Chapter 8 The Banquet at the Yue Palace
On the high platform, a middle-aged lady is sitting on a lacquered stool, and behind her is a young hair comber who is putting the last water-red peonies on her high bun.

A nanny stood by her side with her hands down, with a respectful expression, "I have followed your instructions, wangfei, and the third lady has sent someone to settle it."

The third wife they talked about was none other than Jun Jin Yuan who married into the palace yesterday.

Princess Yue did not look back, she just looked at the bronze mirror and stroked the petals of the peony. "Have you seen that child?" she asked.

"Are you talking about the third lady?" Aunt Cui leaned over and said, "She looks upright, and her bearing is naturally better than that of a girl from a small family. That's right."

"What is it?"

"It's just that she is too stubborn and not very soft-hearted. She is afraid that if she goes out, she will offend some family member and cause trouble for the third young master."

Princess Yue smiled: "All the children I gave birth to are like this, their hearts are as high as the sky."

Nanny Cui has been with the princess for decades, so she naturally heard the implication, and hurriedly approached, "You are a mother-in-law, so it is only natural to bring up some brides? Why don't you take advantage of this opportunity."

Before she could finish speaking, Princess Yue interrupted slowly, "Why should I be serious with a junior? Let the children have fun on their own."

Nanny Cui understood, and hurriedly cupped her hands and said, "The princess is magnanimous."

"Princess, Master Zhuo and the county master have arrived." Someone announced outside the door.

Concubine Yue raised her hand slightly, and the man stepped back. She got up and stood in front of the huge window sill.Looking down from above, one can see figures in thick purple skirts getting on and off a Xi cart in the back garden, bright and luxurious.

She supported Fu Zhuo's arm beside her and walked slowly towards the courtyard.

"It's a pity, he is a good man." Princess Yue looked down at the two of them and sighed, "If it weren't for the fact that her destiny was too tough and her horoscopes were too strong, and she even defeated three husbands, marrying Bingqing would not be a bad idea."

The combing lady who had been silent for a while suddenly spoke, her voice still full of youthful curiosity, "Then why did you give the county master to Master Zhuo?"

Princess Yue didn't speak, just smiled faintly, but her eyes turned extremely cold in an instant.

Mother Cui was startled, she even rushed up and slapped the hair-comb lady twice, and shouted: "You poor maidservant is too talkative!"

"okay."

Princess Yue stopped Mother Cui's next slap. She left the window sill, glanced at the hair-combing girl who was knocked to the ground, and said slowly: "After combing your hair, it's time to leave."

After speaking, he went downstairs.

At this time, Jin Changying had already entered the main hall under the leadership of the servant.She looked around and saw no sign of Mr. Jin Yuan. She asked a few maids to ask, but they all said that the third lady was still in the room and wanted to wait for the third young master to come out to meet the guests.

"Okay, newlyweds, if you have a man, forget your sister."

Jin Changying suddenly felt bored, so he had to find a secluded place separated by a screen, and while eating the small cakes on the plate, he looked at the direction where Jin Yuanjun might come out later.

"What are you looking for with the third sibling?" Fu Zhuo sat beside her and asked puzzled.

Fu Zhuo was sitting outside. He was wearing a blue silk robe, his back was straight, and he was sitting on the desk with one hand, a typical sitting posture for a military attache.Coupled with the cold and clear face, it really made several other daughters look at her.

Jin Changying naturally noticed this.

For some reason, she suddenly felt that her vanity was somewhat satisfied. She didn't pay attention to it before, but now when she looked at Fu Zhuo, she suddenly felt much more pleasing to the eye.

Seeing the curious look on his usually indifferent face, she thought of teasing her, and leaned into his ear and asked, "Do you want to hear the truth or lie?"

Fu Zhuo didn't notice him: "Of course it's the truth."

Jin Changying was about to speak when he saw a woman in yellow appearing at the exit out of the corner of his eye.

The woman has a beautiful face, and the ornaments on her head and ears are in the shape of plum blossoms.Based on the description of her appearance in the novel, Jin Changying immediately recognized her as the female partner who was going to target Jin Yuanjun tonight.

Fu Zhuo followed her gaze and saw that she was about to get up, he hurriedly held her down and asked, "What are you looking for with Yunfang?"

He didn't mention Jin Changying, and he almost didn't realize that this woman in yellow was the only prostitute of the Yue Palace, Miss Fu Fu Yunfang.

"I suspect that your sister wants to tease my sister, please get out of the way first." Seeing that the yellow figure was about to disappear, she was a little anxious.

Fu Zhuo was stunned: "You mean Yunfang? She has no grievances with Miss Jin Si, why do you say that?"

"believe it or not."

She wanted to throw away her hand, but found that Fu Zhuo had pressed her wrist on the table and couldn't get away, so she blurted out.

"I said yes, do you dare to bet?"

Hearing what she said, Fu Zhuo was naturally not happy. He is the adopted son of Prince Yue, and Fu Yunfang is his sister.But when the words came to his mouth, he said: "I don't have anything on my lower body, so I don't know what the county chief is betting on?"

"Then bet." Jin Changying thought about the store he wanted and Fu Yao's savings, and said firmly: "Bet 100 taels of silver! If I lose, I will give you 100 taels!"

Unexpectedly, upon hearing this, Fu Zhuo let go of the restraint, and looked at her with suddenly enlightened eyes.

Jin Changying rubbed her wrist, a little confused.

"The county chief uses it, and the slips from the counter shop are in the room, just take it." Fu Zhuo said very frankly.

His speaking attitude was obviously much softer than when they first met.For some reason, Jin Changying thought of Su Yi who was left at home by her, and suddenly realized the way.

In fact, if you want to speed up the heroine's leveling up, it's not just to help her hug her thighs, but also to bring the villains in the novel to your side. With the heroine's less obstacles, isn't it also speeding up the progress of the task in disguise?

[So host, do you choose to accompany the villain here to gain favor, or go in and help the heroine? 】

The system that noticed her thoughts came out at the right time.

help?Of course it helps!I realized that everything is a process except the result.As long as I send the heroine to the position, nothing else matters, so of course the sooner the better.

【All right.Then don't forget to maintain an arrogant and domineering personality in front of the heroine. 】

I know, I know.Jin Changying replied impatiently in his mind.

"What are you talking about?" Seeing her shaking her head, Fu Zhuo suddenly asked.

"It's nothing." She patted his hand with a warm smile, "I am very pleased with your initiative to pay the money, but I still have something to do with my fourth sister, so you can do it first."

It's a pity that before she could finish speaking, she was greeted by the well-dressed Princess Yue.

"No one greeted the county lord when he arrived. It's because I was negligent." Princess Yue said with a smile.

Concubine Yue is a pampered woman. Even though she is old, she can still see the grace that a noble lady of a wealthy family should have. Even the greetings with Jin Changying are a little tired after enjoying all the glory.

"Your foster mother, please be safe." Fu Zhuo hurriedly bowed his hands in salute.

"What did the princess say, Fu Zhuo is taking me with me, so what can I trouble you for?" Jin Changying also quickly put on a smiling face, "Besides, I am a junior now, so I have to call you mother-in-law for reason."

The concubine ignored Fu Zhuo, but returned to Jin Changying, "Don't you dare, how dare you, the county magistrate's status is extraordinary, so you should just call him as usual, don't stick to these customary etiquette."

She still maintained a warm smile, but inadvertently glanced at Fu Zhuo aside, her expression unable to conceal her surprise.

She said that Jin Changying's status was not false. Except for her father, who was a general, few people knew that her mother was the niece of the Empress Dowager.Because he was living abroad in the early years, in order to make up for this cousin and to thank General Jin, the Holy One made an exception and gave his cousin the status of Jin Changying County Lord on the grounds of military merit.
