Forced to be a third person: I turned around and left the palace to marry a villain

He put his hands in front of his face, not daring to look directly at the murderer, and kept muttering to himself, hoping to attract the attention of the people outside. Little did he know that everyone in the inner court had been sent away by Shangguan Xi. Even if he shouted at the top of his lungs, no one would come to save him.

"Wang Ruixuan, you really disappoint me." Shangguan Xi pointed a musket at him who was curled up and trembling all over.

"I asked Jun Li to go to great lengths to get you into the Crown Prince's Mansion, but you can't even handle a woman. What use are you?"

That's right, he personally brought Wang Ruixuan to the Prince's Mansion, and the old housekeeper in the mansion also took care of him. With a little arrangement, it would be easy to avoid checking the carriage.

He knew that Cao Zhilan was jealous of Si Ruoxin, and that woman was his enemy, so he teamed up with Cao Zhilan, had her men take Si Ruoxin to the cabin in the jungle, and then used that guy to destroy her.

Who let that woman go against him again and again! Of course he had to teach her a lesson.

Besides, looking at the situation today, Shangguan Jin and Jiang Chen seemed to have a conflict because of this woman, so he just took this opportunity to use her to sow discord between the two of them. After all, the two of them had teamed up to cause him a lot of trouble in the past two years.

Alas, the plan was originally perfect, but it was ruined by Wang Ruixuan, that incompetent guy. He couldn't even get the woman who was given to him for free.

What is even more shocking is that Shangguan Xun actually overheard his secret conversation with Cao Zhilan. I really don’t know if that girl has already leaked the whole thing to others.

Not only do they fail to get things done, they also always cause trouble. This is true for Wang Ruixuan and Cao Zhilan.

Shangguan Xi felt extremely annoyed when he thought that Shangguan Xun might expose the conspiracy between him and Cao Zhilan.

Shangguan Xi was so angry that he started beating Wang Ruixuan up.

"Your Highness, you are so careless."

After Shangguan Xi finished venting, Jun Li walked in and saw Wang Ruixuan in a dishevel, with Shangguan Xi's footprints all over his body. A hint of disdain flashed in his eyes.

This guy brought him great shame. After all, when he was in Beiling, this idiot made him wear a big green hat.

Although he had no feelings for Xiao Min, he could not accept that his bride had been taken advantage of by someone else.

"Why did you get in?"

Jun Li interrupted him by barging in without knocking, and Shangguan Xi was a little unhappy.

"Your Highness's footprints are left on him. If you don't clean it up, it may be bad for Your Highness. Although people often die inexplicably in the Inner Court, if the news of the prince's death sentence spreads, those nosy ministers may cause trouble for Your Highness. It's better to be careful and don't let anyone catch you."

After saying that, Jun Li asked someone to take off Wang Ruixuan's clothes and throw them into the fire.

He held down Shangguan Xi's hand holding the pistol, pulled him back, and asked a group of servants to come forward with torture instruments.

"Let's get started. Remember to leave no one alive."

Late at night, bursts of shrill screams were heard from the Inner Court.

"Wang Ruixuan is dead?"

It was not until the next morning that Jiang Xue learned that Wang Ruixuan had been tortured to death.

While having breakfast, the three of them turned serious when they learned the news.

"Is this the Crown Prince's solution?" Si Ruochen sneered, "Even if I didn't see it with my own eyes, I know that the Crown Princess must have been involved. Didn't they say that all participants would be severely punished? Why didn't the Crown Princess receive any punishment at all? Is killing Wang Ruixuan enough to explain it?"

"Shangguan Jin's position as the crown prince was not stable, and there were many conservatives who wanted to pull him down, so he married Cao Zhilan, the legitimate daughter of the Cao family, as the crown princess in order to win over the power of the Cao family. After all, the Cao family still had a lot of say among the conservatives.

It is understandable that he was unwilling to punish Cao Zhilan. As for Wang Ruixuan's death, after all, it involved the reputation of the third princess, so it was not surprising that he let him die in the inner court."

Jiang Xue analyzed it and felt that there was nothing wrong with it.

Jiang Chen shook his head: "Something is wrong. No matter what, he can't let Wang Ruixuan get into trouble."

"Brother, what do you mean by this?"

"Have you ever thought about how Wang Ruixuan could get into Huyin City after being driven out of Beiling? With a reputation like his, ordinary people would not dare to let him into any royal city of any country." Jiang Chen explained.

Jiang Xue also felt something was wrong when she heard this. People who were tattooed and exiled were completely abandoned.

But Wang Ruixuan not only entered Huyin City, but judging by his attire and chubby appearance, he was living a pretty comfortable life.

"Could it be that he has someone protecting him in Hu Ying?" Jiang Xue guessed.

"That's right." Jiang Chen nodded: "And that person is not ordinary. I heard that she is Wang Xiurong, who is particularly favored by the emperor now."

Xiurong Wang...

Jiang Xue frowned: "Wang family of Beiling? But apart from Concubine De, there seems to be no female among the same generation?"

"This Xiurong Wang is actually the illegitimate daughter of Wang Changqing's father. When Mr. Wang was still unmarried, he loved to go to those places of entertainment and fell in love with a girl from the Hong Kong Salon.

Later, the girl got pregnant and wanted to marry into the Wang family with the child, but was rejected by Mr. Wang, who had just married a wife. The girl couldn't continue to work because of her pregnancy, so she used all her savings to redeem herself and left Yujing, and ran to Huyin to give birth to a daughter.

Unfortunately, the girl died of dystocia after giving birth, and her daughter was adopted by a music troupe and became a famous dancer in Huyin. Once, she performed at a royal banquet and was noticed by the Emperor of Beixi, who then made her his favorite concubine.

Jiang Chen told all the stories he knew, which was another sad story of a woman in the world.

"According to what my brother said, Wang Xiurong and Wang Ruixuan should have never met, right?"

One grew up in Beixi, and the other was the son of the Beiling royal family. Although they were of the same clan, their status was very different, and they were not from the same country. Even if Wang Xiurong was a relative of Wang Ruixuan, he was just a blood stranger and it was impossible for him to speak for him.

"After Wang Changqing was dismissed from office, did you notice that he was still active in Beiling?"

When Jiang Chen asked this, Jiang Xue immediately understood.

Indeed, Wang Changqing had not appeared in front of her since then. She had not even seen him when Concubine De died.

"He is now in Huyin City, and has even reunited with Wang Xiurong and his daughter." Jiang Chen sneered at this kind of man.

He abandoned the mother and daughter back then, and now that he sees his illegitimate daughter has gained power, he shamelessly goes to recognize her as his biological mother. He simply wants to use her power to rise again.

This guy didn't treat Wang Xiurong as his daughter at all, he just regarded her as a stepping stone to climb up.

"So that's how it is. It seems that Wang Xiurong is also a very sentimental person." After recognizing his biological father, Wang Ruixuan became a relative of the royal family, and ordinary people did not dare to touch him easily.
