Compared to Mu Qingning, Chen Shuyi is really much better.
"No problem."
"I'll take my leave first. I'll come back to visit you when your majesty is better." Seeing that she had no intention of keeping him, Shen Shuyi hurriedly said goodbye and left.
Seeing this, Mu Qingning also stood up and said goodbye.
When Shang Ruoyi sent the two of them out, Mu Qingning secretly glared at her a few times. Shang Ruoyi saw it all but ignored it.
Shang Ruoyi could guess what she was thinking with just one look. The one who was really hard to be seen through was the eldest daughter of the Shen family.
"Princess, please stay a moment. Bye." She turned and got into the carriage. Mu Qingning rolled her eyes at her and also got into the carriage and left.
Qin went back to rest, and Shang Ruoyi went straight back to the yard.
"Do you know anything about the Mu family and the Shen family?"
Shaoyao shook her head: "Miss, the Mu family has always been at odds with our Shang family. When I was serving in the Xiangfu before, I heard people say that the eldest daughter was often bullied by the Mu family's daughters outside, but I have never heard of this Shen family's daughter. Could it be that Miss is worried that they want to marry into the Dingguo Palace?"
Shang Ruoyi shook her head: "This Chen Shuyi didn't come here to please my mother today. Since she doesn't want to please my mother, she naturally has no intention of marrying in. Mu Qingning is almost writing the words 'come to my house to propose marriage' on her face, but according to her brain, even if she grows another child, she will not be qualified to marry in here."
"Then what are you worried about?"
Shang Ruoyi frowned slightly, she didn't know if she had seen it wrong, there was a strange feeling in Chen Shuyi's eyes when he looked at her.
When Shen Shuyi returned to the mansion, her maid Furong walked in front of her and hung her outer robe on the rack.
"Miss, the wild ginseng was specially found by the Duke and asked you to give it to the Imperial Concubine. Why did you take it to the Dingguo Palace?" Furong muttered, "No matter how good the things you bring are, you can't marry into the Dingguo Palace."
“You!” Shen Shuyi nodded her head: “You are short-sighted.”
Furong rubbed her forehead and said, "Forgive my stupidity."
“The Dingwang Palace has just returned to the capital. Others don’t know the reason, but father can tell me clearly that the more people are waiting and watching, the more sincerity we must show.” She soaked her body in warm water: “Didn’t you see the expression on Princess Ding’s face when she saw the wild ginseng?” There was no trace of surprise, and she even felt that the wild ginseng, which was extremely precious in their eyes, was just an ordinary object, not worth mentioning. What she cared about most was the hairpin on Shang Ruoyi’s head.
I'm afraid even the Queen has never worn such a big pearl, and it's a golden one, which is simply unheard of.
She took out the Dongzhu that Concubine Zhao had previously rewarded her with, and it instantly became worthless of only a few silver coins.
"Miss, do you want to make this Dongzhu into jewelry?"
Chen Shuyi threw it into the jewelry box without even looking at it.
Seeing her young lady's movement, Furong quickly shut her mouth.
Mu Qingning returned to the Prime Minister's Mansion and went back to her room angrily.
"Damn it, I was tricked by that little bitch!" Her chest heaved violently, and she threw the pillow on the bed at him: "A mere concubine's daughter dared to ride on my head today!"
When Mrs. Zhao, the wife of the Right Prime Minister, heard that she had returned, she hurried in.
"What happened? Who offended my precious daughter?" Madam Mu said with a smile, "Tell mother quickly."
"Who else?" Mu Qingning's eyes exuded coldness: "It's still that little bitch Shang Ruoyi!"
"Shang Ruoyi?" Madam Mu thought for a moment and said, "But the concubine of the Shang family, the one who married the prince of Zhan as his consort?"
"It's her!" Mu Qingning clutched the handkerchief tightly in her mouth and said angrily, "A concubine's daughter actually asked me to pay respect to her. That's fine, but she also set a trick for me in front of the princess, making me lose face and offending the princess."
"Oh?" Madam Mu was surprised, "She is a concubine's daughter, but she has such deep thoughts."
"Mother, you don't know that it is because of her status as a concubine that she has so many despicable tricks. I guess when she first came to the Shang Mansion, her aunt taught her these low-class tricks." She pouted: "Look at those troublesome people in our mansion, isn't that the case?"
Madam Mu nodded and immediately said with a smile: "She is just a concubine's daughter, is it worth you being so angry?"
Mu Qingning looked at her, her face slightly red. Madam Mu saw through her intentions at a glance and smiled, "Could it be that you have other thoughts about Prince Ding?"
"Mother."
"Well, it's not a big deal for me. It turns out that the girl from our Xiangfu has a lover." Madam Mu pinched her face lovingly: "Mother and Princess Zhan had some friendship in the early years. Since you like her, I will help you to get the position of the prince's consort. What's the difficulty?"
"Really?" Mu Qingning asked in surprise, "Are you really going to take the position of the principal wife? But the prince already has a principal wife now!"
"So what if there is a queen? What qualifications does the daughter of a guilty minister have to occupy the position of the queen? The Dingguo Palace has been loyal and brave for generations, how could they allow a woman to ruin the reputation of the palace?"
Mu Qingning was overjoyed when she heard this. Thinking of how Shang Ruoyi scolded her today while sitting in the main seat, she said coldly, "When I become the Crown Prince's Consort, I will definitely make her suffer and let her know who she can't afford to offend."
On the second day, Shang Ruoyi was in the space looking at the Wei family's property that she had searched from Shangnian's secret room. She couldn't help but be amazed. He was worthy of being the richest man in Beijing. Any treasure here was priceless. It was conceivable how glorious the Wei family would be when it was at its peak.
Her mother was also very lucky. After being taken away by her enemies, she still grew up to be such a person.
She took out the sheepskin map and also took Cong Fangzhi's map. It turned out to be the same map and they could be pieced together.
Now this picture only has half, and the other half is still unknown.
Just then, Shaoyao's voice came over: "Miss, the princess invites you."
She walked out of the space and opened the door: "Who is it today?"
Since the Mu family and the Shen family closed their doors yesterday, several ladies and young ladies came one after another in the afternoon.
She was not sociable at all, and sitting there was like a torture.
"It's still the Mu family." Shaoyao whispered, "It was Madam Mu who brought Miss Mu to visit today. The princess asked you to dress up nicely."
Shang Ruoyi looked at her in surprise. Dress up nicely?
After figuring out the secret, Shang Ruoyi couldn't help but laugh out loud. Her mother was really adorable.
But since her mother said so, she naturally had to dress up well, at least to outdo Mu Qingning.
