Chapter 372 The Wife Given Away by Her Husband 10 (Reward and Extra 1)

"You two father and daughter should talk properly. I will go back to the main courtyard first."

Ning Yan felt that her avoidance was the most correct approach at this time.

However, some people were unwilling to do so. "I'm talking about you. Where are you going? You just entered the mansion and you want to drive my aunt away. What on earth are you thinking?!"

The smile on Ning Yan's face also disappeared. She looked at King Yue, who patted her soothingly and said, "She has been taught badly by others. Don't bother with her."

The unruly little princess was unwilling to give up. Seeing that Ning Yan was really about to leave, she wanted to reach out to pull her away, but her hand was slapped away by her father!
"How dare you! She is your father's wife, how can you yell at her!

Madam, please go back first, I will have lunch with you later."

Ning Yan nodded, "Let's talk it over nicely. The child is still young, don't lose your temper. I'm leaving first."

Pang Xuan'er is the only child of King Yue, so she is inevitably spoiled. It is normal for her to dislike her stepmother.

She just hopes that everyone can live in peace and live their own lives.

After all, the King of Yue had a daughter and she also had a son, and just like in remarried families today, there would always be problems of one kind or another.

Fortunately, the original owner's son was a good person. He knew how to be close to his biological mother and did not stay away from her just because she was divorced.

This also saved her a lot of worry.

However, the little princess was very repulsed by her when she met her for the first time, which shows that Mrs. Qu played an indispensable role.

……

In the study, Pang Xuan'er was very angry, "Aunt is right, Daddy won't care about his biological daughter anymore now that he has a new lover. Will the entire Yue Palace be handed over to her son in the future?"

It was a fact tacitly acknowledged by everyone that the King of Yue could no longer have his own offspring, and Pang Xuan'er could say it as easily as she wanted.

But she didn't know that these words were undoubtedly a stab in her father's heart.

How can a man, especially a powerful man standing at the top of power, feel good if he has no descendants to continue his family line?
"You're arguing with me just because of a few provocative words from your aunt?"

"What did Aunt say wrong?"

"She's wrong in every way! This palace belongs to my father and to you as well. You took her in just because she's your relative, and you're making a fuss about not being able to leave her.

Her existence is just to accompany you, not to control everything in the Prince of Yue’s Mansion!
Who this prince marries and who he spends his life with is none of her business.

Also, don't tell me you don't know Xiang Zizi's little thoughts."

"So what if you know? It doesn't matter who your father marries. My aunt is good in every way, why can't your father marry her? Instead, why does he only like that mere merchant girl?"

"Whether she is good or not is none of my business, because I don't like her.

Or do you think that I should sacrifice myself to marry someone I don't like just for your sake? "

Pang Xuan'er said as a matter of course: "Why not? Didn't my father dislike those concubines in the backyard, but he still married them?"

"So, you want me to take Xiang Zizi in and then leave her in the backyard and ignore her?"

Pang Xuan'er pouted, "Then let's not do that. Wouldn't that harm my aunt?"

The study suddenly became quiet.

The King of Yue didn't know whether to cry or laugh. He said that she didn't care about his father's life or death, but he didn't force her to favor Xiang Zizi.

She said that she had him as her father in her heart, but she only cared about doing so and it would hurt her aunt. Wouldn't he as her father be hurt? It was his fault. He thought that with Xiang Zizi by his side, she would grow up well. He had been fighting for many years and had too little time with his daughter, so his daughter was raised astray by that woman.

"Father, are you really not interested in my aunt? Can't you cultivate some feelings for her?"

The King of Yue was really speechless because of the child, "If your father asked you to marry your cousin, would you be willing?"

Pang Xuan'er shook her head. "No, he's not worthy of me."

"Once you get married, you can develop feelings for each other."

"How can I cultivate a relationship with him if I don't even like him? The thought of marrying him gives me a headache!"

The King of Yue laughed angrily: "Don't you understand this very well?"

Pang Xuan'er stopped talking again.

"Your aunt said today when I went to the palace that she was going to hold a banquet in a few days and would like to invite young men and women of appropriate age to attend. If you see someone suitable, tell your aunt and make a decision as soon as possible, so that the outstanding men won't be snatched away by others.

I heard that the Seventh Princess and the Eighth Princess are also looking for a consort this time."

Pang Xuan'er immediately stopped worrying about her aunt's affairs. "My daughter will definitely choose carefully to prevent that woman from interfering in my marriage. Fortunately, I still have my aunt.
Father, please don't send my aunt back for the time being. I want my aunt to help me with this."

Upon hearing this, the King of Yue's expression, which had just started to look better, turned ugly again, but Pang Xuan'er noticed nothing.

……

The King of Yue returned to the main courtyard and ordered all the concubines in the backyard to come to the mistress' courtyard.

In addition to the old people who had followed the King of Yue for a long time, there were also those who were bestowed by the emperor in recent years. He had slept with all of them before, but unfortunately, after no one could give birth to his children, he stopped going into the backyard. Those who came into the palace later were all virgins.

The old people are all very self-aware that the prince has never had them in his heart. Now they are just trying to make a living in the mansion, so they naturally will not provoke the princess.

The newcomers' minds became active. Since the prince was willing to sleep with an old woman, it would be their turn sooner or later.

So, they all dressed up beautifully, hoping to seduce the King of Yue.

As a result, before tea was even served, the King of Yue said, "You were all given to me by my brother, and I have never touched you.

If you want to leave the palace, I will give you a divorce letter plus one thousand taels of silver, and I will also set you up as a female household. If you don't want a female household, I will give you another one thousand taels of silver."

We are all very ambitious people, how could we agree to just take 1,200 taels of silver and leave?
Not to mention that it would be difficult for a woman to gain a foothold even if she was established as a female household. The identity of a concubine of the King of Yue alone could bring too many benefits to the family.

However, there are also people who know the current situation. "Your Majesty, there is no one at home anymore. I want to live in Jiangnan. Can your Majesty help me arrange something?"

"Yes, I will send someone to take you to Jiangnan and buy you a house. You can also take all your maids with you. I will give you three thousand taels of silver."

Three thousand taels is not enough for an ordinary person to spend in his lifetime.

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your kindness."

The person who was speaking was a maid in the palace. She had a fiancé before she entered the palace. She originally wanted to wait until she was older and ask her master for mercy to leave the palace. Unexpectedly, she was assigned by the emperor to be sent to the Prince of Yue's Mansion. She had heard that her fiancé had already remarried, so she simply did not return to her hometown and went directly to Jiangnan.

She was a good embroidery woman, and the money given by the prince was enough to support herself.

If you meet the right person there, you can marry again and live a normal pastoral life.

The King of Yue glanced at the remaining women, "No one else wants to leave?"
