...
The next morning, the clear calls of Huang Ling's bird were heard outside the house. Prince Yan had the habit of getting up early, and he opened his eyes habitually.
My arms feel warm.
King Yan looked down and saw Shen Wei sleeping soundly in his arms. Her black hair was scattered on her round shoulders, and under her straight nose were slightly swollen lips.
King Yan couldn't help but gently hold Shen Wei's waist. Such a thin waist could actually withstand his...
He couldn't help but feel a little pity in his heart.
Shen Wei was sleeping soundly when she suddenly felt a weight on her body. She opened her eyes in a daze and the handsome face of King Yan came into view.
Shen Wei was stunned for a moment, then her pretty face flushed, and she said shyly: "I can see the prince as soon as I open my eyes, which is very joyful."
Her eyes were pure, full of undisguised love.
The eyes don't lie.
King Yan knew countless people, so he could naturally see that the passion and love in Shen Wei's eyes were not a disguise. She really felt happy, and she really loved herself.
King Yan had not seen such pure love for a long time.
He couldn’t bear to disappoint her, so he lowered his head and kissed Shen Wei’s forehead: “This king still has official business, I will come to see you tonight.”
Shen Wei shrank into the bed shyly, revealing only a pair of big dark eyes, and said expectantly: "Then...then I will wait for the prince, the prince's words are golden and jade, and he cannot break his promise."
Seeing her expectant look, King Yan couldn't help but burst out laughing.
The maid came into the room to help her change clothes, and Prince Yan quickly left Fangfei Garden.
On the bed in the room, Shen Wei sat up with a grin, her whole body aching.
King Yan thought she liked him?
Tsk tsk, eyes can be deceiving.
Shen Wei hugged King Yan as if she was holding a large golden ingot. She doesn't love King Yan, but she loves Jin Yuanbao sincerely from the bottom of her heart!
For the next three consecutive nights, King Yan stayed in Fangfei Garden.
For a time, Shen Wei was very popular in the backyard.
...
In Kunyu Courtyard, Nanny Liu accompanied the princess in embroidering.
While combing the embroidery thread for the princess, Madam Liu muttered, "Princess, the prince has been staying in Shen's room for three days. Do you need to send her contraceptive soup?"
The princess was embroidering chrysanthemums. The white petals and tender green leaves were the most elegant chrysanthemums blooming on the handkerchief.
The princess is as quiet as a chrysanthemum and does not fight or compete with others. This is the portrayal of her today.
The princess said calmly, "No need, just let it go."
Flowers do not stay in bloom forever; they wither in a flash. Over the past ten years, there have been many women like Shen Wei in the palace.
Everyone thought they could be the exclusive favorite of the prince, but in the end they had nothing.
"Just think of it as a joke." The princess raised her lips into a teasing smile.
Even if Shen Wei was lucky enough to get pregnant with the prince's child, she would not be qualified to raise the child due to her humble background - unless Shen Wei could achieve the position of concubine.
It’s a pity that Shen Wei’s background is too humble, and she can only be a concubine at best in this life.
...
In Qixue Pavilion, concubine Liu Ruyan is reading a book.
The maid Xuemei whispered in her ear: "My lady, I heard that the prince stays at Shen's place every day...Should we find a way to summon the prince?"
Xuemei really cares about Liu Ruyan.
But what can be done? Liu Ruyan does not fight or compete, and her personality is as calm as a chrysanthemum.
Liu Ruyan spent the whole day in the house reading books and playing the piano. Occasionally, she would collect fallen petals, dig a hole to bury the flowers, and write eulogies for the petals.
"How long can you serve a man with your beauty?" Liu Ruyan continued to concentrate on reading, and said calmly, "Shen is also pitiful. She is in a situation where fire and oil are boiling, but she still thinks she is in a flourishing situation. Alas."
Liu Ruyan sympathizes with Shen Wei.
Xuemei: ...
I don’t think Master Shen is pitiful at all!
The delicacies from land and sea, silks and satins, gold and silver, and jewelry bestowed by the prince filled up Fangfei Garden! Chen Wei was also very generous. She did not monopolize the gold, silver and jewelry, and generously gave many pieces of jewelry to Caiping and Cailian.
Xuemei also wants a reward from her master!
But Liu Ruyan was indifferent to fame and fortune, and did not like money. She never gave Xuemei any rewards, and even asked Xuemei to wear white clothes and serve her.
Xuemei wears white clothes to work every day and feels like she is visiting a grave.
Poor Xuemei has been with Liu Ruyan for five or six years, but the family’s debts have not yet been paid off.
"Oh..." Xuemei sighed secretly, thinking expectantly, "It would be great if I could be a maid in Fangfei Garden."
The princess and Liu Ruyan were not optimistic about Chen Wei, and all the concubines in the palace were waiting to see Chen Wei make a fool of herself.
The higher Shen Wei climbs, the more miserable she will be if she falls.
Shen Wei is not stupid.
She had studied the situation in the royal palace's backyard and found that the backyard of Prince Yan's palace was very special: there was no abortion, no false accusations, and the wives and concubines did not compete for favors. They all lay down and lived like salted fish. Even the princess was not on guard against her and did not take Shen Wei seriously at all.
Everyone was waiting to see her make a fool of herself.
The Queen of Volumes, Chen Wei, sighed: So useless!
She wants to crush these good-for-nothings to death!
Who says vying for favor is useless?
The exquisite green peony that had just been moved into the garden, the new gold-threaded sandalwood bed in the house, the pearl jewelry in the small treasury, the green flowing fairy dress on her body... these were all the results of her vying for favor.
Even the two maids who served her had their basic salary and bonus increased.
How nice!
Serving men with your beauty will certainly not last long. But Shen Wei will work hard to become the longest-serving employee around King Yan.
After old employees have used it for a long time, Yanwang will get used to it. Even if new employees appear occasionally, they cannot shake Shen Wei's position.
Cai Lian held a towel in her hand and watched Chen Wei practicing Ba Duan Jin in the yard. Cai Lian couldn't help but remind him, "Master, you are now the only one favored by the prince... Listen to my advice, you must give birth to the prince's child as soon as possible to keep your position."
