Having transmigrated into a book, who would still want to be a secondary wife?

Others may not know, but Chu Muyao knows Chu Tianche's temperament all too well.

Although she had already married the princess, she had taken in quite a few beautiful concubines, and people would often send her beauties as gifts.

While she was in the palace, she had heard a lot about the Second Prince's romantic escapades. She felt that any girl who fell into the Second Prince's hands was unlucky. Now that the Third Prince hadn't come, she had to protect her future sister-in-law.

"She's my good friend, Song Ruozhen," Chu Muyao said dismissively, then pointed ahead and said, "Second brother, look, eldest brother is looking for you. You'd better go!"

When Chu Tianche heard Song Ruozhen's name, a look of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He recently heard that Chu Junting was getting closer to a girl, and there were some rumors circulating in the capital. The girl's name was Song Ruozhen.

He initially found it laughable that his brother, who was known for his aversion to women and his chastity, had finally come to his senses and fallen for a woman who had been jilted at the altar. It was a huge joke.

Who would have thought... that Song Ruozhen was such an unparalleled beauty?

No wonder even the usually unmoved third brother had developed feelings for her.

Seeing that Chu Tianche had left, Chu Muyao finally breathed a sigh of relief. Turning around, she met Song Ruozhen's amused gaze and awkwardly explained:

"You don't know, my second brother has always been a womanizer, and he has quite a few beautiful concubines in his mansion. I'm worried that it would be terrible if he suddenly developed feelings for you."

Although he is also a prince, he is no match for my third brother, let alone my fifth brother. You'd better avoid him if you see him.

Song Ruozhen recalled that she had read a bit about it in the book. In the original book, Qin Shuangshuang saved Chu Tianche during the hunting competition. In addition, she was also good-looking, and Chu Tianche had even developed some feelings for her.

After all, with the female lead's halo, she wouldn't lack admirers. However, now that Qin Shuangshuang's reputation is ruined, even her luck has weakened considerably. In addition, since she plans to steal the spotlight today, she probably has no chance.

However... the Second Prince was not a good person to begin with. Rather than intercepting the assassination attempt and having to contact Chu Tianche afterward, he chose another method.

She and Qin Shuangshuang are now destined to be enemies. It would be good to take away her benefits, but it might be better to ruin her and her helpers' future.

After all, Chu Tianche looked like a troublesome person, and she didn't want to get involved with him.

"Sixth Princess, I've heard that His Highness Prince Chu and the First Prince have a good relationship?" Song Ruozhen asked.

Although Chu Junting was exceptionally outstanding among the princes, the eldest prince was no less so; one was the eldest son, and the other was the legitimate son.

In everyone's eyes, these two should be irreconcilable enemies, but what she learned in the original book was that their relationship was not bad, and Chu Junting did not have any ambition to become the crown prince.

However, today the Second Prince was murdered and nearly lost his life. Upon investigation, much of the evidence pointed to the First Prince, which chilled the Emperor's heart and caused the First Prince's status to plummet.

Chu Muyao nodded, "My eldest brother has a good personality and usually gets along well with us."

Song Ruozhen understood the situation and hoped that Chu Junting could come, as it would be best to discuss this matter with him.

"Jiaojiao, why hasn't His Highness Prince Chu arrived yet? Could it be that he's not coming?"

Tang Xuening looked around but didn't see Chu Junting, so she couldn't help but worry. The most important thing about the show she had prepared today was to let the King of Chu see it with his own eyes.

If he doesn't come, wouldn't the effect be much worse?

"Really?" Tian Jiaojiao was also surprised. "The King of Chu shouldn't be absent from such an important occasion as today."

Qin Shuangshuang unconsciously looked at Lin Zhiyue beside her. She noticed that ever since Song Ruozhen arrived, Lin Zhiyue seemed to be looking in that direction unconsciously.

"Zhiyue, what are you looking at? Could it be that you still have feelings for Song Ruozhen?"

Lin Zhiyue was stunned when he saw the red-clad beauty from afar. He had previously thought that Song Ruozhen was old-fashioned and seemed well-behaved, but was actually boring.

Since returning to the capital, he found that Song Ruozhen was completely different from the image he remembered. Even though two years had passed, she looked even more radiant and beautiful than before.

His mother's words kept echoing in his mind, so much so that now, when he saw Song Ruozhen again, he couldn't help but think that if he were to marry her, it wouldn't be so bad...

Even the Second Prince spoke up just now, which shows how beautiful Song Ruozhen is. Perhaps everyone should envy them for having such a beautiful wife now, instead of the current situation...

"How could that be?" Liu Xingche concealed his thoughts and said, "I was just thinking that the Second Prince was talking to her. Could it be that they know each other?"

Qin Shuangshuang looked at him suspiciously, "Of course not, we must have just bumped into each other today."

In her past life, the Second Prince had also met Song Ruozhen, and she keenly sensed that the Second Prince had taken a liking to Song Ruozhen's beauty, but she had used some tricks to get rid of him.

Even now, the Second Prince still has the same attitude when he sees Song Ruozhen at the hunting grounds. However, with the Prince of Chu already here, it's probably useless for the Second Prince to have any ideas.

"You'd better remember what I said, this will be your chance to shine!" Qin Shuangshuang instructed.

Only when Lin Zhiyue returns to officialdom can she live a life of luxury. She's had enough of being looked down upon like this!

When she finally gets her revenge, she'll teach those blind fools a lesson. Anyone who bullies her will suffer the consequences!

When Chu Junting and Chu Yungui arrived, almost everyone was already there, and their appearance was the center of attention.

"My third and fifth brothers have finally arrived. I was wondering if they wouldn't come on such an important occasion, since even Father Emperor is here?" Chu Tianche said with a smile.

The Empress glanced at Chu Tianche indifferently, her heart filled with displeasure. The second son was always a man of deep thoughts; what seemed like a joke was actually a veiled provocation.

It's clearly saying that Jun Ting and Yun Gui don't respect the Emperor and dare to make him wait.

"Your Majesty, Jun Ting and Yun Gui are both looking forward to the hunting competition, but they have been delayed by some matters," the Empress explained.

Chu Junting and Chu Yungui bowed respectfully, "Father, please forgive us for being late."

The Emperor was in a good mood. When he saw the two of them arrive, he waved his hand with a faint smile and said, "The military has been busy lately, so it's alright."

A cold glint flashed in Chu Tianche's eyes. He was older than Chu Junting, but his father had entrusted such important military matters to the third and fifth princes instead of him.

He had hoped to find fault with Chu Junting and his companion, which would give him an opportunity, but Chu Junting was so meticulous in his work that he still hadn't come up with a solution.

However... things should change after today!
