Ever since Shen Wantang drove Liu Nanshi away in anger, the Ning Wang Mansion has been peaceful for several days.

I don't know if Xiao Qingyuan thought Shen Wantang was deeply in love with him and was deliberately avoiding her. He didn't appear in front of Shen Wantang for several days, and even when he went to Princess Ning's place, he had to avoid Shen Wantang at other times.

Xiao Qingxi finally realized that no matter how she made a fuss, Shen Wantang's position as the Crown Prince's Consort was stable. Prince Ning and Princess Ning both recognized this daughter-in-law. It was useless for her to say a lot of bad things, so she stopped. She put all her thoughts on Huo Yunzhou and sent people to Jixin Temple every day to inquire about Lin Rouxin's affairs.

Shen Wantang has had a rare period of leisure these days. Every day she practices calligraphy, drinks tea, or plays shuttlecock with the maids to exercise.

One day, she was pruning branches when Qin Xin hurried in and said, "Princess, General Huo is here. He brought the divorce letter to the princess!"

Shen Wantang paused: "Didn't the princess refuse to divorce him? Why did he insist on getting a divorce?"

"I just heard from outside that Lin Rouxin hanged herself in Jixin Temple!"

"What? Lin Rouxin is dead?"

"No, they said she still had a breath left and was revived by General Huo. General Huo was afraid that she would commit suicide again, so he refused to wait any longer and wanted to divorce the princess today."

Shen Wantang instantly thought of Chu Yanluo.

Chu Yanluo had performed this scene before, and the effect was very good at that time. Xiao Qingyuan was afraid of losing her, so he no longer pursued the past.

Lin Rouxin is better at manipulating people's hearts than Chu Yanluo, and Huo Yunzhou also feels particularly sorry for her.

As she was talking, Nanny Quan came in and said, "Princess, the princess asks you to go to Shaoguang Courtyard. The princess is feeling unwell. Please go and see her."

As soon as Shen Wantang heard it, she knew that Xiao Qingxi was probably very angry again and had a miscarriage.

Fortunately, she had a good health, otherwise she would have lost the child long ago.

Shen Wantang told Du Juan to take the silver needle and follow Nanny Quan to Shaoguangyuan.

As soon as he entered, he heard Xiao Qingxi yelling hysterically: "Huo Yunzhou, how dare you not want me and the child?! You want a divorce? Dream on! I will never help you and that bitch Lin Rouxin to be together!"

"You said she hanged herself, right? Well, let her die, why isn't she dead yet?!"

"Threatening you to marry her by committing suicide? Then there's no way I'll divorce you! I'm going to occupy your position as your legal wife for the rest of my life, and she'll have to be a concubine for the rest of her life!"

Huo Yunzhou looked at her with a pale face: "Qingxi, do you have to be so vicious? How could you let her die? Rouxin didn't want to implicate me or embarrass you, so she wanted to end her short life. She is really a kind woman."

Xiao Qingxi covered her stomach with one hand and screamed with her whole body shaking: "She is not kind! She is the most vicious person! Huo Yunzhou, you have been deceived by her hypocritical appearance!"

"She dares to snatch my man, Xiao Qingxi? Just wait for me, I will kill her!"

"I will make her die without a burial place, and I will make her infamous for a hundred years after her death!"

Huo Yunzhou watched her scream and go crazy quietly, then he knelt down.

Xiao Qingxi's curse words got stuck in her throat. She looked at Huo Yunzhou in disbelief: "What do you mean?! What are you going to do?!"

"I'm kneeling down for you, Qingxi, I beg you, please let Rouxin go, she's already pitiful enough, as long as you're willing to sign the divorce agreement, I'll agree to whatever you ask for."

"Then I want Lin Rouxin to die!"

"That won't work. I promised her father and brother that I would take care of her for the rest of her life. I won't let her die or get hurt. Please change your request."

Xiao Qingxi gritted his teeth and said, "She can't die, right? Well, then I want you to die!"

"Qingxi, you..."

Huo Yunzhou sighed: "Don't say such angry words. You know how unreasonable this request is, and you also know that I can't die. Let's find another one!"

"I won't change it, this is it!"

Huo Yunzhou looked at Princess Ning for help: "Please persuade Qingxi, Princess. I really have no other choice. Rouxin has no will to live now. You are always kind, so you don't want to see her life disappear like this, right?"

Princess Ning was originally trying to suppress her anger, fearing that if she said too much, she would add fuel to the fire and make her daughter angry again. Now, after hearing what Huo Yunzhou said, how could she suppress her anger?

She angrily scolded, "How shameless are you to ask me to persuade Qingxi on your side? I am kind? No matter how kind I am, I will not be kind to those who bully my daughter!"

"A man's knees are made of gold, but you actually kneeled down to her just for that thing, just to make Qingxi reconcile! You are deliberately putting Qingxi on the fire!"

"You clearly knew that she was pregnant with your child, and she treasured the child like a treasure! But you treated them both like trash. You are worse than pigs and dogs!"

"Get out of here right now! I feel sick just by looking at your face and hearing your voice!"

Princess Ning thought that if she scolded Huo Yunzhou harshly enough, she could drive him away.

But Huo Yunzhou knelt there motionless. He was determined to get a divorce today because Lin Rouxin would never come out of Jixin Temple until the divorce was settled.

Seeing that he refused to leave, Princess Ning stopped nagging and said directly, "Madame Quan, beat him out! Beat him hard!"

Nanny Quan picked up the board and hit Huo Yunzhou hard on the back with a "snap".

He groaned, but refused to move or lower his head. He looked straight at Xiao Qingxi: "If you really want me to die, then just beat me to death. I'm sorry, so I'll let you vent your anger."

Another blow of the board came down, and Huo Yunzhou's already pale face became even paler.

But he gritted his teeth and held on, kneeling straight.

After a few more blows, Huo Yunzhou was already sweating profusely, and his back was covered in blood.

Xiao Qingxi started to cry: "Huo Yunzhou, you are willing to be beaten like this for Lin Rouxin?! You have never done this for me! I hate you! I hate you so much!"

She was crying until she suddenly stopped crying and fell down limply.

Princess Ning was startled and shouted anxiously: "Tang'er, hurry up, come and take a look at her!"

Shen Wantang stepped forward, took Xiao Qingxi's pulse, and quickly gave him a few injections.

After clearing away the pent-up energy, Xiao Qingxi woke up slowly.

Princess Ning looked at Shen Wantang gratefully: "Tang'er, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I really don't know what I would do."

She was thanking him, but when Xiao Qingxi woke up and saw that it was Shen Wantang beside her, she immediately pushed Shen Wantang away: "Go away! You are a lowly thing born to a concubine, are you worthy of my treatment?! No concubine or daughter born to a concubine is a good thing!"
