Rebirth: My Healer Wife Owns Superpowers-Chapter 267 - : A Burst of Anger for Her, This Beauty?
Chapter 267: Chapter 267: A Burst of Anger for Her, This Beauty?
That day, Qi Yue was idly sitting in Yimei Garden when suddenly Zhu Ye announced that a Beiyuan Envoy had visited and requested to see her.
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue became enraged.
“I won’t see them, throw them out.”
These people were all here to harm her, and upon seeing them, she could hardly resist drawing her sword to kill them all!
Soon after, Zhu Ye returned, saying the Beiyuan Envoy refused to leave and insisted on seeing Qi Yue no matter what.
“They won’t leave?” She scoffed coldly and immediately drew the Tang Sword that lay before her and proceeded to the front hall.
...
From a distance, she could see two old men spinning around the hall like tops, looking as if their butts were on fire.
“Who wishes to see me?” Qi Yue stepped in with light steps and, with a sharp laugh, tossed the sword in her hand onto the table.
This action greatly alarmed the two Beiyuan Envoys waiting there.
However, these two were not afraid that Qi Yue would use the sword.
In their eyes, Qi Yue, a divorced orphan, representing Beiyuan in a marriage alliance, was like a pie falling from the sky, a good fortune they dared not even dream of.
Why would they be upset?
Moreover, their identities were notable here.
One was Zu Wen, the Emperor’s favored man from the Prime Minister’s court, and the other was Li Fang Ye, noted for flattering the Emperor.
Bearing high ranks and aged, who in the Beiyuan Imperial Court would neither respect nor fear them?
Seeing Qi Yue’s behavior, the two exchanged glances after their initial shock.
Their expression clearly conveyed, “Indeed, the daughter of a military general, so crude!”
Li Fang Ye saw Qi Yue taking the chief seat and that she hadn’t invited them to sit, he flicked his mustache discontentedly.
“Miss Qi, do you not understand etiquette when you meet an elder? Your father was also very respectful in front of me!”
Always keen to take the lead, Zu Wen, who disliked others getting ahead of him, also spoke, “Exactly, the Great General had illustrious military achievements, yet he never flaunted his authority like this. As his daughter, you should be even more humble and courteous — it’s for your own good!”
Qi Yue had long wanted to handle these two, but she restrained herself, wondering what sort of ivory could emerge from these cur’s mouths.
“Oh, what benefits? A marriage alliance?”
Zu Wen and Li Fang Ye exchanged glances, smiles spreading across their old faces simultaneously.
“Miss Qi, we have come to congratulate you. Just the other day at the banquet, the Princely Heir of Qi Yun himself said, he would marry no other but you, Miss Qi. What a partial favor!”
“Exactly, even the Fox King said that his only son, Song Qingshan, also wishes to marry Miss Qi as his wife!”
“Miss Qi, you are on your way to becoming the Princely Heir’s wife. Please don’t forget, it was us two who vigorously facilitated this marriage alliance before the Emperor that brought you this day!”
“Miss Qi, you need not be too thankful; after all, the Great General had established great credit for Beiyuan, we should rightfully take good care of you!”
“…”
The two old men praised their “great achievements,” blissfully unaware that Qi Yue was on the brink of explosion.
But at this moment, Qi Yue’s rage reached its peak and she coolly calmed down.
What use was there in killing these two old men with a sword?
The best choice was to extract the residual value from them!
Thinking this, Qi Yue’s lips curled into a slight smile.
“So, I am fortunate enough to be the first general’s daughter to be married off to Donggao, thanks to you two?”
“Of course,” Zu Wen and Li Fang Ye nodded in unison.
However, Qi Yue shook her head.
“How come I heard that it wasn’t like that, that the marriage proposal came from Donggao?”
At this, the two exchanged a glance, then laughed it off.
“Yes, yes, but there were some in the court who opposed it. If not for the Emperor’s approval, coupled with our strong advocacy, the marriage alliance wouldn’t have been so easily settled!”
“Oh, there were opponents?” Qi Yue feigned discontent, “Who might they be?”
“There are not just one or two opposers, such as Prime Minister Fang She, Vice Minister Zhang Rang…”
Li Fang Ye was enthusiastically speaking when Zu Wen interrupted him.
“What are you saying about Prime Minister Fang? It’s now Prime Minister Lin.”
Upon learning that Grand Tutor had unexpectedly become the Prime Minister, Qi Yue couldn’t help but sneer incessantly.
Prime Minister, how splendid!
The higher you climb, the harder you fall!
Once she returned…
“…also, the one who opposed most fiercely, Miss Qi, must remember this… the Duke went practically mad, even though the imperial edict had been issued, he still petitioned every day, asking his Majesty to repeal the order! Young Marquis Zhao did as well, they truly did not wish for Miss Qi to have a good future!”
“Exactly, even after the divorce, they still don’t wish for the lady to have a better life, how despicable is that!”
After such a long time, hearing news about Zhao Yongzhe and Zhao Xiyan suddenly from others, Qi Yue was momentarily stunned.
“What did Young Marquis Zhao do? He doesn’t want me to enter into marriage?”
“Exactly!” Zu Wen took a passionate step forward, “Miss Qi, since he has divorced, and yet he wants to disrupt the alliance marriage, this is simply treasonous.”
Li Fang Ye was not to be outdone.
“Miss Qi, we are here because of Young Marquis Zhao, to discuss the grand marriage plans, this matter still needs you to step in and resolve!”
Qi Yue listened, utterly confused.
What are they talking about?

What outrageous treason, disrupting an alliance marriage.
“What did Young Marquis Zhao do? Why should I step in to resolve it?”
Zu Wen hurried forward, pulling out a letter from his sleeve and handing it to Qi Yue.
“Miss Qi, it’s urgent. After you read this, please quickly write a letter asking Young Marquis Zhao to stand down, if this continues, it won’t be good for any of us!”
Upon hearing this, Qi Yue’s heart pounded fiercely.
What did he do?
What could be so urgent?
She quickly opened the letter, and was initially stunned by the contents.
It was a copy of an urgent border report.
The report stated that Zhao Xiyan had gathered the natives of Longnan Ridge, along with 20,000 private soldiers and local armed civilians, totaling 30,000 troops, and announced a rebellion half a month ago. He had already seized Yulin Pass in Donggao and occupied the strategic border region of Yuzhou, preparing his forces to continue advancing towards Yanjing. The reason for the rebellion was his disagreement with Miss Qi’s arranged marriage.
Qi Yue read the line about his disagreement with her arranged marriage three times, something inside her slowly stirred, and suddenly she felt something swelling within her, rising to her eyes.
He waged a rebellion for her?!
Was this the same aloof, noble man?
Yes, she remembered.
During their time in Longnan County Government, he had said he would always be by her side, protect her, never leave her.
He meant what he said! He really came to protect her?
For a moment, Qi Yue’s whole heart was immersed in memories of the past.
She remembered many things…
Zhao Xiyan teaching her how to use a Tang Sword, telling her that once she learned it well for self-defense, he would feel relieved.
After hearing Qu Wei say that she liked him, he immediately confessed, saying he had liked her for a long time.
…
He had his naive sides, mistakenly thinking her feelings for him were fraternal.
He also had his indifferent sides, sometimes not speaking a whole day.
Now, he had gone as far as to rebel in a fit of rage for her, his beloved?
Oh, how many more sides of this man did she not yet know!
She thought deeply and dreamily, but her contemplation was interrupted by the noisy voices around her.
“Miss Qi, we must not delay, please quickly write a letter affirming your agreement to the marriage. That way, Young Marquis Zhao will stand down!”
“Yes, yes, Miss Qi, if we delay further, Donggao might refuse the alliance marriage, and we would have a hard time explaining it to his Majesty!”
“Miss Qi, Young Marquis Zhao’s actions clearly show he does not wish for you to have a good marriage. Aren’t you and the Princely Heir mutually in love? Take this opportunity to express your stance; I believe the Princely Heir will certainly become even more inseparable from you, Miss Qi!”
