Jiang Jilian's face became increasingly gloomy. He had never thought that Ye Wanxue, who was once gentle and virtuous, would become so determined and cruel. He took a deep breath and tried to suppress the anger in his heart, but found that he could not do it at all.

"Ye Wanxue, are you threatening me?" Jiang Jilian's voice trembled slightly.

Ye Wanxue smiled slightly, but her smile was full of coldness: "Threat? No, Jiang Jilian, I am just reminding you not to forget what you have done. You think your concubines can bring you happiness, but you don't know that they will only make you fall into the abyss of pain."

Jiang Jilian's eyes flickered, he wanted to refute, but found that Ye Wanxue's words made sense. He couldn't help but feel a little panic in his heart, he was afraid that Ye Wanxue would really do something extreme to him.

"Ye Wanxue, I know I was wrong and I am willing to correct it." Jiang Jilian tried to ease the atmosphere. He knew that he couldn't confront her head-on at this time.

Ye Wanxue did not soften her attitude. She looked at Jiang Jilian coldly and said, "Correct? Do you think an apology can make up for your mistakes? Jiang Jilian, you are wrong. There is no regret medicine in this world."

Jiang Jilian's heart suddenly sank. He knew that Ye Wanxue's determination was not just a momentary anger. He clenched his fists, trying to find a way to ease the situation. However, Ye Wanxue's calm and firm eyes made him realize that this quarrel was not just a simple quarrel between husband and wife.

"Ye Wanxue, I know I was wrong, but I was really impulsive. I... I really didn't mean to hurt you." Jiang Jilian's voice was a little hoarse, and there was a hint of pleading in his eyes.

Ye Wanxue smiled coldly, turned around and walked to the window, looking at the falling leaves outside the window, with thousands of thoughts in her mind. She gently brushed away the gauze on the window frame, with a hint of sadness in her tone: "Impulsive? Jiang Jilian, do you think your momentary impulse only hurt me? No, you hurt the face of the entire family, you hurt the trust between us."

Jiang Jilian felt a pain in his heart. He knew Ye Wanxue was right. He slowly walked to Ye Wanxue and wanted to grab her hand, but Ye Wanxue gently avoided him. He looked at Ye Wanxue helplessly, feeling guilty.

"I know, and I am willing to bear all the consequences." Jiang Jilian said in a deep voice, trying to prove his determination with a firm tone.

Ye Wanxue turned her head, her eyes as cold as ice: "Bear the consequences? Jiang Jilian, do you think that one word of bearing the consequences can solve the problem? Do you think your impulsiveness was just a simple mistake? No, you are wrong. What you have done has created an insurmountable gap between us."

Jiang Jilian was silent for a moment. He knew that the pain in Ye Wanxue's heart would not heal overnight. He took a deep breath, trying to calm himself down, and then slowly said: "Ye Wanxue, I know I was wrong, and I am willing to spend the rest of my life to make up for my mistakes. I am willing to give up all my concubines, just ask you to forgive me."

Ye Wanxue looked at Jiang Jilian, with a complex emotion in her eyes. She knew that Jiang Jilian was speaking from the heart, but she also understood that forgiving him did not mean that everything could go back to the way it was before.

"Jiang Jilian, do you think your repentance can make up for everything? You are wrong. There are some things in this world that can never be undone. We are no longer the same as we used to be." There was a hint of helplessness in Ye Wanxue's voice.

Jiang Jilian's heart tightened. He knew what Ye Wanxue's words meant. He held Ye Wanxue's hand tightly and pleaded, "Ye Wanxue, I know I was wrong. I am willing to spend the rest of my life to make up for it. I am willing to give up everything, just ask you to give me a chance."

Ye Wanxue looked at Jiang Jilian, a trace of struggle flashed in her eyes. She knew that this marriage had exhausted her, but she also understood that divorce was not the only way to solve the problem. She took a deep breath and said slowly: "Jiang Jilian, I can give you a chance, but you must understand that this opportunity is not for you to make the same mistake again. From now on, you must strictly abide by my rules."

Jiang Jilian breathed a sigh of relief. He hugged Ye Wanxue tightly and said with great emotion: "Ye Wanxue, I will definitely cherish this opportunity. I will spend the rest of my life to make up for my mistakes."

Jiang Jilian's face turned even paler, and he realized that Ye Wanxue's words were not alarmist. He was full of contradictions. On the one hand, he knew that his betrayal of Ye Wanxue had deeply hurt her; on the other hand, he was unwilling to give up the pleasure that those concubines brought him.

"Ye Wanxue, what should I do to make up for my mistake?" There was a hint of helplessness and pleading in Jiang Jilian's voice.

Ye Wanxue sneered, her eyes firm: "If you want to make amends, you must first truly recognize your mistakes from the bottom of your heart. You must dismiss all those concubines without any attachment. And you must swear not to make the same mistake again in the future."

Jiang Jilian hesitated for a moment. He knew that this was Ye Wanxue's bottom line. He took a deep breath and finally made up his mind: "I promise you, from now on, I will never touch those concubines again, and I will never make the same mistake again."

Ye Wanxue looked at Jiang Jilian with a complicated look in her eyes. It was not easy for Jiang Jilian to change, but since he had made a promise, she was willing to give him a chance.

Lu Yundi has been secretly observing Jiang Jilian's actions. She knows that Ye Wanxue is still upset about Jiang Jilian's betrayal, and she also understands that she must play a good role in this struggle so that they will suffer a fate worse than death. In the silence of the dark night, Lu Yundi's eyes are like a pair of icy swords, staring closely at every subtle movement of Jiang Jilian. Her heart is filled with anger and determination, and she wants to make the betrayers taste the bitter fruit of betrayal.

Time flies, and in a blink of an eye it is the spring banquet at the palace. Lu Yundi knows that this is the best time to implement her plan. She deliberately wears a simple and elegant dress, which makes her look more elegant and refined, like a white lotus blooming in the mud.

At the banquet, dignitaries gathered and the sound of stringed instruments was heard everywhere. Lu Yundi sat quietly in a corner, but her eyes were as sharp as an eagle. She watched Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian chatting and laughing in the crowd, and her determination to take revenge became stronger.

At this moment, a maid came hurriedly over and whispered to Lu Yundi, "Miss, Ye Wanxue is having a secret meeting with Jiang Jilian in the pavilion in the back garden." A cunning light flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes, and she immediately stood up and walked towards the back garden.

In the pavilion in the back garden, Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian were sitting on a stone bench, talking in low voices. They thought no one was paying attention here, but they didn't know that Lu Yundi had appeared behind them like a ghost.

"What are you whispering about?" Lu Yundi's voice was cold and sarcastic.

Ye Wanxue and Jiang Jilian stood up suddenly and looked at Lu Yundi in panic. Jiang Jilian tried to explain: "Yundi, listen to my explanation..."
