Rebirth of the Phoenix Princess novel Chapter 903

All the ladies present were from noble families. They were familiar with all kinds of incenses and perfumed powders. But when they heard Yun Shang's words, they became interested.

Yun Shang smiled and clapped her hands. A woman in a moon-white robe slowly walked in with a tray in her hand. The woman's face was covered by the veil, but her slender and soft waist was enough to make other women envious. The woman's eyes were somewhat cold. She walked into the pavilion and bowed. Then she sat down at the table carved by the tree root in the pavilion and laid the tray on the table. In the tray, there were a few ice blocks, some glass, several pieces of aromatic substance, and a candle.

The woman took a piece of ice, melted it in her palm, and poured the water to a glass. Then she took a piece of aromatic substance, gently broke a small part from it and put it into the water melted by the ice.

After that, the woman took out the candle, lit it with a fire starter, and heat the glass on the candle.

After a short while, a delicate fragrance came out. It was like the smell of lotus, but it was a little colder than the lotus. It was like an elegant but cold beauty. However, this kind of coldness made people more curious about her and want to have a closer look.

"It's said a lady is like a flower. Before a man gets her, she is like snow lotus blooming on the snowy mountain, looking beautiful and a little bit aloof, and smelling fragrant. The men can't help but want to pick it." The woman's voice was as euphemistic and beautiful as the yellow warbler in March. The candlelight grew brighter, and the woman threw another small piece of aromatic substance into it. "When a man get the woman, she will be like an elegant peony raised in the backyard. It's dignified, gentle and generous, and the fragrance is getting stronger and stronger..."

As saying, the fragrance in the pavilion became stronger.

"If there is some refreshing plum blossom, enchanting evening primrose, or some elegant and beautiful lotus flower, then the peony will gradually make people feel vulgar."

Then, the water in the glass suddenly lit up, and all the fragrance gradually dimmed in an instant, leaving only a trace of the smell.

"Later, it might be burned out like this incense, leaving only a faint scent."

The woman bowed to the crowd and stepped aside.

No one spoke for a long time. Yun Shang smiled and said, "The banquet and the performance are arranged by me in person. I arranged this because His majesty always wanted to send women to the Crown Prince's mansion some time ago. It's said that women need to be virtuous and tolerant, not to mention that I'm the Crown Princess."

Yun Shang laughed coldly. "But I don't want to be tolerant. No woman wants to share her husband with other women. Even if people say that she is jealous, so what? A woman's happiness could only be grasped in her own hands. If a woman had to compromise, then how could others value her? How could others care about her feelings? I always believe that in this world, only the strong have the discourse power. And I'm not a good-tempered woman. It's impossible for anyone to put women around the Crown Prince." All the people present were legal wives in your households, but how many of your husbands don't have concubines? Yun Shang's remarks about them were embarrassingly close to home.

"Your Highness are right, but how could we be as bold as you? Besides, we don't have five hundred thousand soldiers behind us." Someone sighed and said slowly.

Hearing this, Yun Shang smiled, "None of you are born and raised in an ordinary family. But the most important thing for a woman is not to rely on the power of your parents' family. If a man wants to mess around with women, no matter how strong your parents are, it won't work much. Now that you have married, you can only rely on yourself to firmly hold your husband's heart in your hands."

"Men mess around with other women outside and marry some concubines just for some new fun. They think the flowers outside might smell better. But if you are always way much better than other women, how could they still go out for fun?" Yun Shang smiled with a beguiling smile on her face. "As for women, they should be as elegant as peony and as pure as snow lotus. The fragrance will be as strong as evening primrose at night."

"I haven't introduced the girl who showed us the incenses. Her name is Qing Han." Yun Shang said, all smiles.

The woman in moon-white stood up and took off the veil on her face, revealing an unparalleled elegant face. "Greatings, Your Ladyships. I'm Qing Han, a member of Mingfeng House."

As soon as the woman finished speaking, whispers were heard in the pavilion. Yun Shang smiled and said, "You are right. Mingfeng House is indeed a brothel. I have seen many noble ladies who feel disgusted when they heard others mention the brothel and think it is a shame to talk with anyone from a brothel. But, maybe Qing Han is just the kind of girl that your husband longs for but couldn't get."
