Chapter 1 Sisters Marry
When Xie Yao heard that her younger sister had been on a hunger strike for three days, refused to marry the prince, and insisted on marrying the poor scholar Song Wenbo, she knew that she had also been reborn.
In the previous life, her younger sister Xie Yujiao married the prince, but the prince was weak and died after a few years. Xie Yujiao had no children, so she could only live out the rest of her life in seclusion.
Thanks to her divine body of good fertility, she gave birth to twins, a boy and a girl, just one year after marrying Song Wenbo. She was promoted to the wife of the Prime Minister and received Song Wenbo's promise to be with her for the rest of her life.
Xie Yujiao was jealous of her good luck and tried to seduce Song Wenbo secretly but failed. She then stabbed her in the heart with a dagger and took Xie Yao's life.
But Xie Yujiao didn't know that the Song family was the real hell!
Open your eyes again...
Xie Yao vaguely heard Xie Yujiao's voice.
"Father, mother, my sister is the eldest daughter. She should marry the prince and enjoy all the wealth and glory."
"Let me marry into the Song family in my sister's place!" Xie Yujiao glanced at Xie Yao, with a hint of resentment in her eyes.
When Xie Yao gets married, she will find out that this marriage, which the Xie family thought was a great bargain, was actually arranged at random because the prince is unpopular!
And the prince... can't even be considered a human being! A useless thing that can't even be considered a man, and Xie Yao, such a worthless person, are a perfect match.
In this life, the devoted husband and the imperial decree of the Prime Minister’s wife… are all hers.
Xie Yao is destined to be stepped on by her!
"How can that be possible?" Father Xie frowned.
Mrs. Xie said, "The marriage has already been agreed upon. How can you change it now?" She glanced at Xie Yao with a warning look.
"I don't care!" Xie Yujiao was spoiled since she was a child. She always spoke without restraint, "If I can't marry Song Wenbo, I will die in front of you!"
Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie were shocked and immediately coaxed Xie Yujiao like a sweetheart.
Xie Yao sat on the side and watched coldly, wanting only to sneer in her heart.
Xie Yujiao only saw her glory as the wife of the Prime Minister, but didn't know how hard it was for her in secret. Song Wenbo had been having an affair with someone long ago, and every night he ordered her to be a human candlestick when they made love, and he would whip and beat her at any time. She lived a life in the Song family worse than that of an ox or a horse!
That lifelong partnership was not promised to her at all. That person was of extraordinary status, and she was just a shield from beginning to end!
If Song Wenbo had not deliberately indulged her, how could a weak woman like Xie Yujiao have taken her life in the Song family?
Compared to entering the Song family's lair...she would rather guard the ancient Buddha with green lamps.
Since Xie Yujiao wanted such a "good marriage", she was not only willing to give it to him with both hands, but also wanted to erect a longevity archway for Xie Yujiao!
He is really a good person.
Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie said all the nice things, but Xie Yujiao just said, "I don't care, I just want to marry Song Wenbo!"
Mrs. Xie was furious. She caught a glimpse of Xie Yao and immediately said, "Jiaojiao, is there anyone who has been gossiping in your ear? Don't be afraid. No matter who it is, your father and I will take care of it for you..."
Every word and sentence Mrs. Xie said hinted that it was Xie Yao who did it.
Father Xie listened, and his suspicious eyes fell on Xie Yao, "Xie Yao, were you the one who instigated Jiaojiao?"
Mrs. Xie raised her hand to wipe away the non-existent tears, and leaned against Father Xie softly, "Other things are fine, but Jiaojiao has been weak since she was a child. If she really marries into the Song family, I'm afraid..."
"Miss, please just be considerate of your sister and let her get married, okay?"
Father Xie patted the back of Madam Xie's hand in a soothing manner, and then looked at Xie Yao with disgust in his eyes, "Why give in? I was the one who arranged the two marriages! Xie Yao, you are so scheming at such a young age. How can someone with your character dream of marrying the prince?"
Xie Yao knew that she would have no relatives in this world since the day her mother passed away.
Hearing this, there was no ripple in my heart.
"Are you blind or deaf? It's Xie Yujiao who wants to change her marriage." Xie Yao was blunt and sarcastic.
What?
Mr. Xie and Mrs. Xie were both stunned. They didn't expect that Xie Yao, who was usually well-behaved, would suddenly be so rude.
Xie's father was furious and immediately raised his hand to teach Xie Yao a lesson.
Xie Yao was prepared. She quickly stepped back as soon as she said that, counting down silently in her heart: three, two, one.
"Master!" the housekeeper's excited voice came, "A Xu Ma has come to the palace."
The Emperor himself had decided that the daughter of the Xie family would be the Crown Princess, and the wedding would be in three days. At about this time in the previous life, Aunt Xu came to the palace to teach etiquette.
Mr. Xie paused with his raised hand, then reluctantly lowered it, straightened his clothes, and led the Xie family out to greet the guests to show their respect.
Xie Yujiao snorted and followed reluctantly.
Xie Yao glanced at her, curled the corners of her lips slightly, and whispered to the maid beside her: "It seems that the second sister's plan will fail."
"I'm afraid there is no other way except to refuse the marriage with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in front of Madam Xu in the palace."
Xie Yao caught a glimpse of the gleam in Xie Yujiao's eyes, and then she looked away.
Father Xie and Madam Xie had already started greeting Madam Xu and soon treated her as a guest of honor.
Aunt Xu glanced at Xie Yao and Xie Yujiao, and asked with a smile, "Which one will be the future Crown Princess?"
Mrs. Xie was about to speak when Xie Yujiao pointed at Xie Yao and said, "It's her!"
Mrs. Xie's face changed drastically, and she forced a smile, "Jiaojiao, what nonsense are you talking about? It's obviously you..."
Xie Yujiao spoke again in a stern voice, "Mother, I don't want to marry the prince! If you force me again, I will--"
Bang!
Madam Xie slapped Xie Yujiao in the face, her face livid, "Shut up! Are you crazy?"
Despising the prince in front of Aunt Xu in the palace, do you think your life is too long?
When had Xie Yujiao ever suffered such an injustice? She immediately covered her face and ran out.
Nanny Xu's face was already livid. She looked at Madam Xie meaningfully and said, "Madam Xie has raised a good daughter."
Madam Xie's legs went limp and she almost fell to her knees, "Madam Xu, my daughter..."
Nanny Xu raised her hand to signal Madam Xie not to say anything more, and then turned to look at Xie Yao, sizing her up.
Xie Yao was wearing a light green, half-worn skirt. She was slightly plump and had fair skin. At the moment, she was sitting obediently with her eyes lowered, which made people feel good about her.
"Is this the eldest lady?"
Xie Yao was helped to stand up by the maid, and bowed gracefully, her voice soft and beautiful, "Xie Yao pays respects to Madam Xu."
"Miss, are you willing to marry the Crown Prince?" Nanny Xu asked in a dignified voice.
Father Xie was anxious, "Madam Xu, she..."
"Thank you, sir." Nanny Xu said coldly, "I'm talking to the eldest lady."
Xie Yao slowly raised her eyes with a smile on her face, "Xie Yao is willing."
Father Xie breathed a sigh of relief. Although the prince was not favored, he was of noble status and position after all, and he represented the face of the royal family.
If both daughters of the Xie family are unwilling to marry the prince and disobey the imperial decree... then the Xie family will no longer exist.
"Why?" Nanny Xu asked.
Xie Yao said calmly: "First, it is the order of His Majesty, and Xie Yao dare not disobey."
"Secondly..." She lowered her eyes slightly, her cheeks flushed slightly, "Yaoyao also heard in her boudoir that His Royal Highness wrote poems at the age of five and fu at the age of seven. He is extremely talented...Yaoyao admires him very much."
Xie Yao knew that the person who came today was Nanny Xu, the wet nurse of the prince, who was very close to the prince.
Of course she has to perform well!
