Selling wife for fame? Kick out the scumbag and marry the new emperor to enjoy the harem of favors

Chapter 19 If You Kneel Down and Beg Me
Xie Jiu was in Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and had no idea what was happening in the Xie family.

She was busy packing her things.

When Wu Que heard that Xie Jiu was counting the dowry, he felt that Xie Jiu was taking advantage of the palace and wanted to draw a clear line between him and her, which made him even angrier.

But besides being angry, he actually wanted to get some information from Xie Jiu and wanted to know Zhao Xingjin's current attitude towards Weiyuan Marquis Mansion.

But if you want to ask for help from others, you have to be humble, and Wu Que naturally didn't want to do that.

After much thought, he sent someone to Wu Qingchan, wanting her to go to Xie Jiu and apologize for sending things into the palace and insulting Xie Jiu, and take the opportunity to find out.

Unexpectedly, Wu Qingchan was slapped by him that day and was also confined to her room. She was very angry and refused to do anything.

He directly drove out the people sent by Wu Que.

As the saying goes, evil will always be punished by evil. Wu Que was very angry again. He had no choice but to go there himself.

The maid guarding the gate came to report that the Marquis had arrived. When Qingfang heard this, she immediately wanted to chase him away, but was stopped by Xie Jiu.

"Let him in." Xie Jiu raised the corners of his lips in a good mood, "I want to see what this dog can spit out."

After hearing this, Wu Que quickly came into the house.

"My Lord, would you like some tea? Pour it yourself, don't be restrained." Xie Jiu didn't stand up, but sat by the window lazily holding a round fan.

Wu Que suddenly felt as if he had arrived at someone else's house, as if he had come to ask for help.

Although he did come to ask for help, this was his Wu family's residence, but now it seemed to have become Xie Jiu's home ground, which made him very unhappy.

"No need." Wu Que, still thinking of something important, held back his emotions. "I came here to tell you that your entry into the palace isn't a glorious thing. Everyone knows what's going on behind the scenes. You really don't need to be so ostentatious. Be careful not to be abandoned one day. You'll have no place to cry and will eventually have to return to my Wu family."

He said this in order to make Xie Jiu consider the possible consequences he might face in the future and step down on his own initiative.

Xie Jiu sneered in his heart, but pretended to be in deep thought on his face.

After a long while, he finally spoke, "My Lord, you are telling me this not out of concern for my future fate. My Lord, you can just tell me what you want to know from me."

Seeing that the other party was on the right track, Wu Que felt relieved.

Just when Xie Jiu started to feel scared, he cheered up again.

"You married me, and you're inseparable from me. You're a member of the Wu family anyway, so if anything happens to the Wu family, you can't escape. Right now, the Emperor is investigating corruption in the military. I heard that many of those under investigation were once close to me. I'm worried that the Emperor might become suspicious of me because of this. Do you know the inside story?"

When he said this, he looked down on others. If you didn't know him, you would really think that he was the one who held the initiative.

Xie Jiu didn't respond in time, and there seemed to be a hint of smile in his eyes when he looked at him.

Wu Que felt his scalp tingling when she looked at him, and he couldn't help but frown.

"Look at what I'm doing, and then tell me what you want to say."

"I was wondering why the Marquis always takes it for granted." Xie Jiu helped Chunrong stand up with his hand, smacking his lips. "If you didn't know, you would think I owed the Marquis."

Wu Que's face darkened. "Isn't it? You are unfaithful to your husband and shameless. I should..."

"Should have what?" Xie Jiu smiled brightly. "Let me think about it. The Marquis is trying to say that he should have divorced me. Then why didn't the Marquis bring the divorce letter with him?"

As she spoke, she walked slowly over and circled around Wu Que, as if she was really looking to see if Wu Que had the divorce letter on him.

"Tsk, Lord Marquis, you are reluctant and don't want to divorce me, or you don't dare?"

When their eyes met, the coldness and sharpness in Xie Jiu's eyes made Wu Que break out in a cold sweat on his back and his throat tightened.

But people tend to get angry more easily when they are wrong and feel guilty.

So after a moment of tension, Wu Que became angry, "I came here with good intentions to remind you and not to hold a grudge against you, but how dare you talk to me like this? Ever since you entered my Wu family, how have I ever treated you unfairly? Now that you are having an affair with someone else, you still have the nerve to say this?!" He suddenly became angry, and Xie Jiu seemed to be frightened, and took two steps back with a bad look on his face.

"It was just a joke. Why is your Majesty so angry? It's really boring."

"Who's kidding?" Wu Que's face was gloomy. "Don't think that everything will be fine if you hook up with the emperor. The higher you climb, the harder it is to fall. You'd better leave yourself a way out. Now I'm willing to give you a chance. If you don't cherish it, you will have nowhere to go in the future. Don't come to me for help."

After he finished speaking, Xie Jiu burst into laughter, and it seemed that tears came out of his eyes, as if he had heard some huge joke.

When Wu Que saw her like this, his expression became uglier and uglier.

"Crazy woman, what are you laughing at!"

"What are you laughing at?" Xie Jiu said with a sneer on his face, "You are laughing at the Marquis for treating everyone else as a fool."

Wu Que pursed his lips and remained silent for a while.

Xie Jiu didn't stop, he raised his chin slightly, with a fierce look in his eyes, "You don't think that I don't know your plans, do you? I have come to this point today because of you."

At this point, there was another sneer.

"Your Majesty, are you talking to me about the future? I don't have the leisure to do that. I only focus on the present. If someone makes me unhappy, I can still say a few words in front of the emperor. I think the emperor is still willing to spend time on me now."

She came closer and closer, until Wu Que couldn't help but take a few steps back and keep a distance from her.

Indeed, before coming here, Wu Que was trying to deceive himself.

He thought, what if Xie Jiu didn't know that he originally wanted to sell her out, then the relationship between the two of them would become simple, and Xie Jiu would be cheating on him, so he would be the one in the right.

It’s a pity that it didn’t go as he wished.

Not only did Xie Jiu directly and rudely break up with him, he also imitated him and acted as if he was giving alms.

"My Lord, don't you want to know the Emperor's attitude towards you? But if you ask for help, you should always act in a begging manner. A day of marriage is like a hundred days of grace. I can't bear to do anything too extreme. As long as you are willing to kneel down and beg me, I will naturally tell you everything."

Hearing this, Wu Que's sense of humiliation quickly rose again, and anger immediately appeared on his face.

"Don't even think about it! Do you think I can do nothing without you?"

"Oh, isn't that so?" Xie Jiu pretended to be surprised. "I was thinking that if you were willing to kneel down and beg me, I could put in a few good words for you in front of the emperor. If nothing else, at least I could save your life. But now it seems that my worries were unnecessary. Since the Marquis has his own clever plan, let it go."

After saying that, he waved his hand, signaling Chunrong to see the guest off.

Chunrong was not vague either. She stepped forward and tried to push Wu Que out.

Wu Que's face turned pale and blue, and the veins on his forehead throbbed as if they were about to explode. He looked at Xie Jiu with eyes that seemed to want to skin him alive and cut him into pieces.

But Xie Jiu's words, "At least you can save your life", made him afraid, fearing that Zhao Xingjin had already decided to take action against him.

But if he really had to kneel down and beg Xie Jiu, he would not be able to do it now.

So he was conflicted for a long time, but finally left angrily without saying a word.

Watching him leave, Xie Jiu chuckled, fanned himself with a round fan, and went back to the house to continue counting things.

Don't be in a hurry. She knows how afraid of death Wu Que is. Sooner or later, he will kneel down in front of her.

But for now, I don’t have to worry about dealing with Wu Que, but I still have to pay attention to dealing with the one in the palace.

When he came out, he told him to go back to the palace the next morning.

You can't be lazy for the whole day. You have to finish your work quickly and get some sleep. You can continue to make the old fox happy tomorrow.
