Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

Yixiu said, "I guess Prince Xun rejected you twice before, so he was embarrassed to tell Silang again, so he could only use this roundabout tactic."

Yinzhen stared at her closely and said, "The Queen has known the Fourteenth Prince since childhood. She has really figured out his thoughts thoroughly. What do you think he is thinking?"

"Prince Xun is not much older than Honghui. Men of his age probably think similarly to Honghui. I am just making some guesses."

Yixiu was flustered, but she forced herself to calm down and said, "Silang, you are Prince Xun's elder brother, so you must be able to see his thoughts better."

Yinzhen said, "In that case, you can help the Fourteenth Prince choose someone. The Fourteenth Prince has rejected me twice before. If I were to ask him, I'm afraid he would refuse for the sake of his own face. In order to protect his face, how about the Queen talking to him about marrying a wife?"

Yixiu subconsciously wanted to refuse, but thinking that this might be another test from Yinzhen, she said, "I obey your order."

Hearing Yixiu's straightforward agreement, Yinzhen's suspicions faded a little.

When Yixiu came out of the imperial study, she had a layer of cold sweat on her back.

She knew that Yinzhen's suspicion of her and Yunli had never been eliminated, and today's test made her tread on thin ice.

She was worried about Yunli, but she didn't dare to show it.

However, she felt in her heart that she had made the right move by taking power from Lao Ba.

At the beginning, she just had a sudden thought and felt that since he helped them, he must get something in return.

Now it seems that she still has to help Honghui gather more power.

On the other hand, Yunli was still continuing his "acting" in the brothel.

He didn't know that Yinzhen had tested Yixiu, but he indulged in wine and sex every day, and his heart became more and more bitter.

He felt that by doing this, he could more or less dispel Yinzhen's doubts.

As the days passed, Yunli's reputation in the brothel grew, but Yinzhen never found him.

Yunli felt that perhaps he no longer had any doubts.

He would not think of blaming Yixiu just because he saw himself.

Unexpectedly, he soon received an order from Yinzhen summoning him into the palace.

Yunli calmly straightened his clothes and entered the palace with Gao Lang.

When he arrived at the palace, Yunli found that Yinzhen was not in the Yangxin Palace, but met Yixiu here instead.

It had been nearly a year since he last saw Yixiu. He suppressed his emotions and walked forward to pay his respects.

"Your Majesty, the Queen."

Yixiu smiled slightly and said, "Prince Xun, there is no need to be so polite. Please stand up."

Yun Yu said, "My brother the emperor originally called me here today, but I didn't expect that my brother the emperor was not here, so I retreated outside and waited."

"Prince Xun, there is no need to be so reserved."

Yi Xiu smiled and said, "You are the emperor's younger brother, so you are naturally my younger brother as well."

"The Emperor asked the Prince to come here today, and he wanted me to worry about the Prince's marriage."

Yi Xiu made up her mind, "I have also heard about the prince's recent lingering in brothels. Today, I will be your brother's lobbyist and persuade the prince."

Yunzhi's heart tightened, but he still had a smile on his face and said, "Your Majesty, please forgive me. I just went there to have fun."

Yi Xiu said: "Your Highness is already old now, it's time for him to think about his own life. The Empress Dowager and the Emperor are very concerned about this."

"Sister-in-law, I have no such plan at the moment. I said before that I would first establish a career and then start a family. If I don't want to pacify Dzungar Khanate, I—"

His words stopped abruptly.

He saw Yixiu's eyes, which were so calm, without any concern or blame.

The tacit understanding developed in Tongcheng now came to mind.

He smiled and changed his words, "Ah, it's my fault. My brother had suggested arranging a marriage for me several times before, but I was young at that time and didn't know the benefits of starting a family. I just said that I had to pacify Dzungar first."

"Now on the battlefield, the soldiers under my command all have people they miss, but I have no one to miss. I am a little envious, but I have already said it, and I am too embarrassed to change my words."

"I didn't expect that my brother the Emperor would find out and even arrange for his sister-in-law to come and propose marriage for me."

Yi Xiu smiled and said, "Face is important, but inner comfort is more important. Your Highness is already an adult, and he also needs to think about his future. Today, I want to talk to you about getting married."

Yunyu said, "Have you already chosen someone, Madam?"

Yixiu said slowly, "I have selected several famous ladies for you. Please listen. Wanyan Luocha, the daughter of the Minister of Rites, is gentle and polite. The daughter of Shushujueluo Mingde, the Deputy Minister, is also diligent and quiet."

"The daughter of the second-class guard Irgen Jueluo Shibao, who comes from a family of military commanders, is very heroic and I think she has a lot in common with the prince."

"She is the second daughter of the Xitai daughter family of the Yirgen Jueluo clan of the Dianwei clan. Although her family background is not high, she is well-known for her virtue."

Yunzhi was silent for a moment, then said, "Thank you for your concern, Your Majesty. I will go back and think about it."

He added, "After all, I have never seen them, so I still need to think carefully. Does the Queen have any portraits of them? I will go back and take a closer look."
