The eldest daughter's scheming, the crown prince's exclusive favor to the venomous concubi

Although the voice was soft, Jian Yue was very close to her and naturally heard it clearly. She shook her head and smiled, but did not answer. Instead, she continued walking.

Why don't I like her? Because she has no status, because she was born of a lowly person, an unwanted bastard, and even more so because...

Jian Yue clenched her folding fan slightly and said, "According to the plan, let's go to Lan Yue Tower first and see Sister Hua."

Mentioning Sister Hua immediately lifted Xiao Cui's spirits considerably, but she still asked curiously, "Won't people criticize you for going to see Sister Hua now, young master? After all, we didn't go back to the manor first after returning; instead, we went to a place like that?"

As they were talking, Jian Yue suddenly raised her hand and hit Xiao Cui on the head with her fan. Xiao Cui winced in pain and looked up with a mournful expression. She saw her young mistress laughing and saying, "Everyone says you're a fool, and you really are a fool."

"I am no longer the disfavored illegitimate daughter of the Qiu family, but a wealthy young master from Jiangnan. What's wrong with me going to brothels for pleasure?"

Xiao Cui suddenly realized what was going on and followed Jian Yue without saying another word.

Jian Yue smiled slightly, holding a folding fan, a hint of disdain flashing in her eyes.

The Qiu family, they're dreaming of squeezing every last drop of value out of her. They should see if she's willing to do it now. Times have changed. If they want to use her, they might as well make them worry.

Her return at this moment is not to seek the family affection she could never have; she has come for revenge and to cause trouble. No one in the Qiu family will be able to stay out of it!

The fourth floor of Lan Yue Tower is an important place within the tower. Normally, no one except the tower owner is allowed to enter. However, today, seeing the peerless tower owner sternly ordering that no one is allowed to enter the fourth floor, and that anyone who disobeys will be executed without mercy, it is clear that a very important person who cannot be offended has come to this floor today.

Hua Xiangrong was surprised by Jian Yue's arrival, especially in this attire. She lay languidly on the chaise lounge, her red dress barely concealing her body. If a man saw her, his blood would surely boil.

At this moment, this great beauty was looking directly at Jian Yue, her smile never fading.

About fifteen minutes later, Jian Yue finally couldn't sit still any longer and said with a wry smile, "Sister Hua, can you stop smiling?"

As he spoke, his comical little mustache twitched, which made Hua Xiangrong finally burst out laughing: "Haha, little Yueyue, how can you be so cute? Where did this little mustache come from? It's really funny."

Jian Yue shook her head and rubbed her head, saying, "Sister Hua, I'm not back to play around this time."

Upon hearing this, Hua Xiangrong's flirtatious eyes flickered: "What? So you didn't come here specifically to see your sister? I'm really disappointed."

Jian Yue was speechless, staring wide-eyed in embarrassment, unsure of what to say.

Seeing this, Hua Xiangrong stopped teasing her and just smiled and said, "Alright, I won't tease you anymore. A month ago, news came from the palace that the heir of Qingyan Marquis was about to return to the capital, and the emperor was preparing to bestow a marriage upon him. It is said that it is a young lady from the Qiu family."

Jian Yue paused slightly in her teacup, looked up at Hua Xiangrong, who smiled sarcastically and said, "You really are an old fox. That prince is said to be crooked, with a crooked mouth and eyes. If it weren't for his mother being the current princess, this prince might have been ruined long ago. Now, Qiu Zhenzhou has called you back, he's determined to have you marry in place of his precious darling."
