"Who is she?" Yi Fei's voice suddenly sounded, and her hand was pointing to Xian Zi Ai, who had lowered her head and said nothing. Xian Zi Ai never raised her head, but unfortunately, Xian Zi Ai was standing opposite Yi Fei, although
She didn't raise her head, but her graceful figure still made Concubine Yi unhappy.
Neither Prince Yu nor Princess Hanyu answered Concubine Yi's question, as if they wanted Xian Zi Ai to answer it herself.
Xian Ziai waited for a while, and seeing that neither Prince Yu nor Princess Hanyu spoke, she had to salute and said slowly: "I am Xian Ziai, the wife of the eldest son of Guan Mansion. The Queen Mother has announced that Ziai will come to the palace to obey Princess Hanyu."
As arranged, the Xian family shop will prepare the wedding dress and accessories that Princess Hanyu likes."
"Xian Zi Ai?" Concubine Yi repeated the name, frowned slightly, and then smiled coldly and said, "I heard my mother mention you when she came to the palace. You are the head wife of brother Yu Peng and the wife of my father.
The daughter-in-law you have chosen for Brother Yupeng, but Aunt Guan doesn’t like you very much. She said you are a lowly woman. It must be that my father did not see clearly the face of the Xian family at that time and was deceived by your Xian family.”
No one spoke for a while, and Xian Ziyi didn't answer immediately.
"She was spoiled by Prince Yu." Xian Ziyun said softly, "It's just that Ziyuan couldn't see how much Prince Yu liked Concubine Yi. Since she appeared, Prince Yu only said hello, and her voice was so loud.
It's very gentle, but you can't hear any emotion at all."
"Only if she is spoiled, can Prince Yu find a reason to depose her after he ascends the throne without offending the current Prime Minister. The current Prime Minister has always been tactful. He has contacts with the current Emperor and Shen Moyan who left, so it counts.
She was an official in the past two dynasties. Her sister is more honest, and it probably has something to do with the Queen's strict supervision." Xuan Yi said softly, "She just has the value of existing at this moment."
Xian Zi Ai spoke slowly at this time, with a slight hesitation in her words, "Zi Ai was born in a common people's family. She is not as well-educated and sensible as Concubine Yi, and I feel ashamed. But what kind of person is the emperor? How could there be any mistake? Zi Ai has really let him down.
The emperor's love is great, but Zi Ai will try her best to be the eldest daughter-in-law of Guan Mansion, abide by her duties, respect her parents-in-law, and serve her husband peacefully."
There was no complaint or flaw in her words.
"Your sister is indeed getting smarter and smarter." Xuan Yi smiled slightly and whispered.
Xian Ziqian sighed softly and said slowly: "The smarter she is, the more it means her situation is getting worse and worse. Only when the situation gets worse, people will become smarter and more tenacious. In fact, my sister is just being taught by her mother.
She is pampered, but did you know that your mother has always been strict with your sister. Always doting on her and never scolding her does not mean that your sister will live an easy life. She has too many things to learn, so much that she sometimes secretly cries.
I once saw my sister tearing the music scores she had learned into pieces piece by piece."
Xuan Yi didn't say anything. In his heart, Zi Jian was beautiful. He didn't feel anything about Zi Ai.
Concubine Yi was startled, feeling that Princess Hanyu glanced at her unintentionally. Then she felt that there was something wrong with her comment about how the current emperor was deceived. That was the emperor. Just as Xian Ziai in front of her said, how could the emperor be wrong?
, she, a princess, can actually talk about the current emperor like this!
Prince Yu suddenly smiled slightly, his voice a bit distressed, "Yi'er was just making a little joke. Young Madam of the Guan family, you don't have to take it to heart. My father has always doted on Yi'er. Ever since she married this prince, my father has always
Tell this prince to take good care of Yi'er."
Listening to his words, it was obvious that he intended to protect Concubine Yi who had said something wrong.
Xian Zi Ai did not refute at all, and immediately said respectfully: "Zi Ai remembers it."
Concubine Yi glanced at Prince Yu, and her face flashed with joy. Her husband had always indulged her in everything. If she didn't like it, even if he had just married a concubine in the palace, his expression would not change.
He was sent to the cold palace, or kicked out directly, or even rewarded privately to his bodyguards.
"Xian Zi Ai, you must remember what Prince Yu said carefully." Concubine Yi was still a little uneasy and specifically told her, fearing that if these words fell into the ears of the Queen Mother again, that old woman looked so kind to her.
, always rewards herself with some things, but she always feels that the Queen Mother is just like the Princess Hanyu in front of her. She doesn't really like her, but just pretends to like her because Prince Yu likes her, "I, the Princess,
I don’t want to hear anyone mention this again.”
"Remember Zi Ai," Xian Zi Ai still said softly and respectfully.
Prince Yu smiled slightly and seemed to just say casually, "Yi'er, look, you frightened the young lady of the Guan family so much that her face turned pale. She just stood there trembling. She is also the eldest daughter-in-law of the Guan family after all. Her father-in-law's family has always been with the Guan family.
We have a good relationship and often interact with each other. Your brother has a very good personal relationship with the Guan family. Yi'er has always been the most soft-hearted, so please give some benefits to this young lady of the Guan family."
Concubine Yi thought for a moment and felt that what Prince Yu said made some sense. Yes, although Mrs. Guan of the Guan Mansion did not like the Xian Zi Ai in front of her, this girl from the Xian family was personally chosen by the current emperor for the Guan Mansion.
Even if you don't like it, you can't say anything good or bad. This is simply expressing dissatisfaction with the current emperor.
"Okay, Xian Zi Ai, what do you want?" Concubine Yi asked somewhat arrogantly.
Xian Zi Ai immediately said respectfully: "Zi Ai has benefited greatly from your reprimand and Prince Yu's lessons. Guan Mansion has always been generous to Zi Ai, so it is a blessing for Zi Ai to be a daughter-in-law in Guan Mansion."
Prince Yu seemed to think for a moment and frowned slightly, "The time for Hanyu to get married is coming soon. It would be best if there are some people who know everything about her. The person Hanyu is marrying is Guan Yucheng, the second son of Guan Mansion.
Xian Zi Ai is the wife of the eldest son of Guan Mansion, and the sisters-in-law help each other. Well, I am afraid that the eldest son of Guan will have to rush back to the border. Once he leaves, Mrs. Guan may not be able to have a good discussion with her eldest daughter-in-law for a while.
Mrs. Guan is busy with the betrothal gift prepared by the Guan family when she marries Yu, and the Guan family has no one to take care of her. In this case, you can reward her with half the rights of the head of the Guan family."
Concubine Yi hesitated and said softly: "Will Aunt Guan be unhappy?"
"Why is she unhappy?" Princess Hanyu suddenly said calmly at this time, "Xian Ziai was personally chosen by the emperor for the Guan Mansion. They are so picky. If the prime minister knew about it, he would probably say, after all, hair makes sense.
In short, does Concubine Yi agree with Hanyu's words?"
Concubine Yi frowned and glanced at Xian Zi Ai. She had been standing with her hands down respectfully. She was indeed not as vulgar and rude as Mrs. Guan said, and she even looked extremely cowardly.
