The blackened marquis insists that the husband should be more valuable than the son!

Xue Mingyue will remember the encounter with the assassin in the autumn hunting camp for the rest of her life.

If she had not reacted quickly and ran fast enough, she would have died by the knife and become a ghost. Even though Ling Su was only a few steps away from her at that time, he still could not save her.

It is certainly better to save yourself than to wait for others to rescue you.

Since then, she never took off the dagger and hidden arrow, even when she was in Dingyuan Marquis Mansion.

After Xue Mingyue said this in a slightly proud tone, Xie Lang also remembered the dagger under her pillow on the bed. He couldn't help but pause and said with a strange look in his eyes: "That dagger..."

Hasn't he already put it away?

Xue Mingyue bent down, pulled out a dagger from her boots, raised her eyebrows and said, "I bought another one."

Don't think she doesn't know that the missing dagger under the pillow is definitely related to him. It's just that he has been very busy recently and she doesn't want to have another quarrel with him about this matter.

It doesn’t matter if it’s gone, she can just buy another one.

It was just a dagger. Even the small arrow in the sleeve was made by her, and it was made as small as possible so that she could control it better.

"..."

Xie Lang was slightly stunned, then moved his lips as he looked at her determined expression.

After a long while, he took a deep breath and said helplessly: "Mingyue, if possible, I will definitely take you with me... But, you want to help me contain the queen, but there must be a lot of people around the queen, and danger comes first."

"Besides, the Sixth Prince is being raised in the Queen's palace. Since you consider him a friend, it would be best if you don't run into him on this trip."

His mind raced.

Unexpectedly, he actually came up with a good excuse.

Xue Mingyue asked confidently, "On the surface, I am going to cooperate with the Queen, so what if I run into Xiao Yu?"

"Besides, I will only take action against the queen when I have no other choice, but even then I will not kill her."

She had no intention of harming the Queen.

If Xiao Yu thought she was a traitor because of this incident, then she had nothing to refute, but it was more likely that Xiao Yu would understand his and her actions after learning the whole story.

As for what’s next…

That wasn't something she should be thinking about right now.

Thinking of this, Xue Mingyue's eyes suddenly widened slightly, and she said in a daze: "You are right, Xiao Yu is a little devil. If you don't want him to do anything bad, you should control him in advance."

Otherwise, I'm afraid he would tell Emperor Jingping before knowing the whole story.

Xue Mingyue looked at Xie Lang steadily and said, "How about this? Lend me a few men and I will control both mother and son."

Xie Lang: "..."

Xie Lang had a complicated expression, angry and amused at the same time.

He was somewhat surprised at her decisiveness, but when he thought about the fact that she was also a butcher working in a downtown area, slaughtering pigs and cutting meat, it was not surprising at all.

Seeing that she was still so determined, Xie Lang began to waver.

If he really didn't bring her this time, he intuitively felt that this would be more serious than anything that had happened before, and he had no choice but to consider it carefully.

He couldn't help but ponder, recalling his arrangements this time.

Xue Mingyue, Xue Mingyue were staring at Xie Lang intently, their palms slightly sweating from nervousness. Even though she spoke so confidently, as if they could break into the palace if she were given a few men.

...In fact, she had no idea in her heart.

If this matter can be accomplished successfully, to put it nicely, Xie Lang will go to the palace to overturn the verdict of ten years ago, and His Majesty will write a confession and make it public to the world, and everyone will be happy; if this matter fails, to put it bluntly, they are committing treason.

Although this in itself can be called treason.

So no matter how confident Xue Mingyue was in Xie Lang and how much she trusted him, she couldn't control the worry that rose in her heart.

But, asking her to hide somewhere else and wait for him...

Xue Mingyue really didn't want to.

Perhaps the experience of hiding things from each other in their previous life still left a shadow on her, or perhaps it was because she had seen too many times in her dreams the back of Xie Lang planning to take risks alone. After talking it out, she didn't want to leave him alone anymore.

After a long time, Xie Lang finally spoke and looked up at her.

He raised his hand and rubbed her head, as if he had made a decision, and lowered his head and whispered, "Mingyue, you wait for me at home obediently."

Just as Xue Mingyue was about to say something, a finger was placed on her lips, stopping her from saying anything else.

"When I finish this matter, we will divorce as you thought before."

His voice was very soft, but it sounded like thunder to Xue Mingyue's ears.

Her eyes suddenly widened.

"This divorce is only temporary. Our marriage was prompted by an accident that happened at that time. I also promised you that I would make the whole story public to clear your name. I also took the opportunity to deal with Bai Zhenzhen."

Xie Lang paused when he said this.

He laughed very softly: "Then, I will come to ask Grandpa to marry you in person, and I will marry you in an upright manner."

He held Xue Mingyue's hand, pursed his lips, and said seriously: "So, Mingyue, can you wait for me at home? I will definitely come back to find you, I swear to you."

Xue Mingyue's heart was in turmoil because of his words.

After hearing his last words, she breathed a sigh of relief subconsciously, but she couldn't help but feel a little anxious: "There is no room for negotiation on this matter."

She would never just sit there and wait for him.

Besides, she wasn't going to hold him back. There were clearly many things she could do, Xue Mingyue complained quietly in her heart.

After that, she added after a while: "But since you've said it, let's get divorced after this matter is settled."

She deliberately emphasized the word "divorce".

Isn't it just being his wife of Marquis Dingyuan? She has been doing it for so many years that she is almost tired of it.

Xie Lang obviously didn't expect that she would selectively listen to only part of what he said and pretend not to hear the rest.

Xie Lang gave a wry smile.

Seeing her fearless appearance, and remembering that she had the confidence to say these words, and that the confidence came from him, he couldn't help but sigh with a headache: "Is there really no room for change?"

"No."

Xue Mingyue shook her head decisively.

In fact, it was not a difficult task to restrain Queen Lu. Xie Lang had already thought about what to do before. But if he put Xue Mingyue in that position, he couldn't help but worry.

The guards in the palace have always been loose on the outside but tight on the inside.

Outside, a small group of Royal Guards were on duty, while inside, the Imperial Guards were patrolling.

Xie Lang was silent, thought for a moment, then nodded and said, "Okay."

"Since you have volunteered, I will leave this matter to you. Although you are my wife, you still need to coordinate manpower for this trip."

He took off his token from his waist and handed it over.

Xue Mingyue's eyes suddenly lit up.

"Captain Xue, are you confident that you can handle this?"
