As soon as they entered the side hall of the courtyard, the three concubines who had been waiting for a long time showed no trace of impatience on their faces.

They all seemed to be sitting quietly, but in fact, judging by how hard they were holding their handkerchiefs, you could tell that they were not at peace inside.

The prince rested in the main room every night, doting on the princess alone.

The princess will get up late, I guess last night was another night of fun.

They are also the prince's women, and they also want to be loved by the prince, but the princess is too resourceful. How can they break this deadlock?

How can I get the prince's favor from the princess?

Just as the three of them were making their own calculations, Jiang Changning came in and said slightly apologetically: "I got up a little late today, so I kept you waiting for a long time."

"We came too early and disturbed the princess' peace." Mrs. Pu said with a smile.

Mrs. Liu said: "The princess is so busy every day. She is really tired. I am useless and cannot share the worries of the princess. I feel deeply guilty."

Mrs. Pu and Chen Yi were slightly stunned, and Jiang Changning smiled slightly, "This is the palace of Prince Jin. I am Princess Jin. The prince gave me the backyard. It is just and legitimate. What does Aunt Liu have to feel guilty about?"

The expressions of the three people changed slightly. They didn't expect Jiang Changning to be so straightforward.

"I think I'm not a harsh person, but I can't tolerate people who don't have rules." Jiang Changning looked at the three of them with a serious expression, "If you break the rules, don't blame me for being unkind."

"I will abide by the rules of the house and will never make any mistakes." The three of them stood up and said with fear and fear.

"It seems that you all understand, so I don't need to say anything more, so you can take care of yourself." Jiang Changning's face softened slightly.

After Jiang Changning had a simple breakfast, he went to pay his respects to the concubine.

After the three concubines left Rujingyuan for some distance, Pu said to Liu, "Are you crazy? You said that."

Mrs. Liu snorted coldly, "If you continue like this, you will go crazy sooner or later."

"She is the princess and the royal wife. If you fight her hard, you will be the one who suffers." Chen Yi said softly.

"It's already like this, what else can she do to me?" Mrs. Liu looked indifferent.

"Have you forgotten that Zhou was driven to Zhuangzi?" Pu asked.

"Ms. Zhou broke something, and she used it to show her authority and drove her to Zhuangzi. I didn't break anything, so why did she drive me away?"

"If you don't respect your mistress, she will kill you with a stick." Chen Yi said coldly.

Mrs. Liu's expression changed, "The prince is confused by her, but the concubine will not allow her to do this."

Chen Yi sneered, "Why should the concubine support you?"

She and Mrs. Pu have the status of wives, and they are registered in the official documents. Jiang Changning has some scruples about how to deal with them.

Mrs. Liu was just an aunt who couldn't stand up to the public. Jiang Changning would crush her to death as easily as crushing an ant to death.

"Are we just going to waste our time in the house like this, living a life without favor, no children and no one to rely on?" Liu asked unwillingly.

Mrs. Pu pursed her lips and said nothing, Chen Yi's eyes flashed slightly, "Do you have any good ideas?"

"I..." Mrs. Liu was discouraged. She really didn't have any good ideas.

Women who can be attracted by men may be beautiful, charming, or enchanting, but she doesn't have any of them.

The three of them returned to the courtyard in silence and sat down in the room. Chen Yi's confidant maid poured a cup of tea and handed it to her, saying: "Aunt Liu's words are somewhat reasonable. Madam still has to make some plans for herself.

.”

Chen Yi smiled and took a sip of tea, "No hurry, why are you so anxious?"

"Madam, it has been almost ten months since you entered the mansion." The confidant maid reminded her.

"I know how long it has been since I entered the mansion. Some things cannot be rushed. The time has not yet come." Chen Yi put down the teacup and pressed the handkerchief to the corner of his mouth. "Go and get the Baizi embroidered screen."

"Yes, ma'am." Seeing that she looked confident, the confidant maid could no longer persuade her.

Jiang Changning, who was paying his respects to the concubine, was talking to the concubine about the Lantern Festival.

Xiayuan Festival is also called Xiayuan Day. Taoists believe that there are three great gods who manage heaven, earth and water in the world.

The officials of heaven grant blessings, the officials of earth pardon sins, and the officials of water relieve misfortunes.

During the Xiayuan Festival to worship Shuiguan, sutras should be chanted in the Taoist temple.

"Giving cold clothes on the first day of the Lunar New Year has made the house smoky and smoky. You have worked hard too. This time, don't set up the dojo in the house. Go to the temple." The concubine said.

"Thank you for your understanding. Concubine, do you think we should go to the Chenghuang Temple or Youmin Temple?"

"Youmin Temple is outside the city. Kangren is a girl. It's inconvenient to go out of the city, so just stay at the Chenghuang Temple. That's all."

"What the mother-in-law said is that I will have someone take care of it soon."

After finishing the matter, Jiang Changning returned to Rujingyuan.

As soon as they entered the courtyard, Shu Fei came over and said, "Princess, Mrs. Zhuang and Mrs. Zhuang are here."

Jiang Changning was stunned, why are these two here?

During the holidays, Jiang Changning ordered people to send gifts to the banker, but other than that, he had no other interactions with him.

Jiang Changning couldn't guess why these two people were visiting.

But guessing is also necessary. When you see someone, you can tell them by asking.

"Tell Chun Lai to pay a thousand taels of silver to the Chenghuang Temple and set up a three-day disaster relief dojo." Jiang Changning asked Xiulan to get the sign and make arrangements in advance before going to the front to meet the guests.

Jiang Changning walked into the hall, and Mrs. Zhuang stood up, "I have met the princess, and I want to pay my respects to the princess."

"Old lady, please stop doing this." Jiang Changning did not accept her courtesy and supported her.

The smile on Mrs. Zhuang's face deepened a little, and Ning Yatou still meant her affection.

The guests of honor sat down, and the maid brought tea.

"The old lady and the eldest lady are here today, what's the matter?" Jiang Changning asked straight to the point.

"Princess, when it comes to this matter, Zhou Duxin said that boy went too far." Wu said angrily.

Hearing this, Jiang Changning knew that they were here for the bet between Zhou Duxin and Zhuang Jike.

Wu was nagging Zhou Duxin, blaming Zhou Duxin entirely for the bet between the two, and felt that he deliberately framed Zhuang Jike.

"Zico made a mistake this time and did not do well in the exam. He spread the word everywhere. How can Zico participate in next year's Spring Exam?"

"I already know about the bet. I told the Zhou family not to tell anyone about it. I don't think the Zhou family dared to violate it in front of me, so this matter must not have been spread among the Zhou family. The old lady still asked people to investigate.

Let’s check it out, don’t let others mislead us and damage the relationship between the two families.”

Jiang Changning firmly endorsed the Zhou family to prevent the banker from causing trouble to the Zhou family.

"What the princess said is that I will ask someone to check it carefully." Old Mrs. Zhuang said with a smile.

When Mrs. Zhuang returned to the Jin Palace for the first time, Jiang Changning stayed with her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law for lunch.

When she saw the concubine, Mrs. Zhuang said: "The concubine is so polite. We came here rashly. The concubine didn't blame us for being rude and even reserved a meal. I'm really sorry for disturbing you."

"There is no need to tell false stories between relatives. You should come and go frequently." The concubine said politely.

But Wu said: "When the princess was a girl, she was not as capable as she is now. The concubine was still the one who could train people.'"

These words complimented the concubine, but belittled Jiang Changning.
