Chapter 25: Deadend
Xie Shurou thought about it, but she felt that she had no position to stop the fifth prince Zheng Ying from tearing up the male protagonist Zheng Jin and robbing the female protagonist. It is true that the mother of the fifth prince of the family was born in the Xie family, but she is not the daughter of Prime Minister Xie, she is just a niece of the clan, the Xie family of Chenjun is a famous family, and there are so many branches, Xie Shurou feels that she, a crossing party from modern times, can't figure out how far the relationship between this so-called clan niece is.
Besides, even if Empress Xie was very close to their Prime Minister Xie Mansion, she would have died a long time ago! A dead man can't discipline his son!
And this Zheng Ying was born by the former queen, and was raised by the current queen Wei herself, at present, she is a very valued prince, there is a difference between monarchs and ministers, why should she Xie Shurou stop the fifth prince from competing with the sixth prince for the heroine? Not only could she not stop it, but she also did not want to stop it herself.
There is no other reason, she, the vicious female partner who robbed the man with the female protagonist, was not robbed by the male protagonist Zheng Jin, but by the fifth prince Zheng Ying. Because Xie Shurou likes Zheng Ying and wants to be the concubine of the fifth prince, but Zheng Ying likes the heroine Gu Yilan, so Xie Shurou doesn't like Gu Yilan anywhere, and she tries her best to make the stumbling block hurt people.
For Xie Shurou, a crossing party who now wants to live in peace and save her life, this fifth prince Zheng Ying is simply a disaster, and it is too late to stay away, let her take the initiative to persuade Zheng Ying not to rob Zheng Jin of the heroine, that is absolutely undare!
Xie Shurou remembered that according to the plot of that novel, the difference between the fifth prince and the sixth prince Zheng Jin, born to Empress Wei herself, was actually only five months apart, and the two grew up together since childhood, and their relationship was very good.
Zheng Ying was a prince for a short time, and according to the book, Zheng Ying and Zheng Jin are both brothers who are smart, but have very different personalities, Zheng Ying is shrewd and ambitious, while Zheng Jin is studious, modest and gentle.
The gentle and simple, pitiful, and white rabbit-like heroine Queen Wei is of course a kind person, and the son of the former queen is also dedicated to raising her, and is as good as Zheng Ying and Zheng Jin, these two children are like her own.
Because the sixth prince Zheng Jin likes to read poetry and history, his talent is very high, but his nature is free and easy, and he does not like to be restrained, his ideal is not to be the prince and the emperor, but to wait for his brother Zheng Ying to ascend the throne, to be an idle prince who repairs books and compiles history, and takes his beloved Gu Yilan to travel all over the famous mountains and rivers.
In fact, the emperor and Empress Wei also thought so, they felt that Zheng Ying was cautious and scheming, wise and generous, and more suitable for inheriting the unification, so from the beginning, the emperor and queen cultivated the fifth prince Zheng Ying as the crown prince, and later did let Zheng Ying sit on the throne of the crown prince.
The sixth prince, Zheng Jin, has no opinion on Zheng Ying being the crown prince, but Zheng Ying wants to rely on the power to compete with him for Gu Yilan, but he can't tolerate it.
Zheng Jin and Zheng Ying grew up together, and before they met Gu Yilan, the relationship between the two brothers was actually very good, so even if Zheng Ying became the prince, Zheng Jin did not want to worry about his brother for Gu Yilan's many embarrassments. He even went to ask the emperor, wanting the emperor to marry him and Gu Yilan as soon as possible, and then give him a remote fief, so that he could take Gu Yilan away and fly away to avoid his brother's edge.
However, Zheng Jin didn't expect that Zheng Ying also begged the emperor at the same time to marry Gu Yilan as a concubine. The two sons both like the Gu family's daughter, and the emperor is in a dilemma, but the queen knows it.
Empress Wei knew that Gu Yilan and her son Zheng Jin were in love with each other and did not like Zheng Ying, so Empress Wei personally asked the emperor to marry Zheng Jin, but Empress Wei was reluctant to let her son leave the capital, so she did not agree to Zheng Jin's request to be crowned king on the border.
As soon as the holy decree was issued, Zheng Ying's eyes turned red. In his mind, Zheng Jin now has a great hatred and hatred for taking his wife, so he presses Zheng Jin step by step, and even hopes that Zheng Jin will die. Zheng Jin is dead, the world is his, and Gu Yilan is also his.
The brilliant Zheng Jin really doesn't want to conflict with his brother, but this doesn't mean that when Zheng Ying wants his life, he will sit back and wait for death. Through careful planning, he pulled Zheng Ying off the crown prince, thinking that after losing his power, Zheng Ying would be more restrained. Unexpectedly, this attracted Zheng Ying to fight back and retaliate even more recklessly.
Everything reached its peak after Zheng Ying hijacked and imprisoned Gu Yilan, and the two brothers finally became an endless game. Of course, Zheng Jin, who has the halo of the male protagonist and has a true heroine's mother and a true heroine's daughter-in-law, will not lose, while the fifth prince Zheng Ying has lost all his power and dependence, and was demoted to a concubine and banned for life.
Of course, Zheng Ying was not imprisoned for long, and he soon committed suicide with regret and self-blame under the inspiration of the dual heroine halos of Queen Wei and Gu Yilan, and became one of the only two male supporting actors in the book who did not end well.
That's right, the only two. Most of the female supporting characters in this book did not end well, except for a few female protagonists who had a good ending, and most of the male supporting actors ended well, and there was no shortage of high-ranking officials, but they may be lonely and affectionate for the rest of their lives, and they are still contributing to her wholeheartedly after the heroine gets married.
There are so many male supporting actors, only Zheng Ying, who is against the male lead, and Zheng Chongjing, the scumbag ex-husband of the heroine Gu Yilan, who did not end well. There are only two who didn't end well, and one of them is still a relative of their old Xie family, Xie Shurou just doesn't know what to do.
Empress Xie is their Xie family, and Prime Minister Xie Cheng's Mansion can be regarded as the prince's family from any point of view. Zheng Ying died like this, and the Xie family, who was tied to the same boat with him, wanted to get out of the way, is it possible? Xie Shurou thought about it, and felt that this was a dead end! But the problem is that although she is unwilling to inexplicably travel to this ghost world to live, she is even more reluctant to die.
It's better to die than to live, but it's a pity that she didn't think about it, but she didn't figure out how she should save herself. Speaking of which, she, a vicious female partner who is jumping back and forth, is really not the fundamental reason why the Xie family is destroying the family. The root is in the fifth prince Zheng Ying, she really can't control it.
Xie Shuyi was lying on the bed, and after combing through the details of the book that she could remember, she had to admit that this was really a dead end, and she really couldn't interfere with the future ending of the Xie family.
Xie Shurou, who finally recognized the facts, was extremely desperate, she lay in bed for three days, not wanting to speak or move. Anyway, they are all going to die, she thought to herself, it is better to die now, with the identity of a vicious female partner, she is destined to be buried with a dead male partner in the future, she feels that every day in the world is torture.
