Chapter 1138: This Prince Will Make You Kneel and Beg for Me

r, but Zong Bai was also very tall, definitely over six feet tall. It was hard to pat his shoulder, and the posture looked awkward!She was a little puzzled. Her mother-in-law wasn't tall, so why were...Chapter 1138: This Prince Will Make You Kneel and Beg for Mercy

"You are, the daughter of the Minister of War, Wen Xiaorou"

Fang Jinxiu's gaze fell on her protruding belly, and she was stunned for a moment before remembering.

After Wen Xiaorou's engagement with the Zong family failed, she was sent to the Yuan residence by her father as a way to please Yuan Xiang. Now that she is Yuan Buyu's concubine, is the child in her womb his

Fang Jinxiu was speechless.

Although a man may be able to impregnate a woman even at seventy years old as long as he is physically healthy.

But few of the shameless can actually do such a thing.

This old geezer, Yuan Buyu, is shameless at his age for preying on young girls.

Wen Xiaorou's gaze toward her was filled with hatred.

"Lady Wu Hou has a good memory, she still remembers me, the daughter of a small clerk."

"I've heard that people from the countryside have a good memory. Seeing you today, it seems to be true."

The maid beside Wen Xiaorou immediately agreed, "Yes, this servant is from the countryside and has always had a good memory. The master values the child in the madam's belly and instructed this servant many things, which this servant has kept in mind one by one and not forgotten a single word."

Fang Jinshi listened to the back-and-forth between the mistress and servant and found it rather amusing. What was the point of this kindergarten-style bickering

She nodded generously, admitting it.

"Yes, I'm from the countryside."

"What's wrong"

"Your Majesty didn't say that people from the countryside couldn't sit here and watch the competition, did he"

She made Wen Xiaorou's face change color with a single sentence.

"You! Fang Jinshui, everyone sitting here today comes from a distinguished aristocratic family. Your current position is purely due to good luck."

"Don't get too cocky!"

Fang Jinshu knew where her hostility came from, to be honest, she felt a bit sorry for Wen Xiaorou.

Throughout the entire ordeal, this girl was truly the most innocent one. Her arranged marriage with Zong Taiwu was her father's idea. A man like Zong Taiwu was destined to be a terrible husband and an unkind person.

Although the marriage eventually fell through, her father Wen Xiong still hadn't let go of Wen Xiaorou.

Although Wen Xiong appears to love his daughter on the surface, in reality, he only cares about his own future. In order to show his loyalty to Yuan Xiang, he is willing to sacrifice the happiness of his own biological daughter.

It's perfectly normal for Wen Xiaorou to feel resentment in her heart.

Every single thing, every decision she couldn't control, her own destiny was always held in the hands of others.

Therefore, Fang Jinshu was exceptionally tolerant of her provocations and did not retaliate with swift and decisive action.

If this were anyone else, they would have been driven to tears by her several times already.

Miss Wen, since you are pregnant, it's best to go back and rest properly.

"No matter what my station, it is His Majesty who has placed me here today. Dare you question the will of His Majesty"

Sometimes bringing up the emperor to scare people is quite effective. Wen Xiaorou immediately changed her expression after hearing this.

"Fang Jinshi, I have achieved this today all thanks to you. I hate you."

She glared at her, tears welling in her eyes.

Fang Jinxiu replied expressionlessly.

"It was your father who sent you to the Prime Minister's residence, not me."

"Miss Wen, you wouldn't dare defy your own father. What use is it to hate me"

"At first, Zong Taiwu tried to take advantage of me. Could I just give up resisting and let him insult me"

"I did everything back then just for self-preservation. I also wanted to teach him a lesson so he wouldn't dare to provoke me again. I ask myself, my conscience is clear, I haven't done anything wrong."

"I'm really sorry for dragging you into this."

Wen Xiaorou was filled with her own suffering and resentment, both in heart and eye. There was nowhere for her to hear Fang Jinshi's words.

"I don't want to hear your lectures, I won't let you get away with this."

She turned her head to look at the spices covered under a red cloth on the stage, and suddenly let out a snort of laughter.

You want the spices of Xi Xia, I'd rather not let you have your way.

She turned around with her maid and returned to the stands, Yuan Buyu was indeed inside.

Fang Jinshu withdrew her gaze and didn't take Wen Xiaorou's provocation to heart, but Mu Jin, who was beside her, became angry.

"Madam, that woman was too rude. She's just a lowly concubine from the Xiangfu, how dare she speak to you like that."

"I shall teach her a lesson for you."

Rose of Sharon had never been this impulsive before. Fang Jinxiu hurriedly grabbed her.

"It's okay."

"Let her go, it's just a few words. I won't lose any flesh."

Besides, she didn't feel like she had lost out at all. Didn't she see that Wen Xiaorou's face was even worse than hers when she left

"My Lady, as the wife of a First Rank Martial Marquis, you are too approachable. Others might think our Marquis Estate is easy to bully."

Fang Jinshi smiled, "You don't have to worry about this. My wife, I eat everything, just not being bullied or taken advantage of."

"Alright, alright."

She soothed the hibiscus, and Zong Bai sighed along with her.

Wen Xiong defecting to Yuan Shang was also a thorny issue for the elder brother. Wen Xiong constantly clashed with his elder brother in the military.

"The child in Wen Xiaorou's womb is indeed precious. Yuan Buyu, having a son in his old age, naturally values it. As for Wen Xiong, he relies on the child in Wen Xiaorou's womb to strengthen his relationship with Yuan Xiang. I heard that Wen Xiaorou was not favored at all while she was in Xiangfu."

Since her pregnancy, life had been a little better. A constant stream of tonics, all beneficial for the fetus, flowed into her courtyard.

Fang Jinshu heard the subtext in Zong Bai's words.

But no one really cared how Wen Xiaorou was doing, did they

Zong Bo nodded, his sister-in-law truly understood everything.

"It's not her fault that she was born into the Wen family."

Fang Jinshu's arms were not that long, and she couldn't reach Yuan Buyu's back garden affairs for the time being.

The topic came to an abrupt end. Zong Bo saw that his sister-in-law didn't want to talk about it anymore, so he didn't bring it up again.

The game started soon, Zongyu went to find Bai Yu. The two of them changed their clothes together backstage. Hellie was there as expected.

An enemy's face always makes them see red, and Herelle couldn't help but have her eyes flicker when she saw Zong Yu.

Four years ago, he knew Zong Yu wasn't dead. During the Battle of Xizhou, he was shocked to see Zong Yu's name on the list of General Daxhi's soldiers.

This can't kill me.

After that, he became a renowned war god general who shook the world. Four years later, Helly still felt his heart tremble whenever he heard the name Zongyu.

"Master Hou, do you know Prince Herl of Xizhou" Bai Yu saw that the atmosphere between the two was very tense as soon as they met, and he subconsciously asked a question.

Zongyu also knew that it was not suitable to have a conflict with Hellie here. Back then, he had almost caused them husband and wife to die tragically. This account was not only remembered by Jinxiu, but he would never let it go.

The Western Xia and the Great Xi would eventually clash in battle, Zong Yu knew this deep down.

This trade fair, the Xixia attendees are not well-intentioned. From the change in atmosphere at court these days, it can be seen that they fear the Xixia.

Even Yuan Xiang advocated against conflict with Xixia, prioritizing peace as much as possible.

In recent years, Xixia has grown in strength. After many years of recuperation and growth, their military prowess is greatly enhanced.

And Da Xi had just finished a four-year war with Wu Meng, leaving the national treasury depleted. It would take at least two years for it to recover.

It is not advisable to engage in conflict with Xixia at this time.

Without a word, Zongyu changed his clothes and turned to leave.

"Let's go."

Bai Yu hurried to catch up.

Hell's Gate, who was expected to be so prestigious, had actually run away in disgrace. At first, he felt a little scared, but it quickly turned into smugness, and he foolishly opened his mouth to provoke.

"A stray dog, seeing this prince, would run away."

"When I take the stage later, I will have you kneel before me and beg for mercy!"of face this time because of her daughter's affair. Even the husband she always boasts about being devoted to her is not truly sincere towards her.""How is she going to strut around here like this aft...
