Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

"Sister, I've heard that your husband and the Prince of Xiang have a long-standing friendship. Could you please help us mediate?"

Liu Feiyan's eyes were full of anxiety; this was another reason she came here today.

"Your brother-in-law and the Prince of Xiang only interacted in court; they didn't have much contact in private."

Besides, he's not here now, and I have no connection with the Prince and Princess of Xiang, so what help could I possibly offer?"

Liu Ruyan looked helpless, indicating that she could not help.

"Sister, you can't just sit idly by. You watched Hanfei grow up. If the Prince of Xiang's mansion blames us, how can we bear it?"

Liu Feiyan looked anxious. The Xiang Prince's Mansion held a very high position, and the young prince was the only son of the Xiang Prince and his wife.

Everyone in the capital knew that Prince Xiang and Princess Xiang had a very good relationship. Back then, Prince Xiang refused the late emperor's bestowed marriage in order to be with Princess Xiang, which angered the late emperor.

However, the King of Xiang was determined to marry his Queen Consort, and even swore in front of the whole world that he would only marry her in this lifetime.

In the end, the late emperor agreed to the marriage.

After the Queen Consort of Xiang gave birth to a son, it should have been a joyous occasion. However, the person who was originally betrothed to the King of Xiang stole the child and sold him to a slave trader. They also brought in another child from elsewhere to confuse the situation.

The King and Queen quickly realized something was wrong, but the child could not be found.

Since then, the couple has had disagreements and has not had any more children.

Although their relationship was restored later, the disappearance of the young prince remained a thorn in their hearts.

Now that the young prince has finally returned, the entire Xiang Prince's Mansion is treating him like a precious treasure. However, Sun Hanfei beat him up, which shows how angry the Xiang Prince's Mansion is.

Upon hearing this, Song Ruozhen knew that Liu Feiyan wanted to push her mother out to bear the wrath of the Prince of Xiang.

How can I tolerate my precious son, whom I finally found, being bullied?

“Aunt, you said that Mother has been very worried about us lately. My eldest brother just got divorced, and my second brother and I broke off our engagement. Everything at home is very difficult.”

My mother has fainted several times in a row, and the doctor said she can't be stressed or upset anymore.

Besides, my mother has no connection with the Prince of Xiang's household at all. My uncle, on the other hand, is still in court and has the opportunity to interact with the Prince. Please have some sympathy for my mother!

Song Ruozhen looked distressed and, in the name of filial piety, retorted to everything Liu Feiyan wanted to say.

Liu Feiyan opened her mouth, her face extremely ugly. She had originally been determined to get Liu Ruyan's help today no matter what, but Song Ruozhen's words left her speechless.

"Fifth sister, your aunt always dotes on Mother and will certainly not make things difficult for her, so don't worry," Song Yi'an said.

Seeing that her mother kept giving her meaningful glances, Sun Yan'er said, "Cousin, cousin, you should both try not to trouble Auntie too much!"

"Now the Song family is facing one problem after another. Not only can you not help Auntie with her worries, but you're also making her look worried..."

“My cousin is right!” Song Zhiyu nodded. “You should talk to your brother when you get back. He caused trouble while drunk, and he should deal with the trouble he created himself!”

Sun Yan'er's eyes widened. How did the conversation turn to this?

"Miss, the madam's medicine is ready," Chenxiang said.

Song Ruozhen responded and then said to her aunt, "Aunt, please eat quickly. I'll help Mother take her medicine first."

Before Liu Feiyan and Sun Yan'er could even speak, they saw Song Ruozhen and the other woman leave, and they left in anger without even eating a bite of their meal.

Before Song Ruozhen and Liu Ruyan even reached the house, they heard that the person had already left, so they went back to have lunch.

"Mother, the Prince of Xiang and his wife dote on their young heir. I've heard that recently, people have been flocking to the Prince of Xiang's residence to visit him."

My cousin injured the young prince at this critical juncture; the King of Xiang will not let it go easily. You were right not to get involved.

Song Yi'an looked serious. His aunt wasn't exactly a good relative, but unfortunately, she was his mother's younger sister, so they couldn't sever ties.

"Don't worry, Mother isn't confused."

Seeing how worried the children were about her, Liu Ruyan felt a warmth in her heart. "After everything that has happened, Mother has come to understand. The Fan family is a case in point."

No matter how good you are to them, it's no use. You must also think that Mother was too indulgent towards Aunt in the past.

Even though he knew she was there to freeload, he didn't stop her too much.

"I originally thought that since I grew up with your aunt and I was the older sister, even though I knew she hadn't been very well-behaved in recent years, I chose to be tolerant."

But after what happened with that con artist, I understood.

Liu Ruyan's eyes were deep and unfathomable; in truth, the person she hated most during this period was herself.

She believed Liu Feiyan's words and buried such filthy things in her home, which led to a series of misfortunes for her family members.

Her husband lost contact on the battlefield, and everyone still says he is dead. She feels that all of this is related to her.

In the past, it was one thing, but now the children only have her to rely on, so she has to hold on and not let any of the children in the family suffer!

Song Ruozhen and the others exchanged glances, feeling sorry for their mother.

To be honest, my maternal grandparents' family wasn't very good to my mother, and my aunt was always causing trouble.

They weren't unaware of their mother's difficulties, because their mother had refused before, but as soon as she refused, their aunt would run to their grandmother to complain.

At that time, my maternal grandmother and aunt would come together to lecture me, implying that I should take good care of my younger sister, forcing my mother to agree.

Therefore, although they disliked it over the years, they let it go, not wanting to make things difficult for their mother.

“Mother, I’m just worried that if my aunt goes back and tells my grandmother about it, my grandmother might make the trip herself.”

Song Ruozhen frowned slightly. Her grandmother still hadn't come to see her after what happened last time, which was already surprising enough.

If my aunt goes back and makes a scene, my maternal grandmother will definitely come too.

Song Yi'an and the others looked at each other, feeling troubled when they thought of the Liu family.

"Don't worry, Mother can handle it."

Liu Ruyan smiled and said, "I am your mother, after all. Do you think I have no skills?"

I just didn't want my mother and the others to scold me before. Now that I think about it, things have already come to this point. If they still want to keep blaming me, then so be it.

"Mother, what are you planning to do..." Song Zhiyu asked in surprise.

The mother's voice carried a self-deprecating tone, "Could it be that they can completely disown me as their daughter?"

The Song family, though weakened, is still a force to be reckoned with; they won't give up.

"Yi'an, just focus on preparing for the exam. As long as you get good results, it will all be worth it."

"Mother is right, Second Brother, you must pass the exam. We're counting on you to make us proud!" Song Zhiyu said excitedly.

Just then, a voice came from outside the door to announce their arrival.

"Madam, Young Master Luo has arrived."

The expressions on everyone's faces changed slightly. The Luo family?
