Quick Transmigration: The Supporting Character Just Wants to Die a Natural Death
Chapter 668 The Abandoned Wife 16
Yao Xiuan's face was full of sneer: "What, your father is getting married, and I, his son, can't even go and see? Get out of my way!"
At this moment, an old voice rang out: "Xiao An, you must stay in the house today and not go anywhere. This is my order."
Yao Xiuan's expression changed slightly: "Grandmother."
"Don't think I don't know what you're up to. If you keep arguing, I'll have someone knock you out."
"Grandmother, my mother is still alive. Why should my father be allowed to marry?"
Yao's mother slammed the armrest against the ground: "Your mother betrayed the Yao family and almost caused the deaths of more than twenty of us in the capital! I will never allow such a slut to re-enter the Yao family."
Yao Xiuan rarely saw his grandmother so agitated and angry, and his tone lowered slightly: "Mother was just young and ignorant, thinking that the Wang family wouldn't do anything to you, and besides, aren't we still alive?"
"We are still alive because His Majesty came to save us. Even so, more than ten people died while we were fleeing, including three of your cousins and their families." Yao's mother's eyes grew increasingly resentful.
"When Wang Miao was in power, in order to intimidate certain lords, he captured their families and beheaded them on the spot, leaving their bodies to rot in the wilderness. Even children were killed. At that time, his greatest enemy was His Majesty. How could he spare us? Doesn't Meng Lingyan know this? She just wants to use the Yao family's lives to protect herself."
"Back then, I didn't mention Meng Lingyan too much because you were young, afraid of making you feel burdened, but I didn't expect you to become more and more disappointing."
"grandmother....."
Disappointment filled Yao's eyes, and she didn't say anything more before turning and leaving.
Looking at the closed door, Yao Xiuan felt a surge of panic and resentment. Why did they keep dwelling on the hatred of the past? His mother knew she was wrong a long time ago, and he was their only son. Couldn't they fulfill his wishes?
Inside the room, Yao Huaijin looked at the anxious Jiang Suqiu and told her about Meng Lingyan's situation.
"From now on, you don't need to see Xiao An. If he tries to do anything to you, just have the guards throw him out. Also, if anything happens, just tell me. I like to speak my mind freely."
"Yes, my husband. Meng Lingyan told me yesterday that you have health problems and that I should refuse this marriage, otherwise I will ruin myself. But I don't care about these things. I just want a place to live."
Yao Huaijin's face was gloomy. This Meng Lingyan was simply a persistent ghost: "I did have some health problems before, but they were cured. Everything will take its natural course."
"it is good."
.....
After the Yao family cut off Yao Xiuan's expenses, Meng Lingyan became increasingly impoverished. However, Yao Xiuan still often gave Meng Lingyan food from home, but he couldn't afford to buy anything she wanted. Yao Xiuan tried his old trick of making a scene, but found it was no use.
The Yao family became increasingly indifferent to him.
While Yao Feiran was implementing nine-year compulsory education, Yao Ruoshen fell ill and went back to rest for a few days.
When she came back, her face was slightly flushed.
"What happened? Why are you so happy?"
"Sister, don't be angry when I tell you, I've found a man."
"Who is it?"
"It's that Xiao Zhaoyan. He was thinking of saving you before. He is indeed quite simple-minded and has no ulterior motives towards me."
Yao Feiran shook her head. The other party only wanted to save her unintentionally, and at that time, their eyes did not seem to have any other intentions.
However, Xiao Zhaoyan's luck clashes with his own, and he doesn't know how his luck is with Yao Ruoshen.
"Why would I be angry? I never had any feelings for him to begin with. Have you fallen for him?"
"I wouldn't say I like him, it's just that there's a funny fat guy here, and he's good-looking. If I have a daughter in the future, she'll definitely be very beautiful."
Yao Ruoshen was once the most beautiful woman in the capital. The two were equally good-looking. Now that Yao Ruoshen holds a high position, she is inevitably lonely at times. It would be nice if she had a simple and handsome man by her side.
"When are you going to call him over? I want to have your fortunes told."
Yao Ruoshen is no longer the female lead with the destiny of a heroine; she can still be used for simple fortune telling.
"Okay, I almost forgot that my sister used to be the all-knowing fortune teller Yao Bansian."
Yao Feiran's lips twitched; this fortune teller always seemed a bit strange.
Yao Ruoshen brought Xiao Zhaoyan over. Yao Feiran narrowed her eyes slightly. This guy is a jinx to his wives. Being with Yao Ruoshen will cause Yao Ruoshen to die young. The reason for his short life is related to fertility.
Childbirth is extremely dangerous for women, and even with advance prevention, it is often futile unless Yao Feiran's soul strength can modify her physical strength and she has the energy to guarantee her safety.
Xiao Zhaoyan looked at Yao Feiran with some trepidation: "Your Majesty, I was overestimating myself back then and did not know that I was Your Majesty."
"It's alright. You were also full of youthful innocence back then, knowing it was impossible but still doing it anyway."
She had previously researched that Xiao Zhaoyan was well-liked by his family, and that he respected women, was polite, and was quite knowledgeable, having become a Juren (a successful candidate in the imperial examinations) at a young age. Although he couldn't compare to his elder brother, he was still considered a promising young talent.
Yao Feiran then quizzed him on his knowledge, and his answers were quite commendable. After a while, Yao Feiran let him leave.
Seeing Yao Feiran deep in thought, Yao Ruoshen asked curiously, "Is there something going on between us in the future?"
"Yes, childbirth is a life-threatening ordeal for women. If you were with him, you would likely die and your child would survive. However, the outcome might be different with someone else. In other words, he is your nemesis."
Yao Ruoshen was filled with doubt and suspicion. She did not doubt that her sister was lying to her. Her sister was omniscient and omnipotent, so there was no need for her to lie to her. Even if she were to be crippled directly, no one in the court would dare to say anything.
"I never imagined that giving birth would be so dangerous. But if I have no descendants, who will inherit this empire? I don't want the Lin family to inherit it. Someone like Lin Zhengbai, having power will only make him more reckless."
The other party is still crippled in his mansion. Because he cannot stand up, his temper has become very irritable. If he were to take power one day, he would probably be a stupid tyrant.
However, the collateral branches of the Lin family are in a better position, and most of them are close advisors to the emperor. They were the ones who helped Yao Feiran conquer the country, but they are few in number and there are no suitable candidates.
Yao Feiran said indifferently, "Then let's not give them power, just keep the royal family's honor. Actually, there is another system in foreign countries where the royal family is a kind of mascot, while the power lies with the people."
"Does power reside with the people?"
"I will write it down later, and you can study it slowly. There is still a long time. We can live a long time. Compared to an heir, our own lives are the most important."
Yao Ruoshen nodded, but hesitated about Xiao Zhaoyan. Her own life was more important than being with him.
Afterwards, Yao Ruoshen took the initiative to distance herself from Xiao Zhaoyan. Xiao Zhaoyan was a little confused and went to find her directly, but Yao Ruoshen avoided seeing her and went out to work after receiving her assignment.
As a result, Xiao's father approached Yao Feiran.
"Your Majesty, Her Highness the Crown Princess has shown interest in my son, but ever since he met you, she has ignored him. Has my son done something disrespectful to Your Majesty?"
"Be careful what you say! The Crown Princess has never said she has any interest in Xiao Zhaoyan."
When Xiao's father saw Yao Feiran's indifferent gaze, his heart tightened. Remembering Yao Feiran's wrist, he quickly apologized and left.
