142 Such Good Luck

Zhao Yingying dressed up casually. The color of her clothes was also very plain, and there were no mistakes to be picked out. On the other hand, the other girls in the Zhao family had almost taken out all their clothes from their chests, determined to stand out in this talent show.

It was not easy for the 28 daughters of the Zhao family to get married. In addition, there were rumors that the daughters of the Zhao family could not give birth to a son. This made it even more difficult for the ladies of the Zhao family to find a good marriage. Moreover, Xiao Meili, the mistress of the house, looked kind, but she was actually very vicious. No one dared to place their hopes on Xiao Meili. As for Zhao Hongwei, it was even more so. He only knew how to fool around with women every day. The speed of giving birth to a daughter was shocking. Their daughters were not even married yet, and in the blink of an eye, they had two younger sisters!

The Zhao family’s girls who had come to participate in the selection of concubines smiled bitterly and stood to the side, not daring to speak. The entire Zhao family knew that Zhao Yingying did not want to enter the palace, but Zhao Panpan would definitely enter the palace. Since Zhao Panpan was young, her words and actions had been taught by the palace’s old maidservants. All her food and drink had been chosen by the empress. Standing among all the young ladies, she was the most outstanding one.

“It’s said that Miss Zhao Panpan is both beautiful and talented in Jing City, but it seems like the rumors are somewhat fake…” A round-faced girl suddenly turned to look at Zhao Panpan. Zhao Panpan’s expression did not change, but her eyes were cold.

Everyone looked at the round-faced girl in surprise. They did not expect her to be so bold, but the next second, she said, “Miss Zhao Panpan’s face is like a peach blossom, and every frown and smile is soul-stirring. Which girl in Jing City can compare to miss Zhao Panpan? If I say that she is the number one beauty in the world, I’m afraid no one would dare to refute me.” This flattery was simply shameless!

Zhao Yingying sneered and suddenly felt that it was a little ridiculous. In her previous life, she was good friends with this round-faced little girl. At that time, she thought that she was sweet-tongued and good at coaxing people, so she regarded her as her only friend. However, Zhao Yingying felt that she was blind in her previous life to be good friends with her! Seeing her clinging onto Zhao Panpan’s thigh and not letting go with a face full of flattery, she scoffed. Hugging onto Zhao Panpan’s thigh? Her sister-in-law was the one who was really awesome! She had lived for two lifetimes before she met someone as strong as Jiang Xi.

“Tsk, some people really don’t care about their faces just to flatter. Don’t you know that the daughters of the Zhao family can’t give birth to sons? His Majesty wants to select concubines to fill the harem, but it’s nothing more than to have more children. Whether it’s the emperor or the crown prince, who would want a wife who can only have daughters and not sons?” A woman’s voice came from the side, her voice full of ridicule.

Zhao Panpan furrowed her brows. She had seen this girl a few times before. She was the empress’ niece.

“You’re standing at the palace gates, but still dare to talk about the emperor and the crown prince. Do you not want to live? ” A woman who was a general stood out and stopped their discussion.

Only then did everyone look left and right. Seeing that the sky was already bright and the palace gate was about to open, they immediately quieted down. However, each of them had their own thoughts.

Jiang Xi, who had been waiting outside, saw that Zhao Yingying was isolated by a group of girls and suddenly felt distressed.

“This is for you. Remember to open it when you encounter any difficulties.” Jiang Xi handed a small silk bag to Zhao Yingying. The small silk bag was tightly sealed, and nothing inside could be seen. Zhao Yingying’s eyes were bright. She had looked lifeless a moment ago, but now she looked a little excited. She touched the silk bag over and over again, then reluctantly put it in the innermost part of her clothes.

When they saw Jiang Xi, the people around them whispered, “Is this Jiang Xi? The general’s future wife? The fiancée who wasn’t killed by General Zhao Ruifeng? Looking at the situation, she might really become the Zhao family’s Young Madam in the future.”

Everyone was envious when they saw Jiang Xi and Zhao Yingying being so close. Who in Jing City did not know that Zhao Ruifeng was a henpecked husband? Moreover, he was the kind of person who doted on his wife without limit. Unfortunately, although they were envious, they did not dare to gamble with their lives. Jiang Xi might not be cursed to death by marrying Zhao Ruifeng, but it did not mean that they would not be cursed to death.

“I heard that Jiang Xi is a village woman. She’s so lucky to be able to marry General Zhao Ruifeng,” someone whispered enviously. Suddenly, someone in the crowd gave her a second look.
