"Oh? Could it be that some girl from some family really dares to mess around in the palace?"
Madam Hu sighed, "If they really mess up, it would be easy to deal with. I'm just worried that their methods are too sophisticated!"
"The Prime Minister's Sixth Miss once again shone brightly today, captivating all the nobles and princes. During this time, she and Prince Wu Ling were alone for half an incense stick of time before they left one after the other."
"Humph, even though that girl is a concubine's daughter, she's more ambitious than anyone else. She's not simple!"
"That's right. I don't know what's going on, but she's becoming more and more valuable. Today, the Emperor himself praised her as the most beautiful woman!"
The old lady took a sip of tea and said calmly, "I have always felt that the small Wuling Palace is not big enough to accommodate the Sixth Miss of the Lin family. She will not have any conflicts with the Princess."
"No matter how brilliant it is, it's their business. We should just watch the excitement."
Madam Hu nodded. "Yes! Actually, those who covet Prince Wu Ling are not that powerful. I have seen that the prince is truly devoted to the princess, and it doesn't seem like she is just playing around. The princess is also proactive and cheerful. The young couple is living a good life."
The old lady looked very relieved. "As long as you live well, Yu'er can have a real home and live a peaceful life for a few days. Then I, an old woman, can have a clear conscience when I meet the general in the underworld one day!"
Madam Hu looked troubled, "But... there is another problem..."
"who?"
"Princess Anli of Prince Yi's family..."
"That girl has also entered the palace? Why didn't I see her?"
"She came out during the banquet, and her eyes never left the prince, but the princess couldn't see a thing. Sigh!"
The old lady was also helpless. Princess Anli had admired Dugu Yu for a long time. Not many people knew about this, but it was really serious.
Because she was the daughter of Prince Yi, she was destined not to marry Prince Wu Ling, who was powerful and suspected by the emperor. Otherwise, Prince Yi would also be distrusted by the emperor and would have a hard time.
If it weren't for this reason, the old lady would have thought that she and Dugu Yu were quite suitable.
But now, Dugu Yu has already married a princess, so there is no possibility between Princess Anli and Dugu Yu. As a princess, she can't just become a concubine, right?
"The princess is simple-minded and can't see these things. So don't tell her and upset her. Before she gives birth to a young prince for Prince Wu Ling, no other women can appear in this palace!"
Matron Hu nodded, agreeing deeply.
…
On the carriage back to the palace, Dugu Yu asked Qin Qingyao, who was resting her head on his shoulder, "Are you full?"
"I'm full, but I still prefer the food cooked by our chef. It tastes like home!"
Qin Qingyao climbed onto Dugu Yu's lap and sat down. "Husband, I think I ate too much. My stomach feels a little uncomfortable. Can you rub it for me?"
Dugu Yu put his big hand on Qin Qingyao's slightly bulging stomach. It was true that she didn't eat much at home, but she should be full.
Qin Qingyao nestled in Dugu Yu's arms, the carriage swayed, and she fell asleep immediately.
When they arrived at the door of the house, Dugu Yu picked her up and carefully carried her back to the room.
Then I used a warm, wet towel to wipe her hands and face. Everything went smoothly. Except for being a little clumsy and being too cautious to use any force, everything was fine.
After covering her with the quilt and going to take a shower, Dugu Yu's mind was filled with the red figure jumping in front of him and dancing with a sword in the hall.
Qin Qingyao's dance today was very serious, revealing a heroic aura. It was definitely not one-tenth as seductive as the jumping around that day, but many of her moves were really too... hard to describe.
For example, when you lift your foot, you can directly lift the instep of your foot to the side of your ear. Snap your waist and bend your body into a bridge without worrying about breaking your waist.
Dugu Yu felt a little uncomfortable. He didn't blame her for dancing in front of people, but rather blamed those who dared to watch his princess dance for being impolite and calling them lechers!
Dugu Yu tossed and turned in the big wooden barrel until the water had turned cold before coming out and washing his face, which was covered in fine sweat.
That night Dugu Yu had a dream. He dreamed of Qin Qingyao. He dreamed that she was wearing a red gauze dress and dancing by a huge pool, dancing for him alone.
Sometimes it jumps and wags its head and tail like a little rabbit, and sometimes it opens and closes gracefully and charmingly.
The pool was filled with steam and mist, and Qin Qingyao smiled like a fairy.
"Hubby~ Let me help you heal your illness..."
That night Qin Qingyao also had a dream. She dreamed that she was captured by cannibals and her body was trapped tightly. No matter how she struggled, she could not get free.
Moreover, the cannibal leader wanted to eat her thighs, saying that they had more meat, so he had her legs sawed off and put them in a pot.
She was dropped into the cauldron, and the boiling water made her sweat all over. The stupid cannibal didn't have a saw, so he used a big wooden stick as thick as his arm to saw off her legs.
Grind, grind, grind... Grind both legs together, grind, grind...
Dugu Yu had that thing. Compared to being energetic every morning before, this seemed more embarrassing and the traces were harder to erase.
He changed his clothes and gritted his teeth as he ordered Xiao Si, who had taken the clothes to help him 'dispose of the body', "Don't let the princess know. If you dare to tell anyone, I will make you disappear!"
Xiao Si covered his mouth tightly and shook his head violently, almost swearing to the sky.
The first thing Qin Qingyao did after waking up was to touch her legs. They were still there, which felt so good.
After a palace banquet, the love between Prince Wu Ling and his wife was so great that others envied them. Even though it was officially approved, the previous messy rumors completely disappeared.
My lord, I have delicious food, and I have received great praise and rewards from the emperor. Not to mention those rewards, even if I could enter the palace and see the emperor, it would be enough for future generations to brag about it in the family tree for several generations!
Therefore, Fenghuaxueyue is crowded with customers every day, and the threshold is almost trampled down, which has given rise to the business of queuing and reserving seats for others.
Since they couldn't come themselves, they sent a maid named Xiao Si to come early in the morning to reserve a seat and post. There were also scalpers who acted as posters and resold the posts.
Anyway, some people have free time and some have money, so it's a fight between the two.
However, this kind of atmosphere is very bad, so Qin Qingyao posted a notice, explicitly prohibiting the reselling of seats and the grabbing of posts for money.
Scalpers are banned, but you can't do anything about it if they send little servants and maids here. Although those little servants and maids came here on orders, they did read and reply to posts, and some even posted topic posts.
So Qin Qingyao opened a branch, right next to the current store, which also made it easier to transfer posts.
He moved the eldest son to the new store, and at the same time, his huge fan base, those who loved gossip and fun, all moved to the new building.
Then Qin Qingyao bought another building and moved all the posts of those sour scholars who felt their talents were not appreciated there.
In fact, those dignitaries really wanted Qin Qingyao to build a separate building for them, but Qin Qingyao firmly opposed it.
What do you want to do with this building? Rebellion? If you want to discuss important matters of the court, go to the morning court. Why are you here for some romantic affairs?
People’s livelihood issues should be seen by ordinary people of all types. No one should think of being a flower on the top of the mountain!
Then everyone will see that no matter where Fenghuaxueyue opens, there will definitely be a Jin Ge Tie Ma restaurant opposite it.
The streets are filled with the sour smell of the love between King Wu Ling and his wife!
His Royal Highness Prince Duan expressed that he was in a very bad mood about this situation.
"I originally thought that Dugu Yu could help us contain him, or even win over the Qin family, but now it seems that he has been completely subdued by Qin Qingyao."
Lin Xiafeng remained silent. Prince Duan came over and gently put his arm around her shoulders. "What are you thinking about?"
"Maybe I'm overthinking it. I always feel like Princess Wu Ling is targeting me."
Prince Duan thought about it and it seemed to be true.
"Since he has put down his warlike ways and fallen in love with the romantic world, why don't we let him enjoy it to his heart's content?"
"What does this mean, my Lord?"
"Qin Qingyao bullied you, so of course I will help you get revenge! Dugu Yu is a reckless man who spends his days hanging out with men, but now he's lost his way after marrying a woman."
"Tell me, how exciting would it be if he had two, three, four... women in his house?"
Lin Xiafeng, "But even though Qin Qingyao is annoying, Brother Dugu is our friend. If we do that, will it make him unhappy?"
"Besides, he doesn't look like the type to fall in love with every girl he meets."
Prince Duan was obviously jealous. He put his face close to Lin Xiafeng and said a little aggrievedly, "You know your brother Dugu quite well!"
"Don't misunderstand me, Your Majesty. King Wu Ling and I are just friends."
"Of course I know you've always just considered him a friend, but his feelings are all written on his face!"
Lin Xiafeng lowered her head slightly, her cheeks slightly red.
"So, if it were someone else, he might not like them, but there is one person he definitely likes."
"who?"
"Of course it's your fifth sister, who else could it be?"
Lin Manyin, the fifth daughter of the Lin family, is the only daughter in the Lin family who looks like Lin Xiafeng.
Because their father is the same person and their mothers are sisters.
I will omit three thousand words of the melodrama here.
In short, this is the story of a little concubine's daughter who was bullied and trampled into the mud, but who accumulated her strength and made a great breakthrough, became a sensation, rose step by step, and became the mother of the country!
So the heroine’s life experience is not the worst, it can only be worse!
Lin Manyin and Lin Xiafeng are no different from each other as if they were born to the same mother, but Lin Manyin's mother is a fool. She does not stand on the same side as her own sister, but instead helps others to harm Lin Xiafeng's mother in order to win favor.
Lin Manyin also followed suit. When she was a child, in order to curry favor with her elder sister, she bullied Lin Xiafeng more harshly than anyone else.
Lin Xiafeng's mother was wrongly accused, punished, and tortured to death. Lin Manyin and her mother knew that Lin Xiafeng's mother was wronged, but they stood on the side of the eldest lady, causing her to lose her mother at a young age.
With this hatred in mind, one can imagine how miserable Lin Manyin would have been after Lin Xiafeng gained power.
