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

How could Nalisi not understand? She knelt down with a thud and said, "Please rest assured, Your Highness."

"Even if I become a concubine or a mistress in the future, I will still obey the county magistrate's arrangements in everything."

"I would never act like that Yun family member, who acted like a master in front of the county magistrate;"

"If I break my oath, I will surely suffer the consequences..."

Fu Luan stopped him, saying, "I was just giving you a word of advice. Why should Li Siyao make a vow or oath?"

"But my business is not yet settled. Once your sister hands over 'Flying Horse of Gansu' to me, we can discuss future plans!"

Lisiyao hurriedly kowtowed.

She was originally a quick and efficient person, and this "Horse Trampling a Flying Swallow" was related to her future in the palace;

So even though she was in the "Pharmacy Department," which had absolutely nothing to do with making bronzeware, she put all her effort into using her connections and experience in the palace over the past ten years.

Together with her sister, who was in charge of jewelry, she mobilized all available people and resources in the Sixth Palace.

Within seven days, a new "Horse Treading on a Flying Swallow" was actually made, and it was even more exquisite than the previous one!

When Fu Luan received it, he was quite pleased with it, and couldn't help but think to himself, "It is indeed a good thing."

"It truly deserves the title of 'national treasure'! No wonder that good-for-nothing was so eager to claim it for himself..."

only……

"Now that I have this, should I sign the register, or..." Fu Luan asked deliberately.

Li Siyao laughed and said, "That's alright, the Six Departments and Twenty-Four Offices have their own ways of dealing with it."

"This thing was originally made to make up for the mistake we made last time..."

"If we're talking about 'signing,' it should have been done when the Prince of Youbeiping robbed things;"

"If you sign this time, it will only raise suspicion. Perhaps the County Magistrate... wasn't sent by the Prince of Youbeiping?"

It turned out that as the Xianbei envoys approached Chang'an day by day, Yuan Lu had recently sent people to discuss with her sister Li Sizhen the matter of misappropriating other treasures.

The Li sisters did not implicate Fu Luan; they kept stalling for time, saying they were just trying to find a way to make amends.

Yuan Lu listened but didn't delve into it; it seemed as if the matter was unimportant...

After hearing the whole story, Fu Luan praised, "Not bad, you're very clever. What a pity..."

"Today is your last day working in the Pharmacy Department!"

Li Siyao immediately knelt down, "What have I done wrong? Please enlighten me, Your Highness!"

Fu Ling personally helped her up and said with a smile, "Don't worry, didn't you want to be an empress?"

"But climbing the social ladder takes time; in the meantime, the county magistrate has found you a good place!"

As a result, the Department of Pharmacy lost a "Pharmacist Li", while Yuan Rui's Yaohua Palace gained a palace maid named "Li Qingluan".

The title of "palace maid" was merely a smokescreen, a way to temporarily teach her how to be another "Fu Luan" in Yaohua Palace.

While the matter of Yuan Rui being punished by copying Buddhist scriptures was still ongoing;

During this period, Fu Luan used the pretext of delivering handwritten Buddhist scriptures to Yuan Rui to teach Qing Luan at Yao Hua Palace every day.

It's simply about telling her what you like to eat and drink;

How to dress, how to style one's appearance, what kind of incense one likes to use, what little habits one has...

"You and I have no resemblance whatsoever; you can only win by resembling each other in spirit."

“You can imitate me in subtle but undeniable ways, like ‘fragrance’…”

She also specifically instructed Yuanrui to take Qingluan with her wherever she went and to seize every opportunity to see the Emperor.

If you do see her, remember to address Qingluan as "A-Luan" in front of the Emperor.

Within a few days, Qingluan had already begun to resemble Fuluan in three ways.

"Don't paint the portrait of the emperor for now, lest it remind the emperor of that ugly imitator, Yun Cai Nu!" Fu Luan specifically instructed.

Qingluan laughed, "Of course. Yun Cainu only learned a little about flower ornaments and yet gained such favor; the county magistrate's methods are evident."

Fu Luan did not give a yes or no answer.

She recalled the Emperor's words at the Prince of Longxi's residence: "You are so amazing! Your cunning and methods surpass those of all the concubines in my harem combined!"

But Yun Guiji was not someone she helped to rise to power...

"Oh, right, Yuanjia..."

Although he had obtained the "Flying Horse of Gansu," his plan was half successful;

But she had other things to confirm with Yuan Jia. And now he hadn't returned...

Fu Luan sighed, "Let's change course to the Right Beiping Prince's Mansion!"

When Fu Luan arrived at Yuan Lu's bedside, he was dreaming of "sisters sharing one husband"!

In his dream, he had Fu Luan on his left and Fu Zhengzheng on his right.

The two of them couldn't wait to undress and wait for him to "favor" them, with Xiao Jiu, whom he had framed for "rape," tied up beside them.

"Tsk tsk, if I could be with A-Luan in front of Xiao Jiu... hehe..." Yuan Lu thought of lewd things;

He opened his eyes, then closed them again, turned over, and tried to go back to sleep.

He suddenly realized something was wrong—who was standing by the bed when he opened his eyes just now?

"Wife!" Yuan Lu suddenly sat up, then remembered that he hadn't been wearing anything while taking a nap, so he quickly pulled the blanket up to cover himself.

If it were only Fu Luan, he would naturally find a way to make love to her;

But her maids and physicians seemed to haunt her relentlessly;

After the divorce, whenever he met Fu Luan except at the horse farm, she was always followed by Hua Luo and Fu Ling, making it impossible for him to make a move!

Fu Luan said with a half-smile, "If I had known Your Highness would be so distant, I shouldn't have come here!"

"Enough... Your Highness has such leisure time and refined tastes."

"I'm afraid they've already found something better to replace the 'state gift' used to forge an alliance with the Xianbei. I won't disturb you any longer. Farewell!"

Fu Luan was about to leave when Yuan Lu heard words like "Xianbei," "alliance," and "state gift," and disregarded his embarrassment.

He grabbed the thin blanket he was wearing, wrapped it around himself, and sat on the bed, hurriedly pulling at his beloved "wife".

"My wife, my darling... you know I've been restless and sleepless day and night because of the alliance with the Xianbei..."

Fu Luan sneered, "I think the prince is sleeping quite soundly. Even when he's half asleep, he doesn't forget to lick his lips and smack his tongue."

"I wonder what wonderful things he dreamed about! He's probably already forgotten all about the Xianbei, hasn't he?"

Yuan Lu said with difficulty, "I've been treating my leg lately... how could I have time to look for that damn state gift?"

Fu Luan glanced at the legs that weren't covered by the thin blanket and saw that they were indeed still wrapped in suede, proving that Yuan Lu's words were true.

"With the Bone-Corroding Powder, your leg won't heal so easily, you good-for-nothing!" Fu Luan sneered inwardly.

Even though her past deep affection stemmed from her "blindness," she had indeed been husband and wife with Yuan Lu, and she understood him.

Even if his leg hadn't been broken, he certainly wouldn't have cared about the matter of the state gift; so what if he damaged the "Flying Horse of Gansu"?

He might send his servants running around trying to find a solution for him, but if he truly couldn't find one, he wouldn't be in the slightest urgency.

He relied on the fact that he was the emperor's son and was now a cripple;

He figured that no matter what mistake he made, the emperor wouldn't bear to blame him! He wouldn't care about "diplomatic relations between the two countries".

After all, in his previous life, Yuan Lu was a dog emperor who handed over the great land of the Great Wei to foreign countries after ascending the throne!
