In the following days, Lin Wan continued to do her own things step by step, but Lu Tingxu's side was very lively every day.

After Yan Liu came into the house, Lin Wan hesitated whether to arrange a courtyard for her, but Lu Tingxu refused and did not mention the matter of giving her a concubine. So Yan Liu lived in Lu Tingxu's courtyard without any name or status.

The two of them were inseparable every day, sometimes quarreling over trivial matters, but would make up immediately.

Seeing how favored Miss Yanliu was, the people in the mansion all went to the prince's side. She also did as she said she wanted to be equal, getting along well with the servants, and everyone openly liked her.

However, in private, many people still looked down on her. After all, a girl with no status followed Lu Tingxu, and her behavior was casual. The two of them even did some intimate actions in front of the servants.

There were originally two maids serving in Lu Tingxu's courtyard, one named Chunfeng and the other named Qiuyu. Like Mingmo and Mingyan, they had been with Lu Tingxu for many years. Chunfeng was a few years older than Lu Tingxu, and was from Lu Tingxu's grandmother's side, and was later given to him.

Chunfeng is Lu Tingxu's concubine, and has been staying in the Marquis' Mansion obediently. She originally thought that she would be promoted to a concubine after the prince got married, but she didn't expect that there was Ye Shiyue outside. Lu Tingxu didn't even pay attention to Lin Wan, the young lady, let alone her.

She endured and endured, thinking that Ye Shiyue was sent away and she would be able to make a breakthrough. The fact was as she wished. During the time when Lu Tingxu was sad, Chunfeng was always with him, and the relationship between the two returned to the past.

However, he did not expect that this intimacy would not last long. Before Chunfeng's long-awaited aunt appeared, Yanliu came.

Yan Liu is not like Ye Shiyue. Ye Shiyue did not enter the Marquis' Mansion. Chunfeng was always with Lu Tingxu when he was in the Marquis' Mansion. But Yan Liu lived in the same room with Lu Tingxu, and Chunfeng now had no chance to get close to Lu Tingxu.

The servants in the mansion all said that Yan Liu was easy to get along with, but Chun Feng didn't think so at all. Because Yan Liu had a strong possessiveness towards Lu Tingxu. She knew that Lin Wan was Lu Tingxu's legal wife, and that Xiao and Marquis Lu in the mansion liked her very much, and Lu Tingxu also respected her a little. So as she said to Lin Wan, as long as Lin Wan didn't compete with her for Lu Tingxu, the two of them could live their own lives and not interfere with each other.

But Chunfeng is different. She is Lu Tingxu's concubine and has been with Lu Tingxu for many years. So the first thing Yanliu did when she came was to ask Lu Tingxu to drive Chunfeng away.

Lu Tingxu's heart was now on Yan Liu. Seeing that she didn't like Chun Feng, he didn't say anything and just drove her out of her yard.

That day, Lin Wan finally had some free time, and took her maid for a walk in the garden. She heard the sound of people arguing in the distance.

"How can you be so shameless? Lu Tingxu asked you to leave, so why are you still hanging around here all day?"

"You... I am from the Marquis' Mansion, and I am working in the garden now..."

"You put it nicely. You are from some marquis' mansion! You really take yourself too seriously, don't you? I'll go back and ask Lu Tingxu to kick you out."

"you……"

Lin Wan walked over and saw that it was Yanliu and Chunfeng.

Today, Lu Tingxu went out early in the morning. Yanliu took her maid out to visit the garden and happened to meet Chunfeng who was driven out of the yard by Lu Tingxu. Chunfeng was cleaning the garden now. His life was much worse than before. The clothes he wore were just ordinary cotton clothes that had been washed and worn out.

Yan Liu would find a reason to scold her whenever she saw her, but Chun Feng, considering her status as a servant, repeatedly tolerated her. Unexpectedly, her tolerance made Yan Liu even more aggressive. Now she was even going to be kicked out of the mansion. She was a maid who had grown up in the mansion since she was a child, and she was deflowered by Lu Tingxu. If she was kicked out, she would really be dead.

When she saw Lin Wan coming, she immediately knelt on the ground and cried, "Madam, please, don't let the prince drive me away."

Lin Wan looked at Chun Feng who was crying bitterly and winked at Qing Lian, who quickly stepped forward to help her up. "You are a maid in the mansion and you have done nothing wrong, why are you leaving!"

Seeing Lin Wan helping Chun Feng, Yan Liu angrily interrupted, "What do you mean? Lu Tingxu clearly told her to leave, but she insisted on staying here. This kind of person has evil intentions. I want her to get out of here!"

Lin Wan looked at her and smiled, "Evil intentions? Chunfeng is the maid given by the old lady to the prince. Even I can't drive her away for no reason. Miss Yanliu is so arrogant!"

"You...how can you be so shameless!"

"How outrageous!" Qinglian scolded.

"You are the one who is so presumptuous! Didn't you see that the master is talking? Why are you, a servant, butting in?"

"What kind of master are you!" Qinglian's face turned red with anger. This person had no status in the Marquis's mansion, not even a concubine, and yet she spoke wildly in front of the young lady. Qinglian only hated herself for not considering her status and rushing up to slap her twice.

Lin Wan smiled and said, "Didn't you say that everyone is equal? ​​Why are you now dividing people into masters and servants?"

"You...just wait and see!"

After saying these harsh words, Yan Liu ran away without looking back, and it looked like she was going to find Lu Tingxu to complain.

"Young Madam, I'm sorry, it's all because of me. If the prince is angry, just punish me. It's all my fault." Chunfeng looked at Yanliu who was running away, and hurriedly cried to Lin Wan.

"It has nothing to do with you. Go back first and don't do this job anymore." Lin Wan glanced at her and said indifferently. Then she turned around and took Qinglian back to her yard.

"Young Madam, this Yan Liu is too much. Are you just going to let it go just like that after she spoke like that?"

"Please pass a message to the gatekeeper for me. When the prince comes back, tell him that I have something to talk to him about and ask him to come over." Lin Wan kept walking, looking at the green willow branches in the garden and said in a low voice. Her usually gentle face was rarely cold.

Let her go? How could it be possible!

If I let her go, she would drive me, the young lady, away next.

Lin Wan didn’t take Yan Liu seriously before, but it was obvious that Yan Liu didn’t recognize her position. If she didn’t take action again, she would no longer be herself.

However, as a concubine with no name and no status, Lin Wan didn't even think of taking action himself, nor did he want to spend too much energy on her. The simplest way was to lift the concubine up and use her strength to fight against her.

As for the candidate, didn’t Yan Liu just find someone for her?

Chunfeng was the person who had been with Lu Tingxu the longest. Although the feelings between the two of them for many years could not compare to the freshness brought by Yanliu, they did not necessarily have no good memories. Moreover, because of Yanliu, Chunfeng was sent from Lu Tingxu's first-class maid to do garden cleaning work. Today, she was humiliated by her in every way. Her hatred for Yanliu was much greater than Lin Wan's.

Back in the room, Lin Wan immediately sent someone to tell Xiao that she wanted to make Chunfeng her concubine. Before Lu Tingxu came back, Xiao's reply arrived, along with Chunfeng's indenture.

Lin Wan held Chunfeng's indenture contract and smiled gently. A maid's voice came from outside: "My Lord, the young lady is waiting for you."
