Concubine Xian looked at Jiang Si and squeezed out words from between her teeth: "Whether you can be happy or not is not something that can be achieved by just meeting him once or feeling happy. There are many things that need to be taken into consideration when two people want to live together for the rest of their lives and want to be happy and content."

Things have come to this point. She has every reason to be cold to the girl named Jiang without being accused of not being magnanimous enough.

A little girl could actually attract two princes to give her flowers. She was no longer suitable to marry into the royal family, not to mention that she had charmed the Prince of Yan so much that he gave all his concubines to her alone.

What is this for? Is it because beauty brings disaster?

Yu Jin's attitude became more and more lazy, and he said calmly: "If seeing each other once makes me upset, what's the point of talking about a lifetime? According to what the queen said, doesn't everyone have to wait until the end of their life to evaluate whether this life is satisfactory or not?"

Women: What do you mean? King Yan feels upset when he looks at them?

For a moment, the air was filled with murderous rage.

Yu Jin ignored Concubine Xian's increasingly ugly expression and said with a smile: "Anyway, my son is very happy now. I believe that with the blessing of my father, he will be happy in the future."

Concubine Xian made up her mind and simply lowered her eyes, saying solemnly: "Being satisfied does not mean doing whatever you want. Anyway, I will not agree to such an unruly thing. The King of Yan can either give the six green plums to the six girls again, or wait for me to come back and arrange it for you."

He said dead in one sentence, and the whole place fell silent.

Yu Jin stared at Concubine Xian, his eyes as deep as a dark pool.

Concubine Xian raised her eyebrows and sneered in her heart: Could it be that the Seventh Brother dared to talk back in public? If so, she would be able to control him even more tightly. This son, if he doesn't show some color, he doesn't take her, his mother, seriously at all.

"Sister Xianfei, why bother with me so much. Appreciating the plum blossoms today is a pleasant thing. In my opinion, it is a great blessing if one can live a life that is satisfying and happy." Concubine Zhuang spoke at the right time.

Concubine Xian was so angry that she wanted to grab Concubine Huazhuang's dull face.

Concubine Zhuang is such a jerk. She is so easy to talk. What does it mean that if one's life is as he wishes, it is a great blessing? Is this a satire on her for making things difficult for her own son?

Humph, if the King of Shu gave all six green plum blossoms to the girl named Jiang, Concubine Zhuang would still be able to say this. She would give Concubine Zhuang a big “submission”.

Concubine Xian smiled and said, "Sister Zhuang, you misunderstood me. How could I argue with my own son? Instead, I planned well for him, just like you planned well for the King of Shu."

Concubine Zhuang smiled and stopped arguing with Concubine Xian.

In any case, she had already seen today's farce, and Concubine Xian's joke would surely circulate in the palace for a long time. In comparison, her son's gift of a green plum to Miss Jiang was nothing.

Concubine Zhuang glanced at Yu Jian out of the corner of her eye and sighed: Thank you, Prince Yan, for bringing out my son's composure.

Concubine Xian frowned, feeling very uncomfortable.

If it weren't for the Seventh Prince's anger, she could have watched the excitement calmly like Concubine Zhuang.

It's so infuriating!

"The Emperor has arrived--" The loud singing immediately caused a stir among the women.

Why is the emperor coming here?

Concubine Xian and Concubine Zhuang looked at each other, and both saw a hint of surprise in each other's eyes.

The emperor had never joined in the fun of selecting a concubine for the prince.

Besides, it's very strange for the emperor to join in such a commotion. If Yu Shi heard about it, he would definitely think that the emperor had eaten too much.

As Concubine Xian was complaining in her heart, she saw a familiar bright yellow figure walk in, followed by the chief eunuch Pan Hai.

Emperor Jingming looked around, his eyes fell on Yu Jin, then he retracted his gaze and walked towards the second concubines.

Yu Jin raised her lips slightly.

The emperor arrived just in time. It was worth his visit to the emperor before coming here.

Amid the shouts of "Long live the emperor", Emperor Jingming gave the two concubines a virtual support, indicating that the women did not need to be so polite.

With the emperor present, all the women lowered their heads and even breathed more softly.

Although they were daughters of high-ranking families, except for a very small number of those who were related to the royal family, most of the noble ladies saw the emperor in person for the first time.

It turned out that the emperor also had one nose and two eyes, and white hair on his temples. However, at this age, the emperor was still elegant and extraordinary, unlike their father who had a big belly or a bright head, which was enough to make people look forward to the future of the princes.

"Why is the emperor here?" Concubine Xian asked. Although she tried her best to hide it, her stiff smile still made Emperor Jingming notice it.

Emperor Jingming glanced at Yu Jin subconsciously and said calmly, "I heard that there is a girl who can make the budding plum blossoms bloom. I was curious and came to take a look."

It’s all the fault of that kid Lao Qi.

He has so many sons, five of whom are married. All of them were very calm when choosing concubines, but the seventh son came and circled in front of him early in the morning.

He couldn't help but ask what was wrong. The boy said, "Father, what if there is no girl of your dreams at the concubine selection banquet?"

He was so angry that he kicked him.

What kind of concubine selection banquet is this? It’s a plum blossom viewing banquet!

Of course, the purpose of holding the Plum Blossom Viewing Banquet is to select a concubine, but I have never seen it stated so bluntly. Is there any royal reserve at all?

After kicking him, looking at the boy covering his butt with a pitiful look on his face, he casually said that if he was not satisfied this time, he could hold another flower-viewing party. Only then did the boy leave with a smile on his face.

Emperor Jingming recalled that smiling face, which was the most brilliant and open one he had ever seen.

What a wild and wild child. Whether he was angry or happy, he was always so lively, so lively that he couldn't help but take another look, as if he saw the red cloud burning wildly outside the palace for offering sacrifices to the sky on the outskirts of the city.

How can there be such a shameless boy? He must be crazy about his wife. Maybe he is still a green hand now.

Emperor Jingming suddenly became curious about his seventh son's private affairs, so he called Pan Hai to ask him. Sure enough, Pan Hai said that there were no concubines in Prince Yan's mansion, and there were not even many maids.

When Emperor Jingming heard this, he immediately understood a little better.

No wonder, other princes would be arranged to have palace maids to serve them when they turned fourteen. This can also be considered a kind of education.

Emperor Jingming originally paid no attention to the Plum Blossom Appreciation Banquet, but because Yu Jin came, he could not help but order Pan Hai to send someone to take a look.

He was quite curious whether the boy had found a girl that suited his taste at the flower viewing party. After all, it was his private treasury that was being used to host another flower viewing party, and he felt bad about it.

Who knew that when the eunuch replied, he heard a strange story: a girl used some kind of magic to make the budding plum blossoms bloom.

He wanted to come over at that time, but he regretted that old Pan Hai was so stubborn that he missed the show!

After hearing what Emperor Jingming said, Concubine Xian glanced at Pan Hai.

Pan Hai looked up at the sky.

What could he do? He was also in despair!

The atmosphere became more and more strange, so Emperor Jingming asked with a smile: "Whose family is that girl who knows magic?"

Concubine Xian pursed her lips tightly, almost unable to maintain the smile on her face.

Concubine Zhuang smiled and said, "Your Majesty, she is a girl from the Duke of Dongping's mansion."
