The imperial concubine sat on the beauty's couch, holding a sleeve stove in her hand, and said calmly: "Why are you looking for me this time?"

Although they are both sisters, the imperial concubine has never had a good impression of her sister.

Apart from troubling her and asking her for help when something happens, it is of no use at all.

Knowing the reason, the imperial concubine frowned.

Now that the emperor has not been to her for several months, if she goes there for someone the emperor hates, it will only make the emperor unhappy.

She practiced Bingxi hard just to shine on New Year's Eve and win the emperor's favor.

She was not willing to go to the emperor for this matter at all, and sent him away with a perfunctory promise that he would ask the emperor for her.

"Mother, the meal is ready." Chunxiao walked in.

The imperial concubine looked coldly at the plain tofu, boiled green vegetables, white steamed buns, pickles, and white porridge on the table. She had no appetite at all.

For several months, in order to make herself thinner and thinner so that she can dance better, the imperial concubine has not touched any fish or meat in these few months.

His stomach seemed to have never been full, which showed his determination.

Because Xu Youran's face was so swollen, she didn't dare to go out for several days. She didn't meet Prince Qin until her face was almost healed.

The prince looked at the curtain on Xu Youran's face in confusion, and reached out to take it off: "Why are you wearing this?"

Xu Youran ducked away in shock, mumbling: "It's okay, it's just a bit cold."

Hearing that this was an excuse, the prince pulled down her curtain in confusion, and when he saw the fingerprints on her face, his face suddenly darkened.

"Who hit me?"

After these days of getting along, the prince really regards Xu Youran as his own woman.

He had also lived for such a long time, and for the first time he was interested in a woman. Now that he saw her being beaten, he was naturally angry.

Xu Youran covered her face and lowered her head: "I accidentally knocked it. It will be fine in two days."

"You still want to fool me with such an obvious slap mark? Is it your sister-in-law again?"

Everyone outside knew that the Xu family had Xu Jinyi, but they had never seen her.

Some people said she was ugly and dared not come out to meet people, some said she was sick and could not breathe, and some said she was as beautiful as a fairy.

However, everyone sneers at the saying that beauty is as beautiful as a fairy.

If she is as beautiful as a fairy, how could no one know about it and keep it hidden?

Xu Youran shook his head with an aggrieved look.

"Come on, take me to see your sister-in-law. I want to see what kind of vicious woman she is."

How could Xu Youran give the prince a chance to see Xu Jinyi? She shook her head: "No, this time it's really my fault. It has nothing to do with my sister."

"I did something wrong. I don't blame my sister."

Xu Youran is also very powerful. The first sentence said that it had nothing to do with Xu Jinyi, and the next sentence said that he did not blame her.

Then the reason was revealed.

The prince was moved when he learned that Xu Youran was beaten because he wanted to pave the way for himself.

But he also raised doubts: "But can your sister, a woman, convince all those ministers to support me?"

"My sister's face is indeed charming. If you use it well, your chances of ascending to the throne will be greatly improved."

"really?"

Xu Youran nodded.

The Crown Prince held Xu Youran's hand and pulled her into his arms: "If it really succeeds, the position of Crown Princess Youran will definitely belong to you."

"When the time comes, you and I will own the world together."

Xu Youran nestled in his arms shyly, with a blush on her face.

"Don't worry, His Highness, my father will definitely agree to this plan. Just wait, Your Majesty."

The Wu family thought it would take at least some time before Prime Minister Xu would agree to marry Xu Jinyi to the Wu family as a concubine.

Unexpectedly, he changed his mind in just ten days.

Because Prime Minister Xu is really afraid that if this continues, he will have no place in the court.

There is nothing wrong with sacrificing an unpopular daughter to help him advance.

Prime Minister Xu thought this, without any trace of guilt in his eyes.

Wu's mother and daughter were not only happy, Xu Youran even brought people to Xu Jinyi's side again.

"Everyone of you, please listen to me. The eldest lady is not allowed to step out of the room."

"In three days, the eldest lady will marry into the Wu family and become Aunt Xu. If she escapes, you know what will happen."

"You've already taken good care of her."

After arranging for someone to watch, Xu Youran stepped into Xu Jinyi's room.

Xu Jinyi looked directly at her: "I want to see my father."

Xu Youran sat down: "Just give up. Dad won't see you. He also told you to be obedient. The Wu family won't treat you badly when you marry."

Xu Jinyi pointed the scissors at her face: "Okay, then you can carry my body to the Wu house."

Xu Youran was anxious. The prince had promised her the position of the prince's concubine. If Xu Jinyi died, how could she still be the prince's concubine?

If it weren't for Xu Jinyi's usefulness, Xu Youran wouldn't care about her life or death.

It would be better if she was dead!

But not now, at least until the crown prince ascends to that position and she ascends to the throne of queen.

After that, she definitely let Xu Jinyi know what life was worse than death.

Fearing that Xu Jinyi would die, Xu Youran shouted anxiously: "Xu Jinyi, are you willing to die like this?"

"This is nothing like your mother."

Xu Jinyi was startled, mother, her mother died when she was very young, Xu Youran was younger than her, how could she possibly know.

Xu Youran raised the corners of her lips: "Don't you want to see your mother?"

Although her mother had said that she could not say that the woman was still alive unless she had to.

But Xu Youran believes that Xu Jinyi must have faith in living so that he can help her better.

It is not good for a person to have no care in this world.

Only with hatred, expectation, hope and faith can we live a better life.

With a hostage in hand, how could Xu Jinyi be obedient?

Xu Jinyi's eyes widened in disbelief: "What did you say?"

"Isn't my mother dead?"

"Have you seen it with your own eyes? If you want your mother to be well, just shut up and be obedient."

With such words and Xu Jinyi standing there stunned, Xu Youran asked someone to lock the door and leave.

However, she was still afraid that something would go wrong with Xu Jinyi, so she called Su Mian in to keep an eye on her.

"Miss, are you okay? What did the second lady say? Are you really going to marry the Wu family as a concubine?"

Seeing Xu Jinyi standing there looking strange, Su Mian spoke worriedly.

"Mianmian, how many years have you been in the mansion? How much do you know about my mother?"

Although Su Mian didn't know why Xu Jinyi suddenly asked about his wife who had passed away many years ago, she still told her what she knew.

"I was bought into the mansion after my wife passed away. Regarding Madam, I only heard what a few old people in the mansion said before."
