An Qien's attitude was firm and there was no room for maneuver.
Qiao Jianghong looked at her in shock with his gloomy eyes. He thought that she was deeply in love with him and was generous and sensible. No matter how many women he had around him, she would stay with him unswervingly.
He was wrong.
Big mistake.
It was so wrong. She didn't argue with him, she was silent, and she wanted to break up with him as soon as she spoke!
Qiao Jianghong couldn't accept it, and his voice was nervous and trembling: "Qi'en, I won't take concubines anymore. I will pay attention to the rules. If I don't get along, you will always be my wife."
An Qi'en didn't look at him, his face was indifferent, as firm as a rock!
An Shi'an said: "Our An family's attitude is to reconcile and divorce! Your Majesty has granted marriage and divorce. My father and I will explain the reasons to your Majesty."
Mrs. Liu panicked and fidgeted: "It's not about reconciliation now, it's about this bitch being the daughter of King Taifeng."
An Qien: "Whoever she is has nothing to do with the An family. Your Majesty is wise and will not implicate innocent people. She was brought back by the Crown Prince. Everyone only learned about her identity today. The Hou Mansion and I have decided to reconcile. The life and death of the Hou Mansion Of course it’s not my business.”
Although Mrs. Qiao was panicking, she was mature and prudent. She said thoughtfully: "I think you are extremely selfish now. You have forgotten what your father experienced four years ago. Why did your brother win the election this year at such an old age? What are you doing for You yourself, abandoning the fate of your family and disregarding it, are you right to uphold your ancestors?"
An Qien's eyes flashed, Mrs. Qiao took advantage of her weakness, and said excitedly: "If I hadn't been for them, why would I have waited until now?"
Qiao Jianghong was shocked again. She had already thought of leaving?
When did it start? Was it when he was half-dead, or when Shen Shuli entered the house?
He said: "You are not an ordinary woman. You know that if this matter comes to His Majesty, both families will end badly. Qi En, you have to take the overall situation into consideration!"
An Shian: "The An Mansion cannot take into account the overall situation of the Hou Mansion. No matter how much we talk about this, there will be no objection!"
After all, this is a matter of the Hou Mansion, and it is the Hou Mansion that bears the majority of the responsibility. Mrs. Qiao continued to analyze steadily: "I understand your mood, and when you think about it, even the Hou Mansion is ignorant of this matter. You don't need to tell His Majesty about this matter. I, the old lady, will tell His Majesty myself, but don’t even think about the matter of reconciliation!”
Liu: "Mother."
Qiao Jianghong: "Grandma!"
The two of them stopped in unison excitedly!
Mrs. Qiao had no choice but to do this. Rather than His Majesty finding out from others that Shen Shuli was the daughter of King Taifeng, it would be better for her to take the initiative to plead guilty. They were not aware of it in the first place!
The people of Anfu are determined to make peace with each other, so the Houfu has no choice but to take this step to block the situation.
Shen Shuli never expected that they would all be in ruins!
This is really not afraid of death!
She looked panicked and pretended to be calm and proud: "You are going to die, because you don't know how many people my father has died!"
Mrs. Qiao looked gloomy: "Take me down here and clean up a good meal!"
Now that the matter has come to this, Anfu is unwilling to back down, so she can only choose the lesser of the two powers!
The two women dragged Shen Shuli down. Shen Shuli's abacus failed and she yelled frantically: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, you can't touch me... Do you really not want to live?"
Shen Shuli was dragged far away, and her voice became smaller and smaller.
Mrs. Qiao had a stern face. People in An's house were unkind, so she didn't need to be nice.
"Your Majesty has made your own decision on the matter of reconciliation between the in-laws. There are still distinguished guests in the banquet hall, so I will accompany you soon!"
The implication is obvious, if you want to make a scene, go ahead. Anyway, their mansion is already like this. A dead pig is not afraid of boiling water!
...
An Qien took her mother's family back to her yard, while Qiao Jianghong's family went to entertain the guests.
Many distinguished guests complained about the Hou Mansion, and their own family members did not come out to entertain them on this occasion.
After Qiao Jianghong came out, he smiled one by one and found excuses to lighten the atmosphere.
Qiao Jiangwan realized that something was wrong. She had already finished the meal when she saw Qiao Jianghong popping up.
She pulled Qiao Jianghong to a deserted corner and asked, "What happened? I see my mother and grandmother don't look very good. No one is greeting the guests outside. What is Qi En doing!"
Qiao Jianghong had a sullen face and told An Qien about the divorce.
Qiao Jiangwan was shocked, what! She still dares to mention reconciliation!
She has nothing to do and is a concubine, and she is still arrogant and arrogant. If she becomes a sister-in-law, she will not be able to do it!
Qiao Jiangwan was furious. After saying a few words to Qiao Jianghong, he immediately went to An Qien's yard without inviting him.
An Qi'en was telling An Hui Nuan what had just happened.
An Weinuan held her hand and said with worry: "No wonder, your mother-in-law and grandmother said outside that you suddenly felt unwell, so they didn't go to the banquet to entertain you. Qi'en, you are mistakenly afraid. My sister is rich, and Li Later, my sister will buy you a house, and if you go to the temple, my sister will provide money to build the temple. That bitch actually dares to harm you, and you will not be able to survive this life."
An Qi'en felt warm in his heart and blamed himself: "I am afraid that my family will not be at peace if I make a fuss, and I will be criticized by my clan members."
Jiang comforted her: "Don't think like that. It's the Hou Mansion that is sorry for you. If you worry about what others think, your life will be tiring. Don't be afraid of involving your mother's family. Since you are the daughter of the An family, the An family must protect you." You, this is your responsibility and your obligation."
An Qi'en was quite surprised. They all disagreed with her reconciliation before, so why did they all support her?
And the current situation is even more complicated, involving Shen Shuli's life experience!
An Zhengyuan's voice was a little heavy and he said: "There is no turning back when you shoot your bow. Tomorrow you will go to His Majesty with your father. Whether it succeeds or not depends on His will."
"Yes, father." An Qien responded respectfully.
After a few words of advice from her parents, An Qi'en sent them away, but An Weinuan didn't leave. She wanted to stay longer and talk to An Qi'en.
As soon as he arrived at the door of Qiu Shui Residence, he saw Qiao Jiangwan who came to ask questions with a bad look on his face.
An Qi'en said hello in a normal tone: "Auntie is here."
Qiao Jiangwan forced a smile: "Mother said you were feeling unwell, so I came over to take a look."
After saying this, she and An Weinuan greeted each other.
An Qien invited her to sit down in the room, and the maid took tea and cut water and stepped back outside to wait.
After chatting for a while, Qiao Jiangwan looked like he was trying to persuade An Qien with good intentions: "How can you live a life without ashes at the bottom of the pot? Things will be over if you just turn a blind eye. Besides, you still have nothing to worry about." When you go out, if you don’t think about others, you have to think about yourself.”
An Weinuan immediately lost her temper: "Sister, I can bear it. I've been here for a few years without having anything to do, but the situation is different. If I don't know how to persuade others, just drink tea."
Qiao Jiangwan's face turned ugly. Anhui was so warm and airy! It was all staged. She took a sip of tea and left without saying a few words...
After seeing off all the guests, it was already evening, and Mrs. Qiao could not catch her breath for a moment.
He took the carriage directly to the palace gate and knelt down!
