The bad husband wanted to bring his second wife into the house, so I turned around and became his st

The two were affectionate in the garden, unaware that a storm was brewing.

……

"Auntie, why are you doing this?"

In the Prince's Mansion, Xiao Cui looked at Su Qiaoer, her face full of confusion and worry.

"Auntie, you are taking too much risk by doing this. If the princess finds out, we will all be dead."

"What do you know?"

Su Qiaoer looked at her, a hint of displeasure flashing across her face.

"This Lin Wanqing, relying on the prince's favor, doesn't take me seriously at all. If I don't take action now, where will my position be in the future?"

"But..." Xiao Cui wanted to say something, but was interrupted by Su Qiaoer.

"Okay, stop talking," Su Qiaoer looked at her, "I've already made up my mind about this matter. You just need to do as I say."

"Yes." Xiao Cui lowered her head and dared not speak anymore.

Although she did not agree with Su Qiaoer's approach, she did not dare to disobey her.

After all, Su Qiaoer was her master and she was just a maid.

"Xiao Cui," Su Qiao'er looked at her, "Don't worry. As long as this is accomplished, I will be the mistress of the palace, and you will definitely benefit from it."

"Thank you, Auntie." Xiao Cui hurriedly thanked her.

Although she knew that this was a very risky matter, she had no choice but to take the risk for the sake of future wealth and glory.

"Auntie, I still think this is inappropriate," Xiao Cui looked at her, "No matter what, the princess is still the prince's legitimate wife. If the prince knew you did this..."

"What are you afraid of?" Su Qiao'er looked at her. "As long as we do this cleanly and neatly, no one will know."

"But..." Xiao Cui wanted to say something.

"Okay," Su Qiaoer interrupted her, "Don't say anything more. I've made up my mind."

Xiao Cui looked at Su Qiaoer with confusion on her face.

"Do you know that doing this will kill the princess?"

"So what?" Su Qiaoer looked at her, "I just don't like her and want her to die."

"But..." Xiao Cui wanted to say something.

"Alright!" Su Qiao'er interrupted her harshly, "Don't say any more!"

"Aunt..."

Su Qiaoer glanced at Xiao Cui sharply.

"In this palace, I am the true ruler. As long as you obey me, I will not treat you unfairly."

Xiao Cui lowered her head. Although she did not agree with Su Qiaoer's approach in her heart, she did not dare to disobey in the slightest.

Su Qiaoer was carefully planning how to deal with Lin Wanqing in the Prince's Mansion.

At this time, Princess Huiyang came to the palace with a group of people.

"The princess's visit is truly a great honor to my humble home."

Su Qiaoer greeted him with a forced smile, but she was secretly alert in her heart.

She knew that Princess Huiyang was on good terms with the old lady, and that she must have come this time to curry favor with the old lady.

Su Qiaoer led Princess Huiyang to the old lady's yard and stood at the door with a smug smile on her face, as if she had already seen herself being favored by the old lady.

"Madam, look who's here?" Su Qiaoer shouted.

When the old lady looked up and saw Princess Huiyang, her face immediately broke into a smile.

"Oh, the princess is here, come in and sit down."

Princess Huiyang walked in with a proper smile on her face.

"Madam, I just returned to Beijing recently and came here specially to visit you."

"Okay, okay," the old lady took Princess Huiyang's hand.

"Why didn't you tell me in advance that you were coming back? I could have prepared something you like for you."

Princess Huiyang smiled and shook her head.

"Don't bother me, old lady. I just came to see you and chat with you."

As she spoke, she glanced at Su Qiaoer who was standing beside her, and a smug look flashed across her face.

Su Qiaoer's heart tightened, but she didn't dare to act rashly in front of the old lady.

"Old lady, I brought you some small gifts when I came back this time."

Princess Huiyang said this, signaling the maid behind her to present the gift.

"Oh, you are so thoughtful, kid."

The old lady looked at the gift in front of her and couldn't stop smiling.

"You don't need to bring anything next time. As long as you can come, I'll be happy."

"Yes."

Princess Huiyang nodded obediently, but was secretly proud in her heart.

This time she successfully gained the old lady's favor, and Su Qiaoer became her foil.

While a few people were chatting, Su Qiaoer suddenly covered her stomach and her face turned as pale as paper.

"Aunt, what's wrong with you?"

Princess Huiyang quickly supported her, her face full of worry.

"My...stomach hurts..."

Su Qiaoer was in so much pain that she could hardly speak.

"Don't be afraid, I'll take you to see a doctor right away."

Princess Huiyang made a prompt decision and supported Su Qiaoer as she was about to walk out.

"and many more!"

The old lady suddenly said, "Where are you going?"

"Madam, my aunt is suddenly feeling unwell. I want to take her to see a doctor."

Princess Huiyang explained, a hint of urgency in her tone.

"Don't bother,"

The old lady waved her hand and said, "There is a doctor in the mansion. Just ask someone to call him."

Princess Huiyang nodded and immediately ordered the maid beside her to call a doctor.

She stayed where she was, gently stroking Su Qiaoer's back, trying to relieve her pain.

After a while, the doctor hurried over.

He carefully took Su Qiaoer's pulse, with a serious look on his face.

"Doctor, how is my aunt?" Princess Huiyang asked anxiously.

"My Lady, Aunt Su is suffering from malnutrition due to long-term irregular diet."

The doctor pondered for a moment and said, "As long as you take good care of yourself and eat on time, you should be able to recover."

“Malnutrition?

"The old lady frowned, "Will our palace treat her harshly?"

"Please calm down, old lady," the doctor explained quickly, "I didn't mean that. It's just that Aunt Su has been eating irregularly for a long time, which has led to malnutrition."

"Then why does she have an irregular diet?" the old lady continued to ask.

Su Qiaoer lowered her head, a trace of guilt flashing across her face.

She knew she couldn't hide the fact that she was dieting frequently to stay in shape.

So she could only bite the bullet and say, "Madam, I just want to maintain my figure, so I often go on a diet..."

Before she could finish her words, she was interrupted by the old lady: "You child, you are really ridiculous! The body is the capital of revolution. How can you hurt your body just to maintain your figure?"

Su Qiao'er was left speechless by the old lady's words and could only lower her head and accept the criticism silently.

Princess Huiyang watched this scene from the side with a meaningful smile on her face.

She knew that Su Qiaoer would no longer be able to hide the truth this time, and it would depend on how the old lady would deal with her.

The doctor prescribed some medicine for Su Qiaoer and then left.

The old lady asked Su Qiaoer to go back and rest first, and instructed the servants to take good care of her.
