Feixue Garden is a dilapidated courtyard located in the northwest corner of the entire Prince's Mansion. To get from there to Yunmei Garden, where Consort Duan now lives, one has to pass through the entire Prince's Mansion.
The Prince's Mansion was extremely large; it took almost half an hour to walk from the northwest corner to Yunmei Garden.
At this time, the servants in the Prince's mansion had already gotten up and were cleaning. Since Consort Duan moved to Prince An's mansion, the once quiet mansion had suddenly become lively, with servants, maids, and nannies coming and going.
Many people were secretly observing the "princess" who was walking gracefully with the help of her maid.
She was as delicate as a willow swaying in the breeze, truly a sickly beauty.
The princess was forced to kneel by the prince as soon as she entered the mansion. Later, she was assassinated and fell into a coma for three days. After waking up, she developed a high fever and fainted again for two days. She was only able to get up today, so most people in the mansion have never seen her.
I've only heard that this eldest daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's mansion always dresses extravagantly and wears heavy makeup, like a peacock in heat all the time. She's definitely not pretty at all.
So when Zhu Yu came out, everyone's eyes naturally fell on him.
Upon closer inspection, it was nothing like the rumors that made him so unpleasant.
The princess had skin as smooth as cream, fair cheeks like snow, delicate eyebrows like painted strokes, and a pair of phoenix eyes as clear as autumn water. Her small nose was high and straight, and her lips were lightly rouged. She was tall and slender, with a waist so thin it could be encircled by one hand.
However, she exuded a sense of aloofness and indifference, yet it was precisely because of her overall demeanor that she gave people the feeling of a beautiful ice flower.
In addition to her overall noble air, it's likely that there wouldn't be another person like her in the entire capital city.
Looking at it this way, even Miss Ren Yong'an, who is known as the most beautiful woman in Shengjing, would probably pale in comparison to this princess.
Several people were so captivated by her beauty that two maids couldn't help but whisper, "She's so beautiful."
"Yes, I never expected the princess to be so beautiful. I had heard people say that the princess was plain-looking, but it turns out that you can't just listen to hearsay."
"Yes, yes, those people must be jealous of the princess's beauty. If this is what they call being ugly, then we can't even look at her. My God, the princess is so beautiful."
Zhu Yu naturally heard these words as well. He lowered his head slightly and saw that the bracelet on his right wrist was emitting a faint warmth, and his score had actually decreased by three points.
It reached 867 points.
Zhu Yu had a sudden inspiration. That's right! If Li Feng had to think of ways to praise him every day, she would be exhausted. Besides, there was this fat woman, a major weapon of mass destruction, by her side. Li Feng would be exhausted and lose ten points, but the fat woman could instantly add three or five points to his score with a few well-placed actions.
Lu Xiaoyun had a change of heart and lifted his confinement. It would be better for him to go out more every day. With so many people in the mansion now, everyone could say a few kind words each day. In this way, it wouldn't be long before he could get his body back.
He was truly infuriated by that woman; how could he not even understand such a simple principle?
But then he realized that he was now in Lu Xiaoyun's body, and it wouldn't be easy for him to gain the approval and praise of everyone in the palace.
She was indeed outstanding in appearance, but he knew that this broken bracelet meant the same words would only be effective the first time.
Zhu Yu walked slowly, pondering as he went, wondering what method he could use to make them willingly praise him.
"Li Feng, why are you out serving people?" Zhu Yu stopped and asked, watching Li Feng being helped towards the front hall.
Li Feng smiled sweetly: "Of course it was Miss who saved me and bought me. I am happy to serve you, Miss."
"What else?"
Li Feng immediately wore a bitter expression: "Of course it's for the money. My family is poor. I used to have a younger brother, but unfortunately, our hometown suffered a famine and he starved to death that year. I have to send my monthly allowance home now so my parents can save up the money and get my brother a wife after the New Year."
Yes, those people who serve others are only doing so for money.
Then all he needs to do is use money to buy them to say good things about him, right?
This is a win-win situation.
Thinking of this, Zhu Yu became angry again. He, the fourth prince of the Great Zhou Dynasty, known as the "Number One Demon King of Shengjing," was now not only penniless, but also reduced to having his little maid beg for food from Lu Xiaoyun on his behalf.
He never imagined that one day he would be penniless!
Just think of those huge chests of gold and silver jewelry, house deeds and land deeds in the study.
Just think about the several thousand taels of silver he casually tossed into the drawer of his study.
All of this now belongs to Lu Xiaoyun.
Zhu Yu felt a sharp pain in his heart.
He looked all over and found that apart from the two obviously cheap hairpins on his head, there were only a pair of pearl earrings that weren't worth much.
"Fine," Zhu Yu said, taking off two pearl earrings and handing them to Li Feng. "Go and give these two earrings to them, and have them each say ten nice things to me."
These earrings aren't worth much, but their unique design makes them worth about half a tael or a tael of silver at a pawnshop.
Li Feng: "..."
Why is Miss always acting so strangely? How much does she enjoy hearing others say good things about her?
Could it be that she is often scolded by the Prince and Consort Duan, so she feels uncomfortable and wants to hear more nice words?
Miss, how come your mental resilience is so poor?
Haven't you always been self-willed, letting people say whatever they want?
Seeing Li Feng's state, Zhu Yu was displeased, and his eyes flashed with a cold light: "Hurry up and go!"
Li Feng was startled. Since her injury, her mistress's personality had changed drastically. She always had a cold expression and spoke less and less. Like now, it seemed she would kill her if she didn't listen to her.
The two maids were indeed delighted to receive the pearl earrings, and taking advantage of the fact that no one was paying attention, they went up to Zhu Yu and showered him with compliments.
Zhu Yu's mood immediately improved, after all, the bracelet on his wrist was getting hot, it seemed that his score had been reduced by quite a bit again.
This is indeed a good method.
He stroked the bracelet absently.
After each of them said ten kind words, Zhu Yu nodded in satisfaction: "Yes, go ahead. Remember to send more people to Feixue Garden tomorrow and the day after. If they speak well, I, the Princess Consort, will reward them."
The two maids happily replied, "Your Highness, if there are any good things like this in the future, just give the order, and we'll make sure to handle it perfectly for you."
After all, money can come in just by saying a few words; only a fool wouldn't want such a good thing.
Zhu Yu was very satisfied and even showed a rare smile.
Li Feng looked miserable: "Miss, we don't have any money on us."
Zhu Yu said, "It's alright, I have a way."
"Miss, do you have any ideas?"
There is silver in the study.
"Ah!" Li Feng's face turned deathly pale with fright. Seeing the crowd around her, she quickly lowered her voice and said, "Miss, you wouldn't be thinking of stealing the silver from the Prince's study, would you? Miss, it's not worth it for a few kind words. If you get caught, you'll be beaten to death. If you want to hear kind words, I'll learn them."
