Chapter 537: I’m back at the Star-Picking Tower
On the other side, Beichen Palace
Mingxuan, who was envied by Ji Ruxue, was very distressed.
Did he think it was a sedan chair carried by eight people?
It’s a gift for nothing!
What did he think was a wedding?
No!
He thought it was a new house?
nor!
He thought it was his wedding night!
Daydreaming!
Princess Mingxuan sat in the room all night in her bright red wedding dress, and even after the red candles burned out, she still didn't see the prince.
How ironic is it that the new concubine is not favored on the first day she enters the house and has to stay alone in an empty room?
Mingxuan could foresee how the people in the palace would laugh at him behind his back, laugh at him for not being favored by the prince, and laugh at him for being so shameless in throwing himself at the prince.
Thinking of this, Lady Mingxuan, who had not slept much the whole night, looked even uglier, and even the makeup could not hide the haggardness on her face.
"Lord, it's time to pay respects to the prince and the king."
The one who spoke was an elderly servant, known as Qin Shi Huang, who was left to him by his adoptive father, who was afraid that he would be bullied in the palace.
In addition to the zither attendant, there were four palace attendants and some guards. However, the rules of the palace did not allow soldiers to be brought into the palace, so they had to be asked to go back.
After the palace servant helped Mingxuan wash and dress, he took people to the main courtyard.
However, the road to the main courtyard was extremely long and winding, and it felt like I had to go around half of the palace before I got there.
Everyone in the group was tired.
Isn’t this main courtyard too far away?
The place where the concubine lives is so big, but I thought it was very close to the main courtyard.
After all, such a large yard doesn't look like it is used for entertaining guests. Even if it is not for hospitalization, it should be close to the main courtyard.
What about the facts?
The reality is far from that!
What Mingxuan and others didn't know was that the Zhaixing Tower where they lived was the courtyard farthest from the main courtyard.
The yard is very large, but unfortunately it was once abandoned.
When Yan Chen first moved in, he thought, like them, that this was a large courtyard very close to the main courtyard. Although it was a little dilapidated, it was close to the main courtyard after all.
However, dreams are beautiful, but reality is very depressing. Since Yan Chen left, no one has disturbed this yard. At the beginning, it was just hastily cleaned up to make it habitable.
Now that Mingxuan and others have been sent to such a far place, cleaning alone is a huge project, not to mention that many things need to be repaired, otherwise it will be uninhabitable.
what? !
No need for repairs?
How could Princess Mingxuan, the adopted son of the Queen Mother, who are so noble and valuable, live in such a shabby place!
what?
Want to change the yard?
Sorry, there are no rooms available. We can't ask you to stay in a guest room.
How disrespectful it is to let the host live in the guest room!
Besides, even the prince doesn’t live in such a big courtyard, what are you picky about?
Giving you such a big yard is a bargain, so don't be picky.
what? !
Do you still want to use the money from the mansion to repair the Zhaixing Tower?
Financial housekeeper Mo Yan sneered: Bah! Dreaming! There is everything in dreams.
The Zhaixing Tower is of no use if left alone, so why should we spend money to repair it?
No one's money comes from the wind. You are a newcomer who just moved into the mansion. You haven't even been given free food and accommodation, but you want to get something for nothing?
Go dream!
The stingy Mo Yan said: There are a lot of rules, but no money!
Everyone knew that the prince did not like the new concubine. In their minds, the new concubine was not a real master at all.
After all, the two of them haven't even consummated their marriage yet, so what kind of master is he? !
The master's attitude also determines the behavior of his servants, and those who change with the wind are common.
Who wouldn’t want to curry favor with a favored master?
Although a person who has fallen out of favor may have a chance to turn things around, the chances are very low.
What's more, you have been hated by your master from the very beginning, so how can you turn things around?
Everyone knows that the prince’s favorite is the prince, so what if a concubine enters the palace? Won’t she still be unfavored?
Many people in the mansion looked down on this concubine, but Mingxuan, who had just entered the mansion, obviously didn't know it.
Maybe he knows, but now is not the time to settle the score.
