The Prince Wants to Assassinate Me Every Day

Holding that letter, she pondered for a long time.

After a while, she still decided to facilitate it.

That time, she apparently displeased her grandmother too, her determination even made her grandmother repeatedly disheartened, but her grandmother still did not agree to her request, even though she knelt outside for a whole day and night, she eventually, did not get a single word of agreement from her grandmother; instead, her grandmother told her, if she continued to force like this, her grandmother would die right in front of her.

Facing such a threat, Xie Ruotong dared not be willful anymore.

She sent a letter back to Song Yanqing, stating that marriage matters were decided by their parents and the matchmakers, she was powerless, and she asked him to try accepting it.

Naturally.

Song Yanqing could not possibly accept it.

Knowing that he could not persuade Xie Ruotong, he started struggling against his own parents, started fasting, stopped talking, stopped studying, even threatened not to participate in the imperial examinations anymore, and locked himself in his room every day, not allowing anyone to approach. He used this way to pressure his parents to cancel the marriage, naturally, his parents were also heartbroken for their son, so they visited Xiao Qinghui, sent countless gifts, trying to change the marriage arrangement to Xie Ruilin, only to be ruthlessly rejected by Xiao Qinghui, who even brought out the emperor, saying that if the Song Family continued making unreasonable troubles, she would take it to the emperor, and have the emperor personally arrange the marriage.

Naturally, the Song Family dared not offend the elder princess nor the emperor. Thus, they had to go back and persuade their son to live properly with Xie Ruotong.

Song Yanqing naturally was not willing.

Even if it meant offending the emperor, he was willing to take the risk.

Such an attitude naturally infuriated Song Yanqing's father, who in a fit of rage, disciplined Song Yanqing according to their family law; knowing that Song Yanqing had been obedient since childhood and was the pride of the Song Family, he had never received such treatment, that time the family law almost took his life.

This matter also spread to Xie Mansion, to Xie Ruilin's ears; knowing that Song Yanqing almost lost his life for her, she was deeply distressed, but she also understood that the marriage between Song Yanqing and Xie Ruotong was definitely a settled matter, no one could change it, so she conceived another idea, since she couldn't replace Xie Ruotong to be Song Yanqing's wife, she would marry Song Yanqing as a concubine, even if it demeaned herself, but this was the only way she could think of to still be with Song Yanqing.

She was well aware that her actions would certainly be ridiculed by the world, but she just could not accept him marrying another woman because she liked Song Yanqing; and she knew that Song Yanqing liked her too, even if she was a concubine, Song Yanqing would treat her well. Thus, she could also take revenge on Xie Ruotong; she wanted to let Xie Ruotong know, that she couldn't steal her marriage, couldn't steal her life, she wanted to make Xie Ruotong regret tremendously!

Her bold request initially naturally met with strong opposition from her parents.

She, the second young lady of Duke Mansion, how could she serve as a concubine to someone, this was absolutely not allowed.

However, Xie Ruilin exerted pressure by threatening to die, plus on the Song Family side, even though Song Yanqing was nearly beaten to death, he still clenched his teeth and absolutely refused to marry Xie Ruotong; the two families after deliberation, finally took a step back, allowing Xie Ruilin to marry Song Yanqing as a concubine, which finally made Song Yanqing agree to this marriage, thus able to marry on this day smoothly.

"Miss, you should rest early, tomorrow is your wedding day, the groom will come to pick you up early in the morning, you'll need to wake up before dawn to get dressed." The maid Qiao'er advised.

This marriage arrangement for the elder sister was fraught with setbacks.

Just in a mere month or so, too many things happened.

What was originally a fine marriage arrangement for the elder sister ended up being completely messed up by the second sister, covered in dark clouds.

Even the second sister was to marry as a concubine, it was incomprehensible what she was thinking, a distinguished lady serving as a concubine, if this spreads out, won't people ridicule immensely?!

She always felt that the second sister was doing this deliberately, purposely causing trouble for the elder sister.

It's not that a man cannot have multiple wives and concubines, but with the second sister serving as a concubine, she was clearly being bullied by the elder sister, if this spreads out, who knows how much bad talk there will be about the elder sister in the future.

But in fact, the elder sister also tried many times to reject this marriage, but every time, the grandmother did not agree.

If it weren't for the grandmother also resorting to death threats, the elder sister would have likely defied everything to refuse this marriage, even if it meant ruining her own reputation just to make it happen.
