A few months later, on an auspicious day, Nian Yunrong, dressed in the wedding attire of a secondary consort, married into the Yong Prince's mansion.
From then on, Nian Yunrong was not only Nian Yunrong, but also the secondary consort of Prince Yong's mansion.
That evening, Yinzhen, slightly drunk, entered Nian Yunrong's courtyard.
This courtyard was specially prepared by Niohuru Wanru and Geng Youran after they had someone inquire about Nian Yunrong's preferences in advance.
Elegant, yet witty.
“Raise your head.”
Through a red veil, Nian Yunrong heard a magnetic male voice.
She was very shy. Normally, her mother was very strict, and her only close relationships were with her father and two older brothers. Now, she had another husband.
Yinzhen was very patient; he didn't urge him any further, but waited patiently.
Nian Yunrong finally mustered up her courage and raised her head to let the Fourth Prince lift her veil.
The Fourth Prince's eyes lit up; she was indeed a beauty.
Unlike her gentle personality, Nian Yunrong's appearance carried a hint of arrogance, a confidence born from the doting love of her family.
The two of them spent a wonderful evening together.
The next day, Nian Yunrong followed the nanny to the Fujin's courtyard to pay her respects.
The thought of soon meeting the Fourth Prince's father and his other concubines made her inexplicably uncomfortable.
Since Nian Yunrong's rank was that of a secondary consort, she only needed to greet the primary consort. However, the other princesses, such as Geng Youran, also needed to bow and greet Nian Yunrong.
Throughout this process, Geng Youran felt as if a gaze was constantly watching her.
She didn't bother to look for that gaze, because she already knew who it belonged to.
That's right, it's the newly arrived Consort Nian.
Nian Yunrong kept glancing at Geng Youran until her maid, Qingxi, gently nudged her from behind, at which point she looked away.
“Sister Nian, from now on we are family. If you need anything, just let me know.”
"Thank you for your kindness, Madam."
"Yes, we're family now, so please don't be shy, little sister."
"Sister Li is right. That's what the Prince instructed last night as well, telling me to learn more from you sisters."
Consort Li's face froze for a moment, but she quickly recovered.
Geng Youran and Wanru looked at each other, thinking that this Consort Nian was quite bold, daring to go against Consort Li on her first day of paying respects.
The princess consort smoothed things over, using the excuse of feeling unwell to dismiss everyone.
After returning to her own courtyard, Consort Li beat and threw things around.
The servants nearby didn't dare to step forward to advise her. Only the old nanny dismissed everyone from the room and waited until Li Shi had vented her anger, served tea, and called people in to clean up before speaking.
"Why would Consort do this?"
"Granny, you heard it today too. That Lady Nian has only been at the Prince's residence for two days, and she doesn't even know her own name anymore. She dares to mention the Prince to me? What right does she have!"
“Consort, that Lady Nian is clearly childish and can’t hide her thoughts. You don’t need to be angry with her.”
After thinking it over, Li realized that she had only recently been released from confinement and indeed needed to temporarily avoid the limelight.
Niohuru Wanru followed Geng Youran into her courtyard.
"Xinyi, make some tea."
"yes."
"Sister, did you hear what Consort Nian said just now?"
Geng Youran said with a smile:
"I'm not deaf, of course I heard you. What's wrong?"
Wanru sighed. Xinyi was right. Sister Geng really didn't have much of a brain when it came to vying for favor.
"Sister, didn't you realize that Consort Nian was deliberately showing off?"
"I can tell."
Geng Youran took the tea Xinyi handed her, took a sip, and then asked:
"So what?"
“That year, Consort Nian’s brother was Nian Gengyao. Their family is not stupid. They must have found out about the situation in our mansion beforehand. So it’s obvious that Consort Nian deliberately said those things to Consort Li today.”
Geng Youran shook her head and said with a smile:
"That year, the Nian family was a few years younger than us, so it's normal that they still had a childlike mentality."
Geng Youran genuinely didn't care; on the contrary, she was actually looking forward to it.
Before she transmigrated, she would often hear her friends talk about the plots and characters of various TV dramas, with Lady Nian being a major topic. It was said that Emperor Yongzheng's favor towards Lady Nian was obvious and undeniable.
She really wanted to see for herself just how good this cold-faced Prince Yong could be to Lady Nian.
The protagonist they were talking about, Nian Yunrong, smiled especially happily after returning to her courtyard.
"I didn't believe it when my mother said it, but after I arrived, I found that they weren't as bad as my mother said."
But Qingxi doesn't think so.
Before their master got married, he was so pampered that he had no idea of the treacherous nature of people in the inner quarters.
In fact, Nian Yunrong was not as simple as Qingxi thought. However, after seeing the people present today, she felt that she had a pretty good chance of winning against the Fourth Prince.
According to the rules, the Fourth Prince would stay overnight at Consort Nian's residence for three consecutive days, after which he would return to his original state.
But on the fourth, fifth, and even sixth day, the Fourth Prince still went to Nian Yunrong's courtyard.
Li began to feel uneasy.
"Granny, the prince seems to treat this Lady Nian very differently."
"Consort, let's wait and see."
On the seventh day, the Fourth Prince went to Niohuru's courtyard; on the eighth day, he went to Geng Youran's courtyard.
He then spent a few more days with the Fujin and several other princesses.
In short, I did not visit the Li family.
Li Jingshu finally couldn't take it anymore.
