Mrs. Feng had a smile on her face and nodded in agreement.
"We were rude. Miss Gong will just go and make arrangements. I'll be waiting for you here."
Lin Mengya nodded slightly, let Jun'er stay there, and took Bai Su back to the room to change clothes.
These things were all prepared in advance and it didn't take long originally.
Lin Mengya also wanted to leave a good impression in front of Princess Xiao, so she didn't dress too coquettishly, but dressed refreshingly and appropriately.
After getting on the carriage at Prince Xiao's residence, it swayed for a while before arriving at another bustling street in Longdu.
Because Longdu is larger than the average capital city, the best location on each street will house at most one or two powerful aristocratic families.
The street before the Gong family was like this, and the street they were on now was one of the most prosperous main streets in Longdu.
The carriage stopped in front of a magnificent house. The old lady knocked on the door from outside the carriage.
"Miss Gong, we have arrived."
Bai Su opened the car door from inside and helped Lin Mengya get out.
The Gaomen compound is many times more luxurious than the Gong family's mansion.
Although when the house was built, the Gong family was already one of the invisible richest people in Weiguo.
However, this is the Dragon City, the territory of His Majesty the Emperor, so whether you are a dragon or a tiger, you have to restrain yourself.
But Prince Xiao's mansion was extremely luxurious.
Even though it has accumulated some time now, it does not cover up Xiao Wang's flamboyant personality at all.
No wonder Princess Ma, who came from a wealthy family, could not get favored by Prince Xiao. Such a perverse person either likes cute and cute playthings, or he likes explosive women who are in the same category as him.
The gentleness and pride of young ladies from aristocratic families were always incompatible with him.
"Miss Gong, please come this way."
Mrs. Feng brought her into the house and led her through the verandah to the backyard.
But what Lin Mengya didn't expect was that besides herself, there were other people in the backyard.
"Princess, princess, and the palace girl are here."
Mrs. Feng invited her to a flower hall. Although the front and back were open, it didn't feel cold because of the stove.
Apart from her, there were five other women sitting here first.
Among these five people, three were dressed like women. Moreover, she has a beautiful appearance, but she has a mean look in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows. At a glance, you can tell that she is the kind of person in a big family who likes to be jealous.
The remaining two seemed young, with good looks and temperament.
She has an oval face, and her eyebrows are somewhat similar to Gu Pan's, but slightly more mature than her, but still as pretty as a peach.
She could guess that this was the most favored concubine, right
But the one sitting next to her was elegant and quiet, with no makeup on her pretty face, and she looked like a pure and beautiful lady.
Lin Mengya also roughly guessed the identity of this person. Unexpectedly, they were also here. It was really interesting.
When the five people saw her coming in, although their expressions changed slightly, none of them spoke to her.
Lin Mengya only sneered in her heart, but her face became more calm.
Not long after, Mrs. Feng came out again and said to Lin Mengya with a kind smile.
"My princess and the princess have been waiting for you for a long time. Miss Gong, please come this way."
After that, he was ready to take her away.
At this time, the three women behind them became anxious. The leader stood up and shouted loudly.
"Mother Feng, didn't you always say that the princess and the princess are occasionally cold and can't even see us family members? How come she, an outsider, can-"
Mrs. Feng was also a person familiar with the market. After giving the woman a cold look, she said unceremoniously.
"Miss Gong is a distinguished guest, and she cannot be matched by ordinary people. Jiang, please don't break the rules."
Granny Feng's warning was obviously very effective.
The beautiful concubine named Jiang Yin'er could only swallow her resentment alive.
Lin Mengya didn't want to care about what was going on in Prince Xiao's palace, but what happened today made her understand one thing.
Prince Xiao is a man who is greedy for beauty, but Princess Xiao is an orthodox lady from a famous family.
This led to the fact that although her status in the palace was high, those concubines, relying on Prince Xiao's favor, would definitely use their tactics to criticize the princess in secret.
The current situation is a bit difficult for the princess.
However, this is not a bad thing.
As Mrs. Feng walked through the flower hall, the two of them came to a solemn and elegant courtyard.
As soon as he entered the door, Gu Pan rushed out of the house impatiently like a gust of wind.
"Gong Ya, you're finally here! I can't wait any longer and go out to find you!"
Lin Mengya smiled and greeted Gu Pan. Although they were in a foreign country, seeing her so lively made Lin Mengya feel a little better.
The two of them walked into the inner room together, and Lin Mengya saw Princess Ma for the first time.
She is said to be Prince Xiao's principal concubine, but she is no more than thirty years old.
It is the age when a woman is full of charm and exudes mature charm.
It's a pity that he was trapped in the deep house compound prematurely.
Lin Mengya felt panicked because of Princess Xiao.
"I've met the princess."
"Get up quickly, Mother Feng, and watch your seat."
Ma's voice is very beautiful, and it looks like the kind of voice that has been carefully trained.
After thanking him, she sat in the inner room.
Only then could we clearly see the appearance of Princess Xiao, Mrs. Ma.
Ma Beichen's appearance was masculine yet handsome, but the princess in front of him looked nothing like him.
Lin Mengya looked at her as if she saw the lady in the painting.
Feminine, elegant and noble.
Especially those brown eyes, which were filled with tranquility, but were too lonely and lacked life.
"I've heard from Xiaochen that you are a very interesting woman. When we meet today, it's no wonder that Chu Yan likes you so much."
Lin Mengya was stunned for a moment, and then she remembered that the real name of Prince Xiao's legitimate daughter was Qi Chuyan.
At that moment, he immediately said with a smile.
"The princess is too flattering, but Mr. Ma also helped me a lot at that time. It's just that I left in a hurry and forgot to thank Mr. Ma."
It seems that Ma Beichen has a good relationship with his sister.
Otherwise, he wouldn't have written to his sister to talk about such a trivial matter.
But fun? What the hell kind of evaluation is this
"You have a tacit understanding. He said in the letter that he had done you a big favor and asked me to find a chance to thank you on his behalf."
Lin Mengya rolled her eyes in her heart. What a big deal, it's just enough to add trouble.
But she knew that this was a good opportunity to get closer to Princess Xiao.
"Then I really have to listen attentively. Princess, please tell me. If I can do it, I will die without mercy."
Princess Xiao smiled and waved her hand.
"It's not that serious. He just said that he hopes you can spend more time in the house to accompany me to relieve your boredom. This child is so old, and he is still so naughty."
Lin Mengya was stunned, then nodded in agreement.
"Since it is what my benefactor said, I have no reason to refuse. Besides, the princess and I also hit it off, and we will definitely visit each other often in the future."
Lin Mengya understood what Ma Beichen must have said in the letter.
Otherwise, the princess would not be able to show kindness to herself easily.
After Gu Pan eagerly listened to the conversation between the two, he immediately pulled her sleeves, looking extremely happy.
"If that's the case, wouldn't I be able to see you more often? This is a good idea, really good!"
She has a smile on her face, and you can tell she is a lively little girl.
Lin Mengya accidentally saw a look of joy in Princess Xiao's eyes.
It seemed that the reason why Princess Xiao was so gentle and kind to her was simply because she wanted to maintain her relationship with Gu Pan.
Also, although she was a royal concubine, she had no children and was not favored by the prince.
If I don't capture Gu Pan, I'm afraid I'll be miserable in my later years.
In a big family, family ties are weak and interests are the most important.
Lin Mengya knew that she didn't need to be so clear-cut. After all, her purpose wasn't that simple.
"Princess, what should we do with those people?"
Gu Pan came and talked to her, chattering non-stop.
But at the same time, Mrs. Feng's whisper could not be hidden from her ears.
Princess Xiao didn't reply, probably because of the presence of the two of them.
Lin Mengya thought for a while and asked Gu Pan secretly.
"Why don't we go out and talk for a while? It just so happens that I have something else to ask you."
Gu Pan had been waiting for this to happen for a long time, nodded immediately, stood up and said simply.
"Mom, I have some new tricks that I want to show Gong Ya. Can we go first?"
Princess Xiao nodded, and Gu Pan immediately pulled Lin Mengya and rushed out of the room.
However, the two of them deliberately bypassed the flower hall and walked to an elegant small courtyard to the east, where they were taken to her house by Gu Pan.
"It's easier for me to talk here. I was called over by my mother early in the morning. I was really bored!"
The house has her own style, and Lin Mengya likes it very much after seeing it.
But now, it’s not just for appreciation.
"Princess Princess, when I came here, I saw a few people coming outside. Don't you need to go greet me?"
Sure enough, Gu Pan showed a tireless expression, wrinkled his nose and said.
"Who cares about them? They are still here, and they still chase them here! Huh, how shameless they are!"
She had heard before that King Xiao's legitimate daughter had returned and that the concubine had been suppressed.
But the current situation seems not to be the case.
After thinking about it, she showed a slightly puzzled smile.
"If the princess doesn't like it, just kick her out. Why bother working so hard for someone who isn't important?"
"Forget it, let me tell you the truth. Three of those five women are my father's concubines. However, they are all old and lustful and have long been forgotten by my father. The remaining Of those two, one is my eldest sister, and the other is..."
