"If there is a way for me to rise above my class, I will do it at all costs."

Their parents were oppressed by others just because they were of low class.

I was young at the time, and apart from panic and fear, I didn't have any other thoughts. I was lucky to be alive. Who would have the energy to pursue the truth?

The lives of ordinary people are as worthless as grass. When they die, they are dead. Who will remember them?

But they are her father and mother.

Yu Xin has asked himself "why" countless times in the past five years

Why is it their home, why is there no way to protect themselves, why does she and her sister have to live the rest of their lives in such a place.

The final answer is just two words - class.

If they had the protection of a noble family, would their families be broken up and they would fall to this point with no one caring about them?

Since there isn't any, she will have to fight her way out on her own and go to the legendary world of upper-class people to see what exactly makes them different from her.

Yu Miao also knew that his sister was not as harmless as she appeared to be, and the decision she made was irreversible.

All she could do was protect her from harm as best she could.

Yu Xin felt that this topic was too serious and softly put her arm around Yu Miao.

"Mom gave us a rare day off, so my sister took me out for a walk!"

She didn't want to worry her sister with these things.

Just let her do all the work.

She has grown up, and now it's her turn to protect her sister.

"Okay."

.

The two changed into ordinary women's clothes and went out into the street.

Of course, there were many guards from the Red Mansion following behind them to ensure their safety.

This was the first time Yu Miao visited a market in an ancient city in this world.

Everything you see is new and everything you encounter is fresh.

"Look, sister!"

Yu Xin stood at a jewelry stall with a curious look on her face.

These ornaments were all carved from very common objects. Now she was staring at a peony carved from stone.

Yu Miao was very interested in this handicraft carved from walnuts, which reminded her of a high school text called "The Walnut Boat".

Really exquisite!

"If you two girls like it, I'm willing to sell it to you at a low price!"

The lady selling jewelry smiled. She had never seen such a beautiful person!

She said auspicious words: "This stone peony sculpture is my old man's specialty. The girl really has a good eye."

Peony?

Yu Xin suddenly felt that what he held in his hand was just an ordinary stone sculpture.

"Let's wait and see."

Yu Miao and the stall owner were both a little puzzled.

She clearly seemed to like this stone sculpture very much?

When they walked a distance, she couldn't help but ask, "Xin'er, why don't you want it? Sister brought the silver."

Yu Xin curled her lips and said a little embarrassedly: "Actually, I don't like stone carvings, I just like peonies. After all, 'Only peonies are the true national beauty'. Only such noble and bright flowers can match us, right?"

After hearing the reason why she liked peonies, Yu Miao just wanted to applaud.

This girl can become something great!

This is much better than just eating and waiting to die.

This ambition is about to overflow!

"Make way, make way!"

A horse rushed towards them like crazy. Yu Xin subconsciously used her back to protect Yu Miao, but someone was one step ahead of them and pushed them away.

Seeing this, the guards from Honglou came over a little late, and Hong Xing hurriedly helped them up.

"Uu——"

"I'm sorry, I'm sorry, are the two girls injured?"

A clear voice sounded. Even though the pattern on the clothes was simple, it was easy to tell that it was not cheap material.

His whole body exudes a noble aura that makes people dare not look directly at him.

"Is it serious?"

A carriage arrived late, and a loud voice came from inside.

"Master, please slow down~"

Yu Miao heard the voice and thought it sounded so familiar.

Isn’t this the standard configuration of eunuchs in palace fighting dramas?

Until the man in the carriage came out, Yu Miao really wanted to say that the TV series did not deceive me.

Even though he was not wearing the dragon robe, Yu Miao could still recognize that he was the emperor by instinct.

It should be that nobility nourishes people. Even though he has wrinkles, one can tell the difference between him and the working people at a glance.

More importantly, as soon as he appears, everyone will bow their heads unconsciously, which is a complete submission to the person in power.

Yu Miao looked at himself and Yu Xin kneeling on the ground in embarrassment, and remembered a line - "Do you still remember Xia Yuhe by the Daming Lake?"

He looked at Yu Xin, who was as soft as a boneless body beside him and was sitting limply on the ground because of being frightened.

You know what, it looks quite like crape myrtle.

only……

She accidentally made eye contact with the emperor and saw the disbelief and joy in his eyes.

Did she see it wrong?

Yu Xin and the gentle young man standing there naturally did not miss the change in the middle-aged man's eyes.

She stood up with great effort: "I pay my respects to... the master."

When Yu Miao heard her almost blurt out "greetings to the emperor", he knew that she also saw the difference in the identity of the person in front of her.

I followed her example and bowed deeply to the two nobles.

His original thoughts were interrupted, and the middle-aged man asked someone to help the two people up.

"Li's horse was frightened, but I don't think the two girls were hurt."

"Fortunately, this young master acted in time and we were not injured."

It would be inappropriate to cause too much trouble on the street, so Li Jing had them taken to the clinic.

After the diagnosis, he learned that they were just frightened and were not seriously injured, so he asked with interest: "How did you know our identities?"

Yu Xin smiled slightly: "Your Excellency has the appearance of a dragon and a phoenix. Even without the python robe, one can still see the strong dragon aura."

Yu Miao listened from the side and scratched the ground with his toes.

Strong dragon energy.

I haven't heard such a niche description for a long time.

However, it seems that the prince enjoys it quite a bit.

Even though he tried hard to restrain himself, Yu Miao could still see the corners of his mouth tending to rise.

"Hey? Did this girl stay in the capital for a while? I seem to have seen her somewhere."

She seemed to have heard this sentence somewhere before.

Yu Miao lowered her head and said, "No, I have only lived in Yangzhou City since I was a child."

Li Jing looked at the two of them thoughtfully.

The look in my father's eyes when he looked at this slightly older woman just now was obviously unusual. It could be said that he was amazed, but more of it was a sense of déjà vu and disbelief.

He had heard from the maids in the palace that his father once had a beloved concubine, but unfortunately, the emperor took his minister's wife away, and the woman's identity was unclear, so she was ultimately unable to stay.

"Are you twins?" He asked inquiringly.

"Yes."

"But, they don't look so similar?"

Yu Xin replied: "Many people have said that I look more like my mother, and my sister looks more like my father."

"Oh……"

Li Jing nodded and returned to his gentle smile.

"I almost caused two girls to get hurt today. I feel really bad. Why don't you give me your address? I will come to your house to apologize someday."
