The Eldest Daughter Reborn: She Provoked the Obsessive Crown Prince and Couldn't Escape

"Oh! My Lord..." Cuiyun exclaimed sweetly, snuggling straight into Fu Yuan's arms.

"Don't be afraid, it's alright..." Fu Yuan comforted the beauty in his arms.

He pulled up his clothes to cover Cuiyun's body, a stark contrast to his previous attitude towards Zhengzheng!

"You little slut, I was wondering why I hadn't seen you these past few days; "

"So you were hiding next door stealing my man!" Zhengzheng rushed towards Cuiyun, taking three steps at a time, and was about to grab her hair;

But Fu Yuan grabbed her wrist and slapped her several times.

"'Your man'? I had no idea. When did I, the dignified Marquis of Yongning, become your man?" Fu Yuan narrowed his long, thin eyes.

"My brother said he would marry me and make me the wife of the Marquis of Yongning, and that we would live here together for a long, long time!" Zhengzheng covered her face, clearly indignant.

Cuiyun sneered, "Lady of Yongning Marquis? Hahaha! Miss Yan, you're really delusional!"

"Since you moved here, has the Marquis ever shown you any favor?"

"Whether I'm favored or not is none of your business! Hmph, it's better than you, a lowly servant, having an affair in the woodshed!" Zhengzheng calmed down and realized that this was actually the woodshed.

Fu Yuan actually placed her next to the woodshed?

"I am a lowly servant. And what are you?"

"You're nothing but a whore who can be played with for a few coins!" Cuiyun finished dressing and slapped Zhengzheng again.

"You, you little slut, how dare you hit me?" Zhengzheng's eyes widened.

Where did Cuiyun, who was willing to travel with her through all the hardships, go?

She suddenly remembered that she was the only one selling herself along the way;

Cuiyun was dressed in a disheveled and dirty manner, with mud smeared on her face, and the men had no interest in her at all.

At this moment, Cuiyun was not only radiant, but her long black hair was also as beautiful as the Milky Way in the sky, more beautiful than the hair of many rich young ladies!

It must be admitted that if both of them dressed up a little, Zhengzheng, who was pampered in the Marquis's mansion since childhood, would naturally be better.

But without rouge and powder, Zhengzheng is far less attractive than Cuiyun!

How come she never noticed before that she had a vixen by her side? What surprised her even more was yet to come!

"I am the concubine that the Marquis took openly and legitimately;

"What are you? What is your status? Why can't I hit you?" Cuiyun said condescendingly.

Zhengzheng was all too familiar with this attitude—her birth mother, Aunt Yan, always treated the servants this way!

“I…I…” Zhengzheng raised her head and looked helplessly at Fu Yuan.

As the two women clashed, Fu Yuan simply watched with amusement, showing no intention of intervening.

“Speak! What are you?” Cuiyun pressed aggressively.

“I…I am…” Zhengzheng bit her lip tightly.

Yes, what is she? The Lady of Yongning Marquis?

Without the formalities of marriage, the wedding ceremony, or the bestowal of titles, what kind of "madam" was she?

She wasn't even a concubine... How could she possibly compete with Cuiyun?

But... is Cuiyun really Fuyuan's concubine?

"Brother, this vile maid is lying!"

"You didn't take her as a concubine, did you?" She ran over, shook Fu Yuan's arm, and asked, crying.

“Zhengzheng, you should address her respectfully as ‘Aunt Yun’.” Fu Yuan looked into Cuiyun’s eyes with a smile.

He gently pushed Zhengzheng's hand away; this single action was enough to show their estrangement.

She has clung to this arm and acted spoiled countless times since she was a child;

Fu Yuan always let her waste her time with a smile, and would fulfill her every wish, no matter how willful it was.

Now he pushes her away and gives that smile to another woman...

This woman was once her lowly maidservant!

"What concubine... I don't believe it! How come I haven't heard a word about the new concubine being taken into the manor?"

"Where's the banquet? Where's the document for taking a concubine? There's nothing there!"

"Can this even be considered a concubine?" Zhengzheng smiled smugly, secretly pleased that she had caught the flaw in the statement.

Cuiyun touched the bracelet on her wrist and said lazily, "It seems that Second Miss is quite familiar with the matter of 'taking a concubine'!"

"That's right, your mother was pregnant with your bastard child when she became a concubine in the Marquis of Chang'an's mansion."

"When the princess was in the lady's womb, she listened to the Four Books and Five Classics;

"You... I bet when you were in Aunt Yan's belly, all you heard was how people were fighting over men!"

"You! You vile woman, you're not allowed to talk about my mother like that!" Zhengzheng rushed forward, grabbed her wrist, and then realized that the bracelet looked very familiar.

This is a gold bracelet adorned with jewels and jade; the inlaid beads and jade are so numerous that the gold parts are almost invisible.

Only Aunt Yan would like such a tacky combination.

"This is my mother's bracelet! How did it end up in the hands of a shameless woman like you!" Zhengzheng tried to tear the bracelet off without saying a word;

Xiao Liu stepped forward, pulled her away, and pushed her to the ground.

Fu Yuan said coldly, "Your mother's thing?"

"The Yan family made my father and the Marquis of Chang'an raise you, this bastard, for over ten years. It's already good enough that they haven't settled accounts with the Yan family or made you pay back the money!"

"You still have the nerve to argue over jewelry? Let me tell you, it's not just this bracelet;

"The things that Father and Madam previously bestowed upon Yan Shi and you shall all belong to the Marquis of Chang'an's mansion!"

"The portion that Yan Shi transferred to the Yan family before her death will be settled by someone else!"

The person who "reckoned" was naturally Fu Luan.

She reported the theft to the authorities, with physical evidence including jewelry and even antiques bearing the marks of the Marquis of Chang'an's mansion or the Fu family, and witness testimony from Aunt Yan.

Originally, theft was not a serious crime, but it was because Aunt Yan stole things from the Fu family and the Chang'an Marquis's mansion!

Many of these were gifts bestowed by the emperor himself, which made the crime even more serious!

Fu Luan not only recovered all the property that Aunt Yan had transferred to the Yan family before her death, but also imprisoned this heartless family!

"You...you mean, my aunt and the others...took my mother's money and jewelry, and..." Zhengzheng murmured.

"Miss Yan, can't you see it even now?"

"Your extended family sold your mother to the Marquis's mansion more than ten years ago, and they lived a life of luxury and arrogance with the money they received from selling her."

"Now you have been kicked out of your home and are in dire straits, losing your status as the 'daughter of a marquis';

"They wouldn't give you a single penny, they'd even sell you to pay for your dowry! That's true..."

“Your own father has already made you sell yourself, do you expect your relatives to treat you like a human being?” Cuiyun sneered.

"I sold myself? What's wrong with that?"

"When some people can't afford to eat, they're capable of doing things that are even more despicable, filthy, and disgusting than what I've done!"

"Haven't you ever sold them before?" Zhengzheng looked at Cuiyun smugly.

She was the only one who sold herself along the way, but Fu Yuan didn't know that!

She can't have it easy either, and we can't let that traitor Cuiyun have it easy either!

Even she, the "younger sister" whom Fu Yuan had doted on since childhood, was considered dirty, let alone Cuiyun.

But she was wrong!

“No matter what Cuiyun has done in the past, I don’t mind…” Fu Yuan touched Cuiyun’s face tenderly, then looked coldly at Zhengzheng.

"You, you... you two scoundrels!" Zhengzheng knew perfectly well that her anger wouldn't change anything;

She was even prepared to be beaten again, but she still pounced on him!
