The four young women were led by palace maids to two adjacent side rooms, each already prepared with tea by the palace maids.
As for who was assigned to which room, it turned out to be quite simple: the Princess of Jing shared a room with Dong Gong Ruoshu, while Yin Tingxue shared a room with Lin Wanxiao.
Yin Tingxue held the teacup in her hands and studied the slightly reserved Lin Family Young Lady before her, silently pondering:
Isn't this wife pairing with wife, and concubine pairing with concubine?
Though Chen Yi had mentioned wanting to take her as his wife back then, the little fox sometimes fantasized about being the mistress of the house, but deep down, she never truly believed she would become a proper wife.
Even though being a "wife of equal standing" sounded much better, with a status significantly higher, compared to a proper wife, it was essentially just another form of concubine.
