Chapter 7 — He said he wouldn't marry me until the Holy Order came down and he would go crazy

The Emperor coldly said:

"You murdered your brother to usurp your position, deceived the king, hid the truth, and still dare to talk to me about your reputation?"

Tham Nghien Phong's face was as white as ashes. Old Lady Tham suddenly rushed towards Tham Nghien Tu.

“Nghyan Tu!”

“You can't treat the Tham family like that!”

“In my body, the blood of the Tham family still flows!”

The black armored guard immediately stopped her. Tham Nghien Tu looked down at her.

“The old lady said it wrong.”

"This king's blood was returned to the Tham family ten years ago."

Mrs. Tham was stunned. Tham Nghien Tu turned around.

"The rest is the life that the soldiers on the Northern border picked up for this king from among the pile of dead people."

My heart tightened slightly. When Mrs. Tham was dragged away, she kept calling his name. But Tham Nghien Tu never turned back. When Mrs. Tham passed by him, she suddenly pulled away from the guard's hand and knelt down at his feet.

“Nghyan Tu, mother is wrong.”

"I respect the love of my mother who gave birth to me, please save Nghien Phong."

As soon as these words fell, many people in the main hall changed their expressions. Even I was stunned for a moment. At this point, the grandmother begged, but it was still Tham Nghien Phong. Tham Nghien Tu finally bowed his head to look at her.

“Just now you asked me if I could save him.”

“So ten years ago, I was at the bottom of the abyss waiting for someone to save me.”

“What are you doing?”

Mrs. Tham's whole body trembled violently. She opened her mouth, but couldn't make any sound. Tham Nghien Tu took a step back. The guards pulled Mrs. Tham out of the main hall. When Tham Nghien Phong was being escorted to stand up, he suddenly turned his head to look at me. His eyes were bloodshot and scary.

“To Van Nguyet.”

“Did you collude with him from the beginning?”

"You've been chasing me for ten years, is it all fake?"

I look at him.

“That's why I feel even more disgusted.”

Tham Nghien Phong's whole body shook. We continue to say:

“I once honestly treated someone who didn't deserve it.”

"I also honestly feel lucky, the person who is not marrying me today is him."

Tham Nghien Phong looked like someone had just slapped him hard. When he was dragged to the main hall door, he suddenly struggled frantically.

“To Van Nguyet, don't be so quick to be complacent!”

"An Bac Vuong marrying her may not be sincere!"

“Do you really think you won?”

Tham Nghien Tu tilted his face slightly, his eyes deep. Tham Nghien Phong smiled maliciously.

“You still don't know, right?”

"That year at the bottom of the abyss, the jade pendant you picked up was not engraved with her name."

This sentence from Tham Nghien Phong makes my heart sink slightly. The wind blew in from outside the palace door, making the candlelight sway continuously. Everyone's eyes fell on Tham Nghien Tu. Tham Nghien Tu said nothing. The more silent he was, the more Tham Nghien Phong laughed.

“Why don't you say more?”

“Didn't you try your best to protect her just now?”

"Do you dare tell her why you agreed to this marriage?"

The black armored guard held Tham Nghien Phong's shoulder tightly. But it seemed like before he died, he also wanted to pull others into the water.

“To Van Nguyet, you really think you can escape me Can you marry a good person?

"She is just a pawn he uses to take revenge on the Tham family."

“He wants to marry you, just because you are a woman that I don't need.”

Thanh La was so angry that her face turned white.

“You talk nonsense!”

Tham Nghien Phong stared at me and said fiercely:

"Whether I spoke nonsense or not, let An Bac Vuong answer for himself."

I looked towards Tham Nghien Tu. He stood under the light, his eyes and eyebrows covered in darkness. In that moment, I suddenly remembered the words that the eunuch giving instructions brought on his behalf when I received the instructions.

“Today, the lady has to suffer frustration.”

He knows I have suffered humiliation. He also knows that this marriage will push us to the top of the storm. So, why did he choose me? The Emperor frowned slightly.

“Secret down.”

But Tham Nghien Phong was still screaming loudly.

“To Van Nguyet, please remember carefully.”

"Today you just turned from a joke into another joke!"

His screams grew farther and farther away, then gradually disappeared. The main hall once again became quiet. But that silence no longer feels like a trial of guilt. It's more like everyone is waiting to see a new exciting scene. I clenched the hand holding the holy decree. Tham Nghien Tu stepped in front of me.

“Miss To.”

He just called those exact words. However, I heard there was a bit of hesitation. It turns out that a cold and tough person like him sometimes hesitates. I raised my eyes to look at him.

“If the Prince has something to say, just say it directly.”
