With Liu Hui's perspective, Lin Xiaoman knew very well the reason for the imperial decree granting the marriage.
Yun Wenyao has always loved his cousin. When he learned that Chen Shuyi was going to marry someone else, he was heartbroken. However, as a son-in-law, he also knew that there was no possibility for the two of them to be together anymore.
His career was ruined, and the woman he loved was about to marry someone else. Yun Wenyao felt only hatred in his heart, but what could he do? The emperor and his subjects had different opinions!
A dumb person cannot express his pain even when eating coptis chinensis.
Yun Wen Yao could only drink to drown his sorrows, and he felt extremely depressed and decadent.
Liu Hui was originally very happy that her love rival was getting married, but when she saw Yun Wenyao being so depressed because of Chen Shuyi, she felt extremely distressed.
Liu Hui was angry and distressed, but after calming down, she came up with an idea.
After all, she grew up in the palace. Although she is love-brained, Liu Hui is also well aware of the palace fighting.
As the saying goes, what you can't get is always the best. If Chen Shuyi married someone else, she would become the white moonlight in Yun Wenyao's heart, and he would never be able to compare to her in his entire life.
Only if Yun Wen Yao gets his sweetheart will she have the possibility of replacing her.
With comparison, you will know who is better!
So, bearing the heartache of having to share her husband with another woman, Liu Hui went to ask for an imperial decree to grant the marriage.
All I can say is that Chen Shuyi is extremely unlucky.
Not only Chen Shuyi, but the entire Marquis' Mansion was angry about this imperial edict!
This is really bullying!
Not only did they steal the marriage, but now they want to make the daughter of the Marquisate a concubine!
Marquis Wu Ding entered the palace immediately. Although Emperor De Sheng was in the wrong, as the emperor, his words were final and the imperial decree had been issued, so there was no possibility of taking it back!
Disobeying the order and wanting to rebel?
Marquis Wu Ding returned empty-handed, and this was a fact that was set in stone and could not be changed.
Chen Shuyi really hated it. He stole her fiancé and now wanted to make her a concubine. It was too much to treat her like this!
In the Dahui Dynasty, apart from the royal concubines, concubines were playthings, people who were not worthy of being on the public stage, and slaves who could be beaten, killed, and sold at will by the mistress!
Only poor people, prostitutes, and illegitimate daughters of low status and unfavored women would become concubines.
A concubine has no status, which is equivalent to selling herself to her master's maid.
What's more, Yun Wen Yao is a son-in-law of the emperor, and sons-in-law of the emperor are not allowed to enter the official career, so Yun Wen Yao will be a commoner with the title of son-in-law of the emperor in his entire life.
The princess's child is still a royal heir, so he can't be bad in any way.
If she becomes Yun Wen Yao's concubine, her children in the future will be the lowest class of untouchables!
She is the legitimate daughter of a marquis, why should she be treated so badly!
Chen Shuyi was so angry that she lay in bed for several days before she recovered. She wished she could just die.
But there was no other way. If she sought death, it would be a blatant disobedience to the imperial decree.
Disobeying the imperial order is a serious crime punishable by the execution of nine generations of the family. In order not to implicate the Marquis's Mansion, Chen Shuyi could only enter the Prince Consort's Mansion through the side door in a sedan chair.
After entering the Prince Consort's Mansion and seeing Yun Wenyao again, Chen Shuyi did not feel happy at all, but only felt hopeless.
Although Yun Wenyao tried his best to swear that he would protect her, Chen Shuyi didn't believe it at all. The prince consort himself depended on the princess for his survival, and she was just a concubine. The princess could find any reason to beat her to death, or even humiliate her and force her to accompany guests!
Serving a king is like serving a tiger, and the same is true for serving a princess.
Chen Shuyi was fully prepared to die. As the legitimate daughter of the Marquisate, she would never bring shame to the Marquisate. She had already entered the Prince Consort's residence. Even if she died of illness, it would not be considered as disobeying the emperor's order. Dying in the Prince Consort's residence would not implicate the Marquisate.
Originally, she had a wonderful life. Even though Yun Wenyao became the prince consort, Chen Shuyi just felt that she had suffered a great injustice and had to swallow her bitterness. But now, she hates, she hates the imperial power!
Just because Liu Hui is a princess!
Because she is a princess!
The word "imperial power" oppresses people to death!
Wanting to die but feeling unwilling to accept it, Chen Shuyi was depressed and gloomy all day long. Yun Wenyao felt guilty, distressed and self-blaming, and he wished he could take out his heart to compensate her.
But in Liu Hui's eyes, these were Chen Shuyi's tactics to win favor. By pretending to be weak, she kept Yun Wenyao in her yard. Then, she acted as if she had suffered a great injustice, trying to sow discord between her and Yun Wenyao. This bitch was very clever! She was not a pushover!
After reviewing Liu Hui's information, Lin Xiaoman determined that Chen Shuyi had died of depression in her first life, in the 14th year of the Yuanfeng era, withering away at the tender age of a flower. It was Chen Shuyi's death that ignited Yun Wenyao's hatred for Liu Hui to a new level, ultimately leading him to persuade his father, the Grand Tutor, to help the Seventh Prince.
In this second life, less than a month after Chen Shuyi entered the mansion, Liu Hui and Yun Wenyao divorced.
Without the shadow of Liu Hui's death hanging over her head, Chen Shuyi could not help but breathe a sigh of relief. But it still felt unfair. She was already Yun Wenyao's concubine, and 'concubines cannot be wives' was the law of Dahui. She would be a concubine of a lower rank for the rest of her life.
At the beginning, Yun Wen Yao treated her well in many ways and swore to heaven and earth that even if she became his concubine, he, Yun Wen Yao, would never marry again!
Yun Wenyao swore: We will be together for the rest of our lives.
With Yun Wen Yao's assurance, although she still felt aggrieved, Chen Shuyi gradually let it go. She was already a concubine, but with her cousin's sincere treatment, and she was the only one in the entire mansion, she could also be considered the mistress.
Just like that, after a few years of harmonious days, Chen Shuyi noticed something unusual. As the legitimate daughter of a noble family, Chen Shuyi was definitely a person with a delicate mind, not to mention that women's intuition was always very accurate.
