You are all I have now... woo woo..."
Qianye Manqiao no longer possessed the arrogance of the former princess. Her reputation was ruined, her face disfigured, and she was confined to her house. Her mother was demoted from Imperial Noble Consort to a concubine, and her status plummeted.
Now, her identity is the same as that bitch Qianye Bingmeng, and she is even prettier than her. What should she do?
She was once the most beautiful woman in South Vietnam and was recognized as the princess who would marry the best. But now she has become the worst one. How can she accept this?
Seeing Qianye Manqiao crying so heartbrokenly, Concubine Ling pulled her aside and whispered angrily, "Why are you crying? Can crying solve the problem? Although your face was disfigured, before that, Dongxiang Kingdom's Crown Prince Dongfang Ming had already come to the Prime Minister's residence tonight to propose marriage to your grandfather. He plans to do so at a banquet in two days."
"Ah?" Happiness came too suddenly. Qianye Manqiao blinked blankly, unable to react from the sudden surprise for a while.
"But she's not the principal concubine, she's the concubine!"
Qian Ye Manqiao, who was originally in a state of surprise, suddenly lost her expression.
There is a huge difference between the Crown Prince's wife and the Crown Prince's concubine.
"No! I am the eldest princess of Nanyue, how could I marry him as a concubine?" What's even more outrageous is that this title of concubine was given to her before her face was disfigured, which made it even more difficult for her to accept.
"No?" Concubine Ling sneered, "You can't say no now, given the situation? Not only is your reputation ruined, but your appearance has become so ugly. I don't know how I'm going to tell Prince Dongfang about this!"
"Then I can't marry him as a concubine!"
"What's wrong with being a concubine? After all, you can still be a concubine after Dongfang Ming becomes emperor. If you're lucky enough to have a child, you can even become a noble concubine. If you don't marry him, who are you going to marry?"
Seeing Qianye Manqiao's reluctant look, and thinking about how she immediately betrayed her when she encountered danger in the Imperial Garden today, she felt that it was unforgivable even though this was her own daughter.
"Are you still dreaming of becoming the Prince of Northern Wei? Forget it. You'll never dream of a man like that in your lifetime! And as for the Emperor of Dongyang, do you think you still have a chance now?
It's a blessing for you that Dongfang Ming likes you! And we have to find a way to keep it a secret from him first. Otherwise, if he finds out about your disfigurement and breaks off the engagement, you'll really end up living alone."
"I... I can also marry a young talent from South Vietnam!" Qianye Manqiao said unconvinced.
Concubine Ling sneered, "A talented young man from South Vietnam? Are you sure you have the nerve to marry a talented young man? By then, Mi Xue and Bing Meng, who are worse off than you, will have found good husbands. But you, once the most beautiful woman in South Vietnam, will end up marrying a talented young man from South Vietnam. How can you still face going out in the future?"
Besides, as the daughter of the Ling family, you have been honored by the Ling family. Now, it is time for you to repay the Ling family. We are not the Ling family that you can leave just by saying so!
Your grandfather has already made an agreement with Dongfang Ming to let you become the Crown Prince's concubine, while Dongfang Ming will help the Ling family out of its predicament."
"Mother! How can you exchange my daughter's lifelong happiness for your own interests?" Qianye Manqiao asked with extreme dissatisfaction.
