Chapter 20: The Draft (4)
"I don't think so, but I can't persuade your father to go his own way." In this matter, even if Princess Cheng is the head of the family, the power is greater than that of Prince Cheng, who is the head of the family.
"I understand Dad's thoughts, the little sister's ordinary appearance is afraid that it is difficult to attract the emperor's attention, he thinks that Cheng Mengyao's beauty will definitely be favored by His Majesty, but he doesn't know His Majesty too well, if it is about beauty, there are many palace maids in the palace who are outstanding, but Your Majesty has never looked at it squarely, isn't Dad not white Your Majesty is not a lustful person?" In fact, who can really guess what the emperor thinks, Concubine Cheng just wants to use this reason to dismiss Prince Cheng's decision.
"Yes, I will definitely inform the prince of my mother's meaning when I go back." The woman couldn't enter the palace for too long, so Princess Cheng was in a hurry to go out.
"Mother, you tell your father that if he insists on going his own way, don't blame your daughter for not helping him." Such straightforward words scared Princess Cheng so much that she almost fell off the chair, which was almost announcing that if it was Cheng Mengyao who entered the palace, she would not help, and maybe step on it a few times.
"Niangniang, but your fifth sister is also a family member after all, if she can enter the palace to get some favor, it is not the worst situation." Princess Cheng didn't have the confidence to persuade Prince Cheng, and she was even more afraid when she heard her daughter's words.
Cheng Mengyao's entry into the palace is not a bad thing for their entire Cheng family, if her daughter obstructs and messes up this matter, I am afraid that Prince Cheng will not treat her well in the future.
"Are you confused? Do you want to be trampled under the feet of the Li mother and daughter in the future? "Concubine Cheng is not stupid, she is the eldest daughter, she has a smooth life, she has always looked down on those concubines born in the side room of the family, how can they be allowed to overshadow her one day? Not even on an equal footing!
Compared with your own interests, what are the benefits of starting a family?
"Niangniang, I'm afraid that Niangniang will lack helpers in the palace, it would be nice if Mengxi could be outstanding." Princess Cheng's white daughter is also thinking about her, so she can only lament that her young daughter is not good enough and has failed to enter Prince Cheng's eyes.
"Mother, you just need to convey my meaning to my father, what he will do in vain is the best for the family, as long as he still needs the help of my concubine for a day, he will not treat you and my little sister badly." Mother and daughter are connected, and the idea of becoming a princess Cheng Guifei has naturally thought about it countless times, but the reality is so cruel, her little sister is an ordinary woman.
Cheng Mengxi is definitely not a good candidate to enter the palace, she is too ordinary, and because of her noble status, she has grown up under the doting of Princess Cheng since she was a child, and she has no ability to survive in the intrigue, which is also a mistake of Princess Cheng, thinking that the eldest daughter has a guarantee when she becomes a concubine, and neglects the education of the younger daughter.
Hearing this, Princess Cheng could only bow her head and be speechless.
This is the reality in the big family, the women in the backyard are chess pieces that can be discarded at any time, whoever is useful will be valued, and now her daughter is the position of the concubine, so even if Princess Cheng often treats other side room maids harshly, Prince Cheng also turns a blind eye, if the Li mother and daughter are once in power, will they not return the previous grievances to her?
