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."

Xiao Nanye Must Be Eliminated

Editor: Dragon Boat Translation

"I must admit, I have indeed spoiled Nanye a bit. But he has never taken undue advantage to do anything outrageous."

"Isn't his behavior outrageous enough already? Are all those tales of his audacity and arrogance untrue?"

Had Emperor Qi Ming not brought it up, things might have been better. But at his words, the Grand Empress Dowager's eyes flashed with anger.

She wanted to reveal that Xiao Nanye was not the late emperor's true son, but she couldn't.

Questioning Xiao Nanye's lineage equated to questioning the previous emperor, an affront to the imperial family. This had to be dealt with discreetly, not publicly.

Emperor Qi Ming couldn't fathom why the Grand Empress Dowager disapproved of Xiao Nanye. He presumed it was out of fear. After a moment of contemplation, he said quietly, "Mother, I've watched Nanye grow up. I trust his character. For my sake, please don't give him a hard time."
