"Which sisters do you want to bring? The reason our Yu family was invited to this palace banquet is because you are engaged to the Crown Prince. We have never been invited before." Wang sighed, holding Yu Rou's hand. "My dear Jiaojiao, you have truly brought honor to the Yu family."
Yu Rou smiled and said, "Take the second sister, the third sister, and the fifth sister with you."
Wang didn't think much about it. "Okay, I'll have someone tell them to make good preparations. You should also take good care of yourself. Don't let your illness not heal by then."
Yu Rou nodded. "Well, mother, leave the matter of Mr. Guhe to me. I have a way."
Wang thought she was referring to asking the Crown Prince for help, so she said, "Okay, I'll trouble you, Jiaojiao. But don't force yourself."
"I know."
After a while, a maid came to invite Wang, saying that there were guests at home. Wang carefully instructed Yu Rou to take the medicine well and then left.
Just as Wang had left, another maid came in and announced, "Young lady, the second lady, the third lady, and the fifth lady are here to see you."
Yu Rou blinked, really not letting her idle away, she said: "Let them in."
Among these sisters, the oldest is the original owner.
"Big sister, my second and third sisters and I are here to see you."
The person who spoke was a young girl wearing a plain bright red jacket with a goose yellow edge. She had a beautiful face and a smile in her eyes. She looked very young, beautiful, lively and lovely. She was Wu Niang, Yu Si, whom Yu Rou had just mentioned that she would bring to the palace to attend the palace banquet.
Yu Si's father was Yu Rou's third uncle, and was a concubine's son. However, Yu Si was very obedient and sensible since childhood, and was loved by the old lady of the Yu family, so he was not neglected at home.
In the original plot, the original owner was framed by the prince, and Yu Si played an indispensable role in it. She discovered that someone had put drugs in the tea, but did not remind the original owner. Later, when the princes and ladies came over, she accidentally opened the door of the room where the original owner was and was the first to discover the original owner.
So, if it weren’t for her, the original owner wouldn’t have been so miserable.
This time Yu Rou decided to take her with her, but she had other plans.
"Well, thank you, sisters." Yu Rou's gaze swept over them lightly, finally falling on Yu Si, but she did not stay there for long.
Yu Si saw the medicine bowl on the table and asked with a smile, "Is Big Sister feeling better?"
Yu Rou said, "Much better. Thank you for your concern, sister."
"It's all my fault that I took my elder sister to see that Moonlight Beauty, which caused her to catch a cold. My mother has already punished me and locked me up in the room for several days. Today, she was released, so I hurried to see you." Second Lady Yu Ting said with a guilty look on her face.
Yu Ting's father is Yu Fu's younger brother, so her relationship with Yu Rou is closer than that with other sisters.
Yu Rou shook her head and consoled him, "I don't blame you. I was the one who asked to see it, so you took me there. Besides, the moonlit beauty was so beautiful, and even more dazzling under the lights at night. It's a pity that it closed after a short while."
"I'm relieved that Big Sister doesn't blame me. My mother scolded me like a dog." Yu Ting walked to Yu Rou, took Yu Rou's hand and said pitifully, "It's the time for a spring outing to enjoy the flowers, but my mother won't let me go out. Big Sister, please get well soon and take me out to play."
Yu Rou smiled and said, "Don't worry, there will be a flower banquet in the palace in a few days. I've already told my mother, and I'll take you guys with me."
"Really?" Yu Ting was overjoyed.
"Of course it's true." Yu Rou said while observing the expressions of her other sisters. A hint of surprise flashed in Yu Si's eyes.
Even though Yu Si was very cunning at a young age, in Yu Rou's eyes, Yu Si was just a little girl of thirteen or fourteen years old. She wanted to see what tricks Yu Si could use.
The conversation between the little girls was a little too naive for Yu Rou, but she still chatted with them for a while and heard some interesting gossip.
For example, a few days ago, the poems and paintings created by Yan Wanyun were amazingly beautiful to the Buddhist Zilian, who called her the most talented woman in Bianjing, and she was praised by several great scholars.
Yu Rou was very familiar with Yan Wanyun's name. She was the heroine of this world.
Although she had the same idea as the original owner and her goal was to become the queen who was second only to the emperor, she was much smarter.
Yan Wanyun was born in a humble family. The Yan family was not a prominent family and did not have deep roots in the capital. Her father, Yan Lei, had only passed the imperial examination two years ago. However, Yan Lei was extremely talented and was promoted by the prime minister. He made several achievements and was promoted five levels in just two years. He was highly valued in the court.
The great thing about Yan Wanyun is that although she thinks she is aloof, she is very good at pleasing people, and all the noble ladies in the capital like her very much.
The Da'an Dynasty valued literature over military affairs, and talented people were valued, and the same was true for women. In the women's school, the noble ladies all followed her lead, and she was also very resourceful in dealing with the opposite sex. She was not as beautiful as Yu Rou, and her appearance was just pretty, but all the people who wanted to marry her were sons of nobles in the capital.
In the original plot, she repeatedly helped His Royal Highness the Crown Prince and finally succeeded in marrying into the Crown Prince's Mansion. On the day the Crown Prince ascended the throne, he canonized her as Queen. At that time, the original owner had not yet married and became an old maid at home with no one paying attention to her. People would only remember that she had been engaged to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince when chatting and make fun of her stupidity.
…
After Yu Ting and the others left, Yu Rou instructed Haitang to send someone to quietly go to Baima Lane to find out if there was a Mr. Guhe named Jia living there. If so, don't make a fuss, just come back and report.
