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

The Seventh Princess and Prince Rong still couldn't stand Wei Zhaoning.

I really don't understand, what kind of vixen is she that makes my brother so infatuated? Did she drug him? She's completely bewitched him.

They heard that their elder brother had broken off his engagement with Xiao Mengxi because of Wei Zhaoning, and had even stood in the snow to apologize to Wei Zhaoning for several days and nights, catching a cold in the process. They were truly disappointed in him and filled with anger towards Wei Zhaoning!

However, they dared not do anything. The Emperor treated Wei Zhaoning like a treasure, and if they dared to do anything, he would probably get angry and kick them out!

But these two are never easy to mess with, nor are they the kind of people who can swallow their anger. If you tell them not to do something, they can just do it quietly.

As long as my elder brother doesn't know.

As a result, Wei Zhaoning often had some accidents, such as finding caterpillars in her breakfast, accidentally having ice water poured over her head by a maid while walking, or inexplicably slipping and falling flat on her face...

The Seventh Princess and Prince Rong thought their plan was foolproof, and believed that if they continued, Wei Zhaoning would eventually lose patience and leave.

That day, Wei Zhaoning found a poisonous scorpion in his food again.

"Miss, are we just going to let them cause trouble like this? Why not just tell the Prince directly!"

Dongxu threw away the food, feeling indignant.

Wei Zhaoning shook her head. "Will they quiet down if I tell the prince? It'll only end up hurting both sides, and neither of them will feel good about it. They just need time to accept me. They're not bad people at heart, there's no need for that."

Dongxu pouted, "We can't keep going like this, can we? Why don't we fight back and see if they dare to complain to the Prince!"

Wei Zhaoning already had a plan in mind and was just waiting for the right opportunity. She asked, "Is the young Prince Rong going back to Meishan soon?"

Dongxu said, "They said they'd be leaving the day after tomorrow, apparently to go back and discuss something, but I'm not entirely sure."

Wei Zhaoning smiled confidently.

When Prince Rong returned, he was somewhat reluctant. It wasn't that he liked to be lazy or didn't want to go back to review his lessons; it was just that he hadn't resolved his inner conflict with Wei Zhaoning, and he was always unhappy about it.

But there was no other way; he had been away for long enough, and if he didn't go back soon, Meishan might not want him anymore.

Fortunately, he wouldn't have to stay long this time before returning for the New Year. He pondered how to get rid of this annoying woman next time he came back.

Before leaving, he glared fiercely at Wei Zhaoning, as if giving a warning.

Wei Zhaoning lowered her eyes and said nothing.

After Prince Rong left, Wei Zhaoning walked up to the Seventh Princess and gave her a brocade pouch.

The Seventh Princess looked at her suspiciously. "What are you doing? Let me tell you, it's no use trying to please me. There's no need for this pretense between us."

Wei Zhaoning pointed at the brocade pouch, "A brocade pouch that Princess Jiayi would beg for, don't you want it?"

The Seventh Princess and Princess Jiayi continue their rivalry and subtle competition. Now, they've set their sights on the calming sachet specially made by the divine physician. Unfortunately, the physician refuses to give it to them, and the two are now vying to see who can get their hands on it first.

As expected, the Seventh Princess accepted the brocade pouch. "How did you get it?"

Wei Zhaoning said, "I have a good relationship with the divine doctor, and I like you very much, so I'm giving this to you."

The Seventh Princess's heart skipped a beat, then she said fiercely, "I don't owe you anything. I'll have someone bring the money over later; consider it money I bought it for you. I'll say it again, don't even think about trying to curry favor with me!"

Wei Zhaoning didn't speak, but just smiled and nodded.

That brocade pouch was indeed from a divine physician, but Wei Zhaoning had secretly replaced the medicinal herbs inside. Looking at the Seventh Princess's retreating figure, Wei Zhaoning couldn't help but feel worried.

I don't know if the medicinal herbs inside are effective.

When Lu Zhufeng learned that Wei Zhaoning had returned to the Prince's Mansion, he went completely insane.

He spent his days smashing things in the Marquis's mansion with disheveled hair, cursing people, and reeking of alcohol, which disgusted the servants, but they dared not say anything.

He spends all day in the mansion cursing Wei Zhaoning as a whore and the Regent as a dog couple, daring to play with him like this!

He had nowhere to vent his anger; he just wanted to kill the two of them, but unfortunately he didn't have the strength to do so, so he could only rage in his own mansion.

He poured jar after jar of strong liquor into his mouth, lying horizontally in the room, looking like a dead fish.

When he was deeply drunk, he murmured, "Ningning... Ningning, quickly make me a bowl of hangover soup."

He was no longer fully conscious; he seemed not to have realized that Wei Zhaoning was really gone.

He muttered to himself like that, and then passed out from the effects of the alcohol.

That night, he had a dream.

He dreamt of Wei Zhaoning's wounded expression, and she questioned him, "Didn't you say you wouldn't take a concubine? You promised my father and mother, have you forgotten everything now? I don't agree! I absolutely won't allow it! Unless we divorce, I will not allow Wei Jiaruo to enter the house!"

In the blink of an eye, he saw the look of disgust on his face when he looked at Wei Zhaoning. Then, he and Wei Jiaruo faked their deaths and eloped.

Wei Zhaoning was left alone, having lost her husband, to manage the vast Marquis's mansion.

Five years later, Wei Zhaoning returned openly with Wei Jiaruo, all alone. He coldly looked at Wei Zhaoning and said, "If you weren't so ruthless, why would I have had to hide for five years!"

Wei Zhaoning managed the Marquis's mansion very well. Lu Jieyue and the others all found good homes. Lu Ze was also very successful. As soon as he returned to the capital, he gained a higher status and wealth than before without having to work hard.

But Wei Zhaoning was too serious, she was too annoying. Lu Zhufeng could imagine that Wei Zhaoning would pester him for the cause and effect, and then refuse to let go, throwing a tantrum.

He was really fed up with her; he really didn't want to keep this woman, whom he was already tired of, by his side anymore.

At this time, his brothers and sisters also accused Wei Zhaoning, saying that Wei Zhaoning had ruined their lives. In fact, this was exactly what he wanted. Since everyone hated her, he had a legitimate reason to make Wei Zhaoning disappear.

More importantly, Wei Jiaruo cannot be a concubine; Wei Zhaoning must be killed so that Wei Jiaruo can rightfully become the mistress of the Marquis's mansion.

He had considered giving Wei Zhaoning a way out, even if it meant kicking her out of the Marquis's mansion. After all, she was all alone and no one could help her.

But he knew Wei Zhaoning too well. She was too vengeful. If he kept her alive, who knew what she might do? Even a cornered dog will jump over the wall.

Then, in the blink of an eye, he saw Wei Zhaoning's ferocious and wounded face in the firelight. He only glanced at it before quickly looking away.

Why didn't you agree in the first place?

Only when the woodshed was burned to ashes and the charred female corpse was carried out by the servants did his heart finally settle down.

Finally, no one is interfering with his happiness anymore.
