After the divorce, I was adorned in a phoenix robe, while my ex-husband's entire family dug up

Lu Ze found his expression amusing, clicked his tongue twice, and left without wanting to stay any longer.

What a ridiculous joke! Lu Zhufeng is so hungry that he's going to eat Wei Zhaoning.

He was also injured by Wei Zhaoning, which made him laugh. Thinking about this, he felt a bit better and went straight to his shop to check on the harvest.

Lu Zhufeng was annoyed by the disturbance, and the royal physician exclaimed in surprise, "My lord, how did you suffer such a serious injury?"

If that weapon had been just a few inches off, my entire left arm would have been ruined.

The more Lu Zhufeng heard these words, the angrier he became.

In the end, the insecurity caused by Wei Zhaoning's departure turned into anger.

She hurt him so badly just because she was jealous of him. Is saving face really that important?

Wei Zhaoning really hasn't changed at all; he values ​​his reputation above all else and actually went for the kill!

Thinking about this, he became increasingly angry and felt that Wei Zhaoning was unforgivable.

After calming himself down for a moment, he instructed his attendant, "If Wei Zhaoning comes, stop him and say you don't want to see him!"

Wei Zhaoning has always been a maverick, always doing things his own way. After making a mistake, he would beg for forgiveness. This time would be no exception. Wei Zhaoning would definitely come to apologize, but this time he didn't want to forgive him anymore.

He had meant well by being considerate of her feelings, thinking that since they hadn't consummated their marriage, he wanted to fulfill her wish. But she, with her pride so high, trampled on his good intentions.

I will never forgive Wei Zhaoning this time, no matter what!

That night, he favored a young maid and had her serve him personally.

That little girl was quite sensible; she was very attentive to him in bed and satisfied him in every way.

But he always felt something was missing. Looking at the maid's face, he could always think of Wei Zhaoning's peach blossom face.

What would it be like if Wei Zhaoning were to submit to his affections?

The more he thought about it, the angrier he became. She was a woman who had been with him for so many years, and he had never even touched her once. It was such a pity.

Thinking about it carefully, Wei Zhaoning's looks and figure were superior to Wei Jiaruo's. He really regretted how he had been so blinded by love before. He should have slept with her first.

Now that this whole mess has happened, it's even harder to get him to cooperate. There's no way he'd lower himself to appease Wei Zhaoning; Wei Zhaoning is the one who should apologize to him.

Thinking of this, he turned over in annoyance. A maid's sweet, cloying voice rang out, "My lord, what's wrong?"

Lu Zhufeng was annoyed when he heard the voice. He glared at the maid and then turned and left.

The maid stood frozen in panic, wondering if she had done something wrong to displease the Marquis.

Lu Zhufeng hesitated for a long time before finally asking his attendant, "Where is Wei Zhaoning? Has she come today?"

The servant, puzzled, earnestly reported, "Your Majesty, the lady returned this afternoon and is currently in her courtyard. She hasn't come here today."

Lu Zhufeng asked incredulously, "What did you say?!"

The servant finally sensed something was wrong and lowered his head, saying, "Madam... hasn't been here."

Lu Zhufeng's face turned visibly red, with veins bulging. How could this be?

He glanced at the panicked servants, cleared his throat, and said, "It's better that they didn't come; it saves me the trouble of seeing them."

From now on, when she comes, she shall not be allowed to enter.

"Yes."

Lu Zhufeng rubbed his face hard with his hands, but the movement aggravated the wound on his left shoulder. He hissed and kicked the chair next to him hard in the darkness, then punched the wall despite the pain.

"Fine, you're not coming, huh? You're being presumptuous, aren't you? You'll never get my forgiveness!"

"You're asking for it!"

He stormed back to the maid's quarters, vented his anger several times, and finally calmed down and went to sleep contentedly.

The maid was overjoyed, thinking that she would probably become the mistress tomorrow. Watching Lu Zhufeng fall into a deep sleep, her heart raced.

at the same time.

Wei Zhaoning packed his things overnight, saying, "Hurry up and pack, we're getting ready to run away."

Dongxu was a little tired. "Miss, didn't we say we were going to stay at the Marquis's residence for a few more days? Why are you in such a hurry?"

Wei Zhaoning said, "Let's pack it up first, so it'll be easier to carry it later."

She was actually frightened by Lu Zhufeng and felt uneasy. Only by quickly putting her things away could she calm down temporarily, otherwise she was afraid that something unexpected might happen.

Dongxu rubbed her eyes. "Alright! Miss, I'm still a little worried. Isn't the Seventh Princess still in the Regent's Palace?"

Although she and Miss are on good terms, it's only because she thinks Miss won't get involved with the Prince that she's making peace with you. If you were to marry him... sigh, Miss, why is your life so miserable, never a moment of peace.

Wei Zhaoning laughed and said, "We'll explain it clearly when the time comes that it's a transaction. The Seventh Princess isn't an unreasonable person. No matter how bad she is, she won't be worse than the Marquis's mansion."

Once everything has settled down, I will take you back to the Duke's mansion.

For some reason, a sense of guilt flashed through her mind when she said those words.

Was she truly innocent before the Regent?

Is it really just a transaction?

The two worked late into the night, packing up everything except for the necessities they would need in the next few days.

Finally, Wei Zhaoning said, "Dongxu, tomorrow when you get up, find a way to tell Wei Jiaruo about Lu Zhufeng forcing me. I want to see what she will reveal after she can't sit still anymore."

"Yes, ma'am."

She wouldn't dare leave the Marquis's residence without thoroughly investigating the situation.

Fortunately, since the last warning to Aunt Qin, nothing else went wrong in the Duke's mansion, and after Wei Xiao was exiled by the Regent, the shop returned to normal.

Although everything was moving in a positive direction, she felt inexplicably uneasy, as if things wouldn't end so quickly.

When Liu Xiang told Wei Jiaruo about Lu Zhufeng almost consummating his marriage with Wei Zhaoning, Wei Jiaruo was taking a walk in the courtyard and almost tripped and fell.

"You scared me to death!"

Liu Xiang hurriedly helped her up, "I'm so sorry, I'm so sorry, I deserve to die, I deserve to die. How are you feeling, Madam?"

Wei Jiaruo's belly grew bigger every day, and she was already seven or eight months along. She would be giving birth soon, and this shock made her stomach hurt a little.

"Help me inside quickly."

Only after the imperial physician examined her and confirmed that she was alright did Wei Jiaruo feel relieved.

You could tell from her words that she was very angry.

"That shameless woman, Wei Zhaoning, actually took advantage of my pregnancy to seduce the Marquis! Did she really think that because the Marquis and I had a fight, she could take advantage of the situation? What a shameless slut!"

Wei Jiaru cursed mercilessly.

Liu Xiang tentatively said, "Madam, you must think of a solution as soon as possible. I heard that she stabbed the Marquis, but he didn't blame her. If this continues..."

Wei Jiaruo quickly smashed several cups. "Playing hard to get?"
