My husband faked his death so I could remarry, but I got involved with my crazy brother and can'

On the day Su Yingxue got married, her husband died.

The heir apparent of the Duke, who was also her husband's elder brother, inherited both his wife's and his concubine's families, and married her and his half-sister.

She unexpectedly learned from her half-sister that Xie Huaiyun had deliberately killed her husband in an attempt to take her for herself.

Su Yingxue was furious and hated her nominal husband to the core.

She fought him to the death with all her might, even using her entire dowry to help the crown prince ascend the throne.

Unexpectedly, her deceased husband suddenly returned.

"Fool! I merely used a little trick, and you gave up everything. You're just as stupid as your sister said!"

Su Yingxue was incredulous. She raised her hand and grasped the hem of her husband's robe: "Husband, you're not dead? Do you know how much I did for you...?"

"That was all your own choice!"

Xie Huaixuan kicked Su Yingxue aside: "You've blocked His Highness the Crown Prince's path. Your entire Su family is no longer worth keeping!"

As they spoke, about a hundred members of the Su family were hacked to death with swords and knives.

"No!"

Su Yingxue's eyes were bloodshot, but she was powerless to stop it.

Seeing his parents die in front of him, he was forced to cough up blood.

"Xie Huaixuan, you bastard!"

Facing the man she had once been infatuated with, Su Yingxue's eyes flashed with hatred for the first time.

"I'm an idiot? You only have yourself to blame for being stupid!"

"Yes, sister, you are so foolish. Your younger sister managed to sow discord in just a few words. It's truly laughable."

"Sister, rest in peace on your journey. Your parents are waiting for you on the road to the underworld."

As he spoke, Xie Huaixuan swept his longsword toward Su Yingxue.

Knowing there was no turning back, Su Yingxue finally shed tears of blood and slowly closed her eyes.

"stop!"

The long sword in front of her was swept away, a familiar voice came, and Su Yingxue was pulled into a strong embrace.

"Is it you?"

When Su Yingxue saw the man's face, which was covered in blood but still handsome, she was taken aback.

The man she had hated her whole life was actually protecting her?

"Brother, Su Yingxue's words imply treason. Are you going to disobey the imperial decree?" Xie Huaixuan's face darkened, his anger barely contained.

"Let her go, and I'll relinquish my military power." The man's expression was indifferent, as if it were just an ordinary thing.

"really?"

Xie Huaixuan's eyes lit up, and he looked at Xie Huaiyun with anticipation.

"Why...? We're enemies..."

Su Yingxue looked at the handsome man in front of her with a few strands of white hair in surprise. This was the first time she had looked at him closely. His eyes still shone with an imperceptible tenderness, but his words were devoid of warmth.

"Who said I'm your enemy? It's you who's always treated me like an enemy."

"I'm returning this life to you."

No sooner had he finished speaking than a horse galloped up, and Su Yingxue was thrown onto the carriage, which urged the horse to gallop.

His face looked in the direction she left with a relieved expression.

Xie Huaixuan took the long sword and plunged it fiercely into Xie Huaiyun's chest.

Xie Huaiyun knelt on the ground, blood slowly seeping from the corner of her lips, but her eyes were fixed on her.

It was as if it were saying, "Are you satisfied now that I'm dead?"

"Brother, now that you're dead, the entire Duke's mansion is finally mine!"

"I never would have guessed. You were so brilliant all your life, yet you were ruined by a woman."

"Don't worry, brother, I'll catch her no matter where she is, and send her to the underworld to join you!"

Xie Huaixuan dispatched troops to search for Su Yingxue.

Within three months, Su Yingxue was driven to the brink of despair.

But they unexpectedly stumbled upon Xie Huaiyun's lonely grave.

At that time, a strong wind blew, and lightning flashed and thunder roared.

But the wind brushing against my body felt like a comforting breeze.

She shakily raised her hand and stroked the stone tablet in front of her, tears streaming down her face.

"I'm sorry, if there is an afterlife, I will make it up to you."

Seeing the arrows hurtling towards her, Su Yingxue raised her sword and committed suicide first, falling in front of the grave.

Crimson blood stained the sunset.

Looking up again, the sky was clear and blue.

"Miss, are we really going to give the young master a hard time? Now that the second young master is dead, and the master has agreed to allow the Duke's mansion to inherit both branches of the family line, the bridal sedan chair is already at the door. Are we really not going in? Are we just going to leave the eldest young master waiting outside?"

A familiar sound rang out; it was the summer solstice.

Chunfen, standing to the side, said unhappily, "The eldest young master forced the second young master to his death just so he could force our young lady to marry him. Our young lady would never stoop to being with such a cold-blooded man who wouldn't even spare his own brothers."

Su Yingxue didn't speak, her gaze fixed on Chunfen's face.

In her past life, it was Chunfen's repeated provocations that led to her having such a terrible attitude towards Xie Huaiyun.

Later, she instigated Su Yingxue to take out her dowry, and Su Yingxue did so in order to avenge Xie Huaixuan, but ended up having her entire family slaughtered.

Xia Zhi died saving her, but Chun Fen was promoted to concubine by Xie Huaixuan because of her merits, enjoying immense prestige.

Even on his deathbed, he personally unleashed dogs to gnaw on her corpse.

She's probably already hooked up with Xie Huaixuan by now.

"Miss, that matter has not yet been verified. It is rumored that the young master is indeed a spoiled and tyrannical man who shows no respect to others. However, this matter was agreed upon by both families."

"If you enter the Duke's mansion, you'll be relying on the young master for your livelihood. Are you really going to be distracted by him? The young master is notoriously vengeful."

Xia Zhi still looked worried.

Yes, how could she forget that Xie Huaiyun is known for never suffering a loss?

No one who offends him will have a good ending.

But in her past life, she offended him repeatedly yet lived a good life.

This shows his affection for her.

Fortunately, she was reborn in this life.

This time, she will protect him well.

We will absolutely not let him be deceived by his half-sister and Xie Huaixuan again.

This would also prevent him from arousing the Crown Prince's suspicion.

He died without a complete corpse.

"Leave the residence."

Su Yingxue gave the order calmly, Xia Zhi's eyes lit up, while Chun Fen looked unwilling.

"Miss..." Chunfen wanted to say something more.

Su Yingxue said coldly, "If you dare to utter another word and miss the auspicious time, I can't protect you."

Spring Equinox shrank back and ultimately didn't speak again.

At the entrance of the Marquis's mansion, the wedding procession stretched from one end of the street to the other, decorated with lanterns and colorful streamers, and two bridal sedan chairs were placed at the entrance.

It was an extremely luxurious structure, covered with a yellow roof, spacious and bright, with intricate and exquisite patterns on the outside.

The other one, though not bad, looked dull and lackluster compared to the yellow-roofed wedding sedan chair, especially since it wasn't even a true red.

When Su Zhirou saw this, she thought that Xie Huaiyun was deliberately trying to intimidate Su Yingxue.

After all, everyone in the capital knows that Xie Huaiyun and Su Yingxue don't get along.

Now, with everyone watching, it's the perfect opportunity to teach Su Yingxue a lesson.

She instinctively headed towards the yellow-roofed sedan chair, but was stopped by Xie Huaiyun.

"etc!"

Su Zhirou thought Xie Huaiyun had more to say, and asked sweetly, "Does my husband have any more words to tell me?"

Upon hearing the word "husband," Xie Huaiyun's beautiful brows furrowed slightly as she pointed to the dimly lit sedan chair beside her.

"That one next to it is yours."

He was originally going to marry the legitimate daughter of a marquis, but for some reason the marriage certificate was mixed up, he still married her anyway.

But he wouldn't touch this woman; she could only serve as a foil for Su Yingxue.

Su Zhirou hadn't expected Xie Huaiyun to be so disrespectful, and her eyes instantly reddened: "Husband, but I married you! You are the Duke's heir, how can I ride in a sedan chair?"

If it weren't for the contrasting decorations, it would be fine. The magnificent building next to it makes the one next to it look like a concubine.

How could she, the wife of a prince, ride in such a small sedan chair?

Now that everyone is watching, if she compromises, how will she ever be able to hold her head high again?

"Disobedient?" Xie Huaiyun's voice was devoid of any warmth: "Then stay at your parents' home."
