On the day the three new princesses entered the mansion, many servants went to inquire about them.
Upon hearing this, Tingfeng informed Changning that "Princess Niohuru looks gentle and kind. She is sixteen years old this year and is said to have a bit of the charm of Consort De."
“Zhang Gege said she was the most knowledgeable in poetry and literature, and very talented. She had even published a collection of poems when she was at home.”
"That Princess Gao is a tribute girl from Korea. She is the most beautiful and is said to be skilled in musical instruments and dancing."
Changning snorted coldly, "They really each have their own merits! Yinzhen is quite fortunate."
A rational analysis reveals that Niohuru is a formidable rival. Although Changning's current status makes it virtually impossible for her to lose to her, the woman who could ultimately emerge victorious is someone to be wary of.
After all, if Niohuru had given birth to Hongli according to history and ascended the throne, then all the previous princes would have been obstacles. Changning couldn't guarantee that Hongyan wouldn't become her target.
However, if analyzed from an emotional perspective, Changning is still very angry!
Although Yinzhen has always been quite tolerant of her, and has been behaving submissively these past few days, he has no idea where he went wrong!
If he truly loved himself, how could he still have that attitude? That utterly disrespectful attitude towards a plaything.
Thinking of this, Changning became even angrier.
The women in the backyard had long known that three new brides were coming today, and they were all eagerly waiting to see if anyone could rival Consort Fucha.
Even the princess's wife was unsure.
Fucha Changning is far too favored. But that's because there's never been anyone she truly likes in the household; the ones who are stupid are stupid, and the ones who are foolish are foolish.
Now that there's someone new, will Fourth Master still continue to stay by her side?
There are plenty of people waiting to see what happens.
Even these three new princesses each felt that they were extraordinary and had exceptional qualities, and that they would surely win the favor of the Fourth Prince.
That concubine is favored, but it's been two years, isn't she tired of him yet?
That's what Princess Gao thought. She was a tribute woman from Korea, where women were known for their charm, allure, and fertility. She herself was one of the most beautiful women in the Korean clan.
Princess Gao doesn't believe that any man could resist her charm.
As long as the Fourth Prince sees her, he will definitely be attracted to her and obsessed with her. All the immense wealth of the Fourth Prince's mansion belongs to her.
Thinking this through, Gao Gege pretended that she had already won the favor of the Fourth Prince that night, feeling as if she had drunk a glass of fine wine and was immediately floating on air.
But as it turns out, the Aisin Gioro family does indeed produce romantics.
Yinzhen shamelessly came to Qingzhi Courtyard again.
This day was different. He first coaxed Changning in a soft voice, and then slowly told her about going to the Mulan Hunting Ground.
Although she was still angry with Yinzhen, Changning was still very tempted by the thought of being able to leave the mansion to relax, visit the Mulan Hunting Grounds, ride horses, and eat authentic roasted lamb legs.
Seeing her softened expression, Yinzhen finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Now, he finally understands. Yao Xian is different from other women.
He couldn't lose her, and he couldn't bear to see her sad.
He would give her whatever she wanted.
These past few days, he's brought over many things from the storeroom as an apology, including that unique set of glass teaware.
Changning definitely liked it. Because the glass teaware looked beautiful when used to brew fruit tea.
Yinzhen pressed his advantage: "Yaoxian, I know you're angry. I did misspoke earlier. I didn't think much about it and just blurted it out without considering your feelings."
At this point, Changning turned her head and looked at Yinzhen.
His eyes were filled with deep affection as he said emotionally, "You are the only one in my heart. I know you have always been sincere to me. I am not a cold-hearted person. Among so many women in the manor, only you, only with you, do I feel warmth. And only you have shown me what it means to be deeply in love without knowing where it comes from."
“We have the lovely Fengsheng’e, Hutuli, and Tuantuan, all of whom are unique. Yaoxian, I want to grow old with you.”
Changning was somewhat touched. Originally, she hadn't expected to be with one person for life. This was a feudal dynasty, and she was only asking for the bare minimum.
But as her feelings for Yinzhen deepened, she wanted more and more.
Now, all she wants is genuine equality and respect.
Thankfully, he finally understood.
That night, the long-absent sounds from the bed rang out again, lingering for a long time.
This time, the two truly achieved a unity of body and soul.
It felt like the first time they had ever gotten to know each other so deeply, and their understanding of each other had reached its peak. They had never imagined that there could be someone in this world who could be so compatible with them.
The two seemed to have just fallen in love, inseparable.
The next morning, Changning went to pay her respects with a charming air that suggested she had been thoroughly pampered.
Everyone arrived on this day. The three new princesses were the first to arrive. They seemed to behave themselves and were not particularly stupid or brainless.
Changning wore a silver-red cheongsam embroidered with peonies, and a ruby hairpin with pearls and gold threads shone brightly in her hair. The large ruby was a gift from Yinzhen back then. The ruby was radiant and seemed to have ripples flowing in it, which made her small face look even more delicate and fair.
When she gracefully bowed and greeted the new princesses, the three new princesses were so captivated by her beauty that they were almost speechless.
If we're talking about looks alone, even the stunningly beautiful Princess Gao would be ashamed of herself.
Not to mention that after giving birth, Changning's figure became even more voluptuous, with a curvaceous figure, graceful and charming, and outstanding.
Princess Niohuru glanced at her quickly, then looked away just as fast.
When she learned that she had been betrothed to the Fourth Prince, her father inquired about a lot of information for her, especially mentioning this concubine of the Fucha clan.
She never dared to underestimate this concubine. She already knew that this Lady Fucha was of noble birth, had been the emperor's favorite since entering the household, and had given birth to a pair of auspicious twins; she must have some tricks up her sleeve.
Father always reminded himself to avoid competing with the concubine. Just by looking at how she firmly controlled the Fourth Prince and prevented other concubines from standing out, even the First Prince's wife had to give way, you could tell that such a person was cunning and scheming.
Niohuru was lost in thought when she suddenly heard someone calling her, and she quickly looked up.
The princess consort is giving instructions to the new bride.
"Since you have just entered the manor, if you are uncomfortable with anything, whether it is food, clothing, or other necessities, just come to me. Your duty is to serve the Prince and to have children as soon as possible."
At this point, disregarding the slightly embarrassed expressions on the three faces, the Fujin's voice suddenly turned deep, carrying a strong warning.
"Once you're in the manor, it's not like being at home anymore. You still need to abide by the rules of the Prince's manor. If you get into fights and cause any unsightly incidents, don't blame me for not showing you any respect."
The three of them quickly composed themselves and obediently listened to the instructions.
