And An Xishui, whom she had always looked down upon, was still the aloof princess.
She vaguely heard that the prince might not come back after going to Beiguan this time. An Yihua felt a little happy because An Xijie would be a widow sooner or later.
But when she was introduced into the inner hall and saw An Xici sitting at the top, she could no longer be happy.
Not to mention the grand hall that is a hundred times more luxurious than the Fifth Prince's Mansion, An Xibi, the legitimate Crown Princess, sits in a high position, wearing a red dress embroidered with phoenix patterns, which only An Xibi is qualified to wear due to her status.
And the golden steps on her head were so novel that she had never heard of them or seen them before.
She used to think that red and gold colors like this were too tacky, but after becoming an aunt, she realized that these colors that she didn't like at all were something she could no longer wear or use.
She had always been superior to An Xici in the past, but now she was standing at the bottom, looking up at the superior woman, and her heart felt like it was being cut by a knife.
"I've seen you, Crown Princess." After a long time, An Yihua finally saluted, but she didn't use the word of humility. She really couldn't say the word "maid and concubine".
Now she is just the aunt in the fifth prince's house. Compared with An Xishu, she is as different as heaven and earth.
An Xishui was too lazy to argue with her about these false etiquettes, but Lan'er smiled and added: "Aunt An, why are you so polite? Our queen is very nostalgic. After all, you are also a young lady who left the Hou Mansion. You are not polite. We
Your Majesty will not blame you."
An Yihua's face instantly turned red when she called Aunt An directly, and what she said about the young lady leaving the Hou Mansion was more like a thorn piercing An Yihua's heart.
Lan'er said it with a smile, but every word she said was mocking her for not loving herself. Even if she is a concubine, there is no reason to rush to be a concubine even if she is a daughter of a noble family! Being a concubine is just that, not even a concubine.
I didn’t even get along with my concubines, I only got along with my aunt. Wow, I really don’t know what to say.
An Xici glanced at Lan'er, she had made progress recently, and her speaking skills were getting better and better.
If you were to ask Lan'er who he hated the most in the Hou Mansion, it would undoubtedly be An Yihua. So now that there is such a good opportunity to trouble An Yihua, how could Lan'er miss it?
An Xici saw An Yihua blushing and lowering her head, looking like she wanted to stuff herself into a crack in the ground, but she didn't sympathize with her at all. Not to mention that she was a very unsympathetic person.
Even if there were, people like An Yihua were not worthy of sympathy. Although she didn't know much about the affairs of the Marquis of Jingguo, she also knew that because her mother was indifferent, her father had left the marriage affairs of several girls to his sister-in-law Huangfu.
Yuanrou went to do it. Huangfu Yuanrou is the princess of Prince Li's Mansion. Although Prince Li returned to the fiefdom to retire a few years ago, Huangfu Yuanrou grew up in the capital since she was a child. She is well-informed and has a good understanding of the powerful families in the capital.
I am very familiar with it. It is not difficult to find suitable marriages for the girls of the Hou Mansion. Therefore, as An Yihua's identity as the daughter of the Hou Mansion, there is no need to hurry up to be concubines for others, and do it yourself.
He doesn't deserve sympathy either.
But when An Xibi called An Yihua, he didn't mean to force her to stand, so he asked directly: "If you have anything to say, just tell me!"
