After transmigrating into the book, I replaced the innocent-looking girl and became the Crown Prince

In her memory, when the original owner followed the steward into the mansion that day, she saw a slender figure wearing a bamboo hat and a veil walking quickly out of the back door. At that time, the person even bumped into her.

If her memory serves her right, a light green purse embroidered with dragonflies playing in the water had fallen to the ground. Just as she picked it up to return it, the person ran away even faster as if fleeing.

Looking back now, it must have been because the female protagonist was afraid of something going wrong if she tried to escape, which is why she didn't care about getting her things back.

He stared at her intently until he saw that she was almost out of breath before he let go of her.

"If we find out you're lying, the consequences will be worse than being stabbed through the heart."

The prince had fought on the battlefield, and his eyes were filled with murderous intent. If Wu Weiwei hadn't received high-altitude training in modern times, she probably would have collapsed by now.

However, while she was genuinely afraid, she was also genuinely excited.

He watched as she leaned forward slightly, her red lips parted as she peered at him, her expression showing no fear, but rather as if she had seen something that excited her.

Upon seeing this, Lu Hanting's Adam's apple bobbed.

Isn't she afraid of him?

Seeing him like this, Wu Weiwei knew that he had let go of his murderous aura.

With her eyes alluring, she said softly, "Your Highness, you're drunk. Let me help you to bed for a while!"

He did drink a bit too much tonight, which is why he asked Liu Yun to call over Wu Weiwei, who looks just like him.

His hazy eyes were fixed on her, his reason telling him to stay away, but his body let her help him onto the bed.

She had finally managed to settle him into bed, and as she got up to pour herself a cup of tea to quench her thirst, the prince suddenly embraced her from behind, calling out emotionally:

"Yan'er, my Yan'er... why are you so cruel!"

"Young Master, I am not Miss Cousin..."

Wu Weiwei tried to break free, but men are naturally stronger than women, not to mention that the prince was a martial arts practitioner.

Unable to break free immediately, Wu Weiwei simply gave up trying to pry him off and let him hold her in his arms.

“Your Highness, look carefully. I am not Miss Cousin, I am Wu Weiwei. I know you don’t want to sleep with me.”

"Who said that? You are my Yan'er, and you are the concubine I wish to take into the Marquis's mansion."

Wu Weiwei's heart skipped a beat.

She wondered if she should take advantage of his drunkenness to seduce him into proposing to marry her.

But after thinking about it, I decided against it; what a drunkard says can't be taken seriously.

Looking at his handsome face, which seemed to have been sculpted by an artist, she had to admit that he was the most handsome man she had ever seen in her twenty-eight years of life.

She had tasted simple porridge and side dishes, and she had also eaten delicacies from land and sea, but she had never tasted the ancient princes and nobles, especially a handsome man like Lu Hanting, who was both aloof and charmingly wicked.

She recalled the plot; did it mention that the prince and the female lead slept together?

It seems not.

To verify the truth, Wu Weiwei cautiously asked, "Your Highness, have you ever slept with a woman?"

The man holding her from behind raised his eyes slightly, feeling that his Yan'er was acting very strangely today, why was she saying such strange things.

However, the alcohol had a strong aftereffect, and in his hazy state, he fell asleep holding her.

Sleep until midnight.

The man held her and tried to do something indecent. At first, Wu Weiwei refused him, but it seemed that the more she refused, the more determined he became.

I wonder if he even knows who he's holding or sleeping with.

As the days passed and the time for the female lead's return drew closer, Wu Weiwei decided to go all out.

Without sleeping, how can one rise to power? And without rising to power, how can one have the confidence to fight with the female lead?

Alright, I'll make an exception for today!

She just treated it as being bitten by a dog, a lesson learned.

Since she had decided to become the most powerful woman in the Marquis of Dingguo's mansion, sleeping with someone was inevitably part of the way to gain that position.

At the break of dawn.

"Um……"

She twisted her body, trying to remove the large hand that was on her waist.

The man's hand was steady and strong, as if it were attached to her body, and she couldn't shake it off.

This happened several times, which startled the man awake. He opened his eyes and his sharp, eagle-like eyes swept over.

Why are you here?

Wu Weiwei had just woken up. She had initially thought it was because her little puppy was being too clingy, constantly pawing at her.

"Your Highness, you were the one who had Liuyun summon me last night. You were drunk..."

Wu Weiwei hesitated, only saying half of what she meant, leaving the rest to his imagination.

Lu Hanting rubbed his head as fragmented memories from last night flooded back.

He recalled drinking heavily last night to drown his sorrows, and overhearing the servants in the mansion gossiping that Wu Weiwei was actually imitating Yan'er.

All I remember is that I scolded her yesterday, and then she helped me into bed...

He mistook Wu Weiwei for Yan'er.

The atmosphere remained silent for a long while.

"Get up."

He cleared his throat and said in a deep voice.

Looking at his expressionless face, Wu Weiwei wondered if he would take advantage of her and then deny it.

A short while later, the servants who had heard the commotion outside brought in two basins of water.

As the prince's former personal maid, Wu Weiwei was supposed to help him get up.

"Ouch……"

With a soft exclamation, Wu Weiwei appeared, her hands swaying gracefully at her hips.

Lu Hanting raised an eyebrow at her.

"I think I twisted my back from overexertion last night. I thought it would be fine by the end of the night, but..."

Wu Weiwei looked at him, her face showing a troubled expression.

She was always the one being served; she had never helped a man dress.

"You should rest now; the new moon will serve you."

Lu Hanting frowned as he looked at her.

I thought to myself how fragile women are.

After the prince had been gone for a while, Wu Weiwei began to put on her clothes.

She walked all the way from Qingsong Courtyard back to the servants' quarters, and was seen by many people in the mansion.

"I heard she stayed at the Green Pine Courtyard last night. Could it be that the young master favored her?"

"Look at the way she was walking just now, isn't that right?"

"She's risen to a higher social status, like a phoenix on a branch. It seems our Marquis's mansion will soon have a new master..."

"What master? With her status, she's nothing more than a concubine's maid!"

The maids who were sweeping and cleaning were joking around, but in reality, they were mocking Wu Weiwei for her low social status.

Qiu Shui Pavilion.

Today, the Crown Prince is having a rare opportunity to have breakfast with the Lady of the Marquis.

Looking at the various delicacies served up by the servants, the prince did not seem to have much of an appetite.

"I heard you had another hangover last night?"

Lady Hou asked with concern.

Lu Hanting didn't even lift his eyelids, and simply said, "I just had a couple of too many drinks."

Seeing her son still so listless, Madam Liu said with heartache, "The dead cannot be brought back to life. Let bygones be bygones! Now you not only bear the weight of the Marquis's mansion on your shoulders, but also His Majesty's high regard for you."

Ting'er has not attended court for a whole month. If this continues, I'm afraid the emperor will think his son is not up to the task and that someone else will take his place.

“I know what I’m doing, Mother, you don’t need to worry.”

Seeing that her son was confident, Liu was relieved.

As she was finishing her breakfast, Lady Liu recalled the gossip among the servants in the mansion earlier that day.

"I've heard about what happened last night. How is that girl?"

"Ok?"

Are you satisfied with her?

Lu Hanting now understood what his mother meant.

He suddenly felt a little uncomfortable.

"It's okay."

His words were brief and concise, just like his style of doing things.

"What do you intend to do with her?"

When that person was mentioned, a face with light makeup and pure, stunning beauty immediately popped into his mind.

We spent the night together last night, and I don't think I'm that averse to her, except that I'm a bit lazy.

"Mother, you decide what to do!"

After finishing the last mouthful of porridge in his bowl, Lu Hanting stood up and said, "I'm going to court."

Watching her son walk away quickly, Lady Hou said to Granny Qiu beside her, "It seems that Wu Weiwei really has some ability."

"Indeed, Madam. In just one night, the young master actually rallied and went to court."

If Wu Weiwei heard this, she would probably laugh her head off.

She probably didn't even know that the prince's sudden change to being ambitious was related to her.

"Granny Qiu, what rank do you think I should give her?"

“Madam, the young master is not yet married. Logically, the Marquis’s mansion should not have taken in a concubine before the principal wife has entered the household.”
