Chapter 41: The General with No Heir VS the Delicate Concubine



Chi Yunzhi bowed gratefully to Princess Wuyang and was helped up by her.

Her hair was covered with pearls and jade, shining brightly. She was the most beautiful among all the women. Seeing the novel and exquisite jewelry on her head, everyone couldn't help but praise her.

Princess Wuyang reached out and stroked her hairpin, looking quite proud.

Princess Muyang knew at first glance that this was Chi Yunzhi's design.

She felt a little jealous and looked at Chi Yunzhi with resentment.

Chi Yunzhi couldn't stand others looking at her like that, especially women.

"Princess, I have to work hard to make a living." Chi Yunzhi smiled bitterly.

Princess Muyang thought about it and agreed.

People open their doors to do business, she can't cut off their source of income, right?

All the ladies stood up and saluted.

"The princess's hair covering is so beautiful! Is it from the Treasure Pavilion?" A young lady came forward and asked confidently.

"This set of jewelry of mine comes from Baoyun Pavilion." Princess Wuyang raised her chin proudly.

"I didn't expect my sister to have such talent. I didn't realize it before." Chi Miaoyan smiled softly with her hands covering her lips.

This is because Chi Yunzhi is empty-headed and has no knowledge of music, chess, calligraphy or painting.

If someone didn't know the situation, they would think it was a joke between two sisters.

"There are many things that sister hasn't noticed. When my shop Yinxianglou opens next month, sister must come to support it." Chi Yunzhi's calmness made Chi Miaoyan clench her handkerchief tightly.

"Miaoyan, your sister is really extraordinary! I really like the jewelry she designed." Princess Wuyang looked down on such lowly things as concubines' daughters.

Although she liked the things designed by Chi Yunzhi, she could not completely accept her identity.

She likes Chi Miaoyan more than Chi Yunzhi.

In the past, Chi Yunzhi was most afraid that others would say that she was an embroidered pillow and a straw bag, and she would explode at the slightest provocation.

Now Chi Miaoyan wanted to use the same trick again, but she didn't expect Chi Yunzhi to not accept her trick at all, nor was she as bad-tempered as before and would hit anyone.

The change was so great that even she was surprised.

Princess Wuyang took Chi Miaoyan around the venue, like a colorful butterfly.

Princess Muyang promised her eldest brother to take good care of Chi Yunzhi, so she stayed with her all the time.

Every banquet is a small meeting.

At this moment, Princess Muyang had already pulled Chi Yunzhi to watch.

"My brother is already past the age of twenty, a few years older than the Marquis of Zhenyuan, but he doesn't even have a girl he likes. My mother is starting to get worried."

"What do you think of that one? The daughter of Prince Anchang, Princess Baochang. The one wearing a light blue double-breasted skirt." Chi Yunzhi looked in the direction of her description. She was sitting alone at the stone table, quietly admiring a column of peony flowers, her face calm and elegant.

"The most important thing is whether your brother likes it, right?" Chi Yunzhi didn't dare to say anything careless, for fear of disrupting other people's arrangements.

The young ladies were chatting and laughing in groups of three or four, and the ladies were doing the same.

Princess Rui is the protagonist of today. She is dressed elegantly and is extraordinarily beautiful. She is chatting about family matters with the wife of the Duke of Rong.

Unexpectedly, he saw his daughter coming over with a girl. Although she looked unstable, she had a bright smile on her face. When he heard the lady next to her praising his daughter, he was very happy.

Princess Wuyang brought Chi Miaoyan to Princess Rui and introduced her in detail.

Princess Rui's gaze fell on Chi Miaoyan, with a sense of oppression from a superior.

Although Chi Miaoyan was delighted to catch the eye of Princess Rui, she felt a little breathless under such pressure.

Fortunately, Princess Rui withdrew her gaze. Chi Miaoyan suddenly felt her whole body lighten and breathed a sigh of relief.

"You are so old and still have not behaved properly. You can be promised to someone else in another year." Princess Rui poked Princess Wuyang's forehead and said angrily.

"I won't marry. No matter how old I am, I am still mother's daughter, right?" Princess Wuyang said with a bright smile.

These words touched Princess Rui's heart, and her eyes were full of smiles.

But Chi Miaoyan has become invisible at this moment.

Princess Wuyang likes the hustle and bustle, but doesn't like dealing with the ladies. After she finished speaking, she pulled Chi Miaoyan away.

"This Miss Chi is a well-mannered woman with good looks. I wonder if she is married?" The lady of the Duke of Rong asked quietly.

The eldest son in the family is still unmarried, and she thinks the girl just now is really good.

"Her? I advise you to forget it. The Chi family is not a clear-headed family." Princess Rui's words made Lady Rongguo give up the idea.

No one wants to be involved with in-laws who are confused, as it will definitely lead to a mess in the future.

In the front yard, Song Tingyue, Zhang Rongan and Bai Yufeng were drinking tea. For the first time, he experienced what it meant to feel like the days were passing by like years.

As a military general, he really couldn't adapt to such occasions. He was used to being straightforward.

Someone came up to him and asked about his preferences. He answered them one by one at first, but later he just gave up perfunctorily and no one else said anything.

Only Zhang Youxing hid when he saw him from afar. He was really afraid of this man.

There is no mercy in fighting.

Song Tingyue just glanced at him indifferently, with a strong warning in his eyes.

Soon, the dinner began.

Everyone followed the instructions of the servants or maids and sat in their seats.

Both the man and the woman were standing by the waterside pavilion. The summer lotus flowers were in full bloom, creating a picturesque scene.

There is a screen in the middle, which is not impolite.

Chi Yunzhi and Song Tingyue saw each other at a glance. They looked at each other and smiled at each other, which attracted the teasing of Princess Muyang.

"It's only been an hour since we last met, why are you so eager to see me?" Princess Muyang spoke directly, making Chi Yunzhi blush.

"Princess, please don't make fun of me." Chi Yunzhi lowered her head in shame, but her heart was as sweet as honey.

Even Princess Muyang laughed.

Chi Miaoyan just felt that Song Tingyue was looking at her, and she felt happy for a moment, but she didn't expect that he was looking at Chi Yunzhi who was sitting with her.

His eyes suddenly dimmed.

"She's just a concubine's daughter, is she worthy of sitting at the same table with Princess Muyang? Doesn't she consider her own status?"

"That's right, what if she marries the Marquis of Zhenyuan? Is she worthy of him?"

"That's right, the two princesses are too kind. Concubines and other such unpresentable people should sit with the servants."

The words of these two people suddenly made the atmosphere drop to freezing point. Chi Yunzhi suppressed her smile and looked at the two of them without any hesitation.

"So what if I'm a concubine? I'm the wife of the Marquis of Zhenyuan now! Whose family are you from? Why are you so rude?"

"It's a blessing for us that the two princesses are willing to sit here. You're ruining this blessing by saying this!"

Chi Yunzhi made the two of them blush with just a few words, and they couldn't say a complete sentence for a long time.

Princess Wuyang's face turned cold. She ordered her maid to drag the two away and drive them out of the house.

The maid soon figured out the identities of the two people.

They are the daughters of merchants, and there are indeed several merchants attending the dinner today.
