Chapter 128 - 98 Empress Luo Wanqing_2
After the late Emperor passed away, a highly chaotic struggle for succession known as the "Nine Dragons’ Fight for Inheritance" took place.
At that time, Zhou Chang, who was the frailest in terms of power, decided to win over the Luo Family, which was quite influential in the court and political arena, to emerge victorious from this "Nine Princes’ Fight for Inheritance." Hence, he married Luo Wanqing, the precious daughter of the Luo Family, to form an alliance with them.
Seeking revenge on Jiang Wan, Luo Wanqing agreed to this marriage, marrying a man she did not love.
Before the wedding, Luo Wanqing made Zhou Chang swear that he would never have any entanglements with Jiang Wan in the future, or she would not agree to the marriage. However, in the end, Zhou Chang broke his oath and had clandestine dealings with Jiang Wan.
Upon learning of this, Luo Wanqing was furious and openly sought to annul the betrothal.
Only after persuasion from Mr. Luo and after Jiang Wan married into the Ran Family did she reluctantly complete the marriage with Zhou Chang.
After Zhou Chang successfully seized the throne, she smoothly became the Empress.
But those who knew the inside story were aware that although they were husband and wife, Luo Wanqing lived alone since marriage, even as Empress, she chose to reside in the Fengluan Palace, maintaining an attitude of having nothing to do with each other until death.
In her own words: "You touched that woman Jiang Wan, I find it repulsive!"
This illustrated the extent of her hatred for Jiang Wan.
