Inside her room, Li Na was sitting on the bed.
The conversation she had with her mother just half a shichen ago revolved in her mind.
-------
After Li Rong had promised Li Na that she will help her, Li Na sighed in relief and said to her mother
"Mother, both of us know that I will not get married or If I would have to then I can only become a concubine."
whispered teary-eyed Li Na as she held her mother's hand.
"Mother, you know better than me just how hard a concubine's life can be. So Mother, hear and think over carefully whatever I am going to say next."
Li Rong nodded her head in confusion wondering as to why her daughter looked so afraid and what she plan she had to avoid the upcoming shame and humiliation.
"Mother, I wish to become Lord Xi's concubine."
Said Li Na and Li Rong's face went pale.
A moment later, when the words said by Li Na repeated inside her mind, Li Rong raised her hand to slap her daughter's face.
However, Li Na perhaps had already expected so she got down from the bed and sat on the floor holding her mother's knees.
Li Rong's raised hand remained in the air.
Tears streamed down Li Na's eyes as she said
"Mother, please think over my words as I had requested you to. I just wish to live a peaceful life after so much. Elder Sister is already there …in Xi Manor. And you have already seen just how much Lord Xi cares for Elder Sister. I don't wish for much. I will just live there as a concubine. Since Elder Sister is already there …I would not have to fear anyone even if I would be a concubine in Xi Manor. We sisters can manage Xi Manor together. Lord Xi also…perhaps start to like me a bit …then he will not let anyone say a word about me just like he did for Elder Sister. "
Li Na said in one breath.
A few moments later, she carefully raised her head and looked at her mother's face only to see a thoughtful expression on her face.
Li Na only took it as a sign of her efforts becoming successful.
She stood up from the floor and sat beside her mother again as she said
"Mother, please think over. Even if I become a concubine in Xi Manor, no one will dare to say anything about me. You know just how much respected Lord Xi is in Xin. Perhaps I can help Caihong find a better man who doesn't care for her disfigured face."
Li Na repeated her words over and over until Li Rong was completely manipulated by her own daughter.
"But …what ..how? I mean your Father will never agree to this?"
Said the confused Li Rong.
"That's why I need your help, Mother. Make Father agree somehow. Only you can do this, Mother."
Li Na clenched her fists to stop herself from smiling. Just a few moments ago, her mother was ready to slap for her words but now she was contemplating how she could help her made her father agree.
Li Na pretended to wipe her face anxiously and the next moment her eyes that were filled with tears started to shed tears.
"Mother, I don't know… I don' know anything. Please do help me somehow. I don't want to live a miserable life in the future. Please, Mother"
Li Rong felt very distressed for her daughter when she saw how she was shedding tears non-stop. She could not help but feel pity and sorrow for her as she remembered whatever happened in the Imperial Palace and how she had hit her daughter.
She was a mother. It would be her who would feel hurt after hitting her children. As much as it sounded a little ironic, it was a mother's nature.
Now seeing, how her elder daughter was worried about her youngest one, Li Caihong also, she felt that she went too hard on her.
"Li Na, don't worry. Mother is with you. I will support you."
She patted her daughter's cheek.
After being assured that her mother was really ready to help her, Li Na left for her courtyard.
Unfortunately, Li Na and Li Rong had not seen how blatantly Xi Ying had refused Princess Wenling in the banquet hall when she had proposed to become his concubine. Because if they did, then they would never have done what they did next.
--------
Now sitting inside her room, Li Na felt very anxious thinking whether her mother would really be able to make her father agree or not.
When she had returned from the Imperial Palace, Li Na was very anxious about her future.
She thought that her chance of becoming Xi Ying's wife had been destroyed with this one incident and she could not accept it.
If she wanted something then she got it…by hook or by crook. It doesn't matter at all whom she would have to use for that.
If she wanted Xi Ying as her husband, then she will get him. It doesn't matter what she would have to do for that.
So after a lot of effort, Li Na finally devised a plan.
Since she could not enter Xi Manor as the main wife then she would enter Xi Manor as a concubine. Then after that, she could always snatch everything from Li Rui slowly and slowly. By and by she would make her place in Xi Ying's heart also and those days would not be far away when Xi Ying would start to hate the sight of her 'dear Elder Sister.'
After all, how hard it was to capture a man's heart?
With all these thoughts, Li Na silently accepted every cold treatment her mother threw towards her. She silently stayed inside her courtyard but she had never expected that her mother had called her father from the borders.
When she got to know that her father was back, Li Na got afraid that in her anger towards her, her mother would do something that would destroy all of her plans.
That's why she decided to proceed with her plans as soon as her maid told her that her father was not in his courtyard.
"Second Miss, Master is back from the Imperial Palace."
The maid told Li Na and Li Na immediately stood up from her bed.
A smile bloomed on her face as she tried to comfort her anxious mind and heart.
Her mother will surely make her father agree.
Please report us if you find any errors so we can fix it asap!
