Reborn Noble Daughter and First Wife

Chapter 140 What Can He Do?

It is said that Gu Qinglian went to the palace, and when she came back, she was even more depressed all day long.In modern times, she has seen many ancient TV dramas in which parents sold their daughters and nieces for the sake of prosperity and wealth, and betrothed them to high-ranking officials as concubines or even just as maids.

Unexpectedly, I traveled to ancient times. Although I was already the first wife of a great general, she still couldn't escape the frame of my mother's family.In order to please the emperor and preserve her personal glory and wealth, she did not hesitate to join forces to design a trap. The more Gu Qinglian thought about it, the angrier she became.

I have become a monkey myself, being played around by others!

Ever since that night in the Xishan Palace, Shen Congjia knew that the emperor had long coveted Gu Qinglian's beauty, but she was the wife of an important official in the court, and she had no chance to strike at her. In the palace, it must be because of this, Gu Qinglian not only did not shirk, but entered the palace instead.

The scene of Xishan Palace lingered in Shen Congjia's mind like a movie.The anger in his heart was also blazing, and he walked quickly into the Haitang courtyard, and saw the maid under the porch asking sharply: "Where is the young mistress?"

Seeing Shen Congjia's livid face, the maid Cui'er stood aside in fright, and said timidly, "I'm reading in the room."

Shen Congjia walked straight into the room, and as soon as he entered the room, he saw Gu Qinglian lying on the imperial concubine's couch and reading a book.

He walked over, pulled the book to the ground, and said coldly, "You still have the mood to read."

Gu Qinglian was taken aback, seeing Shen Congjia's gloomy face, with a trace of coldness in his eyes, staring at her firmly.

What kind of demon is this guy today!Come here and go crazy!
"Husband, what's the matter?" Gu Qinglian stood up slowly, looking directly at him calmly, she was used to Shen Congjia's appearance, so now it's no surprise.

Seeing that she was still so calm, Shen Congjia's anger surged up in her heart.He stepped forward and grabbed her arm tightly, gritted his teeth and said word by word: "You, yesterday, day, entered the palace!?" His eyes were like a sharp knife looking straight at Gu Qinglian, I wish I could poke a hole out of her.

When Gu Qinglian heard the word entering the palace, her body trembled instinctively as if she had been electrocuted.She knew that Shen Congjia was very jealous of her entering the palace. Since the night in the Xishan palace, whenever he mentioned the emperor's affairs, he would get angry at her for no reason, but now he couldn't hide it from him.

Feeling a little flustered in my heart, I didn't dare to look him in the eyes anymore, and explained a little incoherently: "Well, I went to the palace with my sister to meet Concubine Gu."

"Oh, is that so? Are you not seeing anyone else?" Shen Congjia's expression was originally hesitant, but now it became even darker.

If she said she didn't see other people, maybe even Gu Qinglian herself wouldn't believe it. Looking at the situation in front of her, if she lied, her death would be even worse.So Gu Qinglian looked directly at Shen Congjia and said in a very calm tone: "I met the emperor at lunch."

Gu Qinglian didn't lie, but Shen Congjia felt a little relieved, at least she was trustworthy based on this.

"Is it as simple as just seeing?" Shen Congjia snorted coldly.

In fact, he was very uneasy in his heart. He knew that the emperor coveted Gu Qinglian's beauty. Could Zhou Sicheng let her go so easily when he entered the palace this time?He really wanted to know the truth, but he didn't want to hear Gu Qinglian's answer, so he was very conflicted.

Gu Qinglian saw a trace of uneasiness in Shen Congjia's eyes, why was she unwilling to tell him the whole truth, but would he believe her words?He almost killed her that time in Xishan Palace. If he told him, the end would be even worse.

But Gu Qinglian still didn't want to hide it. After all, she was the real victim. Gu Qinglian thought about it with modern thinking and decided to confess everything. She didn't expect him to trust her completely, at least she had a clear conscience.In fact, Gu Qinglian still had a little hope for Shen Congjia in her heart.

She still replied calmly: "It's not just meeting, the emperor wanted to rape me, and I struggled desperately to escape."

Shen Congjia has already been overwhelmed by jealousy in his heart now, he is more and more sure that Gu Qinglian is acting, no matter whether she is pretending to be innocent or what, she will always make him believe her, which makes him very annoyed, and his teeth are gritted . "The emperor would be so fatuous and indecent to the wife of an important minister?"

A burst of cold laughter came from Gu Qinglian's mouth. She looked at him indifferently, and felt that her words and actions just now were extremely ridiculous. She still had a little illusion about him, imagining that he could believe that at least she didn't take the initiative. Seduce the emperor.

She was wrong, dead wrong!

This cold laughter echoed throughout the room, and it was very scary to hear.

Shen Congjia's suppressed anger for a long time, mixed with jealousy and a kind of indescribable despair, completely broke out.

He tightly grasped Gu Qinglian's arm, his nails seemed to be inserted into her flesh, his eyes were cold like a devil with a murderous look, he raised his right hand and slapped Gu Qinglian's face viciously.

Gu Qinglian didn't make any resistance, and looked at him indifferently, her eyes were full of contempt, she didn't dodge her face, but greeted him.

Shen Congjia's arm hanging in the air trembled, and his palm stopped next to Gu Qinglian's mouth. He looked at her, and a trace of unbearable feeling flashed in his heart.

The murderous look in his eyes was swallowed by a kind of despair, he shook off her arm vigorously, and threw her heavily on the bed.

"Okay, very good, don't you just want to leave the Shen family, I'll help you!" Shen Congjia said these words very slowly, each word was so heavy that it was shocking.

Gu Qinglian sat slumped on the bed, her hair was already disheveled by the fall just now, fear swept her like a tide, she waited quietly, waiting for the violent beating like a storm.

But I couldn't wait for the imaginary pain for a long time.She raised her head and glanced at Shen Congjia.

There was no anger in Shen Congjia's eyes, only despair, and there seemed to be a tear in the corner of his eyes, crystal clear.

Why did she still see a trace of reluctance in his eyes? This made Gu Qinglian's heart flutter, as if a needle had been pricked, and there were bursts of stinging pain. shed before the face.

Just like that, they looked at each other for a few seconds, Shen Congjia clenched his fists, closed his eyes and raised his head, took a deep breath, turned his back in despair, and disappeared into her gradually blurred vision.

Gu Qinglian sat alone on the bed for a long time, her hair was disheveled, there were two lines of tears on her face, and a large bruise on her arm.

There was a lot of turmoil in the room just now, and the maids didn't dare to come in. Fangxin walked in lightly when she saw Shen Congjia leaving angrily. Seeing Gu Qinglian like this, she was startled and asked timidly: "Young lady, Are you okay?"

Gu Qinglian wiped her tears with her hands, and said in a low voice: "I'm fine, you can step back."

Fangxin backed away obediently, Gu Qinglian fell on the bed with her head up, tears in her eyes, and all thoughts in her heart were lost.Only the whispering of the maids outside the house and the chirping of birds in the trees can be heard.

Shen Congjia came to the study with an angry figure, and slammed the door of the study tightly.

Xiao Xizi and Xiao Fuzi stood at the door tremblingly, no one dared to go in.

It was eerily quiet in the study.After a long time, suddenly, there was a crisp "pop", like the sound of a teacup being broken, Xiao Fuzi secretly guessed, beckoning Xiao Xizi to go in and have a look.

Whoever dares to go in is courting death!

Xiao Xizi pursed her lips, shook her head, and slid her right hand across her neck, making a beheading gesture.

Xiao Fuzi immediately understood, nodded, and took a deep breath.

"Xiao Xizi." A roaring voice broke the silence from the study.

Xiao Xizi jumped all over as if struck by lightning, walked in tremblingly, and asked timidly, "Eldest Young Master, what's the matter with being called a slave?"

When he walked into the room completely, he saw that there were crumpled papers all over the floor, and Shen Congjia was sitting at the desk blankly.

His hair seemed to have been rubbed vigorously, and it was very messy.Her face had lost the vigor of the past, her eyes were drooping, and she looked very haggard. This was the first time Xiao Xizi had seen him so decadent since she served him. She was startled and walked forward slowly. .

Shen Congjia raised his right hand abruptly, and grabbed a piece of paper on the desk. The paper slowly rolled into a ball in his hand with the sound of squeaking. forehead.

Xiao Xizi felt a bit of pain, and a little red spot appeared on her forehead.

"Go, bring a jug of good wine." Shen Congjia roared dully.

"Yes, this servant will go get ready now." Xiao Xizi bowed her head, not daring to be slighted, and replied with a frightened expression.

"Also, take out these papers and burn them." Shen Congjia said in a low voice, his tone became extremely low, as if he had suffered a great blow.

What can Shen Congjia do?If it were other people who fell in love with Gu Qinglian, they would just rely on his skill and beat him up and threaten him.

But that is the current emperor, can he, a courtier, compete with him?
It is not without precedent that the emperor forcibly snatches famous women, even if the emperor orders Gu Qinglian to sleep in her bed now, there is nothing he can do about it.

Thinking of the Xishan Palace, Zhou Sicheng stared at Gu Qinglian's scene with fascination, his heart was surging, and a surge of anger was blocked in his heart, and he roared at Xiao Xizi who was standing there dumbfounded: "Get out!"

Xiao Xizi ran out in a hurry, asked Xiao Fuzi to come in to pack up the paper balls, and ran straight to the kitchen by herself.

Xiao Fuzi timidly walked into the study with a basin in his hand, lowered his head and only picked up the paper balls on the floor, never daring to look up.After picking it up, he walked out of the study room with the basin in his arms. He curiously opened a few balls of paper, and there were only two words written on them: Letter of Divorce
Xiao Fuzi shook his head and walked towards the kitchen.

That night, Shen Congjia was drunk, Xiao Xizi and Xiao Fuzi carried him to Aunt Wang.
