Shen Xiuming looks like he has reformed, but who knows if he will give up halfway?

Shen Wei needs to knock him regularly.

Only because her brother worked hard, Shen Wei would have a bright future.

Rong Mama was so smart that she understood it immediately: "Master, rest assured, I will definitely take care of this matter for you."

Shen Wei performed a play today to inspire Shen Xiuming's ambition.

Shen Xiuming was originally a genius in studying. As long as he worked a little harder, he might not become the top scholar in the future, but at least he would be able to make it to the list of the Spring Examination.

Shen Wei needs Shen Xiuming to enter the officialdom to improve the status of the entire Shen family.

Shen Wei was born in a humble family, and even if she gave birth to a child in the future, she could only be promoted to a concubine at best.

The status of a concubine was very awkward, neither high nor low, and she was not even qualified to be included in the royal pedigree. The children born to a concubine are only registered under the name of the princess.

Shen Wei's goal is to be a concubine, whose status is second only to that of a princess. She can raise children independently and her name can be included in the royal jade book.

But concubines pay more attention to family background. Now the three concubines of Prince Yan's Mansion - Liu Ruyan, Zhang Miaoyu and Liu Qiaoer - all have fathers serving as officials in the court.

If Shen Xiuming could enter the officialdom, even if he was a minor official, Shen Wei would be qualified to be a concubine. By then, Shen Wei will operate in secret and let Shen Xiuming join the King of Yan, so that he will not have to worry about his future.

Chen Wei took a sip of hot tea and looked out the window at the gray night: "Cai Ping, where will the prince stay tonight?"

Cai Ping said angrily, "Master, the prince went to the Rose Garden next door tonight."

The Prince of Yan had originally planned to come to Fangfei Garden today, but the princess said that Shen Wei was injured at the Spring Banquet and needed to rest well.

So Prince Yan changed his mind and decided to go to his new concubine Zhang Yue tonight.

Shen Wei drank her tea slowly, not taking Zhang Yue to heart.

She was not pursuing "one person for life", she only regarded Prince Yan as her ATM and a springboard for her retirement.

If the prince can come to her ten days a month, she is already favored.

As for the remaining twenty days, Prince Yan can sleep with anyone he wants. It would be terrible if Prince Yan slept in her room every day for a month. This bastard was so ferocious in bed that even Shen Wei's strong body couldn't stand it.

"Cai Ping, go get the four treasures of the study. I have to practice calligraphy for half an hour before going to bed tonight." Chen Wei put down the teacup, her mood as calm as water.

Never waste time, insist on internal competition.

...

The Rose Garden next to Fangfei Garden.

Prince Yan had not arrived yet, but Zhang Yue could not wait to take a bath and dress up with the help of two maids.

"Master, you are so beautiful." The maid Fang'er flattered.

Zhang Yue curled her red lips slightly.

Her beautiful face was reflected in the small silver mirror. With a fair oval face, big watery eyes and a graceful and slender figure, Zhang Yue is very satisfied with her appearance.

When Prince Yan arrives later, she will do everything she can to win his heart.

Chen Wei, a humble peasant girl, could be favored by King Yan for two months, so Zhang Yue could definitely do it too.

"The prince is here." The eunuch's voice came from outside the house.

Zhang Yue stood up happily and went out to greet them with two maids. It was already dark, the moonlight was dimly shining, the lanterns on the eaves of the courtyard lit up, and the tall and majestic figure of King Yan slowly appeared.

Zhang Yue's heartbeat quickened. She bowed gently and said delicately, "I am Zhang Yue, and I pay my respects to the prince."

The King of Yan was absent-minded.

Just passing by Fangfei Garden, King Yan saw two mandarin duck lanterns hanging on the eaves of Fangfei Garden, with exquisite and unique shapes. Walking past the wall of Fangfei Garden, King Yan could still faintly smell the elegant fragrance of gardenia.

He wanted to meet Chen Wei from Fangfei Garden, and also wanted to see the purple eggplants that were about to mature in Fangfei Garden.

When he arrived at Zhang Yue's Rose Garden and saw the dilapidated courtyard wall and the uneven trees in the yard, the huge sense of disparity made King Yan quite dissatisfied.

When Prince Yan entered the bedroom of the Rose Courtyard, Zhang Yue came up to him impatiently and said, "Prince, let me help you change your clothes."
