Chapter 300: The Imperial Concubine is Pure and Elegant (Forty-nine)

Whenever Madam Cui attended flower viewing parties or poetry gatherings, her clothes, jewelry, and hairstyles were imitated by other beauty-conscious ladies. Whenever the largest jewelry and clothing stores in Liangdu released new products, they would give them to Madam Cui as a gift or sell them at half price, all for the sake of her brand name.

What’s even more amazing is that many ladies love to interact with her, saying that they can eat an extra bowl of rice with such a beauty sitting next to them.

The young ladies treated her like sisters and every time they attended a banquet, they would bring home a bunch of gifts, all given by those ladies.

Those young girls in their prime also secretly learned Mrs. Cui's manners.

She was born into the aristocratic Wang family and married into the Cui family. The family had a deep foundation and was very good at beauty and skin care.

Now she is 38 years old, but she has been well maintained and looks only 25 years old. When she stands with Cui Li, they don't look like mother and daughter at all, but rather sisters.

Wang Dameiren's daughter Cui Li lived up to everyone's expectations. She was more beautiful than her mother and when she came of age, she became a fairy that dazzled everyone as soon as she appeared.

Mother Cui felt very proud as she looked at her daughter who was becoming more and more radiant. Her daughter always picked on the good looks of her and her husband. Now that her face was revealed, she was even more attractive.

The last time we met, the melancholy between her eyebrows diluted some of her beauty. Now her eyebrows and eyes are bright and lively, and her every move reveals calmness and elegance. No one can help but be moved by her. She is worthy of being her daughter.

"Alas, Li'er is so dazzling, she deserves to be seen by everyone. It's a pity that you can't attend the birthday banquet today."

Mrs. Cui felt the regret of having a treasure and wanting to show it off, but being unable to do so.

However, she only felt regretful for a moment, and quickly added, "Your Majesty, this is all for your own good. Every time there's a banquet, we never dare to really relax. In the past, it was always one girl falling into the water, another girl having diarrhea, or even just catching an adulterer. It's fine to watch the show, but if you become involved, that's really unlucky."

Cui Li: "Haha, mother, there's no pond near the Dragon Harmony Hall, so don't worry about falling into the water. Besides, who would dare to plot against others at His Majesty's birthday banquet? If they were discovered, His Majesty would not let them off lightly."

Mother Cui tapped her daughter's nose and said with a smile, "You clever little thing. It's okay if you don't go to the birthday banquet. Those concubines all have their own ulterior motives. Who wouldn't want to have a prince? If they knew you were pregnant, wouldn't they be envious to death? And what if you met a madman who was desperate to push you away? What would you do then?"

Cui Li: "Concubine? Isn't I the only one His Majesty has? I asked him, and he said that for my sake, he is willing to not hold a general election or take a concubine, and just stay with me. Mother, is he lying to me, and does he have other concubines?"

Cui Li pursed her red lips, her eyes were slightly red, and she looked at Mrs. Cui with tearful eyes in a dependent manner.

Mother Cui suppressed her shock and quickly said, "I mean, most of those concubines are childless, so they can't follow the prince out of the palace to build a mansion and live out their days in peace. They are very jealous of the concubines who have children. You are now a double, so you must be careful."

Cui Li: "Is that so? Is it really me alone, Your Majesty? I always feel weird sometimes. I have lost my memory, and now I am pregnant and it is inconvenient for me to leave Chengqian Palace. My daughter is afraid that he will find a new love, so she is just lying to me and playing tricks on me. Otherwise... shall I go to Longhe Palace tonight? Brother Sheng needs someone to accompany him at such an important moment!"

Mrs. Cui felt a lump in her throat. With so many concubines accompanying Liang Sheng, why did she need Li'er to accompany him?

"Don't worry, Li'er. His Majesty only loves you. Not to mention that there are no other concubines now, even if there were three thousand concubines in the harem, His Majesty would only love you. As for Longhe Palace, don't go there. Your aunt also told me to stay with you and not to wander around."

Cui's mother felt disgusted and had goosebumps when she said these words against her will.

I don’t know what Liang Sheng is up to. How dare he lie to Li’er who has lost her memory!
