Mother is more valuable than her child, and this is clearly demonstrated in the Zhuang Mansion. With the child in her belly, Aunt Mei changed her status from an unattractive Hu Ji to a future wife-to-be. Aunt Mei and Mrs. Zhou were laughing and talking, Zhuang Shiyang was naturally very proud when he saw the harmonious appearance of the concubines in the house. Master Zhang was actually among the guests, saying he wanted to see his sister-in-law. On such an occasion, Zhuang Yushan would naturally come back. Wei Rufeng, as the noble son-in-law of the Zhuang Mansion, was naturally invited. King Wei and the Seventh Prince also came. For a time, the Zhuang Mansion was more lively than ever. It's strange to say that Zhuang Shiyang is only a fifth-grade official, but all the guests are high-ranking officials. It's not clear what's going on.
In Qingqiu Garden, Ji Lan was combing Han Yan's hair. When he heard the maids talking outside, he couldn't help but wonder: "They say all the dignitaries are here, why didn't the prince come?"
Han Yan was stunned. He hadn't seen Fu Yunxi for several days. He didn't even ask someone to send a message. Thinking of this, a faint emotion emerged in his heart, some dissatisfaction, some doubts, and some longing. . It is said that one day is like three autumns apart. Han Yan thinks that he doesn't like Fu Yunxi that much, but he still misses her in his heart.
After getting along with him these days, Han Yan has a better understanding of what kind of person Fu Yunxi is. Although this person looks cold on the outside, he is actually very considerate. If he has not appeared these days, he must be busy with his own affairs. If we encounter any trouble... If we encounter any trouble... Han Yan was stunned. How did he think of this? He couldn't help but smile. If he really encountered any trouble, with Fu Yunxi's methods, I'm afraid... I can sort it out on my own.
Ji Lan was still chattering: "I heard that the second young lady was very proud after she came back. All the maids were saying how much Prince Wei doted on her. That was because they had not seen the prince doting on the young lady. The prince's status was comparable to that of Prince Wei. It’s too high, they’re a bunch of indifferent people.”
Han Yan laughed out loud: "How can you be so vain at such a young age? They can compete among themselves and don't pay attention."
However, Shu Hong, who was silent at the same time, couldn't help but say: "Your Majesty, can you compare to Crown Prince Wei? It's really hard to compare a jade with a stone."
Han Yan was stunned, but he didn't expect Shu Hong to think so too. She suddenly realized that she was indeed a bit cold towards Fu Yunxi. When everyone thought that she had taken advantage of such a good husband like Fu Yunxi, she did not think that Fu Yunxi himself was something to be proud of. She could use the name of Princess Xuanqing to bluff, threaten, and even gain convenience, but all of this was because of Fu Yunxi.
Fu Yunxi is a resource in itself, a resource that is more resounding than "thousands of acres of fertile land and countless gold and silver." All women have some vanity. Once she figured this out, Han Yan smiled slightly: "Since you value the prince so much, you would be sorry for me, the princess, if you don't use the prince's name for fun. Identity."
Ji Lan and Shu Hong were stunned, then raised their heads and looked at Han Yan, very puzzled.
Han Yan patted her skirt and stood up: "It's so lively today. If you don't join in the fun, wouldn't it be said that the future princess of the Xuanqing Palace is ignorant of etiquette? Let's go." Her smile dimmed: "Anyway We all have to meet.”
In the main hall of Zhuang Mansion, the Zhou sisters were talking to Zhuang Yushan, and Zhuang Shiyang flattered King Wei, the Seventh Prince, Grand Master Zhang and others. The men were chatting and the women were laughing. People who didn't know saw it and wondered which family was so lively and harmonious, and where could one see the protrusion of the blade hidden under the calmness.
As soon as Han Yan walked into the hall, everyone's chatter unconsciously became quieter.
The fourth young lady of the Zhuang Mansion is now the person who is the most beloved of King Xuanqing. I heard that she even saved the prince's life. No matter what, she cannot be treated as an ordinary boudoir woman.
Han Yan was wearing a light apricot-colored thin coat today, a fragrant-colored large mandarin jacket, and a blouse with eight treasures and golden flowers sprinkled with hundreds of butterflies. Her long hair was pulled into two round buns, and she had a blue field Fishtail hairpin, a green bracelet on the wrist, very good quality. She has fair skin, a brimming smile, and her eyes are curved into crescent shapes, making people look like they can't help but laugh too. His lips were slightly raised, as if he were smiling, but there was a hint of ridicule in that smile. His dark eyes were like fine gems, with the light of insight into everything. This is not a luxurious outfit, it can even be considered simple and plain, but even such an ordinary outfit cannot conceal the nobility of her body. She stood among the crowd, as if she stood out from the crowd, immediately outperforming the others.
Zhuang Yushan looked at Han Yan standing there, with a trace of jealousy flashing in his eyes. He deliberately leaned closer to Wei Rufeng and said in a soft voice: "Why did the fourth sister come so late? I thought I was doing Xuan Qing Princess, you don’t take us sisters seriously anymore.”
Han Yan smiled slightly, but did not retort. He just stared at her quietly. Zhuang Yushan gradually lost his composure, just because she did not expect that Han Yan would embarrass her in public. In the past, although Han Yan was at odds with her, he still had a decent reputation, at least he would not embarrass her in front of so many people. But she didn't understand that Han Yan's status had changed after experiencing such things. In the past, she only did it as a last resort. Now that she doesn't have to compromise and has Fu Yunxi as her protector, she will naturally not show mercy to her.
The atmosphere froze for a moment. Zhuang Yushan was extremely embarrassed and hated Han Yan deeply in his heart. He had no choice but to turn his eyes to Wei Rufeng for help. However, he was stunned when he saw Wei Rufeng. Wei Rufeng was staring closely at this moment. Han Yan, there is no one else in his eyes.
Zhuang Yushan felt overwhelmingly uncomfortable in his heart. Ever since he entered Prince Wei's palace, Prince Wei disliked her for her low background and never took her seriously. Wei Rufeng would only use her as a tool to vent his desires. Zhuang Yushan knew that Wei Rufeng The person in Rufeng's heart was Han Yan. After her initial crush on Wei Rufeng, she gradually realized the truth and no longer was as obsessed with him as before. She only regarded him as someone she relied on to consolidate her position. The target, but Wei Rufeng didn't give her this chance at all. Wei Rufeng did not see her in his eyes, and her marriage into Prince Wei's palace was no different from being a widow. In fact, she had to endure that the woman her husband loved was the thorn in her side.
Han Yan didn't know so many thoughts in her heart. Just looking at Zhuang Yushan's hateful eyes towards her, she naturally understood that this sister didn't have any good ideas in mind.
Wei Rufeng has never taken his eyes away from Han Yan since she came in. For some reason, he always feels that this inconspicuous woman will be different every time he meets her. . As she grows older, she becomes more beautiful, smarter, and more irresistible. And the nobility in her body gradually became unstoppable, and nothing could be done to cover it up. It seemed that the nobility was born from her bones. She was clearly an ordinary girl, and every move she made looked like an elegant aristocrat. That person... that person is so similar.
