After exchanging marriage with my elder sister, I won with a bad hand.

The next day, Zhao went into the palace.

The eldest princess is the eldest princess. She can resist even the imperial decree, and the marriage between the two was really exchanged according to her wishes.

When the imperial edict came again, Shen Yihuan saw her elder sister's smug face and her expression of enjoying a good show, and she chose to ignore it.

As the saying goes, every family has its own problems. The eldest sister only saw the result, but didn't know the difficulties involved. And people like the tenth prince, if they don't have some ability, they won't get any respect at all.

What's more, that guy is a lunatic. Even if she was very capable in her previous life, she was still trembling with fear around him. If she made a mistake, she would be doomed.

To be honest, she was now somewhat grateful to her simple-minded elder sister for being able to stay away from that lunatic.

As for the dissolute and immoral Crown Prince, there is a reason for this. Although the early Crown Prince had mediocre talents, he still did things in a law-abiding manner. In this peaceful and prosperous era, as long as he did not do such things, he would definitely be able to keep his throne.

But this guy is a lovesick man. That day, the eldest sister entered the East Palace with a woman, and that woman was the prince's true love.

The most taboo thing in the royal family is infatuation, and they cannot treat everyone equally. What's more, the women in the harem are good at intrigue.

The eldest sister was a brainless person and was fooled by the cunning Crown Princess. The two of them teamed up to harm the woman.

Afterwards, the Crown Princess pushed her elder sister out and escaped unscathed. If her elder sister had not had her mother, the eldest princess, she would have been punished by the Crown Prince.

On the auspicious day, the betrothal gifts of the Crown Prince and the Tenth Prince arrived at the Prime Minister's Residence one after another. There was music and dancing along the way, and it was very lively.

The prince's betrothal gifts weighed a total of 188 pieces, forming a long queue, which was quite spectacular.

The people around couldn't help but chatter and discuss.

"Good fellow, you are worthy of being the prince. The betrothal gifts are so huge."

"This is just marrying a concubine. If she were a crown princess, wouldn't it be much more?"

"I heard that when the Crown Princess was married, the betrothal gifts were 288 loads."

"Oh my goodness."

When the betrothal gifts were carried into the prime minister's residence, the prime minister was all smiles, but Zhao's expression became a little stiff, as if she didn't know whether to smile or not.

As for the eldest lady in the mansion, Shen Yiluo, her face turned even darker when she heard the news in the room, and she kept sending the maid around her to go out and check.

Although the Tenth Prince's betrothal gift arrived later than the Crown Prince's in her previous life, she always wanted to be better than her legitimate sister in everything, so she had someone inform the Tenth Prince early and asked him to come early, but who would have thought that he still arrived late.

However, even though she was angry, she felt much less angry when she thought that the Tenth Prince would make a comeback in the future and she would be able to sit on the coveted throne of Queen.

Later, when she learned that the prince did not kiss her, she felt even more relieved.

"I heard that the prince proposed marriage to both the Prime Minister's Mansion and the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion today. Now that he is not here, it seems that he has gone to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery Mansion."

"I heard that the eldest daughter of the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion is the prince's true love."

“No wonder.”

When the prime minister standing at the door heard these discussions, the smile on his face gradually became a little stiff, but after all, he was an old fox from the officialdom, and he quickly controlled his emotions.

The usually deserted Lanxi Courtyard was now bustling with activity. From time to time, servants would carry in betrothal gifts and place them in the narrow courtyard.

In the room, Shen Yihuan was peeling an orange and eating it. It was quite funny to say that she was not favored in the past and everyone avoided her, but since she got engaged to the prince, there were many flatterers in the mansion.

The orange in her hand was sent by Aunt Xue, who had bullied her before.

The merchant's daughter is truly remarkable. She is so flexible and resilient. No wonder she still has a place in the mansion despite her age and age.

"Second Miss, I heard that the prince went to the Marquis of Loyalty and Bravery's Mansion and he didn't come to us." When Cuicui heard the news, she was worried about her own girl.

However, at this moment, Shen Yihuan seemed to be fine. He ate a piece of orange flesh at a time and squinted his eyes with sweetness.

After swallowing the pulp, he slowly said, “Miss Jiang is the prince’s favorite. For such a big event, he will naturally go there.”

"As for me, it's just a political marriage, and it's just a woman forced on me."

She said this lightly, as if it was not her own business.

Cuicui was anxious when she heard this and couldn't help complaining, "This, girl, I now feel that marrying the Crown Prince is not as good as marrying the Tenth Prince. At least the Tenth Prince doesn't have any women now, while the Crown Prince, including the Crown Princess and you, plus his true love, already has three women."

"Cui Cui, no matter what, as women, we just need to know how to love ourselves, and let everything else go with the flow."

Cuicui was stunned and blurted out: "Second Miss, don't you want to compete for favor?" In her rigid mind, in order to live a good life, she must win the love of the head of the family.

Competing for favor? Shen Yihuan was slightly stunned. To be honest, she had never thought about competing for favor.

Living a new life, she didn't want to live the same intrigue-filled life as in her previous life.

Now she just wants to lie down and be a salted fish.

Anyway, if the prince doesn't do anything, he won't fall. She can enjoy the shade under a big tree. Isn't it nice to live a quiet life?

As for men... their hearts are fickle. They may be deeply in love with you one moment, but treat you like a piece of trash the next.

Let’s just forget about this kind of feeling.

The prince's betrothal gifts gradually entered Shen Yihuan's yard, and soon the yard was packed with them.

When Cuicui saw the betrothal gifts, she felt a little better for her daughter.

Soon after, the tenth prince's betrothal gift was also sent over with a lot of banging.

This time, it was naturally the Tenth Prince who came in person, and Zhao's expression eased a lot.

The Crown Prince is really outrageous. He didn't even show up on such an important day. Could it be that their Prime Minister's Mansion plus her status as the eldest princess are not as good as the Mansion of the Loyal and Brave Marquis!

The tenth prince is also a handsome man with a humble attitude and knows when to act.

Zhao secretly observed him and nodded silently in her heart. She had never looked at him carefully before, but now it seems that this boy has really grown up and has a royal demeanor. Not bad, not bad.

If you think about it carefully, with Luo'er's personality, she might not be suitable for the treacherous environment of the harem. It is indeed a good choice to marry Zhao Heng, who is not favored but is still a prince.

As for Huan'er, seeing the prince's attitude and her silent character, I'm afraid she will have a hard time after entering the Eastern Palace.

Although she didn't like her daughter, marrying her to the prince this time was also a chess piece.

It seems that there are some things that she still needs to give some advice on.
