Chapter 133 Little White Rabbit was brainwashed by Prince Long

Looking at the beautiful scenery reflected on the lake surface in front of him, which was rippling with the wind and appearing and disappearing from time to time, Tang Yuli seemed to see his own state of mind.

She had never spoken about this to anyone, but in this situation, at this moment, facing Su Rui, she felt that perhaps, she could talk to her.

Su Rui was in no hurry to ask, but just waited for her.

She hesitated for a long time before she continued, struggling, "I don't know if I'm willing to get married, but it seems that it doesn't matter whether I'm willing or not, so I... I don't think about this question most of the time."

"Ever since I was old enough to understand, everyone has told me that I'm the second daughter of the Tang family, a distinguished lady of Prince Long's palace. I have to be extremely careful with my words and actions, not to bring shame to the Tang family, nor to allow anyone to speculate about me."

"So, I can't show my preferences. I can't eat the food I like in public, and I can't make my favorite fabric into outerwear to wear out. Maybe I've gotten used to it, and over time, I no longer know what love is."

"Marriages are always decided by the family, so they arranged for me to go to Beijing to marry Mr. Yunji, and I came to Beijing."

"I originally thought I could accept it. When I first met Mr. Yunji, I also felt that he was divinely handsome. I thought I could do it, so I listened to my cousin and looked for opportunities to contact him. But when I saw you, Concubine Su, at the Fahua Temple, I felt lost but also had another emotion."

"I can't explain it, but I'm not sad about it, nor do I resent you. On the contrary, I envy you."

"You know what you want, and you go straight for it, but I... don't know what I want."

"But when you married Mr. Yunji, I actually breathed a sigh of relief. I knew then that I didn't love Mr. Yunji, and perhaps I didn't want to marry him, but... I had no choice."

After listening to what Tang Yuli said, Su Rui also had mixed feelings.

I originally thought that the man was heartless and I was willing, so if Tang Yuli could be more proactive and really not force herself on him, it would probably work out.

As a result, the man is heartless and the concubine has no interest in him.

This is a difficult matter.

Even if Prince Long's Mansion wanted to force someone to drink water, they might resort to some tricks if they were pushed into a corner.

But although Tang Yuli said that she had no say in the matter, she was stubborn underneath her gentle nature. If she was really asked to do those things, she would never do them. In fact, in her current trapped situation, she would even commit suicide.

Su Rui is not a person who is easygoing, nor does she have the intention of being a pushover.

But Tang Yuli had saved her after all, and also kept her mother's clothes. Su Rui didn't want such a little white rabbit to be forced to die.

"I see. It seems we were being too sentimental." Su Rui shrugged and said indifferently, "If you don't like her and don't want to, then don't marry her."

It's easier said than done.

But Tang Yuli just smiled bitterly and did not respond.

Su Rui suddenly came closer, face to face. Such a close distance made Tang Yuli instinctively want to step back, but Su Rui grabbed her hand and pulled her back.

Looking directly into her eyes, Su Rui said, "Don't be afraid. I won't eat you, and neither will anyone else. You are the only daughter of General Tang. Your father has neither a second wife nor an illegitimate child. You, the Second Miss Tang, can't just walk around like a tyrant in Shengjing City, but you can also stand tall on the top of the mountain. No one can force you to do something you don't want to do, not even Prince Long."

She was indeed her father's only daughter. Her mother had passed away ten years earlier, and her father had never remarried, remaining stationed in Mobei.

But after not seeing her for ten years, Tang Yuli had forgotten her father's face. She only remembered that her father loved her very much when she was a child. He would let her ride on his neck wherever he went and be his big horse.

But she had no idea how her father felt about her after ten years. Perhaps his feelings had already faded.

Even though he wrote to me every month, they were just a few words and ordinary greetings.

and……

"I am a member of the Tang family, supported by Prince Long's Mansion, and I should be the Tang family..."

"Who told you that bullshit?" Su Rui interrupted. Looking at Tang Yuli, she understood: this little white rabbit had been brainwashed by Prince Long. "You were raised by your parents. Your father guarded Mobei and didn't send his salary to the family? Your mother didn't bring a dowry when you married? Your second wife's shop and land didn't make any money? Aren't these used to support you? This is all your family's, your own things. What does Prince Long have to do with it?"

Su Rui's words left Tang Yuli stunned.

She had never heard such remarks.

From childhood to adulthood, everyone told her that the Tang family was one, without distinction between you and me.

There is no distinction between the first and second wives, they are all descendants of Prince Long.

When one prospers, all prosper; when one suffers, all suffer.

Therefore, she always believed that she was supported by the Tang family and should dedicate everything to the Tang family. Even if it was not what she wanted, voluntary, or even disgusting, she had to sacrifice herself for the Tang family and her family.

But now after hearing what Su Rui said, it seemed that there was some truth to it.

"But if I don't want to, my uncle's years of planning will be in vain. If it were you, what would you do with the Yong'an Marquis Mansion?"

Su Rui laughed out loud.

"Do I need to change it? Can't you see at a glance how I am doing with the Yong'an Marquis Mansion?"

yes.

Su Rui didn't care about the Yong'an Marquis Mansion at all.

She is she, and the Yong'an Marquis Mansion is the Yong'an Marquis Mansion.

Ever since she came back, the Yong'an Marquis Mansion has been on a downward spiral, and they only breathed a sigh of relief after reconciling with her.

But… “No, the Yong’an Marquis’ Mansion feels guilty towards you, but the Long Prince’s Mansion treats me differently.”

If Prince Long's Mansion treated her the same way as Yong'an Marquis' Mansion treated Su Rui, perhaps she wouldn't have to worry so much. Unfortunately, that's not the case.

"What's the difference? When your uncle was planning everything, did he ask if you were willing to be a pawn in this plan? Besides, if Prince Long's Mansion wants to join forces with Yunji, marriage may not be the only way to go."

Although the marriage is a deeper connection, it is also a mixed blessing. If Prince Long really loves his niece Tang Yuli, how could he not see her pain? However, like Su Rui, they are all tools. Fortunately, Tang Yuli has a father who loves her so much that he doesn't expose those naked things to her, but instead brainwashes her.

Faced with all that Su Rui had revealed, Tang Yuli didn't know how to identify or accept it for a moment.

This is completely contrary to what I thought before.

But it made sense. In fact, her heart was vaguely inclined towards it, but her reason told her that it was wrong.

It was like a battle between heaven and man, pulling back and forth in her body, causing her pain.

"You don't have to figure out right or wrong right now. Whichever side you're on is right. Just follow your heart. Life only comes once, so your own happiness comes first." Su Rui patted Tang Yuli's shoulder, pulled out a can from his sleeve pocket, and said slyly, "Take your time to think about it. Now, help me first."
