Chapter 3 — Remarry to a Good Husband

4

I try to calm down my anger. The most urgent thing right now is to find my child. I sent someone to find Niem Nhi. The news brings us some peace of mind. Niem Nhi is indeed going out to play with a few other ladies. I was just about to breathe a sigh of relief, but I saw the spy hesitate as if he wanted to speak again.

“Just say it straight.”

The servant replied: "Madam, except for you, the remaining ladies are all dressed extremely splendidly, not like the ladies of a normal family. Some are even princesses. They seem to deliberately bring the lady along to play..." I understood what the servant meant, but the servant did not have the opportunity to finish. Although Niem Nhi is the daughter of the Ta family, her mother is retired and should not be treated like that. While thinking, I saw the invitation sent recently. At the Queen Mother's banquet, all the ladies will attend. The Queen Mother must have known my current identity, yet she still sent an invitation. Then just go. … This is why I stand here, listening to people gossiping behind my back. When I arrived, Tham Trieu Trieu and Ta Duc were already present. Talented men and beautiful women, truly a perfect match. The moment he saw me, Ta Duc's face darkened. I didn't bother paying attention to him, I just sent someone to find Niem Nhi. From the moment I appeared, the gossip around me never stopped.

“She's already retired, what face does she have to come here?”

"Do you want to take this opportunity to find a fool to marry her? Who would want to?"

“Could it be that I impersonated the Ta family to enter here?”

Many disdainful eyes turned towards me. Tham Trieu Trieu looked at me and raised his voice: "Sister Van Tan, are you coming here too?" Her expression was a bit awkward, her tone seemed helpless:

"You didn't even look at Niem Nhi and left, but today you suddenly show up like this, probably in a hurry to find a lover..."

“Today is a special banquet organized by the Queen Mother to welcome the Prince Regent who has just returned from Jiangnan, not where you should go.”

Hearing that, my heart suddenly tightened, and a vague fear arose in my heart. My panicked appearance fell into Tham Trieu Trieu's eyes, making her even more proud. She smiled: "Sister Van Tan, please go home quickly. I will help you take care of the good fate. If you have time, you should care for me a little more." As soon as her words ended, mocking laughter rang out around us. Ta Duc smiled faintly: "She's been abandoned, who else wants to marry her?" It turns out, he doesn't know the difference between retirement and separation. Right at that moment. A man wearing a black dragon robe embroidered with brocade suddenly appeared before everyone's eyes. That person had black hair and a golden crown, bright eyebrows and eyes, and a cold aura that made people not dare to look up. It is the rumored Prince Regent who holds power over the world. The laughter that erupted around the yard suddenly stopped. But I don't know what he saw, suddenly the corner of his lips curled up, his eyes full of laughter. Everyone stood there in shock. The regent killed people like crazy, he had never smiled like that before. No one noticed that my limbs were stiff. I opened my eyes wide, watching him step by step towards me

Don't see Trieu Phung An smiling like that. I don't know what tricks he's planning to correct me behind my back. I felt guilty and quickly turned my eyes away. Niem Nhi's story still has no results. I don't want to follow him back. But between me and Trieu Phung An, we really lack some chemistry. He kept walking straight towards me. I had to bow down and respectfully say:

“A visit to the Royal Family.”

He stopped walking. Withdrawing his smile, his eyes seemed to be covered with a layer of mist, observing me attentively. That look fell on my lips, as if wondering, Why could I say such strange words. The night before I secretly left, I was having a crazy time with him. This person's heart is evil, even in the bedroom. I was tempted by him to call me "good husband", until my voice became hoarse. But turned away, not only ran away, but also pretended not to know him. I didn't do it on purpose. It's just urgent work, and he's often jealous. If I just talk a few more words with another man, he will turn sour. I'm afraid he won't let me see Niem Nhi. Present. The atmosphere suddenly became strangely quiet. So quiet you could hear a pin drop. The person standing next to me held his breath, not daring to raise his head. Tham Trieu Trieu suddenly spoke:

“Your Highness, she is the ex-wife who was abandoned by my husband,

Just an orphan without father or mother, came here just to find a new husband, doesn't understand etiquette, can't get on the table. Please don't be embarrassed because of her." She pretended to defend me, but her words brought me down to the ground. Trieu Phung An slightly raised his eyebrows:

“Come here to find your husband?”

He seems to be very interested in this topic. I couldn't help but tremble slightly. Seeing this, Tham Trieu Trieu became even more proud. She was encouraged and immediately continued:

“Lady Van that year relied on her husband to save her life, so she was able to turn a sparrow into a phoenix and marry into the Ta family.

But her virtue was not worthy and she could not take on the position of Ta family head and mother, so she was kicked out of the door.

"But after all, she is the child's mother. Please, Your Highness, show respect to my husband and I and be generous to her."

Trieu Phung An leisurely replied:

“So what if I still want to punish?”

When he said that, his eyes sparkled, clearly he was seducing me in a crowded place. Unfortunately, Tham Trieu Trieu did not recognize it. Her eyes lit up and she quickly pretended to forgive me. Ta Duc also frowned and said:

“Please raise your highness and strike softly.”

Trieu Phung An shook his head:

“No way.”

The Regent has always been cold and dignified, unable to offend, and has never forgiven anyone easily. This statement was within everyone's expectations, but the tone made the listener feel something was strange. Amidst countless eyes. Trieu Phung An suddenly came closer to me, as if he wanted to hug me. He said smiling

“For her sin, anyone who begs for it is useless.”
