Reborn to marry the emperor, I just want to confuse the emperor and seize the throne

Tables, chairs and stools had already been placed in the main hall of Kunning Palace. The wives of court ministers and royal relatives sat down and talked with the empress. The hall was already filled with laughter.

Jiang Fenghua and Yuan Wenqiang came in, chatting and laughing, and bowed to the queen. "I pay my respects to the queen mother. May the queen mother be blessed with good health."

The queen smiled from ear to ear, "Get up, there are so many people here today, so you don't have to bow."

"Thank you, Mother." The two of them stood up.

As soon as the two came in, they were praised by the ladies.

The Third Princess mingled with the noble ladies and said jokingly, "Please don't tease me. I'm already a mother of three children. I'm not afraid of being laughed at if I tell others about it. The Fifth Princess is truly a real beauty!"

Jiang Fenghua's face was dyed with a camel color, and he said modestly, "Second sister-in-law, please don't flatter me. Fenghua has just arrived and needs more advice from you, lest I make mistakes and cause the ladies to laugh at me."

She has a sweet smile, graceful manners, and elegant clothes. Her dress is simple but gorgeous without stealing the limelight. She instantly gets along well with everyone.

In her previous life, Jiang Fenghua had no chance to make friends, curry favor, and build relationships, but in this life, she is well versed in these arts and quickly gained everyone's recognition and love.

The Second Princess walked in with a bad look on her face, "I pay my respects to the Queen."

The queen got annoyed when she saw her and said impatiently, "No need to be polite. There are many people here today. Go and have fun by yourselves. You don't have to stay by my side."

The Second Princess was really rude. She walked up to Princess Yan, bowed, and then sat down. She had long been dissatisfied with her mother-in-law. Within a few years of marriage, Princess Yan had stuffed countless women into the backyard of Prince Yu's Mansion.

She was the Princess of Prince Yu, and she was angry but had no place to vent it because she had not given birth to a child for so many years, while the concubine gave birth to a daughter, and the maid also became pregnant one after another.

Concubine Yan felt uncomfortable sitting here. She also looked down on her daughter-in-law. They had been married for so many years, but she hadn't laid an egg.

On the contrary, the lame third prince is lucky. His wife has given birth to two sons and one daughter for him.

Here, Jiang Fenghua was talking to the old lady of Duke Zhang's Mansion, making the old lady laugh continuously.

"My eldest brother often brings me local snacks from all over the world. I have tried many specialties from all over the world, but I always feel that the taste of my hometown is the best and the most satisfying." The Jiang family's ancestral home is not Shengjing, and not all members of the Jiang clan are in Shengjing, so she will also return to her hometown to worship her ancestors.

These words touched the old lady's heart. "Yes, that's what the Fifth Princess said. Whenever I eat the food from Yuzhou, other delicacies become boring to me."

"Yuzhou has the most abundant food, and you have to go to the local area to taste it..."

"So the Fifth Princess also knows that famous snack. It is a specialty of our hometown in Yuzhou. Whenever I think about it, no matter what delicacies I eat, they are not as comfortable as eating that hot glutinous rice cake."

She imitated the local dialect and gestured as she spoke, "The sugar noodles were delicious, too. Every time I finished eating them, I still felt unsatisfied, so I stretched out my fingers and pecked and licked them like this."

She looked as innocent as a child of a few years old.

Her actions brought back memories of Madam Zhang's youth. The older she got, the more she missed her childhood and her family. Tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Jiang Fenghua quickly handed over her handkerchief and winked playfully, "Old Madam, look at the flowers on my handkerchief and see if they are lifelike."

Old Madam Zhang immediately felt that she had been impolite, accepted Jiang Fenghua's kind reminder, and liked her very much.

The Queen saw that Jiang Fenghua was so familiar with the families of ministers in the court. She knew that a woman should not only take good care of her husband, but also build good relationships with all parties for her husband. Only then can she be considered a good wife. Jiang Fenghua did a good job in this regard.

"Hey, you young people should go and have fun instead of chatting with us old ladies. You won't feel bored." Old Madam Zhang suddenly said.

Then, she called a gentle beauty to her side, "Mo'er, why are you daydreaming? Come and chat with the Third Princess and the Fifth Princess."

Zhang Yumo is already nineteen years old, but she has never married, let alone promised herself to be married. With the status of Duke Zhang's mansion, she can choose any young man in Shengjing City.

However, she had no interest in anyone except...

"Grandma." Zhang Yumo called gently, her face turned red every time she looked at Jiang Fenghua.

Jiang Fenghua looked at her. She remembered that in her previous life, a lady from the Zhang family jumped into the river. She was this Miss Zhang.

In his previous life, the eldest brother did not go traveling to study, but honestly took part in the imperial examination in the capital. He took the first place in the palace examination and should have been the top scorer, but the emperor crossed it out and made him the third place. He then entered the officialdom, but it was not smooth. He was not satisfied in the officialdom, was suppressed by the Su family, and finally resigned.

She knew it was not that her eldest brother had no talent, but that the officialdom was too dark and there was no place for the Jiang family to stand.

He had not married yet. The Zhang family had come to his house several times to talk to him, but he had refused every time. He did not want to drag down the girl from the Zhang family. However, Zhang Yumo was so upset that she jumped into the lake.

Jiang Fenghua felt regretful when he thought about it. How could his brother miss out on such a gentle sister-in-law?

"Yumo pays her respects to Princess Heng." Zhang Yumo walked up to Jiang Fenghua and bowed slightly.

Jiang Fenghua took her hand affectionately and said, "Sister Yumo, you don't have to be so polite. Let's keep in touch. When my eldest brother brings Yuzhou snacks back to Beijing, I will definitely send you a message so that we can eat together."

Zhang Yumo's cheeks instantly turned red, her palms were burning, and she nodded shyly, "Yeah."

In the past, Concubine Yan also asked the Zhang family to marry Zhang Yumo on behalf of Prince Yu, but was rejected by Old Madam Zhang. Later, Zhang Yumo was never told about the marriage, and she stayed in the mansion and has become an old maid.

Concubine Yan sneered and joked, "I heard that last month Madam Liao from the Loyal and Brave Marquis's Mansion wanted to get closer to the Zhang family. This is a good marriage. If Miss Zhang marries, her aunt will be her mother-in-law. There will definitely be fewer conflicts in her life in the future. Miss Zhang is so lucky!"

Zhang Yumo blushed, feeling annoyed and helpless. Old Madam Zhang was so angry that her face changed. The Zhang family did not agree to the marriage with the Liao family. The Liao family was dirty inside and out. Who would want such relatives? The Zhang family had already cut off the relationship with the Liao family in secret. Who would want to marry their daughter to them? But Old Madam Zhang couldn't say that.

Jiang Fenghua hurriedly came to her rescue and changed the subject, "The Luo family of the Earl of Dongyang's mansion is exactly Princess Yu's maiden family. If Fenghua is right, Concubine Yan is also from the Luo family. In this way, Concubine Yan and Princess Yu are still relatives. Now that she is a mother-in-law, she is the envy of others. It is harmless for Princess Yu to call Concubine Yan aunt or mother. This is what makes everyone happy."

In terms of family background, the Luo family of Dongyang Earl's Mansion is far inferior to the Zhangguo Mansion. The Zhang family rejected Concubine Yan's proposal, and Concubine Yan turned around and married her niece from her own family. This was considered a second best option, which was already very embarrassing.

After hearing these words, Concubine Yan and Princess Yu both turned pale.

The Second Princess Luo Ziqiong was also shot while lying down. She was so angry that her teeth were itching. What about the harmonious mother-in-law and the real aunt? It was all bullshit. If Concubine Yan really treated her as her own niece, she would not send people to Xie Yu's room so often.

She couldn't say these words, let alone lose her temper on the spot, so she had to swallow this humiliation.

Concubine Yan failed to marry the granddaughter of Duke Zhang, so she married a distant relative of her family. The couple didn't even lay a egg after they got married, so how could everyone be happy?
