Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

When Yixiu heard him calling her name directly, she subconsciously wanted to stop him.

But it's too late.

"Yixiu, when I was little, my eyes always followed you and my fourth brother. Others said that you and my fourth brother were a loving couple, a perfect match made in heaven. But I know that you don't like my fourth brother."

"You two can be together because of the Emperor's will, but how can an imperial decree be stronger than human hearts?"

Yixiu's expression was somewhat stern.

"Fourteenth brother, you've drunk too much."

"I didn't!" Yunyu defended, "I was speaking from the heart."

"you listen to me."

Although Yunli was very emotional, his eyes were as scorching and bright as fire.

"Yixiu, I like you. I have liked you for a long, long time."

“I know this is wrong, but I won’t accept it.”

"I can't bear the thought that you will never know my heart."

"You've been so close to me my whole life, but I can only keep these feelings deep in my heart. I'm unwilling to accept this."

Yixiu never thought that Yunli would express his feelings so bluntly in such a situation.

Her lips trembled slightly, and she wanted to say something to stop Yunli, but her throat seemed to be choked by something, and she couldn't make a sound for a while.

After her rebirth, she has never thought about love between men and women.

She didn't even have such thoughts about Yinzhen, so how could she have such thoughts about Yunli?

Many moments flashed back in her mind.

It turned out that the moment that she thought was ordinary at the time actually concealed so many thoughts of Yunli.

She thought it was just the feeling between a younger brother and an older sister. After all, Yunli was the child she watched grow up.

But she didn't expect Yunli to have such thoughts about her.

"Fourteenth brother, what I said today..." Yixiu's voice was trembling.

Yunli seemed to be trapped in his own emotional whirlpool, unable to extricate himself.

He took a step forward, approached Yixiu, and interrupted Yixiu with a look of pain and persistence in his eyes.

"Yi Xiu, I have been suppressing myself. I have tried hard to be a good brother and a subject, but I am really in pain. Every time I see you in this deep palace, I feel like my heart is torn apart."

"My brother is suspicious of you and me now. I know you don't have any thoughts about me. It's my fault. I can't control it."

Yixiu's voice was a little colder: "I am the queen, your brother's wife."

"You said you like me, so you want to bring disaster to me?"

She almost shouted the last sentence.

Yunli shook his head, and there seemed to be a little tears in his eyes.

Yixiu looked at Yunli with mixed feelings.

Both of them were silent for a moment.

"Fourteenth brother, let's just pretend that we never said anything tonight. We still need to return to our respective positions. You must remember your responsibilities and mission, and don't ruin yourself because of a momentary impulse."

Yunyu nodded, his voice a little hoarse: "Okay, sister-in-law, I understand."

"I don't have any servants with me today, so I won't send Prince Xun off."

Yunli left alone.

Yixiu looked at his back.

Jianqiu couldn't help but step forward and said, "Empress, the Fourteenth Master is so unruly. He was drunk and ran around the palace. Didn't the Fourteenth Master say anything inappropriate to you?"

Yi Xiu smiled faintly and said, "He just said that he was suffering from the cold at the border and wanted to return to the capital."

Jian Qiu nodded: "That's good, but these words should not be said by the Fourteenth Master. The Emperor is somewhat suspicious of the Fourteenth Master. If he hears these words, I'm afraid he will think that the Fourteenth Master really has some thoughts."

"Don't tell anyone about what happened today."

Yixiu and her servant hurried back to Jingren Palace.

Although it was a New Year's Eve banquet, apart from hosting the banquet, their palace only hung some red lanterns and decorated it with a slightly festive atmosphere.

Yixiu sighed slightly.

Jianqiu came over and asked, "Is the Queen still going to stay up all night?"

Yixiu waved her hand, "I need to rest now."

-----------------

Concubine Hua in Yikun Palace has been under house arrest for nearly half a year.

During this period, the emperor never mentioned her once, and people in the palace began to secretly speculate whether the emperor had forgotten Concubine Hua.

However, a new wave is taking place in another unnoticed corner of the capital.

Although the leader looked a little haggard and his figure was no longer as tall as before, the majesty that inadvertently revealed in his eyes still made people recognize him as the former Crown Prince Yunreng.

Inside Yunreng's palace, the light was dim and the air was filled with the smell of alcohol. Yunreng sat at the top and his personal servants stood below. They could see Yunreng drunk almost every day during these days.

After three rounds of drinking, Yunreng's cheeks flushed, and his eyes gradually became confused and crazy. He slammed the table, causing the people below to tremble and then quickly recover. Then Yunreng loudly rebuked:

"Hmph, that Yinzhen! How could he dare to ascend the throne? Back then, as the crown prince, I devoted my life to the Qing Dynasty. Yinzhen just used some shameful schemes behind the scenes to steal the throne!"

Because of drinking all day, Yunreng's voice became hoarse with anger, echoing in this small tavern, and every word seemed to carry deep resentment.

A thin man with twinkling eyes beside him quickly came closer and whispered, "Master, be careful with your words! Now that the situation has been determined, we should be careful. If someone with ulterior motives hears it, I'm afraid it will cause trouble again."

Yunreng pushed him away and sneered disdainfully: "What are you afraid of? I just can't stand Yinzhen's hypocritical face. Does he think he can sit on the throne and rest assured? I want to see how long he can sit in this position safely!"

Yunreng's face flushed, and he described Yinzhen's various "evil deeds" with gesticulations.

"Back then, I was in charge of government affairs and did my best, but what about Yinzhen? On the surface, he was very respectful to me, but secretly he was trying to win people's hearts and form cliques for personal gain.

"He cultivated his own power in the court and repeatedly undermined my decisions. During the disaster relief in Jiangnan, I had a thorough plan, but he intervened and deliberately tripped me up from behind, making my efforts go to waste. He just wanted to show off his ability in front of the Emperor so that he could replace him!"

Yunreng spoke with saliva flying, his eyes flashing with anger and unwillingness.

Some of the people around him had worried looks on their faces and shook their heads frequently; others had flickering eyes and were secretly calculating their own gains and losses in their hearts.

At this moment, in the corner of the door, an inconspicuous figure appeared and wandered at the door of the palace...
