Yang Wanyan opened her arms in joy, but her cheeks were covered in dust, her hair was messy, and a sour, foul smell hit her face. Zou Yangyao was initially a little happy, but he finally dodged to the side and said, "Go ahead and change."
Yang Wanyan didn't miss the flash of disdain in Zou Yangyao's eyes. She bit her lip, feeling aggrieved, but eventually she said obediently, "I'll go take a bath first. Thank you, General, for running around for Wanyan. Wanyan is now free."
Zou Yangyao frowned. Did he run around? No, it was Jing Yuchen who gave him the benefit on his own initiative!
I just don’t know what means Jing Yuchen used to make Ni Yueshan compromise.
The next day, just after Ni Yueshan finished breakfast, he saw Ren Mei appear. Ni Yueshan asked in confusion, "Have you finished your mother's funeral? Why are you in such a hurry to come back?"
"I heard rumors about the General's Mansion and you, Miss, in the city today. I was worried, so I came back to check."
Ni Yueshan wiped his mouth and asked with interest: "Tell me about it?"
Ren Mei had a serious expression on her face. "I heard rumors in the city that you, Miss, weren't divorced by the general. Instead, you were angry and went back to the Prime Minister's residence to stay for a few days. After your anger subsided, you left. And Concubine Yang was released from the Dali Temple, which is enough to prove that you, Miss, are interested in reconciliation!"
Ni Yueshan curled his lips and smiled: "Are you trying to reconcile? Are you just throwing a tantrum? Haha, who spread this? How come I don't know?"
Ren Mei looked tangled. "I don't know either, so I was worried that the young lady might have been oppressed by someone and changed her mind, so I came back to check."
Ni Yueshan smiled and comforted him, "It's nothing. Go back and take care of your mother's funeral."
"That servant..."
"Miss, here is your invitation."
Ren Mei was interrupted by a servant before she could finish her words.
Ni Yueshan reached out to take it, very curious, who would invite her?
She is now a divorced woman, and the divorce has caused a lot of uproar.
"This is an invitation from a servant in the Princess's mansion. The Princess is a noble lady, and many daughters of wealthy families have longed to meet her, but have never had the chance. I never thought that the young lady would receive such an honor. I would like to congratulate her."
Judging from the maid's tone, she had no previous contact with the eldest princess, otherwise the maid would not have said so much when delivering an invitation.
"I understand. You can leave now."
After the maid left, Ni Yueshan looked at Ren Mei: "What is the status of the eldest princess? Is her mother the queen?"
Ren Mei knew that Ni Yueshan had forgotten many things, so she hinted, "She is the daughter of the Imperial Noble Consort, the Emperor's eldest daughter. She has a younger brother, the current Fourth Prince."
"What is the relationship between the Fourth Prince and the Second Prince?"
The Second Prince is trying to win over Zou Yangyao, but what about the Fourth Prince? Could he be Jing Yuchen's mortal enemy?
"They are all the emperor's children, but the second prince is the most popular among women..."
As he spoke, he lowered his head shyly with a coy expression. Ni Yueshan's mouth twitched. Jing Yuchen is very popular with women?
That person is obviously very annoying, okay?
Ni Yueshan complained helplessly: "Don't believe the rumors. People outside praise him just because they think he has a good status!"
Ren Mei was stunned. Why did she feel that Ni Yueshan acted strangely when she heard Jing Yuchen?
Ren Mei went back to take care of her mother's funeral. Ni Yueshan was a little unhappy about the invitation from the eldest princess.
When Ni Gao returned from court, Ni Yueshan went to ask the eldest princess for information.
Ni Gaofei only pointed out that the eldest princess was a sister of the fourth prince from the same mother, and that the invitation of various noble ladies this time might be to select a good match for the fourth prince, or there might be other purposes.
Ni Yueshuang was also invited...
"Choosing a good match? Why invite me? I'm just a divorced woman." Ni Yueshan became more depressed.
Ni Gaofei pointed out, "This is exactly the princess's cleverness. She didn't just invite unmarried women. This way she could quell some of the speculation."
So, as a divorced woman, she was asking for trouble by going there?
"So, what's the relationship between the Fourth Prince and the Second Prince?" Ni Yueshan looked at Ni Gaofei expectantly. Ni Gaofei frowned, "Although the Second Prince helped Zou Yangyao in the Dali Temple, you can't make an enemy of him just because of that! Don't make irresponsible remarks about their royal family affairs!"
This is both a reminder and a warning.
Ni Yueshan didn't understand the situation in the court and felt helpless. "So, should my daughter go tomorrow, or can she not go?"
"Just go through the motions and avoid causing trouble. How can I refuse the invitation of the Princess?"
The next day, Ni Yueshan did not get up early, nor did she prepare any clothes in advance. She just pulled out a piece of clothes from the closet. After all, the original owner had such a large burn on her face that it would not look good no matter how she dressed up.
She dressed slowly, asked the servant to comb her hair into a bun, and went out.
At the gate, Ni Yueshuang saw Ni Yueshan in an ice-blue dress, and a disdainful smile appeared on the corner of her mouth.
"So it's you, big sister. You're leaving the house so early? Aren't you going to attend the invitation banquet at the Princess's residence? Big sister, do you know who's gathered here today? Are you going because you think you're not embarrassed enough?"
There was a strong sense of sarcasm in her words and her eyes were full of resentment. Ni Yueshan framed her and she was holding a grudge!
"Who are all the people gathered here? I think they are all legitimate descendants. Could it be that the eldest princess has invited you as well? If you, a concubine, go out, aren't you just there to make up the numbers?"
Ni Yueshan sneered and walked away.
Ni Yueshuang was proud, so Ni Yueshan thought that the word "bastard" might be a sore spot for Ni Yueshuang.
Ni Yueshuang was indeed very angry. She clenched her fists, but soon calmed down her anger and walked towards the carriage.
Outside the Princess's Mansion, there were already quite a few carriages, sedan chairs, etc. parked.
Ni Yueshan, wearing a veil, slowly got out of the car.
Ni Yueshuang followed closely behind and got off the carriage.
She looked at Ni Yueshan walking in, a disdainful smile appearing on the corner of her mouth.
In the Prime Minister's Residence, she relied on her legitimate status to suppress her, but this is the Princess's Residence, so Ni Yueshan can only wait to make a fool of herself.
She took a step forward and walked inside.
The interior of the mansion was decorated very elegantly, and there were servants leading the way. Many young ladies from aristocratic families had already arrived, and when they saw someone familiar, they naturally came forward to greet them.
"Who is that? Why is he wearing a veil when entering the mansion?"
"Who knows? He doesn't look familiar."
Ni Yueshuang, who was following behind the others, raised her lips and walked over: "That's the daughter of the prime minister, my sister."
Everyone present showed a surprised expression. The daughter of the prime minister?
"Isn't she a divorced woman..."
Everyone was depressed. How could such a woman come to accept the invitation of the eldest princess?
Doesn't this lower the status of those present?
