The Dreamer in the Spring Boudoir

Chapter 131: Competing for my husband and lord's heart

Nie Sangyu's mother had been a vixen, and she had given birth to another vixen, Nie Sangyu. This is what her own mother had been telling her since she was a child. Even though Nie Sangyu's biological mother was her mother's older sister, her mother had always hated her older sister for an unknown reason.

For now, she wouldn't concern herself with grudges of the previous generation. Right now, she was in Marquis Moyu's estate and had to figure out a way to change her fortune despite Nie Sangyu oppressing her.

"Older sister Wan-er, Chenyu has something she needs your help with." Nie Chenyu turn her body to face Wen Wan. Holding Wen Wan's hand in hers and slowly swing it back and forth, she asked, "Older sister Wan-er, can you give younger sister a chance the next time Marquis Moyu comes to Qiangwei Courtyard?"

A chance? Wen Wan's inwardly felt slightly displeased, but Nie Chenyu had always been coming over here and cajoling her into improving her mood. Nie Chenyu was a sweet-talker that knew how to pander. Although she was a member of Nie Clan, her position wasn't as firm as Nie Sangyu.

After considering it over, Wen Wan smiled and said, "If you want to compete for the marquis's favor, I can naturally help you. I know best what type of woman the marquis likes. But, how will you repay me?"

Nie Chenyu's eyes brightened. Overjoyed, she asked, "Older sister, how do you want me to repay you?"

She hadn't made the wrong decision in following after Wen Wan. If she had followed the imperial noble consort's instruction of being loyal to Nie Sangyu, she would have no hope of being favored by the marquis. Inwardly feeling very happy, she impatiently waited for Wen Wan to answer.

Wen Wan pretended to contemplate for a while, then she smiled and said, "I'm really curious about Madam's past. Since there's nothing better to do in the estate, tell me about Madam's past. If you do, I guarantee that the marquis will favor you more than once."

This was quite simple, ah. Nie Chenyu giggled and said, "Older sister you truly care about young sister. You won't put younger sister in a difficult spot. I know information that can be used against Nie Sangyu. Once the marquis favors me, younger sister will tell older sister anything that you want to know."

A trace of disdain flashed through Wen Wan's eyes, but she was still smiling as she said, "Alright."

By chance, Marquis Moyu came over to Qiangwei Courtyard that night. He had originally been a bit tired and just wanted to say a few words to Wen Wan before sleeping. But, when he pushed open the doors and entered the room, it was pitch-black.

There was the fragrance of burning incense in the room, and the mood was very good. A beam of moonlight came through the window, and he could faintly see a figure flipping her hand on the red silk sheet to expose her beautiful skin that had been hidden.

A woman's voice murmured, "My Lord -- "

Ning Yuxuan wasn't a man that practiced asceticism. All of the women in this household belonged to him, so there wasn't any reason why he couldn't sleep with a specific one. Still, he felt slightly cranky. He had come here to look for Wen Wan, but she had pushed another women to him.

Although he knew that the woman on the bed wasn't Wen Wan, he still favored her. He appreciated clever women, but he had never appreciated a smart aleck. If she wanted to play with him, then there wouldn't be a way for her fix things once she started regretting her choices.

After one night of entanglement, Nie Chenyu felt as if her waist was going to snap apart. The next day, when the sun was already high in the sky, she still hadn't awakened and was drowsily asleep in Wen Wan's bed.
