Ye Yan'er took a deep breath: "I can't say a bad word about Chu Yunning anymore. The prince is no longer the prince he used to be."
What she has to do now is to win back Prince Xiao's heart.
Instead of belittling Chu Yunning.
Based on her understanding of Prince Xiao, if Prince Xiao likes someone, he will not allow the other person to slander her.
In the past, even if Ye Yaner made a mistake, Prince Xiao would think it was her fault.
"What does the concubine plan to do?"
Ye Yaner fell into deep thought: "Go and invite the second young lady."
She was at a loss for ideas and wanted to ask Ye Ruying.
Soon Ye Ruying arrived and saw Ye Yan'er's face recovered, smiling happily.
"Don't laugh so quickly, you don't know my current predicament."
Ye Yaner found it hard to say anything and winked at Luzhu.
Lu Zhu understood the matter and explained it briefly. Ye Ruying frowned slightly and quickly said: "Men like fresh people and things. My sister used to be weak. Maybe the prince is tired of it, so why not change it."
Ye Yaner asked: "How to change?"
"The more you don't get it, the more you miss it. Sister, please stop focusing on the prince and find a way to become his good wife."
Ye Ruying and Ye Yan'er have completely opposite personalities. She doesn't like crying, and tears are the most useless weapon.
All dependence is on the other party.
Once you lose your dependence, you will be defeated and even your faith will collapse.
"The princess used to be cunning and domineering, bullying others with power, and everyone was disgusted when she saw her. Now the princess is still arrogant, but she severely punishes evildoers. She has offended a group of people and won over a group of people. She is independent and self-reliant and does not cause trouble to the prince."
Ye Ruying slowly analyzed: "Take the matter of Yihong Mansion as an example. How many people in the capital admire the princess's skills. If it were my sister, could she do this?"
Ye Yaner choked, and then found a reason: "Maybe the prince helped."
"Sister, is it so difficult to admit that someone is good?"
Ye Yaner was silent.
"How many people did Princess Xiao win when she shot two arrows through Yihonglou and Jingniang? How many people in the capital can come up with such a shop that can be opened as soon as possible, and there are so many novel ideas?"
Ye Ruying looked admiring, and Ye Yaner was so angry that she said angrily: "Who are you helping?"
"Of course I am helping my sister. Since we are enemies, we must know ourselves and our enemies. Sister, don't put all your attention on the prince, let alone guard against anyone who tries to get close to the prince. This will only make men tired and bored."
Although Ye Ruying is not married yet, she has already seen the rules clearly after staying in the Ye family for so many years.
"Men like to be obedient and sensible, and have a certain amount of progress and retreat. Tears only make a man feel pity, but they cannot make a man love you."
Ye Ruying held Ye Yan'er's hand: "What you want to do is to make the prince love you, not to pity you and treat you as a plaything, waiting for new playthings to appear, and you will lose value."
"Then... what should I do?" Ye Yan'er panicked. She had no choice now.
I don’t even know how to save Prince Xiao.
"Starting from today, I will send someone to bring back the soup to the prince in two or three days. If the prince comes here, he will also be turned away. I will pretend to be indifferent to everything and pray for the Queen Mother and the two children who passed away.
Pray for blessings.”
Ye Ruying's method made Ye Yaner frown: "It's been a long time, what should I do if the prince forgets me?"
"Sister loves to eat cherry cakes the most. Will you get tired of eating them every day?" Ye Ruying pointed to the cherry cakes on the plate.
Ye Yaner nodded: "What does this have to do with Cherry Cookies? If you like it, I will have someone make some for you and take it back."
Ye Ruying sighed: "Sister, calm down and don't mess with your sense of proportion. What I mean is that you feel tired of eating every day. If you don't see me for a long time and eat it again suddenly, will you feel that the taste is good again? How much?
Eat two pieces?”
After saying this, Ye Yaner suddenly woke up.
"While there is no new member in the palace now, and my sister is settling down, don't mess up your sense of proportion. The prince's feelings for my sister for so many years are not to be abandoned at the drop of a hat."
Ye Yaner pursed her lips and agreed with her sister's words.
"And that child..." Ye Ruying
It was immediately obvious that the child belonged to Prince Xiao.
"What's wrong with the child?"
"Sister's heart is like a mirror. That child is the prince's biological flesh and blood. Maybe the princess is relying on the child to tie the prince."
Ye Ruying wanted to blame but swallowed it down. A few years ago, she had advised Ye Yan'er to produce an heir as soon as possible. Even if it was born by a maid, if she kept it under her knees for the time being, leaving the mother behind, the son would be someone to rely on in the future.
But Ye Yaner seemed possessed by a demon and refused to listen at all. No one was allowed to approach Prince Xiao.
Even her own sister is on guard.
"It must be like this!" If it weren't for the child, Prince Xiao wouldn't bother to look at Chu Yunning.
"The palace of Nuoda should have someone to inherit it. Sister, if there are other heirs in the palace, that child will not be so important."
Ye Ruying proposed again, but Ye Yaner still resisted.
"Even if the prince does not approve of Beibei now, can sister guarantee that the princess will not get pregnant again?"
This sentence hit the defensive line of Ye Yan'er's heart, and Ye Yan'er was completely panicked. One child was enough for her to be in a hurry. How could she win the heart of the prince if there was another child?
"The prince even refuses to look at me, so where did I get my child from?"
Ye Yaner smiled bitterly. For the sake of her heir, she endured all kinds of hardships and drank countless bitter medicines to no avail.
She was injured and could no longer have any children.
Ye Ruying whispered a few words in Ye Yan'er's ear, and Ye Yan'er frowned and subconsciously retorted, somewhat unwillingly.
"The solution lies here. Opportunities are rare. I can only help you so far."
Ye Ruying used to admire her sister very much. She was smart and beautiful, and everyone praised her for her talent.
But since marrying Prince Xiao, all kinds of tricks have been put on the table, and he often steals the chicken but loses the rice.
Whenever I encounter someone who has the means, my sister is no match at all.
"I will remember what you said." Ye Yaner gritted her teeth. She had no other choice now.
A few days later, there was a maid beside Ye Yan'er. Looking at the maid's face, she felt frightened.
The maid is named Shengsheng, and she looks almost like Chu Yunning.
He raises his hands, raises his feet, and smiles, but they look alike, except for the tone of his voice, which is very submissive. He doesn't even dare to breathe, he is too timid.
Luzhu personally trained for several days, and Ye Yaner came to check and accept the results.
"Hello, concubine." Shengsheng bent her knees to say hello.
Ye Yaner frowned: "The voice is still too soft. If you speak louder, you will have more confidence."
"Hello, my concubine!"
After more than ten times in a row, Ye Yaner was willing to spare Shengsheng.
Through this face, she seemed to see Chu Yunning, and she wished she could go forward and scratch this face to relieve her anger.
"Remember, don't shrink back when you see the prince, just do what you did just now!"
Ye Yan'er had a cold face, her heart was bleeding when she thought of sending Sheng Sheng to Prince Xiao with her own hands.
When it was time to check and accept the results, Ye Yaner specially chose a time when Prince Xiao was drunk and asked Shengsheng to clean the corridor.
In the haze, Shengsheng fell down and raised her head to reveal her face.
King Xiao was shocked and rubbed his eyes carefully, suspecting that he had seen it wrong.
Shengsheng stood up, patted her clothes, and continued cleaning. Her posture and appearance looked exactly like Chu Yunning.
He rushed forward and held Shengsheng's arm.
Shengsheng turned around, her eyes flashed with panic, but she quickly returned to normal: "I didn't mean to break the flowerpot, I'll clean it up right away."
Even the voices are similar.
Prince Xiao took a closer look and found something different.
The two people are different. Chu Yunning's eyes are sharp and a bit fierce. His eyes seem to be able to see everything, and he can hide his thoughts without changing his expression.
The person in front of him had hollow eyes and a little less aura.
It's very similar, but it's an imitation that can be seen through at a glance.
"Who are you?"
"My servant Shengsheng is the new maid in the flower house."
Sheng Sheng broke away from Prince Xiao's arm, took two steps back, picked up the broom and continued cleaning.
Prince Xiao suddenly waved away the broom and sneered: "Pretend to be pretentious, tell me who sent you here!"
"Your Majesty, you are hurting this slave." Shengsheng struggled, but she was no longer strong enough. She had tears in her eyes and refused to fall.
Upon seeing this, Prince Xiao immediately let go of his hand and softened his tone: "I will give you some medicine."
"No need, I can do it myself." Sheng Sheng shook her head and refused. She took the broom and wanted to leave. Prince Xiao grabbed Sheng Sheng's arm.
next day
Prince Xiao had a new Aunt Sheng in his palace, and she was very favored. She lived in the courtyard closest to Prince Xiao. She was rewarded with numerous gold, silver and jewels, and she also chose several maids to serve her. She was very popular for a while.
When Aunt Sheng went to greet Concubine Ye, she saw that she was dressed almost exactly like Chu Yunning, and she felt troubled: "Who allowed you to dress like this?"
"Concubine, the clothes were sent by someone from the prince." Aunt Sheng looked aggrieved. She had never seen the princess before and didn't know how similar she was.
Ye Yan'er felt even worse when she heard this. She didn't want to admit it, but she knew in her heart that the prince really fell in love with Chu Yunning!
A mere substitute made the prince so fascinated. If the real person came back, would he still have his own status?
"Do you have your lord..." Ye Yan'er wanted to ask but couldn't. She was so panicked that she waved her hand and asked Aunt Sheng to step back: "If you have nothing to do in the future, you don't have to come to say hello. If you need anything, just let the maid come to you."
Green Bamboo, if you have any other questions, come to me."
She didn't want to look at Sheng Sheng for a second. She mistakenly thought Sheng Sheng was Chu Yunning several times. She was so angry that her heart ached, so she simply ignored her.
"yes!"
For several days in a row, Sheng Sheng served her. Prince Xiao showed great affection for his new concubine. He even took her to ride a horse and asked the doctor to nurse her back to health. Prince Xiao's kindness to Sheng Sheng made Ye Yaner go crazy with jealousy.
