299: Section 299
"Aren't you going to introduce the new sisters to us?"
After venting her deep longing for him, Xiao Moran lifted her head.
She looked at the stunning beauties stepping down from the other carriages.
"The Prince is truly excessive; after not seeing you for so long, you've brought back so many beauties all at once!"
Ye Liuli's small face was full of indignation.
Each of these women was more beautiful than the last.
From now on, where would there be any standing for a little one like her?
Seeing Pei Nanzhi and the others walking over, the Cold Fairy, Dan Ruyan, also felt a hint of tension in her eyes.
She was never one to compete.
With such stunning beauties present, wouldn't her chances of receiving rewards from the Prince in the future be even fewer?
"Haha!"
"Let's go into the residence first."
"It was not easy for this Prince to return; you wouldn't deny me entry, would you?"
Cao Yang hugged the three of them.
He smiled slightly.
"The Prince is quite right."
"It is we who were lacking in manners..."
Xiao Moran chuckled lightly.
She reluctantly released her hand from Cao Yang's embrace, then, assuming the demeanor of a head wife, welcomed Pei Nanzhi and the others into the residence.
Upon reaching the main hall, the women introduced themselves to one another, getting to know each other.
Pei Nanzhi and the others were not surprised that Cao Yang had several other women in the Prince of Anbeis Residence in the capital.
Come to think of it, they were the ones who had entered the residence first.
So, on the surface, they were extremely polite, returning courtesy with courtesy.
Everything appeared harmonious.
However—whether it was truly harmonious or just a facade, that, no one could say...
"Welcome, sisters."
"Since you have arrived at the Prince of Anbeis Residence, we are all family from now on."
"Being new to the capital, it is inevitable that you might face some inconveniences. If you need anything, feel free to ask Mo Ran for help."
Xiao Moran acted with grace and composure.
Looking at the newly arrived Pei Nanzhi and the others, she wore a gentle, smiling expression.
"That would be wonderful!"
"We shall thank Sister Mo Ran in advance then..."
Pei Nanzhi smiled.
She was older than Xiao Moran.
Calling her 'sister' was perfectly acceptable.
But she emphasized the word 'we'.
It was clearly meaningful...
"There is no need for such courtesy, Princess Consort."
Xiao Moran smiled enigmatically.
She enunciated the term 'Princess Consort' with great emphasis.
As for the 'Princess Consort' she referred to, was she speaking of the one in this Prince of Anbeis Residence, or the former Princess Consort of Zhenbei from Northern Liang?
All the women knew exactly what she meant.
This... is she trying to stir up trouble?
Smelling the gunpowder in the air, the women looked at each other.
And then! They immediately took sides...
In a moment, they split into the Capital Faction and the Northern Liang Faction.
In terms of numbers, the Northern Liang Faction clearly had the advantage.
There were six of them: Pei Nanzhi, Xu Hongyi, Xu Weixiong, Yu Youwei, Qingniao, and Jiang Li!
The Capital Faction, however, only had Xiao Moran, Ye Liuli, and Dan Ruyan.
Of course—if one were to add Hua Nongying, as well as the mother-daughter maidservant pair Liu Wen and Xu Qingyue, the numbers would be comparable.
Not far off!
However, compared to Xiao Moran and the others, Hua Nongying and Liu Wen could not exactly be considered Cao Yang's legitimate women, so their Aura was slightly weaker.
However... This was the capital, after all.
In terms of geographical advantage, the Capital Faction held a significant advantage!
For a moment, the women were at loggerheads.
Evenly matched!
Seeing that this massive Shura Field was about to erupt, Cao Yang did not intervene.
A Shura Field? This Cao was not someone who hadn't experienced it before.
The old rule—work a little harder, and just fill them all up...!
For several days straight, Cao Yang stayed within the residence, not stepping out the front gate or the second gate!
He doted on them one by one.
Pei Nanzhi and the others were fine.
During the month on the road back to the capital, they had spent every day together.
