Yao Ruolan asked curiously, "Is this Miss Sun you are talking about the beloved daughter of Sun Dongfang, the second assistant minister of the imperial court?"

Qiu Xiner nodded, "Yes! It's her!"

Yao Ruolan smiled and said, "No wonder, Miss Sun has grown up in luxury and wealth since she was a child. Her food, clothing and daily expenses are all of the highest standard. She lives a more luxurious life than those unpopular princesses in the palace! The money she spends on clothes alone every year is equivalent to the annual salary of a third-rank official! No wonder she is not interested in marrying the second prince."

Qiu Xiner said, "But her father, Lord Sun, really wants her! The Sun family and the Cao family have always been in the same boat. If we can marry our daughter to the future emperor, it will naturally be the icing on the cake!"

Yao Ruolan: "But haven't you heard that Miss Sun has always had a special liking for my brother..."

"what!"

When these words were spoken, Qiu Xiner and Qinghe were both shocked!

Especially when Qiu Xiner heard that her beloved was being targeted, she asked in panic, "Do your parents know about this?"

Yao Ruolan shook her head. "Someone proposed marriage to my brother before, but he declined every time! My mother asked him what kind of person he wanted to find, and he said he would not consider it for now and would wait until he passed the imperial examination."

When Qiu Xiner heard this, she thought: Wow! He is really an ambitious young talent! It's a pity that he doesn't practice martial arts, otherwise I would ask my father to find him a good job!

Qing He asked curiously, "How did Miss Sun know Mr. Yao?"

Yao Ruolan said, "What a coincidence! One time, Duke Qing held a family banquet and cordially invited Dad and brother to attend. Miss Sun also went there and fell in love with brother at first sight! Soon after she returned, she sent an official matchmaker to propose marriage, but Dad politely declined! Later, when Concubine Cao found out about this, she called Lord Sun into the palace and gave him a severe lecture, saying that girls from aristocratic families were not allowed to marry without her permission!"

Qiu Xin'er said shyly, "Ruolan, what kind of girl does your brother like?"

……

Prince Jing's Mansion.

Late at night, a dark shadow quietly came to the gate of East Garden. After looking around and seeing that no one was paying attention to him, he quietly knocked on the gate.

After the door opened, the night maid asked, "Who are you looking for?"

The shadow whispered, "Please go and tell the princess that Madam Zhao who is beside Madam Zeng has something important to tell her."

The old woman said with a stern face, "You wait."

After saying that, he closed the door.

Nanny Zhao looked around nervously, afraid of being discovered.

A night patrol soldier came over from a distance, and frightened Zhao Ma Ma so much that she secretly cried out that something was wrong. She almost wanted to run away, but at that moment the door opened, and the maid who had just entered to answer the question said, "Come in! The princess is waiting for you inside."

Nanny Zhao slipped in quickly as if she had been pardoned, and the heavy stone in her heart finally fell to the ground!

She wiped the sweat from her forehead and followed the maid all the way to the main room of the East Garden. When she came to the bottom of the steps, she saw a maid coming out and asked, "What do you want to see the princess for?"

Nanny Zhao looked around and said softly, "This matter is of great importance. I want to talk to the princess in person."

The maid frowned and said, "The princess has already gone to bed. It is inconvenient to disturb her for such a small matter. If you have anything to say, just tell me directly!"

After a moment's silence, Madam Zhao said, "I'll come back another day!" Then she turned around and was about to leave.

At this time, a maid came out and said, "The princess is awake now, come in!"

Nanny Zhao hurriedly turned around, went up the stairs and followed the maid inside.

Princess Jing was sitting in the living room in her casual clothes. She looked at Aunt Zhao who was kneeling in front of her and asked, "What do you want from me?"

Madam Zhao kowtowed and said, "My name is Zhao, and I have served Madam Zeng for many years. I came here today to report to you because I know a shocking secret and I am afraid I will be silenced!"

Princess Jing was confused after hearing this and frowned, "Zeng Jingxiang has always been kind to others, why would she want to kill you to silence you?"

"Princess, you were deceived by her! She is not a simple person! I'm afraid that even Madam Du is not as cunning as her!"

Princess Jing was stunned after hearing this. In her impression, Zeng Jingxiang was very quiet and low-key. Because of her plain appearance and lack of talent, she was not very favored in the palace. Even her own children, Miao Yiming and Miao Xinying, were not taken seriously in front of the prince. They were not as spoiled as Du Lianjun and Jingying, so Princess Jing seldom paid attention to the three of them.

Hearing the nanny beside her say this today, Princess Jing couldn't help but feel very surprised and hurriedly said, "Tell me the whole story from beginning to end, and don't lie!"

"Yes!"

After bowing her head, Madam Zhao said, "Mrs. Zeng has a plain appearance and a plain background. She was not valued by the prince in the palace, so the princess mistakenly thought that she was a trouble-maker! In fact, this is not the case. Although this woman appears to be gentle and docile on the surface, she is very ambitious. It's just that she is not favored, so she has to pretend to be virtuous!

It happened that Mrs. Du had just entered the palace at that time. Because she was smart and well-behaved, and very good at pleasing others, she was soon promoted from a third-class maid to a second-class maid. She became a favorite of yours, Princess, and served you all day long.

But at that time, Prince Jing often went to Zeng's room to rest, and was very concerned about her two children, but he was often not in a good mood towards your legitimate children. As time went by, the servants in the mansion knew that Madam Zeng was very favored, and her two sons Yiming and Xinying were also valued, so the servants also liked to go and flatter her in order to get a reward. "

Princess Jing remembered this and nodded, "That's right! At that time, the prince really doted on Zeng for a while!"

Although she was unhappy at that time, she couldn't do anything to the mother and her two children because she wanted to maintain her image as a magnanimous wife! She could only secretly get angry and think of a way...

Just after waking up from that nap, Mrs. Du was helping him wash and dress. Prince Jing came over to discuss the matter of requesting titles for Yiming and Xinying, and he noticed the gentle and sensible Mrs. Du at first sight.

At that time, Princess Jing was struggling to find a good strategy to deal with Zeng's mother and son. So she gave the maid to Prince Jing, hoping to divide the favor of Zeng's mother and son. She thought that Du was her own person, was usually gentle and well-behaved, and had no foundation in the mansion. Even if she was favored in the future, she would not be able to cause any big waves. So she gave her to her husband.

Who knew that this move was exactly what Prince Jing wanted, and he openly took Du as his concubine!

The Madam Zeng, who was originally just a cover, was neglected again, and the newly appointed Madam Du became the hot new favorite. Even her daughter with her ex-husband was named a princess!

Princess Jing, who discovered she had been deceived, finally woke up from her dream and realized that she had fallen into her husband's trap!

Unfortunately, the matter was done and could not be reversed. In the end, he could only watch helplessly as the vixen mother and daughter bewitched the prince!
