As Shen Miao was walking, she was seriously looking at the lanterns and riddles on the streets. Shen Xin and the rest did not like to guess riddles because they were all rough people from military families, so how would they be able to settle down to guess such genteel things. Using Shen Qiu's words, "If Younger Sister likes that lantern, tomorrow Eldest Brother will go to the capital to find a master to carve the exact same one for you. Why waste so much effort?"
Shen Qiu was unable to understand the 'elegance' of Chen Rou Qiu and entourage. After Chen Rou Qiu and the rest finished guessing the lantern riddles and when they were walking forward, Wan YiNiang suddenly spoke to Shen Gui, "Master, one heard that there will be a Jade Rabbit Fairy dancing at the Wan Li Lake tonight. This year the Jade Rabbit lantern will also be placed at the lakeside, so let us go over there to take a look."
When Chen Rou Qiu heard it, she frowned and said softly, "That Jade Rabbit Fairy is from Bao Xiang Lou and one fear that it would not be good to bring along young ladies in our residence." What kind of place was Bao Xiang Lou? It was the biggest money squandering establishment in the Ding capital and the young ladies there were all warm and fragrant. How many men would abandon their wives and throw away a thousand gold just to sleep with the young ladies of Bao Xiang Lou. Mentioning Bao Xiang Lou, at least the main household would feel ashamed. However no matter how much those Furens and Furens despised it, it was unable to change the fact that the young ladies of Bao Xiang Lou were all talented. Thus this year's Jade Rabbit Fairy still fell to the young ladies of Bao Xiang Lou to act.
"Second Furen." Wan YiNiang softly said, "Even so, it is only an act. One think that in front of so many people, that Jade Rabbit Fairy would not do anything inappropriate and is only watching the bustle, so there is no need to be so serious." Wan YiNiang originally did not want to fight with Chen Rou Qiu but like Ren Wan Yun, she could not bear to see Chen Rou Qiu's aloof and virtuous appearance, always putting on the airs of a scholarly family. Compared to Ren Wan Yun, Wan YiNiang hated Chen Rou Qiu even more because she herself came from an opera troupe. Chen Rou Qiu suppressing that Bao Xiang Lou today was undoubtedly looking down on her style.
Both of their tit for tat was heard by everyone and in a moment the atmosphere became somewhat interesting. Males would not intervene in the dispute between females so Shen Dong Ling only held Wan YiNiang's hands and tightly shut her lips without speaking. Shen Yue had the heart to argue for Chen Rou Qiu but felt that it would be beneath her identity as a Di daughter thus no one spoke for a moment.
"Who said that going to the Wan Li Lake is to see the Jade Rabbit Fairy?" In the silence, Shen Miao spoke softly, "It is not everyday that one can see the grand occasion of tens of thousands of people releasing lanterns. Moreover, there was no choice whether one was born rich or poor. There was no need to look down on others because of that. No matter what her identity is, she is the Jade Rabbit Fairy today. A person with a clear heart, why should she care about these external things? "
Everyone was stunned for a moment. Shen Xin was the first to laugh, "Jiao Jiao is right. We have no choice but to be born rich and poor. What is the point of looking down on others?"
Luo Xue Yan also smiled. They were fighting on the battlefield. Some of the soldiers in the army were from the royal families, but most of them were commoners. Some of them couldn't even afford to eat, and some of the elders in their families were about to starve to death. When it came to their origins, they all had their own hardships. Thus they would never look down on the poor. Shen Miao's words were very much in line with both of their hearts.
"Younger Sister." Shen Qiu patted Shen Miao's shoulders, "Your tone is that of a great person who cares about the world. This kind of breadth of mind, even Eldest Brother is ashamed of my inferiority."
Even though she knew that Shen Qiu was teasing her, Shen Miao was slightly absent-minded. In the previous life, she married Fu Xiu Yi and became the Empress. Previously it was indeed because of love but as the Empress, the responsibilities that she bore were no less than others. The words' Motherly Model of the World 'meant that all the commoners could live and work in peace and contentment. The higher ups must love their own people. This was something that Fu Xiu Yi taught her, even though Fu Xiu Yi himself did not do it.
