Chapter 842 The Substitute Bride (4)
Xiong Bufan is becoming more and more promising, and he has the potential to become the leader of the Beggars' Sect in this small world.
The rain outside hadn't stopped, so Xiong Bufan found a place to sit down, lit a fire, and prepared to dry his clothes, since wearing wet clothes could cause him to catch a cold.
Kongkong: "Bufan, do you want to receive the memories?"
Flames danced on the firewood. Xiong Bufan said, "Receive it."
"it is good."
The original owner's name was Wang Xile, the daughter of Wang Hong, the Vice Minister of the Ministry of Revenue. However, she was not favored at home, and her aunt was a maid who accompanied the mistress, Lady Wang.
When Madam Wang was pregnant, Wang Hong, at her suggestion, took in Cailing, one of her dowry maids.
Not long after the birth of Wang Yuhuan, the legitimate daughter of Minister Wang, Wang Xile was also born. He was a premature baby, but his birth month was one month different from that of Wang Yuhuan.
After Cailing became a concubine, she had been drinking contraceptive soup, and giving birth to Cailing was completely accidental.
But Madam Wang didn't think so. She always felt that Cailing had used seductive tricks to keep the child, and for a while she didn't give Cailing and Wang Xile a good look.
Cailing was born into the household of Madam Wang, Si Nanyin. From a young age, she was taught that Si Nanyin was her everything, and that she would protect her mistress even if it meant her death.
Being misunderstood by Madam Wang was a huge deal to Cai Ling. Just three days after giving birth, she took Wang Xile to pledge her loyalty, saying that she would always be loyal to Si Nanyin, and even tried to strangle Wang Xile on the spot.
Some people develop maternal instincts after becoming mothers, and Si Nanyin is a typical example of this.
Si Nanyin reprimanded Cailing, allowed her to keep the child, and named the child Wang Xile.
The local officials' speech often carries a slight accent, so when they shouted "Xi Le," it sounded like "dead."
Cailing knelt on the ground to thank Si Nanyin for giving her a name, and then carried the child back to her residence.
In the days that followed, Cai Ling paid little attention to the original owner, but she still managed to raise her healthily and prevent her from dying halfway through her life.
Knowing that Madam disliked Wang Xile, Cailing rarely let Wang Xile go near Madam. Most of the time, Wang Xile would hide in her own courtyard and quietly learn to read and write, as well as some etiquette.
Wang Xile was considered half a young lady in the household, so Cailing did not teach her how to be a proper servant.
Perhaps because he had never left the courtyard since childhood, Wang Xile was both innocent and timid.
Sometimes I would think about what kind of young master I would marry in the future, or whether I would become my elder sister's dowry maid.
However, barring any unforeseen circumstances, she will marry a promising scholar or a minor official.
Wang Xile lived in the Wang family until she was eighteen. Although her treatment was not as good as Wang Yuhuan's, she was still relatively safe. Occasionally, Wang Yuhuan would mock her, but it was nothing serious and she didn't suffer any real harm.
Under the arrangement of Vice Minister Wang, Wang Yuhuan was arranged to marry the War God Prince of the Great Wei Dynasty.
This was an excellent marriage, but misfortune struck quickly. During a campaign, the War King's leg was destroyed, and he could no longer stand up.
News of the War King's tyranny and decadence spread daily from the manor; marrying into the War King's manor was tantamount to jumping into a fire pit.
It would be a lie for Wang Yuhuan not to be afraid, but Vice Minister Wang was determined to let her marry into the family, saying that this would not break the marriage contract and would prove that they had a sense of contractual obligation.
Lady Wang was so frightened that she cried every day, and Wang Yuhuan was even more so. Finally, on the eve of their wedding, Wang Yuhuan packed his bags and ran away from the wedding.
When Vice Minister Wang learned of this news, he was so angry that he paced back and forth at home. He couldn't afford to offend the King of War with his broken leg, so he had no choice but to force Wang Xile to comply. He fed her some muscle relaxant, dressed her in an unsuitable wedding gown, and shoved her into the bridal sedan chair when it arrived.
When Cailing received the news, she was still outside making clothes for her wife. After wiping away the tears that streamed down her face, she continued making the clothes.
Wang Xile never expected that such an outrageous thing as his sister-in-law marrying his brother-in-law could happen to him. Thinking that if he confessed, the entire Vice Minister's mansion would suffer, he decided to keep it a secret.
The War King's Mansion was not a good place. The War King was getting married, but the mansion was not decorated with a wedding hall. Wang Xile was forced to bow to the rooster and then was sent to the bridal chamber in a daze.
The candlelight flickered as Wang Xile sat on the wedding bed. She knew the Prince of War did not like her, but she never expected to be turned away on the very first day of her marriage.
After preparing to sit in solitude all night, the War King led Zixi and Zi to their room.
Wang Xile still held a sliver of hope, but the moment the War King spoke, that hope vanished completely.
"I pay my respects to the prince."
War King: "Drag him out and take him to the laundry room. He's not allowed to leave unless absolutely necessary."
Wang Xile: ? ? ? ?
Ziqi dragged Wang Xile out, not caring whether she was wearing a red wedding dress or not.
Wang Xile spent a difficult time in the laundry room, where everyone bullied her. From time to time, the daughter of Zhan Wang's wet nurse would come to cause trouble. In less than two years, Wang Xile was worn down beyond recognition, her face covered with scars, to the point that even Cai Ling could not recognize her.
No one suffers forever, unless that person is Wang Xile.
The palace announced to the public that Wang Xile had died, and the War King hastily married a new queen.
The people in the manor did not deliberately hide Wang Xile's existence. The new princess quickly found Wang Xile and killed her with a single blow, ending Wang Xile's life.
Xiong Bufan scratched his head, feeling there was no need to come at all, because this person was not as miserable as the original owner of the body in the traditional sense.
Kongkong: "Bufan, the original owner has forgotten many of his experiences, so I suggest you don't read it either."
There are still some memories I haven't fully processed, so please don't rush me.
"it is good."
When Cailing first learned that her child was still alive, she hesitated and cowardly sneaked into the War King's mansion to try to rescue her daughter. As a result, she was hacked to pieces by the War King's men right in front of the original owner of the body.
After Cai Ling's death, Wang Xile also became somewhat mentally unstable.
After Wang Xile died, his soul flew very high and was captured by the Heavenly Dao, and soon the mission taker arrived.
Xiong Bufan wasn't the first person to come to this world and take over Wang Xile's mission, but judging from the current situation, he should be the one who satisfies her the most.
After the mission takers arrived, they all used their unique abilities, but most of them were focused on healing the War King's leg, taking revenge on the royal family, helping the War King ascend the throne, and living a sweet and happy life, completely ignoring Cai Ling's life or death.
Wang Xile felt this was wrong. She thought those task participants were crazy, so she judged them all as having failed their missions.
Xiong Bufan is the 18th mission taker to this world; the others have basically all been kicked out.
Kongkong: "Unusual, this world looks strange. It hasn't crashed even after so many replays."
"This is a novel world. Rereading is the author rewriting the text. The more times it is revised, the faster the protagonist's self-awakening will be."
Kongkong was hearing this concept for the first time. "Extraordinary? How do you know?"
"That's just my guess."
"Ok."
