She loses if she divorces, the reborn mistress only divorces her husband

"Your Highness, do you think I will betray you if I marry you?" Song Qingyan asked softly.

"What do you think?" Chu Tingjue curled the corners of his mouth.

"Even if you don't have this intention, if you choose to marry me, you should know the consequences."

Song Qingyan's red-rouge-painted lips curled slightly, revealing some grievance.

"My Lord, as the saying goes, 'Marry a chicken, follow the chicken; marry a dog, follow the dog.' A woman's husband is her heaven. Since I'm married to you, I'm naturally yours. I will only be loyal to you, not to mention betrayal."

She is beautiful, and even with thick bridal makeup, she still looks radiant and can make men fall in love with her.

But Chu Tingjue felt that she was not as kind as she seemed, so he reached out and pinched her chin, "Song Qingyan, you have a mouth that can talk, but unfortunately..."

He moved closer, "I will not believe a word of your words."

Slowly, tears appeared in Song Qingyan's eyes, and Chu Tingjue immediately let go of her hand.

Just as he was about to leave, Song Qingyan knelt at his feet.

"Your Majesty, I know you don't believe me, but I still have to tell you."

"I hate Concubine Zhong."

Chu Tingjue looked down at her, "Why?"

"Because she just treats me as a chess piece." Song Qingyan looked up, tears streaming down her cheeks.

"After I entered the capital, she arranged for me to marry the eldest son of the Minister of Revenue, Guo Yu. Just because Guo Yu supported Prince Jing, she wanted me to marry him to win him over. She never asked me what I thought."

"And on the day of the Wanshou Festival, after I fell into the lake and was rescued by you, the first thing she wanted to do was to let me go to the temple to become a nun. She even wanted me to die to preserve my reputation, rather than marrying you."

"My mother and I begged her for a long time and kowtowed to her for a long time before she agreed to let me marry you."

"From that moment on, I swore to treat her as my enemy for the rest of my life and never do anything for Chu Tingyu's faction."

She cried very pitifully, with obvious hatred in her eyes.

Chu Tingjue had not expected such twists and turns, so his tone softened a little, "Stop crying, get up."

"Yes." Song Qingyan stood up and pressed the corner of her eyes.

But Chu Tingjue would not completely believe her, "What you said is just your one-sided statement. How can I believe you?"

"I have something for the prince."

Song Qingyan said, taking out a folded piece of paper from her sleeve and handing it over, "Your Majesty, please take a look."

Chu Tingjue took it and unfolded the paper. His expression became more serious as he read it. "Where did you get this information?"

The paper listed the names of several court officials and their evidence.

"Your Highness, I wrote this myself." Song Qingyan said, "These people secretly joined Prince Jing. I overheard Concubine Zhong talking about them in the palace."

"Your Highness, although these people do not hold high positions, they all hold real power. If we eliminate them, we can cut off some of Prince Jing's power."

"If Your Majesty doesn't believe it, you can ask someone to verify it."

Everything she wrote down was true, because it all happened in her dreams in her previous life.

In the previous life, these evidences were discovered by Chu Tingjue and his group, who used them to bring down these people.

She had heard Guo Boyan talk about it when she was at Guo's house and still had an impression of it.

Chu Tingjue looked at her inquiringly, "Why are you giving it to me?"

"Your Majesty, I just said that Concubine Zhong and I are already enemies. You are my husband and my support for the rest of my life. Naturally, I hope that you will get better and better. Only in this way can I live a good life."

She spoke sincerely and her eyes were not even slightly flickering.

Chu Tingjue stared at her for a long time, "It's best if you think so."

In the end, Chu Tingjue did not stay that night.

After he left, Lian Ye came in to help Song Qingyan remove her makeup and also spoke up for her.

"Miss, the prince is going too far. Today is your first day married into the palace. If he doesn't stay, the concubines in the palace will take advantage of the situation and will definitely make things difficult for you."

Song Qingyan was not annoyed, "After all, I am a relative of Concubine Zhong, so it is normal for the prince to be on guard now."

She stared at herself in the mirror and said, "It won't be long before the prince will change his mind, because he will understand my feelings."

Now she only needs to stand by Chu Tingjue wholeheartedly, gain his trust and favor, and give birth to a legitimate son.

Because Chu Tingyu will disappear, Chu Tingjue will be the final winner.

Naturally, she is also the final winner.

At the end of January, the Western Rong took the lead in attacking the northwest border of Sheng Dynasty, and the war between the two countries finally broke out.

This was the first war after Yeqilu became the crown prince. He urgently needed to achieve results to consolidate his position, so he was well prepared and went in with great force.

However, Chu Tingyu led his army to block their attack and won three battles in a row.

Especially in the third war, the Western Rong army was defeated and the Sheng Dynasty won a great victory.

Li Jingwan played an indispensable role in this great victory.

Just like in the previous life, not long after the war started, a snowstorm suddenly hit the northwest and lasted for several days. The imperial team delivering food and fodder was indeed stranded halfway and could not be delivered in time.

Fortunately, Li Jingwan had already bought a large amount of food and asked the Chamber of Commerce to reserve a batch of food in advance, so the food supply was not interrupted.

But the Western Rong army was unaware of this, so Li Jingwan suggested to Chu Tingyu that they make the other side think that the Northwest Army was short of food and morale was low, and take the opportunity to attack.

Anyway, in the previous life, the Western Rong army did just that and almost succeeded.

Chu Tingyu adopted her suggestion and pretended that the Northwest Army had been out of food for three days and was waiting for food and fodder, and that the army was insufficient in combat effectiveness.

Yeqilu was fooled and sent troops to launch a surprise attack, but was surrounded and defeated by the Northwest Army who had ambushed them long ago and fled.

This victory made the people of the Northwest ecstatic. They came out of their homes to celebrate, spontaneously sent food and drink to the Northwest Camp, and tried their best to support the Northwest Army.

Chu Tingyu wrote a memorial to the capital, requesting credit for those who had made contributions in the three wars, and specifically mentioned Li Jingwan's contribution.

Chu Yinlong was very happy with the three consecutive victories. He rewarded everyone mentioned in the report, and especially rewarded Li Jingwan.

In addition to rewarding her with gold, silver and other valuables, she was also granted the title of princess, making her one of the few princesses of a different surname since the founding of the Sheng Dynasty.

At the same time, the emperor also rewarded the Zhenyuan General's Mansion, conferred the title of First-Rank Lady on Yao, allowed Li Langqing to study at the Imperial Academy, and Li Huirou was also rewarded.

As a woman, Li Jingwan was able to bring glory to her mother's family with her own abilities, which was rare, and thus she quickly became a hot topic of discussion in the capital.

The number of people proposing marriage to the General's Mansion suddenly increased, but they were all turned away because Yao was ill and unable to meet guests. The General's Mansion remained as low-key as ever.

Chu Tingyu won three wars in a row, which further enhanced his reputation. Chu Yin rewarded him many times, and the number of ministers in the court who were partial to him increased significantly.

After the morning court session that day, Chu Tingjue held back his anger and only exploded when he returned to the palace. He threw things around in the study, making a loud bang and no one dared to approach.

When the noise inside stopped, the staff member Jiang Micheng knocked on the door, "Your Majesty."

After waiting for a long time, Chu Tingjue finally spoke, "Come in."

He pushed open the door and saw the room was in a mess.
