kind of love and care.”Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyao raised an eyebrow and smiled lightly, "Meng Jinyu is becoming quite clever. However, with her mind, she couldn't possibly think too far ahead. Per...It's day.

After a recent autumn rain, the ground is damp and the temperature has dropped considerably.

Given this weather, Princess Jingning suddenly paid a visit.

Meng Jin Yao was overjoyed. She had been feeling bored, and now her girl friend had come to visit. Having someone to play with was much better than finding things to do on her own.

Although she was constantly accompanied by her maidservant, it wasn't the same as being with friends. Due to their status difference, the maidservant would be reserved and unable to speak freely.

Princess Jingning snuck out this time, even buying a box of點心 from Yipin Zhai for Meng Jinyao on her way and feeding it to her.

Princess Jingning has a discerning palate and is very picky. Even the snacks made by the imperial kitchen were barely touched by her. Seeing her eat with relish, she suddenly had an appetite and ate two in a row. She then suddenly said: “Ayao, I suddenly feel envious of you.

"

When she suddenly said something like that, Meng Jinyang was taken aback. She looked at her with puzzled eyes and asked with a smile, "Are you envious of me Envious that I'm older than you"

"You're only a year older than me," Jingning County Princess glared at her, then said, "I envy that you have sisters-in-law. It's quite nice to suddenly find yourself with a sister-in-law."

Meng Jinyao was puzzled: "But you have an older brother, don't you Isn't there a sister-in-law"

Jingning County Master said: "No, it's sister-in-law. The one from my husband's family.

Meng Jin Yao said softly, "Young Master Shen is the eldest legitimate son and has a younger half-brother. His younger brother isn't old enough to marry yet, but he will be someday. Then you'll have sisters-in-law too."

“The different kind of quiet Princess sighed and said dejectedly, ‘I feel like someone like you, having an older sister-in-law to take care of things, is pretty good. You don’t have to work hard yourself. I just don’t understand, being a lady in waiting is hard work, how come so many women desire it Anyway, I definitely don’t desire it.’

"

Upon hearing this, Meng Jingyao understood. Ah Yan had previously hinted that the Princess knew her temperament and didn't want to marry her off to the eldest son as a concubine. Therefore, things weren't done according to the standards for a concubine. Now, her fiance, the Crown Prince of the Shen family, is the heir apparent. The wife of the Duke of Shen is bedridden, so Ah Yan would immediately be in charge of managing the household upon marrying into the family. This is a pressure on Ah Yan.

Meng Jin Yao comforted, "A-Yan, calm yourself. You haven't married yet, the Princess Consort will teach you. Right now, you just need to learn what you should. Besides, when you marry, the Princess Consort will also choose some capable maidservants to accompany you as dowry and assist you in handling affairs. Then, things won't be as difficult as you imagine."

Princess Jingning held her face, frowning and said, "This morning, my mother gave me a pile of account books and asked me to learn how to balance them. She wanted me to find the problematic accounts. Just seeing the account books made my head hurt, so I secretly ran out for some fresh air."

Meng Jinyao was astonished. She hadn't expected that she had secretly run out. "If the princess knew you ran out, wouldn't she be angry with you"

Jing Ning County Princess had already figured out the ending, and replied, "When she goes back, she'll definitely say I'm useless and incapable."

"A-Yan is not mud, A-Yan is a smart little girl.

Meng Jinyao soothed in a soft voice: "Don't think of it as too difficult. Actually, looking at account books is quite easy. I guess your headache comes from seeing the princess give you piles of account books, making you feel like you have to spend ages reading them and never finishing, thus creating resistance. Put them aside for now and let the maids hand one to you at a time. When you finish one, have them pass you the next."

Upon hearing this, Jingning County Princess' face subtly shifted as she looked at her: "Ayao, do you think I'm a three-year-old child Even though that is the case, I still want to read so many books.

Meng Jin Yao smiled and retorted, "What else Ignoring it for now is just temporary avoidance to lessen the resistance. But what needs to be done still needs to be done."

Jingning County Princess let out a long sigh, and after a moment she said: "Forget it, let's not talk about this "

Meng Jin Yao said softly, "Ayan, don't worry, take your time. You're not getting married until the end of the year."

The quiet princess nodded lightly: "Actually, I'm fine. I just wanted to vent to someone. It feels much better now that I've said it out loud. I'll get a good night's sleep tonight, and tomorrow I'll adjust my attitude and continue looking over the ledger. My mother is so smart; there's no way I can't learn this too."

Meng Jinyao, upon hearing this, noticed that she was no longer as despondent as before. Her voice was firm and confident as she smiled and said, "A-Yan likes Shen Shizi very much. She previously said she wouldn't marry the eldest son, but now that he is Shen Shizi, you are willing"

She finished speaking, and the Quiet Ning Princess blushed and averted her face. Her voice was tinged with a touch of arrogance: "Not bad, I guess. He's pretty decent-looking, so when Duke Shen personally came to propose, I told my mother that he had a certain charm. Marrying him wouldn't be an eyesore."

Meng Jin Yao smiled knowingly.

Jingning Princess suddenly remembered something and turned to look at her, asking, "Ayao, have you heard about that"

Meng Jin Yao was puzzled: "What's wrong"

Quiet Princess said, "Didn't Marquis Gu used to have a fiancée The one from the Mei family. After Marquis Gu was injured, the Mei family broke off the engagement, and she married someone else."

"Lady Wei" Meng Jinyu nodded slightly, then continued, "Didn't I return to Huizhou Prefecture with Lord Hou before Her husband is the magistrate of Huizhou. On Lady Wei's mother's birthday, my Lord and I were invited to a banquet. That's when I met her. Why did you suddenly bring her up"

The tranquil Princess returned, "She was abandoned by the Wei family and just returned to her natal home in the capital a couple of days ago."

Upon hearing this, Meng Jinyu's eyes widened in shock: "What How could she be sent back to her family after being so well-off I went shopping with the Marquis before, and ran into her and Wei DaRen. We even had lunch together as a couple. At that time, they seemed quite affectionate. She also told me about her romantic past with Wei DaRen."

Jingning County Princess replied, "I heard that she was divorced because she had no children after marrying into the Wei family for many years. The Wei family disliked her inability to bear children."

Meng Jin Yao, after hearing this, felt something was amiss. Wei Fu had been married to the Wei family for many years without producing a child, and the Wei family never considered divorcing her to take another wife. Instead, they registered the illegitimate son under Wei Fu's name. If it were truly because of the lack of a son that they were considering divorce, why would they have delayed for so long

The only possible explanation is that it was because of love. Because Lord Wei loved Lady Wei, he gave Lady Wei a divorce letter at this critical juncture, allowing her to return to her maiden home.

Lord Wei was corrupt and took bribes. He also caused the deaths of three officials, and it is estimated that he did other evil deeds. When Lord Wei was escorted back to the capital, his family would suffer.

According to the timeline, Lord Wei abandoned Lady Wei when her husband went to Hangzhou Prefecture to investigate Master Han. At that time, Lord Wei also knew that the Wei family couldn't escape punishment. The female members of the Wei family would most likely either be exiled or sent to the Imperial Entertainment Bureau. Lord Wei didn't want Lady Wei to suffer as well, so he found an excuse and gave her a divorce paper.ce Liang was the Emperor's own brother, and Princess Jingning was the Empress Dowager's beloved granddaughter, enjoying the highest status among all noblewomen in our dynasty.
