The heroine is so cute, she quickly puts on her clothes and lies down

It is said that he is working for the Second Prince, but in fact, in the entire Zhu family, there is only one person that the Second Prince has his eyes on, and that is Master Zhu.

The former Marquis of Anle, now the useless Mr. Zhu, said anxiously: "Mother, I can do something for you, sir. I already know my previous mistakes. I was too impatient and was caught by those villains!"

Master Zhu glanced at him with disdain and said, "Brother, you better save your breath. If something goes wrong again, we don't have another prince to cover for us."

Master Zhu's face flushed red as he fiercely retorted, "I am also doing this for the future of the Marquisate, Second Brother. If you just sit on the fence like a fence-sitter, wouldn't the Marquisate be in decline when the new emperor ascends the throne? Although... I have good intentions!"

Master Zhu: "How dare you say such shameless words? I don't need to save face for you, brother. You say I am a fence-sitter, and I laugh at you for not being able to see clearly. Your Majesty doesn't want to do something. Are you jumping up and down behind the scenes to revitalize the Marquisate or to kill everyone?"

"you you……"

Zhu Dananana didn’t know how to respond and stopped talking.

He always cares a lot about his face in front of his younger brother.

The old lady watched coldly, over the years, she had already seen clearly that the eldest son was stupid and didn't know it. The higher the position he was in, the more trouble he would get into. So after he inherited the title of Marquis, she never urged her son to do real work. The only requirement for him was to give birth to a legitimate son. After that, no matter how he lived a life of debauchery, the old lady would no longer care about him.

All our efforts are put into cultivating the next generation.

This son made her very disappointed, but fortunately her second son looked like her.

"Second brother, there is an old man in Youzhou, Master Pei, who once taught the current and second princes. You should go visit him tomorrow."

Master Zhu agreed.

The old lady said almost nothing extra. Before she waved her hand and asked Qiluo to arrange for everyone to go down, her last words were, "Shen and Liu, go to the back house to buy some things and add more people. The steward, you two should come with us."

The two people's reactions were different. Shen was secretly dissatisfied but did not dare to say it directly, while Liu was so happy that she was silly and quickly agreed.

This is a signal, representing that the mansion will shift from being dominated by the first wife to being dominated by the second wife.

If Mr. Zhu II holds up the current situation, the second house will become the main force.

Zhu Yue and Zhu Wan were arranged to live in adjacent pavilions, and Zhu Yue lived in the gorgeous and exquisite Zhaixing Tower.

As soon as he entered the mansion, before he had time to arrange for the servants, Zhu Yue blew out the candles, plunging the room into darkness, and then entered the space.

I took a nice bath first, changed into soft and comfortable pajamas, and lay down on the big bed for a while.

Zhu Yue's tiredness had just been relieved. After eating a portion of fried chicken, he was in the mood to think about the information he had just heard.

Since entering the city, Zhu Yue has been repeating in her heart: Wow, wow, and this luxurious mansion. Who would believe that this is a place of exile?

"The old lady is very good at hiding things. No wonder she was so calm all the way. I thought she was in such poor health that she would not live long."

Thinking of the old lady's wealthy face, Zhu Yue put down the milk tea in her hand. In fact, it was not only the old lady, but also Zhu Yin and Zhu Wan whose faces were extraordinary.

Zhu Wan in particular was different every time Zhu Yue saw her. The first time she saw her, she didn't have the appearance of a person with longevity. After she used spiritual water and took medicine from time to time during this period, her appearance changed from one of short life to one of long life.

However, after entering this mansion today, she saw that the fates of Zhu Wan and her brother Zhu Yin had changed. Not only them, but the fates of all the people in the Zhu family had changed. She even wanted to find a mirror to see what her face looked like now.

The difference between now and the previous journey is that there is an additional variable: the Second Prince.

Zhu Yue didn't think much about it, as these things had little to do with her.

But...sometimes things don't always go as planned.

-

On the second day, the morning light was just right, so Zhu Yue and Zhu Wan sat in the pavilion to enjoy the flowers.

They were discussing how to eat.

"Miss, Miss, something bad has happened!"

"The old lady wants to give the second young lady to the second prince as... as... as a concubine..."

Bai Lu ran over anxiously and quickly reported the news from the main courtyard to Zhu Yue.

"What?!" Zhu Wan stood up in shock, no longer able to maintain her dignity.

Zhu Yue remained calm.

Clearly, the old lady didn't have this idea yesterday.

"Bai Lu, go find out who brought this up first."

The girl was dressed in elegant green, with a slender and flexible figure, fair skin, lightly drawn eyebrows, and a pair of clear eyes. As she looked around, Zhu Wan could not help but stare at her in amazement. With such appearance and temperament, it was rare to find a woman who could compare with the second sister, even in the whole Shengjing.

Zhu Wan didn't believe it and was unwilling to believe that the old lady actually promised the daughter of the marquis's mansion to someone as a concubine. What a huge shame!

Bai Lu hurried to the main courtyard to inquire about the truth.

"Big sister, don't worry. Things may not be settled. Now I am no longer the daughter of the Marquis's family. I could have been his principal wife with my original status. Now, he can only take me as a concubine. If I really become a concubine, it would be my grandmother and my second uncle who would be embarrassed."

Zhu Yue analyzed the pros and cons for her. She felt that this matter was suspicious and most likely someone was playing tricks.

"You make sense." Zhu Wan gradually calmed down and was no longer as flustered as before.

“But, since Yue’er won’t make it, we have to be on guard against this kind of thing. Grandmother doesn’t like mother, and as a result, she is not close to you and me. Only Yin’er is not affected for some reason. My marriage was arranged by grandma…” Zhu Wan thought of her previous husband and in-laws, tears flashed in her eyes, and she suppressed her sobs.

"That family appears to be normal on the surface, but their private family traditions are extremely shady. After what happened to me, every day feels like a year. If I didn't have evidence against that family, they would not have let me go. Now I have to continue struggling in that hellish place."

Zhu Wan held her hand, which was extremely cold, just like her heart which was also cold when she thought of the past.

"So, grandma won't care about your marriage at all. You are already of age. If mother were still alive, she would have found someone for you now. It would be just right to wait for two years before setting an engagement. All the details would be known by then. However, grandma won't spend that much time on us. Shen is watching from the side with ill intentions. I am only worried about you, so that you don't have to endure as many hardships as I did."

Zhu Yue listened carefully, held her hand in return and smiled softly at her.

"Sister, don't worry. The marriage they arranged is not what I want. I will not marry. At worst, I will run away with you."

Zhu Wan smiled, her eyelashes slightly wet.

"We are two weak women. How are we supposed to survive without our father and his family? Stop talking nonsense like this."
