"Miss, Li Yunrou and Yang Jiaoxue are here."
Early in the morning, Xu Wanyan heard these unpleasant names.
"Just say I'm not at home."
Qiao Yun shook her head. "It's too late. They just barged in."
Xu Wanyan looked at her with resentment, and she actually let those people in.
Before she could say anything, Yang Jiaoxue's voice could be heard from outside, "Xu Wanyan, your sister didn't inform us about her marriage. Could it be that you don't plan to inform us either?"
"I really didn't plan to inform you, and we're not familiar with each other." Xu Wanyan couldn't help but complain in her heart.
However, he remained calm. "We've rarely met before, so I didn't expect you to come."
Yang Jiaoxue and the others' expressions changed, and they immediately said sarcastically, "Oh, you're going to marry Prince Chen, and your temper is really different from before."
After she finished speaking, she didn't care about Xu Wanyan's expression and just found a stool to sit down. Seeing this, the others also sat down.
"Qiao Yun, please serve tea to the ladies."
Hearing this, Yang Jiaoxue's expression improved a lot, "That's more like it."
Xu Wanyan rolled her eyes at her and said with a smile, "Miss Yang, Miss Li, you must have come here today to add some makeup to me."
Hearing this, everyone's expression changed again.
How could they possibly come to add makeup?
They came to see the joke.
However, since Xu Wanyan had already said it, it seemed a bit unreasonable for them not to come up with anything.
Thinking of this, some of them began to pull out the hairpins on their heads.
Xu Wanyan was quick to pick up the most valuable one and said, "This one is good. I like this one. Thank you, Miss Chen."
Before Miss Chen could react, Xu Wanyan had already taken the hairpin and handed it to Leng Ning.
"You..., Xu Wanyan, did I say I wanted to give you that one?"
Xu Wanyan looked at her angry look and couldn't help but wonder: "Why? Miss Chen, you can't bear it?"
At this point, her eyes were slightly red. "Miss Chen, you are not looking down on me, are you? Although I married Prince Chen, I am still the Second Miss Xu that you look down on, right?"
"you......"
Originally, Miss Chen was planning to admit that she looked down on Xu Wanyan, but the figure of Nanny Wei at the corner made her take back what she was about to say.
"How could that be? In a few days, you will marry Prince Chen and become his consort. How could I look down on you? If I looked down on you, we wouldn't have come to see you today."
"Yes, yes, yes."
Others followed suit.
Xu Wanyan was delighted, "Thank you then."
"Ling Ning, put away the makeup given by the ladies."
As soon as these words were spoken, the ladies felt as if they were being forced to do something. They originally didn't want to take it, or wanted to take something worthless at random, but now they had no choice but to hand over the valuable things in their hands.
Amidst Xu Wanyan's smiling face, the resentment of these noble ladies became somewhat more apparent.
"Ling Ning, sell these for silver and give it to the soldiers at the border."
"Yes, miss."
After saying that, Leng Ning turned around and walked out.
"You....., Xu Wanyan, don't go too far."
"What's wrong? The extra makeup the ladies gave me, I want to give it to the soldiers at the border to thank them for guarding the border and protecting us, isn't that okay?"
Xu Wanyan looked so innocent that they were so angry that they were speechless.
Yang Jiaoxue glanced at Xu Wanyan coldly, then said to everyone, "Sisters, what Second Miss Xu has done is truly heartwarming. She cares so much about the soldiers at the border, and we should support her. It's worth it if our things can contribute something to them."
After hearing what Yang Jiaoxue said, the expressions of the others looked much better.
"Sister Jiaoxue is right. It's all worth it to be able to bring warmth to the soldiers at the border."
"Yes, sister Jiaoxue is still insightful."
“…”
Qiao Yun looked at these women speechlessly. It was clearly her young lady who proposed this matter, but it turned out to be Yang Jiaoxue's credit.
"Sister Wanyan, we came to see you today mainly to tell you something."
Yang Jiaoxue looked at Xu Wanyan seriously and sympathetically.
"Yes, yes, I have something to tell you."
Xu Wanyan looked bewildered. "What do you want to talk about?"
Yang Jiaoxue bit her lip, her eyes dodged, and she hesitated several times without opening her mouth.
Seeing this, Xu Wanyan pretended to be anxious, "Sister Yang, please tell me, you are driving me crazy."
Seeing that Xu Wanyan's anxiety didn't seem fake, Yang Jiaoxue finally spoke up, "Sister Wanyan, we're not trying to scare you, but Prince Chen...is not someone you can easily get along with."
After these words were spoken, Xu Wanyan's face became even more confused.
"Yes, Sister Wanyan, we are like sisters to Wanqing, so we can't bear to see you jump into the fire pit, so we came to tell you."
"Uh-huh."
The others nodded.
"What is it?"
Xu Wanyan was a little impatient.
"Yun Rou, tell Sister Wan Yan that although you two had some unpleasantness before, the current situation is much more serious. You should be magnanimous and take this opportunity to make peace with Sister Wan Yan."
Li Yunrou nodded, watching Xu Wanyan reflect on her mistakes. "Sister Wanyan, I've always regretted the unpleasantness we had before. Today, there's something I must tell you."
"Go ahead."
Xu Wanyan was really curious, why were they so hesitant to speak?
If you say it's for her own good, she absolutely won't believe it.
Li Yunrou took a deep breath, as if she had made a great decision, and said, "Sister Wanyan, Prince Chen is not a good man."
"Why?"
"You rarely go out, so I'm afraid you don't know. King Chen is very tyrannical. I heard that he can defeat a hundred people on the battlefield alone and kill many people by himself."
"Hmmmm."
The others nodded as well, staring at Xu Wanyan's expression.
Xu Wanyan smiled and said, "Isn't this a good thing? He is so powerful that he will surely terrify the enemy. This is how we can protect our country."
After hearing this, everyone's face suddenly turned bad.
"You only know one side of the story. He developed a bloodthirsty nature on the battlefield. Can he be better after returning?"
"Yes, last time a minister sent him a beauty, but I heard that she was tortured to death before the end of the day."
"I've heard that too. Another time, the prince saw how hard he was working and found two women to serve him, but he also tortured and killed them."
Hearing this, Xu Wanyan showed a frightened look on her face, "Is it true?"
Everyone nodded in unison, "Of course it's true."
Xu Wanyan looked at them pitifully, "Where did you hear that?"
Everyone did not doubt him. After thinking for a while, they said, "What was reported from the palace must be true."
Xu Wanyan fell silent. Whatever came out of the palace was most likely related to the prince.
