The Princess Consort Has A Lethal Destiny Chapter 612 – Arranged Marriage

Chapter 612: Arranged Marriage

Wen Lancheng did not recognize Pei Wanyue. When he saw that the girl had hit the pillar so violently, he frowned and quickly sent her to the medicine hall.

Fortunately, it was nothing big. It was just a skin wound.

However, the pillar was uneven. If there was an open wound on her head, there would be some scars.

“Uncle Xie, who is this girl?” Wen Lancheng felt weak all over and his eyes were deep in thought.

“She’s the daughter Ms. Lu that I divorced before. A child she had with the man before me.” Xie Niushan was upset.

“I see that you don’t like her very much, but what’s the reason?” Wen Lancheng asked again.

Xie Niushan directly told him about Pei Wanyue stealing and scheming against Xie Qiao. He did not hide anything from him.

Wen Lancheng was very shocked. He did not expect this girl to be so narrow-minded despite her young age.

She had no relations with the Xie family and they were willing to send her to the academy. This was a huge favor, yet she was still so greedy.

“It’s a fact that I was a little rude today. This young lady even rammed into a pillar. There will definitely be many people out there who would say that you and I have forced her to do this. Young Master Xie is now the Crown Prince’s favorite. You guys are father and son…

“I’m just afraid that someone will target you because of this and complain about you to the imperial court. When that time comes, I’m afraid that your newly promoted official position will be taken down again…”

Wen Lancheng thought about it carefully and looked at Pei Wanyue. His brows furrowed even more.

“I’m not afraid of anything! It’s just a lousy official position. Whoever wants to it can take it!” Xie Niushan did not want to be sullied.

“Don’t say that, Uncle Xie. If you don’t think about yourself, shouldn’t you think about Young Master Xie and Young Lady Xie?” Wen Lancheng quickly tried to persuade him.

Now was the best time for the Xie family to advance step by step.

With the relationship between Xie Pinggang and the Crown Prince, many people in the capital wanted to make the Xie family suffer.

“I just don’t like this girl’s character. She didn’t do anything serious, but she did many vicious things. Her skin is thicker than the city walls outside. She didn’t die when she stole earlier and when she was chased out of the academy. Now she wants to kill herself just because you’ve seen her skin?!” Xie Niushan was not a fool. He thought there was something fishy about this matter.

Wen Lancheng thought for a while and said, “You’re right.”

This Young Lady Pei must have wanted to kill herself to threaten him.

However, he did not know if she did it on purpose or not. If she did it on purpose…

There were two more situations. One was that she had plotted against him, and the other was that she had been ordered by someone.

Wen Lancheng’s brain was working fast. Ever since he became the top scorer, he knew that his future was not going to be easy.

He was the person that the Crown Prince had saved.

This matter could be serious.

If it was minor, even if he married Pei Wanyue, his actions would definitely be monitored.

If it was serious, it would mean that… someone would use this matter to create rumors, saying that he and Xie Niushan were in cahoots to humiliate a virtuous woman…

Between him and Xie Niushan, one was the newly appointed top scorer, while the other was a bandit general who had just been promoted. They were already in the limelight.

Furthermore, they had forced this girl to beg for death…

If this matter was made public, even if the Crown Prince were to protect them, the two of them would definitely be punished…

They could kill two birds with one stone.

Thinking of this, Wen Lancheng heaved a sigh of relief and said, “Master Xie, this junior initially wanted to marry Young Lady Xie… Since Young Lady Xie doesn’t have any intentions to do that, I will not pester her anymore. Today, I ruined Young Lady Pei’s innocence. It’s reasonable that I take the responsibility.”

“Responsibility? This girl has such a vicious heart. Should you marry her?!” Xie Niushan was a little upset. “A terrible wife will make three generations suffer!”

“That’s right, but as for the concubine… There’s no need to worry too much. I…” Wen Lancheng paused, “I have a childhood sweetheart in my hometown. We had an arranged marriage when we were young. She said that she would marry me when I became a scholar. I’ll send someone to send her a message and bring her over.”
