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

Chapter 361

If there's a next time, we'll directly target the Pei family.

Pei Fang's face turned pale. "Can you bear to see her being criticized, with people saying she's your mistress?"

"If you guys don't do anything behind the scenes, who will care about these things?"

Pei Fang looked up at Yun Xiyue, then glared at her fiercely. "Why don't you want to enter the palace? You can choose from the positions of Consort Shu, Consort Xian, or Consort De. What more could you want? Do you want to be the Empress?"

Yun Xiyue smiled and said, "Your Highness, I actually envy you. As a Noble Consort, you manage the Imperial Seal of the Harem, yet you don't have to bear the responsibilities of an Empress. No matter what you do, the Emperor always indulges and protects you, doesn't he?"

Being an empress was not as easy as she had imagined.

Each and every mistress of a noble household has her own story of hardship and tears.

She felt it was better to just be pampered.

"It wouldn't be an exaggeration to call her a favored concubine."

Pei Fang felt that she was being sarcastic. "Are you showing off to me? You got my cousin, but I never got one."

"Even my cousin doesn't want to favor me."

Murong Yu's face immediately darkened. "Aren't you ashamed?!"

Pei Fang snorted, her skin already thickened. "That's right. Since you can touch Yun Xiyue, why don't you want to consummate your marriage with me? If you were my husband, I wouldn't be making a fuss with you."

“The Emperor dotes on you like a younger sister; the Imperial Concubine should cherish that,” Yun Xiyue said.

Pei Fang's expression changed slightly. "I don't want to be his sister, I want to be his woman."

“But you and the Emperor really have a child, and the child may not be healthy in the future…” Yun Xiyue had heard her master say that it was best for cousins ​​not to get married, otherwise the child might be deformed or something.

Deformity is definitely not a good word.

Before she could finish speaking, Pei Fang angrily scolded, "Yun Xiyue, how dare you curse my child with the Emperor!"

Murong Yu said, "I will not have any children with you."

“Cousin…” Pei Fang was deeply shocked and ran away crying.

Yun Xiyue found it strange and asked, "Your Majesty, why do you refuse to favor the concubines in the harem?"

They didn't know each other before.

He was also a man of strong character and passion.

"I am not a promiscuous person. If I were not so virtuous, A-Yue would have already found me dirty!"

"I'm glad I didn't touch these women."

Yun Xiyue was shocked, "Then you..."

Murong Yu narrowed his eyes slightly, "So A-Yue can't keep making me endure this! Otherwise, I'll get sick of it."

"..."

Yun Xiyue blushed deeply. "Can you be serious for once? You are the Emperor."

"The Emperor is a normal man too."

"It's just that no one else can arouse my interest."

Murong Yu has very high standards for his partner and also has strong self-control. He was raised as the crown prince from a young age, and his every word and action was closely watched.

He won't want a woman who doesn't suit his taste.

That day, he actually knew that she had been kidnapped and taken to the palace.

After hearing about it from someone, I became interested and decided to go and see for myself.

Little did he know that he would be embraced by her as soon as he arrived at the Imperial Garden.

In her delirium, she hugged him, kissing him and tearing at his robes.

She clearly took advantage of her, yet she cried her eyes out...

Upon discovering that it really was her, and recalling the way she looked in her fiery red wedding dress on the day she married Shen Yue, he inexplicably carried her back to his palace.

"Actually, I've known you for a long time."

Yunshang asked in surprise, "When did you meet?"

“I have been to Yunzhou, and we met there, but only briefly. Later, I saw you again at Shen Yue’s wedding.”

"Because I was still the Crown Prince at that time, and a lot happened that year."

First, his father passed away, then Prince Qi rebelled, and not long after, they went to war with the Southern Qiang.

He had too many things to do after ascending the throne to think about matters of the heart.

And just like that, we missed each other.
