The Story of a Spoiled Daughter Raising a Husband
Chapter 545 Crushing the Crowd
Tong Qian had no idea that these were the things people were talking about behind her back, and she never imagined that these people would laugh at her.
Even if she knew, Tong Qian wouldn't take it to heart. Other people's opinions are their business. No matter what others say, as long as it doesn't harm her, that's fine.
But now, after her makeover, Tong Qian no longer looked dowdy; instead, she exuded an air of nobility that other women couldn't match.
Tong Qian already had a very good temperament, and this makeover really enhanced her beauty, making her look even more stunning.
Upon seeing this, Ji Xiuping couldn't help but exclaim, "Wife, you look really beautiful today!"
Tong Qian smiled after hearing this, "You're just sweet-talking."
"I'm not sweet-talking at all, my wife. I'm telling you the truth. You're already very beautiful. If you don't believe me, just ask Wen'er."
Upon hearing this, Wen'er immediately nodded and said, "Miss, what the young master said is absolutely right. You look so beautiful dressed up, you're stunning! People can't take their eyes off you."
When Tong Qian heard this, she felt that Ji Xiuping and Wen'er's flattery was far too long. Weren't they afraid of praising themselves to the skies?
"I know I'm beautiful, but there's nothing I can do about it, it's all natural."
Tong Qian also started to admire herself, just like her husband. After her makeup was finished, she waited for a while before someone took her to the investiture ceremony.
Tong Qian led the group, following behind the palace maids. The matrons briefly discussed the rules with Tong Qian.
After listening to the explanation, Tong Qian had a general understanding of the process. Fortunately, she had someone to accompany her, so she didn't have to worry about many things and just needed to do what others said.
The investiture ceremony was held in the Imperial Palace's Hall of Succession. There were a lot of people there today, including many prominent families and high-ranking officials.
The prominent families in this country, as well as officials of the second rank and above, mostly brought their families along, and they were all very much looking forward to this investiture ceremony.
Especially those young ladies from noble families, who were all eagerly anticipating the arrival of that country bumpkin princess, never expected that instead of a country bumpkin, they would be greeted by a stunningly beautiful woman.
Tong Qian is not only exceptionally beautiful, but her aura is also outstanding, making her the kind of person who stands out in a crowd at a glance.
Coupled with her elegant and sophisticated attire, she didn't look like a country bumpkin at all. Many young ladies from well-to-do families couldn't help but feel disappointed after seeing her. Tong Qian far surpassed them. They felt their faces burning with shame after seeing the woman's appearance.
I thought I could at least get to know this country bumpkin princess, but I never expected that Tong Qian would completely overwhelm them the moment she appeared.
Among all the girls present, everyone paled in comparison when they saw Tong Qian.
If there is anyone who can compare to Tong Qian in terms of both appearance and temperament, it is Wu Yue'er.
As a young lady from a prominent family, Wu Yue'er naturally had to come to this event. No one knew who this suddenly appointed princess was, and everyone couldn't help but feel a little curious.
After waiting for a while, Wu Yue'er was completely stunned when she saw the princess's appearance.
She never imagined that the princess everyone had been talking about these past few days was Tong Qian.
When she saw the woman in front of her, her mind went completely blank. The news was so shocking that she couldn't process it at all.
At first, Wu Yue'er thought she was seeing things, but after rubbing her eyes and looking at Tong Qian a few more times, she realized that she was not seeing things at all. The person in front of her was indeed her.
She couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hand, never expecting that the newly appointed princess was Tong Qian.
At first, Wu Yue'er thought Tong Qian was just an ordinary rural woman, but she never expected that she had such a prominent identity behind the scenes.
Looking back, it didn't seem so strange to them. From the very beginning, she felt that Tong Qian was extraordinary. After getting to know her, Wu Yue'er felt even more that Tong Qian was not a simple person at all.
Now that we understand Tong Qian's true identity, our previous doubts can be explained.
I remember that Tong Qian didn't reveal her identity at the beginning, probably because she had her own reasons. But no matter what, she has finally been made a princess, and everything can be considered to have come to an end after all her hardships.
As a friend, Wu Yue'er naturally hoped that Tong Qian could have a better life.
Being able to become a princess signifies a prestigious status, especially for Tong Qian, who has to face many challenges. Having such a status is certainly a good thing. After recovering from her shock, Wu Yue'er was naturally very happy for Tong Qian.
The young ladies from prominent families watching nearby couldn't help but feel jealous of Tong Qian. They whispered in Wu Yue'er's ear, "Yue'er, if you ask me, this newly appointed princess isn't all that great! She's not as pretty as you, and she doesn't have your kind of elegance."
"I think so too. It's just that their life is so good. They've transformed from a chicken into a phoenix."
"That's right, look at this newly appointed princess, she's far inferior to our Yue'er."
In the prominent families of the capital, especially among the daughters of wealthy and influential families, Wu Yue'er was a figure of great awe and respect.
The new emperor has just ascended the throne, and his power base is not yet stable. Wu Yue'er's family is very powerful, especially her cousin, who has gained the old emperor's favor.
Although Wu Yue'er was not a princess, among these young ladies from prominent families, they treated her with even more respect than they would a princess.
After all, the powerful families are very dissatisfied with the new emperor and secretly wish that he would be killed one day. They don't care about the princess at all.
Unless the new emperor's foundation is solid, he can truly assume the emperor's position and grasp all the power in his hands.
Therefore, these young ladies from prominent families felt that currying favor with Wu Yue'er was the wise choice at this time.
These people were whispering this in Wu Yue'er's ear, simply trying to sow discord between Wu Yue'er and the new princess.
