Chapter 229 Infighting
Bai Yiyi suffered humiliation during this trip out of the house.
She thought that those people would be respectful to her, but everything seemed to be no different from before.
She doesn't understand.
She is now Prince Yu's concubine. When Prince Yu enters the Eastern Palace, she will be the Crown Prince's concubine, and will even become the Imperial Concubine in the future.
Why didn't they come to please her?
Bai Yiyi drank the milk tea served by her maid, staring at the luxurious room in silence.
Suddenly, she heard the maid talking about Jiang Wanyue's preparation for the flower banquet at the palace. She put down the bowl in her hand, her eyes slightly turned and asked, "Is the flower banquet prepared by the princess herself?"
The maid smiled and replied, "In reply to Concubine, the prince has handed over the keys to the storehouse and the accounts to the princess, so the banquet is naturally prepared by the princess."
Bai Yiyi was thoughtful and understood why Gu Jin and Li Ziheng dared to neglect her.
Although she was Prince Yu's concubine, she was ultimately just a concubine. Even though she was favored, she did not have any power.
Just like those nobles in the capital, even if they are dukes or marquises, they still have no prestige as long as they do not have real power.
Bai Yiyi's eyes turned slightly and a plan came to her mind.
At this time, Jiang Wanyue was checking the accounts in the room and planning the budget for the palace's flower banquet using an abacus.
This was the first flower banquet she had hosted since becoming a princess, so it had to be perfect without any mistakes.
Although the Jiang family didn't spend much time on her, she was a girl from the Jiang family after all, so managing the household chores was easy for her.
"Princess, the prince is here."
Jiang Wanyue quickly put down what she was holding and stood up to greet Prince Yu.
"Your Highness, please have some tea." Jiang Wanyue knew that Prince Yu liked gentle and respectful women, so she always looked well-behaved and sensible in front of him.
Prince Yu was indeed very pleased, with a hint of smile in his eyes, "Since you came into the mansion, you have not only managed the mansion in perfect order, but you have also gotten along very well with Yiyi.
Only when the harem is peaceful can I be at ease with the affairs of the previous dynasty."
"This is what I should do." Jiang Wanyue replied softly.
Prince Yu nodded, very satisfied with Jiang Wanyue's recognition.
"You are virtuous, gentle and polite. Seeing that you are working hard to prepare the flower banquet, she took the initiative to help you share the burden."
Jiang Wanyue's smile froze, but her tone remained gentle, "Preparing for a flower banquet is not an easy task. Sister Yiyi is weak and has to take care of the prince. I am worried that she will not be able to handle it."
Prince Yu didn't want Bai Yiyi to interfere in these mundane matters, but since this was her kindness, he couldn't bear to refuse.
"That's fine. You can assign her some light tasks. When the news spreads that this flower banquet was organized by the two of you, it will better demonstrate the style of Prince Yu's Mansion."
Jiang Wanyue's teeth were about to break, but she had to smile and said, "Okay, then I'll listen to your order, Your Majesty."
Prince Yu worked for a while and then found an excuse to leave. Jiang Wanyue knew that he was going to look for Bai Yiyi and did not try to keep him.
After Prince Yu left, she slammed the table in anger, and the gentleness on her face disappeared completely.
"Little bitch surnamed Bai, it's not enough to be favored by the prince, now she dares to stretch her claws into the palace's food!"
She could tolerate Bai Yiyi's flattery, but she would never allow her to covet the power in her hands.
Bai Yiyi was clearly here for power sharing, so only the prince would believe her nonsense!
Jiang Wanyue's eyes were cold and gleaming. She had wanted to live in peace with Bai Yiyi, but now that she had dared to cross her bottom line, she would not surrender. She would never give up on this matter. "Bai Yiyi, since you have bad intentions, don't blame me for fighting you!"
