"Miss, I noticed that Miss Wanyu's eyes lit up when she mentioned the Eastern Palace."

Qiao Yun felt that her efforts over the past few days had finally paid off, and she refused to let anyone who wanted to cause trouble for her young lady.

Let her go and cause trouble for Xu Wanqing.

"You have made an invaluable contribution to this matter. When it is accomplished, I will reward you handsomely."

Qiao Yun smiled awkwardly, "Miss, I'm here to help you solve your problems, isn't that my duty? How can I ask you to reward me?"

"As you should. You must be so irritated facing her every day. Just for this, I should give you a reward to relieve your fatigue."

Qiao Yun quickly responded with a smile, "Miss, you are so kind to me."

Xu Wanyan chuckled. In fact, she could also let Xu Wanyu enter Prince Chen's Mansion. Presumably, she would be killed by the disciplinary nanny of Prince Chen's Mansion in no time.

However, she didn't want to let her get away with it so easily. Since Xu Wanyu was so greedy for wealth, she would let her have a good fight with Xu Wanqing and compete for it!

"Cousin Wanyan, I'm here."

Xu Wanyan's good mood disappeared instantly when she heard this.

"Cousin Wanyu"

Xu Wanyu happily came to Xu Wanyan and said, "Sister, your life is too boring. I heard in Linzhou that women in the capital have to attend various banquets from time to time. Why..."

Xu Wanyan glanced at her coldly, "Cousin, you don't know that our Xu family has long lost its former glory. Because of my sister, the Xu family has fallen into decline."

Hearing this, Xu Wanyu was stunned, "What's going on?"

She heard that her grandfather was the former Grand Tutor, and he was no ordinary person.

Xu Wanyan sighed and told her everything Xu Wanqing had done.

Of course, there are also a lot of exaggerations.

After hearing this, Xu Wanyu's eyes were full of ferocity. "This Xu Wanqing has gone too far. She actually did something so immoral. If she were in our village, she would be dragged into the pond and drowned."

Xu Wanyan nodded helplessly, "It's because my father loves her so much."

"Uncle San is so foolish! How could he want a woman like this? It's simply a disgrace to our Xu family."

The more Xu Wanyu thought about it, the angrier she became. She was wondering why the Xu family had been so deserted these days. It turned out that it was all Xu Wanqing's fault.

"Third Uncle is really something. He destroyed the entire Xu family for her."

Hearing this, Xu Wanyan quickly covered her mouth.

"Cousin, be careful with your words. Xu Wanqing is no longer the same Xu Wanqing as before."

Xu Wanyu immediately perked up, "What do you mean?"

Qiao Yun looked at her like a nagging woman and immediately showed contempt on her face.

Then he felt something was wrong and hurried out to do his work.

"Cousin, I didn't want to tell anyone about this, but since you and I get along so well and I treat you as my own sister, I wanted to tell you."

Xu Wanyu nodded vigorously. "Yes, yes, you are right. Judging from the way Aunt Zhao is acting, I'm afraid she has often treated you harshly in the past."

Xu Wanyan nodded sadly, "Cousin, you're right."

"However, Xu Wanqing is no longer someone we can afford to offend. I have to swallow the bitterness myself."

Xu Wanyu curled her lips. "Wanyan, you're exaggerating. I heard that Xu Wanqing just married an ordinary man. Even if our Xu family is in decline, it's still much better off than that ordinary family."

She didn't believe Xu Wanyan's statement at all. She thought Xu Wanyan was used to being bullied by the mother and daughter and didn't dare to resist at all, so she said such things.

"Cousin, you don't know that Xu Wanqing didn't marry Lu Mingxuan at all."

"What?" Xu Wanyu was so surprised that she almost jumped up.

"How is that possible?"

Xu Wan quickly pulled her to sit down, "Cousin, please speak softly. No one knows about this. It would be bad if others heard it."

When Xu Wanyu heard this, she quickly sat down, but she still didn't believe it.

"Everyone in this family knows that she married Lu Mingxuan. Now you say no, I'm afraid you're lying to me."

Xu Wanyan sighed, "I really didn't lie to you. Father and grandfather both knew about it. After she got married, Xu Wanqing disappeared."

"Missing? Was he hidden by the Lu family?"

Xu Wanyan shook her head and said, "The Lu family came to visit several times, and later, I learned that they actually used a maid to replace Xu Wanqing to marry into the Lu family."

"Ah? So wicked? Where did Xu Wanqing go?"

Xu Wanyan glanced at her and uttered two words lightly, "Eastern Palace."

"What?"

Now, Xu Wanyu could no longer remain calm.

"Eastern Palace? How could she possibly go to the Eastern Palace?"

She didn't believe it. How could a woman like that enter the East Palace?

"Did she go to the East Palace to be a maid?"

This is the only possibility.

Xu Wanyan shook her head. "You're wrong. She's not going to be a palace maid. She's going to be the prince's woman."

"impossible!"

Xu Wanyu raised her voice and kept shaking her head.

"How could the prince possibly fall for a woman like her? You're talking nonsense. What you said is definitely not true."

Xu Wanyan gave her a cold look and said, "Cousin, when have you ever seen me tell a lie?"

"Have you forgotten what Aunt Zhao said the day you first arrived?"

"She, what did she say?"

Xu Wanyu was uneasy at the moment, she couldn't accept what Xu Wanyan said.

"She said she had good news to share with her father because of your arrival, so she stopped talking."

Xu Wanyu frowned and tried hard to recall what happened that day.

After a moment, she nodded and said, "What you said seems to be true. She did say that."

Suddenly, her face turned red, not sure if it was because of excitement or anger.

"Why? Why can someone like Xu Wanqing be the prince's woman?"

She was not convinced, Xu Wanqing was far worse than her.

After all, she was a pure and innocent girl, but Xu Wanqing was just a fallen woman.

Suddenly, her eyes lit up. If Xu Wanqing could go, she could too, right?

Looking at the expression on Xu Wanyu's face, Xu Wanyan knew what she was thinking and couldn't help but feel secretly happy.

"Wanyan, she, how did she go?"

Xu Wanyan shook her head in confusion. "I don't know either. I guess she bumped into the prince by chance and then got in touch with him."

Xu Wanyu nodded, she also thought this method was feasible.

"Then, then..."

Looking at Xu Wanyan, Xu Wanyu didn't know whether she should express her thoughts.

In the Xu family, only Xu Wanyan is close to her at the moment.

With Xu Wanyan's help, things should be better.

But, she doesn't seem very smart, can we help her?

Xu Wanyu was very annoyed. Being the prince's woman was definitely better than being the prince's concubine.

The prince is the future king of a country. If she becomes the prince's woman, she may become a concubine or even a queen in the future.

Thinking of this, Xu Wanyu secretly made up her mind to enter the Eastern Palace.
