As for why Tao Mingqing is so eager to make a name for himself, even if Su Yuxin hasn't asked Tao Mingqing, Su Yuxin can see the reason clearly.
Knowing the reason makes Su Yuxin somewhat sympathetic towards Tao Mingqing.
Unlike their family, they don't have Commons Sons, and can't feel the gap between Commons Sons and legitimate children.
But Tao Mingqing was born as a Commons Son, bearing this identity and looked down upon by others.
Luckily, her grandparents did not attach too much importance to the legitimate and commons distinction, influencing her father and even affecting her Emperor uncle to not emphasize it so much anymore...
And she firmly believes that one day, the difference between legitimate and commons will become smaller and smaller.
Just like before, girls couldn't show their faces outside, but now things are different; not only can girls show their faces, they can also take part in the imperial exams, go to the military, and more.
