Translator: 549690339
In order to please Lin Zizi, the Emperor schemed for him to marry her daughter. Now, he wants him to divorce Jiang Ning for Lin Zizi’s sake.
What is the meaning of this?
What does he consider him and Jiang Ning to be?
Two playthings that he can manipulate in his hand?
Anger rose in Li Hongyuan’s heart.
Concubine Jin glanced at her son and said, “This palace had told you before, since you’ve married her, whether you like her or not, don’t be too excessive. A cornered dog would still jump over the wall, let alone a living person. Now, it is necessary to get a divorce. It can also be considered as fulfilling your wish. After all, you don’t like Jiang Ning.”
“Son does not want a divorce.”
“Huh?” Concubine Jin looked at him and couldn’t help but laugh. “What’s the matter? Have you really fallen in love with that girl?”
“Can a son not like a woman?” Li Hongyuan’s tone was cold.
“That’s true. You really are worthy of being Emperor Father’s most beloved son. He likes Lin Zizi, and you like Lin Zizi’s daughter. Who else should inherit the Imperial Throne?”
“Concubine mother, watch your words!”
“Aren’t you also dreaming of the Imperial Throne? Which one of you princes doesn’t want it? You dare to do it, but you don’t dare to say it.”
“Concubine mother, we are talking about the matter of divorce now.”
“Previously, you made a scene about wanting a divorce. Now that she really wants to divorce you, you are reluctant. This is what you deserve.”
Li Hongyuan didn’t say anything.
He just came to inquire about the news, and he didn’t expect Concubine Jin to help.
Given her temperament, she wouldn’t help either.
He stood up: “Concubine mother, rest well. Your son is leaving.”
Concubine Jin looked at him: “What do you intend to do about this matter?”
“Father Emperor’s command, son will naturally obey.”
“Indeed, both of you father and son are the same. In order to claim the imperial throne, you can easily give up the woman you like.”
Li Hongyuan said calmly: “Son and father emperor are not the same.”
“What’s the difference?”
“Even if we divorce now, son will eventually get her back.”
“Back then, your Emperor Father also said these words, but in the end, she married Jiang Ruobai just like that. Your Emperor Father can only be filled with regret for the rest of his life.” Concubine Jin said slowly, “Do you believe that after the divorce, Jiang Ning will marry immediately?”
Li Hongyuan’s tone was grim: “Whoever dares to marry her, I will take their life.”
Concubine Jin nodded: “If you can really do this, it would be quite interesting.”
“Son takes his leave.”
Li Hongyuan turned around and left.
Not long after he returned to the Prince of Yu’s residence, he received the Imperial Edict, ordering him and Jiang Ning to divorce. From now on, they can choose their marriage freely and live their own lives.
Li Hongyuan knelt down to listen to the Imperial Edict. He took the Imperial Edict and sent away the eunuch who had delivered the decree.
He stared at the Imperial Edict in his hand for a long time and then casually threw it into the fire basin.
This scared Chashan half to death.
He didn’t care about the heat and hurriedly snatched the Imperial Edict out: “My lord, this is the Imperial Edict! If others find out and tell the Emperor, it will be disastrous!”
Although the Imperial Edict was issued, the Prince of Yu’s residence didn’t send the divorce document to the Jiang Family.
Jiang Ruobai didn’t care. He directly ordered the staff to write two copies of the divorce document and sent them to the Prince of Yu’s residence for his signature.
Li Hongyuan stared at the divorce document, looked at it for a long time, and finally picked up the pen, wrote his own name, and sent a copy back to the Jiang Family.
From then on, this divorce document officially took effect.
Jiang Ning and Li Hongyuan’s marriage ended in divorce.
With the divorce document in hand, Jiang Ning felt extremely upset.
It wasn’t that she couldn’t bear to part with the divorce, but that she missed the two children.
She thought she could be indifferent, but in fact, she missed the two children so much that her heart ached.
Worried about Jiang Ning’s unhappiness, the Jiang Family arranged blind dates for her.
The Jiang Family was not in the mood for this, but they couldn’t help Lin Zizi’s nagging. So, they went to get some fresh air.
Who would have thought, as soon as she sat down, before she even saw the man’s face, she saw Li Hongyuan wrapped in a cloak, holding a baby in one arm and an umbrella in the other hand, walking in from outside..
