzheng replied, âAccording to the time frame, she should have just broken off the engagement after scheming against her fiancé not long ago. So itâs very likely that sheâs using it as an excuse to relax. She probably wants to run out with Liang Mingyu to play.â
Shi Qingluo was lost for words. âThen her fiancé should be glad that he managed to escape from the devilâs hand.â
Otherwise, he wouldnât be wearing just a green hat on his head, but a grassland.
âNo,â Xiao Hanzheng replied helplessly.
âAfter Liang Mingmin set her fiancé up with another woman, she went to catch him in the act herself.
âThen, she got someone to break her fiancéâs hands and legs, saying that this was a lesson for betraying her. She even used this as an excuse to break off the engagement.
âAlthough the man got his limbs connected back, itâs still inconvenient for him to move. Not only will it be difficult for him to sleep with a woman in the future, but he will also need someone to serve him for life.
Her family was also implicated and King Jin was demoted. So, itâs actually worse than being on a Prairie.
This was what he had found out in his previous life after Liang Mingmin had pestered him.
Because of this, he was extremely disgusted with this woman, who was completely relying on her identity to do evil.
âAlthough Liang Mingyu has the hobby of seducing married women, he never forces them,â he continued.
âBut Liang Mingmin does things based on her mood. She likes a married man and wants to take him as her gigolo. If he doesnât agree, sheâll forcefully break up the couple.
âOr use his wife and children to threaten him. If he still doesnât agree, heâll kill his wife and children.
âIf he still doesnât agree, or if his resistance is too strong, it might even directly anger her. She wonât accept a gigolo anymore. Instead, she will cripple him to vent her anger.
âI donât know how much blood is on her hands.
âI didnât know about Liang Mingminâs identity when I saved her back then, and I didnât know about her vicious and overbearing style either. Otherwise, I would have definitely tortured her to death by those bandits.
âAfter that, Liang Mingmin came to pester him, and he regretted saving her.
After Shi Qingluo heard this, her views on her received another blow.
King Jinâs residence is really a place that hides filth and accepts dirt.
Liang Mingyuâs hobbies are abnormal, but I didnât expect his younger sister to be even better.
âKing Jin, too. As a prince, he even seduced the princess of the previous dynasty.
âFrom the looks of it, King Jinâs wife isnât a good person, right?â
Xiao Hanzheng nodded. âOn the surface, the princess is a gentle person who doesnât like to fight, but for the sake of her daughter, Liang Mingmin, she has done a lot of bad things.â
âThen why didnât she deal with Secondary Consort Hua, who has the power to manage the manor?â Shi Qingluo asked curiously.
A person with such a personality would probably not be happy to be taken advantage of.
Xiao Hanzheng replied, âSecondary Consort Huaâs power is only on the surface. The real power has always been in the hands of the princess.â
âSecondary Consort Hua is just a shield that King Jin and his wife nominated.â
They also want to make things difficult for the emperor and drive a wedge between the emperor, the empress, and the crown prince.
âKing Jin has protected his wife well. He didnât even let her touch the dirty and bloodstained things.
The princess consort doesnât care about the family.
âItâs also because sheâs impatient to deal with those madams and young ladies.
âShe doesnât want to be so tired. However, the entire back courtyard of King Jinâs family is under her control.
Shi Qingluo was taken aback. âThat means that the princess should be King Jinâs true love, right? â
Otherwise, how could she be so indulgent? That was why he indulged in the princessâ only legitimate daughter.
