Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability

Chapter 391 - 391 The Latter Was More Likely

391 The Latter Was More Likely

To put it bluntly, she had no backing now. What else could she do but curry favor with the Grand Preceptor?

“Yan’er, listen to me. Prince Zhan Yun is also a good choice. Your father is right. Even the Emperor is wary of Qian Jiyun.

“If you can win his favor, my life in the Grand Preceptor Residence will be much easier. Your father won’t give me an attitude all day.”

Yu Yan’er’s heart grew cold.

!!
Is she making her daughter woo a man whose heart is as cold as ice to make her life easier in the Grand Preceptor Residence? This is my mother?!

“Ha, haha.” She could not help looking up at the bright sunlight.

The hot sun shone brightly in the sky, and she should have been sweating from the heat. However, she felt cold all over.

Was this still her home?

Ever since she was young, she knew she had to be exceptional and do her best. Only then could her mother have the right to show off to others and be the most glorious.

But how important was all of this?

In the end, she had to be forced to do something she didn’t want to do because of something her father said?

“Mother, let me ask you something. If Prince Zhan Yun really likes me and wants to take me in as a concubine, will you and Father also—”

“Isn’t that great!”

Before Yu Yan’er could finish her sentence, Madam Yu clapped her hands happily.

“Yan’er, you’ve come round? That’s great! I knew it! With your talent and looks, no man can resist you!

“Prince Zhan Yun is also a mortal. Every man prefers the new to the old. Look, he has been looking for his princess consort for years, acting as if he’s devoted to her. But he couldn’t keep pretending forever, could he?

“Yan’er, I’ve seen that woman he brought back. She’s not pretty at all.

“You’re the most talented woman in the capital. That vixen can’t compare to you as long as you stand in front of Prince Zhan Yun. Concubine? You can even become the princess consort.”

She walked up the stone bridge slowly to approach Yu Yan’er and spoke excitedly.

Yu Yan’er kept looking at her mother as she spoke. She felt like vomiting.

How disgusting! Is this my mother? Is she so eager to push me into a fire pit?

She was the most talented woman in the capital. There was no denying that. She had always been intelligent and had good reasoning skills. She was able to answer questions that her brothers were unable to.

That was how she obtained her father’s affection.

It was precisely because of her intelligence that she could tell that Prince Zhan Yun was not pretending to be in love with the princess consort!

Since Prince Zhan Yun had brought a woman back, there were only two possibilities. One was to confuse others. Two, that woman was Princess Consort Zhan Yun!

She thought the latter was more likely.

But even if she knew what was going on, she would not tell anyone—not even her parents!

She watched Madam Yu as she continued speaking.

“Yan’er, tomorrow is the annual Lotus Lantern Festival in the capital. This is that woman’s first visit to the capital. He will definitely bring her to the festival.”
