Top white, rich and beautiful, the princess is reborn and the revenge story
Chapter 6 The Crown Princess is different from her previous life
When they returned to the palace, Zhao Baozhu angrily threw the things on the table to the ground, "Mother, look at how arrogant Zhao Yuanqing is! She was clearly the one who hurt me, and she still refuses to admit it! And the Queen, she's conflating right and wrong, how outrageous!"
When she had fallen enough, Concubine Hui held her in her arms and whispered, "My child, don't worry. The Queen and her daughter are so rampant. Sooner or later, they will be in trouble!"
"Mother, I can't wait for that day to come. Look at how arrogant the Queen is. Even Father has to give in to them."
Concubine Hui sneered, "Don't worry. The more rampant she gets, the more your father will hate her. He'll definitely deal with them when he gets the chance! My son, we just need to be patient. One day, we'll make them kneel at our feet and slap them in the face!"
Zhao Baozhu finally calmed down and said, "It's a pity that I didn't catch Zhao Yuanqing's fault today, otherwise I would have put her to death. Mother, there is no man in Zhao Yuanqing's room. What should I do?"
"Maybe something went wrong somewhere else. Don't worry, we'll slowly find another opportunity and we'll definitely be able to kill them."
Zhao Yuanqing and the Queen returned to Fengyi Palace. The Queen asked her, "Qing'er, you always defended Cui Hao. Why did you change your attitude today?"
"Mother, I was blind before. I thought he was handsome and talented. Today I realize that he is just so-so. I will never like him again."
"Okay, okay! I told you, he's just a kid from aristocratic family, he's not a great person. I'll pick a good one for you in the future."
"talk later."
"Look, Concubine Hui's face has turned green with anger. Today, we, mother and daughter, have trampled them underfoot, and your father didn't dare to say anything. It's really satisfying!"
There were many palace servants standing in Fengyi Palace, and who knew how many of them were other people's thorns. Zhao Yuanqing said, "Mother, be careful with your words, the walls have ears."
The Queen dismissed the people around her and whispered, "Don't worry, they won't dare tell anyone. Your grandfather guards the northwest border, and the peace of Daqing depends on him. No one dares to do anything to us."
"Mother, if we act so high-profile, will we arouse jealousy?"
"So what if they're jealous? I'm the queen, and no matter what I do, others will be jealous of me. Qing'er, everyone in this palace is snobbish and only sees the big picture. We have a strong backer, but we're not high-profile. Others will think we're guilty. Look at Concubine Hui. If her backer was strong, she would definitely be even more high-profile than us."
Zhao Yuanqing thought back to his previous life, and it was indeed like that. Once Concubine Hui gained power, she was almost soaring to the sky.
And the emperor, after Zhao Yuanqing's grandfather died in the previous life, he quickly eliminated the queen, the prince and Zhao Yuanqing. He must have been jealous of them for a long time.
"Mother, what about Father? Will he be unhappy?"
The Queen sighed and said, "Qing'er, we can't control whether your father likes it or not, but as long as your grandfather is here, your father won't dare to touch us, and Concubine Hui has to give in to us.
In the palace, one must rely on strength to speak, even the emperor is the same. If one is disturbed by emotions, he will surely die without a trace. This is the rule of survival in the palace.
Qing'er, all we have to do is maintain this level of strength so that they won't dare to mess with us."
It turned out that this was what the Queen Mother thought, and it was true. When my grandfather died in the previous life, they were all finished. The tremendous power was like a mirage, gone in the blink of an eye.
"But mother, grandpa is old, what if one day he..."
"Even if your grandpa is gone, we still have your uncle. Even if your uncle is gone, we still have your cousins. Our Liu family has been in the military for generations, so we won't fall so easily. Don't worry!"
Zhao Yuanqing didn't say anything else. His mother was too optimistic. She had not experienced any painful things in her previous life, so she would never believe that she would end up like that.
Zhao Yuanqing decided to keep the secret of his rebirth to himself and not tell anyone. He would first tell his mother about Hatalon so that she could be mentally prepared.
Just as she was about to speak, she heard the palace servants outside announce, "Your Majesty, the Crown Princess is here."
"please come in."
A moment later, a young woman in a lavender high-waisted skirt walked in. She had a Uighur bun and a dignified and beautiful face. It was the Crown Princess Lu Ruoyi.
When the emperor was looking for a wife for the prince, he put a lot of thought into it. To prevent the prince from becoming too powerful, he could not look for someone from a military family or a prominent family, but she could not be too bad to cause resentment among the prince. In the end, he chose a daughter of the Fanyang Lu family, one of the five surnames and seven noble families, and that was Lu Ruoyi.
Lu Ruoyi looks noble on the surface, but in fact he is of no help to the prince, so both the prince and the queen are not very satisfied with him.
In his previous life, Zhao Yuanqing didn't like Lu Ruoyi at first. Zhao Yuanqing had a spoiled personality and did things casually, while Lu Ruoyi seemed to have grown up with a ruler and did things in a very methodical way. The two had different personalities.
Later, after Zhao Yuanqing married into the Cui family, she had a hard time. Lu Ruoyi often visited her and supported her, and their relationship improved a lot.
Later, the queen hanged herself, the prince was deposed, and there was no news of Lu Ruoyi, but Zhao Yuanqing remembered her kindness.
Thinking of this, Zhao Yuanqing smiled broadly, "Hello, sister-in-law!"
Lu Ruoyi was not so enthusiastic. She looked at Zhao Yuanqing in surprise and said with a polite smile, "Hello, Princess."
Zhao Yuanqing then remembered that her relationship with Lu Ruoyi was just average at the moment, but as long as she made an effort to make friends, their relationship would definitely be as good as in her previous life.
Lu Ruoyi saluted the queen and said, "Greetings, mother."
"Okay, sit down."
Lu Ruoyi sat down and said, "Mother, the Shangsi Festival will be in a month. I'm here to ask you about the rules of the skirt tent banquet."
A month later is the third day of the third lunar month, Shangsi Festival, also known as Daughter's Day. On this day, women from wealthy families will hold skirt-tent banquets.
The Skirt Tent Banquet is divided into two parts. In the morning, there is a flower-matching competition. Whoever wears the most beautiful flower will be the flower king of the day. In the afternoon, a tent is made of silk and satin, and a banquet is held inside. Many unmarried men and women will participate. In fact, it is a large-scale blind date party.
The queen became excited when she heard this. Cui Hao had been eliminated, so she had to quickly find a better husband for Zhao Yuanqing. The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law carefully decided on the rules of the skirt tent banquet.
During the chat, Zhao Yuanqing asked Lu Ruoyi, "Does sister-in-law know about spices?"
Lu Ruoyi was stunned for a moment and shook his head, "I don't understand at all."
Zhao Yuanqing swallowed back the words she was about to say. How could she not understand? In her previous life, after she married into the Cui family, Lu Ruoyi often sent her spices. She knew all kinds of precious spices like the back of her hand. How could she say she didn't understand now?
You don’t understand it now, but you will understand it after learning it later?
Or... Lu Ruoyi clearly understood, but was lying to her?
This matter was different, so Zhao Yuanqing closed her mouth and didn't say anything. She had died once, and she would never speak her mind as easily as she did in her previous life.
The Queen smiled and said, "Your sister-in-law's favorite thing is to make tea and read. You know that."
Lu Ruoyi also laughed and said, "My parents have strict education, and I only know how to read and taste tea. Those spices are things brought over by the Hu people. I heard that one or two taels of them are worth thousands of gold. It's too extravagant. I don't like them."
Zhao Yuanqing frowned. These words were harsh to her ears. What was worth a fortune? What was extravagant? Was he talking about her?
The Queen was not happy at first and said coldly, "Shanzhen is the most noble daughter in the world. A few spices are nothing to worry about, how can you even talk about extravagance?"
Lu Ruoyi hurriedly stood up and apologized, but the queen said a few perfunctory words impatiently and let her go.
Zhao Yuanqing looked at Lu Ruoyi's back, feeling confused. Why didn't his past and present lives match up? Could it be that what he saw in his past life could be false in this life?
However, this also reminded Zhao Yuanqing that one should not define a person by the impression from the previous life. People change. She is different now than she was in the previous life, so other people must have changed as well.
The Queen asked, "Qing'er, why were you so enthusiastic towards the Crown Princess just now?"
"Well, it was just a casual thought. Mother, I was warm and enthusiastic towards her, but she mocked me for being extravagant. How annoying!"
The Queen sneered, "These people from aristocratic families love to put on airs, stepping on others to act noble. In reality, they're just poor and can't afford to show off. When they do become wealthy, they'll be even more extravagant than we are! How can she teach my daughter a lesson?"
This is very true. In the previous life, Zhao Yuanqing came to the Cui family with a dowry. The Cui family was poor but suddenly became rich, and they ate, drank and had fun much more extravagantly than Zhao Yuanqing.
"What the Queen Mother said is very true."
The Queen tapped Zhao Yuanqing's forehead and said, "Don't take the Crown Princess' words to heart. Just go and buy whatever precious spices you want. Even if you buy all the spices in Chang'an City, it won't be a big deal!"
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
"Shangsi Festival is just over a month away, so I have to start choosing flowers. This year, I must pick the most valuable and beautiful one to put Rongchang down!"
Zhao Yuanqing chuckled and hugged the queen, "Mother, you are so kind to me."
