After rebirth, I don’t want to be a Mary Sue heroine anymore!

Wen Qiao didn't say anything, but she knew that the amulet Luo Qingqing gave her was not a good thing. So Wen Qiao whispered in my ear: "Be careful with this amulet. If it's not a good thing, don't fall for it."

I knew that, too. I leaned over and whispered in her ear, "There is something wrong with this amulet. I'll tell you more about it another day. I'll pay attention to it. Thanks for reminding me."

Several people took a carriage back to the Prime Minister's Mansion. Along the way, Luo Qingqing was very happy. She seemed to feel that her fate had changed at this moment, and her whole face began to glow.

After becoming the Prime Minister, she became even more arrogant. That night, she even slapped a maid because the water she brought to her was not at the right temperature.

That night, I was outside practicing martial arts. I happened to see the maid crying, and I found out after asking her casually. I hated people like her, so I immediately transferred her back to my courtyard.

This maid is called Xiaotao. She was originally from my courtyard, but because I went to my grandfather's house, some of them were asked to serve me.

I told Wang Yuyuan about this. When Wang Yuyuan heard that Luo Qingqing hit my people, she immediately transferred back the people who were serving her, except Li Cui.

I didn't want Li Cui to live in my yard in the first place, and Luo Qingqing couldn't bear to leave Li Cui either, so that's perfect.

Luo Qingqing was a little unhappy that I had transferred all the people in her yard back. Luo Qingqing felt that once they were given to her, they were hers, and I usually didn't come back, but now I was asking for them back.

This was a complete slap in her face. She went to Luo Wenqian overnight to seek justice. Luo Qingqing ran to Luo Wenqian and said, "Dad, do my sister and the madam dislike me? They clearly gave me the servant, but now my sister wants it back. Have I offended my sister in any way?"

Luo Wenqian also frowned as he listened. He felt that people were like objects, and once given away, there was no reason to take them back.

So he came to my yard to argue with me. As soon as Luo Wenqian entered the yard, he pushed open my door angrily.

Wang Yuyuan and I were both there at the moment, and we saw Luo Wenqian push the door open. Wang Yuyuan was immediately furious, and without paying any attention to Luo Wenqian who was angry, she said, "Is this your character as a scholar? There is a difference between men and women, but you didn't knock before entering your daughter's room? You just pushed the door open and walked in? If this gets out, what do you think others will think of you?"

Luo Wenqian was speechless for a moment, and he didn't dare to quarrel with Wang Yuyuan. Luo Wenqian could only yell at me: "Why do you want the people you sent out back? What was sent out is sent out. There is no reason to take it back. Hurry up and send the servant you want back to Qingqing."

My eyes were extremely cold at this moment, and I knew that Luo Qingqing must have gone to complain. What is more sad than green tea is the people who can't recognize green tea and still defend it everywhere.

At this moment I also said aloud: "If it was a gift, I would naturally not take it back. But this is the person I lent her. It makes sense to return it. I'm in the mansion these few days. Is there any problem with letting my servants come to serve me?"

Luo Wenqian no longer looked like a scholar, and said like a scoundrel: "I don't care! Since you gave her the body, I don't care whether you borrowed it or gave it to her. She is still hers. Give it back to her."

I said to Luo Wenqian, "Dream on!" Luo Wenqian wanted to get angry, but Wang Yuyuan said, "Qingqing is the daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. Who is Luo Qingqing to compete with Qingqing for something? You are so protective of her, could it be that she has an unusual relationship with you?"

Every time Luo Wenqian heard this, his momentum would weaken, and his hatred for me and Wang Yuyuan would increase. At this time, he was also afraid of Wang Yuyuan.

Wang Yuyuan immediately continued: "If you make trouble again, there will be a royal banquet tomorrow. I will tell everyone that you and Luo Qingqing have a special relationship. Do you think your reputation will be ruined if I say this?"

Luo Wenqian was completely defeated when he heard what Wang Yuyuan said. He also cherished his reputation. He didn't want to see Wang Yuyuan again, so he just left.

Later, some new servants were found to serve Luo Qingqing.

Wang Yuyuan and I looked at Luo Wenqian who was confused now, and knew that Luo Wenqian was not reliable at all. The important thing now was to speed up the plan and make them all die a miserable death.

The next day, Wang Yuyuan and I returned to my grandfather's house, taking our servants with us. Our clothes and jewelry were all at my grandfather's house.

After we changed into new clothes and jewelry, we went into the palace. Today I was wearing pink clothes, with delicate makeup and hairpins, and I looked absolutely beautiful.

We met Luo Wenqian and his group at the palace gate. We are still a family, and we cannot let outsiders know about our internal discord. Now is not the right time.

Luo Qingqing thought that the clothes she bought were very expensive, and she kept looking up as she walked along. But when she carefully looked at my clothes at the palace gate, she found that the texture of my clothes was much better than hers, and the clothes were more fitting.

Although Luo Qingqing was well dressed, the people present today were all royal relatives, so how could they be short of money? Everyone knew that the princes would also attend this kind of banquet. Who wouldn't want their daughter to be favored by the prince?

Naturally, she dressed very carefully and wore the best clothes. When Luo Qingqing saw me, she stopped looking up proudly and looked at the clothes of the noble ladies around her and those I knew. The quality was better than hers. So at that moment, she felt an endless inferiority complex.

Some concubines also attended the banquet. When the emperor held the banquet, he said that all family members could attend, and it would be best if the whole family came.

Every royal relative who had a concubine's daughter brought her here. In ancient times, there were also cases where a prince married a concubine's daughter, and a concubine's daughter became the queen. Everyone was betting on this possibility.

Everyone slowly entered the palace. Luo Qingqing followed the crowd into the palace, and she was attracted by everything in front of her. The red walls and green tiles, the buildings inside were all carved from the finest golden nanmu, and there were all kinds of gems inlaid on them.

Luo Qingqing watched all this, and she also wanted to become the master of this palace.

Soon, everyone arrived at the banquet venue. We were all relatively early, so naturally, everyone complimented each other.

When everyone saw that the Prime Minister's Mansion had brought Luo Qingqing to the banquet, they naturally knew that she had some influence in the family. Many people began to ask about Luo Qingqing's identity.

How enthusiastic they were when they asked, how cold they were when they knew the answer. When everyone knew that Luo Qingqing was not even a concubine of the Prime Minister's Mansion, there was a hint of mockery in their eyes.

However, Luo Qingqing seemed not to see it. She knew that what others said at the moment was not important. What was important was that she also had to develop her own network.

Luo Qingqing was still quite sober. She didn't talk to the legitimate daughters, but to the concubines. After a while, she actually made a few friends. Among them was Wen Qiao's sister Wen Xin!

Luo Qingqing was talking and laughing with those concubines. When I looked at those concubines, I could see the word "ambition" in their eyes. Actually, I don't hate others to be ambitious, I just hope that their ambition will not climb up by stepping on innocent people.

Soon, the emperor arrived. Everyone naturally greeted the emperor first, including Concubine Wang, who was favored by the emperor.

The arrival of the emperor marked the beginning of the banquet. The emperor would hold a banquet every year on the Mid-Autumn Festival, which was a rule left by the late queen. The late queen believed that the country and the family were one, and since the Mid-Autumn Festival was a festival of reunion, it was also a time for the emperor and his subjects to bond.

Although the emperor told everyone not to be too restrained, how could the officials dare to relax? Serving the emperor is like serving a tiger, and they don't want their entire family to lose their lives by accident.

The emperor's princes were sitting on the left and right of the emperor. The emperor had five princes, and the oldest was only twenty years old. Naturally, the eldest prince was not married, and the emperor wanted to take advantage of this banquet to find a partner for the eldest prince.

The other princes were all twelve or thirteen years old, and Wen Yiheng was the youngest, the same age as us, about ten years old.

None of these princes was particularly liked by the emperor. The emperor loved the late queen to the core, but unfortunately the late queen left without leaving any children. The emperor was depressed for several years because of this, and there were no other women in the harem at that time.

However, as the ruler of a country, he naturally needed offspring to continue the family line and inherit the country's cause. Later, there were more women in the harem, but those women all looked very similar to the previous queen in some ways.

The reason why Concubine Wang was particularly favored was because she looked 80% similar to the late queen. Whenever the emperor was unhappy, he liked to go to Concubine Wang. Seeing the face that looked like his old friend, the emperor felt relieved.

The emperor didn't care about those princes at all, and they were all raised by their own mothers.

In fact, Wen Yiheng was the least likely to become emperor among all the princes. His mother was of low birth, a concubine's daughter. The other concubines were all legitimate daughters. When Wen Yiheng was born, he was often ridiculed by others for being a bastard's son.

Wen Yiheng has been a person with low self-esteem since childhood. The emperor does not love him, his mother has a low status in the palace, and he is also suppressed by several older brothers.

Even at this banquet, his seat was the farthest away from the emperor among all the princes.

The banquet began with songs and dances, which were performed by the best dancers in the palace. The performances were very smooth, and the officials and the emperor were full of praise.

The emperor would also chat with his ministers in between watching the shows.

This was Luo Qingqing's first time at such an occasion, and she also witnessed the temperament of the nobles and how luxurious the banquets were. The more Luo Qingqing saw, the greedier she became.

Luo Qingqing frantically scanned the people present at the banquet again. She urgently needed to remember these people's faces so that she could curry favor with these powerful people in the future.

When her eyes fell on Wen Yiheng's face, Luo Qingqing was completely stunned. She also realized that Wen Yiheng was the person she bumped into yesterday. She didn't expect that she would push away the wealth that was offered to her.

Naturally, she was unwilling to accept this. When she was thinking about how to explain this matter, she saw Wen Yiheng also looking at her.

Wen Yiheng naturally recognized her. He didn't expect that the arrogant person from yesterday would see her again. A smug smile appeared on Wen Yiheng's face.

The emperor would also mention my name at the banquet, but he would only praise me. He even said at this banquet: "My dear, you are the lucky star of our Great Yun Dynasty. My son, if you want someone to marry you in the future, just tell me. I will grant you a marriage. Your husband will be the future ruler of the Yun Dynasty."

Although the emperor was a little drunk when he said this, the speaker was unintentional, but the listener took it seriously.

After hearing this, the princes all looked at me. I looked straight at them after feeling their gazes. They probably didn't expect me to look back at them. If it were anyone else, they would have lowered their heads in embarrassment.

After Luo Qingqing heard the emperor's words, she also began to look at the princes, with a scrutinizing and examining gaze. She was now beginning to choose her future husband.

It's just that the princes never set their sights on Luo Qingqing. The reason I looked at her was that in my previous life, I didn't look at her carefully or even select her. My father asked me to choose Wen Yiheng, and Wen Yiheng always cared about me. I chose her without analyzing the pros and cons.

In fact, there are more suitable candidates than Wen Yiheng. In this life, I need to consider it carefully.

After a while, the banquet performance ended and the emperor left, followed by Concubine Wang.

Only the princes and officials were present. Everyone started to chat and laugh about family matters. The princes would also join in the conversation.

But they all have a purpose. The princes are also trying to win over the ministers in the court. If the emperor suddenly dies one day, who will inherit the throne? This naturally requires the secret support of the ministers in the court.

This time, the princes all went to look for their own forces. Wen Yiheng walked towards us.

When Luo Qingqing saw Wen Yiheng coming, she bowed stiffly at first. Then she said to Wen Yiheng: "Hello, Fifth Prince. I apologize for offending you yesterday. I hope you can forgive my mistakes."

Wen Yiheng stood by with his hands behind his back, his face expressionless. He then said, "It's okay about what happened yesterday. I won't blame you." Then Wen Yiheng ignored Luo Qingqing.

Wen Yiheng said to me: "I didn't expect to see you yesterday and to see you again today. It seems like this is really fate."

I smiled slightly and said, "Your Highness, I am sorry for making such a fuss. It is an honor to be able to see you so often."

Wen Yiheng smiled and said: "Then I wonder if I can come to see you more often in the future? I think we get along pretty well."

I could only smile and say, "Of course you can."

If you don't come to me, how can I see you and Luo Qingqing hooking up? I will be happy only if you two hook up together!

Luo Qingqing looked at me with vicious eyes. She looked at Wen Yiheng carefully again and found that he was also good-looking. Luo Qingqing thought that since she could go to the Prime Minister's Mansion frequently, she would be able to get along with Wen Yiheng. Then she would see if Wen Yiheng's personality was easy to grasp. If it was easy to grasp, it would be nice to be with him and become the master of the world.
