The Red Mansion Big Liar.

Chapter 727 Sisters unite
Originally, Mrs. Niu brought up Concubine Zhen and her family's reputation just to make conversation and ease the awkwardness of having nothing to say.

Unexpectedly, Princess Beijing sneered and said confidently, "Aunt? When you gave that decree to Niu Jizong, did you ever think about us sisters and the face of our family?"

She was a person who dared to think and speak out. She had been holding a lot of resentment since Niu Jizong had ill intentions and used Concubine Zhen's tacit approval to force her to submit.

At this moment, there is no need to worry about complaining.

She laughed at herself and said, "If there was no subsequent reversal in the case, would we sisters be much different from what we are now?"

This sentence really left Mrs. Niu speechless.

Given Niu Jizon's attitude of choosing who to eat at that time, if his sister had not seen the opportunity in time, she would definitely not have been able to escape.

And the fate of two sisters sharing the same husband is inevitable.

If you insist on finding any difference, it is that I can just barely maintain the dignity of the lady of the Duke's Mansion.

But my sister may not be as lucky as I am now.

Yes, after listening to Princess Beijing's words, Mrs. Niu felt even more fortunate.

Niu Jizong had previously treated her with respect only because of her identity as a daughter of the Zhen family. But now, with Prince Ning demoted and Concubine Zhen ill, her identity as a daughter of the Zhen family has become a burden.

On that day, Prince Ning had not yet been demoted, and Concubine Zhen was also fine. Niu Jizong just knew the inside information of Prince Ning's assassination, and he not only intended to use force on his sister, but also beat himself.

This move also exposed his ruthless nature.

Given his attitude towards herself, I'm afraid he would be reluctant to even look at her once more before she grows old and loses her looks.

Even if you are interested in your sister for a while, I am afraid that after a long time, you will just treat her as a toy.

On the other hand, Zhang Yun逸 did not treat himself as a tool to be ordered around just because he was a slave.

On the contrary, they are warm and caring.

In comparison, the difference is obvious.

What's more, Zhang Yun逸 has strengths that even Niu Jizong cannot match.

As someone who had experienced this, she was deeply touched by how precious this thing was, especially when she noticed the unprecedented radiance on her sister's face.

I can't even say anything to refute.

Princess Beijing saw her sister remained silent, so she took advantage of the situation and said, "Since in their eyes, we are just bargaining chips, why should we be so hesitant because of them?"

At this point, she grabbed her sister's hand and said meaningfully, "On the contrary, Yun Yi, who has no relationship with us, is trustworthy and loyal. He is willing to give up the credit for saving the emperor for us and fulfill his promise. He treats us so well, is there anything else that my sister can't let go of?"

Mrs. Niu felt ashamed and said, "Yes, I thought too much."

"Sister, don't blame yourself. You just didn't come to your senses for a while."

Princess Beijing saw this and said sympathetically, "I know he thinks we are using our beauty to please others and is worried that we will be despised, but it is easy to get a priceless treasure but hard to get a lover. Wouldn't he be criticized for keeping us in his mansion?"

"I...I..." Mrs. Niu felt even more ashamed when she heard this.

"Sister, you don't need to blame yourself. I know that you didn't know the truth before and you were just worried about your younger sister. Now that you know the whole story, you will definitely be grateful to Yun Yi."

Princess Beijing comforted her sister, and then she continued to persuade her sister: "Although he saved us, it is not without asking for anything in return, but even my aunt abandoned us. We are not related to each other, so how can we expect him not to ask for anything in return? Moreover, if he really does not ask for anything in return, can my sister feel at ease?"

"Yes... Oh, no, I am willing to work like a slave to repay the Duke's kindness."

Speaking of being a slave, Mrs. Niu's face unconsciously flushed. Princess Beijing saw this and sighed: "Yes! Apart from serving him well, what else can we sisters do to repay him?"

"I...I know it now."

Mrs. Niu didn't expect that the topic would be so roundabout that it would turn around to the topic of being humble and serving Zhang Yunyi. Although she knew it very well, she still felt it was unbearable and was ashamed to discuss it with her sister. She quickly changed the subject and said, "Let's... let's not talk about this."

Unexpectedly, the usually considerate Princess Beijing did not seem to notice her embarrassment. Instead, she brought up the issue and took her hand and said, "We are sisters. Since you have already let go of your grudges, what is there to be ashamed of?"

"You...what are you going to say?"

"Alas! Actually, my sister has been troubled for a while."

Princess Beijing sighed and said, "I believe that sister also deeply felt it last night. Yun Yi is not an ordinary person. Although I also hope to do my best to serve him well, I am unable to do so. If sister is willing to work together with me, not only can you solve my urgent need, but you can also better repay Yun Yi's kindness..."

"You...how could you..."

Even though Mrs. Niu had already accepted the current situation, she still couldn't help but feel frightened after hearing Princess Beijing's proposal.

However, Princess Beijing not only agreed with Zhang Yunyi's evaluation of her, but even extended it to the two dimensions of measurement and time.

Because of this, although he was opposing his sister's proposal, he seemed to lack confidence and his words were somewhat incoherent.

Princess Beijing knew her sister's character best, so she quickly put on an act of pity and said, "Maybe my sister can bear it, but my younger sister always risks her life... Can't my sister... Or is my sister worried that my younger sister will get a share of the profits..."

Mrs. Niu subconsciously denied: "No! No! How could I..."

"Then I'll take it as your sister's consent!"

Princess Beijing did not give her any chance to regret and immediately made the decision: "Then if Yun Yi comes again tonight, I will go to my sister's room. I hope you won't chase me away, right?"

Now that things have come to this, how can Mrs. Niu object anymore?

It's not that Princess Beijing is so treacherous that she seduced her own sister in order to help Zhang Yunyi achieve his ulterior motives.

However, she knew very well that although Mrs. Niu was the eldest sister, she had a soft personality and was far less firm than herself.

She should silently endure some of Zhang Yunyi's dark sides and only let her sister see his sunny side.

This way, she can avoid getting into trouble.

Now that things had come out, in order to prevent her elder sister from running away, Princess Beijing simply started to blow herself up, revealing all the shameful things she had done in front of Zhang Yunyi.

Mrs. Niu was frightened by what she heard, but she also felt the same way and her face turned red.

However, perhaps out of consideration for her sister's feelings, or perhaps because she herself was truly incapable of doing so, she did not make any more excuses, but rather half-heartedly agreed to Princess Beijing's arrangement.

Princess Beijing took the opportunity to say frankly that she did not sleep well last night. While everyone was going back to their rooms to rest and recuperate, she sent someone to deliver a message to Zhang Yun逸.

After the two sisters had rested up, had dinner together and taken a bath, Zhang Yun逸, who had heard the news, looked at the two sisters who were shoulder to shoulder, shy and timid, but ready to fight at any time.

As he walked quickly forward and took the two of them straight to the point, he was amazed at the efficiency of Princess Beijing.

At first, the two were humble and yielding to each other, but in the second half, they started to compete with each other.

However, unlike Lady Xing and Wang Xifeng, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who were fighting openly and secretly, the two sisters were thinking of sharing each other's worries.
