So she could only bow her head and say, "Yes, Your Majesty, rest assured, I will take care of it properly."

After several confrontations, the matter was settled.

In the blink of an eye, it was already the fifth day of the twelfth lunar month, the day when new members enter the family.

Qingying suggested setting up a banquet.

The wife was generous and specially had the banquet set up in her own Qionghua Courtyard.

Hongli naturally got a day off as well.

As the sky was getting dark, Fu Cha Zhuying and Su Lujun walked into the main house of Qionghua Courtyard one after another.

Concubines naturally cannot enter the mansion in the evening.

The reason they came only now was naturally because they had been in the mansion for most of the day and had packed up before coming to see the master.

Hongli and Fucha Langya sat in the main seats, while Qingying and Gao Xiyue sat on each side.

The four people's eyes fell on the two people who came in.

Su Lujun is okay, but that Fu Cha Zhuying is very beautiful.

She had a slender figure and a graceful appearance. Just one glance at her made Hongli, who was beside Qingying, sit up straighter.

"I, Fucha and Su, pay my respects to the prince and the wife."

The two men supported the maid and walked slowly forward, half-lowered their heads and knelt on their knees, followed by greetings.

Su Lujun's voice was ordinary and nothing special.

Fu Cha Zhuying's voice was as melodious as the chirping of an oriole, very touching.

But Hongli never lost his mind.

Since Fu Cha Langya is here, it is natural for her to speak.

"My two sisters just arrived today. They must have been busy until now. From now on, we are all family sisters. The prince has kindly set up this table in my Qionghua Courtyard. My two sisters don't have to be restrained. Su Lian, please give my two sisters a seat."

"Thank you, Mrs.

After some more pleasantries, the two finally sat down.

The table is not big, but there are not many people here, so there is plenty of space.

But with Hongli around, none of them could feel at ease.

The banquet, which seemed quite grand and attracted the attendance of the master of the palace, ended abruptly after only about an incense stick of time.

Seeing Hongli put down his chopsticks, the rest of the people immediately followed suit.

Fucha Langya took the handkerchief Su Lian handed her and tucked the corner of her mouth, then said, "Your Highness, today two new sisters are coming into the mansion. Sister Qingying has taken the trouble to prepare a place for them to live. She is very meritorious. I wonder if Your Highness has rewarded her?"

Hongli turned to look at Qingying and held her hand under the table. "Fujin has always been considerate of everyone in the mansion. I'm very happy. Qingying manages the affairs of the mansion for you, and you never forget to reward her. How could I forget?"

Fucha Langya's smile paused for a moment, then she continued, "In my opinion, the two new sisters have just arrived at the palace and are not familiar with everything. Why don't you stay at Sister Qingying's place today and wait for the two new sisters to recover for a few days?"

Fu Cha Langya's plan is too superficial.

Qingying had already seen through Hongli's feelings for Fu Cha Zhuying.

She pulled back her hand, held the handkerchief in her hand, and said with a smile, "I really don't deserve your words, Fu Jin. It's only because you think Fu Jin is busy with affairs that the prince gave me this job to manage some of the palace affairs. How dare I ask for any reward?"

"But the prince and his wife are so considerate and have always bestowed upon me such good things, so naturally I have no reason to refuse them."

"But today, two new sisters are coming to the palace. If the prince stays in my courtyard, and word gets out, won't others say that our palace is not governed strictly?"

"My reputation is nothing, but if someone were to make a big fuss about it and cause any inconvenience to His Majesty, that would be extremely wrong."

Qingying said a long string of words, but her expression did not change at all, and she still looked smiling.

However, Fu Cha Langya's smile completely disappeared after hearing what she said, and she didn't know what to say in response for a moment.

Hongli was also dissatisfied.

In his own opinion, now is a critical time to discuss the reserve.

How could Fu Cha Langya, as his wife, make such a foolish suggestion?

But after all, they were in front of everyone, so they still had to consider Fu Jin's face.

Hongli just smiled and didn't say anything more about this matter.

Following Qingying's words, he said, "Qingying is thoughtful. I'm glad."

Qingying smiled and asked, "Which sister do you plan to stay with today, Your Highness?"

"In that case, let's go to Yinggege's courtyard today."

Fu Cha Zhu Ying smiled upon hearing this, but a blush inevitably rose on her face. She stood up with the help of the table and stepped back two steps before bowing and saying, "Yes, I will follow your orders, Your Highness."

The gentle tone in the words made Hongli's eyes light up slightly.

Fu Cha Langya also heard the gloomy expression.

But she wasn't slow either.

Then she stood up and said, "Today is a good day for Sister Zhu Ying to enter the palace, so I will not delay His Majesty's time. Su Lian, are the sedan chairs ready?"

"In reply to the Lady, the sedan chair is already waiting outside."

Fucha Langya bowed her head slightly, then knelt down and saluted, "I respectfully bid you farewell, Your Highness."

Hongli said no more and left first.

Fu Cha Zhu Ying knelt down and bowed to Fu Jin and Qing Ying, then she supported the maid and hurriedly left behind Hong Li.

Only after they left the room did Gao Xiyue sneer, "You vixen."

Fu Jin and Qing Ying knew Gao Xiyue's personality, so they just listened to what she said.

But when Su Lujun saw Gao Xiyue like this on the first day she entered the mansion, she looked a little embarrassed.

They all entered the palace on the same day, and will surely receive your grace and favor from now on.

Today, Fu Cha Zhu Ying is called a seductive woman by Gao Shi. Will she be the one being criticized behind her back in the future?

As these thoughts were running through her mind, Su Lujun felt dissatisfied but did not dare to show it at all.

He sat silently with his head lowered, with no intention of speaking at all.

After all, she was a princess and I was a concubine. How could I compete with her?

The only thing I can do is to be a quail and pretend that I didn't hear it.

Fu Jin was still secretly saddened by Hongli's words, and had no intention of speaking to stop Gao Xiyue.

Qingying, however, found it boring.

No matter what Fu Cha Langya thinks or how dissatisfied Gao Xiyue is.

She helped惢心 stand up and said, "Fujin, it's getting late today, so I'll go back first. Sister Su is new to the mansion, so why don't you go back early to avoid getting late and having to travel at night."

The second half of the sentence was directed at Su Lujun who was silent on the side.

Su Lujun was slightly surprised when she heard this. She didn't expect that this concubine would suddenly mention her.

He subconsciously looked up at Qingying, and saw a gentle smile on the corner of her mouth, and his heart suddenly felt much more at ease.

Fucha Langya waved her hand and said, "Well, let's all go back and rest early."

Su Lujun felt as if she had been pardoned when she heard this.

He breathed a sigh of relief, stood up and walked to Qingying, bowed to Fu Jin and Gao Xiyue respectively, then followed Qingying and slowly walked out the door.

Gao Xiyue did not move immediately. Instead, she looked at Qingying's back with a look of dissatisfaction.
