The peerless and dark princess

Although Zuo Ci didn't quite understand why this matter ended up falling on him, he told Leng Qing after Du Yuanhuai left, because he had to take Zuo Qi away. Everyone knew that Zuo Qi was Zuo Ci's personal servant.

Two days ago, Muruohan was carried into the residence of the second prince Chen Yunfeng in a sedan chair. Somehow, Zhao Yaxin seemed to have received advice from her parents, and did not make a fuss about Chen Yunfeng staying in Muruohan's room that night. Instead, she followed the queen.

When Muruohan gained Chen Yunfeng's favor, she thought she had surpassed Zhao Yaxin and was secretly proud of herself. She actually threw Shen Xinyue's previous instructions behind her back and was even very arrogant. She thought that although Zhao Yaxin was a concubine, she still didn't dare to challenge her. She became more and more arrogant, and punished the maids and servants in the second prince's mansion if she was not satisfied.

In just a few days, he had already angered the steward and the housekeeper nanny assigned by the Queen to the Second Prince's residence.

"Empress, this second young lady from the Shangshu Mansion is really... Now that the Second Prince favors her, the mansion is completely..."

"She is so insolent. You are also not presentable. Since the second prince married you as a concubine and there is no principal wife in the prince's mansion, how can you allow her to do so..." Although Queen Meng Yujiao looked down on Zhao Yunliang's daughter, she had married into the family after all, and was at least better than Muruohan.

"Mother, Nanny also said that the Second Prince dotes on her extremely... How dare she?"

"Forget it. The Second Prince's mansion cannot tolerate such a chaotic atmosphere. The Second Prince will have to... Why is it like this? You, go back and pass on the imperial decree. Tell him that I'm not feeling well and have Mu Ruohan copy scriptures for a few days..."

Meng Yujiao also knew what this man was thinking. Otherwise, why would Chen Yan, with so many women, choose herself as the queen? Therefore, she did not express her displeasure directly, but... even if her son Chen Yunfeng knew, then wouldn't it just be...

Sure enough, when Chen Yunfeng just finished discussing things with the ministers and returned to Mu Ruohan's courtyard, Mu Ruohan began to cry, "Your Highness, the housekeeper just asked me to copy the scriptures... but the scriptures are so... How about you talk to the Empress and ask the concubine to help copy the scriptures?"

"Han'er, this is for the good of Mother, you should just copy it."

Chen Yunfeng was thinking that his mother didn't like Muruohan in the first place. If he could get her to copy some scriptures and win her favor, wouldn't that be even better? Besides, every time he saw her, she would talk about those things, and every word of her instructions was... Actually, he didn't have such a strong desire for that position, but he couldn't resist his mother...

"Your Highness, are you..."

"Han'er, I'm doing this for your own good. If I can win the favor of the Queen Mother, then..."

Chen Yunfeng was genuinely doing this for Mu Ruohan's own good. He felt that the position of a concubine was indeed unfair to her, and he had no other way to help Ruohan, so he had no choice but to put Ruohan in a difficult position first. Therefore, the sedan chair he sent her that day was extremely fine, and even the wedding dress he had embroidered privately. As for Zhao Yaxin, the concubine who entered the mansion that day, he didn't even glance at her...

When Mu Ruohan heard Chen Yunfeng talking about the queen, yes, there was a queen behind him. The most important thing now was to win the queen's favor. After all, Zhao Xinya had previously advertised herself according to the standards of the Crown Princess, and now... isn't this a good opportunity? It must be said that Mu Ruohan was a little more sober at this moment, and she had some shadows of Shen Xinyue.

Indeed, ever since Zhao Yaxin was betrothed to Chen Yunfeng as a concubine, her life hadn't been easy. Although her mother doted on her, it was because she believed she would become the Crown Princess, securing a bright future for her younger brother, Zhao Wenbo. But after losing her virginity to the Second Prince, Chen Yunfeng, at the Hundred Flowers Banquet, she wasn't treated so well. They still prepared a dowry for her out of shame... and her father, Zhao Yunliang... That's why she was so indifferent in the Second Prince's mansion, even knowing that Chen Yunfeng favored Mu Ruohan night and night, she didn't dare...

"Miss!!"

Zhao Yaxin's other personal maid couldn't help but feel a little sorry for her.

"Nothing, we'll know that day anyway. Isn't it?"

"But..." The maid thought about how glorious Zhao Xinya was in the past, and why she became like this now.

"Ugh~" Zhao Xinya couldn't help but feel a little nauseous. She had been feeling a little nauseous these past few days.

"Miss, you should see a doctor. You look a little pale these days."

"Dongxue, goodbye, otherwise if His Highness finds out, I'm afraid..."

In the Second Prince's mansion, Zhao Yaxin was only taken care of by her personal maid Dongxue. The other servants and maids were opportunists. Seeing that Zhao Yaxin was not favored by Chen Yunfeng, they ignored her. Fortunately, the two of them had enough supplies, so they just allocated a remote courtyard for them to live in.

Before, Zhao Yaxin was arrogant and self-proclaimed to be smart and superior to others. After experiencing the banquet that day and hearing what her mother and brother Zhao Wenbo said, she was immediately chilled. She thought about how she had made fun of Mu Wange and others, but now she is... Mu Wange has the Prince of Yan's Mansion behind him, and she... She also remembered how she ridiculed her elder brother Zhao Yanqing when she was at home... and her brother Zhao Wenbo, who was born of the same mother, couldn't help but smile foolishly.

"Miss, don't scare me!!! What are you doing???"

"It's nothing, I just remembered the past. Dongxue, was I really bad in the past?"

"No, the young lady is the legitimate daughter, so naturally she wants the best. But His Highness, why..."

"Dongxue, don't make up stories about His Highness. Be careful, this is the prince's residence, and we..."

"Miss, you have changed a lot."

Dongxue looked at Zhao Yaxin in front of her. She had become a different person after entering the Second Prince's mansion. If she hadn't been following Zhao Yaxin all the time, she would have thought she had become a different person.

"Now, there are only the two of us in the Second Prince's mansion. I have no family to rely on, and His Highness only has Muruohan in his heart and eyes. The Queen also thinks I am the Crown Prince's person, so naturally she won't like me. Although my marriage was arranged by His Majesty, after all, this matter is not glorious..."

Dongxue rarely heard Zhao Yaxin speak so long, so she felt very sorry for her. Thinking about the Zhao Yaxin in the past and the Zhao Yaxin now...

"Miss, Dongxue will always be by your side. She will always be with you."

Dongxue felt a little chilled when she thought about what her young lady's mother had said that day. At the same time, she looked at this gorgeous house. There was no life at all. It seemed as if it surrounded the young lady. Could she think of a way to make the young lady happy? Oh, her body... wait, could it be... If so, then he is the heir to the throne!!!
