rich concubine

Chapter 523 I Know Your Heart

The [-]-day banquet has been a top priority in Prince Anning's palace for many years. Jiang Shunxiao's previous wedding was a marriage between two powerful people, so it was difficult to make it too grand to avoid arousing suspicion. Something like that happened again in the year, and even the best happy event turned into a funeral. Therefore, both the prince and the eldest princess wanted to organize this hundred-day banquet.

Prince An Ning's palace has only a small population, but now he has gained two treasures at one fell swoop. No matter what happens, it will be a first-class happy event.

Therefore, with the prince's approval, Wang has almost never stopped in the past few days.

She was from a good family, and her mother's family still had some wealth. She was just a small family, and she only used the knowledge she taught her to read and manage banquets. Especially for such a banquet, it was really not easy to get started and become a concubine. At that time, I just thought about how to control my husband all day long, and I had no idea about managing the family. After all, I was a person who couldn't support big things.

Often the things that have been arranged are found to be redundant only after the servants have done them in an orderly manner. These days, the servants are also provoked to follow suit, and the tasks are in vain.

Privately, some people said that she was born in a small family and only knew how to be a concubine, and could not even host a hundred-day banquet.

When such words reached Wang's ears, she was naturally very angry. She tightened her handkerchief, her fingers were all red, and she secretly gritted her teeth and vowed to make this banquet beautiful.

Even the two daughters cannot see their mother as often as before.

Finally, she showed the prince the preliminary arrangements for the whole day's banquet, but was criticized for being too tacky. She was so upset that she couldn't eat for several days, thinking only about how to create a banquet that the prince liked that was not tacky.

At this time, Rong Yi also received news.

Things that Rong Yi originally thought were hopeless turned around at this time, which really surprised her. But when she thought about some of the jokes that had happened during the Wang family's management these days, she probably understood why the prince suddenly changed his mind.

It's just that at this time, it's really a bit late.

Rong Yi tossed and turned on the bed at night, disturbing Jiang Shunxiao and unable to sleep, so he turned over and pressed her down, locking her tightly in his arms and saying, "Are you still up in the middle of the night?"

The candlelight in the room was dim, and Rong Yi used this light to look at his face. Remembering that when he told him that the prince was indifferent to his request for the eldest princess to host the [-]-day banquet, his reaction was not surprising. Instead, he said: "Of course he I won’t agree, so don’t think about it anymore now.”

In the next three or four days, Rong Yi was really embarrassed to mention it again. She just felt that maybe she had done something wrong. If she had said it properly at that time, maybe the prince would agree?I just didn't expect that even when I brought A Yi out, I couldn't move his iron-clad heart.

But after three or four days, when everyone saw it clearly, if the Wang family took care of this matter, I am afraid that nothing could be done, and instead the people outside would laugh at it, I would think of the eldest princess. ...How could the eldest princess not know?
And what the prince sent a message was that if she wanted the eldest princess to take care of it, then let her go to the eldest princess to talk to her.

Rong Yi wanted to curse in her heart. She disagreed at the best of times. If she was asked to go now, wouldn't it mean that she was going to touch the edge of the knife?

but……

Thinking about it, Rong Yi felt that she didn't think much about it when she first received the message from the prince. If she thought about it more deeply, this might not be a bad thing.

Thinking of this, Rong Yi said to Jiang Shunxiao: "I have figured it out now. In fact, the prince was too embarrassed to tell the eldest princess, so he thought of asking me to go to the eldest princess." Jiang Shunxiao said this when he came back. When I heard about it, I just said, "You are not allowed to go."

Hearing what Rong Yi said, he opened his eyes, frowned, and said, "Are you still thinking about this? Do you still want to go find her?"

Rong Yi bit her lip, coughed slightly, and said, "Don't be anxious, just listen to what I have to say..."

Jiang Shunxiao took a deep breath, all his drowsiness disappeared, and he just looked at her to see what else she could say.

Rong Yi looked a little uncomfortable due to his penetrating gaze. She made eye contact and said: "Sir, I think what I said that day had an effect. It's just that the prince also wanted to save face, so he had trouble with the eldest princess. Contradictory, if he had asked the eldest princess to host the [-]-day banquet at that time, the prince might not be able to lose face. Now, although it seems that Aunt Wang cannot afford the [-]-day banquet, in fact, she is using this ready-made excuse. Come and ask the eldest princess to take action. In this way, the prince will be able to look good, and the eldest princess will feel better, and maybe she will feel that she still has some weight in the prince's heart."

People are good-looking and vain, and it often depends on whether the flattery is on point.

After listening to Rong Yi's words, Jiang Shunxiao laughed. It couldn't be called warm, but rather cold. He said, "You mean, if you go to see the eldest princess now, she will feel happy?"

Rong Yi was silent for a moment, not daring to speak.

Because she still felt in her heart that if this happened to her, if she were in the position of the eldest princess, she would not be happy even thinking about it.

Seeing her silence, Jiang Shunxiao sighed slightly and said, "Don't interfere in this matter. I know what you want to do, but it's not necessary now, and I won't allow you to see her. This matter is his business. It has nothing to do with you, just don’t worry about it anymore.”

Rong Yi knew that it would not be a good thing for her to have this happen to her, and she also knew that she might be used as a gunman this time, so her voice weakened and she said pitifully: "But... the prince asked me to invite the eldest princess. "

Jiang Shunxiao closed his eyes, snorted, and said: "I asked you to invite me? What kind of status do you have to invite the princess? Silly girl, you don't even know that you are being sold. Listen to me and don't worry about it anymore. Yes, I will take care of it."

Hearing this, Rong Yi's heart warmed up. She looked up at him, but he held her head down and heard his deep voice saying, "Go to sleep. I have something to do tomorrow."

Rong Yi let out a big breath and lay on his chest. Her voice was soft and waxy, with a hint of coquettishness. She said, "Do you think I'm useless? This matter is obvious." I provoked it, but I didn't handle it properly, and instead asked you to handle it."

Hearing this, Jiang Shunxiao's complexion gradually improved. He lowered his head and kissed Rong Yi's forehead, saying: "No, I know your thoughts, but you don't know that the person you see is not the one in your eyes." Man, I’ve taught you a lesson this time, remember it from now on.”

Rong Yi nodded gently. Although this matter did not have the expected effect and did collapse, it also taught her a lesson. She should know that many things are not taken for granted. She thought she could do it well, but in the end She would definitely go with the result she had in mind. She was a little regretful, but it made her even more motivated.
