During this period of time, Li Xiuwan inquired about Jiujiu very carefully. Whether it was Jiujiu's background or what had happened to Jiujiu, she knew everything clearly.
The reason why Jiujiu came to the capital was an accident. It was also a coincidence that she was liked by Princess Royal Jiarong and Xiao Rong.
But.
Li Xiuwan came back from her previous life.
After encountering all kinds of coincidences from her cousin's concubines, Li Xiuwan no longer believed in the so-called coincidence.
Li Xiuwan was more willing to believe that all of this was deliberately calculated by Jiujiu.
Now hearing that Jiujiu said that she had someone she liked, Li Xiuwan's first thought was Xiao Rong.
Xiao Rong was so handsome and noble. Even if he didn't do anything, he must have a bright future.
What was more, Xiao Rong was also capable. It was normal for him to be outstanding and become an overlord.
In her previous life, she was blinded by lard. That was why she thought that Xiao Rong was just a second generation who relied on his family to survive.
Seeing that Jiujiu was still beautiful even without makeup, Li Xiuwan knew that if Jiujiu really wanted to compete with her for Xiao Rong, she had no chance of winning.
Now she could only pin her hope on the fact that the person Jiujiu liked was not Xiao Rong.
But how could Jiujiu not like Xiao Rong?
Li Xiuwan couldn't help but ask, "Sister, is the person you like Xiao Rong?"
Jiujiu smiled slightly. The smile on the corner of her mouth was like the warm sunshine in spring. Her eyes curved into two small crescent moons. It seemed that she could see through Li Xiuwan's thoughts at a glance.
Even if Jiujiu didn't say it, people could see that the person she liked was Xiao Rong from the curve of her eyes when she mentioned Xiao Rong.
Strictly speaking, it was true.
After all, Xiao Rong had the fragment she wanted. It was not wrong to say that she liked Xiao Rong.
Jiujiu nodded, "What's wrong?"
Jiujiu's question, "What's wrong?", was murderous.
After all, Li Xiuwan not only liked Xiao Rong, but also wanted to marry him.
Now Xiao Rong only liked Jiujiu, and Jiujiu also said that she liked Xiao Rong. Therefore, Li Xiuwan's existence was very awkward.
Li Xiuwan looked at Jiujiu's bashful smile and resisted the urge to scratch Jiujiu's face with a knife. She gritted her teeth and said, "So you like General Xiao."
Yes, before Xiao Rong went to war, the Emperor appointed Xiao Rong as General Weiwu. Because Xiao Rong's father was also a general, people called him General Xiao.
Li Xiuwan's words were full of jealousy. Even though they were far away, they could smell the unpleasant smell.
Jiujiu glanced at Li Xiuwan and asked, "Why can't I like Xiao Rong?"
Xiao Rong was born in a good family and he was already a general at a young age. If the Xiongnu people were driven out of our country, his status would be even higher. Such a man was the ideal son-in-law. As long as one was not blind, one would like Xiao Rong.
Moreover, she didn't like Xiao Rong because of his future status. She fell in love with Xiao Rong when she didn't know what Xiao Rong's future would be. She was much more sincere than Li Xiuwan.
Jiujiu looked at Li Xiuwan's distorted face and decided to add fuel to the fire, "Before Xiao Rong went to war, he told me that he would marry me when he came back.
In fact, before Xiao Rong left, I was going to ask the Emperor to grant us a marriage. However, Xiao Rong was worried that others would gossip about him if he only relied on his status as an elder. So, he didn't ask for the Emperor's permission. He wanted to ask for my hand in marriage after he became successful.
Although the two of us are not engaged yet, Xiao Rong and I are already engaged. "
Jiujiu finished and looked at Li Xiuwan, "Miss Li, you just said that you 'also' like Xiao Rong. I think you must like Xiao Rong as much as I do.
Miss Li, you don't know that I was born in the countryside. I only have one parent in my life. I am familiar with Xiao Rong and I am fascinated by him. I don't care about others. I can only have one husband in my life.
If you like Xiao Rong, I advise you to like someone else as soon as possible because Xiao Rong will only marry me in his life. I'm afraid I will let you down. "
No matter how jealous they were at home, those noble ladies in the capital always flaunted how virtuous they were.
Li Xiuwan's mother was like that. She hated her husband's concubines, but she always pretended that she was the legal wife and they were all concubines. She had to be virtuous and magnanimous and didn't want to lower herself to their level.
Li Xiuwan was influenced by what she heard and saw, so she imitated her mother's pretense completely.
When Li Xiuwan was with her cousin, even if she hated his concubines, she always pretended that she was the legal wife and didn't want to lower herself to their level.
When the fire came, she wanted to make a fuss about it, but her cousin's heart was gone. Even if she wanted to make a fuss, she couldn't make a fuss about it.
At this moment, Jiujiu bluntly said her jealousy, her pettiness, and her hostility to Li Xiuwan. Li Xiuwan was stunned for a moment. When she came to her senses, she said, "How can you be so jealous of Xiao Rong?"
Yes, in Li Xiuwan's opinion, no matter how unhappy you were in your heart, you had to be magnanimous on the surface.
What's more, a man with a little ability would want to marry a concubine, not to mention a man with ability like Xiao Rong.
Wasn't it normal for Xiao Rong to have three wives and four concubines?
Even if Xiao Rong agreed, would Princess Royal Jiarong agree?
In response to Li Xiuwan's question, Jiujiu sneered, "I know what you're thinking. I'm so jealous that I can't tolerate other people. Would Princess Royal Jiarong agree?
I'll tell you the truth. Not only did Xiao Rong agree, but Princess Royal Jiarong also agreed. "
Jiujiu glanced at Li Xiuwan.
Li Xiuwan's thoughts were purely gauging the heart of a gentleman with the yardstick of a villain.
Princess Royal Jiarong and the General would be a couple for the rest of their lives.
Although she didn't say it directly, in her heart, she hoped that her child would be the same as her.
And she really liked Jiujiu. The Emperor and the Empress Dowager had seen Jiujiu and praised her. Such a good girl, even if there was only one person in her life, it was worth it.
Not to mention that Xiao Rong was willing to make progress for Jiujiu. For Princess Royal Jiarong, this was more useful than marrying eight or ten wives. What reason did she have to not agree?
Of course, if the person Xiao Rong wanted for the rest of his life was Li Xiuwan, Princess Royal Jiarong would take the initiative to fill Xiao Rong's room with eight or ten wives without Xiao Rong saying anything.
Li Xiuwan's father had three wives and four concubines. In her last life, she married her cousin. Her cousin promised to marry her for the rest of their lives. As a result, when she was pregnant, she couldn't wait to fill the room. Not to mention that her cousin had several mistresses outside when she didn't know.
