Rebirth: Phoenix Riding the Ninth Heaven

Wang Yuyan carefully selected three beautiful concubines for the Crown Prince and brought them into his harem at the same time. This left the Crown Prince with a difficult decision: which concubine's room should he visit on the same night?

Wang Yuyan, fully aware of the Crown Prince's preferences and personality traits, has carefully selected three women, each with their own distinct characteristics, to suit his needs. The first concubine, Qiao Xinran, is gentle, graceful, and considerate; the second is intelligent and talented; and the third is charming and alluring. No matter what type of woman the Crown Prince prefers, he will find his ideal match among these three concubines.

However, this was a vexing problem for the Crown Prince. After all, he couldn't be in the rooms of three concubines at once. Furthermore, if he asked all three to sleep with him, he would likely draw criticism from the court officials, who would mock him as a dissolute and womanizing monarch.

Faced with this dilemma, the crown prince fell into deep thought. He knew his every move would be scrutinized, especially when it came to matters of state. As the ruler of a nation, he must always maintain a clear mind and make wise decisions. In this situation, how to manage his relationship with his concubines would be a test of his wisdom and self-control.

The prince was also in a state of panic in his own palace. He really wanted to go to Qiao Xinran. After all, she was gentle and considerate, and was pregnant with his child. However, the fathers and brothers of the other two concubines were also very important in the court. His foundation was still unstable, and he needed someone to support him in his hesitation. So he went to Meng Wanjun. Meng Wanjun was born into a family of poetry and literature. In this way, if he was close to Meng Wanjun, those who were kind to him would not find fault with him and attack him madly.

The prince looked towards his palace, his heart filled with anxiety and helplessness. He knew that if he didn't make a choice, he would lose everything. He couldn't let his dreams be shattered, nor could he let his efforts go to waste. So, he decided to take action and personally went to Meng Wanjun's bedroom.

When he arrived at Meng Wanjun's bedroom, he saw Meng Wanjun sitting on the bed, looking at him tiredly. He walked to the bed and sat down, gently stroking Meng Wanjun's hair, and said, "Wanjun, I'm here."

Meng Wanjun raised her head, tears glistening in her eyes. She held the prince's hand tightly and said, "Your Highness, you are finally here. I was afraid that the prince would not like me.

The Crown Prince gently patted Meng Wanjun's hand and said in a gentle and soothing tone, "How could I not like her? The Crown Princess personally selected her for me, so she must be the one I like best. Your talent and appearance are both outstanding, so why should you be suspicious?" He smiled at Meng Wanjun, his eyes full of tenderness and concern, and then said, "I came to visit you, didn't I?"

Meng Wanjun nestled gently in the prince's arms, her delicate body trembling slightly, like a delicate flower in need of protection. Her beautiful eyes shone with shyness and anticipation, as bright as stars. Her fingers gently stroked the prince's chest, feeling his firm muscles and warm body temperature, her heart filled with happiness and satisfaction.

She whispered softly, "Today is our wedding night. Please, Prince, have mercy on me..." Her voice was filled with a hint of shyness and tenderness, like a gentle breeze, which made people feel pity and love. Her words were like the gurgling water, nourishing the prince's heart and making him feel endless love and tenderness.

The prince hugged Meng Wanjun tightly, gazing at her face lovingly, his eyes gleaming with genuine emotion. He gently opened his lips and replied, "Wanjun, don't worry, I will treat you well..." His voice was low and magnetic, like beautiful music, entering Meng Wanjun's ears, making her heart pound.

The two embraced each other, enjoying this warm and romantic moment. Their hearts were connected at this moment, and they looked forward to a beautiful future together. This wedding night will become a precious memory in their lives, witnessing the growth of their love.

The next morning, sunlight streamed through the window lattice. The Crown Prince rose, refreshed and ready to attend the morning court. Meanwhile, Meng Wanjun, enduring aches and pains throughout her body, struggled to rise from her bed. After washing and dressing herself, she dragged her exhausted body to the Crown Princess's palace to pay her respects.

When Meng Wanjun entered the hall, she saw the Crown Princess sitting dignifiedly in the main seat, her expression majestic. Meanwhile, the two concubines, Qiao Xinran, stared at her with jealousy and resentment, as if they wanted to devour her. As for Qi Zhenzhu, she sat to the side with a look of disdain, her eyes filled with contempt.

Faced with such a scene, Meng Wanjun felt a sense of helplessness, but she still walked respectfully before the Crown Princess, bowed deeply, and said softly, "I pay my respects to the Crown Princess. May you be blessed with good fortune."

Wang Yuyan said gently, "Sister Meng, get up quickly. You worked hard to take care of the prince yesterday. We are all family from now on. There is no need to be so polite." Qiao Xinran said sarcastically, "Yes, we are a family from now on. Then I will trouble Sister Meng to take good care of the prince.

We both entered the palace on our first day, and the prince actually went to your palace first. Sister Meng must have something special about her! Don’t you agree, Sister Qi? Qi Zhenzhu said disdainfully: “Who is your sister? We entered the palace at the same time. I am the only daughter in my mother’s family. I don’t have a sister like you. You should just call me sister.”

After she finished speaking, she glanced at Meng Wanjun and said to her, "Sister Meng, ignore her. She is just unruly." Meng Wanjun was very angry, but she didn't want to argue with them. She just said lightly, "Sisters, you are too serious. I am just doing my duty."

Meng Wanjun said somewhat embarrassedly, "You're too polite, Princess. This is what I should do." However, at this moment, Qiao Xinran suddenly sneered and said, "Hmph, you're just a vixen who seduces men." Her words stunned everyone present, and Meng Wanjun was so angry that she was shaking all over.

Wang Yuyan couldn't just sit there and watch the show. She looked at Qiao Xinran with a cold expression and gently scolded her, "Sister Xinran, how can you be so rude?"

Qiao Xinran's expression changed when she heard this, but she still said unconvincedly, "But..."

Wang Yuyan interrupted her and said firmly, "There's no buts! Where the prince goes is his own decision, and we can't make irresponsible comments behind his back. Besides, you are all his concubines, and this is what you are supposed to do. What is there to complain about?"

After hearing this, Qiao Xinran's face turned very ugly, but he still didn't dare to refute and could only lower his head and remain silent.

Wang Yuyan continued, "If I hear you talking about the prince behind his back again, don't blame me for being rude." After saying that, she glanced at the three people kneeling on the ground, then turned and left.

When the three of them saw Wang Yuyan leaving, they quickly stood up and bowed respectfully to her to express their gratitude. They knew that if Wang Yuyan hadn't stopped them in time, they would probably have caused even greater trouble.

However, Qiao Xinran didn't think so. She felt that all this was done deliberately to humiliate her and degrade her status and position. She was filled with dissatisfaction and anger, but she didn't dare to show it on her face. She could only swallow her anger and accept this arrangement.

After all, she was pregnant with the dragon fetus and should have enjoyed higher treatment and respect, but now she was arranged to have the same status as other concubines, which made her feel extremely wronged and unwilling. But for the sake of the child in her belly, she could only endure it all silently.

Qiao Xinran sat in her room, anxiously awaiting the prince's arrival. However, as time passed, the prince still didn't show. Her dissatisfaction and disappointment gradually built up. Finally, upon learning that the prince had chosen to visit Qi Zhenzhu's room tonight, Qiao Xinran could no longer contain her anger and slammed her teacup to the ground.

The crisp sound of breaking echoed in the air, startling the nearby maids at the sudden action. They rushed forward in panic to clean up the mess, but Qiao Xinran unceremoniously waved them away. "Go, go, go! Get out of here!" she roared, her voice filled with fury and resentment. The maids retreated tremblingly, not daring to say a word.

Qiao Xinran was overcome with emotion. She couldn't accept being ignored. The rage within her grew stronger and stronger, threatening to consume everything. She slammed the table, tears welling in her eyes. She felt deeply wronged and insulted, and the feeling nearly drove her wits apart.

Qiao Xinran realized that if she continued like this, she might completely lose the prince's heart. But she was unwilling to give up and decided to take action to save the situation. She knew that only through her own efforts could she change the status quo and win back the prince's attention and favor.

The next morning, Qiao Xinran made his usual way to the Crown Princess's chambers to pay his respects. Along the way, he reflected on the wonderful time he had spent with the Crown Prince the previous night, hoping to once again earn his favor. However, halfway through his journey, he unexpectedly ran into Meng Wanjun and Qi Zhenzhu.

At the intersection leading to the Crown Princess's palace, the three of them unexpectedly encountered each other. Qi Zhenzhu walked proudly ahead of Qiao Xinran, her steps light and airy. Her expression and demeanor resembled a proud peacock flaunting its beautiful feathers. Qiao Xinran, observing this overbearing woman, felt a surge of resentment. Qi Zhenzhu's actions were undoubtedly a declaration of her superiority over the three concubines, while leaving her as the least valued.

Qiao Xinran silently followed Qi Zhenzhu, muttering to himself, "Why is this woman so annoying!" He vowed to himself that he would find a way to impress the Crown Prince and stop being outdone by the other two concubines. Tonight, in particular, he desperately hoped the Crown Prince would visit his chambers to prove his status and charm.

Meanwhile, Qi Zhenzhu seemed to sense Qiao Xinran's discontent, but she didn't care. Instead, she was smug, thinking she had successfully aroused Qiao Xinran's jealousy and envy. So, she raised her head even more arrogantly, glanced back at Qiao Xinran with a provocative look, and then quickened her pace and left.
