Night of the Divorce! A Proud Lady Was Forced to Marry the Emperor's Uncle

In her previous lifetime, Jiang Peihuan was set up by a jerk and died a terrible death. Not only that but even her entire family was annihilated. After becoming eighteen again, she was still the same proud woman who felt no lesser than any other man. Her fiance didn't want to marry her because he thought she was an embarrassment. He came over to call off the engagement and decided to marry her cousin instead. Everyone laughed at her, but she was pleased with the outcome. "Give me 100,000 taels of gold, and I will agree to it." After the wedding was called off, rumors that she was abandoned by her husband were spread in the capital city. Since she couldn't become a consort in Huainan, it'd be difficult for her to get married to anyone else. To everyone's surprise, a noble lord stepped forward. "What's wrong with marrying her?" The dreams of many young women were shattered, but Jiang Peihuan decisively turned the offer down. He was the jerk's uncle, a member of the royal family. He might seem like a noble person, but he had a cruel disposition in reality. She swore to exact revenge on her enemies from her past life and to protect her family. She wanted nothing to do with the royal family. However, one day, she still ended up becoming the lord's consort who was envied by all. By the time Jiang Peihuan realized what had happened, she fumed at the man who lay next to her. ""Xiao Nanye, did you trick me?"" Lord Xiao Nanye, who had always been decisive in his actions, couldn't help but laugh at the sight of his consort throwing a tantrum. He spoke to her in a soft voice, "Please forgive me. You're the only woman I want in this lifetime."

Asking The Court Officials to Raise Money

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

"Your Highness, how do you plan to deal with this situation? Perhaps, we should report it to the Emperor. Once he understands the situation, he won't blame you."

"Do you really think the Emperor is unaware of the situation here?"

"Are you suggesting the Emperor did this intentionally?"

Xiao Junhao didn't respond, his silence serving as a silent agreement.

The look in his eyes startled Pei Wu.

"How much silver do we have left in the palace treasury?"

After a pause, Xiao Junhao asked Pei Wu, who had been managing the palace affairs for many years. On hearing his question, Pei Wu replied quietly, "Your Highness, at most, we can move around a few tens of thousands of taels."

"Why so little?"

Upon hearing Pei Wu's response, Xiao Junhao frowned instinctively. But after his initial surprise, he remained silent.
