Madam Lu was speechless.
In terms of noble status, who in the world could be more esteed than the Crown Prince?
But...
Madam Lu raised her head and glanced at the Crown Princess, who was being held by the hand of the Empress, smiling with such grace.
Among so many ticulously dressed ladies, the Crown Princess seed dazzlingly noticeable at first sight.
She sighed. With such a Crown Princess, and it being their newlywed period, how could the Crown Prince’s attention fall on her daughter?
Moreover, as a mother, she always hoped for the best for her daughter.
A title like Crown Prince’s Side Consort, no matter how noble it sounds, was nothing more than a concubine.
Which mother would be willing to have her cherished and pampered daughter grow up to beco a lowly concubine?
Besides, if Lu Xi married into another family, they could still support her if she faced any grievances, but if she married into the Imperial Family, then her fate would truly be left to destiny.
She had always believed that Xier would understand this reasoning, waiting for her to figure it out herself.
But now, Xier seed to be more and more obsessed.
Madam Lu held her daughter’s hand. It seed that after returning to the mansion today, she needed to have a good talk with her daughter.
At this mont, the sharp voice of an eunuch was heard from outside.
"The Crown Prince has arrived!"
The hall instantly fell silent, and the won all sat upright, with so who had never seen the Crown Prince before sneaking glances at him as he just stepped through the door.
Yun Qi was completely indifferent to the various subtle gazes in the hall.
He personally presented the gifts held by the eunuch behind him to the Empress, perford a grand ceremony, and uttered a few words of blessing.
Gu Shengyin widened her eyes the mont Yun Qi entered the hall.
This man truly is...
Her heart felt a warm sensation, as if being gently washed over by the finest wine.
With so many won in the hall, Yun Qi couldn’t stay long. After presenting the gifts personally, he glanced at Gu Shengyin behind the Empress, gave her a smile, and was about to leave.
At this mont, the Old Empress Dowager from the Prince of Pingxi’s Mansion, sitting on the other side of the Empress, suddenly exclaid.
Everyone was drawn to her by this commotion.
The Old Empress Dowager from the Prince of Pingxi’s Mansion was in her sixties, with her silver hair ticulously tied into a bun, and her eyes were not cloudy like those of the usual elderly but full of spirit.
She held a high status in the Imperial Family, with a good reputation, even the Empress affectionately called her Imperial Aunt in private.
The Empress asked with concern, "What’s the matter, Imperial Aunt?"
The Old Empress Dowager from the Prince of Pingxi’s Mansion squinted her eyes with a smile, pointing at Gu Shengyin, and then at Yun Qi, "I just noticed that the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess’s clothes seem to be made from the sa fabric."
Upon closer inspection, indeed, the Crown Prince was wearing a similar heavy purple robe.
Earlier, when he entered, everyone didn’t pay much attention, but now as he stood with the Crown Princess, their clothing was indeed matching, even with identical cloud patterns on the cuffs.
Several young married madams blushed, while the older madams burst into laughter.
The Empress examined closely and teased Gu Shengyin, who was blushing but trying to maintain composure, "Oh my, this is sothing! Not only do you two co and go together, but now even your clothes are made from the sa fabric?"
For such a trivial matter, Gu Shengyin herself found nothing of it.
But Su Chaohua, having never faced such a situation, could only feign shyness while clutching a handkerchief and smiling.
