Dressed as a concubine instead of a concubine

"violin?"

Xie Junyi frowned, having never heard of such a piano.

"What does it look like? I'll find it for you."

"How about I draw it for you, and you can find a craftsman to make one."

Meng Xiyue was very excited. The violin was her favorite instrument, but she had never touched it since she came to ancient times.

She still felt sad when she thought that she would not be able to poop in the future.

"Okay, then you draw it."

Meng Xiyue came to the desk, picked up a pen and started drawing.

Xie Junyi's expression gradually changed from doting to shock, "Your handwriting is not good, but your painting skills are extraordinary."

Meng Xiyue's heart tightened. She was only thinking about the violin and forgot to hide her painting skills.

She smiled awkwardly.

“The more you draw, the better you become.”

"What kind of violin is this? I have never seen it before. Who did you learn it from?"

Xie Junyi discovered that there were more and more strange things about her.

"When I was a child, I met a master who was dressed in rags. I was kind enough to give him food, and he taught me."

Meng Xiyue was making up stories. She could only make up stories about people who were untraceable, otherwise she would not be able to fool Xie Junyi.

"Did he teach you how to play the erhu?"

"Yes."

Hearing this, Xie Junyi's eyes darkened and he was no longer as interested in the violin.

This thing used for street performances is probably not much different from the erhu. Looking at its shape, it is also somewhat similar to the erhu.

"If you want to learn the zither, how about I find a teacher for you? Which one do you want to learn, the guqin or the pipa?"

"Make the violin first, and I'll play it for you."

Meng Xiyue didn't want to learn a new musical instrument as it was really tiring.

She worked too hard in her previous life. From childhood to adulthood, her mother wanted her to study 24 hours a day. She was almost always either taking interest classes or on the way to interest classes.

In this life, all she wants to do is to be bad and enjoy life.

Fortunately, Xie Junyi did not force her.

"Okay, actually, it doesn't matter whether you learn these arts or not. With this king protecting you, those ladies will naturally fawn over you, and you don't need to please them."

"It's just that you need to control your temper to avoid conflicts with them."

The young ladies in the capital all think highly of themselves. They won't say anything on the surface, but deep down they look down on people of Meng Xiyue's status.

He was afraid that she would be wronged.

Now he is unable to give her a legitimate identity, which is bound to make her feel wronged.

……

The next day, after the morning court session, a eunuch came to tell Xie Junyi that the Queen wanted to see him.

Yikun Palace

The queen looked suspicious as she looked at her son who made her so proud and asked, "I heard that a beautiful lady has come to your house?"

Xie Junyi raised his eyes and glanced at Yin Wumei who was standing beside him, with a hint of anger in his eyes.

Yin Wumei naturally felt it, she lowered her eyes and dared not look at Xie Junyi.

She had been back at Yin Mansion for five or six days, but Xie Junyi did not send anyone to pick her up. She had no other choice but to seek help from the Queen Mother.

"Yes, there is one."

"She is the concubine of a criminal from Qingyun City. If you like, you can take her as a maid or a concubine. Why hide her?"

The queen frowned slightly. Her son had been a sensible man since he was young and had always kept himself clean.

The eldest prince has a lot of concubines, but Xie Junyi has no other women except Yin Wumei, whom she sent.

He had never even touched Yin Wumei.

He said that he would wait until he married his principal wife before taking a concubine, this was to give his principal wife some respect.

Thinking of this, her heart ached slightly. It was because of what happened between her and the emperor that made him like this.

She did not object to his insistence on marrying a wife first and then taking a concubine. This way, they would have a greater advantage than the eldest prince when choosing a wife.

Even if he took a concubine, it wouldn't be a big deal. It was just that he didn't tell her about this, which made the queen feel a little upset.

"I have already said that we will take a concubine after the principal wife enters the mansion."

Xie Junyi still said the same thing.

The queen rubbed her forehead with a headache, "Then it's not a good idea to hide a woman in the mansion like this."

"She didn't hide. She lived openly in the mansion. She helped me in Qingyun City, and I promised to grant her a wish. She wanted to visit the capital, so I brought her here."

No one would believe such a lie as bringing a woman all the way to the capital just to take a look.

But Xie Junyi's attitude is that you can believe it or not.

The queen sighed. She didn't take the sudden appearance of Meng Xiyue seriously. After all, she was just a woman of her son.

As for the exaggerated things Yin Wumei said, she would not believe them because she was used to the jealousy among women.

"Since they are guests, treat them well and don't neglect them."

"My son, I obey."

"And Wumei has been managing your mansion since you built it. She is devoted to you. You should not hurt her feelings."

Hearing the queen's words, Yin Wumei knelt down immediately and said, "This is what I should do, and I do it willingly. I don't feel wronged."

"You are a sensible person. I am relieved to have you in Prince Qi's mansion."

Yin Wumei was the one she had carefully selected. She was very satisfied with him both in terms of his family background and his interpersonal skills.

"Yes, I will live up to your expectations."

Yin Wumei bit her lower lip, knowing that her behavior this time was a bit of a temper tantrum, and the Queen must be somewhat resentful.

In fact, she regretted it after returning to Yin Mansion, but Prince Qi refused to accept her. She couldn't just go back alone in disgrace, so she had to ask the Queen for help.

After leaving Yiku Palace, Yin Wumei quickly knelt down and apologized to King Qi.

Xie Junyi looked at her and said in a deep voice.

"I can give you one more chance. You can still choose to leave now and return to Yin Mansion. I will ask my mother to find a good marriage for you."

"No, I will stay in Prince Qi's mansion to take care of the prince and will not go anywhere."

Yin Wumei shook her head frantically, "I know I was wrong. I shouldn't have been jealous of Miss Meng and I shouldn't have been so irritable. I will never do that again. Your Majesty, please don't chase me away."

Looking at the beautiful woman with tears streaming down her face and eyes full of pleading, Xie Junyi was not moved at all, he said coldly.

"Then I will say the same thing. When my wife comes to you, I will take you as my concubine, but I will never give you love."

"I understand. As long as I can stay with the prince, I will be content."

Yin Wumei said this firmly. The prince had also said this to her when she first entered Prince Qi's mansion five years ago, and this was her answer.

It is even less likely to change now.

“I hope you won’t regret it in the future.”

After Xie Junyi finished speaking, he turned away. That was all he had to say. The choice was up to her.
