But Zhu Xianyue was the legal wife, and Zhu Baoning was the concubine.

In order to show respect to Zhu Xianyue, Zhu Baoning called her "sister".

Because she didn't know the complete plot, Zhu Xianyue was not sure whether Zhu Baoning was sincere or not at the moment.

"Thank you, sister."

But she appreciated it.

It is also obvious that

When she said the word "sister", Zhu Baoning's body stiffened slightly.

Zhu Xianyue narrowed her eyes slightly, and had a rough idea in her mind.

…

The concubine marries during the day, and the wife marries at dusk.

Therefore, Qi Chao’s wedding is also called "hunli".

When Zhu Xianyue was preparing to get married, Zhu Baoning had already gone to the Marquis' Mansion in advance.

Her husband Duan Junyao did not come to greet her.

Her biological mother said, "You are marrying into the prince, which is already a high position. If he doesn't come to greet you, you shouldn't feel resentful."

Her biological father echoed: "After you get married, you should regard your husband as your heaven, be filial to your parents-in-law, and don't bring shame to the Zhu family."

Zhu Xianyue nodded.

When sending her out, Mrs. Zhu shed a few tears.

But these tears seemed to be squeezed out forcefully.

Zhu Xianyue, who was sitting in the sedan chair, heard a slight sobbing sound.

I lifted the curtain slightly and saw a skinny little maid.

"...Rong'er?"

Rong'er is the youngest child of Zhu Xianyue's adoptive parents.

Because she was a girl, her adoptive parents in the countryside did not pay much attention to her.

Rong'er grew up following her elder sister Zhu Xianyue.

After her adoptive parents were put in jail, Rong'er followed Zhu Xianyue back to the Zhu Mansion.

Her biological parents made her Zhu Xianyue's maid.

She also said that Zhu Xianyue would be the mistress in the future, and being her maid would be better than being a maid to Rong'er's biological sister Zhu Baoning.

"Why are you crying?"

Zhu Xianyue asked her.

"Eldest sister... no... Madam, I know I was wrong. I shouldn't cry on such a beautiful day..."

Rong'er really didn't mean it.

But I can't help it.

Thinking that she was just a fourteen-year-old child who grew up with the original owner and had no ulterior motives, and perhaps because she really couldn't bear to leave the original owner, Zhu Xianyue felt a little reluctant.

"I will always be your sister."

She said.

This one sentence made Rong'er cry even more.

She bit her lips tightly with her teeth.

After a while, he finally made a decision.

He wanted to tell Zhu Xianyue what he had "eavesdropped".

"Madam, I heard you tell my elder sister, Zhu Baoning, the concubine of the Marquis of Pingcheng... that after you give birth to the child, you should secretly kill her and then have the prince help Zhu Baoning ascend to the throne!"

Rong'er gnashed her teeth in anger.

Although Zhu Baoning is her biological sister, it was Zhu Xianyue who took care of her since she was a child!

She grew up on Zhu Xianyue's back!

Naturally, she couldn't bear to part with Zhu Xianyue!

Mrs. Zhu is so cruel that she can even kill her own daughter. She will definitely not let her life go.

Zhu Xianyue narrowed her phoenix eyes slightly.

Thinking of the contemptuous looks everyone in the Zhu Mansion gave her, she had an idea in her mind -

Although she is the real daughter of the Zhu family, she grew up in the countryside.

She is illiterate, timid, but has a seductive appearance that makes people feel disgusted.

The noble ladies of the Qi Dynasty started to bind their chests from the age of nine, so most of them had flat chests and were proud of them.

In their view, only low-ranking slaves and prostitutes had puffy breasts.

Zhu Xianyue will bring shame to the Zhu family.

Although Zhu Baoning's appearance was not as good as Zhu Xianyue's and she was not of Zhu family blood, she was raised in the Zhu family and was influenced by female teachers and nannies since childhood. She was eloquent and had the demeanor of a mistress.
