The peasant girl who escaped the desert: she cried when she found the cruel prince

Chapter 387 Everyone bullies others
Concubine Ruan was as dissatisfied as Mrs. Jing. She sat in the temporary house and looked around, feeling dissatisfied everywhere.

This is the annex of Du Zhong, the governor of Yizhou. Although the interior decoration is not as luxurious as the palace in Chang'an, it is not too bad.

It's just that the Shu land is damp and cold, and there is no habit of burning the earth dragon, which makes Concubine Ruan very uncomfortable with it, who has always spent the harsh winter in the warmth.

The personal maid came in and said: "Your Majesty, Princess Xiushan is very dissatisfied with the accommodation arranged and is pestering Your Highness!"

Concubine Ruan suddenly couldn't suppress her anger: "She is not satisfied? I am very dissatisfied. What can I do?"

"Go and tell His Highness. If she is not satisfied, let her live in the house assigned to the Jing family. If she is not satisfied, let her go back to Chang'an by herself or find her good daughter. Isn't her Yang Shiyue following her? The bandit leader of the White Lotus Army?"

Just as the eldest maid was about to go out, Concubine Ruan thought of her son's soft and good temper and called her back: "Forget it, you'd better invite King Wei over first, and I'll talk to him!"

Tantai Yuheng, who had just returned from the banquet at the Eucommia family, was invited to the palace.

"Mother Concubine!" Tantai Yuheng, who had just drank some wine, was a little sloppy in his steps. With the help of the palace servants, he reluctantly sat up straight: "You called your son over, but is there something wrong?"

Seeing him like this, Concubine Ruan became even more impatient: "Heng'er, this is Yizhou. Now the attitude of Eucommia is unclear, and the old guy doesn't know whether he is alive or dead. Tantai Yulie will come to kill him sooner or later. How can you still think about drinking? ?”

Tantai Yuheng let out a wine burp: "Ugh! Mother and concubine, my son doesn't want it either. It's just a new arrival. We don't have many troops on hand, so we have to borrow Eucommia ulmoides!"

Concubine Ruan knew that her son was telling the truth. This was the embarrassing situation of not leading the army. She knew that all forces were ready to take action, but she had no choice but to do anything.

The only one available around him was the title of the old emperor, but on the one hand, he was worried that the old man would die too quickly, causing Du Zhong and others to look down on Tantai Yuheng and switch to others.

On the one hand, he was worried that the old thing would wake up and kill the mother and son.

Finally, he sighed helplessly: "Euzhong invited you to go, but did you say anything?"

Tantai Yuheng's rosy face, which was originally drunk, became a little ugly: "His hidden meaning is that he wants me to marry his girl!"

"Bah!" Ruan Guifei was furious: "Who is he? He is just a governor, but he actually wants to become the head of the country in one step. He really doesn't take our royal family seriously!"

Tantai Yuheng leaned back on the Taishi chair: "But what if we don't marry his girl now? We don't have real power. Once our father dies of illness, can the second brother and the emperor let us go?"

Concubine Ruan was speechless for a while, and then she asked after a long time: "Have you discussed this matter with Mr. Xiao?"

Tantai Yuheng's face became even more ugly: "Master Xiao, he also wants me to marry his niece!"

Concubine Ruan was so angry that she threw the tea cup to the ground: "Everyone, it seems that our mother and son are easy to bully. Even with his Xiao Lianxi's bad reputation, he has the nerve to let us marry his niece. !”

Tantai Yuheng also felt uncomfortable. He knew Xiao Lianyun. If he had been asked to marry Xiao Lianyun before Xiao Lianxi's accident, he would have been willing. After all, the Xiao family daughter was from a good background and her maternal grandfather's family was well-known. Cui family of Qinghe.

But Xiao Lianxi later actually got together with the old emperor, which made him feel as sick as eating a fly, so naturally he didn't want to marry Xiao Lianyun.

"Huh! If he doesn't want to marry, he has to marry him!" Xiao Zhizong snorted coldly.

Mrs. Xiao Er said displeasedly: "Since I am going to marry His Highness Prince Wei, why must it be that damn girl Xiao Lianyun? Isn't our Lianxin pretty good too?"

"Confused!" Xiao Zhizong scolded: "Our Lian Yue married the King of Hejian. If Lian Xin married the King of Wei, what do you want the King of Hejian to think?" "Now, except for the emperor standing next to the King of Wei, there are no other people. She has no merit at all, it’s like a useless move, if she marries Lianxin to him and suffers the jealousy of the King of Hejian, wouldn’t it be worth the loss!”

"But it will be different if Lian Yun marries him. Either he or she is my biological child, or if the King of Hejian is to blame, Lian Yue's cleverness can be blamed on Dafang!"

Now Eucommia ulmoides is interested in winning over the King of Wei. It seems that it wants to support the King of Wei after the old emperor passes away. After all, the emperor is around, so it is very convenient to do anything.

He could bring out a niece, and then sit on the mountain and watch the tiger fight, just to see which side has a greater chance of winning. According to King Wei's temperament, if it is King Wei who finally ascends to the high position, he can completely control the government.

When Xiao Zhizong said this, Mrs. Xiao Er understood the truth and went to persuade her daughter Xiao Lianxin.

Poor Xiao Lianyun only dreamed of becoming a princess like her sister. Now her mother told her that in order to avoid suspicion, she would rather help Xiao Lianyun marry into the Palace of Wei than let her marry.

He couldn't let go of this tone, so he turned around and ran to Xiao Lianyun's room, where he was ridiculed in an angry manner.

The Xiao family had just settled down, and the courtyard was extremely crowded. Several sisters were crowded into the same courtyard. Xiao Lianyun, who had already heard about it, heard what Xiao Lianxin said, and her previous guess was confirmed.

"Brother, this is too much for my second uncle. My mother died of illness on the road and I can't go back to my hometown to be buried. Now that I'm here in Shu and can't be settled, how can he talk about my marriage?" Xiao Lianyunhong! Focus on talking to your eldest brother Xiao Yifeng.

Xiao Yifeng clenched his fists. He couldn't protect his eldest sister, so now he had to watch his second sister being used as a chess piece?
"Brother, why don't we go talk to our father and ask him to persuade his second uncle to stop thinking about this?" Xiao Lianyun said anxiously.

Disappointment flashed in Xiao Yifeng's eyes: "No need to go to father, don't mention it to anyone, just pretend you never knew about it!"

"But" Xiao Lianyun said anxiously, why don't you let your second uncle arrange it?

Xiao Yifeng interrupted her sister: "Ayun, you believe in brother, he will not let anything happen to you!"

On the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, Mrs. Jing, who had been looking forward to her son finding a good place to live again, finally met Jing Boan.

"What? What did you say?" Mrs. Jing's eyes were filled with disbelief: "Did you ask someone to remove you from the position of general?"

The drunk Jing Boan muttered: "Yes, are you satisfied?"

"You can't see me well. You've been like this since you were a child. You only see the eldest and the third child. It's like I was picked up."

"Finally, I'm living a better life. You guys are like blood-sucking leeches, just clinging to me. Sure enough, I can live a wonderful life without you, just like my days in the early years and Su's life now. , how wonderful my life would be without your miserable family members!"

Jing Bo'an cried while talking. He really regretted it. What a virtuous person the Su family was, and those two children.

Mrs. Jing pursed her lips: "No, second brother, how can you blame us all?"

She wanted to scold her son, but before she could open her mouth, Jing Song came back with a depressed look on his face.

Mrs. Jing didn't care about scolding her son. She turned around and asked her grandson with concern: "A Song, why are you back?"

"But the princess has arranged another place for us to stay?"
