All the people in the Hou Mansion are evil, and they will be repaid tenfold after rebirth

"Li Li, it's so late, why aren't you resting yet?" A voice came from behind. It was Jiang Jilian.

Jiang Lili turned around and saw her father standing in the moonlight with a smile on his face.

"Dad, I can't sleep." Jiang Lili said softly.

Jiang Jilian came over, sat next to Jiang Lili, looked at the night sky, and said slowly: "Lili, do you know? When Dad was young, he also had many dreams. However, as time passed, some dreams gradually faded away."

Jiang Lili looked at her father, a hint of doubt in her eyes.

"Dad means that there are many things in life that we cannot force. You should be able to feel the Crown Prince's feelings for you. However, whether you can become his concubine depends on God's will." Jiang Jilian said earnestly.

Jiang Lili was silent for a moment. Her father was right. In her heart, she had both admiration for the prince and worries about the future.

"Dad, I understand." Jiang Lili said softly.

Jiang Jilian smiled and patted Jiang Lili on the shoulder: "Okay, go back and rest. There are still many things to do tomorrow."

Jiang Lili nodded, stood up, and followed her father back to the room. She lay on the bed, but her heart was still restless.

"Yundi, look at you...you seem quite relaxed." The person who came was Lu Yundi's second sister-in-law, Zhu.

Zhu walked into the room and gently closed the door, her eyes full of concern for Lu Yundi. She walked to the bedside, sat opposite Lu Yundi, and asked carefully: "Yundi, are you really okay? I heard from the servants that your mood was greatly affected by Ye Wanxue's matter."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly. Although her face was a little pale, her eyes were firm as usual: "Second sister-in-law, I'm fine. I'm just a little tired and need to rest."

Zhu sighed and gently patted Lu Yundi's hand: "Yundi, do you know? People in the mansion are talking about Ye Wanxue's incident. Everyone says that she is overestimating her own abilities and dared to do it when you were sick."

A cold light flashed in Lu Yundi's eyes: "She thought that she could take advantage of my absence to gain power. She really underestimated me."

Zhu nodded, with a bitter smile on her face: "Yes, she probably didn't expect that you would suddenly come back and expose her conspiracy in one go."

The two were silent for a while, and Zhu suddenly said, "Yundi, I heard that you slapped her twice when you came back. Did you do this to make an example of her?"

Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "Second sister-in-law, you are right. I just want everyone to know that Zhenxing Marquis Mansion is my home, and no one can mess around on my territory."

Zhu looked at Lu Yundi with a hint of admiration in her eyes: "Yundi, you are really strong. If it were me, I would have been so angry that I couldn't control myself."

Lu Yundi shook her head gently: "Second sister-in-law, I know you are doing this for my own good. But I must handle this matter myself. I can't let anyone look down on me, and I can't let Jiang Jilian misunderstand me."

Zhu sighed: "Yun Di, you are always so strong-willed. But I am relieved. At least, you have me by your side now."

Lu Yundi held Zhu's hand and smiled gratefully: "Second sister-in-law, I am really relieved to have you here. In this mansion, besides Jiang Jilian, you are the one closest to me."

Zhu gently patted the back of Lu Yundi's hand and said, "Yundi, I know you are suffering. Ever since you married into the Zhenxing Marquis' Mansion, you have always been at the center of controversy. I have also heard about the twists and turns of Ye Wanxue's incident this time. But don't worry, I will always support you."

As she spoke, a trace of worry flashed in Zhu's eyes: "But, if you hit her directly like this, aren't you afraid of causing Jiang Jilian's dissatisfaction? After all, she is his."

Lu Yundi's eyes were firm: "Second sister-in-law, I know Jiang Jilian. He is a wise man. He knows my position in the mansion and my feelings for him. I will find a chance to explain it to him. I believe he will understand me."

Zhu nodded, and couldn't help asking, "What are you going to do with Ye Wanxue?"

Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "Since she dared to attack me when I was sick, don't blame me for being rude. I will let her know who is the real mistress in Zhenxing Marquis Mansion."

After hearing this, Zhu's eyes flashed with worry. She pondered for a moment, then slowly said, "Yun Di, how are you going to let her know?"

Lu Yundi gently patted Zhu's hand and said, "Second sister-in-law, don't worry. I know my limits. People like Ye Wanxue are just clowns. It's not worth my personal intervention. I will let the servants take care of this matter and let her understand her position."

Zhu nodded slightly, feeling a little comforted: "Then I'm relieved. But you have to be careful and don't let Jiang Jilian misunderstand."

At this time, footsteps were heard outside the house, and Lu Yundi's maid Xiang Zhu came in with a bowl of medicine in her hand: "Madam, it's time to take the medicine."

Lu Yundi nodded slightly, and Xiang Zhu handed her the medicine bowl. Zhu immediately stood up and asked with concern: "Yundi, can you handle it?"

Lu Yundi smiled and shook her head: "Second sister-in-law, I'm fine. Take this medicine and you'll be fine soon."

Zhu watched Lu Yundi drink the medicine and couldn't help feeling deeply moved.

After drinking the medicine, Zhu sat back on the bed and continued chatting with Lu Yundi. She talked about trivial matters in her mother's family, trying to distract Lu Yundi and relax her mind.

"Yundi, don't think that just because your father and brother are not here, there will be no one in the Lu family to protect you." Zhu looked at Lu Yundi's room and asked, "Why is your room so plain?"

As soon as Zhu finished speaking, Lu Yundi's eyes flashed with tenderness. She knew that her second sister-in-law was expressing her concern in her own way. She smiled gently, took Zhu's hand and stood up: "Second sister-in-law, I know you are worried about me, but the people of the Lu family are always in my heart, they just can't show up often."

As she spoke, Lu Yundi walked to the window, opened it, and let fresh air flow into the room. She turned around and said to Zhu: "Come, I'll show you my room, and let me breathe a little more."

Zhu followed Lu Yundi's steps and carefully observed every corner of the room. The room was decorated simply and generously, with a few calligraphy and paintings hanging on the wall, a few potted plants placed on the table, and a faint fragrance in the air.

"Yun Di, your room is decorated in your own style," Zhu praised. "It's simple yet elegant. No wonder you can stay calm in such an environment."

Lu Yundi smiled slightly: "Second sister-in-law, I like this kind of environment. It makes me feel quiet and allows me to think."
