Chapter 136: The Vicious Eldest Daughter (1)
# The Vicious Eldest Daughter
*
"Sisi, Prince Xi is the Emperor's younger brother, second only to the Emperor. If you marry him, you will be Prince Xi's wife. What do you have to be unwilling to do?" A woman with exquisite makeup and a noble demeanor said to Chu Sisi, who was kneeling on the ground. Her words were all for Chu Sisi's good, but in reality, she did not give Chu Sisi any choice.
"Your mother is in poor health, and your half-brother is about to start school, right? If you don't go, have you thought about what the consequences will be?"
Chu Sisi, kneeling on the ground, was thin, but her pretty face was full of humiliation and anger. She was being forced to marry Prince Xi, even though the one she was betrothed to was Chu Huang, the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family. Everyone in Mingzhou knew that Chu Huang was the future Princess Xi. Unfortunately, Prince Xi, Gu Xi, had been seriously injured on the battlefield recently, and the imperial physician said he would not live for more than three years. Prince Xi was extremely handsome and skilled in both literature and martial arts. Chu Huang had always been proud to be Prince Xi's wife, but unfortunately, Prince Xi was disfigured on the battlefield and had to wear a mask to avoid showing his face.
With his face gone and his life hanging by a thread, the Emperor had also taken back his military power, ostensibly to allow him to recuperate, and bestowed upon him countless rare treasures. However, everyone knew that Prince Xi was about to lose power, and the position of Princess Xi had become a hot potato. Naturally, Chu Huang was unwilling to marry Gu Xi, this short-lived man, and Madam Chu was also unwilling for her precious daughter to marry him. But in order to appease Gu Xi, the Emperor demanded that the Ministry of Rites fulfill the marriage agreement.
She was an unfavored concubine's daughter in the Minister's mansion. Her mother was just a laundry maid who was taken in by Minister Chu Feng because of her beauty. A few years ago, Madam Chu discovered them and brought them into the mansion. Madam Chu, Liu Mingyue, was the Empress Dowager's niece. Chu Feng dared not disobey his wife, so the whole family was banished to the most remote courtyard.
They were starving and cold, and were mistreated by the servants. Her mother's health gradually deteriorated, and her younger brother was born weak because he was malnourished while in his mother's womb. The doctor predicted that he would not live past twenty.
Only when it came time to fulfill the marriage contract did they remember her, the neglected illegitimate daughter.
On what grounds?
"Besides, given your status, you could only become someone's concubine in the future. To be able to become Prince Xi's principal wife is a blessing you've accumulated over eight lifetimes. What do you have to be dissatisfied with?"
"If you're not willing, you'd better think carefully about the lives of your mother and brother."
Just as Wen Wan ran over, she heard this threatening remark, full of villainous undertones, "Mother."
The moment Madam Chu saw her daughter, the harshness on her face vanished. Adopting the demeanor of a loving mother, she touched her daughter's sweaty face and asked, "Why is Ah Huang here? Why did you run so fast? Are you tired?"
Wen Yan: "..."
My goodness, isn't this fine? Why do you have to be the villain? Looking at the kneeling female lead, Chu Sisi, her eyes were practically venomous. Do you know who you're bullying? That's the male lead's wife.
"Mother, why did you make my sister kneel on the ground? She's frail; what if she gets hurt kneeling like that?" Madam Chu reached out and pulled Chu Sisi up. Although she was unhappy, she didn't say anything.
"Does Mother want my younger sister to marry Gu Xi in place of me?" Wen Wan continued, "If my younger sister passes away due to her frail health, Prince Xi might blame our Ministry of Rites. You must take good care of her from now on."
Give the male lead a healthy and beautiful princess, hoping it will make him happier and that after he becomes emperor, he will give her a way out. Even if he doesn't, at least let her die easily.
"Alright, my Ah Huang is kind-hearted." She glanced at Chu Sisi on the ground. "Go down, and you'd better think things through as soon as possible."
After Chu Sisi left, Wen Wan quickly found an excuse to leave as well. Her maid, Xiao Taozi, chased after her, saying, "Miss, why did you run so fast? You scared me to death!"
"I'm fine. I just came to talk to you about something. I have something I need you to do."
"What's up?"
"Go find a doctor to take a look at Aunt Xin."
Little Peach was a little surprised. Didn't Miss always hate Aunt Xin and her daughter the most? Why would she suddenly want to call a doctor for her?
"Think about it, if Aunt Xin dies, Chu Sisi probably won't be willing to marry in her place. I don't want to marry into the Prince Xi's mansion."
"Yes, Miss."
Returning to the original courtyard, it was the most luxurious courtyard in the entire Minister's Mansion.
There are more than a dozen servants who attend to him every day.
Wen Wan called all the servants out before she began to receive the plot of this world.
This book is set in an alternate history, where the world is divided into nine provinces, which are also nine countries. The current location is in the territory of Mingzhou.
The male protagonist, Gu Xi, is the younger brother of Emperor Gu Qi of Mingzhou. He is second only to the emperor and holds a position of great power. The two are thirteen years apart in age. The male protagonist is currently twenty-nine years old, but he has no wives or concubines. His only fiancée, Chu Huang, is the legitimate daughter of the Minister's family, and she was chosen by the previous emperor. In fact, this setting is very unrealistic. However, it is a Mary Sue novel, so the male protagonist naturally has to be pure in heart and mind while waiting for the arrival of the female protagonist who is his true love.
The female protagonist, Chu Sisi, is an illegitimate daughter of the Prime Minister's family. She is disliked by Madam Chu and is mistreated and bullied by the servants of the Prime Minister's family. Her mother also died of illness, her younger brother is mentally challenged and weak, and she is forced to marry in place of her brother. It can be said that she has a standard female protagonist's counterattack script.
On her wedding day, her mother passed away, and she was forced to marry into the Prince Xi's mansion in place of Chu Huang. She thought she was stepping into hell, but unexpectedly, she was saved from the brink of death. By chance, she made a contract with the jade pendant her mother gave her. The jade pendant contained a spiritual spring space. With the help of this spiritual spring space, she not only cured the male lead's body and healed his disfigured face, but also gained the male lead as her backer. She thrived and even brought her younger brother over.
Chu Sisi hated the Minister's Mansion to the core. She wanted Madam Chu and Chu Huang to pay the price. Predictably, with the help of the male lead Gu Xi, the Minister was dismissed from his post, his whole family was exiled, Chu Huang was imprisoned and became Chu Sisi's test subject for medicine. Her limbs were cut off by the male lead and she was turned into a human pig. In the end, she was tortured to death.
Afterwards, the male protagonist overthrew Gu Qi and directly took the throne of Mingzhou. Later, he even unified the nine provinces and became the ruler of the world. The female protagonist, Chu Sisi, was his only empress. The two joined hands and shared a prosperous and peaceful world.
The original plot was supposed to go this way, but the author was too eccentric; he ruined it. Yes, the author of this story is a male author, and his reason for ruining it was that he went home to get married, and his wife wanted him to find a job that would earn money.
Thus, the female lead was forced to marry into the Prince Xi's mansion. Before the spiritual spring space could be opened, she was directly killed by the male lead, Gu Xi. The male lead also died soon after because his body was too badly injured and he did not survive the winter.
The writing was already bad, and then it had a terrible ending with both stories ending tragically. This author is simply unethical.
Reader satisfaction: 5/100.
Wen Wan's true identity is Chu Huang, the vicious eldest daughter of the Prime Minister's mansion. Her task is to ensure the plot progresses smoothly and to satisfy the readers.
