Concubine Hong was stunned for a long time before she sneered, "I never thought that the son I gave birth to would be such a romantic."

"Mother, you don't have to say anything. This has nothing to do with anyone. If you want to blame someone, blame your son. I am really used to being quiet and don't like being served. You have seen why the hair on the back of my head is so white. It is caused by kidney deficiency. Your son often practices fasting to maintain his health, and he also has to practice Taoism to become an immortal all the time. He really doesn't want ordinary people to be contaminated by me." Gao Xuance felt that why the woman wanted to make things difficult for another woman was clearly his own problem.

Concubine Hong had good intentions, but she was irritated by her son instead. She stopped talking immediately. Gao Xuance also felt bored staying there, so he just walked away.

After he left, Concubine Hong was angry again. She also remembered that her son had lost weight recently and refused to drink the tonic soup. She originally wanted to ask him to come over today to give him some tonic, but she never expected that her son would run away. Thinking of this, she felt very distressed.

But the biological mother and son had a quarrel, and they reconciled afterwards. However, the two palace maids Xing'er and Tao'er who were selected to be the masters of the court were embarrassed. Their monthly allowances had been subsidized by Concubine Hong privately, and they had no idea that Gao Xuance would reject them. Concubine Hong certainly did not give them special treatment, which was also normal.

Tao'er was fine, she was honest by nature and had no other ideas. But Xing'er was very uncomfortable. Because of her good looks and rare cleverness, she could be regarded as half a master in Kunning Palace. Everyone treated her as a half-master, but now she was rejected and naturally laughed at.

Xing Er was proud and arrogant, so she naturally couldn't stand it.

Hong Shuyi saw all of this, she would not so blatantly sow discord, but she knew that Xing'er would definitely take revenge in the future. Besides, it was useless for her to stay in the palace. Concubine Hong had stopped giving her many tasks recently, which meant that she had started to use other people, so it was useless for her to stay here.

It's very simple, Concubine Hong can't help her with what she asked for.

She wanted to marry a prince, but Concubine Hong did not regard her marriage as support for her faction. Instead, she felt that it was an offense.

After she leaves the palace, her marriage will be arranged by the Hong family.

It would be better to leave the palace than to waste time staying here. Hong Shuyi left the palace without saying a word.

All these things happened just after Yao Niang's fourteenth birthday. Yao Niang felt that her breasts were getting fatter. At her age, her breasts should be just beginning to show their tip, but now they look like plump peaches.

The waist is too thin and the chest is too big...

Yao Niang felt that she would never be able to ride a horse at will in the future, which was really worrying!

Mid-Autumn Festival is approaching, and Shi Yu's future husband's family, the Jiang family, sent festival gifts and invited them to their home to play. Of course, they would not go. They are not married yet, so how can they go there?

Girls in the royal family are very reserved and cannot be too pushy.

The Luo family ordered dozens of kinds of mooncakes, all of which were the most fashionable this year, and gave them away everywhere. The Marquis Zhongjing's Mansion also invited Yao Niang to come over to play. Now that Wei Feng is in charge, he has a lot of autonomy.

Yu took her two daughters with her, but Ren came over with a flattering look, wanting Yu to take Shi Fang with her as well.

As Yu's life became better, Ren and others became less and less visible in the backyard. Yu just stopped holding grudges, but not against Ren, but against Shi Fang.

Because Shi Fang had already reached marriageable age, her marriage had not yet been decided. In the past, there were still people coming to her house, but now there are fewer people. Ren still wanted to maintain the standard of marrying her daughter off in high rank, so she had to ask Yu for help.

"Third sister-in-law, our Shi Fang is blessed with good looks. Such a girl is much better than those weaklings like you. It's just that we have low positions and I'm old and can't stand socializing. Sister-in-law, you have to help your nephew. It can't be that your niece is the only one in the family who is still unmarried." Ren said with a hint of sourness.

Mrs. Yu was also quite good at Tai Chi: "Look at what you said, it's just going to listen to a play, but to arrange a marriage, you still need to find a matchmaker."

Of course, she couldn't really agree to it. Shi Fang wasn't that outstanding. Ren should be more pragmatic and find a family of scholars instead of always wanting to marry someone above her station. If Luo Zhizheng didn't have a daughter, Shi Fang's position would still be important. But Luo Zhizheng already had three daughters, so how could anyone value Shi Fang?

The Luo family really isn't one that places much emphasis on legitimate or illegitimate children, and they treat their daughters equally. Even though she has been chosen as the prince's consort today, the two sisters are dressed the same.

They were both wearing pearl white stand-up collared blouses, paired with moon white cherry blossom patterned royal blue satin front-breasted jackets, and the hairpins were the same. However, Shi Yu looked at her sister's delicate voice with envy, and said with envy: "Sister, look at me, this is all flat."

"Silly girl, I still envy you now. You don't know how tired I am from walking. And I can't ride a horse in the future, otherwise it will be too unbearable to wander around here. It's best to be like you." Yao Niang still envies Shi Yu.

It’s best if it’s neither too big nor too small. Hers is too big and too firm, which causes a lot of trouble.

I was born with a gentle appearance like my mother, so I should be slim, but I am too delicate and graceful, and I always feel that I am a bit seductive and amorous.

Last time, because it was too hot, she went out wearing a halter dress, which was actually a very common outfit, but even her mother and sister-in-law blushed when they saw her.

This is of course something that troubles her, but if she talks about this kind of trouble, others will think she is ignorant.

Just like now, Shi Yu couldn't help but curl his lips: "Sister, are you showing off to me?"

"No." Yao Niang waved her hands quickly.

However, Shi Yu suddenly hugged Yao Niang and said, "I want to sleep with my sister today. My sister's body is so fragrant and soft."

Yao Niang pinched her face shyly: "Little girl, don't talk nonsense."

When Mrs. Lin of the Marquis Zhongjing's Mansion saw Yao Niang again, she was also secretly amazed. This woman was even more beautiful than before. What made her more charming than others was probably that she looked very gentle and virtuous, but her figure was exquisite and her eyes were clear and black and white, which made her look innocent. However, her every move showed that she was good at poetry and had a lot of connotation.

Looking at her eyebrows, they are a little messy. This kind of appearance is very attractive to men. Almost all men who have seen her would like her very much, but she doesn't realize it yet.

"I saw her when you were a child. Yao Niang has grown into a big girl now." Mrs. Lin looked very happy.

Yu smiled and said, "She will be an adult next year, but she is still like a child. I still remember that I had dinner here with you that year." After saying this, she nodded at Yao Niang.

Yao Niang smiled, and the women around her couldn't help but look at her.

Regardless, this girl is really attractive.

But Yao Niang didn't think beauty played a big role. In fact, if her father was not Luo Zhizheng, it wouldn't matter how beautiful she was.

Shi Fang noticed that everyone's eyes were on Yao Niang, or they were talking to Shi Yu. She was asked who she was and occasionally asked a question or two. Only then did she realize how huge the gap between herself and them was.

When Yao Niang saw Shi Fang's appearance, she suddenly remembered why everyone liked Shi Fang in her previous life. It was not because she was lucky, but because the Dongyang Marquisate valued her. As for herself, she was obese and very closed, and she was unwilling to go out. She looked like she had no future. Even if others gave her a little face for her father's sake, they would not think she had any future.

Many people think that it is shameful to curry favor with powerful people. Of course it is shameful to use shameless means, but if it can really help you reach a certain height, why not?

In the previous life, Er Zi Cheng Yun said that a real man cannot live without power for a day, and this is the reason.

"Fourth sister, let's go to the theater together later. Stand next to me and I'll introduce you. We are both girls from the Luo family. It would be nice if we could stay together so that we wouldn't be left alone." Yao Niang said, holding Shi Fang's hand.

Shi Yu also understood what Yao Niang meant. After all, they were sisters from the same family. Just like Luo Jingrou, if they didn't like her anymore, she would just go. Alas. If Luo Shifang couldn't get married, and she was stimulated by something, if she did something stupid, they would not be able to bear it.

In the past few years, Shi Fang has been with Old Madam Dou, who is much stricter than Ren. She teaches her needlework, reading and copying scriptures. Shi Fang is no longer as ignorant as she was in her previous life.

Even when Shi Fang was sitting next to Yu listening to an opera, Yao Niang took the initiative to leave so that others could see Shi Fang sitting next to Yu at a glance, which would make her marriage easier.

Wei Feng specially sent a maid to accompany Yao Niang to visit the garden. As the hostess, she couldn't leave, and Yao Niang could understand.

The current Zhongjing Marquis Mansion is no longer what it was when it just came back from Datong. At this time, the Lin family is already a royal family, and with the father and son of Zhongjing Marquis in the court, it is now in a prosperous situation.

"Miss Luo, please come here. We have brought a lot of rare chrysanthemums from the south to our garden. The Crown Prince's wife specifically asked you to bring a pot back if you like it."

Yao Niang smiled and said, "Okay, I understand."

When I came here again, Luo Jingrou had already died, and she would not become anyone's concubine.

At this time, Shen Liang, the prince of Xuanping Marquis, was accompanying the prince of Jinyang Prince. Shen Liang was given the title of the prince of Xuanping Marquis because his brother was the consort of Princess Xing'an. He and Gao Jian, the prince of Jinyang Prince, belonged to the faction of the eldest prince Xian Wang and the third prince Chen Wang respectively. The two were socializing with each other insincerely, but they both saw the woman in the garden at the same time.

Gao Jian had taken a fancy to Yao Niang before he came here, and now he saw her taking people to view the flowers. He himself had seen countless girls, so of course he knew that this one was the best among them. He felt a little moved, but because Shen Liang was here, he had to calm himself down.

Shen Liang was the second son who inherited the title and was quite scheming. When he saw Gao Jian's expression, he knew that his old illness had come back. Later, he asked someone about it and found out that the woman was actually Gao Xuance's fiancée.

He came up with a plan in a moment, and discussed it with the eldest prince, Marquis Zhongjing and others, "As the saying goes, Diao Chan's beauty trap has always worked since ancient times. Since the third prince has the support of Gao Jian, he is like a tiger with wings. If we can use this woman to alienate them, the third prince will lose an arm, which is also beneficial to us."
