Chapter 481: Unsensible
Seeing the unchanged expression on her face, Zhou Huailing felt even more confident.
He knew it! He knew that the Princess Consort was a modest and elegant lady, which meant that she was a lady who cared about and prioritized the whole situation. Only when the whole situation was settled, would everyone be doing well too.
So without any hesitation, Zhou Huailing said, “What I mean is that Ruxue is going to be the Princess Consort whilst you will be a Princess Concubine instead. There is still one vacancy there.”
The Princess Consort felt that her eyes were getting blurry. Her only hope that she had held a few seconds ago was now broken little by little.
He was… He was making the decision and saying that Gu Ruxue was a blessed woman… When there was no slightest base upon the strange phenomenon.
So without even more thoughts, he asked that woman to take the position of Princess Consort. Whilst she herself… As the real the Princess Consort, she had been in this position with full devotion during the past four years and did not humiliate him at all. She even kept Lord Ling’s Mansion running well.
However, he showed her no affection. She had overestimated Zhou Huailing. She had made a terrible mistake in marrying him! Yes, her father was completely right! She had married the wrong man!
“Qingqing, don’t worry, it is just a title. You are my first Princess Consort and I can guarantee you that when I take the throne, your son will be the heir, what do you think?”
He was worried that the Princess Consort would not be able to accept it, so he made this promise first.
When he took the throne, it would be his decision who to become the heir. So the promise would not be that important at all.
“No!” the Princess Consort replied coldly. “If you want her to be the only Princess Consort, fine, we can get divorced and she can take the position!”
Zhou Huailing was annoyed. What was she thinking about? She kept mentioning getting divorced! Why wouldn’t she care about him at all? He might be Lord Ling with a noble background, yet the King was getting old and he would pass away sooner or later. At that time, if he failed to get the throne, all his efforts would be in vain and no one from the Lord Ling’s Mansion would lead a good life. She was the Princess Consort, how could she be so unsensible!
Zhou Huailing had no interest in pampering her any more.
“Alright then, if you want to get divorced, just do it. You can go to the King in the court!” Zhou Huailing’s gentleness was now all gone. “But I am reminding you here to make a decision after careful consideration! If you are sensible enough, I will still offer you some opportunities and the heir will be your son in the future. If you keep on being unsensible, I won’t promise you a thing!”
Then he flung his sleeves and took off with a furious look on his face.
The Princess Consort’s tears dripped as she was standing on the spot.
It was her fault. She should have listened to her father and should not have considered him a gentle and nice man.
It was her fault. She should have gotten divorced when he wanted to marry an Equal Princess Consort. She should not have backed off, because then she would have to back off on various occasions! She should have kept to her own principles. Why did she break her own principles!?
The Princess Consort wiped her tears and started to walk out of the room.
Shao asked worriedly, “Where are you going?”
