Traveling through the Poisonous Concubine

Yun Yuxi soon learned a lot of things from Aunt Lan. Her eyes were spitting fire and she was extremely angry. She swore in her heart that her stepfather and Liu would be killed without a burial place.

Yun Yuxi quickly gave Aunt Lan acupuncture. She knew that time was limited and Liu would definitely find out if it took too long, so she asked Yun Chudai to take good care of Aunt Lan.

Aunt Lan finally let go of her worries. She got Yun Yuxi's assurance and could leave with peace of mind. Yun Yuxi told her that there were still three months left. Aunt Lan was not surprised because she knew her body very well.

"Chu Dai, will you obey your second sister in everything from now on? When mother is gone, you can go to her if you have any problems. She promised me that she would protect you and Xuan'er. You must remember not to betray her."

"Mother, I've got this in mind. This is the medicine my second sister left behind. Please take it quickly," Yun Chudai said, trying to hold back her tears.

"Chu Dai, mother is just worried about you and your sister. Remember to listen to your second sister," Aunt Lan said with tears dripping down her cheeks.

Yun Yuxi took Yuelan with her and pretended to walk in the garden to avoid Liu's suspicion.

Yun Jinxi looked at Yun Yuxi in the garden and hurried over with her maid.

"Hey, second sister, you're back. I meet you, elder sister."

Yun Yuxi was surprised by the sudden enthusiasm, only to see Yun Jinxi bowing with a smile.

"Oh, it's my sister. I'm so happy today because there's something happy going on. I've never seen you act so polite before."

"Second sister, you are joking. You are now a princess. You are also the Protector of the Country County Lady appointed by His Majesty. I can't wait to curry favor with you. I was ignorant before. I hope I will forgive you if I offended you."

"Yun Jinxi, stop pretending. What kind of person are you? Don't you know what's going on? Stop disgusting me here. Just tell me what you want to say."

"Second sister, you really don't give me face. I really know my mistake. Can you please come sit in the hall?"

Yun Yuxi understood that Yun Jinxi's sudden show of goodwill might be because she wanted to ask a favor of her, so she also wanted to see what Yun Jinxi was up to.

Yun Yuxi raised her eyebrows and said: "Okay, since you are so enthusiastic, I will reluctantly sit with you."

Yun Jinxi cursed in her heart, "You are such a bitch. If I didn't need a favor from you, do you think I would care about you? I will deal with you after I marry into the Second Prince's mansion."

"Please come in, sister," Yun Jinxi said flatteringly, and told the maid to get some tea and snacks.

"Yuelan, stay here and keep an eye on the surroundings."

"My second sister is really smart"

"Tell me what's the matter?"

"Please ask my second sister to feel my pulse and I will understand."

Yun Yuxi didn't waste any words and directly asked Yun Jinxi to stretch out her hand.

Yun Yuxi lowered her voice and said in shock, "You are pregnant? The second prince's?"

"Second sister, you are really smart. I got the news. Yun Ruyan, that bitch, is coming back today. If she can help me marry into the Second Prince's mansion, I will be very grateful."

"Why do you think I will help you? Aren't you too conceited? Unless you can come up with one hundred thousand taels of silver!" Yun Yuxi crossed her arms, looked at the other party coldly, her tone full of disdain and ridicule.

"Can't it be reduced a little more? Second sister, these one hundred thousand taels are really difficult for me to afford." Yun Jinxi looked embarrassed and pleaded with a slightly trembling voice.

However, Yun Yuxi was not moved at all. She frowned and replied unhappily: "Not a single cent less! If you agree to this condition, I will help you; otherwise, please leave here on your own."

Hearing this, Yun Jinxi gritted her teeth, seemed to have made up her mind, and said: "Okay, okay, after the matter is done, I will definitely give you the money, and you will not lose a penny, you can rest assured."

Seeing this, Yun Yuxi raised the corners of his mouth slightly, revealing a sly smile, and warned in a threatening tone:

"Don't try to cheat and deny your promise! You know, with my ability and the support of the prince, it would be easy for me to deal with you. So, I advise you to keep your promise."

Facing Yun Yuxi's threat, Yun Jinxi was dissatisfied, but did not dare to show it easily. She could only suppress her anger and said:

"Humph! Although I am not a very kind person, I am not stupid enough to provoke the Regent's Palace. I still have some sense of propriety."

After saying that, Yun Jinxi stood up and leaned close to Yun Yuxi's ear and whispered softly.

After hearing Yun Jinxi's plan, Yun Yuxi was really stunned. She never expected that Yun Jinxi actually planned to force Yun Ruyan to agree to let her enter the house today.

Yun Yuxi couldn't help but sigh inwardly, thinking that this was going to be something exciting to watch.

Then, a barely perceptible smile emerged on her face. She gave Yun Jinxi a reassuring look and then went to the front hall with Yue Lan.

Yun Yuxi returned to the hall and saw Yun Ruyan, with her hair full of pearls and jade, talking to Liu in a cute and lovely manner.

"Greetings to Princess Huguo," Yun Ruyan saluted with a grim expression. Now that she has married into the royal family, she must always observe etiquette.

Yun Yuxi said with a wry smile, "Sister, please get up. Look at your rosy face. My nephew must be very fond of you. Your hair is full of pearls and jade. You look very generous and beautiful."

Yun Ruyan thought of something and blushed.

"Sister, do you want to go with me to meet Grandma?"

"Sister, go ahead. I just visited my grandmother two days ago," Yun Yuxi refused.

"Okay then, sister, let's talk. I'll visit grandma another day," Yun Ruyan said with an unhappy look on her face.

Because when the Second Prince came, he specifically told her to find a way to win over the Regent Princess, so Yun Ruyan had to endure it no matter how unhappy she was.

She has always believed that with her noble status as the second prince's consort, she will be able to suppress Yun Yuxi.

However, the facts dealt her a heavy blow, and she had to restrain her edge and be cautious in her conduct. After all, Yun Yuxi was not just the Protector of the Country County Lady, but more importantly, she was the aunt of the Second Prince!

Whether in terms of identity or status, Yun Yuxi was clearly superior to her. Thinking of this, Yun Ruyan was filled with resentment and unwillingness, and could only secretly curse Yun Yuxi viciously.

At this time, Yun Yuxi cast his gaze at Yun Ruyan's slightly strange and unnatural expression, and the corners of his mouth couldn't help but rise slightly, revealing an imperceptible smile.

This smile was like a sharp sword, piercing Yun Ruyan's heart, making her, who was already furious, even more angry.

On the other side, the second prince had a fawning look on his face, trying his best to please Yan Wuque in front of him.

Because he knew very well that today's meeting was specially arranged by his father-in-law, the shrewd prime minister, with the purpose of creating a good opportunity for him to be alone with Yan Wuque and win him over.

The Second Prince was naturally delighted with this rare "kindness" and was filled with endless gratitude to the Prime Minister, his father-in-law.

In this way, the three of them sat together, chatting and laughing, and the atmosphere was quite harmonious.

However, deep in Yan Wuque's eyes that seemed as calm as water, there was actually a hint of teasing that was not easily noticed.

Even a shrewd and experienced figure like the Prime Minister could not see through Yan Wuque's true thoughts.
