Chapter 19
Chapter 19 — The Lady Refuses to Kiss a Disabled Man, I Choose Him as My Husband
But my face instantly turned pale. I smell it. Under the scent of this blood bird's nest, there is also an extremely faint, extremely faint scent hidden.
“Han Cung Huong”.
A kind of aloe vera will not harm life, but will make a woman unable to get pregnant for the rest of her life. This is not the Great Prince's handwriting. But it comes from the deepest part of the harem, the cruelest curse. The emperor was afraid of Tieu Bac Da. The queen wanted to cut off Tieu Bac Da's descendants. They wanted this great god of war to become a goddess with no future. How cruel. I held that bowl of blood feast and looked out the window. God, it's about to change. At that moment, there was a commotion outside the palace gate. Phuc Bo ran in in panic.
“Madam, it's not over!”
“The eldest lady of the To family, To Cam Tu, she… she is kneeling in front of our palace gate.”
“Said… said he wanted to see someone.”
"And she said... she wants to turn to others and confess her crime!"
To Cam Tu knelt on the cold stone steps in front of the general's palace. The golden man in the capital, who was once so high in the sky, receiving all the stars and moons, is now like a bereaved family dog abandoned by people. She wore a simple, washed-to-faded outfit, her hair was dry and yellow, and her face was haggard. That face, once as beautiful as a flower, was now filled with despair and regret. When she saw me step out, it was like she saw the last straw that saved her life. She knelt down and crawled forward, wanting to grab the hem of my dress.
"Sister! Nguyet Kien! Please, save me!"
Her voice was hoarse and mournful. I took a step back, avoiding her hand. I looked down at her from above, with no pity or resentment in my eyes. There is only a cold piece. It's like looking at a stranger who has nothing to do with us.
“What did you come for?” I asked.
“I came carrying thorns to confess my crime!”
As she spoke, she actually took out a branch covered with sharp thorns from behind.
“It was all your fault before!”
"You're blind and can't see clearly, you're bewitched by the devil!"
"Please look at our relationship as daughters of the To family, please forgive me this time!"
She cried until her eyes were filled with tears and runny nose, and she desperately bowed her head before me. His forehead was quickly bruised to the point of bleeding. What a wonderful show of humiliation. If it were before, maybe I would still be soft-hearted. But now, my heart has been tempered as hard as iron.
“To Cam Tu.”
I slowly opened my mouth and called her name.
“Take back this act of yours.”
“The third prince has collapsed, you have lost your support.”
"Father now sees you as an abandoned chess piece. The To family has no place left for you."
“You came to find me, not because you really knew you were wrong.”
“It's because you have no way back.”
“You see the current glory of the general's palace, see my glory, this first-class lady bids her farewell.”
“So you want to use the old trick again, using tears and repentance, in exchange for my pity, to find a way for yourself to live.”
Every word I say is like a sharp blade, peeling off her false disguise. Bringing that despicable thought of hers, naked and exposed to the sunlight. Her crying suddenly stopped. She looked at me in disbelief, as if she had never recognized me. In her eyes, I should always be a weak and silent girl, letting her catch me bully. Not the general's wife with sharp eyes, able to see through people's hearts like now. She opened her mouth, but couldn't say a word.
“You go.”
I said leisurely.
"Seeing as we are still related by blood, I won't make things difficult for you today."
“But this is the last time.”
“From now on, never appear before me again.”
"The door of the general's palace will never be opened for you."
After I finished speaking, I turned around and intended to return to the palace.
“To Nguyet Kien!”
She suddenly screamed, her voice filled with unwillingness and resentment.
“Don't be complacent!”
“Do you think you won?”
“You are nothing more than a pawn in Tieu Bac Ye's hands!”
"He's being nice to you now, just because you still have value to use!"
"Waiting for him to regain military power, waiting for him to hold great power in his hands, the first person he will throw away will be you!"
"Because your mother is a god of sin! In your body flows the blood of a sinner!"
"The Tieu family has been loyal for three generations. They will absolutely not allow a daughter with the blood of a god of sin to become his true wife!"
“You are forever just a joke!”
Her words were like a curse laced with poison. But after listening, I just smiled slightly. I turned around and looked at her twisted face of jealousy.
“Thank you for reminding me, sister.”
“It's just a matter between me and my husband, you don't have to worry about it.”
"You should still think about your own future path, how to go."
“As for my mother…”
My eyes instantly turned cold.
“I will personally reclaim your innocence.”
“And all the people who have hurt you, harmed you.”
“I alone will not forgive.”
I no longer paid attention to her screams, turned around and entered the palace. The big door closed heavily behind me. Keep all the resentment and unwillingness of that woman outside.
