"My queen, it's time to eat...My queen?"
Yun Xuan called her several times before Jiang Muyu came back to her senses, "Well...Okay, you can leave first."
"Yes." Yun Xuan bowed and walked out.
Jiang Muyu pinched her brows and felt her head buzzing. A whole day had passed and she still hadn't come to her senses.
She couldn't understand why such a fantastic thing actually happened to her - she was transported into a book!
She was transported to an unfinished sweet and cute online novel. She only remembered that she was lying on a hospital bed reading the novel. When she saw the words "serializing" after the 521st chapter, she went to sleep with a curse. Who knew that when she woke up, she would end up in this hellhole and become the heroine's future mother-in-law!
She felt a headache when she thought about the fate of this evil mother-in-law in the book.
The heroine in a group-loving novel is a person who is loved by everyone. Any character that stands in her way can be called a stepping stone, and Jiang Muyu is just such a small "stone".
Before the heroine married into the palace, her mother-in-law Jiang Muyu disliked her because of some things, so she used all kinds of dirty means to prevent her from being with the hero, such as kidnapping, poisoning, framing... In short, she used every possible means. However, the heroine's aura was so strong that she was saved from danger every time.
With the hero's powerful operation, the heroine was married into the palace with the emperor's blessing, and her mother-in-law Jiang Muyu made things difficult for her.
Finally, one time, after she almost caused the heroine to have a miscarriage, the hero could no longer tolerate it and reported her crimes to the emperor. He directly removed her from the family tree, demoted her to a commoner, and imprisoned her in a women's prison, where she was tortured into a madman.
Thinking of this, Jiang Muyu's teeth couldn't help but tremble.
No, no, she can't go on like this, she must change her fate!
At worst, she could just stay away from the male and female protagonists and never have any contact with them again... But... the male protagonist is her son, how can she stay away from him? Should she divorce the prince first?
Just as she was thinking about it, Yun Xuan came in again, bowed, handed over something, and said, "Madam, someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion just delivered the invitation."
"Invitation? What invitation?" she asked as she took the red invitation. At first glance at the big gold-stamped "囍" character on it, there was nothing she didn't understand.
"Zhao Jichang, Shen Ruxue..."
She frowned slightly. Shen Ruxue in the book was the sister of the heroine Shen Qingxi.
The Shen family was a local merchant family, according to the ancient class system of "scholars, farmers, merchants and artisans". Logically speaking, Shen Qingxi had no qualifications to marry into the royal palace with her family background.
But her elder sister Shen Ruxue was very ambitious and married into the Prime Minister's residence, and the entire Shen family benefited from it.
In addition, Shen Qingxi's brother later became the top scorer in the imperial examination, and the Shen family instantly became the most popular family in Beijing.
Unexpectedly, she just came here and caught up with Shen Ruxue's wedding. This means that the heroine and her family will soon go to Beijing.
She estimated that the novel should have just reached a few chapters now. The heroine is six years old and lives in Hangzhou. At this time, her elder sister is getting married and she goes to Beijing for the first time. It is also at this time that she meets the eight-year-old hero.
Jiang Muyu pinched her brows again. Should she stop the hero and heroine from meeting?
While she was thinking about it, she heard Yun Xuan say, "My queen, the prince is back."
As soon as she finished speaking, she looked up suddenly and saw someone walking in through the door.
The tall and straight man was wearing a raven-green straight-collared robe with intricate embroidery. Around his waist was a wide belt with a moon-white auspicious cloud pattern, on which hung a piece of extremely fine white jade.
Further up, there is a handsome face that is dazzlingly good-looking, with sharp eyebrows, starry eyes, a high nose, thin and moist lips, and facial lines that are soft yet sharp. Every stroke seems to have been carefully drawn by the Creator.
In short, she has fair skin, beautiful face and long legs from head to toe, and is even more beautiful than modern male stars.
The person who came was her adopted husband, Prince Rui Liang Qingchen.
Although she knew that the book mentioned that the hero's father, Prince Rui, was once the most handsome man in the capital, and the hero's appearance was even better than his father's. She had read many online articles, but the handsome men mentioned in the book were not as shocking as what she saw with her own eyes.
Look, she was stunned. She was already thinking, why not just not get a divorce...
"Zhao Zhao?" Liang Qingchen raised his hand and waved it in front of her eyes.
Only then did she come back to her senses, subconsciously touched the corner of her lips, and said to herself: Fortunately, I didn't drool.
"What's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Liang Qingchen sat down beside her, held her little hand and placed it on his lap.
"No...it's okay." She quickly shook his hand off and tidied up her hair.
When she came through yesterday, Liang Qingchen was not there. Although she retained the original owner's memory, this was their first meeting, and she was still a little uncomfortable holding hands.
Liang Qingchen glanced at her but didn't say anything. Seeing that the food on the table seemed untouched, he said, "Not to your liking? Let it cool down. Let the kitchen cook it again."
"Yes." Yun Xuan quickly asked someone to remove all the dishes on the table.
Jiang Muyu thought it was a waste and quickly said, "No, no, you can still eat it if you heat it up."
Liang Qingchen was startled for a moment, then turned to look at her, "What's wrong with you today?"
"I..." Jiang Muyu swallowed her saliva and thought, it's over. She almost forgot that she is now a princess. Before getting married, she was the legitimate daughter of the Zhen'an Marquis Mansion. She has been living a life of luxury since she was a child. How could she possibly feel sorry for such a small thing?
Yun Xuan was also stunned, "This..."
Jiang Muyu waved his hands and said, "Let's withdraw."
"Yes." After receiving the order, the maid who had just come in dared to step forward and take all the dishes away.
After this, she quickly changed the subject and asked, "Husband, why are you free to come here today?"
She remembered that the prince should be very busy, right? In the middle of the day, he had nothing to do?
Liang Qingchen was stunned again at this moment. He looked at her in astonishment, blinking, and blinking again.
The woman in front of him was still as pretty as ever, with a thin, pointed face, willow-shaped eyebrows, almond-shaped eyes, a cherry-shaped mouth, and skin as delicate and smooth as translucent white porcelain. You couldn't tell that she had given birth to two children.
What a ghost! In the past, Jiang Muyu always called him Prince like everyone else. After being married for many years, this was the first time he heard the word "husband" from her mouth.
Jiang Muyu herself didn't notice anything wrong and didn't hear his answer, so she called out again, "Husband?"
"Ah? Yes." Liang Qingchen was sure that he had heard correctly this time. He smacked his lips and said, "I just met my father-in-law after the morning court. He invited us back to the Marquis' Mansion for dinner. We can pick up Tangtang on the way."
Jiang Muyu then remembered that she had a three-year-old daughter, who had been taken to the Marquis' Mansion by her mother to play these days.
She nodded and said, "I don't have anything to do this afternoon, so I'll go back to the Marquis' Mansion later."
"Yeah." He nodded, turned his head and saw a red invitation on the table, and asked, "Has the wedding invitation from the Prime Minister's Mansion arrived?"
"It was just delivered...how do you know it's from the Prime Minister's Mansion?" Jiang Muyu wondered, he didn't even open it.
Liang Qingchen said, "I heard a rumor a while ago that the second son of the Prime Minister's Mansion fell in love with a merchant's daughter and insisted on marrying her, even going so far as to starve her to death, which made the Prime Minister's wife agree. Look, when he was in court today, I saw that the Prime Minister's hair had become thinner again."
Jiang Muyu couldn't help laughing. She knew that the prime minister and Prince Rui in the book had always been at odds with each other, because when Prince Rui was still a prince, he was tricked by the prime minister who was then the assistant minister of the Ministry of Revenue, and they had been at odds ever since.
Liang Qingchen was stunned again. What the hell, Zhao Zhao wasn't acting like a decent person today?
