I'm reborn, only a fool would spoil you

In a blink of an eye, it is Emperor Jingde’s Halloween.

In the previous life, Tao Ying had been made sick by Madam Fu and Liu Qing'er. Fu Yuzheng and her sister Fu Yusu stayed by their mother's bedside to take care of her, and the whole family was unable to enter the palace to celebrate her birthday.

In this life, Tao Ying was in a good mood and in good health. Fu Yuzheng knew very well that their Jingyang Marquis Mansion would definitely receive an invitation from the palace.

Sure enough, that afternoon, Fu Yuzheng sat in front of the window embroidering with her mother and sister.

A concierge came in with a delicate red invitation and announced the good news with a happy face: "Madam, Second Miss, Third Miss, this is an invitation from the palace."

The palace was a precious place that not just anyone was qualified to enter. Even the officials who received the invitations to Halloween were different every year, after all, the emperor's favor rose and fell.

Therefore, if a family could receive an invitation from a eunuch, they would have to pay a large reward.

Tao Ying was generous and gave him a gold ingot directly.

When Tao Ying was looking through the invitation, Fu Yuzheng and Fu Yusu came over and saw at a glance the gold-plated font on the invitation, which had the names of their family written on it.

"Mom, can we really go to the palace?" A hint of excitement flashed in Fu Yushu's eyes.

Tao Ying smiled and nodded: "This time, your parents will take you two sisters to the palace to see the grandeur of the royal family."

Logically speaking, the Marquis of Jingyang's mansion was of high status, and the daughters should have entered the palace long ago. However, the three of them had been with the army in the northwest, and only returned to Beijing in the past two years.

After returning to Beijing, unfortunately, he missed the opportunity to enter the palace every time due to various reasons.

In her previous life, Fu Yuzheng married into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion. As a royal relative, she had entered the palace many times, so she was no longer new to the palace.

She was even more worried about the person she was bound to meet when she entered the palace this time...Princess Yuehua.

The banquet area in the imperial palace is so small that you can see people everywhere if you look up.

While she was daydreaming, Tao Ying uttered a sound of surprise and looked at the invitation in her hand with a puzzled look. Fu Yuzheng leaned forward to take a closer look...

It turned out that there were two more names on the invitation, namely Fu Jingxuan and Fu Yuxuan from the second house.

Tao Ying analyzed: "Fu Jingxuan is engaged to Chen Daiyu, the daughter of the Prime Minister. It is reasonable that Prime Minister Chen Ge Lao intends to let him enter the palace to make connections and secure a place for him."

But the fourth girl, Fu Yuxuan, was also invited, which is incredible.

Fu Yuzheng suddenly smiled as she remembered something: "It must be the Prime Minister's eldest son Chen Peiting who is behind this. It's funny that the eldest son has taken a fancy to Fu Yuxuan."

Tao Ying and Fu Yushu looked surprised.

"Mom, do you think this relationship between Fu Yuxuan and Chen Peiting will work out?" Fu Yusu asked softly.

Tao Ying was not optimistic and said calmly, "She is of a low birth. Mrs. Chen, the Prime Minister, has very high standards and is very picky. Chen Peiting is the eldest son, so it is impossible for her to accept Fu Yuxuan as her consort."

Fu Yuzheng was not optimistic either.

She knew that in his previous life, Chen Peiting married a princess of noble status, and there was absolutely no possibility between him and Fu Yuxuan.

Halloween is coming soon.

Shen Yuehua obediently helped Mrs. Fu into the carriage.

Afterwards, she stood by the roadside and waved her handkerchief to Mrs. Fu in the carriage, reluctantly saying goodbye: "Grandma, Yuehua is waiting for you at the mansion."

"Well, Yuehua is such a good child." Old Madam Fu said with a smile towards the car window.

"Yuehua" is said on the left and "Yuehua" is said on the right. Who is this name for?

Fu Yuzheng glanced at Shen Yuehua with cold eyes. Shen Yuehua shuddered with fear and quickly changed her name to "Hua'er".

Relying on her seniority, Old Madam Fu glanced at Tao Ying who was walking past the carriage and shouted "Yuehua" a few more times.

Fu Yuzheng directly stabbed her with words: "Grandma, no matter how much you shout, Cousin Shen is just the daughter of a poor official. A sparrow is just a sparrow. She can't turn into a phoenix. There is no way she can enter the palace to win face for you."

This is a naked irony to Madam Fu... Because of her humble family background, Shen Yuehua is not qualified to enter the palace.

Madam Fu was so angry that she almost fell backwards. She said in a trembling voice: "You——"

Fu Yuzheng would not indulge the old woman, and added: "Only the grandmother would be willing to treasure such a niece from her mother's side. If it were someone else, they would not dare to let the poor relatives come to ask for money, so as not to embarrass themselves."

After saying that, he chased after Tao Ying, waving his handkerchief.

Madam Fu was so angry that her eyes almost exploded!

After Fu Yuzheng caught up with Tao Ying, she carefully observed her mother's expression. She seemed... very calm.

At this moment, Daddy Fu Xiaotian came over, held Tao Ying's waist, and sent her to the carriage affectionately. He also kissed his wife's cheek.

Tao Ying blushed slightly, punched Fu Xiaotian on the shoulder, and said angrily, "You're making trouble again."

"You are my only woman. If I don't bother you, who else can I bother?" Fu Xiaotian shamelessly stole another kiss.

Fu Yuzheng and Fu Yushu turned their heads away and pretended not to know.

Finally sitting in the carriage, Fu Yuzheng carefully observed Tao Ying's eyebrows and found that her mother's eyes were full of joy. It seemed that she didn't care about the word "Yuehua" mentioned by Madam Fu and Shen Yuehua at all.

That's good.

She didn’t know if it was an illusion, but Fu Yuzheng felt that her mother in this life was much more confident than in the previous life, and she was very confident.

Tao Ying's confidence was indeed increased. She had been married for more than ten years, but it was the first time she knew that her husband appreciated her family so much that he always spoke of his admiration for her father that night at the dinner party at Ciren Hall.

This gave Tao Ying great confidence.

When people have confidence, their mood will naturally be different.

The carriage drove into the first palace gate and stopped in front of the second palace gate. According to the palace rules of the Great Zhou Dynasty, people had to get off the carriage here.

Just as Fu Yuzheng and her family got off the carriage, another carriage drove up from behind.

Fu Yuzheng looked back and saw that it was a narrow road for enemies to meet. It turned out to be the carriage of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, and the young master Gao Yan was riding a tall horse beside the carriage.

The two families were in-laws, so Old Madam Fu chose to wait in front of the palace gate until the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion got off the carriage and walked forward together.

Seeing the Queen's mother, Madam Gao, getting off the carriage, Madam Fu hurried over and greeted her warmly, "Hello, elder sister."

After a few simple greetings, Madam Fu glanced at the people from the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion who had entered the palace this time. She looked around but did not see her long-cherished granddaughter Fu Yuyao.

She couldn't help but ask, "Where's Yao'er? Didn't she come with you?" She had finally married into the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion, so it was time for her to go to the palace and see the world.

Fu Yuzheng listened from the side and sneered in her heart.

This grandmother was really senile and had totally forgotten that her own granddaughter, Fu Yuyao, was married to the palace to be... a third-rate concubine, not even a proper mistress. How could she be qualified to enter the palace?

He rashly spoke nonsense to Madam Gao, not afraid of being laughed at by her.

Sure enough, although Madam Gao still maintained a respectable smile on her face, her tone was indifferent: "We in the Zhenguo Mansion are very strict about rules. Even if you are a concubine, you cannot enter the palace."

What's more, she is just a "humble concubine".

Madam Fu looked embarrassed and wanted to say something, but Madam Gao's eyes had already passed her and she went straight to greet Tao Ying: "Mother-in-law, it's been a while since we last met. How are you?"

The expression and tone between his eyebrows were full of enthusiasm.

The contrast between before and after made Madam Fu even more nervous and embarrassed.

Seeing this, Fu Yuzheng covered her mouth and laughed secretly.

Tao Ying naturally knew that she was benefiting from her husband and youngest daughter, but these two were the people closest to her, which only made her feel proud.

When the two families formed a team and walked forward, Fu Yuzheng inadvertently saw Gao Yan, who was quietly staying at the end, and the maid next to him looked very familiar.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be... Fu Yuyao in disguise!

Tsk tsk tsk, this Gao Yan is truly a lovesick man!

Fu Yuzheng could almost imagine the scene, how Fu Yuyao cried and begged Gao Yan when she learned that she could not enter the palace.

But Gao Yan was so foolish as to agree to it, openly defying the palace rules!

Fu Yuzheng glanced at the guards guarding the gate. If she reported it at this moment, Fu Yuyao would be dragged out of the palace immediately.

But Fu Yuzheng suppressed this thought, it would be better to wait until Fu Yuyao entered the inner courtyard of the imperial palace and caused trouble, and then expose it in one fell swoop...

Just by going through it in her mind, Fu Yuzheng found it wonderful.

About a quarter of an hour later, the group arrived at the Imperial Garden.

Fu Yuzheng suddenly felt a cold gaze coming straight at her. She glanced over sharply and caught a glimpse of a figure in a red palace dress flashing by behind the flowers and trees.

Could it be Princess Yuehua?
