Gu Ruanruan did vaguely hear the words "imperial edict" and "enter the palace".

She felt a little sour in her heart. She actually had a good impression of Xiao Ruoping, but she couldn't accept the three wives and four concubines of ancient men.

Forget it, Xiao Ruoping likes her sister, so she should tell him the good news first...

"Brother Ruoping! Daddy has entered the palace with the imperial edict!"

Xiao Ruoping immediately beamed with joy. Regardless of the wounds from the beating last night, he stood up and walked around, almost falling down.

"Hey! Be careful!"

"It's okay... I don't know what happened to my brother early this morning. He suddenly wanted to drill me. He hit me so hard that I thought he was going to beat me to death..."

Xiao Ruoping was still chattering, but Gu Ruanruan felt a little uneasy for no reason.

She felt that her sister had become different recently, but she couldn't tell what was different about her.

Seeing that Gu Ruanruan was a little unhappy, Xiao Ruoping asked: "What's wrong? Are you unhappy?"

"No." Gu Ruanruan forced a smile: "I just think everything is too easy."

Xiao Yanlin showed no signs of panic: "After the imperial edict, this matter is finalized. I can finally marry the one I love. I have to thank you for all this!"

……

Three days later, Xiao Yan, the Marquis of Zhenbei, came to a banquet to entertain everyone in the Prime Minister's Mansion.

Accompanied by his father and mother, Gu Baiyu arrived outside the Zhenbei Hou Mansion early in the morning.

Coming here again, Gu Baiyu looked at the familiar plants and trees and sighed in his heart.

There were no elders in the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and his father and mother had died long before Xiao Yanlin joined the army.

There are no elders in the family, and the eldest brother is the father. Gu Baiyu still remembers that on the second day of the wedding, she went to serve tea to Xiao Yanlin, but Xiao Yanlin refused to let her kneel down. After that, he was even more afraid of gossip, and after giving her the power of the housekeeper, he Rarely come back.

"Yu'er, why are you dazed? We're going in!"

Gu Baiyu retracted his thoughts and said, "I got it, mother."

As soon as they got off the horse, Xiao Yanlin was already waiting at the door of the house, and behind him was Xiao Ruoping, who was holding back his joy.

Xiao Ruoping only got the news this morning and thought it was the emperor who ventilated his brother in advance, so today's family dinner was held.

Seeing that Xiao Yanlin's expression was not unhappy, he put down his last precautions and just waited for today's marriage decree.

Gu Baiyu got off the carriage and didn't even look at Xiao Ruoping. No matter how Xiao Ruoping winked at her, he remained unmoved.

Gu Baiyu was followed by Gu Ruanruan.

Originally, according to the rules, concubines like Gu Ruan Ruan were not eligible to attend today, but when Gu Ruan Ruan Qiqi Ai Ai expressed her desire to come in the morning, Gu Baiyu agreed.

After all, she is also one of today's protagonists.

Gu Ruanruan was not in the mood to think too much at the moment. She suddenly discovered that the foreign man he saw that day was actually Zhenbei Hou Xiao Yanlin!

While the others were walking in front, Gu Ruanruan found an opportunity to whisper this matter to Xiao Ruoping.

Xiao Ruoping was overjoyed when he heard this: "We wrongly blamed her! Yu'er likes me, she must be looking for her eldest brother because of me!"

Seeing Xiao Ruoping so happy, Gu Ruanruan felt more and more strange the more he thought about it...

After entering the Marquis, it was lunch time. Everyone took their seats, and Xiao Yanlin personally invited the Prime Minister to take the seat of honor.

The Prime Minister was immediately more satisfied with his future son-in-law, and his stern face finally relaxed a little. When Xiao Yanlin toasted to him, he drank a glass of mercy.

As for Xiao Ruoping, he was a son of a concubine, so it would be nice to be able to serve on such an occasion. The Prime Minister still resented him for almost killing his daughter, so of course he would not drink the wine he offered.

He could only hold the wine glass and feel embarrassed alone. Gu Ruanruan on the side hesitated for a while, then raised the wine glass: "Dad is old and it is not appropriate to drink too much. I will drink this glass for dad."

Gu Baiyu watched from the side and did not stop him.

A concubine and a concubine can be regarded as fulfilling their status.

However, Gu Baiyu had just finished saying that the Prime Minister should not drink. Before he could sit down, the Prime Minister suddenly raised his wine glass and said, "Have a good day today. Marquis of Zhenbei, would you like to have another drink?"

Gu Baiyu finally couldn't hold it back and smiled a little.

What does it mean to humiliate yourself?

This is!

Another drink was finished, and just when Gu Ruanruan and Xiao Ruoping thought that the humiliation was finally over, Xiao Yanlin suddenly raised the glass again.

But this time, instead of respecting the prime minister, he respected Gu Baiyu.

"Miss Gu, I've heard of you a long time ago. Today we meet you for the first time. Let's have a glass of wine and please give me a favor."

Gu Baiyu picked up the wine glass and drank it all in one gulp: "In the future... please ask the Marquis of Zhenbei to take more care of you."

Xiao Ruoping watched the two drinking together, always feeling a little strange, but he couldn't tell what was strange, so he could only drink alone.

And Gu Ruanruan suddenly felt uneasy in his heart.

I hope she is overthinking...

No one at the table took these two people seriously. The two of them drank the glass of wine dryly and didn't want to talk anymore.

At the end of lunch, the porter suddenly came to report that the father-in-law in the palace had come to announce the decree.

Xiao Ruoping's eyes immediately burst out with light.

coming! Yu'er really likes him!

Gu Baiyu saw everything and remained silent.

Until Gong Gong came in to announce the decree, everyone knelt down to listen to the decree.

"By God's blessing, the emperor issued an edict: Gu Baiyu, the legitimate daughter of the Prime Minister, is virtuous and virtuous, and is beautiful and intelligent... I am very pleased to hear this, and I would like to propose marriage to Xiao Yanlin, the Marquis of the North, and I am responsible for choosing an auspicious day to get married!"

Gu Baiyu watched Xiao Ruoping kneeling in the hall, his expression changed from surprise to surprise. After reciting an imperial edict, his face was full of disbelief!

All he could think about were those few words - "Marriage to Marquis Zhenbei Xiao Yanlin"...

Xiao Yanlin...

How could he be the elder brother? !

Looking at Gu Ruan Ruan again, his expression was extremely ugly!

Gu Baiyu secretly laughed in her heart. People around her were not as good as she wanted, so she couldn't bear it anymore? !

But where is this?

Even after the announcement, Xiao Yanlin did not get up, as if he was still waiting for something.

Xiao Ruoping had just stood up when the father-in-law suddenly waved his hand: "Hey! You, the Marquis of Zhenbei, are blessed with great blessings. Good things come in pairs. You haven't finished reading this imperial edict yet!"

Xiao Ruoping didn't know why, but he still knelt down.

Gu Ruanruan on the side, the uneasiness in his heart has reached its peak...

"In addition, Gu Ruanruan, the concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, who has a good nature and good manners, specially gave Xiao Ruoping, the concubine of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, as... um..."

Eunuch Xuanzhi was stunned for a moment, as if he had seen something extraordinary. He coughed lightly and then continued: "I specially give Xiao Ruoping, the concubine of the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, as my concubine, and I will enter the manor every day. I appreciate this!"

After reading an imperial edict, Xiao Ruoping began to look dazed. It was wrong... it was all wrong...

And Gu Ruanruan had already collapsed on the spot!

No wonder... No wonder!

Thinking of the conversation she overheard that day, it turned out that her father went to the palace to ask for the imperial edict not for her sister, but for her!

Now the imperial decree granted her marriage and made her a concubine!

Unless the emperor issues another imperial edict in the future, she will only be someone else's concubine for the rest of her life!

She is a modern person who traveled through time, and she simply cannot accept ancient men having three wives and four concubines. Now, she is a mistress herself!

Gu Baiyu had enough of admiring her ugliness and helped her up with compassion: "Sister? What's wrong with you? This is a good thing! Don't you always like to be with Mr. Xiao?"

"The same goes for Young Master Xiao. My sister is from an ordinary background, but is knowledgeable, sensible, generous and gentle. She will definitely be able to help the Young Master. When you have a wife in the future, she will definitely serve the mistress well, right?"

Gu Ruanruan’s face has lost all color!

Yes, concubine, to put it harshly, is a servant! It's a cheap maid! He can be sold and executed at will by his wife!

Regardless of their reactions, Gu Baiyu turned to Xiao Yanlin and the Prime Minister and said, "Good things come in pairs today. Marquis Zhenbei and dad should go see your father-in-law off. My sister is so happy. I will accompany her well."

The Prime Minister's wife also went with her because she had an order, and there were only three of them left here.

The first person to react was Gu Ruanruan: "Sister! Did you ask dad to do this? Why are you doing this? Are you going to take revenge on me like this just because I asked you to elope that night?"

Here it comes again, again with this tone of voice where you clearly did something wrong but didn’t care...

"Have you ever thought about it, the world is harsh on women. If I were to elope and be discovered, I would die. Now I am just giving you a small punishment and a big warning, letting you be my concubine. If you don't want to, you can do it without even a divorce letter. Being able to be free, my sister has never been afraid of the secular world, she has just been a concubine, so what's the problem?"

"Besides, I can see that you are interested in Mr. Xiao. I am helping you! Just like you took it upon yourself to help me elope!"

She spoke sincerely, just like every time Gu Ruanruan admonished her, but Gu Ruanruan only felt cold all over.

Xiao Ruoping was stunned for a long time, and his emotions finally broke out: "What about me? Who am I? You want to marry the eldest brother?! Have you ever asked me if I said yes?!"

Gu Baiyu took a step back and looked at the furious man without any fear: "The man is unmarried and the woman is unmarried, of course I can marry him."

"By the way, there are no elders in the house. The eldest brother is like a father, and the eldest sister-in-law is like a mother. From now on, I will be the eldest sister-in-law of you two. I will sit in the main hall and be worshiped and served with tea by you. Please be respectful!"

Gu Baiyu really didn't care what kind of tea these two people served him, he just said it quickly and felt quite happy in his heart.

Sometimes you can't bear it anymore and you don't need to bear it anymore.

In her previous life, she had endured it. She even endured the sourness in her heart and asked her husband that if he really liked his concubine, she could abdicate in favor of someone better, just for the sake of happiness.

But the result?

These two people pretended to be generous, and would rather live together than lead an open and honest life, so they suffered her to die in this prince's mansion.

However, Gu Ruanruan also liked to play small tricks and win over the whole family to treat her as the mistress. They secretly scolded Gu Baiyu for occupying the position and not wanting to fulfill her wish.

This time she couldn't bear it anymore. She wanted to be Xiao Ruoping's eldest sister-in-law and the mistress of the Hou Mansion!

Gu Baiyu changed his usual humble attitude, and Xiao Ruoping stared at him like a stranger, shaking his head in disbelief: "You have changed, why have you become like this..."

"Whatever happens to her has nothing to do with you."

Xiao Yanlin's voice came from behind. He had sent the eunuch away, and the first thing he did after returning was to find the housekeeper.

"The second young master rushed to the distinguished guest and went to ask for help. All the servants stayed away."
