Destroy the scumbag husband, beat the bitch, the reborn legitimate daughter overturns the entire cap
Chapter 61 Recalling My Past Life!
Mu Xinnuan had some idea of what Mu Xinyao would encounter today. She just hadn't expected to become someone Yang Yu'er and her friends befriended. She had initially thought they'd only given her an invitation because of her grandmother, but now it seemed there was another reason.
"Anuan, I heard that you presented some furniture that you made yourself to Madam Li's birthday banquet. Is that true?"
Mu Xin Nuan looked over upon hearing the voice and saw that it was Miss Sun Ruo Xiang from the Sun family. She smiled and said, "How can it be considered as doing it by hand? Many of the rough jobs were done by my cousin and two younger brothers. My cousin and I only painted the paint together and then assisted."
"Ah Nuan is indeed clever; she actually came up with such a good idea. I heard that Old Madam Li moved all those things to her own courtyard and keeps an eye on them every day."
Mu Xin Nuan smiled shyly, and just then, Li Wan Yue arrived.
Mu Xin Nuan noticed that when they saw Li Wan Yue, Yang Yu Er and the others' gazes changed drastically. They all greeted her with great enthusiasm, even more so than before! Could it be that it was because of this older cousin that they treated her differently?
After exchanging a few pleasantries with the girls, Li Wanyue pulled Mu Xinnuan to sit down with her.
"I heard that in a few days, the Crown Princess will be hosting a birthday banquet at the Crown Prince's residence, and Miss Li has been invited to attend?" Yang Yu'er asked with a smile.
Li Wanyue blushed, nodded somewhat embarrassedly, and remained silent.
Mu Xinyao, who had come in with Mu Xinnuan earlier, sat down with the other young ladies on her own. From a distance, they seemed to be getting along quite well!
"Big cousin, are you going to visit the East Palace?"
Li Wanyue's face turned even redder, and she nodded, "I just received the invitation from the Crown Princess a couple of days ago. Not only am I going, but my second sister will also be going."
"Second cousin?"
Before Mu Xin Nuan could react, she heard Sun Ruo Xiang say disdainfully, "Your General's Second Miss? Her? She's just a concubine's daughter, how could she be worthy of attending the banquet at the East Palace? I heard that it was only because her mother used some tricks, that she went through several layers of connections, that she managed to get an invitation for Li Wan Qing!"
Yang Yu'er listened and said somewhat dismissively, "That's right, Li Wanqing is just a concubine's daughter, how could she possibly be worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince? On the other hand, Sister Wanyue comes from a noble family, and she is also beautiful, well-educated and reasonable. Otherwise, how could she have caught the eye of the Crown Princess?"
The words were spoken, and everyone understood without saying a word. Mu Xin Nuan immediately realized that it was her eldest cousin who had caught the eye of the Crown Princess.
However, although the Crown Princess is kind, the Eastern Palace is not a peaceful place. My eldest cousin is straightforward and a bit too cheerful; if she were to enter the Eastern Palace, it would likely bring more trouble than good.
Thinking back to her past life, the Prince Ming successfully seized the throne, not only killing the Crown Prince but also massacring the entire Eastern Palace! In that life, her eldest cousin had also married the eldest grandson of the Emperor as a concubine, but she died in childbirth before the Prince Ming's massacre of the Eastern Palace could take place. Would this tragedy repeat itself in this life?
Mu Xin Nuan wanted to persuade Li Wan Yue not to marry into the Eastern Palace, but when she thought about the status and position of the eldest grandson of the emperor, how could women like them make such a decision? If the Crown Princess really took a liking to her eldest cousin, then no matter what, in the end, her eldest cousin would still marry into the Eastern Palace.
Thinking of the eldest grandson of the emperor, who clearly possessed a more arrogant air, Mu Xin Nuan suddenly felt that the man exuded a gloomy aura. With her older cousin's personality, if she were to marry into the Eastern Palace, her fate would likely be grim. Who knew if her difficult childbirth in her past life was due to some kind of scheme?
More importantly, Mu Xin Nuan hadn't yet considered how much change her rebirth would bring to this life. At least for now, the Ming King remained wise, as he always acted discreetly and never sought favor! Such a Ming King was indeed difficult to guard against!
Having been given a second chance at life, Mu Xin Nuan has made up her mind not to marry into a wealthy and powerful family again. As long as someone has a clean background and is devoted to her, wealth and status are nothing but fleeting clouds. However, things seem to be a bit troublesome with her older cousin.
Mu Xin Nuan couldn't help but recall the Ming King's power grab in her previous life, which ended with a bloody massacre of the Eastern Palace. So many beautiful women were either killed by him or given away as playthings to his subordinates. Could such a person of such despicable character be expected to be a good emperor?
If my eldest cousin marries into the Eastern Palace, even if she is able to cleverly deal with all kinds of troubles, if the Ming King were to seize power again in the end, wouldn't her fate be exceptionally tragic?
Mu Xin Nuan was filled with worry. She glanced at her older cousin, who was still somewhat shy, and then looked at Yang Yu'er beside her. Her heart was filled with mixed feelings.
Yang Yu'er also has feelings for the eldest grandson of the emperor, there's no doubt about that! But right now she's putting on a show of fully supporting her older cousin, which clearly means she has other intentions!
Mu Xin Nuan knew that Yang Yu'er was definitely not as generous and gentle as she appeared on the surface.
"Let's go, Mother has hired a theatrical troupe for me. They've set up a stage in the back garden. Let's go watch the show together," Yang Yu'er invited the young ladies.
The group then went off in twos and threes, with Mu Xin Nuan naturally accompanying Li Wan Yue.
As the two walked, Mu Xin Nuan deliberately lowered her voice and asked, "Big cousin, does Aunt also want you to attend the Crown Princess's birthday banquet?"
Li Wanyue nodded, blushing. "Whoever receives the Crown Princess's invitation will surely be delighted, right?"
In a single sentence, the attitude of the entire Zhenguo General's Mansion was made clear. Mu Xin Nuan knew she was powerless to change anything and could only take it one step at a time. Perhaps she should have a good talk with her cousins or her eldest uncle.
Mu Xin Nuan was lost in thought the whole way, while Li Wan Yue also seemed somewhat absent-minded. The two of them had deliberately lagged behind in order to have a few private words, and now they were even further away from the other young ladies.
Mu Xin Nuan glanced over unintentionally and saw the little maid in front of her smile. The smugness and disdain in that smile were obvious to everyone!
Mu Xin Nuan was startled. Looking around, she saw only the little maid who had led the way. Where were the other young ladies?
"Wait a minute. Where are Miss Yang and Miss Sun?"
"Miss Mu, they're all ahead. You were talking to Miss Yang and got up late. If we hurry up, we'll see them soon enough."
Li Wanyue finally came to her senses and said somewhat embarrassedly, "It's all our fault for being so busy talking. You should lead the way."
"Yes, Miss Li."
"Wait a minute."
"Is there anything else, Miss Mu?" The little maid's expression clearly showed some impatience.
