Chapter 447: The "Frustrated" Young Marquis in a World of Female Dominance

"I am sorry for breaking off the engagement, young marquis. From now on, I will not be able to see you again."

"Young Marquis, just forget about Shi Mu..."

Nan Xi opened her eyes and saw a thin man in green standing before her. He was holding a handkerchief embroidered with bamboo and sobbing as he covered his eyes.

He looked heartbroken.

That pretentious posture gave Nan Xi goosebumps instantly.

Well, has he encountered the legendary broken engagement?

Isn’t it said that there are great benefits for traveling to this small world? Where are the benefits? Could it be the guy in front of me?

"Jiujiujiu, hurry up and give me the original owner's memories."

Nan Xi closed her eyes slightly, supported her forehead with her hand, and communicated with Mao Tuanzi in her sea of consciousness.

[Okay, host.]

This was a world where women were respected, and women's status was paramount. The original owner, Lu Liluo, was the only legitimate daughter of the Duke of Jinyang, and naturally the future heir apparent.

Wherever he went, people respectfully addressed him as "Young Marquis Lu".

The reason why he is called "Little Marquis" instead of "Little Duke" is because his title will be reduced according to the law. Therefore, he can only be called "Little Marquis".

Even so, it is an extremely noble status. Unfortunately, the original owner is a super love-brained bootlicker.

She and Wei Shimu, the eldest son of the Dali Temple Minister, were betrothed to each other by their fathers when they were young, and they grew up together as childhood sweethearts.

Originally, they were planning to get married as soon as Wei Shimu reached the required age.

But when the wedding date was approaching, Wei Shimu suddenly came to her one day and said that he wanted to cancel the engagement, saying that he was set up and had had physical contact with the second princess at the flower-viewing banquet a few days ago.

In this case, she had no choice but to break off the engagement with him and marry the second princess instead.

This was the scene that Nan Xi was experiencing when she arrived.

The original owner was furious at the time and immediately slammed the table, vowing to find the second princess and the person who framed Wei Shimu to have a clear account.

First, how could her fiancé be taken away by the second princess in such an unclear manner?

Furthermore, the person who framed Wei Shimu was so bold that he didn't even take her, the great Marquis Lu, seriously.

Wei Shimu hugged the original owner tightly, threatening his life and saying that his reputation was ruined.

If she cannot marry the Second Princess, she will die in the future.

Although he was reluctant to part with the original owner, he was determined not to marry her again, otherwise she would be ridiculed by the world. Wei Shimu shed tears and pleaded with the original owner to marry someone else.

But the original owner had a stubborn personality. The more Wei Shimu said this, the more the original owner felt sorry for him, thinking that she had missed out on such a good lord.

From then on, the two of them kept pulling each other, and the original owner gradually embarked on the path of mindless bootlicking and there was no turning back.

But the truth is, the Queen's health has been poor in recent years, and the princesses have been fighting fiercely.

Although the Wei family did not take sides, Wei Shimu was quite ambitious. Because he was the eldest son in the family, his mother, who was the Minister of Justice, always valued him.

Sometimes when discussing current affairs in the mansion, he did not shy away from talking to him.

After a few rounds of discussion, Wei Shimu came to a conclusion. He was unwilling to be just a dandy lady in the future. He felt that with his intelligence and beauty, he could definitely reach the highest position in the Great Qi Kingdom.

Thus, Wei Shimu, after careful investigation, took a liking to the Second Princess. He felt that the Second Princess had the best chance of ascending to the throne in the future, so he personally planned this act.

In this way, even if the second princess cannot ascend to the throne in the future, she will at least be the high and mighty princess consort.

As for the original owner’s fiancée?

In reality, Wei Shimu had always disliked the original owner for being a playboy, but he had been hiding it well. Because the Duke's Mansion still held military power, Wei Shimu had no intention of falling out with the original owner even if the engagement was called off.

At first, he just wanted to play the emotional card so that the original owner would not pursue the matter.

However, even he did not expect the original owner's reaction - that fool not only believed his lies and accepted them all, but also devoted his heart to him from then on.

The problem is that the original owner was just a licker, but he not only licked Wei Shimu himself, but also his wife and children. He is simply a fighting dog among lickers.

For example, because Wei Shimu used some tricks to enter the Second Princess's Palace, his situation was not very good at the beginning.

The Second Princess's Palace already had a principal ruler, so Wei Shimu could only be a concubine. Furthermore, as he was still young, he inevitably faced some neglect and oppression, and he often wrote letters to the original owner to complain.

The original owner focused on cooperation.

When Wei Shimu cried and complained about being bullied by the Second Princess's husband, she took the initiative to help him get rid of the husband. When Wei Shimu became pregnant, she said she was afraid of being framed by the favored concubine in the mansion, so she helped him get rid of the concubines and maids one by one.

In the end, Wei Shimu successfully gave birth to three daughters and was made the legitimate king by the second princess.

But after Wei Shimu became the legitimate emperor, he was worried that the second princess would fail in her bid for the throne, and that he and his three daughters would die. So the original owner helped him frame the first and third princesses...

In the end, the second princess successfully ascended the throne.

The first thing the second princess did after ascending the throne was to sentence the entire Duke's family to death.

The original owner was accused of framing the royal family and disrespecting the emperor, a crime that deserved death. By then, the old Duke had already died of anger from the original owner.

The original owner was a reckless person. Even now, she didn't regret what she had done for Wei Shimu, let alone betray her.

He had no regrets when faced with taking the blame, having his property confiscated, and being beheaded.

After her death, her ghost continued to follow Wei Shimu until she heard with her own ears that Wei Shimu ordered people to throw her body to feed the wolves. She then stood in front of the good body and sneered:

"This guy disgusted me my whole life, and now he's finally dead. It's a good thing he's dead. He caused His Majesty to misunderstand me for so many years."

The servant beside him echoed flatteringly:

"That's what Zhengjun said."

"This guy will probably never know until his death that the evidence of his evil deeds was delivered to Your Majesty by Zhengjun himself."

"This way, His Majesty will never doubt the Lord again. Let's see if those bitches down there dare to talk bad about Lord Lu again."

Wei Shimu glanced at his personal servant and said dissatisfiedly:

"Who made him so evil? Now he has received this result, it can be regarded as his evil deeds being punished. I am just sending him on his way out of kindness!"

Looking at Wei Shimu's disgusted expression, the original owner felt a sudden pain in his soul.

It turned out that her selfless dedication throughout her life had only moved herself. She had always thought that Wei Shimu also had her in his heart.

She thought he had to marry the second princess out of necessity, and it didn't matter if he was rude to her occasionally, she could understand.

Instead, he admired her loyalty to the Second Princess.

She just never knew that Wei Shimu hated her so much.

Then why did he smile to himself when no one was around?

Why did she pass handkerchiefs to me, write those ambiguous letters, and why did she always look at me as if she wanted to say something but couldn't?

Why do I always complain to myself every time I encounter difficulties or something unpleasant happens?

In the end, all he got was this:

"An evil mind will be punished with evil"!

Thinking back to the past, how free and unrestrained was she, Young Marquis Lu? If it weren't for Wei Shimu's step-by-step misleading, how could she have chosen to hang herself on this crooked tree of his, and even angered the old Duke who loved her to death?!

Under great frustration, the original owner's soul was captured by the quick-travel bureau and the two sides made a deal.

After reading the original owner's memories, Nan Xi's lips flickered with sarcasm. She watched Wei Shimu's mouth opening and closing constantly, trying to explain how he had no choice but to persuade the original owner to break off the engagement and marry someone else.

She immediately opened her lips and coldly interrupted Wei Shimu who was still performing hard:

"Okay, I agree to cancel the engagement."
