Xu Lingyi wanted to confirm, but it was too late.
A month later, Xu Lingyi decided to get married to reassure her father.
At this time, Xie Huaixing came to the border.
He wanted her to enter the palace as a concubine.
"I don't want to be a concubine." Xu Lingyi just thought it was ridiculous.
"I already have a queen, and I promised her that the position of queen can only be hers. If you behave yourself, I can promote you to imperial concubine in the future."
"I won't be a concubine."
"With your current reputation, it's already difficult for you to be my concubine. Don't push your luck. You were once my fiancée. If you don't marry me, who else can you marry? Who would dare to marry you?"
"My father has already arranged a marriage for me!" Xu Lingyi retorted.
Xie Huaixing sneered and looked down at him condescendingly: "Yier, you are still so naive and foolish. Do you think he dares to marry you? You can only be mine for the rest of your life. Accept your fate. With your temper, it would be difficult for you to even be the mistress of the house, let alone the position of queen."
"I don't want to get entangled with you, don't you understand?"
He actually thought that she was trying to make trouble and compete for the position of queen.
Xie Huaixing's face turned cold, and he said in a deep voice: "Do you have any choice? I am still willing to make you my concubine. If you still don't know how to restrain yourself, you will become the lowest-ranking servant by my side, and everyone can bully you."
Xu Lingyi refused to comply, so he did what he said.
During the day she was the lowest-ranking slave, and any concubine in his harem could step on her. At night she was his toy.
Soon she became pregnant. Perhaps to punish her, he did not give her any status even though she was pregnant.
On the day of delivery, what she waited for was not the midwife, but her own sister.
"Sister, are you wondering why you saw me instead of His Majesty? Or the midwife." Xu Lingmian laughed softly, but his face looked a little ferocious.
"Sister, you can't wait any longer. The Queen was assassinated in the palace. Even though His Majesty heard that you were about to give birth, he still had to go see the Queen first. In His Majesty's heart, the Queen is the most important person. You are just a plaything."
"As for a midwife, of course there isn't one. Sister, you're just a lowly servant. Besides, I won't let you give birth safely. I originally wanted to kill the mother and save the child, but I don't want the bastard you gave birth to. When I can give birth myself in the future, I'll let the baby die in my womb."
"Why?" Xu Lingyi's voice was extremely weak:
Obviously... we are sisters."
She was about to give birth and her abdomen was extremely painful. It felt like her whole body was being cut by a knife. The pain was so severe that she was sweating profusely and could not speak complete sentences.
"Who are you and your sister? Has my father ever had eyes for me since I was a child? He only has you. I am obviously his daughter, but how does he treat me? Outside, I am the daughter of a princess, the legitimate daughter of a general's mansion, and the princess personally appointed by the late emperor. My status is countless times higher than yours, but what about inside the mansion?"
When Xu Lingmian talked about this, he was filled with resentment: "In the mansion, as long as father is here, do I still have a sense of existence? Father only likes you and only sees you."
When talking about these things, Xu Lingmian was filled with endless hatred.
"I don't know how much I want you to die, so that father can see me and my brother."
"Now you are finally going to die, just like your mother who died early. By the way, do you know why your mother died? Have you always been complacent? Your father is still thinking about your mother."
Xu Lingmian laughed sarcastically, "In fact, before your mother died, your father had a relationship with my mother. Do you really think that Ayan and I were born prematurely?"
"My mother is a princess, so she naturally couldn't be a concubine. So your mother had no choice but to die to make room for the principal wife. This was a joint effort of my grandmother and my mother, hahahaha. So why do you think Dad loves you so much? It's because he feels guilty towards your mother."
"All the love he showed you was earned by your mother's death. Do you still think he is a good father?"
"Sister, you've lived a foolish life. You can't see clearly what's going on with your father, and you can't see that my mother is deliberately flattering you. You don't need to be such a fool to live in this world. Try to be a smart person in your next life."

"Miss...Miss!" You Ran called Xu Lingyi several times, but did not see any response from her.
"Miss, what's wrong with you?"
Xu Lingyi shook her head, her voice bitter: "Nothing, just something came to my mind."
She felt complicated and didn't know why she was so stupid in her previous life.
Now that I’ve been reborn, I realize that many things in my previous life actually had clues already.
Xu's father was a great general who was loved by everyone. Among his three children, she was the only one with a bad reputation.
Her reputation was already bad before she broke off her engagement with the Xie family.
Many people in the capital said that she was spoiled and willful, arrogant and domineering, disrespectful to her elders, and an illiterate fool.
In fact, among the noble ladies of aristocratic families, how many of them have good tempers?
But she was the only one whose reputation was ruined.
She didn't believe that her stepmother had no hand in this.
But she couldn't see it clearly in her previous life. She was so stupid.
"Miss, we should go pay our respects to the old lady." You Ran said, "If you don't go, the old lady might punish you again. The beating last time..."
"Let's go later." Xu Lingyi said.
She came back after breaking off her engagement with Xie Huaixing. Four months ago, she was tortured by Old Madam Xu and almost died. It took her almost three months to recuperate before she could get out of bed and walk.
Now that things have just gotten better, the old hag wants to make things difficult for her again.
Everyone said she was vicious, so this time she would show them how vicious she was.
She obviously didn't do anything bad, she was just stupid, but she was slandered by these people.
She must prove these things in this life, otherwise she would be slandered in vain.
