It turns out that the one who likes her cousin... or is related to her cousin Qiu Zeyuan is not Ji Youlan, but Ji Furong.
Every time Qiu Zeyuan came to the Ji family, Ji Youlan didn't see him because she didn't want to, but Ji Furong did.
After knowing that her family was planning to pair Qiu Zeyuan and Ji Youlan together, and learning about Qiu Zeyuan's excellence, Ji Furong wanted to snatch back this marriage.
However, Qiu Zeyuan had no interest in Ji Furong and would just greet her politely every time they met, which made Ji Furong angry and anxious.
It was not until Ji Youlan was married to the third prince that Ji Furong's heart was completely unbalanced.
She didn't expect that Ji Youlan would have such an opportunity.
But why?
Just because she is the legitimate daughter?
But as a legitimate daughter, she has received too much kindness since she was a child. Why is marriage so favorable to her?
On the day when the Third Prince proposed, she heard some things from Ji Youlan and began to think about it.
She was determined to enter Prince Yu's palace, even if it meant becoming his concubine.
After all, as a prince, King Yu had the hope of vying for that position.
And if that day really comes, it is still unknown who will win between her and Ji Youlan.
It has to be said that Ji Furong is very ambitious.
However, Ye Yuqing's heart and eyes were filled with Ji Youlan, so how could he see Ji Furong?
Even after approaching several times, Ji Furong still couldn't get in.
It was this deliberate approach that allowed Qiu Zeyuan to see Ji Furong's selfless spirit in taking care of her sister. He thought that Ji Furong was a kind person, and then he began to pay attention to Ji Furong.
Originally, Ji Furong thought that even if she couldn't win the favor of King Yu, it would be fine to marry someone like Qiu Zeyuan.
But in the end she was still unwilling to give up and didn't want to give up Qiu Zeyuan.
At this time, Ji Furong came up with an idea.
With Ji Furong's intention, she had a relationship with Qiu Zeyuan, and after she became pregnant, she deliberately created the illusion that she was violated by King Yu.
Thus, she succeeded in causing a thorn in Ji Youlan's heart, and Ji Youlan's physical and mental condition began to suffer.
Later, her child did not die. Instead, she gave birth to the child safely and gave it to Qiu Zeyuan.
When Qiu Zeyuan saw the child, he wanted to marry Ji Furong, but Ji Furong refused.
She just regarded Qiu Zeyuan as a fallback and was not planning to marry him after giving birth to the child.
Ji Furong's explanation was that she had to take care of her younger sister and did not want to get married at this time. She only asked Qiu Zeyuan to take good care of the child and wait for her.
Yes, she asked Qiu Zeyuan to wait for her.
Because she is selfish by nature.
She didn't want her retreat to become someone else's man.
Even if she might not marry Qiu Zeyuan in the end, she still wants to keep him.
In Qiu Zeyuan's eyes, Ji Furong is the kind of person who would sacrifice herself for her sister. He believes that Ji Furong is affectionate and loyal, so she is willing to give up her own life to take care of her sister.
How can I not wait for a woman like this?
So, in the past few years, Qiu Zeyuan has been waiting for Ji Furong, and wholeheartedly hopes that Ji Furong can return to him as soon as possible.
As for why Ji Furong was able to deceive several parties, firstly, she was a veteran and had relied on her ability to deceive people to gain Ji Youlan's trust since she was a child. She had already mastered lying.
The second good thing is that she is very smart and good at manipulating people's hearts. It is precisely because of this that she was able to instigate the maidservant around Ji Youlan to rebel very early on.
After Ji Youlan became the Princess of Yu, Ji Furong made the maids feel that Ji Youlan was not favored and that her frail body would sooner or later put her life in danger.
Once Ji Youlan's life is in danger, as the elder sister-in-law of King Yu and the aunt of King Yu's child, she has the greatest chance of becoming the next Princess of Yu, because she takes good care of children and is the best candidate for Princess of Yu.
After learning all this, King Yu was furious and beat the maids and sold them.
Because if these maids had not worked together with Ji Furong, and if these maids had not provided all kinds of "testimonies" and cover-ups over the years, Ji Furong would not have been able to deceive both sides so easily.
As for Ji Furong, after her true identity was exposed, Ye Yuqing hated her to the core and wanted to kill her as soon as possible.
However, letting Ji Furong die like this would be too easy for her, so he asked someone to find Qiu Zeyuan.
When talking about Qiu Zeyuan, we have to talk about Qiu Zeyuan's official career over the years.
After passing the imperial examination, out of jealousy, King Yu used his connections to send Qiu Zeyuan away.
After finding Qiu Zeyuan, Ye Yuqing directly had Ji Furong interrogated again.
She had confessed once before, and later she was imprisoned and tortured. When interrogated again, Ji Furong naturally told everything she knew, including what she should and shouldn't say.
So, Qiu Zeyuan successfully saw Ji Furong's true face.
When Ji Furong saw Qiu Zeyuan appear, she knew that everything was over for her.
But despite this, Ji Furong still asked Qiu Zeyuan to save her.
However, how could Qiu Zeyuan, who always pursues beauty, save Ji Furong after seeing her ugly face?
Besides, how could he, a mere seventh-rank official, save her?
In the end, Ji Furong's reputation became bad, and King Yu didn't want to see Ji Furong again, so he sold Ji Furong to a brothel with a very poor environment outside the capital.
And these are of course later stories.
After the misunderstanding between Ji Youlan and Ye Yuqing was resolved, Su Liyue gave Ji Youlan acupuncture for three days and prescribed conditioning medicine. Ji Youlan's condition became much more stable and she only needed to recuperate slowly.
