Out of curiosity, Zhuang Zhenmeng pressed her ear against the study window and heard Zhuang Tianming say, "Daughter, that little girl will be sacrificed by the Emperor tomorrow. After this is over, I will report to the Queen Mother and ask her to give you to Prince Chen as his consort. According to the High Priest's calculations, the planet representing Prince Chen is dim, and he is expected to die soon. As long as you marry into Prince Chen's mansion, after he dies, all of Yu Chenfeng's assets will belong to our Zhuang family."
Zhuang Yueru didn't have any objection, but thinking that Yu Chenfeng already had a wife, she had no confidence that she would be able to enter the Prince Chen's Mansion. After all, the current Princess Chen was recognized as the most beautiful woman in Luosuo Country.
Zhuang Yueru said, "Father, even if the Queen Mother agrees to the marriage, I don't know if Prince Chen will agree."
Zhuang Tianming immediately replied with confidence, "How could it not be? I have also seen Prince Chen's wife. Although she is extraordinary in appearance, she has a short lifespan. It's okay. She will definitely pass away in a few days."
"That's fine. I don't mind being someone else's concubine, but I'm the legitimate daughter of the Zhuang family. There's no way I'd be someone else's concubine."
"Of course, you are my precious daughter, Zhuang Tianming. How could I possibly let you become someone else's concubine?"
Only then did Zhuang Yueru nod in satisfaction.
"Okay, then Yue will follow all of Dad's arrangements as he wishes."
"Well, I've endured it for so many days. After I send that little girl out tomorrow, I can finally get a good night's sleep. But Yueru, her room is full of offerings. Dad is afraid that she won't be able to resist opening it and looking inside. To avoid any complications, Dad still hopes that you can take a couple of walks to her yard before she goes to sleep."
"I understand, Dad..."
“…”
Damn... Listening to the conversation between the father and daughter in the study, Zhuang Zhenmeng was so angry that she almost wanted to rush in and kill them because they had deceived her so badly.
What the father and daughter said about letting her enter the palace as a concubine was all false. It turned out that their real intention was to throw her into the river like an animal and sacrifice her to the river.
What a terrible thing! Zhuang Zhenmeng really didn’t dare to think about it anymore.
In order to prevent the father and daughter from attacking her, Zhuang Zhenmeng really escaped from the general's mansion this time and came to the post station. She paid double the price to have someone send her out of Ningcheng overnight.

Nanny Zhao walked into Shu Jiaying's room and glanced at the empty bowl on the table.
Unsure whether Shu Jiaying had taken the medicine, Nanny Zhao asked, "Princess Chen, are you used to the taste of this fertility soup?"
Shu Jiaying lay listlessly on the table and shook her head.
"I'm not used to it. The soup is thick and salty, and it feels greasy. It's really unpalatable."
"Have you finished your drink?"
Seeing Zhao Ma's nervous expression, Shu Jiaying frowned in grievance.
"I've finished it. Even though this soup tastes bad, it was specially made for me by Aunt Zhao. How could I not finish it?"
Hearing Shu Jiaying say this, Aunt Zhao finally felt relieved. She said hypocritically, "Princess Chen, for the sake of the prince, this time it is really difficult for you."
"It's nothing. I did all this willingly. It's a pity that I finished a whole bowl of soup, and I don't know when Ah Chen will come back from the palace."
In the evening, Yu Jianxuan suddenly called Yu Chenfeng to the palace without saying what was going on. Thinking of this, Shu Jiaying became a little worried.
