108 ways to die for supporting characters

Chapter 527: Unfaithful Scholar 1
This is a world where women are supreme.

The original owner was a peasant girl, a well-educated peasant girl. Her mother died early, and her father embroidered to support her studies. After she passed the imperial examination and became a scholar, her father's eyesight was not very good, so he could no longer work to earn money, and he could not do farm work either. It happened that the Yuan family, a merchant family in the county, was interested in marrying their eldest son to their family, and they hinted that they could support the original owner's studies.

The original owner has been motivated. Who wants to suffer when they can live a better life? Although Yuan Xihua does not meet her aesthetic standards, it is not impossible for her to marry him in the future.

Women in this world can have three husbands and four mistresses.

These three husbands are all legal husbands, and their relationship is equal. The maids can still be bought and sold, but if you sell one, you have used up the quota of four maids. Once the quota of three husbands and four maids is reached, you cannot marry again, otherwise it is illegal.

He will be sentenced to three years' imprisonment.

It means that you can take in a servant if you want, but once it is discovered that you have taken too much, whether you are a husband or a servant, you will be forced to serve as a laborer in a remote place for three years.

This can also be considered as an alternative protection for men.

Of course, only people with good conditions would marry three husbands and four concubines, while those rich people or officials would not be stupid enough to serve three years of hard labor for a man.

Therefore, a woman can have seven men. Even if the original owner holds a high official position in the future, Yuan Xihua, as the original owner's first husband, should be safe.

But what can be done, the original owner is not a human being.

With the support of the Yuan family, she won the top spot in the imperial examination. In the palace, after the emperor asked her some tricky questions and got satisfactory answers, he came up with the idea of ​​arranging a marriage for her, and the object was her favorite third prince.

When she heard that she could marry the third prince, she was extremely happy. However, during the days she was preparing for the exam in Beijing, she heard a lot of stories about the royal family. The woman the eldest prince married was the daughter of the Duke's Mansion. She only married the eldest prince and had no other husband or maids. The second prince married the Minister of the Ministry of Revenue, who also had one wife and one husband and no maids.

She was afraid that the marriage would fall through, so when the emperor asked her about it, she said that she was still unmarried. The emperor then granted marriage to the third prince and the original owner on the spot.

The original owner was happy, but she felt a headache after leaving the palace holding the imperial edict.

What should Yuan Xihua do?
After thinking all night, she finally made the stupidest decision in a fit of anger. When she came to Beijing, the Yuan family gave her a lot of silver. Before she spent it all, she used the silver to hire a killer to kill people in her hometown to silence them.

She not only wants to kill Zhengfu, but also the entire Yuan family.

Yuan Xihua's elder sister managed to escape with her life. After five years of investigation and knowing the truth, she went directly to the capital to file a complaint with the emperor.

At that time, the Second Princess had successfully rebelled, the Crown Princess was imprisoned, and the Third Prince, the late emperor's favorite son, was already having a hard time, and the Second Princess was trying to find a way to deal with him. She took advantage of this incident to pin the blame on the Third Prince and sentenced both of them to immediate execution.

After Ning Yan received the original owner's memories, she wanted to pull the original owner out and kill him again!
What is the grudge?

Not to mention that a husband and wife are bound by a hundred days of grace after being together for a day, even if he paid for your studies and helped you become the top scholar, you couldn't do such a thing as destroying an entire family, right?
"Ning is a very talented scholar, and he is very eloquent. I like him very much. I wonder if he is married now?"

Asking this means that he wants to grant the marriage, and the marriage must be to the prince. To be honest, few people can refuse this opportunity.

Ning Yan quickly bowed and said, "In reply to the emperor, I have been married three years ago. I was able to participate in the imperial examinations because of my husband's dowry. Otherwise, I would not be where I am today."

Today, the top three among them have been directly granted official positions by the emperor, and she is now a sixth-rank editor in the Hanlin Academy.

Therefore, he can call himself a humble official, otherwise he can only be a student, a disciple of the emperor.

There was a hint of regret in the emperor's eyes. He originally wanted to give such a good girl to his son. What a pity.

After returning home from court, Ning Yan immediately wrote a letter to her hometown, asking them to move to the capital as soon as possible to live with her.

Before coming to Beijing, Yuan Xihua had planned to come and take care of her, but Yuan's father suddenly fell ill, so he had to stay at home to take care of him. Later, when Yuan's father recovered, he didn't dare to go alone, so he simply waited at home, hoping to wait for the good news before moving to Beijing with his family, which would be safer. In a country where women are respected, men learn knitting, needlework, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they really have no ability to protect themselves. If something happens and their innocence is lost, they really can't live.

After the letter was sent, Ning Yan used the remaining money to buy a nice house in Beijing.

Before, the original owner was devoted to studying and was somewhat ignorant of common things. After coming to Beijing, he never thought about buying a house and had been living in an inn.

The two maids around her did remind her, but unfortunately the original owner refused to listen. The two maids were afraid of delaying their master's imperial examination, so they did not dare to persuade her too much.

Ning Yan couldn't do this. She had to repay a grudge tenfold, and she had to repay a favor tenfold. Before, it was others who supported her and paid for her studies, and now it was her turn to repay the Yuan family.

The Yuan family was a merchant family. Although they were rich, their status was relatively low. They also wanted to take part in the imperial examination, but their family's genes were not good. That's why they were attracted by the original owner's smart and studious brain, hoping that they would give birth to a smart child, and one of the children would have the surname Yuan.

Unfortunately, Yuan Xihua has not been able to get pregnant after three years of marriage. However, if Ning Yan takes over, this request can be fulfilled quickly.

She happily bought a house, furnished it, and hired servants.

The third prince over there is not going to do it anymore.

Do you think the emperor will suddenly ask about the original owner’s marriage?

It was only after the Third Prince mentioned it to the Emperor that the Emperor noticed the original owner.

Because the third prince was a beauty lover, he met the original owner once by chance. When he learned that she was a candidate going to Beijing to take the imperial examination this year, he kept staring at her. Knowing that she was only accompanied by two maids, he began to have some feelings for her.

I didn't expect that she was so talented and actually got the top score in the imperial examination. I had the idea of ​​marrying no one but her.

But he didn't expect that the person he liked was already married.

How could he accept that he, a prince, couldn't even get the woman he wanted?

So, Ning Yan was stopped during the day's shift.

"Master Ning, my master invites you to the carriage for a chat."

Ning Yan looked at the carriage behind the servant. The carriage was extremely luxurious, and the shaft was made of rosewood. The servant in front of her was wearing fine cloth clothes, so his master should be very noble.

"I wonder who your master is?"

Attendant: "The Third Prince."

Ning Yan thought about it for a moment and said, "There are differences between men and women. If it's convenient for the Third Prince, there is a teahouse in front. Why not go there and have a cup of tea."

If the two of them were seen in the same car, it would be detrimental to the Third Prince's reputation.

It’s different in teahouses, because people tell stories in teahouses, and even in private rooms, one side is open.

They can talk without being overheard by others, and without being accused of having a private affair.

The third prince in the carriage curled his lips. As expected of the person he liked, she was thoughtful in every detail.

Soon, the third prince got off the carriage.
