Jun Liuji... Many years ago, a stunningly beautiful princess, after a marriage alliance between the Crimson Kingdom and Yuan Cang, sent Liu Ji over. It turned out that Liu Ji was originally married to Idle King Qi Qing, but later somehow became Chancellor Su Chi. After this unparalleled beauty passed away, her father lamented for quite some time.
"Indeed, it's something born of a mother but raised without one. Eldest sister is talking to you; what wicked ideas are you scheming?" Su Mengyun saw Su Xingyan frowning and immediately rushed forward to scold Qin Ge.
Qin Ge looked up seriously at the two of them. Both girls were decent-looking, with the one on the left being slightly more attractive, but her sharp and mean face ruined that charm. The older one was not bad either, but could only be considered better-looking than average.
In summary, both of them, whether in appearance or temperament, were worlds apart from the true self of this body.
But perhaps because of this, the owner of the body was always troubled by them.
"You and I are both children of the Chancellor family. In terms of status, I am a princess by birth; my identity as a Legitimate Daughter stands firm. What qualifications do you have to insult me?" Su Peijiu snorted coldly, releasing the authority of the Princess of Yan State, which immediately intimidated the originally arrogant duo.
However, Su Xingyan quickly reacted. She stepped forward and slapped Su Peijiu. "Smack! Uncultured thing! Who allowed you to speak to me like that?"
Qin Ge was momentarily stunned by the slap; no one had dared to hit her face before. She didn't react for a moment, and Su Xingyan, thinking she was afraid, prepared to slap her again. But just as her hand went up, Su Peijiu moved. She stepped back and then sidestepped forward, her sharp-nailed hand striking the once smug Su Xingyan's face.
"Did you think I would let you hit me a third time?" On the day of her rebirth, once was enough; she absolutely would not allow a third!
With her hand caught, Su Xingyan retracted her smile and looked seriously into Su Peijiu's eyes. It seemed this once weak Legitimate Daughter was different from before; but... so what?
"Su Mengyun! Are you just standing there watching the show? Come here now!"
There was only one Su Peijiu, but she... had two!
Su Mengyun was shouted at and immediately rushed over, grabbing Su Peijiu's hair and pulling it back. Su Peijiu winced in pain and released her grip on Su Xingyan, her body leaning backward. In the midst of this, she was kicked in the waist by Su Mengyun, losing her balance and falling to the ground.
Seizing the opportunity, the two began to punch and kick her. Su Peijiu gritted her teeth and endured... Even though her soul was no longer the same, her body had not changed. The accumulated fear and pain from her past made it nearly impossible for her to move. Furthermore, living in the Prime Minister's Residence, where meals were scarce, left her physically weak; not only was she unable to fight back, but even running quickly could make her faint.
As she looked at the warm sun in the sky while wearing her embroidered shoes, she realized that her lower lip had been bitten until it bled, making her lips appear even more delicate...
After tiring themselves out, Su Xingyan tidied up her appearance and pretended to wipe her foot on Su Peijiu's clothes. "Remember! Even if you are the Legitimate Daughter, since your mother is dead, you are nothing! Father loves me the most and despises you the most. Open your eyes and see this reality clearly!"
After saying this, Su Xingyan shot a glance at Su Mengyun, who understood immediately and poured a pot of water meant for watering plants all over Qin Ge.
"Let's go." Su Xingyan looked at the person on the ground convulsing and sneered before turning away. Su Mengyun quickly followed behind her.
Although it was already March, being drenched with that pot of water made Qin Ge feel extremely cold. Coupled with the constant pain in her stomach, she thought she had never felt such pain even when Qi Mo's sword had pierced her chest.
The servants nearby watched coldly from a distance, with no one coming forward to help. Su Peijiu climbed up from the ground with a sarcastic smile, noticing that everyone averted their gazes as she passed by.
She remembered today's events; she memorized every face of those who caused her suffering! The first thing she learned after being reborn was to remember all those who made her suffer now so that when she gained power, she would repay them tenfold!
She was not someone who sought revenge for every slight, but after experiencing the fall of the Great Yan Kingdom, she decided to bury all kindness within herself. Qin Ge was no longer Qin Ge; she would live as Su Peijiu! Using the identity of Su Peijiu to avenge family grievances and national hatred!
Qi Mo owed her; Yuan Cang Kingdom owed her; they all owed her! She would reclaim everything inch by inch—!
With this determination, Su Peijiu forced herself back to her Yard. If she remembered correctly, there seemed to be some herbs planted in that Yard. It appeared that the original Su Peijiu often got beaten and had no doctor to treat her injuries, so she grew them herself for healing.
Fortunately, the master had no intention of taking her life back so soon after her rebirth. Su Peijiu saw the herbs for treating wounds in the yard.
She extended her already bruised hand, crushed the herbs, and applied them to her wounds, wrapping them in gauze. Sitting in a chair, after a while… she reached up to touch the corner of her eye and murmured to herself, "It's okay, Su Peijiu… everything will be fine, it's okay..."
Later in the evening, she found the accounting room. Holding the pitifully small monthly allowance, she walked back to her yard with her back straight amidst the sympathetic yet mocking gazes of others. She did not need sympathy, especially not that kind of pity from those who enjoyed watching her misfortune. She could live well on her own; she definitely could…
The most crucial thing right now was how to change her life. This body needed proper care; otherwise, what capital did she have to confront Qi Mo?
