Main Text Chapter 2074 Stay Calm in the Face of Adversity
The umbrellas that were tilted here and there were quickly put away, and the chaos in the garden disappeared immediately.
These women! Murong Xinghua muttered in his heart, feeling angry and amused. He hurried to Miao Yi's side, and was relieved. He finally came, otherwise, according to Princess Zun's intention, something might happen.
Miao Yi was not blind, and he saw the chaos just now. Is this the so-called lady? The lazy look of tilting here and there, outsiders who didn't know it would think that he was running a brothel here, how can it be!
Especially the pretentious situation of turning into a lady in an instant, which made Miao Yi's face darker, his eyes became deeper, and he felt a little disgusted with these women in his heart.
He didn't have the mind to distinguish which people were always virtuous. In short, the first time he met with everyone collectively, he had a bad impression. Moreover, Yang Zhaoqing had hinted and reminded him before, asking him to come over to support Feihong if necessary. He realized something about these women at that time, and now it was equivalent to letting him confirm his guess.
Many women noticed the change in Miao Yi's expression, and secretly complained in their hearts that no one had informed them in advance that the prince was coming. They cursed Yun Zhiqiu for being too vicious and deliberately making them look bad in front of the prince.
Some women didn't care. They were disgusted by their families doing this, and they didn't care whether they could please Miao Yi or not.
Yang Zhaoqing, who came with them, took in everyone's reactions and sighed. Three women are a drama. Such a group of women, plus they come from powerful families and grow up in an environment that they have seen and heard, the harem competition mode is probably inevitable. He just hopes that these women can be sensible and don't mess with Yun Zhiqiu. Yun Zhiqiu actually holds a lot of power on the prince's side that outsiders don't know about. Some of his roles are irreplaceable. He has an impact on the prince in all aspects. He is also the only person who can make the prince submissive. Not everyone can replace him. I hope these women don't make trouble for themselves.
Murong Xinghua stepped forward to salute, Miao Yi asked calmly: "Where is the princess?"
Murong Xinghua said: "Waiting for the prince in the main hall of the inner house!"
Miao Yi did not greet the concubines, turned around and walked straight to the inner house.
The women who were ready to greet the prince when he came were speechless, and then looked at the sun in the sky. No one dared to be lazy at this time, or they didn't know when the prince would show up again.
Walking outside the main hall, he heard Yun Zhiqiu talking and laughing, and he seemed to be in a good mood. Miao Yi also walked in with a smile on his face.
As soon as he arrived, everyone stood up and saluted, "Prince!"
Gong Nishang and Yuwen Ruyu were obviously a little afraid, but the smile on Yun Zhiqiu's face disappeared, and she stood up and half-knelt to salute, "I have seen the prince!"
Looking at her reaction, Miao Yi felt a little uneasy, and laughed dryly: "No need to be polite."
"The sisters outside have been waiting for a long time. Since the prince is here, let's go and see it together." Yun Zhiqiu said expressionlessly.
Miao Yi chuckled, "As for your women's affairs, I will..." But when he saw Yun Zhiqiu's eyes looking at him wrong, he coughed and changed his words, "Okay, let's go join in the fun."
A group of people left the main hall, left the inner house, and headed straight for the big garden.
The prince appeared again, and the charming and dignified woman beside him, some had seen it before, some had not, but they all guessed that there should be no one else who could come with the prince except Princess Yun Zhiqiu.
"Prince, Princess."
Formally facing each other at close range, the female relatives saluted one after another.
Yun Zhiqiu smiled and exchanged a little with each other, and Miao Yi forced a smile and nodded slightly.
"Prince." A charming voice sounded beside him. Yun Zhiqiu glanced at her and found that she was also charming. The look she gave Miao Yi was also shy and charming, very tempting.
Miao Yi couldn't help but look up and down a few more times. She was beautiful, there was no way, he would be attracted to look at her a few more times subconsciously.
Yun Zhiqiu's smiling voice sounded, "This sister is so beautiful, may I know her name?"
The woman said in a delicate voice: "My name is Du Yinjiao."
"..." Yun Zhiqiu was stunned for a moment, and remembered the name she had seen on the list. She was deeply impressed by this name. Why was she impressed? Because this woman was the type who divorced her husband quickly before marrying here, and she had already given birth to a daughter before marrying here. After coming to her senses, she nodded again and again: "What a good name, it really lives up to the name." After saying that, she squinted at Miao Yi, guessing that Miao Yi didn't know the details of this woman.
In the small world, she was paying attention to this side, paying attention to what would happen between Miao Yi and these women. As a result, Miao Yi's performance satisfied her, and she had never formally met these women.
Little did she know that Miao Yi was also worried about being jealous, so how could he dare to mess around? How could he not know that Yun Zhiqiu had eyes and ears here, so there was no need to seek excitement.
Most of the women who could take the initiative to come forward were naturally confident and of extraordinary appearance. The further you go, the more obvious the division of beauty levels becomes. It's okay for those who are mediocre, but there are actually many who are ugly.
Beauty and ugliness are innate, and for many people, there is no choice. For some surrendered generals who want to marry their daughters, there is nothing they can do. Their bloodline is poor, and the daughters they give birth to inherit the inheritance. There are no good-looking daughters below. Anyway, everyone knows the purpose of the marriage, and both parties can make do with it. As long as they can use the name of the prince's relatives to protect the family through the crisis, they don't expect to win favor. Of course, maybe the prince is attracted by the inner qualities or special appetites.
Yun Zhiqiu also met this group of women for the first time. You don't know until you meet them. Once you meet, you are a little shocked.
She had previously thought that the one who could marry her daughter must have been carefully selected from the family, and her appearance would definitely not be bad, but she underestimated her bloodline. Not everyone can give birth to a beautiful daughter. In her early years, the ones who were willing to show up at various gatherings were actually quite pretty. How many of those who were not good-looking would be willing to show off their beauty? When the subordinates reported the situation to her, they would not be too bored to comment on the appearance of the prince's concubines, which was why Yun Zhiqiu was shocked after meeting them.
Yun Zhiqiu could only imagine what it was like for those surrendered generals to send their daughters to the prince's mansion for marriage.
Yun Zhiqiu had seen what it meant to have different heights, weights and skins. Some of them were indeed a little too fat. It was estimated that Miao Yi was the first one in the world to take a concubine like this at the level of the king. When other princes took concubines, who would dare to send them to the prince's mansion without a stunning beauty?
This was also the first time that Miao Yi formally met his concubines. After seeing them, Miao Yi couldn't even force out a smile on his face. In short, he became very calm and unperturbed!
After walking around in the crowd for a while, Yun Zhiqiu said to Miao Yi under the attention of everyone: "Prince, there were few sisters in the family before. If there was anything, I could communicate with the sisters individually and discuss it one by one. Now there are so many sisters, I'm afraid it won't work. There should be a rule. What do you think, Prince?"
Miao Yi said calmly: "The rules of the inner house are decided by the princess, and you decide it, Princess!"
In front of everyone, Yun Zhiqiu wanted to say this. This guy was sensible, so he immediately bowed and said: "I obey your command."
After a short lingering, the two said goodbye to the women and were about to leave when someone suddenly shouted loudly, "Prince!"
A strong body blocked the way. Miao Yi stared at the concubine in a daze. If he didn't see the person, he would think it was a man who was talking.
The concubine in front of him was really strong and big, bigger than Miao Yi, or much bigger, half a head taller than Miao Yi, eyes as big as copper bells, nostrils pointing upwards, wide jaw, very distinctive, with willow-leaf eyebrows, wearing a light and elegant white gauze long dress, and very plump chest, which made people feel oppressive.
Miao Yi quickly glanced at Yang Zhaoqing, and saw that Yang Zhaoqing did not react at all, so he realized that it should be his concubine, but why didn't he see her just now, where did she hide just now, where did she come from? Anyway, she suddenly appeared, which really made Miao Yi feel "amazed".
Yun Zhiqiu tilted his head to look at Miao Yi who seemed to be swallowing his saliva, and then asked the big guy: "May I know your name, sister?"
"Nie Wuyan!" The visitor reported loudly, staring at Miao Yi and asked: "May I ask, Your Majesty, what is the purpose of putting us under house arrest here?"
Miao Yi said calmly: "Why is there house arrest?"
Nie Wuyan waved her hand in the direction of the palace, and loudly rebuked: "There are countless courtyards in the palace, why can some concubines go there, and some concubines can't go there, do you dislike our appearance?"
Other concubines did not agree with the saying that they were not good-looking, but they have been wondering why they were not allowed to live in the palace, but squeezed here.
How could such a rebuke be difficult for Miao Yi? People who have experienced many storms can handle it with ease, "You think too much, this king has received a secret report that there may be spies among you. The palace is a key place, how can spies be allowed to mix in? We are checking one by one. Those who are not problematic will naturally be moved into the palace for resettlement. Do you think there is a problem?"
Nie Wuyan was speechless, nodded to show that she understood, retreated into the crowd and disappeared again.
After leaving the villa and returning to the palace, Yun Zhiqiu naturally looked around the new home. Miao Yi's calmness remained unchanged after seeing the group of concubines.
Arriving at the main house of the inner house, Yun Zhiqiu, looking at the furnishings in the house, suddenly said indifferently, "The prince's concubine is indeed extraordinary, what a big appetite!"
Miao Yi's expression finally twitched violently.
"Hehe..." Yun Zhiqiu had been holding back all the way, but now that there were no outsiders, she finally couldn't hold it back anymore, laughing forward and backward, thinking of Nie Wuyan who blocked the way, and Miao Yi's dumbfounded swallowing of saliva, she held the coffee table and almost laughed to tears.
She looked around and estimated that among more than a thousand people, there were only a few who could be considered stunning, and those with superior looks accounted for about 20%, and most of the rest were mediocre, and a small number of them were indeed indecent, Nie Wuyan was one of them.
Miao Yi looked at her coldly, "Sister Qiu, why do you judge people by appearance? Qingzhu is the Emperor of Heaven, do you dislike the Queen of Heaven's appearance?"
"I was wrong, I was wrong." Yun Zhiqiu laughed breathlessly and waved her hands.
After waiting for her emotions to stabilize, Miao Yi said expressionlessly: "What did Su Yun say?"
He really couldn't be happy. Beauty and ugliness are human nature. He can only swallow the bitter wine he brewed. He can't divorce her just because she is not beautiful. He can only keep her and stay together forever. (~^~)
