Chapter 446 She’s the Boss
Hongyu clenched her teeth. No matter what Sui had done, she was her sister anyway.
If it got out and Long Tianyu took Sui as his concubine, how should Sui face others in the future?
Now she had to harden her heart and betray Lin ngya.
However, despite her experience in brothels, Hongyu didn’t know why she still felt a little uneasy in front of Lin ngya.
Maybe it was because they were not enemies before.
“Princess, you’re right. It’s my sister’s fault indeed. Nevertheless, they fall in love with each other. As Sui’s sister, I could only ask you to yield to my sister’s importunity.”
Lin ngya was not surprised by Hongyu’s words at all.
Between her sister lost and found again and an insignificant savior, if she were Hongyu, she would probably choose to help her sister as well.
Nevertheless, that was fine. She didn’t have to restrain herself. Since Hongyu had cut off the debt of gratitude, why bother to keep a sense of propriety?
“They turn out to fall in love with each other. I’m wondering if you can tell us more details about it. Although our prince is amorous, he won’t just take any girl as his concubine. Do you know about the rules? Even if the prince wants to have a concubine, he should get the consent of the princess first. Since our master has co here, why is your sister still hiding in the room?”
Baishao’s ferocious character made her the most appropriate to infuriate Hongyu by saying this.
However, Lin ngya involuntarily glanced at Long Tianyu.
As she expected, she saw his confused face, Amorous? Haha, perhaps Long Tianyu had never received this evaluation in his lifeti.
“You’re right, but my sister... is shy by nature. So I had better talk it over with the princess.”
On hearing her words, the people around with the intention of watching the fun suddenly curled their lips at the sa ti without prior consultation.
Shy by nature? As an unmarried girl, Sui was so shaless that she even entered a man’s room.
Now her sister must be joking by covering up her disgrace and claiming that she was a decent girl.
“You want to talk it over? Okay, according to the rules of our mansion, if she wants to marry into our mansion as a concubine, she must co from a decent family. Nevertheless, once she marries into our mansion, she must sign an irrevocable contract. After that, her life and death have nothing to do with your family.”
Lin ngya had told Baishao these words on the way.
Baishao looked at Hongyu with a little disdain and a sneer.
It was easy to know soone’s face, but not her heart. Hongyu kept begging her on the way, and even managed to deceive her master.
Unexpectedly, they turned out to keep an ungrateful person around.
“Uh...”
Hongyu hesitated a little. She knew that the so-called concubine was actually no better than a maid.
If a concubine was lucky enough to have a husband who cherished her, she could only get several maids and so money.
However, if she unfortunately had a husband with a tough legal wife, any carelessness could make her end up with being beaten or even killed.
Not to ntion Lin ngya, even the girl in front of her was not easy to deal with.
Although Hongyu loved her sister dearly, she was so clear about her sister’s condition.
If she agreed, her sister would probably annoy Lin ngya in the future.
Her sister could be beaten to death in secret and dragged to the unmarked common grave without being buried.
At the thought of that tragic scene, Hongyu couldn’t help feeling her heart trembled.
No, in any case, she couldn’t let her sister end up in this way.
Thus, she imdiately hardened her heart, put on a greasy smile reluctantly and looked towards Long Tianyu.
“You’re right. Although the princess is in charge of the prince’s mansion, it’s Prince Yu’s ho anyway. So I think the marriage depends on Prince Yu. Do you agree?”
Baishao felt rage surging in her heart. Hongyu was quite a heartless person.
Her sister threw herself at the prince at first, and now she put on such an indecent and attractive look in an attempt to seduce the prince.
Both Hongyu and her sister were shaless. Just as Baishao wanted to talk back, she saw Lin ngya give her an indicative look.
She temporarily suppressed the anger in her heart and looked at her master, waiting for the next indication.
“Well, it makes sense.”
Lin ngya nodded. No one expected that Lin ngya would respond without cursing, as if watching the fun.
Turning around, Lin ngya looked towards Long Tianyu with a smile.
“Your Highness, what do you think of it?”
The thing developed towards a weird direction.
If it developed normally, seeing Hongyu and Sui returned her kindness with ingratitude, as the legal wife, Lin ngya should at least show so disgust and disdain on her face even if she didn’t let loose a torrent of abuse.
But now? Lin ngya wasn’t anxious, but remained calm and composed and passed the question to Long Tianyu.
It was known that all n wanted to have concubines.
Now that she gave up her initiative, didn’t she give her husband a chance to screw around with soone else?
In addition to the crowd watching them, even Hongyu held her breath and waited for Long Tianyu’s reply with a hint of hope in her heart.
“Well, you are the boss.”
Long Tianyu answered without thinking.
During the short ti, he didn’t even glance at Hongyu and the room behind her.
He stood behind Lin ngya silently, and his sight had been occupied by Lin ngya.
He had his mind stuffed with how to cure the injury on Lin ngya’s right shoulder.
He simply considered the conversation between Hongyu and Baishao a puff of wind passing the ear.
“See, it’s useless even you want to talk it over personally. On this matter, our princess is the boss.”
Seeing Hongyu look as astonished as she had swallowed a mouse, Baishao only felt so cheerful.
In the prince’s mansion, everyone knew that the princess was more authoritative than the prince.
Fortunately, the prince didn’t care about the slut at all, so her master certainly gained a complete victory in this round.
Hongyu did not expect the developnt trend.
She had t nurous people, but she had been aware that Long Tianyu was definitely not a simple man since the day she saw him.
But such a brilliant man would never be exclusive to a woman.
However, she had never expected that as noble Prince Yu, he would love the only woman Lin ngya ardently regardless of his face.
It was dood. Even if Sui really beca Long Tianyu’s concubine, she would live a hard life.
“Since I’m the boss, I’ll make the decision on behalf of the prince to allow your sister to marry into our mansion as a concubine.”
No one expected that Lin ngya would allow Long Tianyu to have a concubine.
Even Long Tianyu was shocked. But just as he intended to refuse it, he saw a cold sparkle across Lin ngya’s eyes.
Hiss... It seed that his princess had her own plan.
Based on the current situation, he could tell that he would probably be in trouble if he refused to cooperate with her.
At the mont, he could only accept the bad reputation as a womanizer.
“But...”
Lin ngya changed the direction of the conversation with no smile on her face.
“I am the princess, and she is a concubine. From now on, she is no different from the dostic slaves in our mansion. These days the injury on my shoulder makes it inconvenient for to move, so she should co to serve . Regarding the prince, she doesn’t need to serve him for the ti being. Besides, you should leave Prince Shen’s Mansion today, and Sui has nothing to do with your family from now on. Baishao, give her twenty taels of silver. After that, Sui could be considered bought by us.”
It was absolutely dangerous! Hongyu instantly felt her sweat running down like raindrops.
The pair of eyes, which had been filled with tender sparkles during the journey, was frozen at the mont.
She could only see contempt and indifference in them.
At the mont, she was unable to speak of her bitter suffering.
If she went back on her words, apart from that Sui’s intention would be frustrated, they would probably lose their lives.
She considered it all her fault. How could she be so muddle-headed that she even forgot Lin ngya’s prominent identity?
With bitterness in her mouth, she had to swallow the bitter fruit she planted.
“Okay. Here are twenty taels of silver. Take it, and excuse for not going to the door with you.”
Baishao imdiately took twenty taels of silver from her sleeve and stuffed it into Hongyu’s hands.
Now everything had been settled.
“I still have sothing else to do, so excuse for not talking with you. Tonight it’s Sui’s turn to keep watch at night at my porch. She doesn’t need to have dinner. Just ask her to pack up and then go to the middle yard.”
After telling Hongyu casually, Lin ngya led Baishao and Long Tianyu to go back.
Hongyu looked at the twenty taels of silver in her hand, but felt trendously regretful.
Looking up, she happened to see Long Tianyu who turned around to leave and knelt down in front of him.
“Prince Yu, she’s my only sister. I hope... you can be kind to her and spare... her life.”
It was better to be a rchant’s wife than a wealthy man’s concubine.
Since she began to work in brothels, the instructing flower lady had given them this earnest exhortation every day.
Unexpectedly, she finally pushed her sister into the fire pit in an indirect way out of her idea of leaving things to chance and her selfishness.
However, Long Tianyu neither agreed nor promised her anything. Even without a pause, he followed Lin ngya to walk out of the backyard.
Hongyu felt her heart sank. She knew that it was dood.
The crowd watching the fun had gone, even with no one stirring up a disturbance. Soon Hongyu beca the only left in the backyard, sitting on the ground and looking at the twenty taels of silver in her hand in a daze.
A wry smile rose at the corners of her mouth. After all, both she and her sister could not escape the fate of being sold.
“Sister, thank you so much. You are great. Even Princess Yu has to agree as soon as you talk to her.”
With a joyful look, Sui suddenly ran out of the room.
After helping her sister get up from the ground, she carefully smoothed her sister’s clothes and swept the dust from them.
It was the first ti that Sui had called her sister so affectionate since they t again.
Hongyu felt as if a knife were being twisted in her heart. It was not only because they were about to part forever.
It was probably more to do with her feeling sad for herself.
“Keep the money. Maybe it can help you soday.”
Hongyu handed the twenty taels of silver in her hand to Sui.
