Chapter 3 — After the separation, General Quy knelt and asked me to look at him one more time

After finishing speaking, she glanced at Lieu Nhu Yen. Lieu Nhu Yen immediately understood. The corners of her lips curled up triumphantly, both hands raised the tea cup in front of me. "Sister, please have some tea." "From now on, we sisters will have to serve the general together and take care of our grandparents together." Her voice was soft to the bone. Every word uttered is like a needle, piercing straight into the heart of any government. She is claiming sovereignty over me. She firmly believes... I can only be patient. Old lady Luc also looked at me with pride. Wait for me to bow my head. Wait for me to submit. Waiting for me to drink the cup of tea that brings with it the greatest humiliation of this life. In their eyes... That cup of tea was the last straw enough to break me. Unfortunately... They were wrong. I slowly raised my head. His eyes glanced over the tea cup in front of him, stopping on Lieu Nhu Yen's face filled with triumph. Then... I smiled. 3My laugh was very soft, but like a sharp ice tip, piercing the false gentleness in the room. The smile on Lieu Nhu Yen's face immediately stiffened. Old Lady Luc's eyebrows also frowned. "What are you laughing at?" She asked in a serious voice. I didn't pay attention to her, my eyes remained on Lieu Nhu Yen, and slowly spoke. "This red outfit of yours is truly a joy to wear." Lieu Nhu Yen heard that, instinctively puffed up her chest, a smug look appeared on her face. "Thank you for your compliments, this is the general's outfit specially prepared for me." She thought I was praising her. ta. The smile at the corner of my lips deepened, my eyes became colder inch by inch. "I just don't know when the day my father and elder brother triumph, will I still have my life to leave him alone?" Lieu Nhu Yen's face immediately turned pale. Mrs. Luc suddenly slammed down on the table and angrily shouted: "Tham Tri Dien! You dare to speak to the crowd here, curse the new wife!" I finally turned my eyes to her, my tone was still calm without any ripples, "I'm just stating a truth." I paused for a moment, my voice was not loud, but each word was clear, like a heavy hammer pounding on their hearts. "Anyway, family members who disturb the military's heart, according to my Great Zhou military law, will have... their assets confiscated and be beheaded throughout the entire family." I said the four words "decapitated the entire family" very softly, but I did not let it go. The air in the whole room seemed to freeze. The faces of Mrs. Luc and Lieu Nhu Yen changed from pale white to pale green. They did not expect that not only would I not cry and cause trouble, but on the contrary, I would directly invoke Dai Zhou's military law. "You... you talk nonsense!" Lieu Nhu Yen's voice trembled, "The news that the Tham family's army was defeated in Bac Cuong, the whole capital knows! Your father and elder brother can hardly keep themselves together, who do you want to threaten with them?" "Oh?" I raised my eyebrows, "Does the whole capital know?" I slowly stood up, step by step walked to the front of Mrs. Luc, looking straight into her eyes full of doubt and uncertainty. "You are right, it's just that the court hasn't yet announced the mourning, you're already hastily labeling our Tham family as 'defeated', what is your intention?" My voice suddenly turned cold. "If this gets spread out, I'm afraid I'll be accused of 'disrupting the army'. heart'.” Old Mrs. Luc was choked up by my question, so she instinctively took a half step back. Vibration of the military mind! This hat is too big, so big that she can't bear it at all! Whether you win or lose in battle, as long as the court's official newspaper is not transmitted for a day, any rumors related to victory or defeat can be considered false rumors. Spreading this kind of rumor, especially among a general's family, is absolutely a serious crime! She dares to be so arrogant,

It's just that I just rely on closing the door in the government, thinking that I don't dare to make a big deal of it. "You... you don't say sensational words here!" Old Mrs. Luc shouted loudly, "Your father and brother are being trapped, it's true! Your Tham family is about to collapse, it's also true! Today I must revoke my housekeeper's rights. If you don't hand it over, don't blame me for not loving my wife and daughter-in-law!" After all, she was willing to say the true purpose of tonight. Forcing me to hand over housekeeping rights. Steal my dowry. "Do you want housekeeper rights?" I smiled softly, took off the key chain from my waist, and conveniently threw it on the table. "If you want, just take it." My decisiveness on the contrary made them stunned. They had prepared both threats and seductions. In the end, it was like throwing a punch at cotton. Lieu Nhu Yen's eyes flashed with greed. She couldn't help but quickly reached out to grab the key chain.
