Chapter 225: Formal Declaration of War

The once majestic Prime Minister was demoted three levels in a row. Li's mother and daughter were quickly dragged down by the strong nanny and slapped hard, causing both of them to scream in agony.

The atmosphere at the table was tense and eerily quiet.

Nan Xingzhi stood up and walked to the foot of the imperial platform despite the meaningful and pitiful looks of all his colleagues. He bent down stiffly to thank him, and then silently raised his head and glanced at the aloof Yuanshi... No, not Yuanshi, But the extremely noble Xuanyuan clan.

The corners of Nan Xingzhi's lips raised in a smile that seemed to be mocking but not mocking.

After being married for more than ten years, he didn't know that his first wife even had a fake surname until after they were divorced and divorced. Is there anyone more failed than him?

Turning around, Li Shi and Nan Jiao had already been slapped in the mouth by the thick nanny. Their cheeks had just become swollen, and their original beauty and beauty could no longer be seen, leaving only ugliness and embarrassment.

Nan Xingzhi looked at them with some disgust. At this moment, all his emotions were numb, and only disgust was left. In the past, he had been made furious by Yuan's anger, and he had also been intoxicated by Li's coquettish style.

Now it seems that he doesn't even have the energy to be angry.

Living to middle age, he has a complete wife, concubines, and children. The fame, fortune, and wealth that he once pursued so hard were once in the palm of his hand, but now he has lost them all again.

Nan Xingzhi thought in confusion, it turned out that he fell from the clouds to hell in just an instant.

Yuan's words seemed to be echoing in her ears, so calm that they were almost indifferent: "In the past, because I liked someone, I gave up the honor of a royal princess incognito, and was willing to marry my husband and raise my children, so as to enjoy a plain and stable life in peace. How can fate play tricks on people? , I don’t have good eyesight, and I fell in love with a ruthless person, so that I wasted more than ten years of my good youth... Fortunately, I woke up not too late, I know how to stop the loss in time, divorce my husband and leave. Da Zhou went back to become the eldest princess of Dongling."

hehe.

What a great statement.

Why did she give up her identity as the eldest princess and stay anonymous to support her husband and raise her children?

If she had told him earlier that she was the eldest princess of Dongling, they would never have reached this point.

He thought she was a merchant woman, and everyone thought she was from a merchant family. As the prime minister of a country, having a wife who was an unworthy merchant woman was originally a shameful thing for him. Shouldn't he dislike it? If she had told him her true identity earlier, why would there be so many problems?

She concealed her identity, but now she put all the blame on him, as if he had committed some unforgivable sin. What was his fault?

Which of the powerful men in the imperial capital does not have three wives and four concubines? Which official's wife is not from a famous family?

Why does he dislike her for being a merchant girl?

How ridiculous.

It was obviously her who concealed her identity first, it was her who made the deviant act of divorcing her husband, making him the laughing stock of the world, it was obviously she who abandoned her husband and daughter, and betrayed their relationship of more than ten years as a couple, she was obviously the one who was in the wrong. ...But just because the daughter she gave birth to married the regent, does she have everything right?

Nan Xingzhi thought coldly, it was just the high power of the regent who supported their mother and daughter. It had nothing to do with right or wrong, but the imperial power could not be violated.

If this happened to the regent, even if he married ten wives and had thirty concubines, who would dare to say anything?

It's just that power oppresses people.

Without saying a word, he led the Li family and their daughter step by step away from the imperial garden, away from all the noise and glory, full of unwillingness and resentment. The crying sounds around him made him more bored, and he said angrily: "Give them all I shut up!"

The voices of mother and daughter Li suddenly stopped and they looked at him in fear and anxiety.

"Trash!" Nan Xingzhi took a breath, with deep disgust in his tone, "Trash who fails to achieve anything and is prone to failure!"

Nan Jiao trembled, her eyes instantly turned red: "Dad..."

Nan Xi, who was sitting on a chair, watched silently as the family of three left, with no emotion on her face.

Perhaps in the eyes of many people, her daughter is also ruthless and has no regard for her father's life or death. She can avoid her father being demoted just by saying a word.

However, why?

Not to mention that what his father did to his mother was unforgivable. Even as a father, he was extremely selfish and incompetent.

Although the emperor was the mastermind behind Rong Yu's death in her previous life, Nan Xingzhi and Gu Qingshu were both accomplices - one was her father, and the other was once her favorite person.

In order to be loyal to the emperor and for their own interests, they teamed up to use her, plot against her, push her into the abyss step by step, and let her kill Rong Yu with her own hands.

This account may not be settled until today.

Those who plotted against them in the previous life all got their retribution one by one. Gu Qingshu died, the emperor lost power, the Queen Mother went crazy, and her father also got the lesson he deserved.

They deserve all this, they are self-inflicted and do not deserve sympathy at all...

"Xi'er, what are you thinking about?" A slender and strong hand covered hers with warmth, pulling Nan Xi back from her lost thoughts. She turned to look at the concern in Rong Yu's eyes, and smiled, " Didn’t think about anything——”

"Prince Regent." Someone in the audience interrupted their conversation. It was Lin Wu from Xiqi, with a slightly angry tone. "This general came all the way from Xiqi to Dazhou. In the words of the Prince Regent, They are considered distinguished guests from afar. Even if Dongling and Dazhou are related by marriage, they cannot be blatantly partial. "

Rong Yu turned to look at him and asked in an indifferent voice, "What do you mean?"

"Today, I was humiliated in front of everyone and lost face. The more I think about it, the more I feel dissatisfied. If I swallow this breath, how can I lead the three armies and command thousands of troops when I return to Xiqi?"

Rong Yu raised his eyebrows slightly: "So, what do you want?"

"I have an unwelcome request, and I hope the regent can agree." Lin Wu said coldly, "Tomorrow I will borrow the inner city training ground. I want to formally challenge Dongling General Chu Hongyi."
