Being trusted by the monarch means you can be high-profile without hindrance.
Being distrusted by the monarch, even keeping a low profile can bring trouble.
This time, he would let those who coveted the Yan family, such as Xue Yuan, see the splendor of the Yan mansion.
After a private conversation with the Emperor yesterday, the Yan family should be fine in the short term.
As for the future, it's no longer about the Yan family, but about the indispensable right timing, location, and people.
The area in front of the Yan Mansion was bustling with activity.
Chu Yuan deliberately parked the carriage a little further away, quietly admiring the magnificent scene of guests flocking to the Yan Mansion.
Because she knew that Yan Ling's coming-of-age ceremony was far from satisfactory, both before and after Jiang Xue Ning's rebirth.
In her first life, the Yan family was massacred, Yan's father died, and Yan Ling became a pitiful, helpless child.
The second life was slightly better; Yan's father survived, but both father and son were suspected by Shen Lang and exiled to Huangzhou. They went from being nobles to prisoners and had to walk to the extremely remote place of Huangzhou to suffer.
In this life, she came, and she changed everything!
Yanling had a normal, lively, and glorious coming-of-age ceremony.
Chu Yuan smiled slightly, relieved that her efforts had finally paid off.
"A-Yue." Suddenly, her eyes were covered from behind. The boy had not experienced those tragic events and had not grown up overnight. Although he had matured a lot, his spiritedness was still there.
Chu Yuan laughed and tried to pry his hand away, "Yan Ling, stop fooling around."
"Why didn't you go in since you're already here? Instead, you're hiding here. It's been an hour since we last saw each other. Don't you know I've started missing you?"
Yan Ling lowered her head and breathed into Chu Yuan's ear, whether intentionally or by coincidence, she touched Chu Yuan's most sensitive spot.
Chu Yuan instinctively dodged, "Hey hey hey... stop messing around."
It's not that I don't want to go in, it's just that there are so many people over there, and I don't want to be stared at."
Upon hearing this, Yanling misunderstood and said with a sullen face, "A-Yue, do you not like a lot of people attending my coming-of-age ceremony? Especially those ladies and young misses."
There had been no word from them before, but this morning, after finding out that my father hadn't been punished by the Emperor, they started buzzing around like bees.
To be honest, he was really annoyed!
For her unique coming-of-age ceremony, Yanling only wanted to see a few familiar elders and friends at the banquet.
He didn't want to deal with any of the other unrelated people.
Unfortunately, not only did many beautiful women come, but even Xue Yuan, Xue Ye, and Xue Shu, who harbored malicious intentions, shamelessly showed up.
And there he is, his father, still maintaining the decorum of a noble family, exchanging pleasantries with others.
Yanling wished she could go up and shoo them away directly.
Chu Yuan followed his gaze and immediately understood the boy's thoughts. She tiptoed and gently stroked his angular profile. "No, I wish there were more people."
The more people who like you, the more it proves that my judgment was correct.
Yanling, you must believe that you were born to be the center of attention and so popular. I cannot and will not tolerate you being neglected, not even in the slightest, understand?
