C102 Long-term Vision
Wang Yanran's expression immediately stiffened. Just as she was about to step forward, Wang Yanran pushed her away and said, "Get out of the way, where's my father?"
The servants were still watching from the sidelines. With Wang Yanran's nudge, the lady's face turned ugly. She glared at the servants beside her and said with a smile, "Miss, what's wrong with you?"
"What's wrong? I ask you, where's my father?! "
"He … He hasn't even gone to court yet! "
"Bullshit!" Zhou Qu had returned, how could he not? Tell him to come out! "
"What are you doing?" Prime Minister Wang's angry voice came from behind. Wang Yanran turned around and saw that he was looking at her with anger. His eyes were cold to the extreme.
Wang Yanran paused, and then rushed forward and said, "You all know it, right? You all know that I am the only one who is a fool, right? "
Wang Yanran was very agitated. Prime Minister Wang frowned when he saw it. He glanced at the people beside him and they slowly retreated.
Prime Minister Wang looked at Wang Yanran and said, "What are you talking about?"
"Say what?!" Wang Yanran kept crying as she thought about what happened that morning. She said, "This Zhou Qu was actually married before! Why didn't you tell me about this? "
Although Prime Minister Wang was angry in his heart, he could tell that the emperor still valued Zhou Qu a lot. In fact, it was no wonder that under the current situation where the nation of Yingjia was so weak and cultured, other than this kind of general, the emperor would definitely place importance on his own talent. But even if he did, it didn't mean that he had to make his own daughter suffer such grievances!
Prime Minister Wang was very unwilling to accept this, but since the emperor had already given him face, he naturally had to follow his plan. Now, looking at Wang Yanran's expression, he could only say, "You are really impatient!" So, on the second day of your wedding, did you come to your parents' house making such a ruckus? "
Wang Yanran didn't expect her father to still scold her like this. Just as she was about to cry, Prime Minister Wang already said, "This is Zhou Qu's fault, but in this situation, the emperor values him a lot. Moreover, you don't really like him, and when it's done, the person who will make you empress isn't him!"
After hearing Prime Minister Wang's words, Wang Yanran finally calmed down. Prime Minister Wang looked at her and said sincerely, "My daughter, you have to understand your father's feelings. Only if you become the empress and I become the nation's ruler will you be able to live for a long time!"
Wang Yanran actually understood what her father meant, but when she thought about how angry Lee Wanning was this morning, she said, "I know, but this woman is too arrogant! And Zhou Qu clearly wants to protect her from the others! "
Hearing Wang Yanran's words, Prime Minister Wang started to frown, and then he slowly said, "It's fine, you should suffer for a while. Look at the men in the Capital City, which of them aren't concubines? Even if it wasn't her, it would be someone else in the future. Daughter, you are the person who is going to be the empress, so you should at least be more magnanimous, right? "
When she returned to the General Mansion, she saw Lee Wanning sitting on a chair in a daze. She immediately sneered, and walked forward to say, "Go, pour me a cup of water!"
Hearing that, Lee Wanning did not move, but the servant girl behind Wang Yanran was about to leave, so Wang Yanran said, "What are you rushing for? "As a concubine, you should act like you're a concubine. Pour me a cup of water!"
Lee Wanning finally gave her a look and got up slowly. Wang Yanran was waiting for her when she saw her enter Zhou Qu's room and close the door.
"This woman!"
Wang Yanran was about to step forward when she remembered what her father had told her. If she were to be jealous of him here, she would probably go along with their wishes. Thinking of this, Wang Yanran could only suppress her anger and look at her maidservant, "Hurry up and pour me a cup of water!"
Lee Wanning actually didn't believe Zhou Qu's words that the Emperor would help her.
So what if it was Ann Wen? He's the Emperor's flesh and blood. What's more, I'm nothing in the Emperor's eyes. Yesterday, he had wanted to kill her to stabilize the situation, so how could he treat her so well?
But just like what Zhou Qu said, even if he rushed to Ann Wen's mansion now, he would never admit to what he did. Right now, it could be said that Zhou Qu hated him to the bone and didn't know what he was doing!
Thinking of this, Lee Wanning became even more anxious. But Zhou Bao was still a child after all. No matter how ruthless Ann Wen was, he wouldn't do such a thing, right?
But who could say?
The more Lee Wanning thought about it, the more she couldn't sit still anymore. She stood up and opened the door to find Wang Yanran sitting there, talking to her servant girl.
"This Zhou Qu really doesn't know how to behave himself. This little miss has already been fortunate to have condescended to marry him, but he actually still dared to marry someone else. He really doesn't know how to appreciate favors!" "Wait until I …"
Wang Yanran wanted to say something, but was held back by the servant girl, only then did she realize that she had almost said something incredible. She closed her mouth, but coldly snorted and said, "What's the big deal, when I have that day, I will tear this woman into a thousand pieces!" "Let's see if she can still act so arrogantly in front of me!"
Lee Wanning's brows creased. She initially thought that Wang Yanran's reaction was due to jealousy. But now, it seemed that this woman was secretly beating up Lee Wanning!
Lee Wanning's brows creased as she thought about it. After a moment, she closed the door.
In the evening, when Zhou Qu came back, Lee Wanning told him over dinner, "Tomorrow when you have to go to court, can you bring me along?"
Lee Wanning explained to him, "I want to go look for the princess. I think she should be able to take care of this matter. After all, Ann Wen is her brother, I can't just let Zhou Bao not care about it, right?"
Zhou Qu frowned. After thinking for a long time, he slowly said, "It's not impossible, but do you think that the princess …" Will they help us? "
Lee Wanning was about to say something when she heard someone knocking on the door. Zhou Qu put down his chopsticks and Wang Yanran's servant girl, Jie Er, came in.
Jie Er looked at the two of them and whispered, "General Zhou, my family's Miss wants to invite you over."
Lee Wanning's expression paused for a moment. When she realized that Zhou Qu did not move, she even reached out to push him.
Zhou Qu turned around to look at her. Lee Wanning lowered her head and said, "You should go and take a look. I'm almost done eating."
Zhou Qu didn't really want to go over, but Wang Yanran was already married into his own family. Even if he wanted to be husband and wife with her on the surface, he still needed to put some effort on the surface.
Thinking this way, Zhou Qu could only stand up. Lee Wanning looked at his back and slowly put down her chopsticks.
When Snowy behind saw this, she came forward and asked, "Madam, what's wrong?"
Lee Wanning looked at her and shook her head. "It's fine. Don't call me Madam, the lady in this house …" It's Wang Yanran, isn't it? "
Xiao Xue has been serving others since she was young, and she could tell what Lee Wanning was thinking with a glance. She could also tell who Zhou Qu cared about right now, and she immediately said, "Madam, don't be sad, who doesn't know about the entire General Mansion, who is the person the general is holding in his hands? That Miss Wang is just a person of status. "
Lee Wanning knew what was on Xiaoxue's mind. She just wanted to make him happy. She probably thought that she would be very happy after hearing what Xiao Xue said.
But she was not happy.
In this world, she discovered, her thoughts were being cleansed step by step. If it was before, it would be absolutely impossible to make her stay in this place and share a man with another woman. Although Zhou Qu had promised her that he wouldn't have anything to do with her, wasn't that also a concession?
Moreover, would he be able to leave without hesitation on the day that really happened?
Not necessarily …
Lee Wanning looked at the dishes on the table, but could no longer eat. She called for Snowy to clean up before she had the bathtub brought in for a bath.
When Zhou Qu arrived at Wang Yanran's room, she prepared a table full of dishes for him to eat.
Wang Yanran saw his reaction and said slowly, "I know you like that woman, but I'm your legal wife after all. If you don't want me to do anything to that woman, you'd better treat me well. Today's matter, considering that it's your first time, I don't care about it anymore. If there's a next time, Zhou Qu, see if your life will still end this way?"
Wang Yanran's eyes were filled with undisguised viciousness. Zhou Qu frowned. Wang Yanran snorted and said, "Zhou Qu, don't force me. Otherwise, I can do anything!"
