Chapter 10: A Few Things About My Husband and His Substitute Vixen After Leaving Home
Lin Zhaoyue rested in the palace for two days.
By the way, Lu Chenzhou was left alone for two days.
Of course, the best outcome would be that when she returned to the princess's mansion, Lu Chenzhou had already packed up and left.
And Lin Ye never contacted her again after the quarrel with her that day.
But Feng Mian said that Lin Ye had wandered outside her palace.
He probably hasn't realized yet that he has already withdrawn all the people who have supported him.
As for their affairs with Chu Yinyin, she didn't need to send anyone to keep an eye on them. Once there was any progress between them and Chu Yinyin, the subtitles would "report" to her.
In the past two days, the news that the prince consort had an affair with a woman while Princess Zhaohua was away from Beijing and that the princess, disappointed, chose to divorce on her own initiative has become known throughout the city.
Mu Ying smiled as she reported the news she had gathered to Lin Zhaoyue. "Now, the people of the capital are saying that Her Royal Highness is soft-hearted, and that you were wronged, yet you took the initiative to help this adulterous couple. Many of the young ladies from official families in the capital who had been particularly fond of Chu Yinyin have now cut off all ties with her." When she finished the next sentence, Mu Ying's smile faded, and she was now filled with confusion. "However... there is still a small group who still have a good relationship with Chu Yinyin, and some people are speaking up for her..."
"I don't know what kind of ability this vixen has that can make these arrogant young ladies from official families and those famous families speak for her."
Lin Zhaoyue raised the corner of her lips slightly as she read the secret reports on the movements of officials in the capital city during the year since she left.
"It's enough to have someone standing on my side."
During the year Chu Yinyin was in the capital, she certainly didn't just hook up with Lu Chenzhou and Lin Ye.
He also pleased many young ladies from official families and celebrities.
She has some small skills, such as making soap that makes the skin smooth and white, and some small handicraft items, which are quite popular among these ladies.
She would occasionally say something surprising and thought-provoking, which attracted some famous people to take notice of her.
According to the reasons she pieced together, although Chu Yinyin was raised in a remote courtyard, a mysterious person came to teach her these things from time to time. Chu Yinyin called this person her teacher.
And the things that the mysterious man taught her seemed to be just enough for her to stand out and gain popularity.
Coupled with the aura of a gentle and kind heroine, she has attracted many people to become her network.
If she had not initiated the divorce, but let Lu Chenzhou propose it first as in the original plot, then... maybe everyone would be scolding her for breaking up the couple.
The day she left the palace and returned home, the weather was fine and the weather was nice. Xiao Qi was crying to her while holding a pile of storybooks.
"Woo woo woo, sister, these notebooks are for you..."
Lin Zhaoyue took a look at the books and was stunned when she saw the titles of the books. "After Leaving Home, Two or Three Things About My Husband and That Substitute Fox Spirit, Part One" and "After Leaving Home, Two or Three Things About My Husband and That Substitute Fox Spirit, Part Two"?
It's all a mess.
And the title of this book...why does she feel like the first-person perspective is herself?
Xiao Qi stopped crying, her pink and tender face full of pride, "This is my most valuable thing, and I haven't shown it to my sister yet."
Mu Ying leaned close to Lin Zhaoyue and whispered, "The Seventh Princess wrote this a few months ago, and this series is now selling like hotcakes in all the major bookstores in the capital... I asked around, and she's made at least three thousand taels from selling this series. Everyone's waiting for the Seventh Princess to publish a sequel..."
Hearing this, Feng Mian's eyes widened in surprise.
How can this thing be sold for so much money?
Lin Zhaoyue frowned, "Did you write this?"
Xiao Qi thought Lin Zhaoyue was angry. She twisted her fingers and whispered, "I just couldn't stand them betraying my sister, so I wrote a storybook to scold them. Who knew it would sell so well..."
Lin Zhaoyue flipped through two pages casually, her eyebrows raised slightly. "In that case, how about I give you some more information and consider it as a dividend from my investment?"
Xiao Qi's eyes lit up, and his face was full of excitement, "Okay, okay!"
After talking to Xiaoqi, Lin Zhaoyue took the storybook and got on the carriage to go home.
It was only in the car that she carefully flipped through the notebook written by Xiaoqi.
Although the names of the people in the storybook have been changed, people in the capital will soon be able to identify themselves with the names.
The storybook described her as a tragically betrayed wife whose husband not only had an affair with a vixen outside, but also repeatedly brought the vixen to flaunt his power in front of his wife...
The story is both erotic and thought-provoking.
She couldn't help but raise her lips, "It's time for Xiaoqi to make money."
Even she read this book with great interest.
I just don’t know, these erotic descriptions…
How much messed up stuff did Xiaoqi read before writing this?
As she looked at him, her gaze gradually became more focused.
If she is also a person living in a storybook, then behind every subtitle there is a reader like herself, right?
They are also reading the book in front of them just like I am now.
Flowers in the mirror, moon in the water.
False and true, real and fake.
She didn't know whether she was truly alive or... just words on a piece of paper.
She thought she was in control of her own life, but in fact she was trapped in a small world.
And the world she thought of was nothing more than a bottleneck that tightly strangled everything she had.
[Princess, you are a beautiful and strong careerist, but please don't become a mindless tool. You can definitely change your destiny!]
A sentence floated before her eyes, adding a bit of warmth to her heart.
The wind blew in from outside the curtain, and the hair on her cheeks also stuck to her cheeks.
She looked out the window, her gaze gradually becoming firm.
But she was determined to break this bottleneck.
She must make this bottleneck that is strangling her fate disappear bit by bit!
When the carriage stopped in front of the princess's mansion.
The servant immediately shouted inside, "The princess is back!"
Feng Mian jumped off the accompanying horse and handed the horse to the groom who came over to hold the reins.
He then looked at Lin Zhaoyue, who was getting out of the carriage with the help of Mu Ying, and nodded and saluted: "Your Highness."
Feng Mian is Zhao Yue's personal bodyguard. Like Mu Ying, he has followed her since childhood.
However, compared to Mu Ying, Feng Mian is a man of few words and most of the time he just follows orders.
After Lin Zhaoyue got off the carriage, she went straight back to the princess's mansion.
As soon as they entered the gate, all the maids and servants in the mansion knelt respectfully in the yard.
"Your Highness is welcome back home!"
Lin Zhaoyue walked straight through the middle, and Feng Mian followed behind her.
Mu Ying paused for a moment and said to the servants, "Go and do your work."
All the servants then stood up and respectfully retreated to do their own things.
After giving the instructions, Mu Ying continued to follow.
The princess's mansion was built when Lin Zhaoyue came of age. In the entire royal family, Lin Zhaoyue is the only one who can enjoy her own princess's mansion.
This is a unique honor for her as the emperor's eldest daughter, and also a symbol of the emperor's favor.
She looked around and found that the princess's mansion was just as it was when she left it a year ago. Nothing had changed.
