After I gave birth to the child and confirmed that it was a boy, the two older ones drowned in the water.
The emperor was so angry that he fell ill and no one mentioned the adoption again.
A year later, the emperor passed away and passed the throne to the second prince.
On the day of the coronation ceremony, the second prince walked step by step to the top of the stairs in his dragon robe, his heart pounding with excitement as he asked me to join him in accepting the worship of all the officials. Suddenly, a bolt of lightning struck him.
“Boom!”
I looked up in horror, and all I saw was purple light. Then my body went numb and I lost consciousness for a short time. When I opened my eyes again, I was back to the time when I returned to the capital, and was hated by everyone.
I was so shocked and angry that the memories in my mind made me want to faint.
Does the thunder have a grudge against me? It struck down the Queen position I had secured, and also destroyed Yi Xianyu's carriage, exposing our affair to everyone. They all looked at me with contempt and disdain.
Even my mother, Mrs. Tao, was rude to me.
By the way, her attitude towards me was not like this before. I tried to please the Shangshu's sister, Miss Yu, so that she could marry him, and I brought her together with Yun Jing.
Miss Yu fell in love with Yun Jing because she was ugly, fat, and unmarried at an older age. Because of my matchmaking, he almost lost his wife and children. Yun Jing took the initiative to apply for a transfer, and Tao's attitude towards me became worse.
My relationship with the Minister's son didn't work out either. He married his cousin and we lived in perfect harmony.
This happened a long time ago.
I was clearly not struck by lightning in my previous life, so I suspected that Yun Yuan had returned, but later I denied it.
Although she hates me, she didn't do anything extreme. If she came back from her previous life, she would definitely want to eat my flesh and tear out my tendons.
That unreliable Yi Xianyu actually doesn't plan to marry me in this life, the reason being that I have ruined his reputation. But how good can his own reputation be? It's even in tatters. I don't know where he gets the confidence to marry a good girl.
Although I had no plans to marry him again, he made me very unhappy with this.
I want to find the Second Prince and rekindle our old relationship with him.
The first thing was to steal the credit for Yun Yuan saving people in her previous life. I plotted against Yun Yuan based on my experience in my previous life and wanted to go with her to find the Second Prince, but I made a mistake and she left me alone and ran away.
I was dragged away by the refugees and spent a day worse than death.
Finally I saw the Second Prince, he was hanging upside down on a tree.
I thought saving people was easy, all I had to do was reveal the Second Prince's identity, but I forgot that if this worked, the Second Prince would have been released long ago.
As soon as I said this, I saw helplessness in the Second Prince's eyes. At this moment, I realized that I had done something wrong.
The refugees were ready to throw the jar into the air, so they cut off one of the Second Prince's arms. The Second Prince's eyes were bloodshot, and he looked at me with condemnation, as if he couldn't understand why I was so useless in this life.
But it wasn't me who saved him in his previous life. I don't know how Yun Yuan saved him. If she had told me in more detail in her previous life, I wouldn't have watched the second prince's arm being cut off in this life.
It was Yun Yuan who harmed us.
Fortunately, the guards arrived in time to save us, but the second prince's arm could not be reattached, so we could only stop the bleeding and bandage it. With the experience of our first life, we prepared to find a large force to join us.
Finally we caught up with the main force.
The Second Prince's request for a marriage from His Majesty was rejected, and I was forced to become a concubine, even lower than a lowly maid.
I thought, as long as I give birth to the baby, everything will be fine.
I secretly took Yun Yuan's luggage away, but no matter how I searched, I couldn't find the elixir I had seen in my previous life. I was a little panicked. In addition, there was a nasty nanny staring at me twelve hours a day, and I felt irritable every day.
Fortunately, the Second Prince still had feelings for me, so I didn’t suffer in the capital.
The turning point was the day Yun Yuan returned home. I was eager to get the elixir and slandered Yun Yuan for stealing, but she told me the name and efficacy of the pill. The second prince looked shocked and doubtful and hurried back home.
When I arrived, he was reading a book and questioned me whether I had slandered Yun Yuan and her three children in my previous life.
Seeing the madness hidden in his eyes, I knew I couldn't admit it.
I told him that the medicine was given by my aunt, but he didn't believe me.
Later, a light bulb went off in my head, and I remembered a piece of information I knew in my previous life, which said that there was only one pill, and there was no way Yun Yuan could have given birth to three children. Needless to say, I knew she was having an affair.
I told the Second Prince the names of Dan Hezi and his master, Taoist Xinhe. The Second Prince was shocked and confused, and temporarily dispelled his doubts about me, but a thorn was planted in his heart, and he became much colder towards me.
I heard Yun Yuan was named Princess Renhui and was granted marriage to the eldest prince. I couldn't believe it. How could she be so lucky? After losing the second prince, she could still marry the more outstanding eldest prince.
Yun Shijiu was imprisoned in the Dali Temple's death row for slandering the princess's innocence. I didn't go to see her, and she didn't die in the end. Everyone praised the prince's wife for her kindness.
Yun Shijiu was kicked out of the Wenchang Earl's Mansion as soon as she was released from the death row. Even the brothel didn't dare to accept people who offended the royal family. A month later, I saw her. She was begging on the street with a group of beggars, her eyes dull and lifeless.
I kicked over her bowl.
During the Mid-Autumn Festival, the Second Prince took me to a palace banquet, but the Imperial Concubine told him about my affair with Yi Xianyu before my rebirth. The Second Prince was extremely shocked at the time, with disappointment and anger intertwined in his eyes, and finally turned into coldness and ruthlessness.
I fainted and when I woke up I found myself locked up in a dilapidated courtyard with no one to serve me. Except for the food and drink that people brought me, I had to take care of everything myself.
I hadn't seen the Second Prince for several days, and I was feeling extremely panicked.
The person I want to hold on to most after my rebirth is the Second Prince. If he abandons me, I won't be able to go back to the Wenchang Marquis' Mansion. Am I going to be like Yun Shijiu, begging on the streets during the day and staying in temples with beggars at night, allowing them to bully me?
