Chapter 1191: The Princess Consort Whose Memories Were Altered (66)

"Before I met you, I never had special feelings for any woman. Only after meeting you did I understand what it means for one's heart to be moved."

"Perhaps... I was born solely for you."

System: Those love words… so unbearably cheesy.

Tang Guo chuckled softly. "Young Master Beitang is both a sincere man and a cunning one. I think no one in this world can resist another person's genuine heart."

Beitang Huo said nothing and merely smiled at her.

Yes, he truly was cunning.

Little by little, he was making her grow accustomed to his kindness, allowing her to experience the affection she had never known before.

And then she would discover that nowhere in this world could she find another Beitang Huo, nor another heart more genuine than his.

"You only need to arrange for a group of bandits. Let things proceed according to what I said earlier. I'll take care of the rest."

Suddenly remembering something, Beitang Huo asked, "Since your memories were never replaced, Miss Tang… does that mean Second Miss Tang's memories weren't changed either?"

"That's right. Neither were hers."

Beitang Huo nodded. He had always felt that Tang Jiao was somewhat strange. Her current personality was completely different from the information he had gathered before.

Tang Jiao had originally been a lively young woman who loved landscapes, paintings, and traveling through mountains and scenic places.

But the current Tang Jiao was ignorant of worldly matters, spoiled and extravagant, clearly someone who had been doted on excessively.

So everything had simply been an act by the two sisters, all to teach those two brothers a lesson.

Still, he felt there was something more hidden beneath it all, though he couldn't quite figure it out.

After hearing Tang Guo's instructions, Beitang Huo immediately ordered his people to arrange the matter with the bandits. Once everything had been set in motion, he departed the next day with Tang Guo, accompanying the Northern Yan envoy delegation.

Northern Yan was no weaker than Southern Shu—if anything, it was even more powerful, especially in terms of military strength.

Since the Northern Yan envoys were departing, Shangguan Yi personally came to see them off.

His gaze briefly swept over the inconspicuous carriage, but it failed to attract any particular attention. He had no idea that Tang Guo was sitting inside.

He merely assumed that some official had gifted the Northern Yan envoy a beauty. Such things happened frequently, so he paid it no mind.

After bidding farewell to Beitang Huo, his eyes once again drifted toward that carriage.

When the breeze lifted the curtain, Beitang Huo happened to block the opening, and Shangguan Yi could only vaguely make out a slender silhouette inside, unable to see the person's face.

He couldn't understand why his attention kept being drawn to that ordinary carriage.

Only after the Northern Yan delegation disappeared from sight did Shangguan Yi finally withdraw his thoughts.

As for the ruler of Chen Kingdom, there was naturally no need for him to personally see him off.

Because of what had happened that day, Shangguan Yi still harbored some displeasure.

In truth, he had already begun regretting his impulsive decision to give her away.

But he was the Emperor of Southern Shu, the Son of Heaven. Having spoken those words before the rulers and envoys of various nations, he could not go back on them.

No matter how much regret gnawed at him, he couldn't demand her back. Doing so would utterly destroy Southern Shu's dignity.

On the day the ruler of Chen Kingdom departed, Shangguan Jing secretly mounted his horse and followed the convoy for some distance.

Only after watching the procession gradually disappear into the distance did he finally turn back.

Standing at the city gates, he felt inexplicably lost.

After learning about the matter, Tang Jiao mocked him thoroughly together with System 222 before continuing her outrageously pampered life.

After all, her elder sister had said that right now, all she needed to do—

was act as spoiled and unreasonable as possible.
