Chapter 419 Regret
She wiped away her tears and said, "I handed her over to my personal maids and sent them to the farm. I thought that I would find a way to take my daughter back after this incident was over. But I never thought that something went wrong later."

Lu Ji couldn't help but ask: "If that's the case, then why did the child end up lost?"

The man listened quietly, but from his scarlet eyes, one could see the huge anger hidden in his heart at the moment.

His little woman, who was so young, was despised by others and had been displaced for many years.

Seeing Lu Ji's angry expression, Princess Yu couldn't help but secretly feel fortunate that Empress Dowager Cao had been buried long ago, otherwise, this man with great power might cause trouble.

If her affairs caused disputes between the two countries, she, as a woman, really couldn't afford to suffer the consequences.

Princess Yu suppressed her chaotic thoughts and replied to Lu Ji: "The Regent is right. Queen Mother Cao does not intend to let Ah Ning go."

As she spoke, she sighed leisurely, "To be honest, this matter is also to blame for my disappointing ex-husband of the Liu family. After the Liu family was demoted, he has been holding a grudge. That would have been fine, but he actually wrote a lot of resentful poems. When these poems reached the ears of Empress Dowager Cao, she took her anger out on Wan'er."

"Otherwise, she wouldn't have to bother with a two-year-old girl." After all, she was the daughter-in-law of the Qi royal family. Although Princess Yu didn't like her deceased mother-in-law, she still had to make excuses for her in front of outsiders.

Lu Ji was naturally not bored enough to compete with a dead person. He glanced at the Princess of Yu with contempt and said bluntly: "Even if the Queen Mother Cao can't tolerate your daughter, can you, as a mother, just ignore her? You just can't bear to give up the stable life you have, so you threw the child to a maid. I guess you only gave her some money and then made some harsh words to force her to take the child away."

"A woman like you is actually qualified to be a mother?" Lu Ji said bluntly.

The face of Prince Yu's wife turned pale instantly. She hesitated for a long time, and finally, she fell silent helplessly.

Seeing this, Lu Ji glanced at her with even more contempt, then stood up and left. When he reached the door, he turned his back to everyone and said coldly, "Let's just leave it at that. Ah Ning has me to protect her. Even if you are her biological mother, she doesn't need you anymore."

Princess Princess of Yu didn't know how she left the imperial city. When she returned to Prince Xian's mansion, she hugged Prince Xian and burst into tears.

"I am too selfish. I harmed Wan'er. Now she hates me and blames me. I deserve it."

Seeing her sister crying so sadly, the wife of Prince Xian couldn't help but comfort her: "At that time, our Xie family was convicted, and your husband's family was also convicted. You are just a woman, what can you do in such a situation? If it weren't for Prince Yu's help, you wouldn't even be able to protect yourself, how could you protect Wan'er?"

There were only two sisters in the room. Princess Yu felt as if her heart was pierced by needles when she heard her younger sister's comforting words. She couldn't help but tell her sister the truth.

"At first, Empress Dowager Cao did not agree to keep Wan'er, but later the Saint and the Queen persuaded her in every possible way, and she agreed."

When the Princess of Xian heard this, she was startled and asked, "Why is Wan'er?"

Halfway through her words, she looked at the Princess of Prince Yu with some horror: "Sister, it's you, right?" After all, they are twin sisters. The Princess of Prince Xian knows her sister too well. She is an ambitious woman. When they were sent to the Great Zhou for marriage, she took the risk and drank the poisonous medicine on her own, and then pretended to be seriously ill and returned to Qi.

She is resourceful and ruthless at critical moments.

Facing her sister's questioning, Princess Yu no longer concealed her feelings. She nodded silently, "Prince Yu pitied me and agreed to keep Wan'er. For this, he even knelt down to beg the Emperor and the Empress to intervene. In the end, Empress Dowager Cao also nodded and agreed. It was me."

At this point, she couldn't help crying: "It was me. I was worried that she would drag me down, so I asked Miss Qin to take her away."

Although they are twin sisters, Princess Xian is gentle and kind, which is very different from her sister. When she heard this, she didn't know what to say for a moment.

This was consistent with her sister's usual behavior, but it also made her despise her in her heart.

Finally, she sighed and said, "That's your own flesh and blood. She's still so young. How could you be so cruel?"

The Princess of Yu sat in silence, like a statue, and refused to speak again.

It was really hard to be at peace with doing something that went against one's conscience, especially when it came to one's own flesh and blood. Her heart was in turmoil, as if it was about to break out of her, and she couldn't help but tell someone about it. Fortunately, the person next to her was her own sister.

Even if she despised her, he was still the one who loved her.

"Like you said, I don't have my natal family to support me, and I can't count on my husband's family, so I only have Prince Yu as my lifeline." She sniffed and murmured, "You also know how jealous and vicious his wife, Sun, was. How can I protect myself if I don't use some tricks? In short, it's either her or me who will die."

The Xian Prince's wife felt sorry for her sister. She sighed and said for her, "So, you forced Miss Qin to take Wan'er away, and then framed her with Sun, so that Prince Yu would dislike her. In this way, you not only lost Wan'er, the burden, but also created a rift between Prince Yu and Zhang, and thus replaced them and became the Princess of Yu."

Although Princess Xian is kind and gentle, she is also an extremely intelligent person.

"Sister, you are right." Princess Yu said with a bitter smile, "But it is not that easy. After that, although Prince Yu was angry with Zhang, she still had the support of her family. I don't know how many ways I used to bring her down."

This woman had been holding these unbearable past events in her heart for too long, and now that she was talking to her sister, she simply poured them all out in one go.

"Later, I got pregnant, and the doctor diagnosed that it was a boy. At that time, Zhang had only given birth to a daughter, and she could still give birth to a son. She felt a sense of crisis and repeatedly troubled me. I took this as an excuse and took the abortion pill on my own." A line of tears flowed from the corners of her eyes: "I killed my unborn son with my own hands. I forced Wan'er to become homeless and killed my own son. This allowed me to completely overthrow Zhang and sit on the throne of the Princess of Yu."

After the secret that had been buried in her heart for many years was finally spoken out, Princess Yu cried and laughed like a madman.

"How can you be so cruel!" After hearing this, Princess Xian suddenly raised her hand, slapped her sister in the face, and then hugged her. The two sisters couldn't help but burst into tears.
