Then, we can use some tricks to get rid of Su Ruojin's baby, and then she can get pregnant with the prince's child. The position of princess will definitely be hers.
Upon hearing that her older sister had actually agreed, Su Muyao was eager to speak, but Su Ruojin gently patted her hand, so Su Muyao had no choice but to swallow her words.
Seeing the smug look in Dong Menglou's eyes, Su Ruojin continued, "However, the Prince's Mansion has its own rules. To prevent spies from infiltrating the mansion, only gardeners carefully selected by the steward can be responsible for taking care of the flowers and plants in the mansion."
Seeing how sincere Miss Dong is, I, the Princess Consort, can speak with the steward and have Miss Dong come to the manor to work as a gardener.
"As a gardener in the manor, Miss Dong will be subject to the steward's arrangements, living and eating with the servants of the Prince's manor, with a monthly stipend of two taels of silver. Is Miss Dong willing to accept this?"
Dong Menglou's expression changed. She had thought that, given her status, she could be ostensibly serving flowers and plants, but once she entered the Prince's mansion, she would be treated like a young lady. Who would dare to order her around?
If she really needed to do something, she could simply ask the servants in the Prince's mansion to do it.
Unexpectedly, Su Ruojin showed her no respect at all, demanding that she eat and live with the servants and even giving her a monthly allowance. This was clearly treating her like a servant.
As the daughter of a high-ranking official, if she were to become a servant in the Prince's mansion, what would become of her reputation?
Instantly, Dong Menglou's face turned pale and then flushed, and he was speechless for a moment.
Su Ruojin sneered, "What, you don't want to? Miss Dong, if you don't want to, don't just say it like I'm forcing you."
"Your Highness, there's no need to send these flowers to the Prince's residence. Otherwise, a bunch of people will say they want to come and work as gardeners there. Our Prince's residence is too small to afford so many people."
After saying that, she turned around and left with Mu Yao.
Mu Yao was furious and muttered, "This little foxtail grass dares to try and get into our home? It's really overestimating itself."
Her voice wasn't loud, but it was just loud enough for everyone present to hear.
Su Ruojin's lips curled up slightly. This Mu Yao can even roast people now.
Dong Menglou's face turned even more ugly, but he couldn't retaliate, and his eyes turned red with anger.
Yao Lan saw everything, and with a slight smile, she said, "Miss Dong, would you like to accompany me for a walk?"
Since Consort Chun had invited him, Dong Menglou dared not refuse and quickly composed himself, saying, "It is my honor to accompany Your Highness."
“Miss Dong, the Regent’s Palace is indeed a bit empty now that there is only one Princess Consort. Given Miss Dong’s background, it is really a disservice to Miss Dong to be a concubine of the Regent.”
"However, if Miss Dong doesn't mind and still wishes to enter the Regent's Palace, I can speak with the Emperor and find an opportunity to bestow a marriage upon you. It would be a way of helping others achieve their goals and facilitating a happy union," Yao Lan said.
Yao Lan said this, but in her heart she didn't believe that Dong Menglou was capable of entering the Regent's Palace.
Whenever Su Ruojin was involved, Xiao Yanchu dared to disregard the imperial edict.
Should Xiao Chen also be granted a marriage?
Heh, Xiao Chen dared to bestow such a decree, but Xiao Yanchu dared to defy it.
Dong Menglou was unaware of this. She was stunned at first, and then overjoyed.
However, she at least retained a sliver of rationality, understanding that there's no such thing as a free lunch.
Everyone in the capital knew that the Regent had said he would only marry one wife and would never take a concubine.
However, the Regent has now basically returned power to the Emperor. If the Emperor were to issue an imperial edict, would he or the Su family dare to disobey it?
Thinking of this, Dong Menglou knelt down before Yaolan, "Menglou is willing to obey Your Majesty's orders."
