The reason why the Cheng'en Mansion is still remembered among the nobles in the capital is simply because of the influence of the Empress Dowager. Everyone knows that as long as the Empress Dowager Tian is alive, the Cheng'en Mansion will be prosperous. No one expected that while the Empress Dowager Tian is still alive, the Cheng'en Mansion would be finished. Everyone was shocked for a while.
When the news of Tian Xun's death reached Princess Fenyang's ears, Princess Chun'an rushed into the room from outside and looked at her with wide eyes: "Mother, do you know that Tian Xun is dead!"
Princess Fenyang was discussing something with Mr. Cui. Seeing Princess Chun'an acting rashly, she was about to get angry. But when she heard what Princess Chun'an said, she was stunned again. She suspected that she had misheard and asked back, "What did you say? Who died?"
Tian Xun had been following Queen Mother Tian around a while ago, and anyone with a discerning eye could see that Queen Mother Tian favored Tian Xun. With the eyesight of Princess Fenyang, how could she not see that Tian Xun was interested in Xiao Heng? She was still thinking about it at the time, and planned to make good use of Tian Xun as a chess piece.
But now, this chess piece has become useless before it has even made a few moves
"It happened just yesterday. I heard that he died of an acute illness." Princess Chun'an said quickly, "But who would believe it if I tell others? He was a healthy person, and he seemed fine all the time. How could he suddenly say that he had an acute illness?"
yes.
Princess Fenyang raised her eyebrows, lost in thought for a while, and then she curled her lips and sneered, "The Queen Mother has always liked this girl, and everyone knows that she is favoring her. If it weren't for this girl's behavior that offended the Queen Mother, His Majesty would never touch her. So, I'm afraid that the fire in the Cining Palace some time ago that burned the tablet of Princess Jingming was related to Tian Xun."
Otherwise, it would be impossible to explain Empress Dowager Tian’s attitude.
Empress Dowager Tian has always been partial to her family. Tian Chengzhong is a good-for-nothing. If he hadn't relied on Empress Dowager Tian, would he have been able to hold the position of Duke of the State? Now Empress Dowager Tian doesn't even care about him. She is obviously very angry. After thinking about it, there is nothing else that can make her so angry except the matter of the shrewd Princess.
After figuring it out, Princess Fenyang sneered nonchalantly, "I thought she was smart, but it turns out she's just a useless piece of shit. Forget it, she's courting her own death. Even for the sake of the Queen Mother's face, the palace has to say she's seriously ill. What else can they say?"
Princess Chun'an was indignant: "I think this matter has something to do with that unlucky Su Yao. She and Tian Xun were both the Eleventh Princess' study companions. I heard a long time ago that the Eleventh Princess didn't like Su Yao and was only close to Tian Xun. How could such a stubborn person stand being compared to others and being overshadowed?"
Princess Fenyang glanced at Princess Chun'an, then looked down at her nails. After a long while, she reminded him calmly, "This has nothing to do with you. You can help by taking care of your own business. You are not allowed to interfere in this matter. Go back."
Princess Chun'an bit her lip unwillingly. She didn't know how long Princess Fenyang wanted her to endure. If she continued to endure like this, there would soon be no one like her in the capital.
Princess Fenyang was actually very upset. After suppressing Princess Chun'an and sending her away, she slammed the table and couldn't help but sneer: "This is really weird. Could it be that Su Yao's horoscope is really incompatible with the noble ladies in the capital? She is the one who is incompatible with herself, but she is the one who is incompatible with others. How can she be so powerful?!"
Princess Fenyang kept telling herself that Su Yao was just a toy, and that he was jumping around now only because he had the support of the Su and He families, and Xiao Heng as his backer. If one day she could succeed and bring down Xiao Heng, the Su and He families combined would not be able to protect Su Yao.
When the nest is overturned, all the eggs will remain intact. By then, no matter how sharp-tongued and scheming Su Yao is, he will just be a clown jumping around.
But now, she really couldn't bear it anymore.
These noble ladies and young ladies in the capital city, no one knows what they grew up eating. In the past, they have never lost to anyone in a fight, and they are all more competitive than each other. But for some reason, when these people meet Su Yao, they are all useless.
Mr. Cui coughed and said, "Why should the princess bother with such a minor character? Not to mention that she is only a county lady now, she is not even as good as a county lady's finger. Even if she can really become the Crown Prince's Consort in the future, so what? Wasn't the Crown Princess more noble than her back then? That's all."
Until now, who can still remember Song Ange
Princess Fenyang seemed to have really seen Su Yao's miserable state. She finally relaxed a little and snorted coldly, "This person is like a mosquito, making a lot of noise around my ears. Although he can't shake me, it's annoying to hear him."
"That's easy." Mr. Cui smiled without even looking up. "When a girl grows up, she will always get married. Even a princess will have to marry one day, let alone a county lady. After getting married, can she still show her face in public?"
Before getting married, a girl might be taken shopping by her father or brother, stay in a hot spring villa for a while, or have the opportunity to be a study companion. But the life of a married woman is monotonous. When you are just married, it is not your turn to take care of the household chores, and you are not required to be responsible for welcoming and seeing off guests when going out. Even if you want to go out to socialize, your elders have to give you a break and take you with them before you have the opportunity to go out.
After getting married, they have to be busy giving birth to a son. After the child is born, they can't even step out of the house for a year or two.
No matter how remarkable a woman you are, after you get married and have children, you will become just like everyone else.
Mr. Cui didn't understand why these noble ladies had to compete with Su Yao. After all, she didn't have much time to jump around.
Princess Fenyang was immediately inspired by Mr. Cui's words and came up with an idea. She shook her head and said to Mr. Cui, "Forget it, let's not talk about this for now. Is my third brother back?"
Previously, Mr. Cui asked Princess Fenyang to help contact Mr. Bai. Now he has contacted him, but Mr. Bai's whereabouts are erratic. Mr. Cui has gone out and has not returned yet. If he misses this opportunity, he doesn't know when he will be able to see him again.
Mr. Cui shook his head: "I have sent someone to ask, but the Third Master has not made any move yet."
Princess Fenyang frowned and sighed. She knew that Mr. Cui San was very angry about Cui Yuandao's betrayal and wanted to kill him, but Cui Yuandao was notorious after all. It would be impossible to attack him in the capital. This was not something that could be resolved in a short time.
