Chapter 351 Yixiu 29
Not long after, the two newlyweds were carried in two pink sedans and silently entered the backyard of Prince Yong's Mansion.
The newcomers to the mansion this time were just as Fu Jin had said, one well-fed and the other well-groomed.
Of course, it only looks that way.
They were both about fifteen or sixteen years old. Feng was gentle and quiet, with soft features on her round face. Her big round eyes made her look bright and cheerful. She looked like a generous girl.
As for Fei, one could tell how beautiful she was just by looking at the fact that she was favored by Yinzhen for three consecutive days right after she entered the mansion.
Rong Chang's thin eyebrows were slightly raised, and his crescent-shaped eyes made him look incredibly beautiful when he smiled. His figure wasn't the usual thin and slim figure of today, but rather more voluptuous and sexy. Coupled with his humble background, he was more open-minded in bed than others, but this was something he kept to himself.
Rouze was very interesting in arranging these two people. She sent the more beautiful Fei to Qi's Wangyue Pavilion, and stuffed the calmer Feng into the room of the younger concubine.
The result was that on the third day when paying her respects to the concubine, Nian could no longer control herself and stabbed Fei in the face.
Moreover, later on, Nian Shilan blatantly pulled people from Wangyue Pavilion and casually made up an excuse of being unwell to call Yinzhen away from Fei Yunyan.
The east is really bustling now.
Yixiu took a small watering can from Xiuxia and began watering the small flowerbed in her yard. Jianqiu followed behind, holding a red lacquer tray with a pattern of eight treasures and a pair of bamboo scissors.
"Did the prince go to Laiyi Hall today?"
"Yes, I heard that she met Fei Gege on the way to admire the flowers. She was originally going to the Moon Viewing Pavilion, but unfortunately, she ran into Songzhi running out of the Yitang Hall in a panic. She said that Concubine Nian was unwell and was about to go see a doctor."
Jianqiu lowered her hand slightly to allow Bianyixiu to pick up the bamboo scissors on the tray, and Xiuxia on the other side took the empty watering can in time.
"Nian is so quick to imitate others. Everything that Fu Jin had snatched away from her before, she has now snatched back from Fei Gege."
Yixiu spoke casually as she carefully picked a few roses from the flower garden. There were the pink-white Maple Leaf Catkins, the light pink Cloud Steaming Mist, and the light green Spring Water Green Waves. They were all elegant and otherworldly varieties, with crystal dewdrops hanging on them, making them indescribably fresh and lively.
Xiu Xia on the other side went to the other side to pick some pine branches, asparagus fern and rattan for matching.
The three of them turned and entered the renovated west wing. The three rooms were connected by moon-shaped doors. Now that autumn had arrived, two layers of plain gauze curtains were hung on either side, one a fragrant autumn hue, the other a lush green. The combination of these curtains conveyed autumnal hues without seeming melancholy. There were also beaded curtains on either side, not made of pearls or jade, but dyed with grass beads, giving off a faint herbal fragrance.
The hall held a five-panel embroidered landscape screen, above which sat a huanghuali Arhat couch. A palm-sized celadon incense burner sat on a central table. Four purple bamboo armchairs flanked each other, each with a matching footrest and a matching tea set on a high table.
Yixiu did not stop, but turned and went to the side room on the right, walked around the four screens with flowers and birds as partitions, and sat on the chaise longue by the window. Jianqiu hurriedly placed the plate with flowers on the small table beside it.
"Go and fetch that woven rattan basket, and the azure-glazed jade vase that the prince gave you as a reward."
Jianqiu hurriedly turned around to get the flower basket, and Xiuxia followed behind holding the jade huchun vase.
Yixiu had already divided the flowers at this moment, and took the bottle and decorated it to her liking, asking:
"What about Feng Gege? Why hasn't she been active?"
Xiu Xia took two steps closer and replied, "Feng Gege seems scared. Although Concubine Jin has been in poor health these days, she has never forgotten to teach Feng Gege the rules. I heard that unless the prince is around, she has to get up before dawn every day and go to the main hall to observe the rules."
"Concubine Nian is becoming increasingly open about her affairs. She's found fault with almost everyone in the mansion. It's truly pitiful that Princess Feng, despite having a mediocre family background, was assigned to the ceremonial hall."
Jianqiu placed the flower basket Yixiu had prepared by the window and sighed after hearing Xiuxia's words. After all, Concubine Nian had shown no respect for her own Concubine, and since she disliked Concubine Nian, she naturally felt a superficial sympathy for Feng Gege, who had been bullied like this.
"That's totally wrong. Who said our Concubine Nian only knows how to offend people? Doesn't she get along well with Qi Yuebin from Wangyue Pavilion? Especially since both of them have new people joining their courtyards. I noticed that when we paid our respects last time, Concubine Nian was much nicer to Qi Gege."
"Yes, I don't know how Qi Gege caught the eye of Concubine Nian. They have such different personalities, but they can actually get along well."
Jianqiu was with them that day, and after thinking about it, she couldn't help but nod.
Xiuxia, who had been gathering information year-round, was reminded of Jianqiu's words and asked tentatively, "It's not without reason. Didn't the Qi Gege family also have military commanders?"
"Good girl, you have mastered it now."
Yixiu pointed at Xiuxia from a distance, holding a maple leaf and reed catkin. She smiled and said, "But it's not just about this. The important thing is that someone has their own agenda. Just wait and see. This farce won't be long before it's over."
After arranging the last flower, Yixiu looked at her masterpiece with satisfaction and placed it on the desk next to the bookshelf with her own hands.
The fact turned out to be just as Yixiu had expected. Just as October began, Feigege had obviously become the lackey of the Nian Concubine.
Moreover, her nature was even worse than Li's. Yinzhen would give up on her after being attached to her for a few days, and would only visit her occasionally when he remembered to do so.
As a result, Fei Yunyan did not dare to offend the Nian family. She acted like a yes-man. Although she was in Wangyue Pavilion, she would go to Laiyi Hall every day to curry favor with Nian Shilan.
The relationship between Qi and Concubine Nian also became more and more harmonious. In the past, apart from the prince, only Qi Yuebin could get her good face.
However, this is also inseparable from Qi Gege's lack of favor. Even now, the sporadic favor is because Fei Gege lives in Wangyue Pavilion, and the prince only remembers her when he occasionally meets her.
This rare grace, like agar-agar dew, brought a little life back to the dead woman.
"Zigge, would you like to come over to my place today?"
Nian Shilan smiled and extended an invitation to Qi, who was standing behind her. Seeing that she accepted the invitation with a smile, she showed a satisfied smile on her face. With Qi's reminders these days, Nian Concubine Jin rarely got humiliated by Concubine Jin, which made her very proud and she relied on Qi even more.
It's just that the other party doesn't like to go out much and sometimes refuses her invitations, which makes Nian Shilan a little dissatisfied. Unfortunately, she really lacks such a shrewd helper around her now, so she has to force herself to "be polite to the wise."
