Even if someone were to criticize her background, it would only be said that the Crown Prince has good taste, picking Gu Youyou from among so many people.
Such words would praise her, not demean her.
This made the Empress feel very uncomfortable.
If only she had known earlier how capable Gu Youyou was, she should have bestowed her upon her own son.
A humble background would at least have made her son appear very prestigious in the eyes of the common people.
Now that Gu Youyou has married into the Crown Prince Residence, she could only become an enemy to her.
Stuffing a few more maids into Jin Zijin's household to vex her seemed a fine choice when idle.
According to her years of experience, even the most elegant and noble women, once jealous over their husband's other women, would turn shrewish.
"Have those young ladies arrived?" The Empress asked with a dignified smile on her lips, like a kind and elderly relative.
