Quick Transmigration: The Villainous Female Supporting Character Became the Male Lead's Beloved

Chapter 240 The Infamous Young Lady 28

The original owner of this body did not live to this point in her previous life, so she was unaware of some unknown plot details.

For example, the next day, she knelt on the ground with the entire Ni family to receive the imperial decree with a blank face, which was quite inexplicable.

The eunuch in front was still shouting in a high-pitched, forceful voice, "By the Mandate of Heaven, the Emperor decrees..."

She only heard the gist of what was left.

In the original book, the envoy wanted He Yingyue to marry into the royal family, but this was met with unanimous opposition from the royal family and the general's mansion. In the end, having no other choice, they sent a beautiful illegitimate daughter instead.

Unexpectedly, due to the butterfly effect, it ended up being her.

She knew what the emperor was thinking. This was like sending a student to another class. Naturally, the teacher was reluctant to give up the good student and would deal with the "tumor" first.

The eunuch finally finished his last line, and Zhuzhu, her face ashen, stepped forward to receive the imperial edict.

Ni Qing didn't have any particular thoughts, which might not be a bad thing, since the plot didn't need her to advance at the moment.

It's better to transition to another place than to maintain the character's persona here. The male and female leads will have more opportunities to meet, so if nothing unexpected happens, it shouldn't deviate too drastically.

Apart from Zhuzhu, Gu Caiyun and the other young ladies were overjoyed.

"Now that your mistress is about to go to a neighboring country to become an imperial concubine, this is a great honor. What kind of talk would it make to the Emperor if we were to cry and whine like this?"

Gu Caiyun struggled to suppress the upward curve of her lips and reprimanded her sternly.

Heaven has eyes; finally, someone has taken care of this scourge.

Zhuzhu rarely stood up for herself: "The Yu Kingdom is bordered by the desert, and sandstorms rage all day long. Miss has been pampered since childhood, how can she endure such inhuman suffering?"

Moreover, she had heard that none of the princes of Yu Kingdom were good-looking, and that they all looked quite different. Wasn't that annoying her young lady?

"Zhuzhu, don't waste your breath, go back." This was an imperial decree, which could not be disobeyed. Gu Caiyun couldn't wait for her to leave, so naturally she wouldn't plead for her.

She ignored the mocking glances from her family members and left first.

The crowd then turned away with some regret, having expected to see an unpleasant expression on the arrogant young lady's face.

But it didn't.

Or perhaps their mental fortitude is too strong. Most people, if they were to be so infamous, would have already committed suicide because they couldn't bear the verbal abuse.

Everything was over, and everyone went their separate ways to get back to their own business.

"Wherever Miss goes, I will be there." Zhuzhu wiped away her tears of anger, her tone firm.

The girl in white smiled gently: "You've suffered by following me."

Bai Guanqing, on the other hand, did not return to the General's Mansion immediately. He felt inexplicably choked up and simply took the time to kill all the enemies he had offended in the past.

The sharp, gleaming dagger went in with a white blade and came out with a red one, splattering warm blood onto the mask.

The young man was used to it. He casually wiped away the bloodstains, looked at the bright moon in the sky, and pursed his lips.

Now, he has no choice but to go back to being a hidden bodyguard.

When General He saw him again, the young man, reeking of blood, stepped across the threshold.

He stroked his beard and raised an eyebrow: "It seems this Miss Ni is quite easy to talk to, releasing you so quickly. How come you've lost so much weight in just a few days?"

“It must be an illusion,” Bai Guanqing said calmly.

"Now that you're back, take a good rest for a few days. After all, I still need you to protect my daughter." General He laughed heartily.

The young man merely gave a perfunctory smile, his eyes remaining as cold and lifeless as ever.

In the days that followed, Ni Qing also prepared for the long journey ahead. She stayed indoors, seemingly isolated from the world.

But secrets can't stay hidden forever. Soon, the news that she was going to marry into the Yu Kingdom spread like wildfire, especially among those she had offended.

It's a delicious meal that everyone should celebrate.

Even He Yingyue's maidservants started discussing it while cleaning the courtyard.

"Have you heard? The drunken young lady from the Ni family is going to marry far away to the Yu Kingdom."

"Everyone knows about something this big. She's really lucky. She had affairs with so many men and still managed to marry a prince and become an imperial concubine."

"What's so good about it? The princes of Yu Kingdom are all old, weak, sick, and disabled, and the environment is also very harsh, with frequent natural disasters."

"I reckon she wouldn't live more than a year after she went there."

The maids chattered and gossiped, completely unaware of the tall, upright figure lurking in the shadows.
