Father, who is both a heir and a descendant, is still biased; the bound system has gone berserk.

Yuan Jingchen was stunned.

He turned to look at Bai Mei. Why did Mei look like she had suffered a great injustice when such a great thing had happened so suddenly?

If they could enter the Third Prince's residence, the cousins ​​would no longer have to suffer in this residence.

It wouldn't be impossible for them to get rid of Zhou and her son.

Bai Mei looked at him with a sorrowful expression, tears welling in her eyes, and slowly shook her head.

Yuan Jing felt a pang of tenderness in his heart. Yes, Mei'er knew that entering the Third Prince's residence was a golden opportunity, but she only had eyes for him and was unwilling to leave his side.

Mei'er was so devoted that she would rather suffer and be tormented by Zhou and her son than leave him.

He will not let such kindness go to waste.

Unlike that noble lady, who was proud and arrogant and didn't take his feelings seriously at all.

Yuan Jingchen sneered inwardly. With Yuan Bujin staying in the capital, he would have plenty of opportunities to get close to Shangguan Fei. Although Shangguan Fei came from a powerful family, she was a young woman, already quite old, and spent her days fighting and wielding weapons. Who would want her?

He was, after all, Yuan Bujin's eldest son, and he was worthy of her no matter what!

His eyes flashed, and a plan suddenly formed in his mind.

If we ask the Third Prince to negotiate with the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion, this matter might actually be resolved.

He was eager to see just how ugly the Zhou mother and son's faces would be.

Thinking this, a sense of pleasure flashed through Yuan Jingchen's mind, and he turned to look at the person above him.

This time, regardless of their intentions, the old man and the Zhou mother and son did do a good deed.

He said, "So that's how it is. It was your son who misunderstood you. My cousin has never seen any noble people in the palace since she was a child, so perhaps she was just feeling flustered."

The Third Prince is of noble birth, and it is a wonderful thing for my cousin to be able to enter his household. Please allow me to go and comfort her.

Yuan Bujin looked at him and nodded in satisfaction. "You're not completely naive. With Bai Mei's status, being able to enter the Third Prince's residence is already a great honor. You should cherish this opportunity. His Majesty intends to promote your father, so he will definitely give our family face."

"Yes, Father." Yuan Jingchen replied.

Yuan Jingchen and Bai Mei returned to the courtyard.

White plum blossoms and pear blossoms seem to whisper secrets, their beauty captivating.

She choked back tears as she questioned, "What did you mean just now, cousin? Are you also going to let Mei enter the Third Prince's residence?"

Do you really want to push Mei'er into another man's arms?

Yuan Jingchen felt a sudden pain in his heart. He couldn't help himself and pulled Bai Mei into his arms, kissing her lips.

Bai Mei was taken aback at first, but soon she was overjoyed and hugged Yuan Jingchen back, and the two kissed passionately.

The kiss was unstoppable; clothes were disheveled on the floor, and shadows overlapped on the bed.

Suddenly, Yuan Jingchen rolled over and got up, hurriedly picking up his clothes from the ground and putting them on.

His face turned pale, and he slapped himself across the face.

"What are you doing, cousin?" Bai Mei sat up from the bed, looking at him with a pale face.

Yuan Jingchen said painfully, "Mei'er, we can't, at least not now."

Tears streamed down Bai Mei's face. "Why? Does Cousin regret getting close to Mei'er?"

Yuan Jingchen couldn't bear it, so he stepped forward and gently wiped away her tears, saying, "Mei'er, your cousin likes you so much, how could he regret getting close to you?"

However, you are about to enter the Third Prince's residence. If the Third Prince discovers that you are not a virgin, then something terrible will happen.

Mei'er, we almost caused a disaster just now.

Bai Mei asked blankly, "Cousin, you still want me to enter the Third Prince's residence?"

Yuan Jingchen paused, a hint of ambition flashing in his eyes.

He sat down beside Bai Mei and pulled her into his arms.

"Mei'er, listen to me."

As he spoke, he gently draped his body, which was as smooth and delicate as white plum blossoms.

He then realized that although Bai Mei had been mistreated in the Yuan family since childhood, she was naturally beautiful and had a lovely appearance.

The Third Prince will definitely like it; no man would dislike it.

He said, "Mei'er, although the Third Prince is not the Crown Prince, he is still a prince and will be a noble prince in the future."

Moreover, the Crown Prince is in poor health, and if things go wrong in the future... it's uncertain who will inherit the throne.

If you are lucky enough to be chosen by the Third Prince and he ascends to the throne, you, as the first woman in his household, will at least be a concubine.

If you give birth to another child and gain the favor of the Third Prince, you will be a Noble Consort, and you would be worthy of the Empress's position.

Mei'er, don't you want to rise above others, to be second only to the emperor, above all others?

Bai Mei stared at him blankly, her face filled with horror.

Yuan Jingchen said, "Even if things don't go well, the Third Prince will still be a prince in the future. As the first woman of a prince, the Third Prince will certainly not mistreat you when he marries or takes concubines in the future."

If you give birth to your eldest son early, your status will be unique, and you will be guaranteed wealth and honor.

If you return to the Yuan residence, even Madam Zhou won't dare to look down on you.

Bai Mei was stunned, seemingly immersed in Yuan Jingchen's description.

Yuan Jingchen grasped her hand and said, "Mei'er, if you can win the favor of the Third Prince and persuade him and Consort Xian to propose marriage for me at the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion... I'm sure the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion will not refuse."

At that time, even if the Zhou family schemes and plots, they will not dare to mistreat me.

He must give a generous betrothal gift, so that I can get back the dowry my mother left me.

After Shangguan Fei enters the family after the marriage, given her status, Zhou Shi will not be able to use her position as mother-in-law to suppress her.

Shangguan Fei has not only the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion behind her, but also the Crown Princess. What kind of scandals do you think Zhou and her son will be able to stir up then?

"At that time, I will be able to avenge my mother. That opportunistic Yuan Bujin, seeing my power and influence, will surely try to curry favor with me."

"Mei'er, they've given us a ladder to heaven!"

A hint of excitement appeared on Yuan Jinchen's face. "How could that scoundrel Yuan Bujin have imagined that they were putting a knife to his own throat?"

"Is my cousin truly determined?" Bai Mei understood that her entry into the Third Prince's residence would be entirely beneficial to her cousin.

Yuan Jingchen said, "Cousin, when we both rise to great heights in the future, it will be very easy for us to meet and do whatever we want."

His ambiguous hand gestures were suggestive and highly suggestive.

Bai Mei blushed and said, "Okay, as long as it can help my cousin and benefit him, I am willing to suffer some grievances and leave his side temporarily."

Mei'er only felt regret that she couldn't give herself completely to her cousin.

"Mei'er, no matter what you are like, you will always be the most special woman in my heart."

I had no choice but to marry Shangguan Fei. If she weren't so suitable and could help me, I wouldn't have done it...

"I know." Bai Mei gently touched his lips with two fingers, her eyes full of affection.

Yuan Jingchen's Adam's apple bobbed as he resisted the temptation and pushed Bai Mei away.

"Mei'er, hurry up and get dressed, it won't be good if someone sees you."

Bai Mei reluctantly picked up the clothes and put them on, her eyes gazing tenderly at Yuan Jingchen.
