Concubine of the Prime Minister

Chapter 26 Mother's Worries

"By the way, what's the matter with Mother looking for me?" Gently turning the emerald ring inlaid with rubies on the index finger of her right hand, her tone was light and indifferent, as if casually, and she couldn't tell what was going on in her heart at all. .

After Mengdie's question, San Yiniang suddenly remembered the purpose of today, and eagerly took Mengdie's hand and asked: "Die'er, I heard from your father that there will be a banquet in the mansion on February [-]nd, he... ...did he say anything to you?"

Thinking of the meaning revealed in Prime Minister Zuo's words, San Yiniang couldn't help becoming worried. As a mother, she certainly hoped that her daughter would marry well and have a good future. This coincided with Prime Minister Zuo's thoughts. It's just that the starting points of the two are completely different, and San Yiniang is naturally very clear about this, and this is exactly what she is worried about.She was afraid that Prime Minister Zuo would disregard her daughter's happiness for some of her own purposes, and she was afraid that her daughter would be wronged. Since learning about Prime Minister Zuo's thoughts, San Yiniang has always been disturbed, so she couldn't wait to find her this morning. Mengdie, I want to hear her thoughts.

"Mother, do you know something?" The tone was still light, and there was no fluctuation on the face, but only she knew in her heart how nervous she was at the moment.

The third aunt smiled helplessly and said: "Die'er is also 15 years old. Girls at this age should discuss marriage... My Die'er is so beautiful and intelligent. I believe that people who come to propose marriage in the future should treat us The threshold of the family has been broken, and mother really hopes that Die Er can find a good husband and live happily ever after, but...your father..."

"Marriage is a major matter, the words of the matchmaker ordered by the parents." Meng Die interrupted San Yiniang's words lightly, with a docile and respectful attitude on her beautiful little face, completely like a well-behaved and obedient little girl.

"This time your father even sent a post to several princes, and even hinted that I will help you dress up well, which is bound to surprise you in the audience. Do you know what this means?" Third Aunt anxiously looked at the girl with low eyebrows and pleasing eyes. Mengdie held her hand more vigorously, and the worry in her eyes did not seem to be fake.Although she is just a woman, she doesn't understand the changes in the court, but she also knows a word - once you enter the palace gate, it's as deep as the sea!

Feeling the concern and love from the third aunt from the bottom of her heart, Mengdie couldn't bear to treat her indifferently anymore, and said softly: "Mother, don't forget, I'm just a concubine, and the one I like must be the dragon among men." , this matter is not what he thinks he can do.”

San Yiniang shook her head with a wry smile, and murmured: "Die'er, you don't know how attractive your appearance is to men... Although you are a concubine, but with your appearance, you can be a concubine." The concubine is not a problem, presumably your father had the same idea..."

Hearing this, Mengdie couldn't help sneering secretly.Side room?According to her cheap father's thoughts, a mere concubine might not satisfy him, right?He is also a man, presumably he must understand more clearly than a woman what her appearance means to a man.If she guessed correctly, Prime Minister Zuo would definitely show his extraordinary love for her daughter in public on the day of the banquet, and tell others the status of her concubine daughter in his heart.

Everyone knows that the left side is very powerful, has held power for several years, and has disciples all over the government and the public. He is a pivotal figure in Longteng Kingdom.Now, because the emperor has never registered a crown prince, there are already countless turbulent waves hidden in the court, and many ministers have also divided into factions to support the only three princes of the emperor.However, the high-ranking Prime Minister Zuo didn't know why he never showed his position. Among the three princes, no one was partial to his side. It's gone.Therefore, as his daughter, she has already been labeled as a regime.

At this sensitive moment, didn't Prime Minister Zuo suddenly push Mengdie out just to send a signal to everyone?Mengdie's appearance is stunning, she is one of the few peerless beauties in the world, and she is extremely favored by the leftist. With these two points alone, who else can resist such a temptation?In the eyes of others, being able to become in-laws with the royal family, even if it's just a concubine, is already a great honor, but Mengdie knows that Prime Minister Zuo's ambition is far more than that.Presumably the reason why Zuo Xiangshe went to the other two daughters to choose Mengdie was because of her charming face, right?It is not difficult for a woman with a charming face to be backed by a powerful father behind her.

Thinking of this, Mengdie's heart became even colder, and a faint coldness flashed in her beautiful eyes.

"Die'er, what's wrong with you? Are you worried about your marriage? Don't worry, mother is useless, but this time, even if mother tries her best, she will never let your father sell you as a commodity!" See Mengdie remained silent for a long time, and San Yiniang thought that Mengdie was worried about her marriage because she had learned of Zuoxiang's intentions, so she felt a twinge in her heart, and anxiously said such "rebellious" words.

San Yiniang's words brought Mengdie's thoughts back to reality, and the chill disappeared, replaced by deep warmth and emotion.As a pure ancient woman, she has received the education of "regarding her husband as heaven" since she was a child. It is really commendable to be able to say such a thing now. This shows how important the daughter Wu Mengdie occupies in her heart .

"Mother, aren't you afraid you'll offend daddy because of this? Now that you've finally won back daddy's favor, if it's because of me..."

"Silly girl, mother has lived for most of her life, and she has long looked down upon it. This life is just like this, but you are still young, and there is still a way out. At this age, mother has no other expectations. You She is my only daughter, she is my mother's darling, and my mother's greatest wish is that you can find a man who truly loves you and live happily ever after. If you can really get what you want, even if it takes my life, I will be willing!"

Recalling her tragic life, Third Auntie couldn't help but shed desolate tears. If it wasn't because she couldn't worry about her daughter, how could she have the courage to live on?She loves her husband deeply and yearns for his love, but if all of this is based on hurting her daughter, then she would rather not!As a woman, especially a woman who has been hurt by love, she deeply understands how important it is to marry a husband who truly loves her.
