Who doesn't know that Shen Wei of Fangfei Garden has fallen out of favor?
Zhang Yue gloated over other people's misfortune.
Fortunately, she was rational enough and did not become the prince's concubine. Otherwise, he would definitely become a laughing stock in the palace.
When she reached the gate of Fangfei Garden, Zhang Yue suddenly saw King Yan walking out of the Moon Gate. The dim morning light made the Prince of Yan look particularly handsome.
Zhang Yue was stunned.
Didn’t Shen Wei fall out of favor? Why did the prince come to Fangfei Garden again?
Zhang Yue hid behind the big elm tree and heard King Yan instruct Fugui: "Ask the imperial physician to Fangfei Garden every day to check Weiwei's pulse. She must not like greasy food when she is sick, so ask the kitchen to research some new dishes."
Fugui smiled and said, "I will obey your order. As the one that is dear to the prince's heart, we will naturally serve him well."
After the King of Yan and his servants left, Zhang Yue, who was hiding behind a big tree, looked annoyed and dug his fingernails deeply into his palms.
What's going on? Why is Shen Wei favored again?
...
After Prince Yan left, Shen Wei quickly got up. The Ministry of Internal Affairs sent ten pieces of fine fabric and a lot of exquisite and delicious snacks.
Chen Wei asked Cai Ping to fetch the remaining floating brocade. After making a piece of clothing for Prince Yan, half a piece of fabric was left over.
Shen Wei touched the soft satin and couldn't let it go.
Cai Lian suggested: "Master, how about I use the remaining half piece of floating brocade to make you a set of clothes? The leftovers can be used to make some sachets."
Shen Wei shook her head.
The floating brocade is too valuable. If she wears it and shows off everywhere, it will definitely arouse the princess's suspicion. The princess came from a prominent family and had a child by her side, so Shen Wei couldn't compete with her at all.
Her position is not too stable now, so she cannot bring trouble to herself.
After thinking for a while, Chen Wei told Cai Lian: "Send this half piece of floating brocade out of the palace and find a cloth shop to sell it. Be careful and don't let anyone find out."
Of this piece of glittering brocade, the good half was used to make clothes for Prince Yan, and the remaining half was of a slightly worse color.
Although the quality is slightly lower, it is still valuable and even a small piece can be sold at a very high price.
"Okay, I'll do it right away." Cai Lian understood what he meant. She put away the half piece of cloth and left the palace in a low-key manner.
Shen Wei took a sip of tea and looked into the courtyard, sizing up the servants of Fangfei Garden.
Two young eunuchs were trimming weeds. One was called Jixiang and the other was called Deshun. They came from humble backgrounds but were quite diligent in their work.
Rong Mama has extensive experience and is good at accounting, so Shen Wei handed over her small treasury to her for management.
The two maids are the most loyal. Cai Lian is smart and reliable; Cai Ping is gossipy and good at finding out information.
Shen Wei made use of the expertise of these employees and worked hard to make Fangfeiyuan bigger and stronger.
Cai Lian went out to sell floating brocade, while Cai Ping took a small bag of medicinal herbs and walked into the house to tell Shen Wei: "Master, the newly purchased medicinal herbs have arrived."
Shen Wei said, “Put it in the cupboard and hide it.”
As Cai Ping put the small medicine bag into the secret cupboard, she couldn't help but lower her voice and said, "Master, you are favored by the prince, why do you need to take the contraceptive soup?"
Ever since she consummated her marriage with Prince Yan, Shen Wei would drink contraceptive soup every second day, without fail. The small medicine bag that Caiping had just brought back contained the medicinal ingredients for the contraceptive soup.
Caiping couldn't understand. If she had a child, wouldn't her master's position in the palace be more secure?
Shen Wei shook her head: "You don't understand, having a child also requires the right time."
Her current body is simply not suitable for childbearing. If you have a weak constitution, you will have a difficult delivery and will be left with ugly stretch marks.
Men are creatures who say one thing and mean another.
He says he loves you, but when he sees your ugly, shriveled body, he becomes disgusted and turns away to find other women to have sex with.
Shen Wei now just wants to take care of her body.
Caiping put the new ingredients for the contraceptive soup into the cupboard, and secretly took out the dregs of the previous contraceptive soup and poured them into the pile of weeds outside Fangfei Garden.
Civet cats often appear in that patch of weeds, and almost no one visits it. Cai Ping poured out the medicine residue and left, thinking she had done it perfectly, but she didn't know that a figure was secretly following her.
Zhang Yue quietly crawled into the weeds, turned over the soil, and saw the remaining drug residue inside.
Zhang Yue frowned. The medicine residue smelled weird. "Why are you so secretive about pouring out the residue? Is there something wrong with the medicine?"
She collected the medicine residue and left quietly, planning to ask the doctor when she had time. If she really found out Shen Wei's mistakes, Zhang Yue would definitely take the opportunity to add insult to injury.
If you ask yourself honestly, there is actually no conflict between Zhang Yue and Shen Wei.
But Zhang Yue was very narrow-minded. She felt very uncomfortable when she saw Chen Wei enjoying such great success.
We agreed to be maids together, but you secretly became the favored one. Zhang Yue was very unwilling to accept this.
