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

"Hmph, you know to cherish and protect your own reputation; but what did you do to other women in your past life?"

"I will make you repay a hundredfold for the good deeds you did in your past life!" Fu Luan cursed inwardly.

In her previous life, Fu Zhengzheng not only used the Hehuan Powder to falsely accuse Fu Luan and her elder brother Fu Yuan of having an affair;

He also tricked Fu Ling into becoming a military prostitute in the army camp, causing her to be humiliated and commit suicide.

Furthermore, he sold several of his sisters-in-law and young women from the noble Fu family to the mountains for two qian of silver each, to serve as "public wives" for families with "abundant male offspring"...

The high-ranking mistresses and noble ladies of the Fu family were reduced to slaves and servants, and treated like prostitutes overnight;

In front of everyone—especially men—she, Fu Zhengzheng, was as "clean" and "holy" as a celestial maiden, ultimately wielding the Phoenix Seal and becoming the empress of the world…

Seeing her sister's furious expression, Fu Zhengzheng assumed it was because she was disappointing and had angered her sister, so she continued to cry:

"Sister, Zhengzheng was wrong! Zhengzheng will never dare to use these filthy things again;"

"I'll definitely find someone—oops!—to throw them far, far away by myself, so that these filthy things won't offend my sister's eyes!"

Upon hearing this, Fu Luan rolled her eyes, then smiled and said, "Zhengzheng, get up! Although your sister is a bit strict, it's all for your own good."

"How could I really be angry with you? After all, I'm your only older sister!"

Fu Luan personally helped Fu Zhengzheng up.

Not only that, she deliberately made Fu Zhengzheng sit on a chair close to the jade dildo, and said, "Although there is an order of seniority;

"But as your older sister, I am about the same age as you. How could I be so old-fashioned as an elder and scold you for such a trivial matter?"

Seeing her sister's "generosity" and "understanding," Fu Zhengzheng felt confused instead.

"Sister, do you really not blame me? Don't you think I'm naturally lewd and have brought shame to the Marquis of Chang'an's mansion in front of the servants?"

Fu Luan thought to herself, "Hmph, it seems you little slut have some self-awareness after all."

"You want me to throw away those erotic pictures and that stuff? How can I do that?"

But she still smiled and said, "Zhengzheng, what you're saying makes your sister sound so terrible..."

"My sister is also a woman, and a married woman, so of course she can understand your feelings!"

"These things are just things that young women use to comfort themselves in private."

"It's all just for pleasure. What's there to blame?"

Fu Ling chimed in, "Yes! Grandma is absolutely right."

"I walk among the ladies of the boudoir, treating the illnesses of noblewomen and young women;"

"Most women have these things in their boudoirs! It's not just our second daughter who has them."

"Unmarried women often feel lonely in their boudoirs, and they find solace in 'entertaining themselves' at night."

"Compared to scandalous affairs like 'the south side of the painted hall' or 'a nighttime rendezvous in the west wing,' what is this matter?"

Fu Zhengzheng sobbed and didn't reply; she just looked at Fu Ling with tearful eyes.

She always felt that Fu Ling's words were implied, as if she was taking the opportunity to expose her affair with her brother-in-law.

She didn't understand "south of the painted hall," but the meaning of "meeting at night in the west wing" was all too clear.

However, she herself was not entirely sure; moreover, others would only see these words as helping her.

If I were to raise questions now, it would be like "protesting too much."

"Thank you, sister, thank you, Miss Fu Ling..." Fu Zhengzheng said, bowing her head.

Fu Luan carefully wrapped the erotic pictures and jade dildo back up exactly as they were and handed them to Fu Zhengzheng, pretending to be completely open and honest:

"Although I was the champion of this horse racing event, the one who truly shone on the track was your former brother-in-law..."

When Yuan Lu was mentioned, Fu Luan couldn't help but ramble on and on about a bunch of nonsense again;

He made no mention of his deliberate revenge against Yuan Lu, which led to Yuan Lu falling from his horse and breaking his leg.

In any case, during the time that Fu Zhengzheng was under house arrest, she knew very little about what was happening outside;

Moreover, she was surrounded by spies planted by Fu Luan, so no one would tell her the truth.

Fu Luan observed Fu Zhengzheng. When she scolded her earlier, Fu Zhengzheng already looked sleepy and couldn't help but yawn.

But when Yuan Lu was mentioned, she paused, her body trembling slightly, as if she were afraid of something.

"Nowadays... he is gaining more and more favor in front of the emperor, who has even entrusted him with the important task of forming an alliance with the Xianbei."

"If this matter is handled well, he will surely be restored to his original name and promoted to prince."

"It's even possible that he might be reinstated as crown prince!" Fu Luan said, nodding to himself, then sighed.

"And what about you? My dear sister! He'll have a house full of wives and concubines by then, while you fought with me for his favor and even harmed me; "

"After much thought, I realized that although we are not born of the same mother, we are still sisters; we have many brothers in our families, and we are the only two daughters."

"If I don't care about you, who will I care about? Why should I fall out with you over a man?"

"I, as the elder sister, have no choice but to swallow my pride and bear the pain, preferring to give up the position of Crown Princess."

"I was going to give Yuanlu to you, but who knew you'd end up with him... Tell me, what happened to you after you schemed against me and plotted against me?"

“I…I…he and I actually…” Fu Zhengzheng pursed her lips, stammering.

Although Fu Zhengzheng was jealous of Fu Luan, Fu Luan's words struck a chord with her.

Yuan Lu gained face in front of the Emperor, but what about her?

She was trapped in this small world, with no one to answer her cries for help.

The most private things a young woman treasures in her boudoir are being made public...

If she were more lucid, she would have realized that Fu Luan's words to her were nothing more than attempts to sow discord and extinguish any possibility of her and Yuan Lu rekindling their old flame.

But the grudges between her and Yuan Lu were no longer as simple as "being beaten and scolded" or "being abandoned".

At that time, Fu Luan had just left, and she and Yuan Lu were still in the East Palace. Yuan Lu only beat and scolded her and made her serve him in bed.

But when they moved into the Right Beiping Prince's Mansion, Yuan Lu's abuse of her intensified—

At first, he stripped her naked in front of the servants and forced her to have sex with him.

"What, you shameless woman, don't you like me?"

"Didn't you want to be a nameless maidservant just to serve me in place of your sister? What are you pretending to be now, this virtuous and chaste woman?"

Later, perhaps he got tired of it, or perhaps he hated her for doing too many unnecessary things that caused him to lose his position as crown prince.

Or perhaps, as he said at the horse racing event yesterday, it was to "avenge" Fu Luan...

In short, Yuan Lu gave his sister-in-law, whom he had once abandoned his wife to please, to a servant and made her a courtesan in the Right Beiping Prince's mansion.

From that day on, Fu Zhengzheng was forced to serve dozens of servants every day, and she couldn't even escape it when she had her period!

"She's just a whore who offered herself up for free. I can do whatever I want with her. Don't feel sorry for me..."

Fu Zhengzheng, living in the Right Beiping Prince's Mansion, was worse off than a prostitute...
