Lin Daiyu's Rebirth

Chapter 240 Being a Concubine is Really Unfair to You

Aunt Lan looked around furtively and confirmed that there was no one else around.

Then he carefully approached the eldest wife, leaned forward slightly, lowered his voice and whispered in her ear:

"Fujin, I thought she was frightened after falling into the water, so I asked the maid in my room to make some cakes and send them to her every day these days!"

Upon hearing this, the eldest wife was stunned at first, then slowly raised her head, her face full of suspicion and disbelief.

After staring at Aunt Lan for a while, his expression suddenly changed and he scolded her sternly:

"It's fine to send you cakes, but please don't have any evil intentions or resort to any shady tactics!

She is the prince's beloved one, so if anything happens, don't blame me for not being able to protect you!"

Aunt Lan was so frightened by the sudden harsh rebuke from the First Lady that her whole body trembled, and the smile on her face instantly became stiff.

She nodded hurriedly, smiling apologetically and answering repeatedly:

"Yes, yes, rest assured, Madam Yu, Lan'er would never dare to harm Madam Yu and would never do anything out of line!"

Seeing this, the First Lady pondered for a moment, thinking that based on Aunt Lan's past behavior, she wouldn't have the courage to do anything wrong.

So he breathed a sigh of relief, waved his hand and said:

"Forget it, forget it. Just know what's going on in your mind. I don't care about you anymore."

After saying this, the eldest wife gently raised her hand, adjusted the gorgeous cloak on her body, and then turned around to leave.

Upon seeing this, Aunt Lan hurriedly stretched out her hands, stepped forward quickly, and diligently helped the eldest lady tie the belt of her cloak.

The whole action seemed extremely respectful and obedient, thinking:

At this moment, I still have to rely on her to gain a foothold. Forget it, I'd better agree to her!

Just as the first wife left, Xiaoya came like a light butterfly.

She approached Aunt Lan cautiously and said in a low voice:

"Auntie, everything has been done according to your instructions!

The back garden is all tidied up!"

Aunt Lan nodded slightly, a hint of imperceptible expectation flashed in her eyes, and she asked softly:

"Hmm... let's not let anyone notice anything. Is the railing the same color as before?"

Xiaoya nodded hurriedly and said, "Don't worry, Auntie, the railings beside the backwater pool look exactly the same now!

There's no sign of any change at all!"

As she spoke, she pointed in the direction of the back garden, indicating that if anyone was worried, they could go and take a look in person while no one was around.

Aunt Lan pondered for a moment and thought that it was still early, so it would be fine to take a walk in the back garden.

So, she took light steps and the two of them walked slowly towards the back garden.

Along the way, Aunt Lan secretly wondered whether Concubine Yu had eaten the plate of cakes. She also thought that her falling into the water didn't cause any waves anyway, so there was no need to mix anything in the cakes!

The more she thought about it, the more proud she became. She followed Xiaoya to the pond in the back garden, took a quick look, and then returned to her room.

After Daiyu woke up, she felt much lighter all over.

The night before last, she dreamed of soaking in cool water. She was awakened by nightmares several times and has been feeling groggy these past few days.

She hurriedly lifted the quilt and walked quickly under the bed in her embroidered slippers.

His eyes first fell on the guqin in front of the desk, and his heart couldn't help but move, thinking secretly:

"I haven't played a proper song since I came back from the prince!

I don’t know when the prince will come back. It must be very cold over there!

At this time, Daiyu was wearing a light pink jacket, and her waterfall-like hair was just half-disheveled casually.

A few strands of black hair fell beside her fair cheeks, adding a bit of laziness and charm to her.

Since I became pregnant, the reaction period has passed, my appetite has been very good recently, and I feel more plump and beautiful than before.

She slowly walked to the piano and sat down, stretching out her delicate hands to gently tune the strings.

When everything was ready, she closed her eyes slightly, took a deep breath, then raised her wrist slightly, and her jade fingers began to dance on the strings.

Suddenly, a melodious piano sound poured out like a gurgling stream, lingering in the entire room.

I only heard her softly chanting Xin Qiji's poem:

“If there is no separation and hatred in my eyes, I don’t believe there are white hairs in the world.

My heart is broken and I can’t stop crying! "

When she opened her red lips and said

When "I often lean on the railings and feel uncomfortable",

As soon as she finished speaking, her slender fingers slowly left the strings, and the originally flowing music came to an abrupt end.

At the same time, a crystal teardrop quietly slid down her fair cheek, like a pearl falling into the earth.

She whispered softly, "My Lord, where are you?"

Somehow, she really wanted the prince to be by her side at this moment!

It has been so long since I came back, but the prince hasn't written a single letter back yet.

When I left, the Huns had already declared war. All the big and small matters in the military camp were waiting for the prince to make decisions. I don’t know if he had eaten well and rested well?

Thinking of this, she gently stroked her slightly bulging belly, smiled and said to herself:

"Your Majesty, you didn't even know I was pregnant with your child. I really want to tell you this news right now!"

Although she had never mentioned the prince in front of the maids recently, she could not hide the deep longing in her heart.

Whenever it was late at night and everyone was asleep, she would often sleep with the letters the prince had given her as her pillow.

She found the token the prince had given her, and stroked it over and over again, as if she could hear the prince calling her name:

"Yu'er, I miss you!"

Now, this longing finally burst out like a flood that broke through the dam, making her unable to suppress her emotions any longer.

Thinking of this, she could no longer bear the torment of longing, and leaned forward, gently lying on the piano table in front of her.

Her shoulders trembled slightly as she sobbed softly.

The suppressed and sad crying voice penetrated the silent room. How painful is lovesickness!

At this moment, there was a creaky sound and the door was gently pushed open.

It turned out that Jiaorou had been waiting quietly outside the window for a long time.

She stood outside the door for a long time, quietly listening to Daiyu playing the piano and reciting poems.

Seeing Daiyu immersed in her own world, Jiaorou couldn't bear to interrupt her rashly. She also knew that Daiyu was missing the prince.

She had never felt such strong emotions before.

Although he envied Daiyu for having all the love of the prince, he never thought of competing for it.

So he waited until the house was completely quiet before he cautiously walked into the room to find out what was going on.

Jiaorou walked quickly to Daiyu's side and said softly:

"Sister, why don't you continue playing?

That song just now was really beautiful!"

As she spoke, her eyes fell on Daiyu.

The woman in front of him sat upright in front of the piano table, with a graceful figure and elegant temperament, like an otherworldly fairy concubine.

Jiao Rou couldn't help but sigh secretly, and said helplessly:

“Ah, this is the Lin Daiyu who is good at music, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, wine and flowers!

This concubine really wronged you."
