When the prince returned to the capital, he brought back a woman with an astonishing appearance and insisted on making her the crown prince.
At first, the emperor and the empress did not agree, but after being pulled into a conversation by the prince, she actually relaxed.
After hearing the news, all the noble ladies from aristocratic families who admired the prince bitten their handkerchiefs.
No, then why are you so charming?
-
Yu He had long heard that the capital city had strict rules. At first, she was worried that she, a powerless commoner, would have a hard time here.
However——
When she was thirsty and wanted to get a pear, the daughter of Li Shilang's family knelt down without saying a word, raised the pear above her head with both hands and handed it to her tremblingly.
When she was hungry and wanted to eat a piece of pastry, the second lady of the Prime Minister's Palace cried and said that she had not treated her well. He immediately ordered someone to pack all the Yusuzhai pastries, the most famous in the capital, for her to apologize, and begged her to accept them.
It was getting hot, so she raised her hand to wipe her sweat-soaked temples. The ladies immediately lined up behind her and fanned her with their own hands.
…
Yu He and the prince lamented that the people in the capital were still too enthusiastic.
The prince smiled calmly, hiding his merit and fame.
Until one day, when Yu He was passing by the bridge, he overheard several noble ladies talking about him.
"Miss Yu glanced at me today. At that time, I felt my heart beating faster and my body was numb. Do you think I have been poisoned?"
"I remember you sat down a moment before her."
"What should I do? Is it too late for me to go back and apologize?"
"Have you forgotten Mrs. Shen's lesson? Go quickly. Alas, everyone should be more careful in the future. After all, she comes from the Miao border. I heard that she is very good at poison. If she offends her, we may be worse than dead!"
A question popped up in Yu He's head: How do they know their origins?
Later, when Tai Zi, the rumor maker, learned that his little fairy really came from Miao territory, he was silent for a moment and then swallowed: "So the voodoo technique..."
Yu He sincerely shook his head: "I can't."
The prince breathed a sigh of relief. It was not until the wedding day, when his in-laws came, that he realized that he was still relieved.
——You didn't say that the Miao Saintess was your sister? ?
