The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly Chapter 573 - 236 My Son is a Treacherous Minister (Part 12)

Before the eyes of all, she appeared as a simple rural wife, who, feeling humiliated and unable to bear it any longer, finally——

"Ding! Yang Sanlang’s hatred value 10!"

Ah, at last, she had managed to raise the hatred value of the spoiled young man, and He Tiantian felt extrely satisfied.

Victory was within reach, yet she had to continue to strive harder.

He Tiantian dabbed at her surging tears with a handkerchief, sighing inwardly: To impersonate the innocent flower, one must first have the innate conditions.

Without ntioning anything else, just these well-developed tear glands had given the original host a considerable advantage.

"I, a humble country wife, called a ’slave’ by others, don’t take it to heart. A widow’s household has endured disdain and insult for over a decade, haven’t they?"

"But, I cannot implicate my son. My boy only began his enlightennt at the age of six, studying diligently regardless of the heat or cold, and by thirteen he beca a Scholar, at sixteen the Saint himself appointed him as Third place scholar!"

"My son has served in the imperial court for five years, diligent and frugal, never showing a mont’s laxity, and his reputation is extrely good. Now, today, I have been humiliated like this, how can my son maintain his standing in the Imperial court?"

While crying, He Tiantian spoke these words, the fact that her tears were so torrential yet her enunciation remained clear made it so that everyone present could hear the inner voice of a loving mother willing to give her all for her son.

Commandery Princess An Kang:... Wow, that’s quite magical.

It’s the sa old story, if the dramatic mother-in-law was acting against her, she’d be like a mute eating bitter herbs, suffering without being able to voice it.

But witnessing the mother-in-law handle people she couldn’t bear to watch and putting her adversaries in an awkward position, leaving them extrely uncomfortable, An Kang felt only one thing—thrilled!

Vice Minister Yang wasn’t just a political rival to He Xi; over the years, he frequently impeached Prince Consort Guo and Duke Wei Mansion.

Accusations of harboring troops in defiance of his superiors, of not obeying the sovereign’s edicts...

Vice Minister Yang and several Imperial Censors and civil servants were like a swarm of annoying flies.

Although they couldn’t really cause harm to the Guo family, they buzzed incessantly every day, truly nauseating.

Furthermore, the young n of the Yang Family, also relying on their so-called family background to despise those from a poor family, attacking nobles and military generals.

The brothers of the Guo Family from the sa generation as Yang Sanlang, had often been mocked by the young n of the Yang Family.

Accusations of being uncouth, of besmirching culture, of committing murderous evil...

Nonsense!

Even An Kang, a woman confined to the inner quarters, knew that one must be fierce against enemies on the battlefield, and that killing the enemy is different from murder.

Her father and brothers were actually protecting and defending Weiguo, but in the mouths of those pedantic literati, they were sohow turned into harbingers of destruction!

Hmph, it would be best to send all those mouthy excuses for n straight to the border, let them be repeatedly ’cleansed’ and ’harvested’ by the Hulu, and see if they could still speak of a "land of propriety" or "the invincibility of the benevolent" in face of a group of brutal enemies!

Unfortunately... An Kang was of a delicate disposition, such words she only dared relish in her mind.

Aside from the limitations of courage, there were also objective social factors—

The Daxia Dynasty had been at peace for a long ti already, and had developed a trend of valuing literature over military achievents. Those scholars were eloquent as lotus flowers, as if what they said made perfect sense.

At least by An Kang’s standards, she could not refute those n and vindicate the Guo Family Army!

Since she couldn’t do it, then she shouldn’t rashly provoke them, lest she inadvertently bring disaster upon the Guo family.

An Kang could only bear it.

In that mont, suddenly seeing the evil old lady unleash her might against Yang Sanlang, An Kang felt an imnse sense of relief wash over her!

Right!

That’s precisely how one should deal with those so-called noble families who only know how to talk big!

Commandery Princess An Kang watched with pleasure as the mother-in-law acted.

Eh, why say "acted"?

Because after all, having been Ms. Hetian’s daughter-in-law for five years, An Kang certainly knew the mother-in-law’s true character.

The mother-in-law was a selfish, cold-hearted person, her utmost concern always being herself.

Perhaps beyond herself, the mother-in-law might have so affection for her son, but it was limited.

At least, the mother-in-law would definitely not mutilate herself for her son!

However, understanding is one thing; An Kang could not publicly dismantle her mother-in-law’s facade.

Especially since the mother-in-law was currently making things difficult for the Yang Family, both emotionally and rationally An Kang should lend a hand.

"Mother!"

An Kang made a great effort to keep up with her mother-in-law’s acting, crying out in indignation and pretending to reach for her mother-in-law’s arm.

It being her first ti acting, she was inevitably a bit too forceful.

Fortunately, everyone’s attention was on the "Protagonist" He Tiantian, and nobody paid much mind to her.

Her unpracticed acting, on the contrary, made people think that An Kang, the daughter-in-law, seed to have been scared by the sudden turn of events, behaving sowhat irrationally for a mont.

"An Kang, don’t stop , let die, let this ’servant’ die!"

"I cannot harm my son, I cannot let my most promising son, who carries the hopes of our entire family, be mocked because of !"

"Let die, just let die!"

He Tiantian dramatized her search for death, her mournful voice echoing throughout the entire tavern.

"Ding! Yang Sanlang’s hatred value 30!"

He Tiantian was very pleased; she abruptly stopped her howling, her eyes rolled back, and she fainted dead away.

"Mother~~~"

An Kang, led by her mother-in-law into the play, actually cried real tears, and she didn’t forget to lay bla on the initial cause, Yang Sanlang: "Yang Sanlang, don’t you leave, this matter, even if it goes before the Saint, I will demand justice for my mother!"

What a good daughter-in-law, well done!

"Ding! Yang Sanlang’s hatred value 30!"
