Zhao Shu sneered. Of course, she dared not say more. As a concubine of Prince Yong, she had an affair with Prince Duan. If she were to speak out, she would die anyway. At least she could live if she was sold off.
"I remember there are singing girls in the manor who are skilled at drum dancing and playing the guzheng. Go and fetch them." Zhao Shu walked back and forth in the courtyard, digesting her food.
Before long, Xiao Guozi brought the women over. Zhao Shu glanced at them but couldn't remember their names. One loved to wear white, like a cloud floating in the sky, while the other loved to wear red, her red dress like fire. Both were stunningly beautiful, their beauty beyond compare. No matter where they were, as long as they weren't mentally unstable, they would definitely have a good future. Of course, there were concubines everywhere in the Prince Yong's mansion, and beauties were everywhere. If they were placed in a crowd, they would be ordinary.
The two men bowed to Zhao Shu. "This servant greets the Princess."
"Yes, no need for formalities. You are both beautiful and charming, and even the king smiles at your beauty. You are indeed extremely beautiful. I, the princess, cannot bear to see your beauty go to waste. I would like to give you both a future. Would you be willing?" Zhao Shu sat down and said to the two of them.

Make sure to make it clear that these two beauties are true national beauties that the Yongwang’s residence has gone through great lengths to find, and are specially presented to the Ningguo Marquis. I hope the Marquis will treat them well.”
The two beauties were immediately delighted upon hearing this. The Marquis of Ningguo, who commanded 150,000 iron cavalry, was a figure even more powerful and influential than a prince.
If one can enter the Ningguo Marquis's mansion and gain the Marquis's favor, one can send more money to one's parents, and one's younger siblings' lives will also be better.
When Xiao Guozi returned to report to Zhao Shu after delivering the person to the Ningguo Marquis's residence, he said, "Princess, the Ningguo Marquis's wife fainted on the spot."
Zhao Shu listened in silence. They were all women, and she didn't really want to make things difficult for them. But wouldn't it have been better if you had just let your son marry that woman earlier?
