Yang Wanning immediately recalled Mrs. Cui. Although she couldn’t say Mrs. Cui loved Yang Shicheng, it was true that she had done too much for him.
In the end, she lost her reputation and her life.
Zhou Ying saw that Yang Wanning had taken her words in and continued, “King Rui is a good person. He won’t make things difficult for you as long as you don’t make a big mistake.
“Of course, I must remind you that you are a secondary consort. You have to handle your relationship with her well, or else the two of you, especially you, will not have a good time.”
“How should I handle this?”
“Respect. I don’t need to say much, and you should understand.
“Your duty is to serve His Highness, and you should focus all your attention on him. Try your best to make him like you and adapt to your presence.
“To put it bluntly, whether your position is stable or not depends on His Highness, not any other woman.
“Just be extra careful to prevent yourself from being schemed against.
“The last thing is not to go overboard, not to interfere in things that should not be your business, and not to fight for things that never belong to you.
“As long as you do these three things, even if the primary consort comes looking for trouble with you, His Highness will still stand by your side.” As Zhou Ying said this, she suddenly remembered the Fourth Prince and his scheme.
It seemed that she had to keep an eye on King Rui’s residence.
After chatting for a while longer, Yang Wanning returned to her courtyard with a heavy heart.
Soon, it was Gu Wanning’s wedding day.
Early in the morning, Zhou Ying got up and got busy. First, the Ministry of Rites people came over to bathe Gu Wanning and dress her up.
She didn’t expect that the person who would be blessing her was Madam Consort An.
After dressing her up, she even gave Gu Wanning a thousand taels of silver as her stash of money.
After they were done with their work, it was time for others to gift additional dowries. To be honest, there weren’t many others here. Other than some normal gifts, only Mingyu was wholeheartedly prepared for this.
Mingyu alone added another ten sets of dowries, which was quite a hefty sum.
When it was almost time, King Rui also arrived.
Since Gu Wanning did not have parents, only Chenglin was out to greet the groom and ask for a red packet.
Gu Chengrui carried Gu Wanning in her carriage and sent her to King Rui’s residence with her dowry and Gu Chenglin.
After the bridal carriage had left, Zhou Ying poured a basin of water outside, and it was over.
After returning, she entertained everyone and chatted for a while. Next, it was time to start the banquet and entertain the people who came to gift additional dowries.
After a meal, when most people had left, Madam Consort An found her and asked, “Ying, do you still have some cuc.u.mbers?”
“I do, but not much. Why don’t I send it to you tomorrow?”
Madam Consort An shook her head and whispered, “Just give me as much as you have. My stomach hasn’t been good recently, so I just want to eat something fresh to reduce the heat.”
Zhou Ying was stunned when she heard that. Wasn’t this constipation? She quickly asked, “Have you eaten any medicine? You shouldn’t delay this for too long.”
Madam Consort An shook her head and grimaced. “I don’t like to drink that medicine. It’s too bitter.”
“Alright then, please wait a moment; I’ll get them for you.” Zhou Ying turned around and went to the kitchen.
However, there were only two cuc.u.mbers left in the kitchen. Fortunately, the servants had gone for lunch, so Zhou Ying could take out five more cuc.u.mbers from her inters.p.a.ce and hand them to Madam Consort An’s nanny.
After sending Madam Consort An off, Zhou Ying returned to her room and laid down.
She did not sleep. Instead, she spread out her divine senses toward King Rui’s residence.
At this time, the wedding banquet was almost over, so Zhou Ying went to the bride and groom’s chamber..
