I just want to rob you of your luck

Lin Jiuer said with emotion: "I know that Madam is doing this for my own good, but I can't bear to leave Madam. Xia Liu has always admired the prince, so why not let Sister Xia Liu be the prince's concubine?"

Zhou was very angry, but she couldn't show it.

The people she chose were naturally those with outstanding looks and figures, otherwise how could they compete with Mrs. Deng for her son's favor.

Although Xia Liu is not bad, her appearance is a bit ordinary after all, and can only be considered pretty.

The original owner's impression of Xia Liu was that the two of them were taken in by the marquis's wife as maids, and they had a good relationship on weekdays.

But later, before her death, she realized that she had often flattered the original owner in front of the lady, just because she was jealous of the original owner being chosen as the prince's concubine.

This ultimately led to the lady being so cruel to killing the original owner.

Since she likes the prince so much, I might as well help her.

Lin Jiuer gave Xia Liu a look, meaning that I can only help you up to this point, you can handle the rest on your own.

Xia Liu looked at Lin Jiuer in shock. How did she know what she was thinking? After seeing Lin Jiuer's suggestive look, she reacted instantly.

She gritted her teeth and walked directly to Zhou and knelt down: "Madam, I am willing to be the maidservant of the prince and take good care of him for you, madam."

The calm expression on Zhou's face could hardly be maintained. These two damn girls were almost pissing her off to death.

Xia Liu also took the risk and continued with a shy face: "I have been secretly in love with the prince for many years. I beg Madam to fulfill my wish."

Zhou didn't expect that such a simple thing would end up like this.

But these two were her closest maids, so she couldn't scold them for this matter.

Zhou's eyes glanced back and forth between Lin Jiuer and Xia Liu several times, and finally she sighed helplessly.

Xia Liu said so, but Lin Jiuer was unwilling. If she did not agree to Xia Liu, and forced Lin Jiuer to serve the prince, in the end the two maids would become alienated from her, which would be bad.

Zhou secretly hated him and sighed helplessly.

"You two little girls really make it difficult for me. Well, since Xia Liu is willing, you will go to the prince's courtyard to serve from tomorrow. I will have someone arrange a room for you there, and you will be the prince's maid from now on."

Xia Liu kowtowed three times in joy: "Thank you, Madam, for your help."

Zhou looked at Lin Jiuer with a serious look and said, "Jiuer, go back and rest first. I still have something to tell Xia Liu."

"Yes, ma'am."

Lin Jiuer bowed politely and then walked out.

Today's hurdle has been temporarily overcome, but it seems that the Marquis's wife has been completely offended.

No master would like a disobedient servant, as he will probably suffer in the future.

Lin Jiuer returned to her room and began to think.

To rob the Marquis's wife of her luck, one would have to make her lose the things she cares about most, make her lose her composure and make more mistakes, and finally make her lose everything.

The two things that the Marquis' wife cared about most were her status as a Marquis' wife and her only son.

And there is undoubtedly only one person in the Marquis' Mansion who can help her change this situation, and that is Jiang Cheng, Marquis of Dingyuan.

The original owner didn't have much memory of the Marquis, but judging from the age of the Marquis's wife, it was estimated that the Marquis was also an old man.

Do you want her to seduce a man who can be her father?

Lin Jiuer still felt a little resistant in her heart. She preferred men who were the same age as her or younger.

It's too big for her and she feels she can't handle it.

But if she didn't do this, she, a weak woman, would be isolated and helpless, and sooner or later she would be sent to the prince's bed by the marquis's wife.

If I resist too fiercely and anger the Marquis's wife, she might sell her to a brothel and I'd be finished.

Lin Jiuer made up her mind and tried her best to complete the task.

Isn't he just an old man? I don't believe that even though I, a beautiful girl, have thrown myself into his arms, I can't handle this old man!

Now that she had already thought of a plan, she decided to act immediately. Lin Jiuer first searched for information about Marquis Dingyuan from the original owner's memory.

Some useful information was filtered out from it.

Marquis Dingyuan was a military general who was in charge of the large camp in the suburbs of Kyoto. He spent half of his time training troops in the camp in the suburbs of Kyoto and did not spend much time at home.

Among them, there was one piece of information that she found very useful, which was that the Marquis and the Crown Prince both liked to eat a dessert called Butterfly Pastry.

In the previous life, the original owner relied on this plate of dessert to conquer the prince's heart and became his favorite concubine.

But in this life, she will not make snacks for that bastard prince. Her target is his father!

It just so happened that she also knew how to make butterfly cakes, and Marquis Dingyuan happened to be in the mansion these days.

Lin Jiuer did what she said and went straight to the small kitchen used by the servants and made a plate of butterfly cakes herself.

In the evening, Lin Jiuer found the Marquis' study based on her memories of her previous life, and saw that the light was on.

She knocked on the door and heard a deep and rich voice saying "Come in". She suddenly felt a little nervous.

But I still mustered up the courage and walked in with the snacks.

Jiang Cheng was reading a military book. He looked up at the person who came with an unhappy expression.

Lin Jiuer mustered up her courage and walked over and placed the snacks on the table in front of Jiang Cheng.

Jiang Cheng's eyes were solemn, and suddenly he sneered, as if he had seen through Lin Jiuer's thoughts.

Lin Jiuer lowered her head and dared not look at the man in front of her. She felt as if she had been stripped naked, with nowhere to hide.

The old man was indeed very oppressive, worthy of being the emperor's close minister, with a sharp gaze.

At this time, Lin Jiuer saw the Marquis picked up a piece of butterfly pastry and started eating it.

After finishing one piece in a short while, Lin Jiuer breathed a sigh of relief.

Maybe it was because the butterfly pastry tasted good, or maybe the Marquis felt better after eating the sweets.

His tone softened a bit.

"Who asked you to come here?"

Lin Jiuer hurriedly replied: "I came here by myself. I heard that the Marquis likes to eat butterfly cakes, so I made some specially for him.

The Marquis is loyal to the emperor and patriotic, and is a hero in the hearts of the people. I heard that there have been constant disputes in the court recently. I think the Marquis must be worried about the affairs of the court and has no appetite for food.

I cannot help you, but I just want to do something within my power to make you feel better."

After saying that, Lin Jiuer carefully raised her eyes and glanced at Jiang Cheng, and saw that he was looking at her with a smile.

Lin Jiuer lowered her head shyly. This was her first time observing Marquis Dingyuan up close.

Although he is already middle-aged, he does not look like those greasy middle-aged men today.

The years have not left many traces on his face, but instead have added to his calm and restrained charm of a mature man.

Although he was sitting, one could tell that he was of strong build and in good shape, with an aura of majesty that came from his appearance.

Jiang Cheng is a handsome man, who looks to be around thirty years old, with an angular face that exudes a heroic air.

No wonder the Marquis's wife loved her husband so much, but Marquis Dingyuan was always cold and indifferent to her.

I heard that their marriage was arranged by the Marquis' elders. The Marquis was still on the battlefield at the time, and was forced to marry his wife when he returned.

Lin Jiuer felt her heart pounding uncontrollably.

She wanted to take back what she had said about the Marquis being an old man. She was determined to marry this handsome uncle!

It's not just to complete the task. She works so hard on the task, isn't it okay for her to get some benefits for herself?
