Marrying into a rich family by mistake, it is difficult to be a mistress

Chapter 718: A little hint, and he immediately understood

Ji Shuangshuang is still thinking hard about a good solution.

Suddenly, there was a sound of footsteps outside.

"Madam, why are you here?"

"I'm here to bring something to Miss Ji." The head nanny walked in with a smile.

She was holding a food box in her hands.

"Miss Ji, the kitchen has just cooked some bird's nests. The princess said she would send some to you. This thing is very nourishing. If a woman eats it, her skin will become more delicate and her face will become more beautiful."

Ji Shuangshuang had nothing to worry about her appearance, but compared to the ladies in the imperial capital, her skin looked a little rough.

Especially when she met Ji Chuhe that day, she was quite shocked.

Because Ji Chuhe was so white and tender, she really looked like a peeled egg, and just as described in the book, with skin as white as ice and bones as beautiful as jade.

Ji Chuhe probably stays at home every day, unlike her who is outside every day, exposed to the wind and sun, so she looks so tender and fresh.

"Bring it here." Ji Shuangshuang responded.

I usually don’t like eating these, but today I ate them obediently.

"Miss Ji, when I came in just now, I saw that you seemed to be worried. Is there something that makes you unhappy?"

Ji Shuangshuang glanced at the head nanny. The friendly tone made her feel somewhat familiar.

Besides, the head nanny was the princess's confidant, and she was not on guard against her at all.

"I'm worried about my own marriage."

"Miss Ji is really willing to marry the prince?"

"Yes, I believe in the feeling at first sight. My heart beat faster when I first saw the prince. I didn't have that feeling at all when I saw the emperor. What's more, my mind is full of the prince's figure now. Mammy, I feel like I'm suffering from lovesickness." Ji Shuangshuang held the mammy's hand tightly, as if she wanted the mammy to empathize with her feelings at the moment.

"Speaking of the prince, this old servant suddenly thought of something about the prince."

"What's the matter?" Ji Shuangshuang suddenly became interested.

"Does Miss Ji know about the Duke Rong's Mansion?"

"I know that Duke Rong is the prince's maternal grandfather."

"The eldest son of the Rongguo Mansion, who is also the eldest uncle of the prince, has a niece whose wife has been raised in the Rongguo Mansion for several years. Her name is Liao Yunfei. The prince came to the imperial capital from Huaiyang to celebrate the birthday of the Empress Dowager, who was still the empress dowager at the time. Liao Yunfei fell in love with the prince at first sight. The prince's wife did not agree to take her as a concubine. Later, she actually became the prince's concubine."

"There is such a thing! However, there are only two concubines in the prince's mansion now, one is Aunt Dong and the other is Aunt Lin. There is no concubine with the surname Liao."

"That's a story for later. She was not chaste and did something that violated the law. She was divorced by the prince and is now imprisoned."

"Mammy, do you know how she became the prince's concubine?" Ji Shuangshuang was quite interested in this.

"This..." The head nanny hesitated to speak.

This made Ji Shuangshuang very anxious. She quickly held the head nanny's hand and said, "Mammy, is there anything that cannot be said?"

"No, Miss Ji, it's mainly because of this matter. It's hard to talk about it."

"Did she use some dishonorable means?"

"Yes." Mammy nodded. "I have also heard rumors from outside, I don't know if it is true. Anyway, the rice has been cooked. However, Liao Yunfei is lucky. She could have been a concubine of the prince. She played the piano very well, and happened to be in the limelight at the Queen Mother's birthday banquet. The Queen Mother rewarded her and made her the prince's concubine."

"It's already been done..." Ji Shuangshuang's cheeks turned red involuntarily, "Isn't it said that young ladies in the capital are very reserved? How could they do such a thing?"

"If she didn't do this, the Duke's Mansion would have arranged another marriage for her, and she would have no chance to be with the person she loves in this life."

"That's true!" Ji Shuangshuang finished the bird's nest in no time, and looked at the nanny, hesitant to speak, "Mammy, there is one thing I want to ask, how can we make it a done deal between the two of us?"

"This is a simple matter." The head nanny whispered a few words into Ji Shuangshuang's ear.

"Oh, so that's how it is." Ji Shuangshuang nodded in understanding.

"Miss Ji, I will take my leave now. If you need anything, just ask someone to find me."

"Okay, thank you, Ma'am." Ji Shuangshuang waved to the ma'am in a good mood.

As soon as the nanny left, she left the house.

Looking at her back, the head nanny immediately went to report to Princess Ning Xi.

Princess Ning Xi was holding her daughter and playing with her.

"Princess." The head nanny called softly.

"How is it? Did she listen to it?"

"She listened. As soon as I reminded her, she left the house immediately."

"When she's ready, I'll go look for Madam Chang who's watching the fire from the other side of the river without any hesitation."

Princess Ning Xi could see that Chang Ru suddenly held this grand event just to give Xiao Wenxuan an opportunity.

Although Chang Ru was pregnant, she had fallen out of favor, so she definitely hoped that Ji Shuangshuang would enter the palace to divert Wei Yan's favor.

This was exactly what she wanted.

……

In order to host this grand event, Chang Ru redecorated the training ground, replaced all the archery targets with new ones, and had colorful silks tied around the horse farm.

This was also the first grand event after Xiao Wenxuan ascended the throne.

Xiao Wenxuan sat in the main seat and looked at the lively scene in front of him, searching the crowd with his eyes.

Soon, he saw a touch of red in the crowd.

Chang Ru sat next to Xiao Wenxuan. Although she was not officially canonized, she was still his legal wife.

Wei Yan is not qualified to sit in this position and can only sit behind Chang Ru.

Princess Ning Xi and Ji Chuhe sat on both sides of the main seat.

There is another seat next to Princess Ning Xi, which is reserved for Ji Shuangshuang.

Rong Qingqing came over quietly and sat beside Ji Chuhe.

Further down are the dignitaries ranked according to their status.

Today's event is full of young people, and they look full of energy.

"That woman in red must be General Ji's daughter, right?" someone in the crowd asked.

"Yes, that's her."

"She is as bold as any man!"

"I heard that she is not only good at riding and shooting, but also has excellent martial arts skills."

"This is the first time I feel that such a heroic woman is so attractive. She is much better than those delicate young ladies who never leave the house every day."

"Look, the group of young men surrounding her must be thinking the same thing."

Ji Shuangshuang rode on the horse and looked around.

I didn’t see Xiao Yan’an.

"Isn't the prince going to participate in today's competition?" she asked a young man beside her.

"I just checked the groupings and it seems that the Crown Prince's name is not there. The Crown Prince probably won't be participating."

Ji Shuangshuang felt a sense of loss.

"Miss Ji, the prince is there!"
