"Come here."
Zhao Qinglan beckoned to Su Jinpa.
Su Jinpa was taken aback upon hearing this, but she quickly recovered. She stood up and went before Zhao Qinglan, performing a kneeling obeisance according to etiquette. "Jinpa listens respectfully to the Empress' teachings."
Li Chen looked at Zhao Qinglan and Su Jinpan, feeling that these two women, who were actually not very different in age, had truly absorbed all the spirit of Beijing.
All women, regardless of their beauty, are essentially characterized by fair skin, delicate features, and a well-proportioned figure. Having one of these traits makes someone considered beautiful, while possessing two would make her a rare beauty.
Such a woman who possesses all three qualities, being top-tier in each, and also has an unparalleled temperament is truly rare to find.
On the contrary, Zhao Qinglan, Su Jinpa, and Gong Huiyu are as well.
Now Li Chen feels that his standards have been raised, and he can't see ordinary women anymore.
"It's not really any kind of lesson, just a few words to you."
Zhao Qinglan's voice was soft, her eyes gazing at Su Jinpa before her. Her expression was serene and peaceful, yet no one could discern the complexity hidden within her heart.
To some extent, her fate mirrored that of Su Jinping's.
Being born into a noble family, she was the daughter of the Grand Secretary, the head of civil officials.
And Su Jinpa, the daughter of the God of War, the foremost general.
Their noble birth decreed that they could not have their own love stories, and it also sealed their similar destinies.
But they are similar, yet entirely different.
She married the emperor, but they were close to two generations apart in age. They barely spoke to each other, let alone felt any affection.
But Su Jinpa's luck was much better than hers.
At least she could tell that Li Chen cared about Su Jinpa.
"When a woman gets married, she becomes a wife. For ordinary women, after marriage they should manage household chores. Men go out to work hard, while women take care of the family and have children as their duty."
"But you and I are the princess-consorts, so our tasks are much heavier than ordinary women's. But the core is actually just these two points. Firstly, to give birth to children and spread branches for the royal family, and secondly, to take good care of the harem, so that the affairs of the harem don't trouble the imperial court. This is the most important."
Su Jin paused for a moment and then continued, "The prince already has a consort, but you were previously the crown princess. You'll be senior to her, and there will be many more women entering the prince's harem in the future. So, you need to be mentally prepared for this."
Su Jinpa lowered her head slightly. Her snowy neck was as elegant as a swan. She looked calm and said softly, "Jinpa knows."
With a nod, Zhao Qinglan said: "To put it simply, the most important thing is for husband and wife to get along. Your husband is different from ordinary people. He is the Crown Prince, the heir apparent of the Great Qin Empire. He is destined to devote more of his energy to the country and its people, and you, by marrying him, have become a bird in a cage."
"Whether you like it or not, the situation has come to this. You must adjust your mindset. Even if he takes many concubines in the future, they will only be concubines. You alone will be his wife and the future empress of this nation. Since destiny has chosen you to rule over the land, then you must give up worldly pleasures."
"Saying that, Zhao Qinglan took a phoenix hairpin from her head and handed it to Su Jinping, saying softly, “This hairpin is the one I wore before entering the palace. I liked it the most. Today, I give it to you as a keepsake. Please accept it.” "
This gift is irresistible.
Su Jinpa knew propriety, so she took the items with both hands and thanked her: "Jinpa thanks the Empress."s has reached a breaking point.Yelü Shenxuan had achieved his goal.Li Chen's goal was also achieved.In the city lord's mansion, Li Chen sat in the council hall, closing his eyes in deep thought.Wu Ban...
