After my rebirth, I became the white moonlight in the Beijing circle

I know that the Crown Prince's wife came up with this compromise to mediate for me, but it would have been fine if she just asked Huai Xi to be her concubine, but she also forced the colorful butterfly beside her on me. What's the logic behind this?

Just as Lu Linchu was about to explain, Lu Chen spoke in a solemn voice, "Yun'er is kind and considerate, and always thinks about your husband. Your mother and I are naturally pleased. Caidie and Wanniang are the concubines you have chosen for the prince, so there is nothing wrong with that."

After saying this, he looked at Lu Linchu fiercely and snorted with disdain: "It's just that this daughter of the Chu family is really of no character and no moral integrity. Chu Qinghe is really a bad parent. She tried so hard to please the prince with evil intentions."

Seeing that his father was very dissatisfied, Lu Linchu immediately explained: "Why do you say that, father? Huaixi is just grateful to me for saving her father. She feels that she has no way to repay me, so she wants to stay by my side and serve me."

"You are now a married man and a father of two children. Are you still so naive and gullible?"

Lu Chen said angrily: "Everyone can see through her thoughts, but you are the only one who indulges in them."

As he spoke, he told Lu Linfeng what he had reported about the woman's search for Doctor Xue to have her face replaced. Finally, he glared at Lu Linchu in anger.

"Pass on this king's order. Chu Qinghe, the county lieutenant of Lancheng, has no good way of educating his daughter. He disregards etiquette and laws and has bad intentions. He will be arrested and imprisoned immediately. He will be exiled to the north for 3,000 miles to correct the customs of the people. His daughter will be punished as a lowly slave and serve as a maid in the prince's bedroom. She will never be able to turn over a new leaf."

After saying this, he bent down heavily and looked his son in the face: "This way, she will serve my son diligently. Is your Highness satisfied?"

"Father, how can you be so cruel and heartless?"

Lu Linchu gritted his teeth in pain.

Lu Chen was too lazy to pay attention to him and left angrily.

Fu Guiyun secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She thought she was cruel enough, but she didn't expect that her father-in-law was even more cruel than herself. Not only did he ruin Chu Huaixi's future, but also her father's future.

In this case, she might never have the chance to be the Crown Prince's second wife again.

Ye Zhilan was very happy in his heart, and he also didn't want to pay attention to his son. He took Fu Guiyun's arm and went out. As he walked, he said happily: "Fangyi is a good girl. She got pregnant so quickly. Your hard work was not in vain."

Fu Guiyun nodded: "Aunt Fang has always been a considerate and thoughtful person. She has served the prince wholeheartedly. It is a blessing for her to be pregnant."

"Yes, this girl is indeed docile and well-behaved."

Ye Zhilan never cared about these concubines, so he naturally didn't know the complaints in Fangyi's heart. Anyway, as long as his daughter-in-law thought it was good, then it was good. As usual, he asked Madam Jiang to get five hundred taels of silver and some brocade jewelry as rewards for Fangyi.

Then he took her to Changchun Palace.

Lu Linfeng and Lu Linzhi watched silently, and smiled knowingly. They glanced at Lu Linchu who had a sullen look on his face, bowed and left.

When they arrived at Changchun Palace, Ye Zhilan asked Madam Kong to find the deeds of all the shops in Lancheng and hand them over to Fu Guiyun, and also rewarded him with a hundred pieces of Liyang Yuhua brocade that the Ye family had just woven this year.

"Mother, I heard that you have several old friends in Lancheng. You don't have to be shy about anything. Although Lancheng is near Liyang, any disturbance will not escape the sight of our Ye family."

Ye Zhilan said with a half-smile: "After all, they are your old friends, Yun'er. Since they have come to Jiangzuo, they are guests of the Ye and Lu families. How can we treat them unfairly? You can rest assured to let them come out and walk around. As long as they are in the territory of Lancheng, mother will protect them."

Fu Guiyun heard that her mother-in-law was talking about the people in the Earl's Mansion. She was surprised and apologized quickly: "I shouldn't have concealed it from my mother, but this matter is of great importance..."

Before she finished speaking, Ye Zhilan smiled and waved his hand: "Who doesn't have a few people they care about in their life? You and that Prince Song at least have some friendship. Your father and I feel guilty for breaking up your marriage and asking you to serve such a playboy at home."

After a moment of silence, she continued, "Besides, it is not a wise move for the emperor to exterminate the entire Song family in anger. Even though Song Weizhao was defeated, his prestige in the northern countries is still there. He is indeed talented, otherwise a princess would not have fallen in love with him. He will probably avenge the extermination of his family no matter what. Leaving the Earl's Mansion and his wife behind may help to reduce the killing in the future."

I didn't expect my mother-in-law to have such a long-term vision and be able to see this. Fu Guiyun admired her and asked suspiciously, "Should I tell my father about this?"

"Why tell him that? He's just an old fogey."

Ye Zhilan patted her palm gently and smiled very gently: "You and I know this, but since Lin Zhi has made the arrangement, if there is really something wrong, it should be attributed to the Liren Gang."

Fu Guiyun glanced at her with a smile and nodded, "Yes."

I also know that my mother-in-law made this matter clear to me in order to reduce my burden and to make life smoother for the four members of the Song family.

"Alright, alright, don't hold a grudge against this matter. You have always acted for a reason, and I believe that. Even Lin Zhi is willing to help you this time, so how can I be afraid of putting the Ye Family and the Palace at risk?"

Ye Zhilan didn't mean to threaten her when he mentioned this. This girl was smart and acted cautiously, but she forgot one thing. This was Liyang City after all. If she had to live in fear at her doorstep like she did in Yundu City, what was the point of having all this wealth and glory?

She loved and cared for him like his own biological mother, which touched Fu Guiyun even more.

However, Fu Guiyun felt guilty that she could not consummate her marriage with the prince as she wished and add a legitimate heir to the royal family.

Thinking of this, she quietly leaned into her mother-in-law's arms and said softly, "I failed to help Aunt Ji give birth to the baby in her belly. I really failed my mother's love. This time, I will not let Aunt Fang have any mistakes again."

"Don't take all the blame on yourself, kid."

Ye Zhilan patted her shoulder and patiently advised: "It's rare that you are willing to respect the maid around you. Jichun is not a worry-free person. How can she make a living in the backyard with her personality? You can't always rely on you, the prince's consort, to protect her for her whole life. There is no such logic in the world. Respecting her is a blessing she can't even ask for. If she can't grasp this blessing herself, it's her own fate."

After thinking for a while, Ye Zhilan sighed helplessly: "In the end, it was because of my mother's soft-heartedness and lack of determination and ability that I failed to get rid of Yunling earlier. If you always feel bad about this, bring Jichun and his two brothers to Liyang and find them a job. This way, you can have two more close friends around you."

"it is good."

Fu Guiyun had originally had this idea, and now that her mother-in-law had spoken, she agreed.

Thinking of Fang Yi's pregnancy, Ye Zhilan suddenly frowned: "Yun'er, you and that evil creature had already consummated your marriage before returning to Yundu, why is there no movement?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he looked at her belly and asked, "Could it be that the evil creature was just being perfunctory and not putting his heart into it?"

What you fear will come true. She suddenly talked about something she was afraid of. Fu Guiyun's face turned red and she didn't know how to respond for a moment.
