Demoted from wife to concubine? Reborn, the mistress of a noble family plots another high-status mar

Chapter 263

"Is the second young mistress pregnant?" someone joked, noticing the pregnancy.

Xu Lan glanced shyly at Liu Muyuan, then leaned against Pei Heng, saying, "It's still early in the pregnancy."

Liu Muyuan's expression changed slightly, but he quickly recovered and congratulated Pei Heng.

The princess hurriedly ordered people to take good care of her, and to remove anything the pregnant woman shouldn't touch.

Seeing this scene, Yun Xiyue felt sorry for Pei Heng; Liu Muyuan and Xu Lan were truly a pair of scoundrels.

Neither Pei Heng nor the Princess knew that they had been having an affair in private. This was a plan to make Pei Heng cuckolded and raise an illegitimate child for the Liu family.

This is outrageous! How is this any different from Shen Yue and Lin Bao'er? Yun Xiyue grew increasingly angry and wanted to step forward and expose this despicable couple.

Bei Ye hurriedly grabbed her: "Miss, in this kind of situation, even if we expose them, I'm afraid Pei Heng and the princess won't believe us."

Yun Xiyue calmed down and said, "Okay, let's take our seats first."

Yes!

Liu Muyuan and Xu Lan had hidden themselves very well and were still gloating.

"Why are you staring at Prince Consort Liu?" As soon as he sat down, he realized that Qi Yuyan and Pei Shang were next to him.

The two were truly inseparable.

Yun Xiyue picked up her wine cup and took a sip. "I think Prince Consort Liu is very happy. The princess really treats him well."

"Are you envious?" Qi Yumin, on the right, deliberately spoke loudly.

Yun Xiyue felt only bad luck when she encountered the Qi siblings.

"What's wrong?" the eldest princess asked.

Qi Yumin said, "Your Highness, Miss Yun said she envies the Prince Consort."

"Envious of me?" Liu Muyuan looked surprised.

Yun Xiyue said, "The princess is truly devoted to the prince consort, and their love is stronger than gold. The princess will fulfill any wish the prince consort may have."

"Who wouldn't envy a prince consort?"

Liu Muyuan narrowed his eyes slightly, "So you mean I'm not sincere towards the princess?"

The atmosphere immediately became tense.

The eldest princess immediately said with displeasure, "Alright, everyone is seated, let's begin the meal!"

Everyone was sweating bullets for Yun Xiyue.

Qi Yuyan warned her younger sister not to speak anymore, and Qi Yumin finally shut up.

"Don't you know? Prince Consort Liu never wanted to marry the princess in the first place."

"You're trying to embarrass the princess by saying that. Are you out of your mind?!" Qi Yuyan said in a low voice.

Yun Xiyue glanced at the eldest princess, "Thank you for the reminder, Young Master Qi."

A maid came to pour wine, and the two of them did not speak again.

The maid's hands trembled, and Yun Xiyue's clothes got wet.

"It's alright, I have clothes in my carriage. It's getting late, I'll tell the princess that I'll take my leave now."

There was no accident; someone was plotting against her.

Such a low-level trick, I don't know who's so stupid.

"Miss Yun, the princess wishes you to change your clothes before returning." The maid, however, wouldn't let her leave.

Could this be the eldest princess's idea?

Yunxi Yue found it strange, so she asked Bei Ye to get the clothes.

After Bei Ye left, the maid invited her to the side room.

"Is it the princess who is looking for me, or the prince consort?"

The maid paused, saying, "Does it matter? You've offended the prince consort; the princess will never forgive you."

"Even if the prince consort wants your life, the princess will not blame him and will even help cover it up."

As expected, Liu Muyuan wanted to kill him to silence him.

As the maid spoke, she pulled out a dagger, intending to kill her in the back garden.

They are incredibly audacious.

Yun Xiyue did not dodge, waiting for him to walk right into her trap.

Unexpectedly, at that moment, a sword pierced straight through the maid's chest.

The maid died with her eyes wide open, collapsing to the ground and dying instantly.

It's the Dragon Shadow Guard.

"Why did Liu Muyuan want to kill you?" Murong Yu walked out from behind the artificial hill and hugged her from behind.

He was not traveling incognito in his purple dragon robe.

Yun Xiyue quietly put away the medicinal powder from her sleeve.

"Royal brother." At this moment, the eldest princess appeared in a flustered manner with her entourage.
