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

The more you think about it, the angrier you get.

Angry and anxious.

Rouze felt as if all the strength in her body had been drained away. How did things turn out like this?

Shouldn't I be a noble lady who is the center of attention? Why did the situation take a sudden turn for the worse from the moment I took the first step into the Fourth Prince's mansion?

It's true that one wrong step leads to all wrong steps.

There was a buzzing sound in her head and her vision went dark. Rouze was really unconscious this time.

---------

When Rouze woke up again, it was already evening.

She lay down on the bed in Longjing Pavilion, and when she opened her eyes, she saw Yi Zheng sitting in the chair opposite her drinking tea.

"Sister, you're awake." Yixiu saw Rouze open her eyes and said, "I've just discussed with the Fourth Prince that we'll send you to Ganlu Temple in three days. Now that you've opened your eyes, pack up your things."

"Ganlu Temple?"

Rouze screamed, the sharpest sound in her twenty years of life: "How can I go to Ganlu Temple? I have to cut my hair. Cutting hair is like cutting off my head. You might as well give me a bowl of poison and let me die."

Rouze thought of what Yinzhen said before she fell into a coma.

Yinzhen, is he so heartless? Doesn't he care about Ulanara and Consort De?

"I am Ulanala's legitimate daughter! Yixiu, you can't do this to me!"

Yixiu looked at Rouze with disdain and said, "Sister, be content. If you were not the daughter of the Ulanara family, you would be dead now. How can you still speak here? The Fourth Prince has reported the whole story back to the Ulanara Mansion. I heard that Master Xinghui pleaded for sister, but was punished by his father to kneel in the ancestral hall for a day."

"Okay, I've explained everything to my sister. Jianqiu, watch Rouze pack her things and get her to the car. Don't delay the trip."

Yixiu adjusted the gold and jade hairpin on her head, ignored Rouze, and walked out.

This gold-inlaid jade hairpin was given to her by Concubine De when she was named the legitimate wife not long ago. And she will have to report the matter to Concubine De tomorrow.

As for the fact that Rouze only needed to be confined to her house for three months and did not need to shave her head, she deliberately did not tell Rouze.

It would be good to let my sister worry for a while.

--------------

What Yixiu didn't expect was that Xinghui stepped into the door of Yonghe Palace before her.

Empress Defei drove everyone out, leaving only Xinghui talking in the room, and even Zhuxi could only stand at the door.

Seeing Yixiu coming, Zhuxi went to greet her and told the few pieces of information he knew: "Master Xinghui came as soon as the palace gates opened. At first, Concubine De was still angry, so he knelt at the bottom of the steps for a full hour. Concubine De probably felt that kneeling would not be good for her family, so she let him in just now."

Yixiu thought that Xinghui had knelt in the ancestral hall for a whole day yesterday.

Early in the morning, he came to the palace and knelt again.

I've only heard of the iron-hat king in our Qing Dynasty, but I didn't expect that there would be an iron-knee king now.

But since they were already late, Yixiu calmed down and stood at the door waiting with Zhuxi. She chatted with Zhuxi about family matters from time to time and also said a few words about what had been cleared out of the warehouse in the mansion recently and would have someone deliver it to Zhuxi's home outside the palace when she had time to see if it was suitable for use.

Zhuxi was also a bondservant of the Ulanara family, so naturally he was extremely grateful to this young master.

For a respectable maid like Zhuxi, she obviously cared more about the face of being remembered and rewarded by her master than practicality.

After a while, the door finally opened. Zhuxi went in to pass on the message for Yixiu and quickly brought Yixiu in.

Empress Defei sat in the middle, with Xinghui standing beside her.

After Yixiu came in, she politely bowed and greeted Empress Defei, then knelt down and nodded slightly at Xinghui.

She is now the legitimate wife of the Fourth Prince. Although Xinghui is his biological brother, he should return the favor to her.

However, Xinghui seemed not to notice Yixiu coming in. He just stared straight ahead and ignored her.

Yixiu was not annoyed. In the face of the impending victory, such a small detail was not worth mentioning.

"It's only been a few months since you were canonized as the legitimate wife, and such a thing has happened in the mansion. I'm really disappointed." Defei spoke first. Thinking of the last time they met, she had specifically asked Yixiu to take care of Rouze. She was indeed somewhat angry with Yixiu in her heart.

Unexpectedly, Yixiu started crying as soon as she opened her mouth again:

"Mother, I didn't expect my sister to be so foolish. Now, for the sake of the reputation of the Ulanara family, I have to suggest that Fourth Prince send my sister to Ganlu Temple. Otherwise, if the news gets out and we don't do anything, the whole capital will question whether Ulanara is a good parent."

"You know, our Ulanala family still has many good girls waiting to get married."

It’s just pretending to be a good girl, Yixiu thought. Who can’t do that?

She continued, "That day, the princess of the Guoluo family suddenly fell ill. I'm afraid her family knew about it. Besides, there were other concubines and maids present. I was really in a dilemma. I couldn't handle it unfairly."

Yixiu spoke with a righteous voice, but Defei's face was full of doubt.

If you say Rou is confused, she believes that the plot to murder her grandson has been discovered.

But to say that Yixiu had no idea about it beforehand, we have to wait until everyone is present to investigate the matter!

She doesn't believe it!

But Concubine De was in a dilemma.

She was naturally angry at Rouze for not fighting for it, but if she was sent to Ganlu Temple to cut her hair and become a nun, wouldn't that mean that she would have no hope in this life?

After weighing the pros and cons, Concubine De said, "Send her to Ganlu Temple, but she can't be a nun. Just pray for the blessing of the Fourth Prince's entire mansion. It just so happens that two little princes were born in succession in the Fourth Prince's mansion, so we should also chant more sutras to the Buddha."

Yixiu: ...let the murderer chant sutras in front of the Buddha, and I don’t know what sutras she was chanting.

Thinking of Honghui's young face and soft body, Yixiu only regretted that she could not leave Song Rouze to see the Buddha!

But thinking about the fact that Yinzhen had specially sought out Xinghui to play chess not long ago, it might be difficult to get rid of Rouze for the time being. It was obvious that Yinzhen still valued Xinghui.

So she said, "I will listen to you, mother."

"Of course, you and Guo Luoluo are also frightened. I have already ordered people to prepare gifts for you two. You can take them back together later."

After Yixiu came out, Zhuxi was still waiting outside, ready to give Yixiu the gift prepared by Concubine De.

Yixiu just took a glance, asked Jianqiu to harvest it, and then went back home.
