After the mistress of the Marquis' Mansion was reborn, she divorced and married the prince!

Xu Chunlan made up her mind.

She couldn't afford to offend Prince Jing, so she might as well tell the truth and ask for forgiveness from Princess Jing.

Song Yunqi has been rescued, and all her father's plans have been in vain. Only if Princess Jing forgives her, she still has a chance to survive.

Xu Chunlan kowtowed quickly, "Please spare my life, Princess. Please save me. I don't want to do this either. Which woman wants to marry like this?"

"If I marry into my husband's family through calculation, I won't be able to live a happy life. I don't even know if my husband's family will treat me as a human being!"

"Although I don't want to do this, but...but I am just a concubine's daughter whose aunt has passed away..."

"In order to marry me to the Second Young Master Song, the mistress who had never liked me even registered me under her name and gave me the title of a legitimate daughter..."

Song Mingli listened to her finish her words while crying.

"You are not stupid. You know that at this time, telling the truth is the only way to save yourself."

Song Mingli smiled and said, "Get up. I won't embarrass a little girl like you."

"As long as you do what I say, I will believe that what happened tonight was not your intention. I believe you were forced into a situation."

Xu Chunlan looked at Song Mingli anxiously, "My lord, my princess, what do you want me to do?"

"Come here." Song Mingli called her forward.

"Why would your father target my second brother from the Song family? Your father is the father-in-law of King Cheng."

Xu Chunlan pursed her lips and said, "I don't know much about it, but from what my father said, it was King Cheng who asked him to ask a matchmaker to go to the Song family to propose marriage."

Song Mingli was silent for a moment, then nodded slightly, "In that case, when someone comes to block you, you should do this..."

Song Mingli gave some instructions in a low voice.

Xu Chunlan knelt down at Song Mingli's feet, "Princess Jing... Mother will not let me go. She is not my biological mother and she has no affection for me."

"That's your business." Song Mingli said calmly, "Everyone has to pay the price for their actions."

"The path I pointed out to you is already the best path for you. If you don't agree, that's fine with me. Then just make a big deal out of it!"

"It just so happens that it's the Mid-Autumn Festival Palace Banquet, so everyone can not only eat moon cakes and fat crabs in the palace, but also watch a lively scene."

Xu Chunlan shook violently, and Song Yunqi had disappeared.

If the matter gets out of hand, no one will be able to get involved in this dirty water.

Instead, the Xu family and she have become a complete joke in Kyoto!

Actually, Princess Jing is right...

The path she pointed out was already the most beneficial one for him.

Daddy is too impatient. He dared to plot against the Song family at the palace banquet. Didn't he think about what would happen if he failed?

"Your Highness...understood."

Xu Chunlan bowed his head in greeting.

Without looking up, she heard the rubbing of fabric and the slight sound of a door opening.

When she looked up, she was the only one left in the room.

Xu Chunlan's body went limp and she fell onto her ankles.

"There is no hope..."

Originally, she looked down on the Song family.

She felt that she could marry someone better, but ever since that day in the restaurant when Song Yunqi played his flute and her piano, Song Yunqi's handsome face always appeared in front of her eyes.

He and his group of friends stood outside the private room.

He was like the moon surrounded by stars. He stood tall and straight, like a tall pine or cypress.

His cold and aloof temperament makes him different from the group of friends around him.

He is different from others.

It made her want to look up, want to get closer, and even want to chase his gaze.

However, her father's plan ruined everything.

……

"It's in this room. This is a place for women to rest and change clothes." A woman's voice was heard outside the hall.

"Lan'er, Lan'er, are you in there?" Mrs. Xu called out from outside, "Why don't you answer? Open the door and take a look."

Mrs. Xu looked suspiciously at Xu Chunlan's personal maid standing beside her.

Isn't this right?

The house is too quiet.

Normally, there should have been a sound by now. She brought her two handkerchiefs and handed them over, and a palace maid led the way.

There was a noise in the room at this moment, and one could tell by listening that something unspeakable was happening in the room.

In a hurry, she pushed the door open and ran into the second boy from the Song family bullying her daughter.

Also, this is where women change clothes.

If there was a mistake, it was the Song family kid who made the mistake! He must be responsible for his own daughter!

But the room was so quiet at this moment that she wondered if she had come too early.

But Xu Chunlan's maid told her that Chunlan had been there for an incense stick of time.

In theory, that's enough time, right?

Mrs. Xu felt a gloomy feeling in her heart. While she was thinking about it, the palace maid had already pushed open the door.

Mrs. Xu took the lead and entered the house.

The noise from the banquet could still be heard outside, but the house was actually much quieter.

There was an oil lamp lit on the table. Under the dim light, one could see a person lying on the bed inside the gauze curtain.

Mrs. Xu frowned, she stepped forward and suddenly lifted the gauze curtain, her eyelids jumped involuntarily.

"Lan'er! Lan'er, wake up!"

She called twice, but Xu Chunlan didn't wake up.

"What's going on? Wake her up quickly." Mrs. Xu's brows were twisted into knots.

Seeing this, the two ladies who came with her couldn't help but whisper, "Why are you sleeping here at the palace banquet?"

"Thank goodness Sister Xu was still worried about her. It turns out she was just too sleepy and fell asleep."

Mrs. Xu smiled awkwardly, "I've never seen this child so sleepy on weekdays, have I?"

The maid woke Xu Chunlan up.

Xu Chunlan rubbed her eyes and sat up, "Mother, I..."

"Ahem! Didn't you say you were not feeling well and came here to rest for a while? How come you fell asleep?" Mrs. Xu interrupted her with a quick cough.

When catching an adulterer, catch two.

Now there was no trace of Song Yunqi in the room at all. She was afraid that Xu Chunlan would say something nonsense, which would not only make it impossible for her to control the Song family, but would also ruin her own reputation.

In front of Mrs. Xu, Xu Chunlan looked confused.

"Also, why didn't you bring your maid with you when you came here to rest? It's so inappropriate for you to sleep here alone!" Mrs. Xu scolded.

Xu Chunlan quickly put on her shoes and got out of bed, "Mother, calm down. I know I was wrong."

"I don't know why, but I felt sleepy as soon as I came in, and fell asleep on the bed... My daughter won't do that again next time."

"Okay, okay, the kid didn't do it on purpose, don't blame her."

"Let's go back to the palace banquet. It's not good to be away for too long."

The other two ladies quickly advised.

Mrs. Xu quickly agreed with a smile, but when the two ladies turned to leave, she glared at Xu Chunlan fiercely.

Xu Chunlan looked puzzled, "Mother, I..."

"Let's talk about it when we get back." Mrs. Xu's brows were twisted into knots.

After they left, Song Mingli took Molan out from the shadows of the trees.

"The second young master should be fine, right?" Molan asked in a low voice.

Song Mingli nodded, "Let's go back to the palace banquet first."

When Song Mingli returned to the banquet, Nanxing was already waiting for her outside the palace gate.

"My second brother..."
