Chapter 521: No one comes to visit for no reason
After she explained this, Pei Shaorong thought about it and seemed to understand.
It was precisely because the people around her set such an example for her that she was influenced in the process of growing up, and subconsciously wanted such a relationship.
But the reality is cruel.
Not to mention the rich and powerful, even ordinary people have to take a concubine if they have a little more money.
There are indeed few like the Chengguo Mansion. There
must be many such loyal men in Dayong. If Mu Hua had not become the prince's concubine, she would still have a chance to find such a man.
Unfortunately... Pei Shaorong did not dare to complain to the emperor, and could only feel sad for her friend.
But the more this happened, the more guilty she felt.
"Arong, don't let your imagination run wild. The prince and you love each other, so why should I interfere? If I really interfere, the prince will not like me, he will definitely not pamper me, and will even ignore me. And my relationship with you will definitely not be the same as before, and my life in the East Palace will be miserable!"
"How can I live like that now? Just live a good life with the prince. If you really feel sorry for me and feel guilty about me, just protect me in the future and don't let me be bullied in the East Palace!"
Pei Shaorong glared at her, "Who dares to bully you?"
"That's hard to say! Anyway, you must be my backer!"
Pei Shaorong couldn't help but stretched out his
hand and tapped her forehead, "If I don't protect you, how can I protect others?" Xu Muhua held her hand and leaned his head on her shoulder, "Arong, don't tell this to the prince. The prince will definitely be unhappy when he hears it. He will think that you don't care about him and want to push him to another woman. If you have such an idea again in the future, think about it from another perspective. If the prince has a brother--"
Pei Shaorong covered her mouth with one hand and glared at her, blushing, not knowing whether it was out of annoyance or shame, "You really dare to say anything!"
She blinked innocently.
Pei Shaorong said helplessly: "Okay, I really surrender to you. I won't mention this matter in the future."
Just like Muhua said, let her be selfish for once! Except for the prince, no matter what Muhua wants, she can give it to her!
Xiaoqing walked in and saw the Crown Princess and Concubine Xu leaning against each other. She was used to it. She even thought in her heart that it was no wonder that the Crown Prince was always jealous of Concubine Xu. The Crown Princess and Concubine Xu were too close and intimate. "Crown Princess, Madam Zheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, sent a visiting card. Does the Crown Princess want to see Madam Zheng?"
Xiaoqing said.
Pei Shaorong was stunned for a moment, then her expression was complicated, "Why did she suddenly send a visiting card to me?"
Madam Zheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, was none other than Sun Xuehe, who had already married in a low-key manner.
Because she had had an unpleasant experience with them before, she married in a low-key manner without a big ceremony. A few familiar people just sent gifts. Of course, they came to congratulate her, but they just sat for a while and left, just as a token of their goodwill for knowing each other.
She herself knew the reason, and she behaved very normally on the wedding day.
But it has been more than half a year since the wedding, and they have not been in touch with each other. It's not just them, but also others.
Even when Mo Ying and Lu Yingzhu got married one after another a few years later, she didn't show up, and she didn't even have a gift! Mo Ying and Lu Yingzhu were confused and annoyed with her, and said that since that was the case, there was no need to contact each other in the future!
Lu Yingzhu married to another place, and the man she married was her cousin. After choosing and choosing, she couldn't find anyone she liked, so she just chose her own cousin. Although it was from another place, it was also a prestigious family in the local area. With the support of the Marquisate behind her, she was not afraid of being bullied.
As for Mo Ying, she married a man from the capital, and her husband was a subordinate that her father liked. Her father also secretly investigated for a long time before he felt at ease to marry his daughter to him.
There are advantages to marrying up, and there are advantages to marrying down.
Mo Ying was a little dissatisfied at first, after all, she was the one who married the worst among her friends. Although she would not compare herself with her friends, she could not help feeling disappointed and uncomfortable.
But after marriage, she did not complain, and it seemed that she had a good relationship with her husband.
So when Sun Xuehe suddenly sent a visiting card, Pei Shaorong felt very strange.
Thinking of the relationship with Sun Xuehe in the past, Pei Shaorong was also a little emotional.
Who would have thought that they were also very good friends in the past? Who could have imagined that one day they would throw away all the feelings they had for so many years just for something like this?
"Muhua, what do you think she meant?"
Xu Muhua shrugged and spread her hands: "Who knows? But since she has sent a visiting card, you are free anyway, so it doesn't hurt to meet her. She is married now, she should not be so bold as to seduce the prince."
Pei Shaorong glared at her immediately after hearing that, stretched out her hand and pointed at her in the air, and said helplessly: "You, you are so outspoken! If people hear such words, even if nothing happened, they will tell others about it!"
"I only said that because there is no one else in the room and we are all family."
Xu Muhua said that it was really difficult to marry into the royal family. You have to think twice before telling the truth, and you don't even have the freedom to speak!
She didn't blink after she finished speaking, staring at Xiaoqing threateningly, and asked grimly: "Xiaoqing, did you hear anything just now?"
Xiaoqing looked confused, "Ah, weren't the Crown Princess and Concubine Xu just talking about the matter of Madam Zheng, the Minister of the Ministry of Rites, delivering the visiting card? Did they talk about anything else? I was distracted just now!"
Xu Muhua raised her eyebrows proudly at Pei Shaorong.
See, she said not to worry.
Pei Shaorong really couldn't do anything with her. She had said it countless times, but she always let it go in one ear and out the other. She was really worried that one day she would say something terrible!
She looked at Xiaoqing and said, "You go and reply in person! Just say that I am free tomorrow."
"Okay, Crown Princess, I will reply right away."
Xu Muhua remembered another serious matter and looked at Pei Shaorong with a smile on her face. The smile on her face was so brilliant that Pei Shaorong immediately became alert.
Muhua smiled like a cunning fox. Maybe she was thinking of something bad again.
"Arong..."
"Just say it if you have something to say!"
She was a little scared!
Xu Muhua came over and said, "It's like this, isn't my elder brother going to the Geng family to propose marriage? I want to give him something. I want to see if there is anything suitable in the warehouse of the East Palace..."
