Chapter 186
"Miss Lu Si, please sit down." Ye Shuhuang made a "please" gesture.

Lu Fangyin nodded respectfully, and then sat down: "Thank you, Your Highness."

Ye Shuhuang took a sip of tea, then looked at Lu Fangyin, and said lightly: "I haven't congratulated Miss Lu Er in the house, but I heard that Miss Lu Er is engaged."

The second sister's engagement with Zhao's eldest son has not been announced to the outside world except for the Zhao family and Pingyanghou's mansion. How could Princess Changle know.

So Lu Fangyin asked in surprise, "How do you know, Your Highness?"

Ye Shuhuang smiled but said nothing.

Originally, she had no time to pay attention to Lu Fangyue who had offended her.

But coincidentally, the household servant Zhao's family, who was engaged to Lu Fangyue, had recently attracted her attention.

Zhao's family came from a poor family, not considered prominent in the capital. In terms of family status alone, being able to marry a daughter from the Hou's Mansion is indeed a high achievement, because the ancestors have accumulated great virtues.

In the past, even if the Pingyang Marquis Mansion fell and lost its former glory, the dignified Marquis Mansion's concubine would look down on a child from a poor family no matter what.

However, Lu Fangyue picked up a stone and hit her own foot, ruining her own reputation.

A few months ago, the girl from Pingyang Hou's mansion deliberately slandered the reputation of the other girl because she fell in love with someone else's fiancé.

In the end, he failed to frame others, but was tricked by his concubine sister, which became a joke discussed by many people at that time.

Although she was raised in a deep boudoir, she has such a temperament and character, that the noble girls in the capital who had been friends with Lu Fangyue began to respect her at a distance, and did not dare to have a close relationship with her.

And while he was still in the boudoir, he fell in love with someone else's fiancé and did not hesitate to slander the reputation of the girl next door. With such ruthless methods and cold temperament, no son of an aristocratic family would dare to propose marriage.

Besides, the Empress Empress also issued a decree at the beginning, saying that the second girl Lu had misbehaved, and ordered her to contemplate her mistakes behind closed doors at the mansion and not to go out.

Even the empress had spoken, so no one dared to marry Pingyanghou's second girl.

The Marquis of Pingyang decided to make a marriage with Zhao Shilang's family only after taking the second best.

For Lu Fangyue, this is already the best choice.

Moreover, the reason why the Zhao family could agree to the Marquis of Pingyang's marriage was because the Marquis of Pingyang promised to give the Zhao family a generous dowry.

The Pingyang Marquis Mansion belonged to a noble family, so they couldn't spend so much money originally, but Lu Fangyue's maternal grandfather, the He family, was a well-known wealthy family.

Lu Fangyue's mother, He Shi, is the only daughter of the He family. Since the death of the He family, the He family is worried that Lu Fangyue grew up lonely and helpless in the Pingyang Marquis Mansion, and specially sent someone to take her to the He family until she was raised. It was only when we were talking about marriage that we let her come back.

But the He family never expected that their granddaughter, who grew up like a pearl and jade, would do something like this just after returning to the capital, ruining their marriage for life.

In desperation, after choosing left and right, he could only choose the House of the Minister of the Household Department who was born in a poor family but fortunately had a bright future.

But whether it was the He family or the Pingyang Hou's mansion, none of them knew that the Zhao family they had chosen so much was the mother family of Tian Family An Wang Ye Hengfeng.

Ye Hengfeng and the Zhao family knew about this matter, but they all thought that Emperor Xiwu didn't know.

As for the others, except for Ye Shuhuang, no one else really knew.

"If I say that I found out by accident, would the fourth girl believe it?" Ye Shuhuang replied in this way.

Very perfunctory, it sounds like a lie.

But Lu Fangyin nodded her head, and said very seriously: "My daughter believes it."

This is interesting.

Ye Shuhuang raised her eyebrows and asked, "Why?"

"Your Highness, there is no need to lie." Lu Fangyin smiled sincerely, very sincerely: "With your highness's intelligence, you should have seen the scheme of the courtier, but you still helped the courtier."

"This matter may only be a very small matter for His Highness, but it is His Highness's little effort that saved the courtier from the dire straits, and brought the courtier back to life. The courtier is grateful to His Highness, and knows more and more, Your Highness is just a soft-hearted person."

"Second sister offended His Highness, but now she has been punished. Your Highness is not a narrow-minded person, so she won't be staring at Second Sister now. There is no need, and Second Sister is not worth your Highness's time."

"Even if His Highness really sent someone to watch Second Sister, I thought, it must not be because Second Sister offended His Highness. Therefore, I believe Your Highness's words."

Lu Fangyin plucked up the courage to finish this sentence. She lowered her head, not daring to look into Ye Shuhuang's eyes.

Ye Shuhuang smiled lightly. Everyone said that concubine girls were cowardly and could not stand on the stage, but she saw that Miss Lu Si was very smart.

It can be guessed that she knew about Lu Fangyue's engagement, maybe it was because of other things that she noticed Lu Fangyue.

But she didn't say it directly. Instead, while thanking her, she used these long speeches to remind her.

It's really interesting.

Ye Shuhuang didn't speak, which made Lu Fangyin feel a little uneasy.

Did she say something wrong?

Lu Fangyin raised her head cautiously again, and met Ye Shuhuang's eyes.

She lowered her head again in fright.

Seeing Lu Fangyin's series of reactions, Ye Shuhuang frowned slightly. It seems that some people in this world are quite right.

A concubine who grew up cautiously is really less courageous than ordinary people.

"Your Highness, is it the subject's daughter who said something wrong?" Lu Fangyin's voice was low.

Ye Shuhuang shook her head, and said gently: "No, what the fourth girl said makes a lot of sense."

Hearing Ye Shuhuang's comforting words, the corners of Lu Fangyin's mouth rose, a little happy.

"Just now, I saw that the fourth girl seemed to have something to say, what's the matter with the fourth girl?" Ye Shuhuang didn't have a twitchy temperament, so she asked directly.

Lu Fangyin was a little embarrassed: "My daughter just wanted to thank His Highness, but in fact, there is nothing else."

In fact, there are.

Lu Fangyin was going to tell Ye Shuhuang about Lu Fangyue's engagement, but what she didn't expect was that Ye Shuhuang had already known about it.

So Lu Fangyin didn't mention it.

Just for this?
Ye Shuhuang obviously didn't believe it, but she didn't ask, and just smiled lightly: "As Miss Si said, this matter is just a matter of little effort for this palace, so Miss Si don't need to take it to heart."

How can you not take it to heart.

Lu Fangyin silently added in her heart.

"Miss Si, if there is nothing else to do, I still have something to do, so I will take my leave first."

After speaking, Ye Shuhuang stood up, nodded slightly, and left the wing.

"Respectfully, Your Highness." Lu Fangyin saluted again.

"Girl, girl, you're back to your senses, Princess Changle has gone far away." Yicui shouted several times before waking Lu Fangyin who was in a daze, and she curled her lips: "Girl, I have never seen you treat anyone He cares more about Princess Changle."
