Traveling through time and space to become a concubine: I just want to live a leisurely life

On the spacious street, several exquisite carriages moved slowly forward, and the wheels made crisp clattering sounds.

This is where the rich and powerful live, and every household has a large standing area.

The few residents on the entire street exude a sense of tranquility and solemnity.

After the carriage had traveled for a while, the scene gradually became lively.

All kinds of noisy voices came into my ears: "Dumplings! Big hot dumpling! Big and filling, I guarantee you'll be satisfied!"

"Shaobing! Fragrant shaobing!"

“Fresh soy milk!”

"Fried cakes..." The shouts came one after another, making it very lively.

From time to time, one could hear people bargaining and children playing happily on the roadside.

Because of the founding queen, the Great Xia Kingdom had very relaxed control over women. There were many women walking on the streets, and some even doing business.

Shen Jingyi was curious and couldn't help but gently lift a corner of the carriage curtain and look out.

There were all kinds of stalls on both sides of the street, and the dazzling array of goods was dazzling.

There are many people walking around, some are in a hurry, some are leisurely.

When they saw these magnificent carriages, they all consciously made way for them.

At the same time, many people stopped and watched curiously.

Someone noticed the beautiful face passing by in the carriage and couldn't help asking, "Whose carriages are these so early in the morning?"

An enthusiastic old man who was having breakfast nearby laughed heartily and said, "Young man, judging from your accent, you must be from another place."

"Yes, sir. I just came here yesterday."

"No wonder you don't recognize the sign of Prince Xuan's Palace."

"It turns out to be the carriage of Prince Xuan's palace. No wonder it is so magnificent!"

After that, he started chatting with the old man again, asking about some things in the capital.

Such conversations occurred in many places on this street. As the carriage went farther and farther away, the discussions rose and fell.

Shen Jingyi briefly enjoyed the hustle and bustle.

As the carriage went farther and farther away, the prosperous scene was gradually left behind.

"Mammy, let's go out for a walk sometime! I haven't been out for a long time." Shen Jingyi said coquettishly to the mammy.

The nanny smiled as she looked at her master, who was married but still had a childish mentality, and said, "Concubine, if you want to go out and play, it's no use being coquettish to an old slave. You have to be coquettish to the prince."

"Okay! Let's wait until we see him!" She had already made up her mind to get the prince's permission to let her go shopping.

Then Shen Jingyi lifted the car curtain and looked outside. The sunlight shone on her face, reflecting her beautiful outline.

She had a smile on her lips and her eyes revealed her longing for the outside world.

After the carriage arrived at Minister Shen's residence, Shen Jingyi got off the carriage gracefully.

Her face was as rosy as a peach, with a dignified yet elegant smile on her lips. She slowly walked towards the door with the careful support of Chuntao and Qiuju.

At this time, her stepmother, stepsister and a group of illegitimate sons and daughters were already waiting here.

Shen Xianxian looked at Shen Jingyi's carriage and pomp in front of her, gritted her teeth in hatred, and after being glared at by her mother, she had to lower her head reluctantly.

"Greetings to the Concubine." Everyone bowed in unison.

Looking at the people bowing their heads in greeting, I have to say that power is really a good thing.

"Get up, everyone! It's hard for you to wait here so early." Shen Jingyi said casually.

When Shen Xianxian heard this and saw Shen Jingyi's attitude, she became even more dissatisfied and gritted her teeth secretly.

However, she didn't dare to show it easily again, for fear of angering her mother.

At this time, Lin Xixia said gently: "Concubine, let's go in, your yard has always been reserved for you.

Your father has gone to court, he will be back in time for dinner, Chenxi has also gone to the Hanlin Academy, he said he will be back as soon as possible."

"Okay, I understand. Thank you for your hard work, ma'am. You don't have to accompany me." Shen Jingyi said politely.

"What Madam? How rude! You should call her mother." Shen Xianxian finally found the opportunity and shouted excitedly.

"Really? I think I'm being very polite by not calling her Lin Xiaoniang!" Shen Jingyi retorted calmly, with a hint of teasing in her eyes.

Lin Xixia's expression changed instantly. What she hated most was when someone mentioned that she was once a concubine.

But this damn girl would talk about this matter from time to time, and always go against her. She couldn't do anything with her before, and wanted to let her go with her damn mother, but unfortunately she was still alive and well after several attempts.

Now that she has become the concubine of Prince Xuan's Mansion, she has become even more arrogant.

"Shen Jingyi! You bitch..." Shen Xianxian shouted angrily.

"How dare you!" At the same time, Nanny Qin's stern rebuke rang out, like thunder, making people's eardrums hurt.

However, all this did not stop Shen Xianxian from continuing to speak.

Just as she was about to speak again, there was a crisp "click" sound, and it seemed as if time had fallen into dead silence.

Shen Xianxian widened her eyes and looked at her mother's hand in disbelief.

The burning pain on her face made tears well up in her eyes.

She could never have imagined that her mother would slap her. This was the first time she was spanked in her life.

All of this was Shen Jingyi's fault! If she wasn't her mother, how could she have become a despised concubine's daughter?

In fact, she didn't think about how to blame Shen Jingyi's mother! If she had to blame someone, she should blame her scumbag father!

Besides, if it weren’t for Shen Jingyi’s mother, who knows where her scumbag father would be hiding.

She wouldn't have the superior life she has now.

So people! Most of the time, they only like to see what they want to see and hear what they want to hear. They are unwilling to think, see or hear what is not good for them.

From childhood to adulthood, she has always lived in the shadow of Shen Jingyi, dull and lifeless.

She finally waited until her biological mother passed away and her mother was made the legitimate daughter. She finally got her happy ending and became the legitimate daughter. But Shen Jingyi became the concubine of King Xuan and stepped on her again!

Why can she always suppress herself so easily?

The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. The unwillingness and resentment in Shen Xianxian's eyes became more and more intense, almost turning into a physical form.

Coupled with the looks of those around her who were watching a show, she suddenly felt ashamed and could not stay there any longer.

So she ran towards her yard without looking back.

"Miss, please walk slower and wait for me!" Seeing that the situation was not good, Shen Xianxian's maid hurriedly followed.

Lin Xixia looked at her daughter who ran away with her hands covering her face, feeling distressed.

But she knew that this was not the time to comfort her daughter.

She clenched her teeth tightly, suppressed her inner anger, and apologized with a smile: "Please forgive me, Concubine. Xianxian didn't mean to offend you. You are her sister, so you shouldn't have the same opinion with her, right? I will strictly discipline her in the future."

Shen Jingyi smiled slightly and said in a tolerant tone, "Of course, we are all family after all, how can I care about these things?

However, Mrs. Lin, you still have to spend more time and effort to discipline Xianxian in the future.

Look at her spoiled personality. If she is not properly restrained, she will easily offend people when she goes out in the future.

By then, maybe one day it will bring disaster to the family."

After saying that, Shen Jingyi didn't care about the expressions of Lin Xixia and the others, and took her people, walking towards her former courtyard with a happy mood.

This is the first time I see Lin Xixia suffer a loss and she doesn’t dare to refute. It feels so good.

Is this the joy of being a villain?

"Hahaha, I finally got rid of my anger today." Xia Zhu said happily after they walked away.

"Shut up, be careful, walls have ears. If you have anything to say, talk to me when you get back."

Seeing that they were not trying to hide the smiles on their faces and were about to express their opinions, Nanny Qin hurriedly stopped them.

A few of them stuck out their tongues and didn't dare to say anything more, but from the way they walked and the smiles on their faces, you could tell that they were in a good mood.
