The Favored Concubine: The Doting Prince

Ever since the Literature Museum published the "History of Enlightenment", all the major forces in the court have been very contemptuous of it. It took a lot of effort to produce something for little kids to read, and Chen Liang's kids never liked reading.

They said this, but they all bought, asked for or received a copy and put it on their desks. They read it carefully and picked out some mistakes so that they could tease those useless writers.

Yuan Mo bought a copy and locked himself in the study room to study it for a whole day. The book was very thin and Yuan Mo read it many times. Everything from the cover to the content had changed, becoming subtle and unnoticeable. It was not a drastic or ostentatious change, but a change that people could slowly accept and understand.

Yuan Mo had a lot of ideas, but because he was not the person in charge, he could not say much. He kept them in his heart, like a charcoal fire that was about to go out, which was faintly hot even though there was no flame.

Now they could finally have nothing to worry about. Just as the two were discussing whether or not to include the literature from the far wilderness, the faint sound of music in the yard suddenly became louder and the rhythm became more cheerful. Everyone knew that it was time to prepare for dinner, and they all walked towards the middle yard at the same time.

As expected, the servants had changed the layout of the courtyard, removed the snacks, and replaced them with a few sturdy rosewood carved wooden tables, on which the tableware had been prepared and a few appetizing and refreshing side dishes had been served. Everyone was led by the servants to their seats.

There were several small tables with cushions in the main hall of the main courtyard. The wine utensils and plates on the tables were all made of high-quality jade. Under the sunlight, they emitted a warm glow. In front of the main hall, a few sturdy servants standing with their hands behind their backs appeared. If a guest was really ignorant and took a few steps forward, someone would try to stop him.

When Fan Yue saw Yuan Yi, Yuan Yi and Yuan Mo were having a pleasant conversation. Although he was in the crowd, Fan Yue could still see Yuan Yi at a glance. At this moment, he was smiling gently and walking briskly.

Fan Yue had been doing well, surrounded by her sister and several ladies she knew well, enjoying delicious food and drinks. However, the wealthy ladies wanted to come up and cause trouble, but it was inconvenient for them to do so, so they always looked at her with disdain, and then gathered together to whisper.

Gu Fanyue had seen this kind of whispering and looking at you from time to time to annoy you when she was still Wang Yueran. In the orphanage, they always isolated and humiliated someone like this. This was more painful than beating you up. They would first glance at you, from top to bottom, and then their eyes would be full of contempt. Then they would giggle and pretend to discuss.

At first, you will wonder if there is something wrong with you? Is it because you are wearing the wrong clothes or there is something on your face? This kind of doubt will make you confused, sad, and inferior. At first, Wang Yueran thought of fighting back, and she would look back. Then there would be disdain in her eyes, a slight frown, and finally a contemptuous smile. Occasionally, it would make the other person angry.

But later on, Wang Yueran felt that this little trick of looking back was too boring, so she stopped paying attention to him. Gradually, no matter whether they looked at him or said something, whether it was really about her or they were pretending, Wang Yueran didn't care at all.

She had a hard and difficult life in this world, and she didn't want to be unable to sleep all day because of a look from someone she couldn't name. So she ignored them, and the whispers of those noble ladies didn't affect Gu Fanyue's mood for enjoying the food at all.

It was Bai Lingyu. She was wearing something more plain today. She changed her makeup from heavy to light, which made her look much more pleasing to the eye. To put it in modern terms, she was probably a beauty with a light complexion.

She did not come over to cause any trouble, but looked over here quietly. When Gu Fanyue's eyes met hers, she turned her head away or pretended to talk to someone else. Gu Fanyue did not want to pay attention to her. The scenery of the Seventh Prince's Mansion was very beautiful, and the tea was well prepared. Especially the furnishings were really well arranged, which made her truly feel what it meant to be extravagant and dissipated.

It was the little girl Cuitao who said that she saw someone coming this way. It was Bai Lingyu who stood up to stop them. Later, Gu Fanyue secretly went to the side to enjoy the cool air. Bai Lingyu appeared out of nowhere.

Gu Fanyue thought to himself, "Alas, I can't escape this disaster." When he was preparing to fight, he saw Bai Lingyu with a puzzled look on his face, and even looked at him solemnly.

Asked. "Are you really willing to marry the prince? Your sister didn't force you." Gu Fanyue sighed slightly. Alas, this rumor is everywhere in the capital. Gu Fanyue ignored it. Everyone said that it was the Third Prince's Mansion who wanted to please the emperor and wanted to make a big move, so he threw his sister to a sickly man.

But the solemnity and doubt in Bai Lingyu's eyes did not disgust Fan Yue. "Why? Are you so happy to see me laugh at you?" Fan Yue's tone was a little playful.

"I'm not forced to do this. I'm willing to marry Yuan Yi." Fanyue teased Bai Lingyu in a good mood. In fact, Bai Lingyu really sympathized with Gu Fanyue. For some reason, when Gu Fanyue came to the rescue in public that day, Bai Lingyu's resentment towards her disappeared like the wind, and she could even understand why the prince liked a girl like her.

If the prince liked Gu Fanyue's cuteness and her bright eyes and white teeth, Bai Lingyu would be jealous and angry. Why wasn't she that petite and cute? But now if the prince liked her personality, Bai Lingyu would have nothing to say. She really couldn't do it. If she found out that someone else had skipped her dance right before she went on stage, she would probably beat her chest and cry in grievance. She would never remain calm. If a girl she hated made a fool of herself in public, she would never lend a helping hand and would even watch the joke from the side.

Later, she discovered the difference between herself and Gu Fanyue. She was not calm, mature, or even kind. She could be said to have a vicious mind, and perhaps that was why she was not liked.

Later, I heard that Gu Fanyue was married to the prince. Although I felt a little lucky, I didn't feel happy about other people's misfortune.

It seems that when I just have a vague goal, there is no good ending for the girl I want to be.

But just now she clearly saw Gu Fanyue and her sister still on a blind date, talking and laughing, and there was no resentment in her eyes. The moment she appeared, Bai Lingyu could feel the strong love entangled between her and Yuan Yi.

It's not a forced marriage as others say.

"Are you worried about me?"?

"I didn't! But the Seventh Prince is so good, why did you choose the Crown Prince?"

"But my Yuan Yi is also very good, he is the best! Why shouldn't I choose him?"

For some reason, perhaps because everyone in this world spoke softly to Fan Yue, Wang Yueran felt a little relieved when Bai Lingyu questioned her directly.

This kind of comfortable feeling was occasionally found in Yu Liao, which reminded Wang Yueran of the time when she had an argument with Fan Xiaorou.

"But, obviously marrying the Seventh Prince would be the best outcome," Bai Lingyu murmured with her head down.

Fan Yue looked up, then reached out and patted Bai Lingyu on the shoulder.

"Do you like the Seventh Prince because of him as a person, or because of the future he can give you? Anyway, for my future, I think the best future is to be with Yuan Yi."

Bai Lingyu was obviously confused by the question, she didn't know. She only knew that her father had been the backbone of their family since she was a child, the god of their family. Fortunately, she was deeply loved by her father. Later, she watched her father nod and bow to the young and handsome man in front of him with great respect, and Bai Lingyu also learned to do the same.

She knew that if she pleased the Seventh Prince, her father would be happy. Gradually, this admiration became vague. When she began to feel the first stirrings of love, she heard from others that this feeling was called admiration.

She felt that she loved Yuan Ye, and she also knew that if this love was reciprocated, it would be the best feedback to her father.

As women, they could not help their father in the court like their brothers, and could not become powerful minions. It seemed that the only skill they had was to marry the right person, so Bai Lingyu did not want to disappoint her father who loved her.

So is this love? But when the Seventh Prince walked towards her and called her Lingyu, her heartbeat did speed up, so maybe this was also love.
