The story of a bullied daughter's rise to power

Having said that, General Situ had made up his mind. He looked at Situ Yaorao and said coldly, "Since that's the case, don't regret it later. I, Situ Yu, have no bias towards my two daughters. Your sister will have to live in the future. For her, I have to make a choice. Yaorao, everything that happened today is your own fault. If anything goes wrong in the future, don't blame me, your ruthless father."

Situ Yaorao sneered inwardly upon hearing this. This was exactly what General Situ was looking forward to the most.

If she gave up the Situ family's help, he could also help the Sixth Prince and let his little daughter get what she wanted. He said this now, simply because he was afraid that she would gossip about him in the future.

However, General Situ was wrong.

What she least wanted was the Situ family's help. She didn't want the Situ family to become a burden to Tan Tai Wu Yue in the future.

Thinking about this, Situ Yaorao made a decision. Looking at General Situ, she said, "Today's matter is entirely my decision. Whatever choice you make in the future will have nothing to do with me. Besides, this is exactly what you want, isn't it?"

Situ Yaorao's words made General Situ's face darken: "What do you mean by that?"

"It's nothing, I just accidentally told the truth. Father, you don't have to hide anything. I am your daughter, and I naturally understand what you are thinking. However, Hong Lei and you have a deep father-daughter relationship. If you really ignore me in the future, I have no complaints."

"You said it yourself," said General Situ.

"Of course, my daughter will never regret it in the future. Please rest assured, father." Situ Yaorao said.

"Okay then. Go back and have a rest. Tomorrow when your sister is sent to the Sixth Prince's Mansion, you can follow her. Although you don't want to support her, you should at least go to give her face. Otherwise, people will think that the relationship between her and you is as hostile as water and fire." General Situ said.

Upon hearing this, Situ Yaorao couldn't help but think to herself that Situ Honglei was indeed very lucky. Although the owner of this body was the legitimate daughter of the Situ family, for General Situ, Situ Honglei was probably the only daughter in his heart. She was merely a product that existed for the Situ family.

Thinking of this, Situ Yaorao felt a little sad.

"My daughter will naturally be here tomorrow. After all... my last name is Situ no matter what." After saying that, Situ Yaorao pushed the door open and left.

People are always like this. They will be biased when facing their loved ones.

Fingers are of different lengths, let alone humans?

However, General Situ will probably never know that there is such a person who spared no effort to ensure the long-term stability of the Situ family.

Or maybe, even if he knew, he wouldn't be grateful. He would just think that all this was as it should be. After all, her last name was Situ.

After Situ Yaorao left the room, she returned to the small courtyard where she lived before she got married. At the same time, after Situ Yaorao left, Situ Honglei went to General Situ's study.

Looking at General Situ, whose face was gloomy and who knew what he was thinking, Situ Honglei gritted her teeth and said, "Dad...did my sister agree?"

"No, your sister is unwilling to support you and let you marry the Sixth Prince in such a grand manner," General Situ said. Situ Honglei felt a tinge of dissatisfaction upon hearing this, but she remained helpless. "Yes, indeed! How could my sister agree to such an impolite request? I'm overthinking it. Dad... don't worry about me. Even if I have nothing, I can still live a good life by marrying the Sixth Prince," Situ Honglei feigned strength.

Upon hearing this, General Situ felt deeply sorry for his little daughter. He said, "How could Father leave you alone? Don't worry. Since your sister is so heartless, I don't need to worry about her. The Situ family will naturally favor the Sixth Prince in the future. Even if you can't become his principal wife, the Sixth Prince will certainly not dare to treat you lightly."

"How can this be possible? My sister is the Crown Princess." Situ Honglei looked nervous. But she was excited. If the Situ family really helped the Sixth Prince, it would mean that her status would definitely rise!

"Hmph! What's wrong with that? She has no feelings towards the Situ family at all. Even if we help her, it will be of no use. It's better to just ignore her." When General Situ mentioned Situ Yaorao, he was obviously furious.

Situ Honglei was so happy in her heart, but her face was full of regret: "I'm afraid that my sister will hate me again in the future."

"What are you afraid of? Those who achieve great things don't care about trivial matters. Let her hate you. Hong Lei, between you and Yao Rao, Dad chose you. You must never put my Situ family in a disadvantageous position in the future. Remember, your last name is Situ."

General Situ looked at Situ Honglei and said seriously.

Although he doted on his daughter, he was, after all, the head of the Situ family. For the sake of the Situ family, he still had to warn her. Upon hearing this, Situ Honglei's face turned serious: "Dad, I know. I will never let you down."

"Yeah." General Situ closed his eyes with a complicated expression.

If he truly cared about the Situ family, the person he should have chosen was Yaorao. The king's favor surpassed all else. The crown prince was drawn to Yaorao, and choosing her would have been better for the Situ family. However... he couldn't bear to see his youngest daughter suffer. As long as the Situ family prospered, he would turn a blind eye, regardless of status.

People are always partial. What's more, he owes Hong Lei, the child, and her mother?

"Honglei, go back and have a good rest. You will be getting married tomorrow. You should talk to your mother and then have a good rest to avoid being tired tomorrow." General Situ said.

Situ Honglei nodded upon hearing this. The thought of marrying the Sixth Prince filled her with joy. She had met the Sixth Prince many times, and speaking with him always brought a feeling of happiness. This man was exactly what she wanted. She had long understood this, and precisely because of this understanding, she felt even happier.

What could be happier than having your family support you in being with your loved one?

In the future, if the Sixth Prince became the Emperor, she would be the Imperial Consort. Not to mention that she might become the Sixth Prince's Consort, even if she didn't, it was enough. Her love for that man was enough to outweigh everything.

It was getting late. Situ Yaorao was lying on the bed, reading a book with great interest.

Madam Situ pushed the door open and walked in. Seeing her daughter's leisurely appearance, she felt a little disappointed. She took her book and said, "You girl, you never know how to be anxious."

"Anxious?" Situ Yaorao blinked, looking confused.

"Hong Lei is going to become the Sixth Prince's concubine. When that happens, your father will definitely be more inclined to help the Sixth Prince. Yaorao, do you know what this means?"

"Mother, these have nothing to do with me. The affairs of the Situ family have nothing to do with me. I marry the prince just for me. This has been decided from the beginning." Situ Yaorao looked at Madam Situ and said softly.

Madam Situ wanted to say something else, but she heard Situ Yaorao say, "Besides, I only have three years to live. Mother, think about it. If I die, what's the point of the Situ family helping the prince? If people are gone and the tea gets cold, it will only make it difficult for the Situ family to move forward. Even if His Highness protects the Situ family for me. But... he is only protecting the Situ family. If father knew my current situation, I am afraid he would not even hesitate and would choose to cry redly. There is no interest relationship between me and the Situ family. If the prince eventually becomes the emperor, perhaps he will protect the Situ family for me. If the Sixth Prince becomes the emperor, then the Situ family will surely prosper. And I... may die with the prince. Mother, no matter how much you think about me, it can't compare to God taking my life. So, don't think about it anymore."

Situ Yaorao sighed softly.

Upon hearing this, Mrs. Situ's eyes turned red: "Sometimes, I think that God is so unfair. My daughter Yaorao is gentle, kind, smart and lovely. Why can't I let you live a little longer? If you can live, I will be willing to die." Mrs. Situ cried.
