Hearing Jing De's words, Wanyan Lie's lips curled into a cruel smile, "That's good! This Emperor wants to carve out the flesh at the tip of his heart and make him wish he was dead! Hahahaha! "
At night, Su Mei and Su Yue retreated, leaving Murong Qiqi and Feng Cang alone to make their vows.
In the room, the fragrance of lilacs filled the air. Murong Qiqi was nestled in Feng Cang's embrace, her fingers twirling around Feng Cang's hair. She lazily squinted her eyes like a lazy cat.
"The first time, I suddenly acted up that night, and the other party was scared to death …"
"The second time, the other party accidentally saw my purple eyes and screamed, and was killed by Ruyi …"
"The third time, the other party heard of my bad reputation and wanted to escape, but fell from the wall and broke her neck …"
"The fourth time, before the wedding sedan arrived, she slit her wrist …"
"The fifth person came in and tried to seduce me. She lit incense in the room, and I killed her …"
"The sixth person suddenly died, poisoned …"
"The seventh person lost her virginity before marriage, and committed suicide …"
"The eighth person heard my footsteps, and was frightened, and died …"
Listening to Feng Cang's clear account of his past, Murong Qiqi flipped over and sat in Feng Cang's embrace, "Your Highness, you have a lot of peach blossoms! This doesn't seem fair! This is my first marriage, and you've married so many times. Just thinking about it makes me feel indignant! Why don't I marry eight times as well, and we'll be even? "
"You dare!" Feng Cang's hand grabbed Murong Qiqi's slender waist, "You're mine! You'll carry my surname for the rest of your life, and no one else will dare to marry you except me! "
"Why?" Murong Qiqi raised her brows, pretending to be confused.
"Because if anyone wants to lay a finger on my woman, they'll have to ask my sword first!"
Feng Cang's domineering declaration made Murong Qiqi exceptionally happy. She liked Feng Cang's domineering manner. His words revealed a strong sense of possessiveness and jealousy, which made her like it.
"Tsk tsk, Your Highness, this isn't right! You've married so many women before, and I'm not even jealous. Instead, you feel wronged! " Murong Qiqi pouted. Although she was moved by Feng Cang's domineering words, she was still a little unhappy. "When I think about how you almost became another woman's man and had children with someone else, I feel very aggrieved."
Feng Cang could understand Murong Qiqi's jealousy. He pulled Murong Qiqi in front of him and kissed her forehead. "Qingqing, if I told you that I didn't know what love was before I met you, and that women were just tools for me to carry on the family line, would you be angry?"
"After my parents passed away, my grandmother was the only one who truly loved me. The Feng Clan has few descendants, and I'm the only one in my generation. She's worried about the Feng Clan's bloodline, so she arranged a marriage for me in the name of benevolence every single time, but she never succeeded, and it instead caused her to be even more worried and anxious. In the end, the current situation occurred … "
"Then don't you know how to refuse?" Murong Qiqi was still angry. Although those people had already become history, they were still somehow related to Feng Cang. This made her feel a little jealous, as she wanted to be the only one in the world.
"Qingqing, if I refuse, someone else will be unhappy!"
At this moment, Feng Cang's smile was unfathomable. It was full of playfulness, but there was a hint of coldness in it. Hearing Feng Cang's voice, Murong Qiqi felt that something was amiss. Could there be something fishy going on?
"During my first wedding, the parasite suddenly acted up on the wedding night, and it wasn't the fifteenth. After that, as long as the bride entered the manor and went through the ceremony, the parasite would act up that night. As for those women, whether they were poisoned, committed suicide, or lost their virginity, they all revealed traces of someone's actions … "
"You're saying that someone killed them and made it look like an accident? Someone is purposely trying to slander your reputation? "Murong Qiqi's brows furrowed as realization dawned on her." Who is it? Why would they do that? Do you have a blood feud with the culprit? "
Feng Cang smiled but did not answer. His eyes behind his thick eyelashes were cold, and his hand was gently combing through Murong Qiqi's hair. "Two days ago, when I entered the palace, the Emperor let me have some snacks and tea. When I left the imperial study, I vomited into my handkerchief. When I returned, Jin Mo took a look and said that the snacks and tea had a catalyst to trigger the parasite …"
"It was Wanyan Lie?"
This result was truly shocking to Murong Qiqi. Why? Why was it like this? Didn't Wanyan Lie dote on Feng Cang the most? For their wedding, Wanyan Lie's gifts were sent to the Southern Lin Palace every day, and he almost brought all the treasures from the palace. Could it be that everything was fake?
"From the fourth time, when the bride slit her wrists in the sedan chair, I could tell that something was wrong. That woman did not commit suicide, but was murdered! It wasn't until the seventh time, when the bride committed suicide after losing her virginity, that I confirmed that the mastermind was Wanyan Lie. "
"Isn't he your uncle? Why would he do this to you? Could it be that the rumors are all fake? That the North Zhou Emperor dotes on the Southern Lin Prince? "
This result was simply too inconceivable. If what Feng Cang said was the truth, then the truth was too cruel! How could a person be so hypocritical? On one side, he was a kind and respectable elder, but on the other side, he schemed behind the scenes and used countless ruthless methods?
"Because I've been investigating what happened at Mount Yandang fifteen years ago. Everyone said that Feng Xie was defeated by Murong Tai. Ha, how could Murong Tai compare to someone like my father? "
As he spoke, Feng Cang looked at Murong Qiqi apologetically. Because it did not seem right to talk about Murong Tai like this. After all, Murong Tai was his father-in-law.
"Speak, it's fine!" Ever since Li Qiushui told her that she was not Murong Tai's daughter, Murong Qiqi heaved a sigh of relief. She could not accept that such a cold and unkind person was her father.
"At that time, my father already had victory in his hands. With my father's military tactics, not to mention one Murong Tai, even ten of him would not be able to compare to my father — —"
"Your Highness, you mean that the Great General of Mount Yandang was defeated not because of Murong Tai's ability, but because of his own people?"
