The Female Lead Decides to Act Wickedly-Chapter 1109 - 420: My Husband Is the Supporting Male Lead (Part 19)_3
Although the Dayuan Dynasty is facing warfare, it has not yet reached the point of national ruin.
In a flourishing feudal era, the idea of women wanting to go to the battlefield is simply unbelievable.
After the initial shock, He Shu contemplated why the Emperor and the court officials made such a decision.
The He Family Army!
It must be for the nearly hundred thousand troops in the Northwest.
Southward, the Marquis Ning’s Mansion had been rich and noble for generations, but had a sparse lineage.
The He Family now has two branches, the legitimate eldest son He Jing died young, leaving only He Shu, a daughter.
The second branch, He Jing’s side, is a bit better with two sons and a daughter.
But now He Jing and the eldest son He Tao are incapacitated, the second son He Han is weak, leaving only He Tian bouncing with life.
"The Emperor wants He Tian to be a mascot!"
Realizing this, He Shu couldn’t help but sneer.
But she wasn’t just a simple, jealous boudoir girl.
After a brief consideration, He Shu thought of something: "Since it’s just for show, it doesn’t necessarily have to be He Tian!"
Of course, He Shu wasn’t considering replacing He Tian herself.
She was self-aware; she couldn’t endure the hardships of military life nor the brutal slaughter of the cold weapon era.
He Shu couldn’t, but Zhou Jin could.
He is a man, skilled in both literature and martial arts, also a son-in-law of the He Family, a half-son, the He Family Army should respect him.
Most importantly, Zhou Jin is a Prince, even the Emperor might prefer having his family in charge of the military power.
Once Zhou Jin controls the Northwest Army, even if he can’t ascend to that position, he could become a powerful prince.
Rather than now, where he is looked down upon as a man living off a woman.
He Shu thought deeply.
And those wonderful prospects made her blood boil uncontrollably.
Yes!
Zhou Jin must gain military power!
He Shu had forgotten her own family name is He, and the He Family Army was the foundation of the He Family’s standing.
She wasn’t a native; she didn’t have strong clan awareness.
As for the bigger picture, she had never considered it.
The bigger picture?
Whose bigger picture?
She had no father, no brother, only a widowed mother. When she was being humiliated by He Tian in the inner courtyard of the Marquis Mansion, why didn’t anyone talk about the bigger picture? Sharing joys and sorrows?!
He Shu wanted to become the most honored person, making everyone afraid to bully her again.
With an idea in mind, He Shu couldn’t be bothered to celebrate with the Main Lady over her marrying into the Prince Mansion, and actively preparing the dowry.
He Shu directly sent a message to Zhou Jin.
The two continued their secret meetings at the Star Picking Tower.
As soon as they met, He Shu had no interest in discussing marriage matters or future plans with the tenderly affectionate Zhou Jin.
She went straight to the point: "Prince, I heard third sister is going to the Northwest?"
Zhou Jin’s full joy was instantly doused with cold water.
He felt uncomfortable and responded sullenly, "Yes!"
"This isn’t good! Third sister is already married, she is the Princess Qi!"
He Shu said urgently, "Men should be out, women should stay in. Even if the Northwest needs someone from the He Family to take charge, it should be a man!"
Zhou Jin: ...Of course, I know all this, but the problem is, my surname isn’t He.
As if hearing Zhou Jin’s internal complaint, He Shu quickly said: "Prince, even though you are not a young master of the He Family, you are a son-in-law."
Zhou Jin sneered; so what if he was a son-in-law, a half-son, there’s still a barrier.
But He Shu seriously said: "Putting that aside. You and third sister are a couple."
Zhou Jin seemed to have heard it, and looked at He Shu intently.
He Shu said: "A couple is a unit; the heavy burden on third sister’s shoulders is also your responsibility to share!"
So, Zhou Jin isn’t vying for power but is showing care for his wife, helping his wife!
Zhou Jin’s eyes lit up; hey, that’s a good argument!
Zhou Jin also wanted to wield military power.
Only by reigning supreme can one indulge in luxuries.
As a man, as a Prince, he also had ambitions.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t have agreed to the marriage back then, despite disliking He Tian.
"Yes, Shushu, you are really a kind and wonderful woman!"
Indeed, Shushu was good, always considering him.
Unlike He Tian, who only cared about her own limelight, never thought of looking after him as her husband!
He Tiantian: ...A scumbag is a scumbag, bleach couldn’t cleanse it.
He Tiantian couldn’t stand Zhou Jin; in the past, she only acted with him for calculations.
Now that the goal was achieved, successfully pairing He Shu and Zhou Jin, He Tiantian was too lazy to keep pretending.
So, when Zhou Jin, with a "I’m doing this for you, how great I am" annoying look, approached He Tiantian, saying he would replace her in the Northwest to ease her burden,
He Tiantian lightly stretched out a foot, directly kicking Zhou Jin out.
"Prince, you are too frail; how can you go to the Northwest in such condition?!"
