The curtains hanging at the entrance of the main house are all brocade embroidered with clusters of flowers.
It can be seen that a lot of effort has been put into the interior and exterior of the yard.
The old woman lifted the curtain and invited Zhao Yunzhu into the house.
As soon as you enter the house, you will see a set of red-painted rosewood tables and chairs, and famous calligraphy works are hung on the walls.
On the right side, a red-painted rosewood screen is embroidered with a huge peacock with its tail spread out. The peacock looks lifelike, as if there is really a peacock in the house.
On the black lacquered treasure cabinet shelf on the right are placed excellent quality emerald white jade, potted trees with various gems hanging on red gold, and some mythical beasts carved from white jade.
Even the gauze hanging on the bed was made of extremely light soft smoke gauze supplied by foreign countries. Vines were embroidered on the lotus pink soft smoke gauze with pure gold silk thread.
Wang Min was dressed in a gorgeous purple brocade dress and her hair was adorned with red gold pearl hairpins. She looked extremely wealthy.
She was sitting leisurely in the main seat. When she saw Zhao Yunzhu enter the room, she chuckled and showed no intention of standing up to greet him.
"That Concubine Yun came here today. Please take a seat."
She pointed to a chair nearby.
Zhao Yunzhu slowly sat down and raised his hand to signal all the servants in the room to leave.
"General Liu really treats Miss Wang with great care."
Zhao Yunzhu glanced at the furnishings in the room and smiled meaningfully.
Wang Min nonchalantly played with the emerald bracelet in her hand. "That's natural. I've done good deeds and accumulated virtue, so luckily, God has mercy on me."
"Haha, is that so?" Zhao Yunzhu sneered. Isn't everything Wang Min did for his own benefit?
"If Concubine Yun wants to argue with me today, please forgive me for not accompanying you."
Wang Min suppressed the smile on his face and glanced at Zhao Yunzhu with a cold brow.
"I think Miss Wang has also heard that General Liu had a falling out with his family in order to marry you, and now he has moved to a brothel."
Zhao Yunzhu carefully examined Miss Wang's expression.
Seeing that Miss Wang's face showed no strange expression, she continued, "Miss Wang, does it mean that General Xinliu has other thoughts?"
"Concubine Yun, we all know what kind of person General Liu is. He did this simply to get me to marry into the Liu family. Do you think I would doubt him?"
Wang Min is very confident about this.
"Yes, but the Liu family disagrees. With Empress Dowager Liu, you want to sit back and wait for the Liu family to change their attitude? I'm afraid it will be difficult."
Zhao Yunzhu raised the corners of her lips and smiled calmly, "If the Liu family has another great-grandson, everyone in the Liu family will be very happy."
Miss Wang's eyelids twitched, and she chuckled softly, looking at Zhao Yunzhu with disdain. "I never thought that after the Zhao family fell into decline, the most talented woman in Chang'an relied on her tricks in the brothel to gain her current status."
Zhao Yunzhu glanced at Wang Min coldly. How could she slander the Zhao family?
"Miss Wang isn't necessarily that noble."
She curled her lips sarcastically, "It seems that Miss Wang still hasn't given up on the position of Princess An."
Wang Min had been able to hold back before, but when she heard her mention Prince An, anger suddenly surged in her heart.
She remembered that she had seen Zhao Yunzhu having a secret meeting with Young Master Du in Songxiang Pavilion a few days ago.
He originally wanted to take this opportunity to let Prince An discover Zhao Yunzhu's true face.
But when she found herself before Prince An, he scolded her instead. She ran back crying, and General Liu happened to come to see her.
Seeing her crying bitterly, General Liu took her into his arms with heartache.
It was also on that day that she finally agreed to General Liu's proposal.
This is what happened later.
"Concubine Yun, my thoughts are now on General Lin."
Wang Min had a faint smile on her face, but she was the only one who knew that her heart was already in turmoil.
The reason why she fell in love as a young girl was because of Prince An.
Even though General Lin is great in every way, it is hard for her to be moved by him.
"Really? With my status, I don't think I'll ever be able to become the Princess of An in this lifetime. Even if Prince An dotes on me, the palace must have a principal wife in the future. Rather than letting those noble ladies from Chang'an come, I prefer Miss Wang. After all, we're more familiar with each other."
"You've never been so kind before."
Miss Wang was full of vigilance. The relationship between her and Zhao Yunzhu was not good at all.
"I'm willing to help bring them together, but whether it will be successful depends on Miss Wang herself."
Zhao Yunzhu's eyes darkened. "If Miss Wang can get pregnant with Prince An's child, and then use General Lin, I think the position of Princess An will be..."
After a pause, seeing that Wang Min had really taken the bait, she continued, "Ms. Wang is almost certain to win."
Zhao Yunzhu stood up and said, "Well, I've lived this long. The rest is up to Miss Wang to decide for herself."
After she finished speaking, she turned and left.
Wang Min was left sitting in the room in a daze.
The idea that I had completely given up on has now been rekindled.
Yes, what Zhao Yunzhu said makes sense. If we can really succeed and make use of General Lin, I think things will definitely be successful.
No matter how much Prince An doted on Concubine Yun, her identity as the daughter of a traitor meant that she would never be able to become the Princess of An in her lifetime.
…
After Zhao Yunzhu left, he ordered the carriage to go directly to the brothel where General Liu lived.
Naturally, she went through the back door of the brothel. She did not get off the carriage, but asked the servant to go in and invite General Liu to come out and talk.
General Liu thought that it was someone from the Liu family, so he naturally didn't want to come out.
The servant came forward and whispered in his ear that it was Concubine Yun. General Liu's face paused, and he threw his robe, walked out of the brothel quickly and headed straight for the back door.
"Concubine Yun?"
As soon as he came out, he saw that the curtain of the car window had been opened a little, and he saw the figure of Concubine Yun through the gap.
Suspiciously, "Why is Concubine Yun here? Where is Prince An?"
After saying that, General Liu looked around carefully, but did not see Prince An, which made him very confused.
"It's General Liu I want to see. I wonder if General Liu would be willing to go with me to the teahouse next door?"
Zhao Yunzhu pointed to the teahouse on the side.
"Okay." General Liu was full of curiosity and asked Zhao Yunzhu to enter the teahouse first, and he would follow.
Linglong took the bonnet and put it on her young lady before helping Zhao Yunzhu get off the carriage.
Nanny Hua and the servant asked for a quiet private room on the second floor.
After entering the private room, the waiter served tea and snacks, collected the tip, and then left. Linglong took off the bonnet for the young lady.
The table in the private room was blocked by a screen. When the door was opened, one could only see the screen embroidered with mountains and rivers from the outside, but not the guests inside.
As the door closed again, a dark blue robe embroidered with auspicious cloud patterns in silver thread came into view.
"Concubine Yun." Young General Liu bowed, and Zhao Yunzhu stood up and returned the greeting. "Young General Liu, please sit down."
The two sat facing each other, with two stools between them. Nanny Hua and the maid stood behind Zhao Yunzhu to serve her.
"Madam Liu invited me into her mansion today, hoping I could persuade General Liu."
Zhao Yunzhu said frankly.
"Concubine Yun, I'm sorry. I'm afraid I'll disappoint you."
