Xu Tianchu came to Luodu not only wanting to find a rich wife, but also to get some exercise and choose a small official position. He took the exam for several years but couldn't pass, so he had to take the recommendation route. Originally thinking that marrying Xiao Jin Yue and becoming the son-in-law of the Prime Minister would bring him both power and wealth, who knew it would offend a prince instead.

  Xu Tianchu was so frightened that he returned to the Prime Minister's mansion and didn't dare stay for even a day. Ignoring his physical pain, he packed up his things and prepared to return to his hometown in Jiao Dong. However, Xiao Furen found out about this and brought people to intercept him.

  "What are you doing? Didn't we agree on everything? Now that things are going well, why do you want to leave?"

  Because the fists all hit his body, not his face, Xu Tianchu was in agony, but without lifting up his clothes, he couldn't see any wounds, so Mrs. Xiao didn't understand what was going on and just thought that this nephew was really useless. If it weren't for her natal family only having one younger brother who had only given birth to this one son, she wouldn't have bothered to lift a finger to help him.

  Xu Tianchu was in pain all over his body. At this moment, he also had grievances against Xiao Furen, feeling that she had wronged him and made him suffer. Upon hearing her words, he shouted: "Are you not leaving? Am I waiting for death here? My whole body is covered in wounds!"

  Xiao's wife was indignant and shouted: "What injury? Tell me clearly what happened, did someone beat you up? How dare they! In the capital of Luoyang, under the emperor's feet, who would dare to do such an evil thing? Is there still no law?"

  Xu Tianchu: "......" The one who hit me is the son of the king's law.

  Xiao's wife: "Is it that cheap woman Xiao Jin Yue who did this? Tell me, Lord Xiang will surely give you justice!"

  Xu Tianchu's eyes showed fear: "It wasn't her, don't talk nonsense, I don't know anything, don't ask me! I'm really leaving!" He dared to say these things, perhaps King Yun knew and sent someone to beat him or even kill him. How could a small person like him fight against the likes of Tianying's nobility?

  It's really frustrating to talk about this, although Xu Tianchu didn't clarify things with Mrs. Xiao, when he went to bid farewell to his friends, he couldn't help but vent his grievances and complained a few sentences to several of them.

  After he left Ludou, rumors began to circulate that King Yu had a lingering affection for his former queen, Xiangru, and was secretly obstructing her remarriage. He even spread the word that whoever dared to marry Xiao Jin Yue would be stealing someone from him.

  Xiao's wife heard the rumor and realized that her nephew's sudden departure was because he said he had been beaten by Yu Wang. But since Yu Wang didn't dislike Xiao Jin Yue, why would he do such a thing?

  Xiang Guo was also puzzled, and he felt that the king's mind was really unpredictable. He wanted to discuss "The Female Lead and Male Supporting Character" with more like-minded people, "Popular Web Novels" or chat with more book friends about their favorite books.
