EBE Chapter 424 Twin Sisters
Chapter 424 Twin Sisters
Madam He's lips moved as she looked at Concubine Liu in front of her, her eyes filled with sadness. She remembered what the palace maid had said just now, that Concubine Liu lived in this tent.
Concubine Liu...
"Why are you here? Who asked you to come?" Concubine Liu was horrified. She grabbed Madam He's hand tightly, wishing she could hide her underground so that no one would notice her existence.
"Sister?" Mrs. He's wrist was pinched so hard that it hurt, and she finally came to her senses.
Concubine Liu glanced at the door of the tent in panic, "Don't call me that."
"Where is He Zhiyuan? Why did he let you appear here?" Concubine Liu was surprised and annoyed.
Didn't He Zhiyuan say that he would never let Liu Miaoxin leave the He Mansion? Now he actually let her appear in the hunting grounds.
"You have always known that I am in the He family. You have never married far away. You...you have entered the palace to become a noble concubine. The letters I have written to you over the years, in which you said you were wandering outside, are all false, all false?" Madam He's chest seemed to have a big hole, and the cold wind was blowing in.
Her whole body was cold.
She looked at her sister in disbelief, who was wary of her.
When Concubine Liu heard her sister's words, the panic on her face froze, and she finally reacted to another more important issue.
Her sister still doesn't know that she has entered the palace as a concubine, and they have kept it a secret from her all these years.
"I, I do have my own difficulties. I didn't mean to hide it from you." Concubine Liu looked outside the door anxiously.
"Who did you come with? Where is Prime Minister He?" Concubine Liu asked anxiously.
Madam He became more and more suspicious. Why was her sister so afraid to see her? How shameful was she?
They hadn't seen each other for more than ten years, and the younger sister didn't feel surprised at all, but instead panicked.
why?
Why is that?
"What's your difficulty, Imperial Concubine?" Madam He was so angry that she almost cried blood.
She would always try to send some money to her sister every once in a while, for she was afraid that she would be wandering outside and lack food and clothing. She worried day and night whether her sister would be wronged or in danger.
In this world, apart from her son, her sister is her only blood relative.
The results of it?
She was a high-ranking imperial concubine in the palace, enjoying wealth and splendor, yet she suffered so much from being kept secret.
"Are you afraid that I will pester you, or are you afraid that I will try to get close to you?"
Madam He burst into tears, feeling bitter with hatred in her heart.
Concubine Liu said irritably, "I can't explain it to you clearly now, go back first and wait for Prime Minister He to explain it to you."
"What on earth do you take me for?" Mrs. He screamed.
"If you don't explain clearly today, either you kill me or I go out right now and let everyone know that you are my twin sister."
Concubine Liu's face changed when she heard this, "No!"
"Am I so shameful? He Zhiyuan has trapped me in the He Mansion for more than ten years, not allowing me to go out or socialize. You are also afraid that others will see me. I didn't even know that I was so terrifying." Madam He sneered.
She turned and walked out of the tent.
There were sounds of women passing by outside.
Concubine Liu turned pale with fright and hurriedly grabbed Madam He's hand.
"Wait, you can't go out now. Wait a moment, I'll send someone to find He Zhiyuan." Concubine Liu was extremely anxious.
Fortunately, the emperor went hunting, otherwise when he saw that Liu Miaoxin looked like her, she wouldn’t know how to explain it.
Madam He looked at her coldly.
"What secret do you and He Zhiyuan have?" asked Mrs. He.
"No." Concubine Liu avoided her gaze. "We are twin sisters. I entered the palace as a concubine, and it was difficult for you to get married. That's why Prime Minister He let you stay in the mansion."
Madam He chuckled, "Really? Then I will go see the emperor now. The worst that can happen is that I die in front of him."
Concubine Liu's expression suddenly changed, "No! The emperor cannot see you."
"So you are not afraid of others seeing me, but afraid of the emperor seeing me?" After all, they are twin sisters, they have depended on each other for many years, and she knows her sister too well.
"Sister, just consider it as me begging you. It's been so many years, why don't you be patient for a while? Don't let our hard work go to waste because of your selfishness." Concubine Liu held Madam He's hand.
"I didn't know you had been in the royal capital. Prime Minister He only said that you were living well, and you..." Concubine Liu wanted to continue speaking, but when she looked up and saw Madam He's sad and desperate eyes, her lips moved and she couldn't go on.
Mrs. He: "You keep blinking when you lie, you don't even notice it."
"..." Concubine Liu took a deep breath and let go of Madam He's hand.
He looked at her coldly, "Sister, go ahead and tell everyone that you are my sister, so what?"
"Let the emperor see you and find out that I was your replacement and you gave birth to someone else's son. Then we can all die together."
"Don't you want your son's life?"
Madam He didn't understand. "What do you mean? You're going to replace me in the palace?"
Concubine Liu pursed her lips and said nothing, she actually let this slip.
"You go back first, I will find a chance to explain everything to you." Concubine Liu frowned.
"If you don't explain clearly today, I won't go anywhere." Mrs. He shouted.
Concubine Liu looked at Madam He with a cold face.
After their parents died, they went to the royal capital to live with the He family. He Zhiyuan was their mother's relative.
The two sisters are twins and look exactly the same, but the elder sister has been smarter than her since she was a child and learns things faster than her.
Better luck than her.
When the emperor was on a secret tour, he fell in love with Liu Miaoxin at first sight. But at that time she thought the emperor was just a poor scholar and looked down on her at all, so she was only interested in seducing He Zhiyuan.
She thinks He Zhiyuan will have a bright future.
Later I found out that he was the emperor.
He Zhiyuan also knew about it, but he didn't want to send his sister to the palace, so on the day when the emperor and his sister secretly got married, he replaced them.
She entered the palace, but her sister was drugged by He Zhiyuan and forgot who she had sex with that night.
He Zhiyuan said she was the eldest lady of the He family, so she was the eldest lady of the He family.
The reason why Liu Miaoxin was not allowed to appear in front of others was that he did not want everyone to know that Concubine Liu had a twin sister.
In fact, they were more afraid that the emperor would find out that they had been swapped.
Although the emperor still doted on her, he actually noticed something different at the beginning. It was only because she looked too much like Liu Miaoxin and she later imitated her sister's behavior that the emperor dispelled his doubts.
Who knows if the emperor will think of the past when he sees his sister.
"Yes, I entered the palace in your place. You were the first one to meet the emperor, but so what? Now I am the imperial concubine, and I am also the one favored by the emperor. Look at what you have become now."
"You are old and no longer as charming as you were in the past. It is impossible for the emperor to be attracted to you again." Concubine Liu was full of confidence.
Madam He covered her mouth, her whole body trembling, "You, you are so terrible."
