"Yes, but you are involved with Wei Jincheng, why should I still like you?" Wei Tingyu was calm and composed, however, his casual attitude made him look like a devil playing tricks on the world.
He Chujian was very suspicious. Was his love for her all fake? The more she thought about it, the more she felt it was possible. After all, she thought he only liked her because his brothers and sisters and cousins were not allowed to get close to him. Only she could. Even so, the number of times was still limited. Moreover, she could not touch his body every time. No, she could not touch any part of his clothes.
Just because of that little difference, she thinks she is special
And the reason why Wei Jincheng came to him was just because he had a "good relationship" with Wei Tingyu. At this moment, it seemed as if the fog had been cleared, "Did you do it on purpose? You did it on purpose... You did it on purpose!"
Wei Tingyu smiled slightly, his eyes clearly showing: Oh, I finally found out. "What do you mean by intentional or not? Cousin, can you explain it more clearly? I can help you solve the problem."
He Chujian used to think that even though Brother Tingyu was a little cold and distant, he was actually a very gentle person at heart. However, she only now realized that she was totally wrong. This man is simply a scheming evil ghost!
"You let Wei Jincheng mistakenly believe that you were good to me, which made him come to me. It's you, it's all because of you—" He Chujian yelled hysterically. She used to be so delicate and timid, but now she looked like a crazy woman.
However, in this way, some things have been acknowledged.
She has to admit it, because it is a fact that she is not a virgin. If she doesn't admit it, then later on, her innocence can be pinned on someone else, and she won't gain anything, and will be covered in dirty water and her reputation will be ruined.
There are some things that Wei Tingyu would not say easily without evidence. Sometimes, Wei Tingyu even thinks that Wei Jincheng is too stupid for showing off in front of him.
"What are you talking about? You always go to Pingyang Marquis's Mansion because you like this family. Don't you know that Wei Jincheng likes to snatch everything from me, so you come to me to show your courtesy? Everyone else keeps away from me, but you foolishly come up to me. Self-confidence is a good thing. You are so conceited that you think others are fools and don't know your calculations. Sigh, to be honest, it's rare to see a naive little fool like you who thinks he can play with and applaud others." Wei Tingyu leaned back lazily, looking relaxed and casual. "You may be stupid, but you are my cousin after all. As a cousin, of course I have to fulfill your wish. Look, you have achieved what you wanted. Don't worry, Wei Jincheng dare not refuse to marry you. Otherwise, if you beg me, maybe I can let you become his legal wife directly."
When the crazy He Chujian heard the last part, he couldn't help but be stunned...
The He family's uncle and aunt, who originally had ferocious looks on their faces, couldn't help but change their eyes. Just like what Wei Tingyu said, what they were aiming for was a marquis' family. Even though Wei Tingyu has the title of prince now, Wei Jincheng will be the Marquis of Pingyang in the future. If she marries Wei Jincheng, wouldn't she be the marquis' wife at first sight
Aunt Zhou finally couldn't sit still any longer, "Sir, don't talk nonsense."
Wei Tingyu turned his head and looked over. "Who are you talking to? You have the right to interrupt a concubine?"
"Asshole!" Pingyang Hou pointed at Wei Tingyu angrily, "You little bastard, try saying that again?"
"I am a little beast, and you are an old beast. Aunt is aunt, and concubine is concubine. What can't be said? Not to mention that I can say it now, I can also say it in front of the emperor." Wei Tingyu smiled unchanged, "I am a dying man, who should I be afraid of?"
Pingyang Hou covered his chest with his hands, looking as if he was about to have a heart attack. "Evil creature, evil creature..."
Aunt Zhou hurriedly patted his chest, "Marquis, Marquis, calm down, calm down..." She turned to look at Wei Tingyu, her eyes seemed to be filled with poison. She opened her mouth, but swallowed the words back. Now any word could be a handle. She was a concubine and had to be polite in front of the legitimate children. Wei Tingyu didn't care about it before. She was used to being majestic in the Marquis of Pingyang's mansion, but now she was slapped hard. The facts told her that a concubine is a concubine, and she would never be able to turn over in terms of status. If the Marquis of Pingyang was going to have a heart attack, she would almost vomit blood.
"Brother Tingyu..."
"Shut up and stop calling me that. Stop being disgusting."
He Chujian's chest rose and fell, and he clenched his fists. "Prince Wei, are you serious? Can you really let me marry Wei Jincheng?"
"Bitch, don't even think about it!" Wei Jincheng came in angrily, walked up to He Chujian and slapped her in the face.
He Chujian staggered and almost fell. Seeing their daughter being beaten, He's uncle and aunt were furious. They rushed up and started beating Wei Jincheng. Naturally, the people here couldn't stand watching Wei Jincheng being beaten, so they also rushed up and started fighting.
Wen Xin was very tactful and took his master aside to ensure that he would not be affected.
The wife of Marquis Pingyang was still sitting quietly. When she saw the chaotic scene, she was still able to twist her Buddhist beads and chant. At one moment, she stopped and looked at her son, "Tingyu, what's wrong with you today?" This was totally not her son's style.
Wei Tingyu looked at her mother and said, "No, I'm fine."
However, these words were like adding fuel to the fire, and made Lady Pingyang Hou feel something strange. Her son was not well, very well, so he was so abnormal. She glanced at Wen Xin, hoping that he could give her an answer. Unfortunately, this big guy was a blockhead, and he didn't even raise his eyelids.
The wife of Marquis Pingyang sighed helplessly.
The situation over there has already been opened, but to be honest, in such a grand marquis's mansion, there are just as many scoundrels and shrews as on the street. It's really eye-opening. If this gets out, I don't know how people will laugh at me.
"You evil creature, this is all your fault, and you still have the nerve to laugh?" Pingyang Hou was furious, as if he could no longer endure it. He took a few steps forward and stretched out his hand to hit Wei Tingyu.
However, he was grabbed by Wen Wenxin in mid-air. He was no longer as dull as before, and stared at Pingyang Hou with murderous eyes.
Marquis Pingyang shuddered when he was looked at, and his arms felt like they were about to be crushed.
"Wenxin."
Wei Tingyu spoke in a calm voice, Wen Xin let him go and returned to his original position. The fierce aura on his body disappeared instantly, and he looked honest and dull, stupid and foolish.
"Marquis Pingyang, have you forgotten what I told you last time?" Wei Tingyu tapped his face. "Come on, hit me here. If you go too easy, I won't agree. Come on, hit me. Hurry up. Why don't you do it?"
Marquis Pingyang was furious. He really wanted to beat this evil son to death. But he didn't dare. Wei Tingyu had told him last time that if he dared to fight him, the things that had been used to deprive Marquis Pingyang of his title would be placed on the emperor's desk by tomorrow. Marquis Pingyang really didn't dare to stop him. His son was completely unpredictable. He looked normal, but in fact, he was very abnormal.
"You don't dare to fight? Then stay away. I don't like strangers getting so close to me."
"You bastard, I'm an irrelevant person?" Since he didn't dare to tackle the problem head-on, he could only start from the minor details.
Wei Tingyu glanced at him indifferently, as if he was looking at a mentally retarded person, which irritated Pingyang Hou greatly.
Wei Tingyu was in a really bad mood at the moment and didn't want to waste his energy dealing with them. However, he probably couldn't get away until the problem was solved. He looked outside the door and said, "If my sister-in-law wants to say something, you might as well come in." He actually arrived earlier than Wei Jincheng.
Wei Jincheng's wife, Yu, is the daughter of the current Chief Justice of the Dali Temple, and is naturally a proper lady from a noble family.
Although her father was only a third-rank official, to be honest, their family really looked down on Wei Jincheng. However, the matchmaker was Princess Dun, so she was actually half-forced to marry into the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion. In the Pingyang Marquis's Mansion, a concubine was in charge, neither legitimate nor illegitimate, and she was asked to set the rules. It was a mess, and it was disgusting to look at. So after she became pregnant, Wei Jincheng could do whatever she wanted. She was another invisible person in this family.
"Uncle, do you want me to get divorced?" Yu came in and spoke calmly.
"If you want to divorce, I can let you go." Wei Tingyu naturally knew what kind of life this brother-in-law lived in this family. Instead of just watching this mess, it would be better for her to get out of here as soon as possible.
Upon hearing this, Yu frowned slightly and hesitated for a rare moment.
Seeing this, Wei Jincheng couldn't help but panic, "Yu, how dare you!" It was obvious that he was just a coward.
"If you are worried about the child, I can let you take the child away." Wei Tingyu spoke again.
Wei Tingyu felt that his days were numbered and it was about time to start settling accounts with the Pingyang Marquis Mansion. If he delayed for too long, if something bad happened to him suddenly, things might not be completed.
Yu's face was obviously a little moved. If she could take her son away, she would naturally be eager to leave this damn place, but...
"You evil son, shut up! How dare you say another word? I don't want the title of Marquis of Pingyang anymore. Today I must beat you to death. - Yu, you must stop having those inappropriate thoughts." Incense and bloodline can be said to be a taboo for many people, and Marquis of Pingyang is no exception.
Wei Tingyu couldn't help it, without even moving his eyelids.
Yu sighed lightly and said with some regret, "Thank you, uncle, it's not necessary."
"You don't need to care about what other people think, brother and sister. If I say yes, then it's okay."
Pingyang Hou could no longer bear it and wanted to attack Wei Tingyu, but was caught by Wen Xin like a chicken. Not to mention hitting him, his struggle was really ridiculous.
There was a strange look in Yu's eyes. Although she had almost no contact with this uncle, she always had a sense of unfathomable strangeness. In fact, it was true. He was not conspicuous before and no one noticed it. But today, he pinched everyone so that they could not move. He swept across his legs vaguely, and then thought that he would not live long, and she felt regretful. Pingyang Hou probably didn't know what he had lost. If it weren't for these messy things, if this uncle's health was good, and Pingyang Hou treated him well, this marquis's mansion would sooner or later restore its original glory and make it worthy of the name, with the same honor as Pingjin Marquis's mansion.
Yu shook her head. "Really, there's no need. Even if we divorce, it will affect the reputation of my family. However, if she is a co-wife, it's not impossible."
"Second wife?" Wei Tingyu thought for a moment, "It has been many years since the Qi Dynasty has had a second wife."
Because of the importance attached to the hierarchy between legitimate and illegitimate children, the role of the second wife is a legacy from the previous dynasty. It has not been officially abolished, but it has gradually become almost abolished. Especially since the current emperor attaches great importance to legitimate and illegitimate children, no one would create a second wife who is there just to slap the wife in the face.
"Maybe it's just that uncle doesn't know. Just because there isn't one doesn't mean there can't be one. If everything is settled, I can personally take charge of this matter and hire Miss He back. The impact will naturally be minimized."
So he didn't care about the beauties around Wei Jincheng at all. What would it matter if he had more concubines? The title of concubine sounds good, but in essence, she is still a concubine, just one level higher than the noble concubine.
Wei Tingyu looked at He Chujian, "So, what does my cousin think? Co-wife, do you agree?"
"What if I don't agree?" He Chujian said with his fists clenched, but his words were not full of confidence, but rather cautious and tentative. Seeing Wei Tingyu raised his chilling smile again, "I agree, and I promise that I won't argue with Sister Yu after I get married." Anyone with an eye can see that this cousin is supporting Yu. She would have to be crazy to argue with Yu, who didn't take Wei Jincheng seriously. Of course, this is only for now. Once this cousin dies, it will be another matter.
"That's it," Wei Tingyu said. "Marquis Pingyang, Aunt Zhou, and my uncle and aunt, you should all get ready. A concubine is not as important as a principal wife. There are not many rules. Get married as soon as possible."
"I don't agree! Wei Tingyu! Who let you make the decision? Did you ask me? Did your parents agree? Who do you think you are? A bitch like He Chujian who can be summoned at will and dismissed at will is not even as good as the girls in the brothel. At least I have to pay to sleep with those girls. How dare this kind of slut enter the Pingyang Marquis' Mansion and be my co-wife? How shameless!" Wei Jincheng roared.
Wei Tingyu laughed suddenly again, "You said such bad things about her, but your aunt wants to marry her to me as my legitimate wife. Does this mean that I, the eldest son of the Marquis's family, am not as good as you, a son born out of wedlock?"
-Of course not! Wei Jincheng almost blurted out the words, but swallowed them back. Some words can be thought in the heart, and can be said in private, but it is absolutely not okay to say them in person.
Wei Tingyu retracted his gaze and looked at Pingyang Hou, whose face was as red as the bottom of a pot, "Does Dad agree?"
There was Wen Xin standing in front of Marquis Pingyang, his face was as black as the bottom of a pot, "I agree, of course I agree, you are my good son, how can I, as your father, disagree with your decision, don't worry, I will do it properly!"
