Chapter 460 Shen Wantang, Let’s Divorce!
Princess Ning was so angry at him that she almost vomited blood!
She pointed at Xiao Qingyuan in anger and kept saying "you" for a long time without uttering a complete sentence.
She was just thankful at this moment, thankful that the Liu family didn't fancy Xiao Qingyuan at the beginning, otherwise if they really married him into the family, how could that be possible? !
Now, just because he was having sex with Liu Nanshi, he started speaking in favor of the entire Liu family!
If you don’t know, you might think his surname is Liu instead of Xiao!
Living together in the capital for so many years, how could she not know what kind of people Liu Ge Lao and Madam Liu were? That Liu Nanshi was not a good person either. She had once secretly tricked Xiao Qingxi and deliberately said bad things about her to isolate her from the noble ladies in the capital!
But in his son's mouth, Elder Liu became a good person, and Madam Liu who didn't give her face also became a good person! That Liu Nanshi couldn't be better!
So she is the only bad mother in the whole capital?
Oh, no, not only is she a bad person, but her daughter-in-law is also a bad person in her son's eyes.
Princess Ning didn't like Liu Nanshi in the first place, and now she hated her even more.
The last time Liu Nanshi came to the palace, she deliberately tried to sow discord. The gifts were clearly all with her, but she insisted that Shen Wantang had taken them all. As a result, her son and daughter mistakenly believed that Shen Wantang had coveted their things, and there was a lot of fuss for a while.
If such a thing is allowed to marry into the palace, there will be no peace in the palace!
Princess Ning took a deep breath and said in a cold voice: "Qingyuan, I'm going to make this clear today. I will not allow Liu Nanshi to enter the house!"
Xiao Qingyuan shouted at her, "Mother! Why do you always go against me? You won't let me marry the one I like!"
"Because there's nothing good about what you like!"
"Mother, this is prejudice! Nan Shi is good at everything. Everyone in the capital praises her. Even Gu Qianhan, who looks down on everyone, wants to marry her. The Duke's Mansion also wants her to be their daughter-in-law. Why doesn't mother like her?"
"Who said Gu Qianhan wanted to marry her?"
"Isn't it? Gu Qianhan is taking revenge on me because I ruined his marriage with Nan Shi! He likes Nan Shi to death!"
Princess Ning sneered, "Foolish! If Gu Qianhan really liked her that much, the two families would have settled the marriage long ago. Why wait until today?"
"The Duke's Mansion and the Liu Family are a perfect match, Liu Nanshi often goes to the Duke's Mansion, and Madam Liu often meets Madam Gu. Everything should be smooth sailing, but Gu Qianhan is already 21 years old this year, and Liu Nanshi is 18 years old, and the marriage is still not settled. This means there must be something wrong!"
"The more I think about it, the more I feel that Liu Nanshi is probably because Gu Qianhan knows her character and doesn't like her, so he came up with a trick to make the Liu family break off the marriage."
Xiao Qingyuan simply couldn't listen. He was angry and impatient: "Mother lives in her own world. What you said is all based on your imagination. There is no basis at all! I don't care whether Gu Qianhan likes Nan Shi or not. Anyway, I must marry Nan Shi this time. I have already promised her to make her my prince's consort. I can't go back on my word!"
Shen Wantang finally got a word in. She covered her face and cried, "Your Highness only cares about fulfilling the promise he made to Miss Liu, but doesn't care about my life or death. This is really too much! I love you so much, but you treat me like a worn-out shoe. Where is your conscience?"
Xiao Qingyuan opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
Shen Wantang was indeed innocent. He actually felt that she was tolerant enough. She had always loved him, but had been living a widow in the palace. She must have cried countless times behind his back.
But even when she was wronged, she never complained in front of him. Every time he went to her yard, she looked calm and showed no resentment. No other woman could do better than her.
Seeing that Xiao Qingyuan was speechless, Shen Wantang knew that he also felt that he was in the wrong, so she didn't want to force her any further.
She cried for a while, and after her mother-in-law felt extra sympathy for her, she got up and left.
On the way back, Du Juan's face was full of worry. She asked in a low voice: "Crown Princess, is the Crown Prince really going to divorce you this time? Don't you need to do something?"
Shen Wantang's expression had returned to calm. She said firmly, "He has no say. Don't worry."
"But the prince seems very determined to marry Miss Liu. What if the princess is persuaded by him?"
"That depends on whether I can gain the trust of my mother-in-law or the prince can gain the trust of his mother."
"Princess, I am going to say something presumptuous. You... you are an outsider after all. No matter how much the princess loves you, it is impossible for her to go beyond the prince. If the prince begs the princess every day, the princess may not be able to protect you all the time!"
Shen Wantang smiled faintly: "You all know that I am an outsider, how could I not know it myself?"
"Because I am an outsider, I have to be filial all the time. The prince is the biological son of the prince and princess, so he is unscrupulous, neither filial nor obedient, and always causing trouble."
"Everyone knows he is unreliable when he looks like this. The people he likes are also subjected to particularly strict scrutiny, and Liu Nanshi just can't stand any scrutiny."
"What's more, if something like this happened to the two of them, they would lose a lot of reputations, especially Liu Nanshi. She is a woman, so her situation will be even worse. This is a good time for the princess to control her. There is no way the princess would let her be the prince's consort."
Dujuan didn't know where her master's confidence came from, but she felt relieved to see her so calm.
The master and servant returned to Wutong Garden. Shen Wantang changed her clothes and washed her face. In order to be able to cry, she had applied some menthol on her hands. Now, she felt a burning sensation under her eyelids.
Just as she finished packing, Xiao Qingyuan arrived.
Shen Wantang was not surprised to see him, but unfortunately, she had just washed off the menthol, so it was a bit difficult for her to cry.
"Shen Wantang, let's...get a divorce!"
Xiao Qingyuan's voice seemed a little lacking in confidence: "This is good for everyone. I can marry the woman I like, and you can also escape the cage of the palace and find a man who truly loves you. What do you think?"
Shen Wantang looked at Xiao Qingyuan's face, her tone as mournful as it could be: "I won't divorce you, not even if I die! I will stay with you for the rest of my life. If you want to get rid of me, you have to die! Does the prince want me to die?"
"No, no, no, no, no!"
Xiao Qingyuan felt a little distressed, yet inexplicably happy. His Crown Prince's Consort was indeed deeply in love with him and didn't want to leave him at all.
His tone became gentle: "Shen Wantang, I am doing this for your own good. What's the point of you following me and living a life of widowhood? You are so young and beautiful, it would be a pity for you to die in the palace!"
