Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace

Shen Wei and Sun Qingmei were chatting in the courtyard. On the other side, in the pavilion in the center of Luoyue Lake, Zhaoyang was also preparing to chat with Yan Yunting.

The breeze gently blew across the rippling lake, ruffling the strands of hair on Zhaoyang's forehead. As the sun shone down, her eyes were filled with a happy smile as she looked at Yan Yunting happily.

"That man has the air of a gangster. He is definitely not a good man. Princess should be careful." Yan Yunting frowned and reminded.

The young man in brocade robe gave Yan Yunting a great sense of crisis.

Doctor Mo was handsome, dressed in white, holding a paper fan, and looked like a playboy walking among flowers. Yan Yunting couldn't help but worry that if Zhaoyang was deceived by Doctor Mo's words, the consequences would be disastrous.

Zhaoyang sat on a stone bench and said with a smile, "He is a quack doctor."

Yan Yunting snorted coldly, his tone unable to hide the sourness: "Just an ordinary person."

How could a princess worth a lot of money fall in love with a commoner? If it gets out, she will be laughed at.

Seeing Yan Yunting jealous, Zhaoyang knew that Yan Yunting must have her in his heart.

Zhaoyang was delighted and said with a smile, "He is not an ordinary doctor. His medical skills are extremely advanced. Yan Yunting, who are you to me? Why do you control me? I want to go back and have a chat with the doctor. Please don't disturb me."

After saying this, Zhaoyang deliberately turned around and left.

Just after she took two steps, her arm was tightly grasped by Yan Yunting. Yan Yunting frowned and said, "Princess, I have something to tell you."

In order to get promoted faster, he needed to go to the border for some time. It could be as short as half a year or as long as three to five years. As he was about to leave, Yan Yunting couldn't bear to leave Zhaoyang behind, and he didn't want to see Zhaoyang flirting with other men while he was away.

Zhaoyang turned his head, his eyes curved into crescents: "What's the matter?"

Yan Yunting said: "I——"

As soon as he opened his mouth, a servant from the Yan family came running over. The servant glanced at Princess Zhaoyang, and then whispered in Yan Yunting's ear: "Sir, it's bad, Miss Tantai suddenly fainted."

Yan Yunting was shocked. Rouer fainted?

He took a step forward and was about to go back to visit.

But after walking two or three steps, he turned back to look at Princess Zhaoyang in the pavilion in the middle of the lake. The sun was clear, the lake was flowing, and Zhaoyang, dressed in bright red, was standing there, looking at him lovingly.

Yan Yunting was very excited.

Zhaoyang had been chasing him for many years, and Yan Yunting's heart was as strong as iron, but it was softened quietly over the years. However, he was only a minister, far from being worthy of the precious Zhaoyang.

This time he volunteered to go to the frontier for training in order to get promoted as soon as possible. When he was made a marquis and a prime minister, he would have the capital to marry Zhaoyang and would not be ridiculed by the outside world.

He has Zhaoyang and Tan Tairou in his heart, and he can't let go of either woman.

Yan Yunting smiled gently. He held Zhaoyang's hand, with rare sincerity in his eyes. "There is an emergency at home. I will go back to deal with it. I will wait for you at Hudong Pavilion at 10:00 tonight."

Zhaoyang's heart was pounding.

This was the first time Yan Yunting took the initiative to hold her hand!

She said happily: "Don't be late, otherwise I will be very angry."

Yan Yunting bowed to Zhaoyang and said gently, "I will arrive on time, rain or shine."

Yan Yunting thought that Tan Tairou had just fainted, and he would go back to take a look at the situation and would probably be back soon. He would definitely not delay the meeting with Zhao Yang tonight.

Zhaoyang was in a very good mood as she watched Yan Yunting's tall back leaving. She happily returned to the villa, holding up her skirt.

...

"The princess is back."

In the villa, Shen Wei, who was chatting with Sun Qingmei, heard the voice of a palace maid coming from outside.

Shen Wei looked back and saw Princess Zhaoyang returning to the villa with a happy face.

Lunch is ready and exquisite Jiangnan dishes are placed on the table.

Zhaoyang was in a good mood and had a good appetite, so he ate a lot at lunch.

At the lunch table, Shen Wei observed Zhaoyang's expression and was surprised to see Zhaoyang's happy face. She didn't know what Yan Yunting said to Zhaoyang that made her so happy.

Doctor Mo was still straightforward: "Your Highness, please allow me to remind you that men's words cannot be trusted."

Zhaoyang paused while eating the snack.

Doctor Mo seemed to recall the past. His painful experience was still fresh in his mind. He couldn't bear to see Zhaoyang go astray. Doctor Mo said earnestly: "Men's mouths are deceitful. I have suffered a lot from them!"

This remark was so bizarre that Zhao Yang almost choked, Sun Qingmei's eyes widened, and Shen Wei also looked at Dr. Mo with an unbelievable look.

Doctor Mo took a sip of the mellow wine and said sadly, "Don't look at me. I am a man, and men understand men best."

Zhaoyang chuckled, thinking that Doctor Mo was joking and didn't take his words to heart.

After lunch, Shen Wei and Sun Qingmei took a walk along the lakeside to digest their food.

The weather was slightly hot, and the cool breeze from Luoyue Lake blew on my face, bringing a cool breeze, which was very comfortable. Shen Wei secretly decided that when she had money in the future, she would also build a villa by Luoyue Lake and come here to escape the heat and enjoy the flowers in summer.

A carriage from the Marquisate came galloping and stopped by the lake. The curtain was opened, and a girl in a pink skirt got off the carriage angrily: "Sister-in-law! I'm almost dying of anxiety at home, and you still have the leisure to walk by the lake!"

The girl had a pretty face and looked unhappy.

She glanced at Shen Wei and seemed to recognize her identity. At Princess Zhaoyang's birthday banquet, Shen Wei received a reward from the Empress, which left an impression on many officials and their wives.

The girl snorted, "You have become close friends with the concubines in the palace. If the news gets out, you are not afraid that it will tarnish the reputation of our Zhennan Marquis Mansion."

It is simply shameful for the mistress of a marquis's family to chat with a lowly concubine.

Sun Qingmei hurriedly said, "Qianqian, don't talk nonsense."

This woman is Shangguan Qian, the younger sister of Shangguan Xuan, the Marquis of Zhennan. Shangguan Qian curled her lips and said, "Sister-in-law, where is the Roselle lip balm I want? I will be embarrassed if I don't have the best lip balm when I attend the Lotus Banquet at the Xiangfu tomorrow."

Sun Qingmei said gently, "Lotus lip balm is expensive and has been sold out in Yanjing. Why not use other lip balms instead?"

Shangguan Qian's pretty face fell. Other girls could use Roselle lip balm, so why couldn't she?

She glared at Sun Qingmei angrily: "Before my brother went to the border, he trusted you and handed over everything in the mansion to you, but you were so perfunctory! Sister-in-law, you are really too much. When my brother comes back, I will definitely complain to him!"

Shangguan Qian turned around and walked away angrily. Unexpectedly, she walked too fast and stepped on her skirt, her body tilted, and she fell into the cold lake water.

The water splashed away.

Sun Qingmei was well versed in water and immediately jumped into the water to save people. The water by the lake was not deep, so Shangguan Qian was not drowned. She was so scared that she kept screaming. Sun Qingmei tried to hold her back several times, but was almost pushed away by Shangguan Qian.

It took a long time for Sun Qingmei to pull Shangguan Qian out.

Shangguan Qian was soaked to the skin. She burst into tears out of fear. After getting ashore, she was so angry that she kept complaining, "It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have fallen into the lake!"
