Chapter 20 — The Lady Refuses to Kiss a Disabled Man, I Choose Him as My Husband

Back in the room, Tieu Bac Da was sitting by the window waiting for me. He heard the entire conversation outside. He held my cold hand, his eyes filled with sadness.

“Is what she said true?” I asked him, "about my mother..."

My mother that year, because she was falsely accused of having an affair with someone else and tainting the harem, her family name was erased and she passed away in depression. This matter has always been a taboo for the To family. It is also the deepest thorn in our hearts. Tieu Bac Da pulled me into his arms and gently patted my back. His voice was extremely determined.

"Her mother was framed by someone."

“And the one who harmed you is the current queen.”

"Back then, her mother's medical skills were unparalleled in the world, and she was highly respected by the Emperor."

"The queen was jealous, and because she was still unable to conceive a dragon, she vented her anger on her mother, who was being favored."

"She colluded with the Thai hospital judge at that time, falsified evidence, and assigned her mother a crime that did not exist."

"In order to preserve the Bach family, your grandfather could only cruelly erase your mother's name."

After hearing all these stories, my body trembled violently because of anger. Queen again. The woman brought her to "Han Cung Huong". He wants to cut off my descendants and destroy my whole life. It turns out that between her and me, there is still a deep blood feud between us from our previous lives.

“I understand.”

I raised my head from his arms and wiped away my tears. My eyes became extremely determined.

"Tomorrow is the day the war in Northern Cuong completely explodes, right?"

He nodded.

"The new marshal that the great prince installed in Northern Cuong has received the signal to gather from the barbarian army."

“Tonight, he will open the Nhan Mon Gate, allowing the Barbarian Iron Cavalry to enter.”

"On the side of the capital, three thousand four soldiers of the great prince are also neatly waiting for orders."

"Just waiting for news of the fall of Bac Cuong to come back, he will use the name of 'thanh quan trac' and forcefully plot a treason."

“What a great combination of inside and outside.”

The corner of my lips curled up into a cold smile carrying murderous intent.

“He thought he had calculated everything without missing anything.”

"But I don't know, the mantis catches the cicadas, and the sparrow is behind."

I took out a small porcelain vase from my chest.

“This is the antidote to the ‘Water-Moon Flower Mirror’.”

"Tomorrow, you will take me to the palace and hand it over to my cousin. My uncle, a famous physician, is currently treating patients in the palace."

"Tell him to find a way and give the Great Prince Concubine a drink."

Tieu Bac Da paused.

“You want to save her?”

"Are not." I shook my head.

“I want to save the Great Prince.”

“I want him, at the most important moment, to recover his sanity.”

“I want him to see with his own eyes how everything he worked so hard to build was destroyed.”

“I want him, in his most conscious state, to experience the most extreme despair.”

"This is the last great gift I give him."

Tieu Bac Da looked at me, the sadness in his eyes gradually turned into appreciation and enjoyment. He squeezed my hand.

“Then tomorrow, together, we will send them all to hell.”

At that moment, Phuc Bo once again ran in with a panicked look on his face. In his hand, he held an urgent secret letter from the palace.

“General, ma'am!”

“News has spread from the palace!”

“The eldest prince's concubine... is in danger drama!”

"The eldest prince, using the reason that the princess needs to be happy, asked His Majesty to grant the marriage, wanting... to accept the eldest lady of the To family, To Cam Tu, as his concubine!"

“Holy edict, it has been given!”

As soon as the holy edict was given, the whole city was in an uproar. No one expected that, in such a tense moment, the Great Prince would still have a cheerful mind. No one expected that the person he wanted to betray was To Cam Tu. The woman had just been abandoned by the Third Prince, her reputation was rotten. This is not like a kiss. Which is more like a humiliation. It is a humiliation for the Su family, for the Third Prince, and also for our general's palace. Everyone thought that the Great Prince was crazy. Only Tieu Bac Da and I know that he is not crazy. He's doing the final probe and the final layout. He wanted to use To Cam Tu's chess piece to create a distraction. Causing everyone to focus their eyes on this mythical marriage. From there, ignore the real thunder attack he is about to launch. At the same time, he is also showing his power to us. He can make To Cam Tu go from a mud puddle to become a royal concubine. It can also cause us to fall from the top to hell.

"As expected, he is still not assured about us."

Tieu Bac Da looked towards the royal palace, his eyes cold.

“He wants to use this marriage to drag the general's palace into the water.”

“If we object, we are openly opposing him.”

“If we accept, then To Cam Tu, after entering the Great Prince's palace, will become the most perfect nail he sticks next to us.”

“What a good calculation.”
