She was probably the one who had married two wives. Recently, Morong Gan always ran to the backyard to drink tea and chat, and occasionally stayed for a meal. He could be considered fair before, but after going to the Fallen Star Pavilion once, he had to go to the Jade Lotus Pavilion once. It was just that the beautiful scene that Xiu Yuanshuang and Gu Qingdie wished for never ended. He never stayed in a yard again.
He would always go to the Fallen Star Pavilion during his afternoon nap and stand in the courtyard like he would look to the east and west, telling Xiu Yuanshuang what kind of plants she should plant and how she should place them in the courtyard. Thinking that he liked it, Xiu Yuanshuang instructed her servants to follow his instructions, digging a ditch, cutting open a flower bed and getting some flower seeds, but Morong Gan seemed to be interested in them and did not let anyone else do it.
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the man was impeccable, that he sometimes moved closer to her, and that the concentration and depth of his features made her stare. Although he was somewhat cold and dignified, he was still quite gentle to her, and his tone was also quite calm. Where could he find such a famous husband?
A chicken slowly walked in. When Qiu Wen saw that it was Little Yellow, she immediately chased it away. "Get out, get out!" It scared Little Yellow flying away.
Morong Gan squatted on the ground and looked at it coldly, "It can speak human language?"
Qiu Wen's face reddened, and she did not dare make a sound. Little Yellow, seeing that Morong Gan was no longer a threat, came back and walked to her side and pecked at his leg a few times. Morong Gan did not care, he just let it go.
The servant flipped through the soil and found a few earthworms. Morong Gan brought them in front of Little Yellow to eat. When Little Yellow lowered its head to peck at them, watched quietly with a calm expression.
Xiu Yuanshuang could not help but ask, "Does the Prince like it?"
Morong Gan said blandly, "I can't really say I like it. There are bugs everywhere, so don't waste it."
Xiu Yuanshuang said, "This chicken is really obedient, the princess has taught it well. I've been here a few times, but I've never seen it messing around. "
Morong Gan snorted, "What will she teach?"
Xiu Yuanshuang probed, "Why don't you call the wangfei over to join the liveliness."
Morong Gan did not say anything, he buried his head in the work he was doing. When he was done, he sat on the tree trunk, while Little Yellow ran to his feet and laid down on the ground. He casually stroked its feathers, with his eyes lowered, he did not know what his mood was, and after a while he said, "Don't get too close to her, she will go out sooner or later."
Xiu Yuanshuang was overjoyed, "Is it because of the Prime Minister Bai that Your Highness doesn't like my wife?"
Morong Gan raised his head, his eyes filled with frost. His heart tightened, and he didn't dare say another word.
Gu Qingdie had a good relationship with Xiu Yuanshuang, but since Morong Gan often went to the Fallen Star Pavilion, she didn't come to her Jade Lotus Pavilion. She felt a little uncomfortable, but after thinking about it, the Prince probably treated Xiu Yuanshuang as her original wife, so their relationship was deeper, her skin was thick, and if the Prince wasn't going, she would come to the Fallen Star Pavilion to eat and drink, staying until Morong Gan left.
Since young miss Bai Family wants to leave, the position of Crown Princess will sooner or later be mine. It is also understandable that the Prince will be closer to me, furthermore, she is the one who is in charge of the matters in the Inner Palace right now, so this matter is already a foregone conclusion.
When she was first in charge, she was still a bit modest. After seeing the servants being respectful to her, she found out that there was a sense of being the mistress, and slowly, she put on airs. She was not as casual towards Gu Qingdie as before, her words and actions always seemed to be superior to others. Gu Qingdie became even more angry, but the smile on her face only became sweeter. She called her elder sister from the left and elder sister from the right affectionately.
In order to pull away from her, Xiu Yuanshuang had fixed her relationship with her. She would often give her something to eat or give her a small gift.
Although Morong Gan told her not to get too close to Bai Qianfan, she felt that this was a matter of killing two birds with one stone. She wasn't worried about anything, no matter how good they used to be, it would be impossible from now on.
Her wariness towards Bai Qianfan slowly decreased a little. After interacting with him for a while, she realised that Bai Qianfan was actually a very pure person, and did not seem like someone who had plans. The misconception about her from before was slowly dispelled, so she was even more unwilling to interact with Gu Qingdie.
Gu Qingdie was a sensitive person, she could clearly see Xiu Yuanshuang's plan. What should she do? Now she was alone and unwelcome. Her Highness had come to her place less and less, and she would occasionally come together with Xiu Yuanshuang, as if they were a couple. She was the one who was unnecessary, so if this went on, would her Lateral Princess still have any hope?
She thought long and hard, and since Xiu Yuanshuang did not like her, she had her own plans for Bai Qianfan. was easy to fool, she had prepared many little toys for him. Every few days, if Bai Qianfan wanted to send some over, she would accompany him there, but if she wanted to go to Fallen Star Pavilion, she would accompany him there. Xiu Yuanshuang did it in front of Bai Qianfan, and it would not be good to embarrass him, thus this kind of strange situation had formed.
Bai Qianfan knew in her heart that she had to follow her even if she had to take other people's things because they were too weak.
When Xiu Yuanshuang saw her, she naturally welcomed her with a smile, but when she saw Gu Qingdie, his smile dimmed a little. The three of them sat down to drink tea, and not long later, Morong Gan actually arrived.
Seeing them drinking tea, Morong Gan smiled and asked Xiu Yuanshuang, "Did you get any good tea leaves?"
"Yes, I was just about to invite Your Highness here for tea," Xiu Yuanshuang said with a dignified smile. "My mother sent someone over this morning, saying that Yun Wei's tea was good for the body."
Just as they were talking, the servant girl served them some tea. Morong Gan took a sip, frowned, then relaxed his body, "The tea is bitter compared to the tea in the Central Plains, but the aftertaste is satisfying. There are many Yun Wai people here, and they like to drink this tea, saying that it is good for their health."
Gu Qingdie laughed: "Your Highness sure knows a lot."
Morong Gan said: "This king has been there before. The land lords are few in number and have many forests, the people there are experts in poison, Gu planting and witchcraft, but the scenery is very beautiful."
Xiu Yuanshuang's face revealed fear, "I heard that barbarians are very strange."
However, Gu Qingdie said, "I heard that the barbarian girl was born very beautiful."
Morong Gan did not look at Bai Qianfan, but she had been around the entire time. She was holding onto her tea, looking calm and collected, as if she was thinking about something.
Suddenly, she put down the teacup, stood up and said, "I remember that I still have some embroidery work to finish. I'll go back first." After she finished speaking, she left without even bowing to Morong Gan. In fact, the moment Morong Gan entered, her eyes had always been empty, and she had always been absent-minded when she saluted.
Morong Gan was enraged, he slapped the table and stood up, "Stop!"
