Chapter 106: Ding, Your Green Hat Has Been Delivered! 16

Wei Que watched as Su Tang struggled to eat while wearing his large cloak. He remembered how picky she was with food and how few things could satisfy her appetite. So, he picked up the bowl and started feeding her himself.

She ate so little and wore such thin clothing, no wonder she was so weak. What would she do without him looking after her?

Wei Que, like a worried old mother, noticed her tightly furrowed brows as she refused to open her mouth. Finally, he used his ultimate weapon. "If you don't finish eating, you're not leaving the manor gates from this day forward."

Su Tang's eyes widened in disbelief. "That's illegal imprisonment!"

Wei Que laughed. His face, already delicately handsome, seemed to melt the ice and snow with his smile. He looked like a refined and elegant gentleman. However, only those closest to him knew that the Marquis Yongchang rarely smiled. If he did, it meant someone was about to suffer.

"This is the first time I've ever fed anyone."

Even the dwarf from back then, he never fed him. After all, he felt that a grown man, even a short one, shouldn't need to be fed. It wasn't a matter of being pampered.

In truth, Wei Que's movements were clumsy, but his attentiveness was evident. He even blew on the spoonful of porridge, afraid of scalding her.

"This is the first time this Marquis has fed someone. Is Madam touched?" he teased, seeing Su Tang's stiff posture.

Su Tang: "…"

Don't move, don't move!

The porridge was now at a suitable temperature. Su Tang, who had barely eaten a full meal in days, was initially too afraid to move. She would only mechanically open her mouth with each spoonful he offered. But as her stomach started to awaken, her long-suppressed cravings emerged, and she couldn't help herself.

For example, towards the end, she became picky. The plain porridge was too bland; she wanted the shrimp dumplings on the side, and the various pastries that left a sweet fragrance in her mouth after each bite.

Wei Que watched as she cautiously revealed her true self, her arrogant facade slipping away, and he couldn't help but smile inwardly.

How could she be so adorable? And those eyes, sparkling like stars in the night sky, were so beautiful that he couldn't bear to blink.

"Ding, the Blackening Value has decreased by 10%, current Blackening Index: 60%."

Since arriving in this world, Su Tang finally had her first satisfying meal, and even her view of Wei Que had softened.

Even if she were to die, at least she would die with a full stomach!

For this alone, she decided to hold off on giving him another green hat.

"Speaking of which, what happened to the two boxes of pastries I brought back?"

She had been busy fighting Princess Yu Yang at the Duke Yingguo's manor, and after the fight, her pastries were supposedly taken back by Wei Que. But it had been days, and he still hadn't returned them!

Mentioning this was a mistake. Wei Que's face immediately turned cold. "I fed them to the dogs."

He hadn't even settled the score with her yet. Giving away hairpins, taking pastries from others… Did she think he was dead?

"Little glutton, if you want to eat something next time, tell me. If you take anything from anyone else again, I'll tie you up." Gone was his previous coldness. Now, Wei Que was as gentle as a spring breeze, his voice tinged with amusement.

Only Su Tang remained expressionless. What nerve had she struck this time?

Forget it. It's getting late, she might as well continue giving him green hats.

Wei Que's temperament had taken a drastic turn. Initially, he would bicker with her, but now, it was always her who was enraged while he calmly pacified her. Of course, this pacification wouldn't last more than three sentences before veiled threats followed.

Just like this time.

The past joy of their arguments was gone, replaced by one-sided suppression. Su Tang felt suffocated, more so than her years in the Northwest!

Therefore, the Shao Yang persona had to go offline.

But now, with Wei Que watching her so closely, she couldn't do it alone. Ultimately, her gaze fell upon those in positions of power. The Emperor would never allow her to divorce, and neither would the Empress.

However, the Crown Prince liked her! And with Princess Yu Yang on her side, she refused to believe this marriage could last!

As the saying went, there were no walls that couldn't be scaled, only people who didn't try hard enough.

Su Tang, full from her meal, was strolling in the courtyard, lost in thought. Her maids didn't dare disturb her until her expression suddenly changed. "To the study!"

Mu Xiang was puzzled. "What's wrong, my Lady?"

Su Tang declared, "I need to write a letter to His Highness, the Crown Prince."

Shao Yang had never paid much attention to him, and the Crown Prince's heart had always been set on her. If she used this to her advantage, she could definitely get rid of this marriage.

She felt a little sorry for the silly prince, but it couldn't be helped. It was better than failing her mission and facing destruction together.

As soon as she spoke, the four maids exchanged glances. Then, as if on cue, they all chimed in.

"My Lady, actually, the Marquis is a good man. No matter how good the Crown Prince is, he already has a Crown Princess."

"Exactly! The Marquis may seem cold, but he's kind-hearted. These past few days, we've all seen how sincere he is towards you."

"Why don't you… consider the Marquis? Although divorced women in our Great Ye Dynasty have no shortage of suitors, finding another man like the Marquis who doesn't take concubines is rare."

They all knew that their Lady's so-called lover outside was fake. Their Lady was a good person; she was just using this marriage with the Marquis Yongchang to vent her anger over the incident with the Prince of Huainan. Of course, they were angry at first too, after all, the Prince was their true master.

But their Lady went to the Northwest alone, wasn't it to investigate this matter? And the truth proved that it was indeed the old Prince's own misjudgment. The Marquis Yongchang had already ordered a return to camp, but the old Prince thought that a few deserters were no threat.

He had forgotten the old saying: "Do not pursue a defeated enemy."

They were saddened by the old Prince's death, but the deceased were gone. As the living, they had to consider the future.

Initially, they also felt that the Marquis Yongchang wasn't a good match. After all, even without the incident with the old Prince, they were still sworn enemies. But things were different now. The Marquis seemed to have come to his senses. He would come to Lingxi Courtyard whenever he was free. If it was all an act, there was no need to be so convincing.

With him around, their Lady had been eating more than usual.

If Su Tang knew what her maids were thinking, she would definitely tell them that she didn't need the Marquis Yongchang, she could eat enough to make them doubt their own eyes.

"I have no feelings for the Crown Prince. I'm only writing this letter to use him to get out of this marriage. As for the latter…" Su Tang paused, a sly smile curving her lips. "I already have someone I admire."

The maids gasped in shock!

"Who is it?!"

Su Tang thought to herself, the person she admired most was, of course, herself. In this world, no one was more deserving of her love than herself.

She was merely trying to appease her maids and prevent them from singing the Marquis Yongchang's praises day and night. However, she never expected these words to reach Wei Que's ears.

That day, as he returned to the manor after court, his shadow guard presented him with a letter.

The handwriting was delicate and familiar, undoubtedly from his wife. But as he opened the letter, Wei Que's expression visibly darkened.
