Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Originally, the madams thought that Shen Miao was from Ming Qi after all. Ming Qi and the Daliang Dynasty were two different countries, and many customs were different. Shen Miao was the daughter of a general, so it was even more impossible for her to have any wisdom. Unexpectedly, after interacting with her, they changed their opinion about Shen Miao drastically. Not only did Shen Miao speak appropriately, but she also seemed to know a lot of things that they did not know.
From fashion, politics, to history, Shen Miao knew more than what someone her age was supposed to know.
Although her previous life in Ming Qi’s harem was miserable, it still broadened her horizons. She heard many interesting anecdotes from envoys from all around the world. Shen Miao might not be able to do what Xie Jingxing could do, but she was good at persuading people to achieve her goal without losing anything.
In just a few days, those noble madams were all on good terms with Shen Miao. When they were stumped by something, they would start to ask Shen Miao for advice. Firstly, Shen Miao was Princess Consort Rui and was related to the royal family, so she must know the current attitude of the royal family more than them. Secondly, although Shen Miao was young and was even a few years younger than the daughters of some madams, she had a dignified aura that made people feel that what she said was trustworthy.
Shen Miao and Xie Jingxing were both working hard for the upcoming storm in Long Ye. Naturally, the Lu family and the Ye family wouldn’t just sit back and do nothing.
The Lu family had lost a daughter. Seeing that Emperor Yong Le’s attitude was getting worse and worse, they finally started to panic and started to mobilize the army they had distributed everywhere.
The Ye family had always taken a neutral stance. Now, they suddenly realized that they were forced to make a choice. It was as if they had unknowingly been dragged into the mess by the Lu family.
Shen Miao asked MO Qing to keep an eye on Ye Mei’s every move. Over the past few days, because of the trouble Ye Mei caused in Long Ye Palace, Ye Maocai had been very angry. What Ye Mei did offended Emperor Yong Le and the Lu family at the same time. The Lu family was fine. Although Lu Zhengchun was arrogant and unrestrained, he was brainless. However, Emperor Yong Le was different. The young emperor already had ruthless methods. It was precisely because he did not blame Ye Mei that Ye Maocai was even more uneasy, feeling that Emperor Yong Le seemed to be planning something.
Ye Maocai took his anger out on Ye Mei, so he grounded her for many days and was quite cold to her. Ye Mei had been very aggrieved these days, and today, she was finally released. In order to compensate her, Madam Ye brought her to her jewelry shop to choose some jewelry. Unexpectedly, a noble madam suddenly dropped in on the Ye family so Madam Ye had no choice but to go back to entertain her. She asked Ye Mei to go and choose some jewelry for herself.
The shopkeeper of the jewelry shop looked like he was trying to please Ye Mei. He took out the most expensive things for Ye Mei to choose. Ye Mei looked listless and absent-minded, making the shopkeeper angry.
She was just a daughter of a merchant. Now that she was acknowledged by the Ye family, she should consider herself very lucky. However, she was still picky and even disdained these expensive jewelry.. Did she think she was a princess?
