Chapter 901 We Can't Beat Her
Xu Mingqian's public announcement:
Leng Man beat Ning Jiewei for no reason and had fun with many lovers. Xu Mingqian chose to forgive her countless times, but Leng Man just wouldn't change.
Xu Mingqian tolerated him in every way, but Leng Man provoked him again and again. What's more, she blatantly used drugs to abort Ning Jiewei's child. Her actions were outrageous.
After the medical diagnosis by Emperor Jin, it was confirmed that Xu Yingyuan and Xu Mingqian were not related. From this, it can be inferred that Leng Man had failed Xu Mingqian's affection for more than 20 years.
Xu Mingqian and Leng Man severed their relationship as husband and wife.
From now on, the mistress of the third room of the Xu family is Ning Jiewei.
……
Once this news came out, the rumors about Leng Man were confirmed without a doubt.
Leng Man's unfaithful behavior shocked the capital for a while.
Everyone despised Leng Man's behavior and felt deeply ashamed of it. Leng Man hid in the Leng Mansion, not daring to step out of the house, for fear that everyone would shout and beat her.
Leng Man was unwilling to accept this and announced to the public that Xu Yingyuan and her brother were not born to wild men, but were the daughters of the emperor and the prince.
Upon hearing this, Gu Mengzhen immediately distanced himself from the matter and issued a warning: If Leng Man dares to say another word of nonsense and tarnish my innocence, she will be executed without mercy.
Leng Man was a third-rank official, but was deposed by Gu Mengzhen.
From then on, Leng Man respectfully changed her address to Miss Leng; Xu Yingyuan and her siblings no longer needed to greet their mother.
Leng Mansion, where Leng Man lives, is like a jade residence.
Leng Man was annoyed.
"I am so unlucky. The first time I did such a bad thing, I was caught by the master on the spot."
"How come it's such a coincidence that he just happened to pass by?"
The question was difficult to answer, so Xu Yingyuan took a different approach and responded to her mother.
"My child said something extra, please don't blame me, mother."
"You can no longer call me Master. You should address me as Lord Xu."
The coldness felt like a lump in my throat.
"He and I……"
Ning Jiewei's plan has not yet been fully implemented. She said that her stepmother would never change her mind before she fell in love with someone else, so she must implement the plan completely without missing any key points.
Xu Yingyuan refused to believe it and insisted on persuading him.
"The Emperor is heartless and Mr. Xu is ungrateful. What is Mother going to do?"
Leng Man is stubborn.
"You can't just look at things superficially."
"Why doesn't the emperor recognize us? Why is Lord Xu so ungrateful? This is all Princess Yuexi's conspiracy!"
"They abandoned us, not voluntarily, but because they fell into a trap."
Xu Yingyuan was extremely worried.
"Why is mother so persistent?"
"Does it make sense for you to persist like this for those two unfaithful men?"
Leng Man insisted on having her own way.
"They are not ungrateful people."
"As long as the misunderstanding is cleared up, the emperor will recognize you, and Lord Xu will accept me again."
"Don't get caught up in this trap and let Princess Yuexi lead you by the nose. Her goal is to lead us to change our minds."
"She is treacherous and has no moral integrity. I will never compromise with such a person!"
Xu Yingyuan was heartbroken and wanted to cry but had no tears.
"Mother, why bother?"
"We can't beat her."
"If you don't surrender to King Dijin, will you surrender to King Li?"
"Prince Li's whereabouts are erratic, where can we find him?"
Leng Man looked infatuated.
"I will not vote for Prince Dijin, nor Prince Li. I am loyal to the emperor alone. Even if the seas run dry and the rocks crumble, I will not change my ambition."
Xu Yingyuan felt deeply frustrated as Ning Jiewei had predicted it again.
"But the Emperor has abandoned us."
"Even if my mother is loyal, what's the use?"
Leng Man is deeply in love and looks towards the direction of the imperial palace.
"Not urgent."
"My love is sincere and unwavering. One day, I will be able to move the emperor."
"Now, I can withdraw from the court, not fight with any party for the time being, and wait for the emperor to change his mind."
Xu Yingyuan has a hard time expressing her grievances.
"Mother……"
Leng Man looked angry.
"Stop talking nonsense."
"I've already told you that this is Princess Yuexi's plan. Don't you understand?"
"What good people can there be among King Dijin's subjects? We will surely perish if we enter this game!"
Seeing this, Xu Yingyuan had no choice but to continue implementing Ning Jiewei's plan.
That day, Leng Xie came to Siyu Residence.
Leng Man stood up and bowed.
"Please be blessed, father."
Leng Xiexu helped Yun sit down and talked softly to his daughter.
"What are your plans for the future?"
"Man'er, please don't forget that you are an unmarried girl. Marriage is a big deal and you should take it seriously."
"My wife and I will definitely leave this world before you; after Yuan'er and her brother start their own families, they will inevitably not be able to take care of you."
"As a father, I have no other wish in this life, except to find someone I can entrust my life to, to take care of you and love you."
"You stay at home all day long, all alone. Aren't you trying to make me die with regret?"
Leng Man stared at the emperor's portrait with a dull look in her eyes.
"I'm waiting for the emperor to marry me."
"He said he would marry me."
The humor is both funny and ridiculous.
"Is it amnesia?"
"Yesterday, the emperor's words were very clear."
"He said that it has nothing to do with you. Your two children are not princes or princesses."
Leng Man retorted.
"The emperor just said this in anger, how can father take it seriously?"
"After a while, he will calm down."
"Lord Xu is obsessed with Ning Jiewei. He has failed you and me. The emperor must be heartbroken."
"At this point, he will definitely fulfill his promise from last year and welcome me into the palace."
Leng Xie sighed deeply.
"Ugh."
"When the Leng clan was in power, he still perfunctorily accepted your affection and gave you to Lord Xu. Today, the Leng clan is no longer as powerful as it was before, and you have also fallen into disgrace, but he is willing to marry you?"
"Man'er, dream less."
Leng Man has his own logic.
"The Emperor knows very well that there are people who add icing on the cake, but there is no one who helps people in need. For the former, he did not marry me just to wait until this moment to give me a surprise."
"As my father said, I am ruined."
"Who is willing to marry me in this situation?"
"Am I happy to be alone?"
"Except waiting for the Emperor's pity, what other choice do I have?"
He shook his index finger coldly.
"That's a bad word."
He patiently analyzed the problem for her and found a solution.
"Your story is currently only circulated in the capital city. People in the surrounding suburbs and nearby counties are all unaware of it, let alone those in distant places."
"Go on a blind date before the rumors spread all over the world."
"With your noble family background, talent and appearance, it will be easy for you to recruit a son-in-law."
“This move has many benefits.”
"First, you'll have someone to accompany you for the rest of your life."
"Secondly, Bo'er has not yet finished his studies, and my good son-in-law can help you teach your son."
"Third, to calm the rumors in Shengjing and let people know that you are definitely not the evil woman that Lord Xu said you were, but a good wife and a loving mother. There are many people who appreciate your talent and charm. You have just divorced and you have the ability to remarry."
Leng Man added.
“Fourthly, the other women of the Leng clan will not be affected by me and will find it difficult to get married.”
"Yes and no?"
Leng Xie was silent and pondered.
"Uh...this..."
Leng Man's face showed anger.
"Father has something to say, why don't you just say it?"
"Is it because of my affairs that the people of my clan are resentful and angry?"
Cold and bitter, telling the truth.
"They do have some complaints."
"You know, some of your uncle Yi's cousins are looking for marriage partners, and some are about to get married. At this critical moment, how embarrassed are they if you do something like this?"
"Not only my family's side branches, but also your aunt's family, your uncle's family, and your uncle's family were also affected."
"Other people have prejudices against you. Your temper is inherited from your family, so they misunderstand that we are all bad people."
"We are a family, we depend on each other, how can you bear to hurt me?"
