From beginning to end, Han Siyu didn't utter a single word. She neither pleaded for mercy nor asked the Sixth Prince to intervene on her behalf.
With her head bowed and a desolate expression, she didn't notice that there was a strange woman standing next to the Sixth Prince.
Of course, even if she saw it, what could she do?
At first, she thought Liang Huixue was her good friend, and she always protected her and wanted to help her.
But Liang Huixue is such an ingrate. Knowing full well that Fan Taoran is her husband, she still treats him so intimately.
Instead of being grateful, she seduced her husband, drawing his heart closer and closer to her.
As for Fan Taoran, he's no longer the bookish boy she once adored. She's changed, and so has he. Her bookish boy had never shown such an expression before.
Perhaps, as she pushed him to grow up, he quietly changed.
"Siyu, go back and beg Grand Tutor Han to put in a good word for Huixue?"
“???????”
Han Siyu did not reply.
She has absolutely no desire to talk to him right now.
"Han Siyu, did you hear me?"
"You should worry about yourself first. The Sixth Prince is the ruler, and you are his subject. You covet his wife, so you should think about how to appease the Sixth Prince's anger."
"The Sixth Prince won't do anything to me." He still wants the Fan family's help, so he won't go too far.
Of course, not going too far with him doesn't mean they won't take action against Huixue.
What should we do if the prince really makes a move against Huixue?
If he had known, he should have arranged for people to guard the vicinity of this courtyard.
Yang Lian stood beside the Sixth Prince, a cold smile playing on her lips as she looked at Liang Huixue, who reeked of alcohol.
One day, she will replace the woman before her and become the prince's beloved.
A few days ago, Ning Hong had a conversation with her.
Ning Hong then said that she would give her a life of wealth and asked if she wanted it.
She certainly wanted it.
Back then, she wanted to marry Ning Hongze because she was attracted to his handsome appearance, academic achievements, and decent family background.
Now, Ning Hong wants her to seduce the Sixth Prince. If she succeeds, she can become one of the Sixth Prince's confidantes.
If she can give birth to a son or daughter for the prince in the future, she might even be able to become a concubine.
She had no hope of becoming the prince's principal wife or concubine; her status was too low, and Yang Lian herself was well aware of this.
However, as long as she becomes the prince's beloved, she doesn't mind even if she has no official title.
Eating well, dressing well, and enjoying endless luxury—that's what she truly desires.
Of course, she had no intention of vying for power.
Young Master Ning said that it would be best to dissuade the Sixth Prince from his path of vying for power. If the Sixth Prince's ambitions could be dispelled, then following him would naturally be a carefree and comfortable life.
However, if the Sixth Prince holds onto this thought, he can guarantee that if the Sixth Prince is defeated in battle, he will definitely save her life.
"And the biggest opportunity is if the Sixth Prince successfully ascends to the throne. Then you will soar to great heights and might even become a third-rank concubine."
Yang Lian thought it was best to just think about it; such a thing was probably not very likely.
The time-traveling woman has always been proud and arrogant.
The Sixth Prince, a member of the royal family, has a temper that rivals Liang Huixue's.
The Sixth Prince was humiliated and would naturally be unhappy, and Liang Huixue would probably feel the same way; the two of them definitely wouldn't return to the manor together.
Ning Hong then had Yang Lian sob quietly on the road where the Sixth Prince would pass by.
Yang Lian is quite good-looking, and as her name suggests, she is particularly easy to pity.
Her crying, coupled with her stubborn biting of her lip, made it easier for her to attract men's attention.
Liang Huixue was proud and stubborn. Although the Sixth Prince was attracted to her for a while, it is undeniable that he would get tired of her over time.
Yang Lian's personality is completely different from Liang Huixue's. Such a gentle woman looking at you with eyes full of admiration would not leave any chauvinistic man unmoved.
In particular, Yang Lian thoughtfully suggested bringing Liang Huixue back to the mansion, which happened to be seen by the Sixth Prince, who saw Liang Huixue nestled in Fan Taoran's arms.
On the very night that Yang Lian returned with the Sixth Prince, the Sixth Prince favored Yang Lian.
When Liang Huixue woke up from her hangover, her life had been turned upside down.
The sixth prince, who loved her wholeheartedly, actually took a concubine.
Her man slept with other women.
She immediately flew into a rage and started fighting with the Sixth Prince, who eventually slapped her across the face.
"Men's words are truly unreliable. You swore you only loved me back then, but how long has it been, and you've already broken your promise?"
Liang Huixue covered her face, feeling somewhat disheartened.
"It's more like you can't keep your promise than me. You were already in Fan Taoran's arms yesterday. If I had been any later, I would have been cuckolded."
"You're talking nonsense. Fan Taoran and I are just friends. Besides, Siyu is here too."
"Yes, Han Siyu is quite pitiful, watching her husband and friend hug each other. Oh, right, that guy Fan Taoran even made Han Siyu get off the stage to make room for you two."
The Sixth Prince sneered.
The warmth of those days was gone from his eyes.
"You're talking nonsense." There was also a hint of shock in Liang Huixue's eyes.
She vaguely remembered what happened yesterday. It seemed that she did climb into Fan Taoran's arms, but they didn't do anything, did they?
Looking at Liang Huixue's stubborn expression, one could tell that Liang Huixue definitely did not think she was wrong.
"If you can hug and kiss other men, why can't I?"
"Fan Taoran and I are just buddies, we are friends."
"Lian'er and I are also friends."
“You…” Liang Huixue stared at the Sixth Prince in frustration.
His fists were clenched, and he wished he could punch the Sixth Prince in the face.
Ning Hong received Yang Lian's message, and after reading it, he burned the letter that carried the message.
In their past lives, the Sixth Prince and his wife were deeply in love, which was the envy of many. Now, however, with just a change in tactics, they have begun to distrust and suspect each other.
Or rather, their relationship began to break down.
Ning Hong scoffed at how easily they could be separated, thinking that they probably hadn't had a very good life in their previous lives either.
Any man or woman can influence their relationship.
From that day on, the Sixth Prince stopped allowing Liang Huixue to go out.
He even had someone take over Liang Huixue's businesses.
Moreover, he never entered Liang Huixue's room again.
Whenever I see her, I'm reminded of the image of her and Fan Taoran hugging. It makes me feel uneasy.
