Chapter 105 The show is about to begin
At this time, Yun Jinxi was still immersed in the beautiful dream she had woven, and was completely unaware of the danger approaching. She hugged the Second Prince, enjoying the sweetness and warmth of this moment. However, their actions attracted the attention of the guards outside the door, and they couldn't help but be moved.
At this moment, Yun Yuxi and Yue Lan appeared outside the old lady's yard. Seeing this scene, Yun Yuxi's mouth corners slightly raised, revealing a smug smile. Yue Lan immediately walked to her side and whispered: "Princess, as you expected, the second prince is indeed having an affair with the third lady of the prime minister's mansion..." As she spoke, Yue Lan's face flushed.
Yun Yuxi smiled and nodded, then whispered, "Go set fire to Yun Jinxi's yard to lure away the guard. Here is a colorless and odorless aphrodisiac. Throw it in Yun Jinxi's room and no one will notice it afterwards. Then find a way to lure the people in the mansion over here."
Yue Lan acted quickly and successfully distracted the guards at the door. Then, she quickly walked into Yun Jinxi's room and gently sprinkled the aphrodisiac. After completing the task, she set a fire in the yard, then hurried away and walked towards Qiuyun Pavilion.
Several maids who had received the silver shouted that there was a fire and a fire. Yuelan took advantage of the chaos to leave the prime minister's residence early to avoid being recognized by the maids.
Soon the servants came rushing to put out the fire. It wasn't a big fire and was quickly put out. However, the crazy breathing sounds of the man and woman in the room scared the servants.
Soon the Prime Minister, Mrs. Liu and the others rushed over. The Prime Minister's heart skipped a beat, and even Mrs. Liu's face turned pale with fright. Yun Ruyan's expression was even uglier.
The prime minister took a deep breath, drove out the servants, and then asked the guards around him to open the door.
The sudden light irritated the Second Prince's eyes. He saw Yun Jinxi under him, then looked at the people outside the room. His eyes rolled back and he fainted.
Yun Jinxi was lying on the bed, sobbing. Yun Ruyan came up to her and slapped her in the face, cursing, "You bitch, you actually did such a shameful thing in broad daylight in the mansion. And he's your future brother-in-law..." Yun Ruyan was so angry that she started beating Yun Jinxi left and right, and soon Yun Jinxi became like a pig's head.
The second prince finally woke up under the treatment of the court physician. Yun Ruyan looked at the second prince with fire in her eyes.
"Yan'er. It was Yun Jinxi who seduced me. I don't know what happened, but I did such a thing in a daze. Please forgive me. You are my only wife." The second prince said a little guilty.
"Second Prince, you should give me an explanation. You asked to marry my eldest daughter, but you ruined my third daughter. I will go to see the emperor now."
"Father, I will go with you. Please, Your Majesty, cancel this marriage," Yun Ruyan cried. This frightened the Second Prince.
In the end, the second prince and the prime minister made some kind of deal, and the situation calmed down.
"Father, it's nothing, I'll go back now," Yun Yuxi said, and then turned around and pushed Yan Wuque away. In the carriage, Yun Yuxi laughed and said, "Prime Minister's Mansion, this is just the beginning."
Liu raised her hand and slapped Yun Jinxi with all her strength, her eyes full of disappointment and anger: "You useless thing!"
Yun Jinxi covered her slapped cheek and looked at Liu in disbelief, her eyes full of grievance and unwillingness: "Mother, you actually hit me?"
The prime minister stood aside, his face gloomy and frightening. He shouted, "Yun Jinxi, go to the ancestral hall and kneel down to reflect on your mistakes immediately! Without my permission, you are not allowed to step out of the ancestral hall! Yan'er, follow me to the study."
Yun Jinxi burst into tears. She tightly grasped the corner of Liu's clothes and choked up, saying, "Mother, does father not want me anymore? He actually wants to drive me to that deserted ancestral hall. Why does he always favor my elder sister? I am also his biological daughter! Is it because my elder sister is the legitimate daughter? But I am not bad either! Why can't I be the second prince's principal wife?"
Liu was so angry that she was shaking all over. She raised her hand and slapped Yun Jinxi hard, shouting, "You are so shameless that you compete with your own sister for a husband! You are so shameless that you seduce men! How can our Yun family have a shame like you!" As she said this, Liu fainted from anger.
"Yan'er, the second prince is the emperor's son after all. And he was born to the queen. He is the legitimate son. Even if this matter today is brought to the emperor, I am afraid that the emperor will scold the second prince and let him go easily. Your Majesty personally granted the marriage, and to cancel the marriage is a slap in the face of Your Majesty." The prime minister said earnestly.
Yun Ruyan quickly figured out the twists and turns and laughed: "Father, I understand. I just need to be a good consort to the second prince. This happened in our residence, and in my sister's room. If the emperor investigates, I'm afraid our residence will be in trouble." Yun Ruyan pretended to be relaxed, but deep in her heart she felt an unspeakable sense of loss. She originally thought she was deeply loved, but she didn't expect that she was just a pawn.
"Yan'er, I know you feel wronged, but this is the only way for us now. Don't worry, I have already got 100,000 taels of silver from the Second Prince today. You can keep it, and when you marry into the Second Prince's mansion in the future, you can use it to take care of everything. Everything requires money, and I will fully support you and help you reach a higher position. As for that fool Jinxi, she will only bring trouble to our Prime Minister's Mansion, and you are my real pride." The Prime Minister said sincerely.
After hearing this, Yun Ruyan's eyes flashed with a touch of emotion and determination. She knew that although her father used her as a tool, it was also for the benefit of the family. She was willing to accept this reality and work hard to become an excellent second prince's consort to win more glory for the family. At the same time, she also hoped that through her own efforts, her father would see her value and no longer just regard her as a tool.
So, Yun Ruyan accepted the 100,000 taels of silver, saying that she would make good use of the money to lay a solid foundation for her future. The prime minister was pleased to see his daughter's determination. He believed that as long as Yun Ruyan could seize the opportunity, she would become an important figure in the Second Prince's mansion and bring more benefits to the prime minister's mansion.
However, Yun Ruyan always felt an indescribable pain in her heart. She didn't know if she could really forget her feelings for Yan Wuque and accept another man. But she also understood that the current situation did not allow her to hesitate or struggle any longer. She had to let go of the past and face the future bravely.
Thinking of Yun Yuxi, Yun Ruyan was even more angry. "Bitch, wait until I become the prince's consort. Then I will show you how I will deal with you." But Yun Ruyan forgot that her status was not as high as Yun Yuxi's.
