Lu Shen's eyes were red, her face full of grief: "Zhi Wan is my daughter, if I don't protect her, how can I protect you?"

"Liya! Zhiwan and the prince are already married, and you are still so aggressive. Aren't you afraid that the prince will cause trouble for you?"

When Xu Liya heard her mention Sheng Jing, the jealousy in her heart surged even more wildly.

"Aunt, what you said is really unreasonable. It was me who was engaged to the prince back then, and she was the one who shamelessly stole my person. Now you are blaming me, what is this?"

At that time, Xu Liya admired the scene when he was still a prince.

Because Xu's father was the prime minister, Xu Liya's twin sister married the prince and became the crown princess.

The Xu family is at its peak and has enormous power.

She fell in love with Sheng Jing, and no one thought it was wrong except Sheng Jing himself.

In other words, no one dared to object.

Everyone thought that Xu Liya must be the prince consort of Sheng Jing.

However, Lu Zhiwan suddenly appeared in the middle of the journey.

After the death of the previous emperor, Crown Prince Sheng Qian ascended the throne and became emperor. Prince Sheng Jing was named Prince Jing and Lu Zhiwan, the legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo, was granted the title of Prince Jing's Consort.

At that time, Sheng Jing was sixteen years old and Lu Zhiwan was fourteen years old.

Xu Liya is only one year younger than Lu Zhiwan.

Although the marriage was granted, the wedding date was still two years away.

Xu Liya was frantically looking for an opportunity to make the emperor revoke his decree of marriage.

She asked for help from her sister Xu Wenyin, who was already the queen.

Kneeled at the door of the Council Hall.

I asked my father, Prime Minister Xu, to put pressure on the emperor.

Kidnapping Lu Zhiwan, seducing Sheng Jing, all kinds of extreme means were used.

Even though his reputation was ruined, it still didn't change the outcome.

Sheng Jing was eighteen years old and Lu Zhiwan was sixteen years old, and they got married.

Ten miles of red wedding dress and the promise of growing old together made everyone envious.

After marriage, the two loved each other as much as ever and soon gave birth to a son, whom they named Sheng Yubai.

The more affectionate Sheng Jing and Lu Zhiwan were, the more jealous Xu Liya became.

In fact, the emperor's arrangement of marriage is just a formality.

Sheng Jing asked for Lu Zhiwan himself.

It was a marriage that the late emperor prayed for by kneeling outside the Council Hall for three days and three nights when he was still alive.

For this, he even gave up his position as the emperor.

I don't ask for the kingdom, I just ask for Lu Zhiwan.

The late emperor had no choice but to issue a secret decree.

This secret decree became the emperor's will after his death.

The new emperor ascended the throne and granted her marriage, and Sheng Jing's wish finally came true.

Xu Liya didn't understand where she lost, so she kept finding trouble for Sheng Jing and Lu Zhiwan.

She learned from her sister that the emperor had sent Sheng Jing to lead the Tiger Wing Army to suppress the refugees, and only then did she find the opportunity to come to the door.

She just wanted to wait for Lu Zhiwan to die, and after she died, the position of Prince Jing's Consort would be hers.

This idea has become her obsession, driving her crazy.

When she learned that Lu Zhiwan's child, a baby girl, had died, she went to provoke Lu Zhiwan.

It’s just a pity that Sheng Jing was there that time and Lu Zhiwan was not hurt.

Now that Sheng Jing is not here, let’s see who can protect her!

Lu Shenshi looked distressed and said, "It was the late emperor's will, and the prince asked for it himself. Even if Zhiwan wasn't there, do you think the prince would accept you?"

"Besides, the prince and Zhiwan are in love, how could you let her snatch yours away?"

"Everyone in the capital knows that the prince has never been interested in you. Why do you want to trap yourself in this?"

Lu Shen was the adopted daughter of the Shen family, the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery.

The eldest daughter of the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery married Prime Minister Xu Tiantai. Speaking of it, the Lu family and the Xu family are relatives because of Lu Shenshi.

Now one is my niece and the other is my own daughter.

Lu Shenshi could not accept the fact that her niece pointed at her own daughter and scolded her for seducing Sheng Jing.

Xu Liya looked unmoved: "Aunt, none of this happened, why do you need to say more."

Before Lu Shenshi could say anything, Lu Zhiwan came out.

"Mom, don't waste your words on her. No matter how much she does, it's all wishful thinking!"

"The relationship between the prince and I cannot be sown with just a few words. Yu Bai is already three years old, and she is still clinging to him. Am I the one who is embarrassed? Is it the prince's mansion? Or the Lu family?"

"Isn't it Prime Minister Xu who is embarrassed? Isn't it the Queen?"

"Everyone in the capital knows that I have been married to the prince for five years, and she has been entangled with him for five years. Yu Bai has been a bystander, but she is still thinking about other people's men. Who is the shameless one?"

"I heard that two years ago, someone came to your house to propose marriage, but now there is no one left, right? You ruined your own reputation, who can you blame?"

"You said I was shameless? I was personally asked by Sheng Jing, personally granted by His Majesty, personally welcomed by the palace, put on a jade plate, and married into the palace with a sedan chair carried by sixteen people and a red dress that was ten miles long."

"I have my parents' orders, the matchmaker's words, three matchmakers and six betrothals, three letters and six ceremonies, and all the procedures for a proper girl's marriage. What do you have?"

Lu Zhiwan looked at her with contempt: "Do you have a bad reputation? Or is your face thicker than a city wall?"

"Don't you know what people say about you? You are shameless, you don't follow the moral code of a woman, and you are trying to get close to the palace!"

"You, are you ashamed?"

Xu Liya felt dizzy and her blood was boiling with anger from Lu Zhiwan.

The hand pointing at Lu Zhiwan couldn't help but tremble: "Bitch..."

Lu Zhiwan raised her hand, broke off a branch, and swung it towards Xu Liya at an extremely fast speed.

"Snapped!"

There was a crisp sound of hitting.

The branch hit Xu Liya's raised hand, and it quickly became red and swollen.

"Bitch your mother!"

"You're a bitch no matter how you open your mouth. Which bitch taught you that?"

"Is it your father or your mother?"

Lu Zhiwan kept talking and her hands kept moving.

They were all offensive moves, and in just a few moves Xu Liya was beaten to the point where she had no power to fight back.

Xu Liya also knows some martial arts skills, but she is still far inferior to Lu Zhiwan, who comes from a military family.

"Hiss! You dare to hit me?" Xu Liya's eyes were wide open and she grimaced in pain.

She took advantage of Sheng Jing's absence and went to the house to cause trouble without bringing anyone with her, only a maid.

Chun Xian quickly stepped forward to block Xu Liya, looking at Lu Zhiwan warily: "How dare the princess lay hands on my young lady? Aren't you afraid that the queen will blame you?"

Lu Zhiwan glanced at her coldly and raised her hand to hit her.

"I beat her, didn't I beat her enough?"

"I'm going to beat you up today, so do you have any objection?"

Chunxian was hit on the arm. She withdrew her arm in pain and looked at Lu Zhiwan with fear.

"As for the Queen? She is a noble lady with many things to do. I'm afraid she won't be able to discipline you. I will discipline you on her behalf."

Lu Shenshi stepped forward and gently pulled Lu Zhiwan: "How can you talk like that? Do you think you can say that to the Queen?"

"And how could you do that? Liya is just talking, she won't really do it. We are sisters, and it will hurt our relationship if we do that."

Lu Zhiwan rolled her eyes and was too lazy to argue with Lu Shenshi.

She and her brother have heard these words too many times since they were young.

My father was stationed in Yanmen Mansion all year round and seldom came home. My mother had the final say in the family.
