Doomsday Code

Chapter 555 1 slap

Although the princess was angry, her good aristocratic education prevented her from acting like a shrew.

When she reached Xiao Suo, the princess bowed with a smile on her face and said:

"I pay my respects to the prince."

Xiao Suo's eyes were not on her at all. Instead, he looked at the servant with a slap mark on his face.

Then Xiao Suo said to the many guests:

"Everyone, this tour ends here. I have already prepared a banquet in the capital. Please go ahead. I will be here later."

And everyone could see that there was something going on between the couple, especially since Xiao Suo had previously revealed gossip in the court about the princess leaving the palace.

So they all said goodbye one after another.

After most of the people had left, Xiao Suo looked at the princess beside him.

"What are you doing here?"

The princess was not annoyed, but looked at Huidun beside her, pretending to have just discovered something and said:

"Forgive me for my poor eyesight. I didn't see His Royal Highness the Crown Prince just now. I apologize to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince here."

Huidun had little contact with his aunt, and his previous impressions of her were all based on some rumors.

Now it seems that this is indeed as the rumors said.

"Oh, there's no need to be so polite, Auntie. Now that things are done here, I'll take Vivienne back."

Huidun didn't want to argue with her, after all, she was still his aunt.

However, the princess was a little relentless.

"Your Highness, please don't leave so hastily. Didn't the prince say there would be a banquet? If Your Highness leaves right away, outsiders will think it's my fault as your aunt that I've angered Your Highness so much that he'll leave."

Then she looked at Weiweien beside Huidun and said:

"Oh, this must be the legitimate daughter of Marquis Sauron. She is so pretty and lovely."

"Alas, it's a pity that my Melinda is so unlucky that she can't even climb up the social ladder."

Having said this, Huidun's brows furrowed even more tightly. This woman was really being ungrateful at this moment.

What did she mean by this? Was she saying that Huidun was lowly before, or that Huidun was an ungrateful person who abandoned Melinda after becoming the crown prince?

Before Huidun could lose his temper, Vivienne got angry first.

Vivienne is not a traditional woman who lives in seclusion and is bound by etiquette. If it weren't for Huidun's sake, she would have scolded the princess long ago.

And now that she was involving herself, Vivienne naturally couldn't stand it.

"What are you talking about, Aunt Princess? I remember that Aunt Princess hasn't given birth to any children for Uncle Wang yet. So where did this daughter Melinda come from?"

Vivienne's words hit the princess' sore spot. She had been married to Xiao Suo for so many years, but her stomach just didn't show any reaction.

This is also a big reason why Xiao Suo stayed with Melinda's mother during his marriage.

After all, this is a feudal era, and the issue of offspring has always been a big problem in this era.

The marriage between the princess and Xiao Suo was originally a marriage of arrangement, and the two of them did not have a deep relationship. Moreover, after the wedding date was set, Xiao Suo suddenly withdrew, so the princess had even less feelings for him after the marriage.

As time went on without any offspring, Xiao Suo naturally became more and more depressed.

Then he went out traveling and met Melinda's mother, a kind, gentle and beautiful elf.

For the sake of her love, Melinda's mother gave up the purity of an elf and became a fallen elf who fell in love with a human.

Then Xiao Suo brought her to the royal capital to marry her.

What happened next was the usual bloody love drama of a married man. Melinda's mother was persecuted by the princess. Because her strength was greatly weakened during the maternity leave, she was persecuted to death by the princess and her family.

The male protagonist Xiao Suo is not destined to be the protagonist. He has no ability to save the situation and can only save the newly born child.

In order to prevent her from being persecuted, he showed his disgust for the child and found her a marriage that seemed bad but was actually very suitable.

It can be said that if Chen Cheng had not suddenly appeared, Melinda and Huidun would have been together, and with Xiao Suo's wisdom, perhaps the two of them could really have lived their lives supporting each other in Huidun City.

When the princess mentioned Melinda, Xiao Suo couldn't help but think of that kind and gentle elf who had a smile on her face until her death.

"enough."

This was the first time in all these years that Xiao Suo had yelled at the princess.

The princess stared blankly at the man in front of her who had lived with her for decades. When she dealt with that shameless elf, he had never yelled at her like he did today.

After the astonishment came extreme anger.

"Xiao Suo, what do you mean? How dare you yell at me?"

However, Xiao Suo not only yelled at her today, but also slapped her in the face.

A crisp slapping sound was heard, and not only the princess was stunned, but Xiao Suo was also stunned.

Soon, a clear slap mark appeared on the princess' cheek. She covered her face with her hands and cried continuously. Then she just gave him a cold look and left quickly with her people.

Xiao Suo looked at her leaving back and wanted to reach out and call her to stop, but in the end he didn't say it.

Xiao Suo sat on the ground and started crying at this moment.

He is not a brave man and he thinks he is a scumbag.

It was he who killed Melinda's mother, and it was also he who destroyed his marriage with the princess.

Perhaps this political marriage between the two should have been stopped at the beginning, rather than continued for the sake of so-called face.

Huidun looked at Xiao Suo who was crying bitterly. As a junior, he really couldn't say anything.

After Xiao Suo cried for a while, he wiped his tears and looked up at Hui Dun and said:

"I'm sorry to have embarrassed you. Uncle Wang is such a loser."

Huidun did not look down on his uncle Wang at all, but instead felt a little sad for him.

This is the pain of a political marriage.

Then he looked at Vivienne beside him. At least he and Vivienne were truly in love.

And his descendants will no longer have such purely political marriages.

At this moment, Chen Cheng reaffirmed his previous plan. If not for anything else, he must continue the reform for the future happiness of the royal family's marriage.

Huidun pulled Xiao Suo up.

Xiao Suo gave Hui Dun a wry smile, and then he said to Hui Dun:

"Your Highness, I am planning to divorce the princess."

Xiao Suo's words were like a bolt from the blue. Hui Dun didn't expect that Xiao Suo, who had persisted for so long, would say that he wanted to divorce the princess at this time.

"I know you are investigating the Duke's Mansion. Don't be fooled by the princess's usual arrogance. In fact, she is just a foolish woman with no brains.

It was my fault what happened back then. I deceived Ling'er and betrayed my marriage with her.

She was also a brainless person, and was instigated by her aunts, brothers and uncles to make a big mistake.

I killed the group of guys who took direct action back then, and those who instigated it will definitely not get away this time. As for her, just consider it as my apology to Ling'er and Melinda.

You can start with her, but I want to protect her after the divorce."
