imperial concubine

Chapter 5
When Zhuru came in, what she saw was the young lady resting her chin on her hand, looking out of the window thinking.Seeing her coming in, she tilted her head and said, "Zhuru, just now my mother told me not to attend the Nobile Banquet."

Zhu Ru was stunned for a moment, then her eyes turned red, "Miss, Da Furen is trying to prevent you from getting married." The Nobile Banquet is a very important banquet for Da Chen.

With Zhuru's way of thinking, she naturally couldn't think of the interests of the imperial power, but she knew that a young lady who had never been brought into the social circle of high society would not be recognized by the family, and no family's children would ask her to marry her.Wealthy families, the daughter-in-law you marry must have an atmosphere that can control the family. How can a young lady who is raised in a deep boudoir with no knowledge and reputation have such skills?

Su Wan smiled softly, "So, in order for me to get married, you should hurry up and inquire about the preferences of the elders in the family, and find out more things. If mother doesn't agree, let's ask father to agree."

Hearing this, Zhuru jumped up, "I'll go right away."

Wrapping her fingers around the black silk, circle after circle, Su Wan looked at the cold wind outside, but smiled slightly.Su Wan can no longer be a neglected eldest lady. Only when she can gain a firm foothold in the mighty Marquis Mansion can she be able to understand what happened to Da Chen in the past three years.

Zhuru has a wild temper, but she is very good at socializing, not to mention staying in the mansion for so many years, within half a day, she came back after inquiring a lot of news.

As soon as he came back, he told everything about the situation in the mansion, from the old lady to the person in charge with some power.

Su Wan listened carefully to what she said, put down the scroll in her hand, and suddenly asked: "Before my mother passed away, the eldest lady was just a noble concubine. How could the old lady agree with my father to help her to be his wife?"

The distinction between wives and concubines is like a world of difference.Even a noble concubine is nothing more than a concubine.The Su family is a big family in the imperial capital, how could they allow a noble concubine to become the mistress and take charge of the whole family.

"Miss, although the eldest lady is only a noble concubine, she has the favor of Princess Jingya and Mrs. Fang. After the new emperor ascended the throne, the eldest lady was summoned by the empress to see her. Besides, Houye also liked the eldest lady very much at that time. The old lady did not How did you stop it?" Zhuru sighed.

Su Wan secretly thought that Princess Jingya should be Yun Jingya, the daughter of King Ruyang, but... "Mrs. Fang?"

"It's Prime Minister Fang's wife, not only His Majesty's adoptive daughter, but also the noble daughter of the Qi family." Zhuru explained.

Prime Minister?Su Wan sneered in her heart, she was actually a first-rank official.And Qi Ruobing, who was originally from a poor family, has become the daughter of the Qi family in the imperial capital, and has the ability to help a noble concubine to the position of wife. It seems that these two people have lived a good life these years.

Su Wan narrowed her eyes and smiled, "Yes, it is indeed a noble status. Otherwise, how can I support the eldest lady to take the position?"

"Miss, what should we do?" Zhuru said with a bitter face, how can I participate in the Nobile Banquet. "Why don't we go and beg Lord Hou, if Lord Hou agrees, Da Furen can't object."

"No." Su Wan calmed down, but changed her mind, picked up the scroll on the table again, and said calmly, "Why bother father about the back house."

Zhu Ru didn't understand, and said confusedly: "But the old madam has been paying respects to the Buddha and doesn't care about the affairs, the affairs of the back house are all taken care of by the elder madam." Didn't the elder madam refuse to let the young lady go?
Su Wan smiled lightly, and the smile flashed past, with a sharpness that Zhuru had never seen before.

"Then let's find a reason and let her take care of it!"
