Transmigrating into a female supporting role in a book

No matter what Situ Jue thought about taking a concubine, it had already been put on the agenda.

Xi Que finally changed her previous sullen expression these days, started trying on wedding clothes, and regained her previous lively and cheerful tone when talking to people around her.

I specially prepared a set of valuable gold jewelry for her as a dowry, and there was a silver note at the bottom of the box, which was considered to be the fulfillment of the master-servant relationship for more than ten years. Xi Que held the dowry box I gave her and finally confessed to me with tears in her eyes that she had slandered me before because she was blinded by greed.

Those words were mentioned by Zhao Ma Ma in front of her without my knowledge. Zhao Ma Ma said that I was unlucky in marriage and disrespectful to my father. A fortune teller also said that I had few relatives and so on. She was young at that time and didn't understand much, so she just wrote down these words.

After Nanny Zhao got into trouble, she came to me to plead for mercy, and she also said that I didn't really want the prince to take her as a concubine, and was just trying to fool her. In short, it was all my words of provocation that made her confused for a moment, so she contradicted me.

If I were as madly in love with Situ Jue as I originally was, I would probably do as Nanny Zhao said and not sincerely hope that Situ Jue would take a concubine.

Who would be happy to see the one they love hugging another person?

But I am not the original person, and I don’t have that kind of filter for Situ Jue. Sometimes I even find him annoying. Whether he takes a concubine or divorces his wife, I support it with both hands.

The ceremony of Xi Que officially carrying the concubine was approaching, and the date was chosen by the concubine herself.

Xi Que is an orphan. She was sold to the Shen Mansion as a slave by a trafficker when she was young. I specially discussed with my uncle and aunt to let her marry out of the Shen Mansion. After all, the original body grew up with her. Although we were master and servant, we also had a sisterly relationship.

On the eve of the ceremony, Xi Que was sent back to the Shen Mansion, and the next morning the wedding procession from the palace would pick her up from the Shen Mansion.

Although it was just a concubine, the palace also held a wedding banquet. It was not large in scale and not many people were invited. It was more like a family banquet.

When the guests left, the drunk Situ Jue was sent to the Wisteria Courtyard where Xi Que was housed. After sending the concubine back, I returned to Suxin Pavilion.

It is really tiring to organize a banquet personally. I was standing most of the time, and now that I sit down, I don’t want to stand anymore.

After Xueyan brought me hot water for soaking my feet, I leaned back in my chair, sighing comfortably, not wanting to move at all.

This time, my fatigue was greatly relieved. I closed my eyes and thought that I was just taking a short nap, and then I fell asleep. Suddenly, I heard a cold shout and a gust of cold wind blew towards me, completely waking me up from my half-sleep state.

It turned out to be Nanny Zhao who was rushing towards me with a ferocious face, holding a sharp blade in her hand, stabbing straight at me.

When she was about to stab my face with the knife in her hand, I couldn't react at all. My body froze in place and time seemed to slow down. My eyes could clearly see her every move, and my mind began to recall the past in a flash.

It turns out that Shen Xingye's inevitable death is either from illness or being killed by someone...

Is this how it ends for me?

Suddenly, Zhao Ma's body tilted and she fell to the ground like a clay doll. She fell heavily and was unable to get up for a long time.

A figure appeared in front of me, stepped forward and kicked the knife in Zhao Ma's hand away. The crisp sound made me react.

When I looked up to see who the brave man who saved me was, his figure flashed, he pushed open the rear window and jumped out.

The movements were so fast that I didn't see his face at all, but the sturdy figure looked very familiar to me, and I subconsciously curled my lips and smiled.

"What's wrong? What happened?" After hearing the noise, Xueyan ran over from the small kitchen on the other side of the yard.

I quickly put away my expression and jumped out of the foot bath barefoot, "Go call the guards! Aunt Zhao is crazy!"

It's the middle of the night and I can't rest.

I clearly instructed only to call the guards and the housekeeper, but I don't know who notified Situ Jue, but he also came running over, still wearing a wedding dress. He looked much sober, and not at all drunken as before.

"I'm fine, you should go back quickly, the magpie is still waiting for you." I urged from the side.

Situ Jue looked gloomy as he watched Doctor Sun examine Madam Zhao, completely ignoring me. "How is it?"

"He just fainted, nothing serious. Do you need to wake him up?"

"No need." Situ Jue turned around and ordered the servants, "Take the man away, lock him up, and interrogate him tomorrow morning."

He asked Doctor Sun to check me too, and I quickly waved my hands and said, "I told you I'm fine. I'm really fine."

Doctor Sun looked me over and said, "It looks like the princess is indeed not injured. Fortunately, the people around her reacted quickly and acted quickly."

I quickly pointed at Xueyan who was still waiting nearby, "Yes, Xueyan has learned some boxing skills before, and she is quite skilled. If she hadn't appeared in time, I wouldn't have been able to react."

Although Xueyan had never asked me questions before, she was very smart and immediately took up the topic, "It's all my job."

"Reward, a huge reward!" Situ Jue said.

After tossing and turning for a long time, I started to feel a little sleepy and yawned repeatedly. Finally, the big Buddha Situ Jue moved.

Before leaving, he told me not to sleep too deeply, and asked Xueyan to take good care of me at night. The guards in the mansion also specially dispatched two teams to patrol back and forth near my yard, for fear that Nanny Zhao and her accomplices were lurking around me, waiting for an opportunity to take revenge.

I was pretending to be sleepy at the moment. I was actually very excited and wanted to see the person who saved me even more.

Looking back on the process, it is still a bit scary. Aunt Zhao seemed like a different person. Although she appeared in front of me like a god and saved my life, people of this era should not have the superpower of teleportation, so I had no idea when she was in my room.

When you think about these details, they are still somewhat scary, but it’s a kind of exciting horror.

I want to see him, but not with any dislike.

"Xueyan, go back to sleep. I'm fine here." I confirmed again and again before sending Xueyan out.

When I walked to the window where he left, I pushed it open, wanting to see what route he had taken, but I saw a figure on the roof.

"Are you here again, or have you never left?" I asked softly, lowering my voice.

He leapt lightly and landed at the window. Because of the difference in terrain, I was now almost as tall as him and could look him straight in the eye.

"What are you laughing at? Aren't you afraid that I'm another assassin?"

Am I smiling? I subconsciously touched my cheek. Although I couldn't see my expression, my cheek felt slightly hot. Is this the suspension bridge effect again?

"Are you an assassin?" I asked him.
