Ning Shu was slapped again.
Then, she sat in the pile of dowry and sulked. Half of her face was as beautiful as snow jade while the other half had a bright red palm print on it. It complemented her fiery red wedding dress, making for a spectacular sight.
Behind her sedan chair, the most scholarly young master of the imperial censor in the capital was crying while coughing blood.
"Sister Shu, I, Cloud Leaf, will marry no one but you. Even if I die from coughing blood, I am willing …"
He chased for a hundred steps and shouted, "Sister Shu!" He spat out a mouthful of blood and fell to the ground, unconscious.
The maidservant Forsythia looked behind the sedan chair and said softly, "Miss, miss! Young Master Yun vomited blood and fainted again! Do you want to … stop and take a look? After all, you are husband and wife for a joss stick's time … "
Ning Shu did not care about her manners and rolled her eyes.
Take a look? Take a look my ass! One had to know that the wife of the imperial censor came from a family of generals. If she dared to stop and curse Young Master Yun to death, it would not be as simple as a slap. She would be skinned alive!
Thinking of this, she became even angrier.
King Chujiang, oh King Chujiang, is this the unattainable honor that you promised me? This lady thanks the entire netherworld!
On the Vermilion Bird Avenue, hundreds of people gathered by the roadside to watch.
"How many is this?"
"This is the third one."
"This Ning Family's Eldest Young Miss' husband curse has reached another level!"
"Isn't that so? The first husband lasted for half a year before dying, the second one did not even last a month. This one is even more impressive. Just as they were about to go through the wedding ceremony, the fine young master of the imperial censor suddenly vomited blood. The wife of the imperial censor immediately broke off the engagement and asked Lady Ning to pack her dowry and scram."
"Impressive, impressive! She is indeed the Great Yue's number one wife curse general. We should ask His Majesty to send her to the frontline. I guarantee that in less than half a year, the enemy's army of a hundred thousand will be dead. Hahaha … "
Listening to the discussions outside the sedan chair, Ning Shu's face darkened, especially the half of her face that was covered by the slap.
When she stepped into the River of Forgetfulness, she never would have thought that King Chu Jiang would act on his own initiative and actually arrange for her to return to her first life!
In that life, she was born in Duke Ning. Her mother was Princess Hexin, who was conferred the title of Princess Hexin by the late Emperor. Before she was ten years old, she enjoyed the love of her parents. She was the most precious pearl in the family. When she was ten years old, a crazy Taoist performed a divination outside her family. He said that her fate was hard to come by in the world. Before she was seventeen years old, she had to marry the most noble person in the world. Otherwise, not only would she die, but she would also die. Even the aristocratic families she was close to would not be spared.
They only thought that the Daoist was spouting nonsense and no one took him seriously. Unexpectedly, when she was seventeen, her father was suddenly framed for treason and sentenced to the execution of his entire family. She had personally witnessed her parents being beheaded right in front of her eyes.
Fortunately, the Sixth Prince, Xiao Yunyi, had arrived in time to clear her family's name and save her grandmother and siblings. She remembered that it was that day when that thin but handsome youth gently wiped away the tears on her face and said softly, "Shu 'er, I know that you must be very sad in your heart. But don't be afraid, Yan-gege will be your home in the future. "
Then, she was completely bewitched by him and walked onto the path of eternal damnation …
In this life, she did not know what that King Chu Jiang did to make her return to the age of marriageable age. Unwilling to get on Xiao Yunyi's pirate ship and unwilling to drag the entire family down with her, Ning Shu gritted her teeth and made a prompt decision to ask her father for permission. She said that no matter which family's young master was willing to marry her, even if he was crippled and retarded, she would marry him!
Lord Ning had doted on this pearl since childhood and would not casually marry anyone. The first time, he chose the eldest son of the country's Great General's family. Everyone said that the eldest son was handsome and skilled in both civil and military matters. At the age of fifteen, he had followed his father to war and had achieved many military achievements. The two families discussed and decided to get engaged first, and when the eldest son returned, they would immediately get married. Who would have thought that half a year later, the eldest son would die on the battlefield without leaving behind a corpse. From then on, her reputation of jinxing her husband began to spread.
The second time, her father took a fancy to the youngest son of Lu Bohou's family. Although the youngest son was not the legitimate son of the eldest son, he was a famous and elegant young master in the capital. Even the Grand Tutor had said that he was the son of Lu Bohou. However, the House of Marquis had long heard of her rumors and was hesitant to agree. Lord Ning specially went to the House of Marquis to make a request and promised five hundred sets of dowry. He also asked the Empress Dowager to act as the matchmaker before the House of Marquis finally agreed. However, for some reason, before the wedding ceremony, the youngest son suddenly fell seriously ill and passed away after a month of illness.
The news of her jinxing her husband was confirmed. No matter how her father begged, no aristocratic family was willing to marry her.
Until she turned sixteen this year.
Madam Ning was afraid that her worry would harm her health, so she ordered her to go to Peach Blossom Mountain to enjoy the flowers and relax. Who would have thought that she would coincidentally meet Young Master Yun from the House of Censors? Young Master Yun was infatuated the moment he saw her and swore to marry her. How could the House of Censors allow their son to die? However, Young Master Yun was stubborn. He went on hunger strikes several times to commit suicide, forcing her parents to nod with tears in their eyes. Then … the whole capital knew about it. In less than the time it takes to burn a stick of incense, she was slapped and sent home.
She also had a new title: Great Yue's First Jinxing Female General!
Duke Ning and Duke Ning's wife saw the bridal sedan being lifted back and their eyes reddened. They turned around and secretly wiped their tears. Ning Shu chewed that King Chujiang ten thousand times in her heart.
After sorting out her emotions, she smiled and comforted her parents softly, "Father, mother, if you don't want to marry, then don't marry. From now on, Shu 'er will serve you wholeheartedly. There will be less worries."
Ning Deyuan glared, "How can you not marry! Shu 'er, don't worry. With father here, I will definitely find you a good husband in this life! "
Her mother and Princess Xin wiped their tears and said hesitantly, "Why don't mother go and beg the Empress Dowager again? The most noble people in this world are not just the civil and military Lord Fortune Star. No matter how noble they are, they can't be more noble than the imperial family …"
Ning Shu's head immediately became as big as a bull, "Mother! Daughter said that I would rather commit suicide at the age of seventeen than marry into the imperial family in this life! "
As soon as she finished speaking, she heard a servant report, "His Highness the Sixth Prince has arrived –"
Ning Shu felt like her back was on pins and needles. She immediately turned around to leave, but she was stopped by someone. The figure wearing a moon-white robe with golden threads blocked her way with a face full of anger.
"Why would you commit suicide rather than marry this prince?!"
The young man's face was thin and handsome, with the unique arrogance of an imperial family. Even if he was angry, half of the women in the capital fell in love with him. Not to mention, at this moment, there was indeed deep affection in his eyes.
Unable to avoid this god of plague, Ning Shu patiently smiled, "His Highness the Sixth Prince, don't worry. Wait another two years. At this time two years later, you will accidentally roll off a cliff during the spring hunt and be attacked by an assassin. A beautiful woman called Fei Luan will save you and she almost lost her life for you. From then on, you two will fall in love with each other and live together as a couple, living together like an immortal couple. "
In that life, he used her as a shield for this singer called Fei Luan. It was only until she used up all the power of the Duke's family to help him ascend the throne that he slowly opened his mouth to bring Fei Luan into the palace and made her the Empress, while she was demoted to a palace maid. Her brother, Ji 'er, couldn't stand it anymore and impulsively killed Fei Luan. Xiao Yunyi was furious, and from then on, they completely broke off their relationship and became enemies.
When Fei Luan's name was mentioned again, she didn't think that she would be so calm. It was as if the strong love and hatred in that life, those bone-deep injuries, had all disappeared unknowingly.
She knew that King Chujiang's intention was to make up for it, but after three hundred years, seven lives of suffering, how could she pretend that those things didn't happen and continue to be on the same level as Xiao Yunyi? The best ending for them was for him to walk his path and she to walk her own path, without entanglement in this life.
She was trying to persuade him, but Xiao Yunyi's expression became uglier, "Shu 'er, you don't have to talk nonsense to make me back down!"
The young Prince's heart was higher than the sky, how could he stand being rejected again and again? He clenched his fists, his veins popping, and fiercely said to Ning Shu, "Whether you're willing to marry or not, I'll go ask Father to give an edict now, the wedding will be in a month! I said before, you can only marry me as a concubine in this life! Others are delusional! Don't even think about it! "
After that, he flicked his sleeves and left.
Ning Shu's head was about to explode. Aiyaya, how could this damn child be so stupid! As the future Emperor, he had the temper of a child who didn't follow his wishes, this Great Yue was doomed!
