Chapter 17 — On the Wedding Night, I Personally Gave the Wedding Bed to My Sister

26One month later, Murong Triet returned to court. The Emperor personally came out to welcome him ten miles away, appointed him First Class Tran Quoc Cong, gave him the title of Grand Deputy, and gave him countless rewards. Murong Triet became the most powerful figure in the court. The second day after returning to the capital, he came to find me. At that time, I moved out of the Prime Minister's palace and lived in my small makeup shop. He looked at me, his eyes complicated. "She did Tham Tong An?" "Yes." I don't deny it. "She took action faster than I thought." "Isn't that the same for Marquis?" I poured him a cup of tea. "The war in Bac Canh ended faster than I imagined." We looked at each other and smiled. Everything doesn't need to be said out loud. "What are your plans next?" He asked. "I don't know." I shook my head. "The enemy has been avenged, the road ahead is still unclear, I still haven't figured it out." I'm telling the truth. Living a new life, my entire motivation comes from revenge. Now, the enemies were falling one by one. I suddenly felt a bit empty. "Then... marry me." He suddenly opened his mouth. My hand holding the cup of tea stopped. I looked up at him, thinking I heard him wrong. "What did Marquis just say?" "I said, marry me." Murong Triet looked at me, his eyes serious as ever. "Tham Thanh Nguyet, a woman like you should not be buried in the middle of the street." "Marry me, become my wife Tran Quoc Cong, this world will let you run wild." I looked at him, I had to admit, I was a little touched. Murong Triet is the only person in this world who understands me. He is strong, intelligent, ambitious, we are the same type of person. Being with him will probably not be a bad choice. But... I put my hand on my stomach. That place is flat. A bitter smile appeared on my face. "Master, perhaps you still don't know. I... can no longer have children." In my previous life, in my room, I had a miscarriage. That miscarriage damaged my body. In this life, although I have been resurrected, that ruined body has also returned with me. I no longer have the qualifications to be a mother. The Northern Marquis Town Palace cannot have a mother who cannot give birth. Murong Triet was stunned. Maybe he didn't expect me to say such words. He looked at me, a trace of pain flashed in his eyes. "I don't care." He said. "The Murong Triet I married is the person Tham Thanh Nguyet. Not a tool to continue the family line." My heart trembled violently. Tears suddenly fell. Two lifetimes ago. This is the first time someone said such words to me. I looked at him, crying until I couldn't make a sound. He walked over and gently hugged me. His arms were very warm, carrying a bit of the scent of fire and smoke of someone who had just returned from battle. But it makes me feel extremely reassured. "Tham Thanh Nguyet." He leaned next to my ear and spoke softly. "It's over, it's over." "From now on, there's me." I buried myself in his arms and burst into tears. Cry out all the humiliation, all the unwillingness, all the suffering of both lives. After that crying. It is a new life. 28 In the end, I still married Murong Triet. There were no ten miles of red decorations, no guests filling the hall. There is only a simple ceremony and a promise from both parties. I became Mrs. Tran Quoc Cong. People praise and criticize us differently. Some people say that I have a deep heart, I'm an unlucky woman. Some people also say that I am intelligent and determined, courageous and cunning, and a noble woman.
