The peerless and dark princess

At this moment, Mu Ruohan glanced at Mu Wange and Chen Yueyao over the layers of housekeepers, and took the opportunity to glance over and look at them, "My elder sister is here, I have to go see her. I'll be leaving for a while."

"Hey, which stupid older sister of yours is this? How dare she come here?"

As he spoke, the man covered his lips and laughed, and the young ladies from the surrounding families also laughed.

"That's not the case. My elder sister just really likes the Second Prince."

"Ruohan, you're the only one who looks at her like that. Everyone in the capital knows that your elder sister is shamelessly flirting with the Second Prince. In my opinion, only someone like you is worthy of the Shangshu Mansion's eldest daughter, Mu Wange. Tsk tsk tsk tsk..."

Mu Ruohan was so happy when she heard the comments from the young ladies from the official families (aristocratic families) around her, and the smile on her face suddenly became even brighter.

However, a woman in red attire in the distance had a look of disdain on her face. Originally, she had quite a fondness for Muruohan, who was known as the "most talented woman in Kyoto", but she was greatly disappointed when she saw her.

When she turned around and looked at Mu Wange and Chen Yueyao, she felt that they were a good match. Then, without hesitation, she followed Mu Ruohan and walked towards Mu Wange.

"Sister, why did you and grandma arrive just now? I've been here for ages."

"Hey, second sister? Can't only legitimate daughters attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet?" Wange asked in surprise.

"This... His Royal Highness the Second Prince insisted that Ruohan come here to attend the Hundred Flowers Banquet."

Mu Ruohan's fingers tightly grasped the brocade handkerchief on her sleeve, but her tone did not change at all. She directly misinterpreted that she asked Chen Yunfeng to come to the Hundred Flowers Banquet as Chen Yunfeng insisting that she come.

"Oh, His Royal Highness the Second Prince is really good to me. Back then, I was whipped for taking a look at the city gate, but Sister Ruohan..."

"Sister, don't be angry. The Second Prince is in love with you..."

It seems that Mu Ruohan is doing this for Mu Wange, but she is undoubtedly reminding Wange to please the Second Prince all the time. Unfortunately, Mu Ruohan has made a wrong calculation after all. Mu Wange is no longer the same person as before.

"Okay, I understand, Second Sister. The Third Princess is still waiting for me to drink the flower dew together, so I will go with the Third Princess first."

……

"Elegy, your second sister is quite an interesting person."

She spoke only after Chen Yueyao and Mu Wange walked a short distance away.

"Yes, he is indeed an interesting person. An interesting person who could kill me if I'm not careful."

"It seems that you are not as stupid as the rumors say. Since you know everything, why were you like that before..." Chen Yueyao asked in surprise.

"Maybe your second brother's beating made me reborn, so I'm a lot smarter now, haha."

……

Chen Yueyao and Mu Wange walked hand in hand while talking, and the woman in red tights followed them, "Wait a minute, both of you."

"Huh? Are you calling us?"

Wange turned around and looked at the man, only to find that he was not familiar with him.

"Gong Qingyu, greetings to the Third Princess, Miss Mu."

Gong Qingyu called out to the two of them and immediately bowed politely.

"The daughter of Yongding Hou Gong Yu?"

Chen Yueyao thought for a moment and recalled this person. "Isn't it only the Marquis of Yongding who came to the capital?"

Mu Wange didn't know who this person was, but after hearing what Chen Yueyao said, he wondered if the Marquis of Yongding's arrival in the capital would disrupt the current situation. This meant that the Marquis of Yongding was usually not in the capital, and he was also a marquis of a fiefdom. Why was he coming to the capital at this time? Mu Wange pondered all sorts of things in his mind...

"Yes, Daddy came to the capital. I've never been to Kyoto in my life, so I begged him to come with me. However, those girls are not fun to be with. After meeting the Third Princess and Miss Mu, I felt that I could get along with you and wanted to be friends with you."

"Friend? Aren't you afraid that I'll sell you out along with the elegy?"

Chen Yueyao rarely made a joke. After being in the palace for a long time, her hands were more or less dirty, and she had seen a lot of dirty things. It was rare for her to see such a clean and free-spirited person. People who could directly express their likes and dislikes were what she envied and demanded.

"Third Princess, since you said that, it means it won't happen."

……

After several conversations, I found that Gong Qingyu was really pure. She was completely different from Mu Wange and Chen Yueyao, who were calm and calculated from time to time.

At this moment, the Queen asked the palace maids to call Muruohan. She expected that Muruohan would ask her son Chen Yunfeng to bring her to the Hundred Flowers Banquet. It just so happened that she also wanted such a person to do the job, so she simply turned a blind eye and let Chen Yunfeng bring Muruohan into the palace.

"Second Miss Mu, the Queen needs you to do something."

The old nanny received the queen's nod and spoke.

"Your Majesty, the Queen, you say so, and Ruohan will definitely do it."

Muruohan answered tremblingly, which made the queen frown a little, but she still didn't say anything.

The old lady walked straight to Mu Ruohan, said a few words in her ear, and then placed a small medicine bottle in her hand.

"Your Majesty, this..."

"Second Miss Mu, you have accomplished this. After your mother is promoted to the principal wife, I will issue an imperial decree for the Second Prince to marry you as his principal wife."

Mu Ruohan thought about it for a moment, but the words "for the queen" made her firm. "Ruohan is willing to serve the queen. I will definitely get things done."

"Then wait for good news from Miss Mu."

The old nanny then signaled Muruohan to leave.

The Queen sat in the main seat and sneered, "She's the one who's still dreaming of becoming my son's principal wife? Only because she has the title of 'talented woman' does she qualify as my son's concubine. Otherwise... hehe."

"Your Majesty is right. The Second Prince is not something a concubine like her can dream of. Anyway, as long as this is done, Your Majesty will be one step closer to gaining control of the Chu family's military power. If it weren't for Chu Moxuan... However, the Prince of Yan's Mansion is still within Your Majesty's control."

"If it weren't for the emperor, how could Mu Wange be worthy of my son...what about the Second Prince?"

"Don't worry, Madam. I have made all the arrangements. I am just waiting for Second Miss Mu. As long as she gives it to First Miss Mu..."

"Well, then come with me to meet those ladies." The queen stood up, straightened herself up, and held the old nanny's arm.

On the other side, Mu Ruohan was holding the medicine in her arms, thinking about how to sprinkle it on Mu Wange's body, but she couldn't think of any way for a while.

However, the old nanny's words were deeply engraved in her mind. As long as her mother promoted her to be the principal wife, she would soon be able to marry into the royal family...

On the other side of Muruohan was Zhao Xinya, the legitimate daughter of the Zhao family. The Zhao family was on the same side as the crown prince Chen Yunjie.

At the same time, she was always outshined by Muruohan, a concubine's daughter, in gatherings with young ladies from aristocratic families. Seeing Muruohan, she was immediately furious. "Oh, this is a talented woman. Why did she follow a certain prince into the palace? Isn't this for legitimate daughters? Oh, I forgot, the second prince..."

"you……"

Muruohan was speechless because of Zhao Xinya's words.
