Chapter 804 Self-Knowledge

When she was in the boudoir, Fang Ximei knew that she was ordinary.

The reason she was able to marry Jin Lan and have this enviable marriage was because her father was Mr. Jin's favorite disciple, and she was the only prostitute in the family.

Besides, she knew that she was not worthy of Jin Lan at all.

Before entering the door, she had already made preparations. As long as her husband's family could give her the minimum respect and face, she would not expect anything else.

After seeing Hongdou's astonishing beauty, she felt even more inferior.

She knew she was not good-looking, but...

Women are the ones who please themselves.

She really puts a lot of effort into dressing up.

Fang Ximei was in the room, crying and washing off the heavy makeup on her face, and changed into a brocade blue jacket and skirt in a steady color.

She didn't dare to stay in the room too long, lest Jin Lan get impatient and leave.

When he came out, his eyes were still red.

When Jin Lan saw it, she felt a little guilty, and said, "In fact, everyone is different. Although red beans are beautiful, you have your own advantages, so there is no need to compare with others."

When Fang Ximei saw his handsome appearance, she spoke softly, and the feeling of grievance in her heart had already flown to the sky.

She smiled shyly: "It's all due to my lack of self-knowledge, which made my husband laugh."

"It doesn't matter, it's good if you are so simple and dignified." Jin Lan said with a smile, "Let's eat."

"Yeah." Fang Ximei's heart was full of joy.

An Jing finished dinner, although Fang Ximei was shy, she suppressed her embarrassment and asked, "Master, will you stay tonight?"

Jin Lan glanced at her face, although she knew that she was responsible for her, but...

At this moment, all he could think about was Hongdou, and he was not interested in Fang Ximei at all.

"I'm a little tired tonight, so come back another day." Jin Lan stood up and said.

Fang Ximei was disappointed, but still respectfully said: "Master, rest more, don't tire yourself out."

"I know, you also rest earlier."

Jin Lan left with his entourage.

He went directly to Hongdou's house, Hongdou had already returned, and was sitting at the table alone, drinking tea and reading a book.

Although she is plainly dressed, just a simple silhouette is already exciting.

Jin Lan walked over, gently stroked her back, and asked with a smile, "What book are you reading, have you eaten yet?"

"I used it at my mother's place." Hongdou said softly without raising her head.

Seeing that she was reading a collection of poems, Jin Lan couldn't help laughing and said, "So you read this too."

Hongdou said indifferently: "It's nothing, I used to see my mother look through it, and I have nothing to do, so I also looked through it, so that when my mother wants to talk to people, no one can talk to me."

Jin Lan smiled and said, "You are really touching to the empress."

"Because the empress is kind to me." Hongdou asked him, "Aren't you going to spend the night there tonight?"

"I still miss you." Jin Lan immediately sat next to her and sighed, "Now I finally understand the emperor's troubles."

Hongdou curled the corner of her mouth, showing a bit of disdain.

Jin Lan saw it, and said with a gentle smile: "You, you always follow the empress, and imitate her temperament. There are no rules, but the emperor only cares about her..."

"Have you talked enough?" Hongdou closed the book and said in a cold voice, "I said before, let's live life, don't mix up the Empress Empress. It's true that Empress is good to me. Am I qualified to persuade Empress? Let her allow Concubine Jing to have a baby?"
