I became the tyrant's only belief.

Chapter 5: Men know what they think best
He dare not.

She didn't dare to deceive in front of Xiao Jingfan, the woman who had been coaxed by him countless times and who was willing to give up her dignity as a royal princess and be his virtuous wife and take care of everything for him as long as he said a few sweet words.

"You know."

A tear rolled down the corner of her eye. The eldest princess pursed her lips and raised her hand to wipe it away, her voice full of disappointment.

After three years of marriage, she had never seen the true face of the man beside her.

Is there anyone in the world more stupid than her?

The last tiny flame of light in her eyes was extinguished by the cruelty of the man beside her.

"Why?" The princess questioned the man in front of her, "Yu'er is also your son, your legitimate son! Why do you want to harm him?"

She didn't understand. Was it because her status was not noble enough or she was not virtuous enough? Why would the two people she treated with such sincerity turn around and harm her and her child?
The prince consort's eyes were evasive, feeling a little guilty, but then he thought that after becoming the prince consort, he would no longer be able to hold real power, and would be unable to make further progress, and he became filled with resentment.

If it weren't for Princess Shang, how could he have become a marginal figure in the military camp with the reputation he had accumulated in the Nanyang Marquis's Mansion?

After being humiliated outside, he still had to coax this pampered princess when he returned home.

The princess had no sympathy for him at all. Not only was she unfilial to her mother-in-law, she also looked down on him as a scion of the Nanyang Marquis's Mansion, leaving him caught in the middle.

He lowered his eyelids to hide the resentment and resentment in his eyes, and said in a cold tone: "Princess, just think of it as me who has let you down."

[Bah! You scumbag! What do you mean you are sorry? It is you who are sorry to the princess! ]

[Why didn't you say you didn't want to marry the princess? You eat her food, use her things, live in her house, and now you blame her, right? You want more, you want more, you're so beautiful! Ugh! ! ]

"You blame me?" How could the princess not hear the resentment in her husband's words? There was some confusion in her eyes. Could it be that she had done something wrong?
"Of course he blames you." Xiao Jingfan's voice came from behind, full of sarcasm, "He blames you for blocking his path to success, for having the status of the eldest princess but not being able to bring greater benefits to the Nanyang Marquis's Mansion other than material wealth, and for not allowing the children of the Nanyang Marquis's Mansion to rise to fame with him."

Men know best what they are thinking.

Xiao Jingfan could see through the prince consort's thoughts with just one glance.

This is a selfish, heartless scum!

The prince consort was so angry that his face turned red, partly because of shame and the other part because his secrets were touched upon.

If the person who said this was not the emperor, he would have cursed at him long ago!
What nonsense are you talking about?

The eldest princess widened her beautiful eyes in astonishment. It turned out to be because of this.

However, it was obvious that Qin Lang was looking for an opportunity to get close to her, please her, and want to marry her.

She was moved by Qin Lang's sincerity, and because Qin Lang was tall and handsome, and looked just what she wanted, she was willing to go to Xiao Jingfan to ask for marriage and wanted to marry him.

Otherwise, how could such a small Nanyang Marquis Mansion catch her eye?
At that time, Xiao Jingfan disagreed, saying that Qin Lang had a bad character and was not a good match.

She had a big quarrel with Xiao Jingfan over Qin Lang and they parted on bad terms. She fell ill after returning home.

After two days of illness, he thought that the marriage was hopeless, but on the third day, the imperial decree arrived at the Princess's Mansion.

But since then, Xiao Jingfan no longer wanted to see her. She could only see her brother from afar when she attended palace banquets.

It would be a lie to say that I have no regrets.

She reflected on it and wondered if she had spoken to Xiao Jingfan properly that day, would they not have quarreled? Would they not have quarreled to the point where they couldn't even say a word to each other?
Qin Lang also repeatedly advised her to go to the palace more often. At that time, she thought Qin Lang was considerate. Now it seems that this was not considerate at all. It was obvious that he wanted her to enter the palace to seek benefits for the Nanyang Marquis's Mansion. It was just that she was dazzled by Qin Lang's pretended tenderness at that time and did not see it.

All the memories of the past three years flashed through her mind like a kaleidoscope of events, those tender feelings, those kind words, those actions that seemed to be considerate and for her own good but were actually full of calculations... "yue~" The eldest princess felt her stomach churning and could not help but dry-heaving while holding her chest.

Xiao Jingfan immediately winked at Doctor Li.

Doctor Li stepped forward quickly, but the princess waved her hand at him, "I'm fine."

She raised her head, her eyes red from retching, and looked directly into the eyes of her husband, her eyes full of disgust, "Qin Lang, you make me sick!"

As soon as these words were spoken, the blood drained from the prince consort's face, turning it blue and white, looking as ugly as a ghost.

Looking at the indifferent face opposite him, he felt uneasy for no reason. He opened his mouth to say something, but the eldest princess had already turned around and walked towards Xiao Jingfan supported by Nanny Liu without even giving him a glance.

It seemed as if looking at her any longer would dirty her eyes.

The Imperial Guards blocked the prince consort's mouth with a towel again. The prince consort could only watch the eldest princess's thin figure moving farther and farther away from him, step by step walking out of the cage he had woven with three years of lies.

"Princess." Nanny Liu called out worriedly.

"Don't worry, Madam. I'm fine." The eldest princess smiled. "There will be some reaction after removing the cancer."

She came close to Xiao Jingfan and bowed: "Your Majesty, please allow me to divorce you."

The emperor granted the marriage, so naturally the emperor's consent was needed for the divorce. Moreover, she did not want a divorce, but to divorce her husband.

[Wow! Decisive divorce, timely cut of losses, the eldest princess is awesome! ]

Chu Liuzheng gave her a thumbs up in his heart and secretly glanced at Xiao Jingfan.

[Tyrant, please agree to this! Help your sister get rid of this scumbag! ]

"Ridiculous! How can a woman divorce her husband?"

Before Xiao Jingfan could say anything, Zhang Yu stood up and objected sharply.

From ancient times to the present, only men can divorce their wives. How can a woman divorce her husband?

Even the princess of the royal family cannot do that.

The princess should set an example and be a role model for her subjects. How could she do such a ridiculous thing as divorcing her husband?
"I agree." Xiao Jingfan turned a deaf ear to what Grand Secretary Zhang said and helped the eldest princess up with his own hands.

The eldest princess' eyes became hot and she almost shed tears.

But Grand Secretary Zhang became anxious and fell to his knees with a thud.

"Your Majesty, please think twice! Even if the Prince Consort was wrong, the Princess was also responsible for failing to supervise. Besides, it is normal for a man to have three wives and four concubines. If the Princess was virtuous and took the initiative to take a few concubines for the Prince Consort, the Prince Consort would not have kept a mistress, and the matter would not have developed to the irreversible point it is now.

Since both parties are at fault, the divorce should be peaceful. How can the princess dare to divorce her husband? Your Majesty, please withdraw your order. Do not violate the secular etiquette and ancestral rules, and invite the world to laugh at you! "

The two ministers also spoke out in opposition.

The Minister of Revenue Wen Yan said, "Your Majesty, women cannot divorce their husbands! If the people follow suit, it will cause unrest in their families and chaos in the country!"

The Minister of Personnel Meng Haoyuan said: "Your Majesty, this is not in accordance with etiquette. Please think twice and do not give the world an advantage."
