Chapter 6 — I married him, but I personally married Bach Nguyet Quang into the palace

People were talking loudly, saying that a young woman had been humiliated and abused to death by more than ten beggars. Her death was extremely miserable. The mandarin sent someone to the Royal Palace to invite Co Lam Xuyen to receive the body. He didn't leave, just coldly said one sentence:

"Incitement."

I looked at the body that no longer had a human shape, looked at the crescent-shaped birthmark on the inside of her thigh that had turned blue and purple, and there was not a single wave in my heart. On Dao Nguyet. What you did to me in your previous life. Today, I have returned it to you. On Dao Nguyet's death was like a thorn piercing deeply into Co Lam Xuyen's heart. He began to have nightmares often, dreaming of On Dao Nguyet covered in blood coming to demand his life. His spirit became more and more panicked, and his body became visibly thinner. He began to come to me looking for comfort, wanting to be close to me. But I just feel extremely disgusted. In his daily meal, I secretly added a medicinal herb that was incompatible with the nutritional supplement he was currently using. That medicine will not kill him immediately. It only made his body weaker and weaker, gradually losing any interest in the bedroom. Ten months pregnant. I successfully gave birth to a baby boy. He is the only heir to the Royal Palace and my support in the future. But at that moment, Co Lam Xuyen's body completely collapsed. Every night he was tormented by nightmares, and during the day he was mentally sluggish, like a disabled person. Due Vuong and Princess Due were extremely worried, took him to the famous ancient mountain on the outskirts of the capital to pray to God and worship Buddha, hoping to help him exorcise evil and avoid disaster. On the way back, their convoy unfortunately encountered a group of fierce robbers. Since then, Due Vuong, Due Vuong Phi and their precious son... Lived without seeing anyone. Dead without a body. Just like that, it disappeared without a trace. The sky of the Royal Palace collapsed. I, the recently widowed Crown Princess, holding my son still in diapers, became the sole owner of the Royal Palace. A year has passed. Since the day Due Vuong Palace encountered a great change, the whole capital could not help but sigh in admiration. Everyone said that although God took away Giang Tri Lang's husband, he gave her a good child and an entire royal palace to take care of. She alone supported a large family business, took care of the little prince growing up, and kept all the internal and external accounts clear and in order. The shops and manor houses in the name of the Royal Palace not only did not decline after the incident, but on the contrary, they became increasingly prosperous. Even the Emperor repeatedly rewarded and praised her as a virtuous example of women in the world. Giang Tri Lang's reputation spread throughout the capital. Every time the ladies mentioned her, they couldn't hide their admiration.

"Truly a blessed person."

"Due Vuong's palace suffered such a big disaster but she still revived it."

"Having a master mother like that is truly a blessing to the entire Royal Palace."

Every time he heard those words, Giang Tri Lang just smiled slightly, then quietly closed the topic. Only she herself knows. Those compliments never made my heart truly at peace. During the day, she is a dignified mother, handling everything properly, not letting anyone see the slightest flaw. But every time night falls, I sleep Old dreams still come quietly like ghosts. In the dream, the ruined temple was still as cold as ever. On the patchy ground were dried blood stains. Outside the door, the cold wind whistled through the brick crack. Every time she woke up, the back of her shirt was drenched in cold sweat. She no longer hates Co Lam Xuyen. No longer resent On Dao Nguyet. Those people have long been no longer qualified to stir her heart. There are wounds that have closed, but memories have never stopped bleeding. Right at the beginning of the spring of the second year, a team of officials from the border rushed back to the capital, bringing news that shocked the whole court. After the robbery that year, Due Vuong and Due Vuong Phi both died in the deep mountains to protect their son. Co Lam Xuyen is still alive. That news was like a big stone thrown into a lake that had been quiet for a year. There was a stir of discussion throughout the capital.
