She completely ignored the gifts that General Qin sent her every once in a while, and prepared the same gifts for Danruo as he did for her.
Seeing her bad attitude, Dan Ruo shook his head and sighed:
"Sis, you still have time to think about my future, so it seems you are not hungry anymore. I will take the food back first and see how long your hunger strike can last.
However, I heard that the Madam has gone to the Ningguo Marquis' Mansion this afternoon. I'm afraid that my sister won't be able to marry the prince as she wishes, so I have to be the only one to marry him."
The wife of the Marquis of Ningguo was Du's sister-in-law and also the empress dowager's sworn sister. In the previous life, it was the wife of the Marquis of Ningguo who went to meet the empress dowager and asked for Qin Danqing to enter the palace.

"Then please help me deliver a letter to the wife of the Duke of Anguo. I believe that the wife of the Duke of Anguo will definitely choose me, the legitimate daughter, over you, the illegitimate daughter.
Otherwise I will yell at you right now and tell you you are trying to murder me, and I will punish you."
After saying that, she placed the hairpin against her neck.
Dan Ruo pretended to be threatened and agreed. She took Qin Danqing's personal maid out of the house, and the rest was their business.
