After Shen Wei finished her selection, other concubines began to make their own. In the end, everyone had their own thoughts, thanked the princess together, and left Kunyuyuan.
In the evening, Prince Yan came to the princess's place for dinner.
At the table, the princess seemed to casually mention the incident of "Chen Wei taking away the floating brocade", and said with a smile: "Your Highness, don't blame Shen. She came from a poor family, and it is understandable that she would take good things for herself when she saw them."
Aunt Liu beside her was indignant: "Princess, you can stand it, but I can't. Shen relied on the favor of the prince to be the first to grab the cloth. She doesn't take you seriously at all."
Prince Yan's face turned cold instantly.
He couldn't help but start to reflect on whether he had been too indulgent towards Shen Wei recently?
Although he liked Shen Wei, this woman always brought him endless freshness - but he didn't expect that Shen Wei would be so arrogant that she would covet the best fabrics.
Prince Yan couldn't help but recall that he once favored a concubine, who gradually became lawless. So much so that later at the banquet, the woman took advantage of her favor and became arrogant, causing dissatisfaction from her queen mother, and even he was scolded.
After a dinner, I was full of anger.
The Prince of Yan did not stay overnight with the princess, but went to the main courtyard to sleep alone tonight. He called Fugui: "Go and find out if Shen Wei was the first to pick the fabric today and took the floating brocade."
Fugui was efficient and asked someone about it before going back to report: "Your Majesty, it is indeed the case. The floating brocade is of high value, and it is natural for Master Shen to like it."
King Yan lowered his eyes, a hint of disgust welling up in his heart.
Greed and arrogance make people dislike you.
In Kunyu Courtyard, after seeing off the angry Prince Yan, the princess slowly returned to her room and began to embroider.
Aunt Liu helped the princess to choose the thread and said with disdain, "What a pity for Shen."
The princess held the embroidery needle and said calmly: "This Chen Wei is really stupid - Madam Liu, you can start looking for some beautiful girls. Chen Wei has fallen out of favor, so she must be replaced by a new person."
Madam Liu said respectfully, "Don't worry, Princess. I will do it right away."
King Yan was angry, and for the next five days, he did not go to Chen Wei's Fangfei Garden.
Shen Wei seems to have fallen out of favor.
In the Qixue Pavilion, Liu Ruyan stood alone under the plum tree, her fingers brushing across the dry plum branches.
Her eyes were red, and she was filled with sorrow: "Many men have always been unfaithful and failed beautiful women. Shen and I are in the same boat."
A line of clear tears fell.
The maid Xuemei stood behind Liu Ruyan. Seeing her master being sad again, Xuemei's heart was numb.
What can you do when you have a master like this?
...
“Hahaha, Chen Wei is too greedy. I reminded her, but she still snatched the fabric!” In Huaxiang Courtyard, the chubby Concubine Zhang was eating pork elbow.
When she saw Shen Wei for the first time that day, she thought the girl was really good-looking, so she kindly gave her a reminder.
Too bad it's brainless.
Concubine Zhang wiped the oil stains from the corners of her mouth and said, "After a while, let's go find Chen Wei to play. I'll send her some pork elbows. When she's full, her heart won't ache."
...
In Mingyue Courtyard, Concubine Liu was eating simple meals. Ever since she drove away King Yan that day, her three meals a day have been reduced to the level of a concubine.
But Concubine Liu ate with great relish.
There were steamed buns and vegetables, which were much better than what she ate in the cold palace.
"Master, now that Shen has fallen out of favor, why don't we take the opportunity to kill Shen?" The maid next to him had a sinister look on her face.
Concubine Liu glared at the maid and said unhappily, "No need to do anything."
She didn't want to get involved in the feud in the harem at all. She was completely disappointed with Prince Yan and planned to live a low-key life for the rest of her life.
When Prince Yan ascends the throne in the future, she will not compete for favor with that terrible woman. Concubine Liu only wants to save her own life and that of her child.
That Shen Wei is really stupid, digging her own grave.
Concubine Liu has finally let it go. There's no point in fighting all the time. New people kept coming in. Without Shen Wei, there were still other women.
No one can be favored all his life. It is better to watch the show in the corner, at least you can keep your life.
...
Prince Yan has been in a bad mood these days.
He was a little disgusted with Shen Wei, but after spending many days together, King Yan began to have some feelings for Shen Wei.
He originally thought that after Shen Wei "fell out of favor", she would take the initiative to come to him and admit her mistakes, and King Yan would be able to go with the flow and reconcile with Shen Wei.
Prince Yan could continue to favor her for a while until he completely lost interest in Shen Wei.
But Chen Wei did not take the initiative to admit her mistake and stayed in her Fangfei Garden all day! Don’t go out the front door, don’t step out the back door!
In the study, after finishing his official duties, Prince Yan put down the file and called Fugui to ask, "She hasn't come to admit her mistake yet?"
Fugui scratched his head and said cautiously: “No…How about I remind Master Shen?”
The King of Yan said nothing, which was considered as his agreement.
Fugui immediately stood up and prepared to go to Fangfei Garden to investigate the situation. King Yan suddenly called him and said, "Take another look at how the vegetables I planted are growing."
After not going to Fangfei Garden for five days, King Yan not only missed Chen Wei's health and smile, but also missed his food!
What if the vegetables he planted himself were pulled out by Shen Wei?
"Yes, I'll go ask right away!" Fugui quickened his pace and rushed to Fangfei Garden.
Fugui also misses the vegetables he grows!
He hurried all the way to Fangfei Garden, showing his wealth in a low-key manner without advertising it. He extended his hand and called out to Madam Rong from Fangfei Garden.
Aunt Rong was an old maid carefully selected by Fugui and sent to Fangfei Garden to serve.
"Mr. Fugui, why are you here?" Aunt Rong hurriedly came forward and greeted with a smile.
Fugui and Rong Mama are old acquaintances and are from the same hometown.
