The masters in the mansion left in a hurry, and even the young masters followed them to the farm.

So they overlooked one problem: the palace had selected two princesses and they entered the palace today.

But no one takes this matter seriously.

If the lady was here, she would be able to take care of the morning and evening glow around her. The courtyard and everything else had already been tidied up, and she could just tell the kitchen to prepare a table of delicious food to entertain her.

But who knew that at this juncture the matter of leaving Zhuangzi would arise, and as a result the task of placing the new princess fell on Princess Liu and Princess Song.

They have long been aware of the situation in the backyard. No one can compete with Mrs. Chun. In addition, they are getting older and have stopped thinking about those things. They are a bit like the salted fish who want to have a bad time in the workplace. At this time, they hope that the new colleague will not be a troublemaker.

Otherwise, if he angered Concubine Chun, there would be another storm and trouble. If it affected him, his peaceful life would be over.

No one wants to see another Niuhulu.

So on the day of receiving the new princess, the women from the backyard were the most present.

Seeing the two young and fresh figures, everyone felt a little uncomfortable.

They are still beautiful but their love has faded. They are no longer successful, but these two new ones are also hopeless. It all depends on whether they can let it go in the future.

The two new princesses, one was Guo and the other was Gu. They spoke softly and sounded like Han women. They were beautiful, of course, but after having seen someone as charming as Concubine Chun, I always felt that they were a little bland.

At present, it seems that the rules are still quite decent, and they are also quite honest and dutiful. They dare not talk too much, nor dare to look around. Everyone is at ease and just stays in peace.

Geng Gege curled her lips and brought two more saw-mouth gourds.

Liu Gege is already quite old. When she smiles, there are many fine lines on her face. Compared with the two newcomers, they seem to be of two different generations.

She held the hands of the two princesses, and said in a particularly friendly and gentle manner: "It's a pity today that the masters have all gone to the farm, but before leaving, Fu Jin specifically instructed that a banquet should be prepared to welcome the two new sisters. You must not be restrained, these are all family members."

Guo and Gu originally lived in the same room during the selection. They had similar personalities and were close to each other because they lived together.

They both smiled shyly and responded softly: "Thank you, Sister Liu."

The kitchen is particularly quiet today. The masters are not here and the chefs have all been transferred away. The only thing left to do is to prepare meals for these princesses.

Mrs. Fujin was kind and even left two large baskets of crabs for the guests. They could just steam them in a steamer and serve them directly, garnished with a little chrysanthemum or something, which made the dish both elegant and interesting.

Crabs should be eaten with rice wine. As Geng Gege got drunk after drinking two cups of Qiulubai last time, Liu Gege also watched her and didn't let her drink too much this time. She also teased her: "Sister Geng is a greedy person. You looked so cute when you got drunk last time. This time I have to watch you to prevent you from accidentally falling into the ditch again when you return to the courtyard."

Wu Gege continued to stab her: "She is just like that. She can't keep two ounces of sesame oil in her stomach."

Geng Gege immediately glared back at her. Seeing that things were not going well, Liu Gege immediately pulled her back and said, "Look at what Sister Wu said. Today's protagonists are the new Sisters Guo and Gu. Don't let them laugh at you and think that we, as elder sisters, are disrespectful to the elderly."

After that, Princess Liu poured another half cup of wine for the two new princesses: "They are both straightforward and like to joke around. Don't learn from them. You should behave yourself and not cause trouble for the master. That's the best thing. The wife and the prince will love you more."

Guo Gege nodded in agreement, and Gu Gege didn't dare to say anything more.

The others were a little puzzled. Usually, when a newcomer entered the palace, he would always act arrogantly for a while, and would flatter the prince. They all thought they could soar to the sky and win the master's favor in one fell swoop. But why were these two different? They seemed like stupid quails.

After the banquet, the two returned to the Yunqi Courtyard that had been decorated for them.

Guo Gege was tired after a long day and wanted to relax, but she forced herself to chat with the two maids.

The maid who spoke first was called Hong Xing. She was smart and quickly got some hot water: "Princess, you must be tired. I brought some hot water a long time ago. It's just right for you to soak your feet."

Guo Gege smiled slightly and whispered: "Thank you, I feel much better after soaking my feet when I'm tired."

"Just enjoy it, Princess."

Seeing that the maid seemed quite clever, Guo Gege hesitated to speak, but still asked quietly: "Did the master and the others really go out?"

"Yes, they left in a hurry. Previously, the master and Concubine Chun went to the manor together, but this time Concubine Chun also went with them. The mansion became very busy and didn't have time to take care of the princess."

So that's what happened. Guo Gege breathed a sigh of relief. The heart that had been hanging since the moment she entered the mansion finally relaxed. She thought that it was the wife and the prince who were dissatisfied with her and Sister Gu, and they were deliberately trying to intimidate her.

Otherwise, how could there be a new person entering the mansion? The masters haven’t even shown their faces.

As long as she is not dissatisfied with herself, it is fine. Guo Gege thought that now she can live a stable life.

She had the same idea as Sister Gu. Neither of them had any family background, nor did their mother's family have any capable people. They were selected only because of their looks, but they were not too outstanding or beautiful, so they were really ordinary.

The only thing he can boast is his honest character.

Before leaving the palace, Concubine De specially sent someone to warn them. After entering the palace, don't play tricks, and be honest and dutiful. If she knew that there was any disturbance in the backyard of the Fourth Prince's Mansion, it would be a disaster.

Moreover, another concubine who lived in the same room was dragged out and beaten with ten boards because she violated the palace rules. She was breathing in but not out, and she could only vaguely hear that it was related to the Eastern Palace or something.

The two little girls were so scared that they hugged each other and trembled. They had never seen such a scene before.

Their lives can be lost at any time, and they think they are not the kind of people who would risk their lives to climb the ladder to success. As long as they can live a stable life, it is good enough.

Moreover, they had all heard about the situation in the Fourth Prince's Mansion. Concubine Chun had status, favor, children, and a family. He could crush them with just a flick of his little finger, and they had no intention of competing for favor or resisting.

Isn't it great for her to live a retired life at such a young age?

As long as Mrs. Fujin was fair and not stingy, and the two of them kept each other company, doing needlework or playing little songs, their lives would be very promising.
