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

Chapter 338

Fuyunlou was unsealed, and Yun Xiaohan was also released from house arrest.

This gave Uncle Qian the opportunity to bring people to verify the information.

When Yun Xiaohan questioned Xiao Ling'er, she pretended to be calm, but she only panicked completely when she took out the Soul-Stealing Powder.

"The scent of your rouge still lingers on it."

Xiao Ling'er's face turned deathly pale. "I...I really didn't mean to. That person told me this..."

"what is this?"

"And who is that person?"

Forced into a corner, Xiao Ling'er had no choice but to reveal everything.

“Someone approached me and said they could help me gain my husband’s favor.”

“She gave me this package. She said it was a medicine that could make Xiao Han fall in love with me. I originally wanted to put it in his tea... but I was in a hurry and left it in his study.”

"I really didn't mean to, and I didn't know it was a soul-stealing powder."

Yun Xiyue's expression changed slightly. "Who is that person?"

This guy is trying to kill my brother!

"I don't know. He always wears a mask when he appears, so I haven't been able to see what he looks like."

"I really didn't mean to..." Xiao Ling'er had already regretted it, but she kept pretending to be calm.

I thought Yun Xiaohan was alright.

That was all in the past, but I didn't expect it to still be found out.

Uncle Qian and the others took their leave.

Yun Xiyue looked at her elder brother, "Brother, are you really going to divorce your wife?"

“Otherwise what? It’s one thing for her to harm me like this, but she’s also harming the Yun family. How can we allow her to continue staying in the Yun family?” Yun Xiaohan said.

“But your marriage was arranged by imperial decree. Divorce requires His Majesty’s consent. If this gets out, it will be bad for the Xiao family and my sister-in-law. The Xiao family may not agree.”

Yun Xiaohan snorted and pulled Yun Xiyue to the study.

"You take care of yourself."

He left a message for Xiao Ling'er.

The maid stepped forward to help her up, saying, "Young Madam, that's wonderful. The young master won't divorce his wife."

Xiao Ling'er breathed a sigh of relief, but still felt sad.

"He was ultimately heartless towards me."

Granny Jia said, "Miss, you've been tricked this time. You should be more careful in the future. If you can find the culprit, the young master might look at you differently."

Xiao Ling'er wiped away her tears. "Granny is right. I'll go find my older brother to help me right away."

"Young Madam, the young master said that you cannot leave the manor without his permission." She was stopped before she even stepped out of Moyun Pavilion.

......

"Big brother."

Yun Xiaohan looked at her with heartache in his eyes, "Yue'er, did you go to find him?"

"Ah."

It's all over the place.

The Empress Dowager could not tolerate her.

They would find out sooner or later, so Yun Xiyue decided not to hide it.

Yun Xiaohan felt even more disgusted with Xiao Ling'er.

If it weren't for her, things wouldn't have turned out this way.

Yue'er doesn't need to beg Murong Yu.

"It's my fault for dragging you down," Yun Xiaohan said remorsefully.

"Now everyone knows, so what are his plans?"

Yun Xiyue said, "His Majesty has long wanted me to enter the palace, but I did not agree."

"That......"

How will others view her in the future?

She had no official title or status, and was simply known as the emperor's woman.

"It doesn't matter. From the moment I divorced Shen Yue, I will never be able to find someone who truly wants to marry me."

"Then it's better not to marry."

This world is so harsh on women.

A woman who remarries will be looked down upon; no one will mind that.

Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "Big brother, don't worry about me. This is good. From now on, everyone will know that I have the Emperor backing me up, so no one will bully us."

Yun Xiaohan clenched his fists.

"Moon, he doesn't only have you as his woman, nor does he need you."

"He is an emperor, and his country is his top priority, not you. He can pamper you now, but what about later? Can he pamper you for a lifetime?"
