atypical prostitute

Chapter 71
Let's say Shangguan female Shi reluctantly walked out of the main hall with Li Ci.Although she saw that Fu Li's speech was not going well in every way, she didn't want to be honest, and decided to take the unhappiness and take her to visit the beautiful scenery of Zhaoyang Palace to show the friendship of the landlord.

The Zhaoyang Palace was originally a group of palaces with extremely beautiful scenery. What's more, after the women of the Changsha Palace moved in, they were ingeniously designed by Shangguan Nu Shi, adding many ingenious mechanisms that can be called the tricks of the gods, making them even more exquisite.

The most admirable among them is the Yaochi Wonderland transformed from Little Penglai.

Little Penglai is a beautiful place.Exquisite rocks are piled up into a clear and strange rockery standing in the middle of the water. The huge white lotus blooms gorgeously and lonely. Sometimes cranes pass by, standing in front of the pool without disturbing the dust, which makes people feel lonely and almost want to ride the wind away.After the female history of Shangguan lived in Zhaoyang Hall, she buried more than ten small structures in the water with ingenuity, called artificial fountains, and sprayed water regularly every day, drawing out rainbows.The copper pipes were buried underground, and the servants poured hot water into the copper pipes into the pool day and night.

Li Ci looked at Yaochi Wonderland for a while, and the mechanism was indeed fine, but all of this has nothing to do with Shangguan Nushi.Creativity is brought by her from the 21st century, and it is hundreds of skilled craftsmen in the Royal Inner Garden who turn these whimsical ideas into reality.

Shangguan Nushi was used to being looked at with reverence and even admiration by others. Seeing that Lici's face did not show the expected amazement and envy, she suddenly felt that Fu Lici's face became more and more odious.

But she knew that the king of Changsha treats the fourth wife of the Fu family unusually, so she could only suppress her unhappiness and said, "Is it still fancy?"

"Exquisite and incomparable, it's a pity that human beings can't compare with nature."

Li Ci commented indifferently that the pursuit of Chinese gardens is the natural taste, and Shangguan Nvshi bluntly moved Western elements into the oriental landscape, which would have been self-defeating if it weren't for the ingenuity of the craftsman.

What's more, in order to create the twilight of the fairyland, someone needs to pour hot water day and night, not to mention the waste of money and money, and the lake water is hot and cold, which also affects the lives of the koi.

But in this short period of time, Li Ci had already seen five or six innocent koi with white bellies.

What a crime.

Li Ci thought to himself, with a slight displeasure on his face.

Shangguan Nvshi saw all these expressions in her eyes, and she didn't say anything, so resentment inevitably arose in her heart, but she was concerned that Fu Lici had the eldest princess behind her, so she reluctantly said: "My lady has an elegant taste, which is unusual."

"Nvshi's words are serious. Lici's fate was very difficult since she was a child. She was taught by an expert. She knew that fortune is thin and fate is shallow, and that disasters can be resolved only by pity and good deeds. Therefore, after listening to Nvshi's explanation of the ingenuity, I knew that this beautiful scenery is so labor-intensive. I can't help feeling it."

Shangguan Nushi felt uncomfortable when she heard her scolding herself in a roundabout way. After a few smirks, she sarcastically said: "The lady is very fond of the eldest princess. It is too modest to underestimate herself like this."

"It's just that it's better than ordinary people to meet the eyes of the eldest princess. How can it be like a female history, with a bright future?"

Li Ci spoke in a positive and negative tone, shaking the palace fan in his hand, and out of the corner of his eye, he aimed at the intrigue of a pavilion: The eldest princess had done her homework with her beforehand, and the highest place of Zhaoyang Palace lived in "" The frail and sickly princess of Changsha.

Shangguan Nushi also noticed the deviation of her gaze, glanced in her direction, then retracted, with a smile on her face and said: "Thank you, Si Niangzi, for your kind words."

Seeing that the words of praise and derogation aroused the ambition of Shangguan Nu Shi, Li Ci couldn't help clicking his tongue, but pretended to be stupid, and said, "Why can't I understand what Nu Shi said?"

Shangguan Nushi was about to explain, but a sickly voice sounded behind her: "Si Niangzi is still young."

Li Ci hurriedly turned around, and saw a sick beauty like Lin's younger sister, her brows seemed to be frowning but not frowning, her eyes seemed to be happy but not happy, her tears were shining, she was panting slightly, she was dressed as a woman, and she was very weak.

Seeing the woman approaching, the Shangguan lady Shi stepped forward to salute with low eyebrows, and then retreated behind without saying a word.

Li Ci knew that the sick beauty was the princess of Changsha, so she hurriedly bowed her body to salute, but the princess of Changsha coughed and ordered the nanny to come forward to help her, saying: "Si Niangzi is not in good health, so there is no need for a big gift."

She coughed until her dimples turned red, and Li Ci couldn't help but said with concern: "Princess Wangfei is not feeling well, she should take a rest."

"How can I calm down. Ever since I entered the capital with the prince, I haven't been able to sleep peacefully for a day. I just felt that the room was stuffy and decided to go out for a stroll, but I didn't want to meet Fourth Lady."

Seeing that the princess is so skinny, Li Ci couldn't help but feel sorry for her and said: "The princess has a lot of coughing, most likely her heart and lungs are damaged. Autumn is the hottest day, so the princess should be more careful."

"The bones of this body are not so easy to throw away."

The princess of Changsha sighed faintly, looked at Li Ci, and said: "If I have a child, I'm afraid it will be as old as you."

"My concubine is blessed in the sky, she is protected by heaven and man, as long as she takes good care of her body, there will be good news."

Shangguan Nushi comforted her in a non-salty way, but Princess Changsha became more and more sad after hearing this.

"My body is clear to me. I will not be blessed to be a mother in this life. Now I just hope that someone's stomach can win and give birth to a son and a daughter for the prince. This huge family business cannot be left without an inheritance."

"Mother--"

Hearing the sad words of the princess, all the female officials who served her wept bitterly, and Shangguan female Shi even swore to the heavens: "If I am lucky enough to conceive the flesh and blood of the prince, I will definitely send him to the princess' knees."

"Your filial piety, I keep it in my heart. It's a pity that the prince follows the old rules. The concubine has not yet given birth, and he will not let the children below have children. Alas, I have advised the prince many times, but every time I can't speak to him. If I don't believe it Buddha, afraid of going to the [-]th hell, really wants to kill himself, so as not to be a sinner through the ages."

The princess of Changsha spoke softly yet dignifiedly, Shangguan's female history and other female officials were all crying, but Li Ci was a little inexplicable.

Generally speaking, in a well-behaved family, if the first wife has not yet given birth, they will not allow the children below to give birth, lest the eldest son of the concubine surpass the eldest son and cause trouble.But Changsha Palace also has such rules, but it is beyond Li Ci's expectation.

When Emperor Xuan was in power, the birth mother of the King of Changsha was only a noble concubine. It was not until the death of Emperor Xuan and the new emperor ascended the throne that she was promoted to the queen mother as the adoptive mother of the new emperor.In terms of name alone, the king of Changsha is a concubine.

Is it because you are a concubine that you are so particular about it?

Li Ci then thought that compared to trying to figure out the reason why Changsha Wang Zun's eldest son was reincarnated, the Changsha Princess who mentioned this kind of thing in front of strangers was even more strange.

Could it be that this fragile princess of Changsha is actually a scheming girl?
Ever since she knew that the harmony she was familiar with was an illusion, Li Ci would not underestimate anyone. If a wolf knew how to disguise itself as a sheep, let alone these old fritters that had been fried in oil for countless times?
No villain has the words "I am a villain" written on his face.

She is weak and unable to bear children, but she is firmly seated in the position of princess, which shows that this medicine jar should not be underestimated.

Immediately complimented: "One day the prince will understand the painstaking efforts of the princess."

Princess Changsha sighed when she heard the words, and said: "It's also my fault for not living up to myself and not being able to spread leaves for the prince. Since it is an acre of Susukina, I should have self-knowledge, how can I dominate the prince? In the backyard, I I like Shangguan female history the most, she has a good body, and she is familiar with all kinds of rare piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and I am relieved to have such a knowledgeable and interesting companion as her prince."

After being named and praised by the concubine, Shangguan Nv Shi hurriedly acted modestly, saying: "The concubine's words are serious."

"It's just telling the truth. It's a pity that although you are a good farmer, your background is a bit lower."

Although she was full of unhappiness when she was rewarded and belittled without a trace, Shangguan Nushi said obediently: "What your mother said is very true."

The concubine didn't bother to pay attention, and said directly to Li Ci: "Did the lord ever say that you look like someone?"

"Li Ci has only met the prince twice so far, and has never heard the prince mention this matter."

"That's what it looks like."

The princess spoke softly, because her voice was too weak, she couldn't tell whether it was joy or resentment.

Li Ci became fully alert, this princess, is she really as weak as she looks?
But the curiosity of wanting to know her life experience overwhelmed everything, and after several considerations, she couldn't help but said, "But I don't know if that person is still alive?"

"Spring and autumn are in full swing."

Princess Changsha spoke vaguely, and suddenly ordered the palace servants to retreat.

A nanny lingered and said: "It's windy here, and the servants are close at hand. If there is anything, I can take care of it in time."

But the princess said: "God's will is hard to disobey. If the sky wants to accept me, it will be impenetrable. How long can it be delayed? Don't retreat!"

The concubine always spoke softly and softly, but now her voice was sharp, the palace people were also taken aback, they hurriedly apologized repeatedly, retreated ten steps away, and watched from afar.

At this time, the small fountain in Penglai Fairyland is also about to erupt. Between the murmurs, water splashes like pearls and jade, and the sunlight refracts, creating a rainbow.

The concubine looked at it for a while, sighed, and said, "Your lady is curious about your life experience?"

She was so straightforward that she didn't expect that she taught Li Ci that she didn't know how to respond properly. After thinking over and over again, she said, "My name is already recorded in the Fu family tree."

"Genealogy is for the predecessors and future generations to see."

Princess Changsha smiled lightly, stretched out her arm like a reed stick, and stroked Li Ci's face.

The palm is slightly hot.

"If the prince can have you by his side, I will feel at ease."

"Why did Your Highness say such a thing?"

Li Ci's lips trembled for a while, she really couldn't figure out what kind of medicine was sold in Wang Hao's gourd.

True virtuousness, or false generosity?
The concubine, on the other hand, acted like a good wife and loving mother, with a loving face, and said: "Ms. Shi, Shangguan, is usually a bit domineering, but she is extremely intelligent and has wonderful ideas from time to time. She is an indispensable adviser to the prince. , so even if it seems that she is not going well, you have to give in. But this kind of tolerance is not endless, and when necessary, we must kill her prestige, lest she get too complacent and forget her identity. "

"Your Majesty, is this comforting me?"

Li Ci said it pretending to be innocent.

The princess then jokingly said: "Fourth lady, don't hide your clumsiness. Others don't understand the calculations in the back house. You have been taught by Shen Liji since childhood, so why don't you understand?"

Seeing her speak so bluntly, Li Ci had no choice but to bite the bullet and said, "I just don't understand why the princess is so confiding to me. It's the first time I have met the princess."

"As far as you are concerned, we really only met today. But this is only for you."

Is it—

These words were so ambiguous that Li Ci's heart beat with fright, and he swallowed again just as he started to speak.

Princess Changsha continued: "I was not favored by the lord, and I was unable to give birth to a son for the lord. Fortunately, the lord is a nostalgic, and I have some tricks, so I managed to get a piece of pure land under the eyes of those tigers. But the lord wants I have ascended the throne as the emperor, and the empress' dignity can be compared with that of a small concubine. I am afraid that no matter how careful I am, I will not be able to escape the secret schemes. Fortunately, I have run out of fuel and my time is approaching. No need to fight those green-eyed cocks."

"Your Highness is only a thousand years old, how can you say such depressing words?"

"Why does Si Niangzi say this to comfort others? There is no one who can live forever. Even for the sake of the prince's great cause, I should abdicate to let the virtuous."

Speaking of this, Princess Changsha had a weird smile on her blushing cheeks, and said, "You are the best candidate for Princess."

"Your Highness, Li Ci doesn't understand what you said."

The so-called being courteous without doing anything is either rape or stealing.Li Ci was flattered by Wang Hao's enthusiasm, but at the same time felt like walking on thin ice.

The concubine smiled and said: "I really hope that you can become the concubine, the queen in the future. It's just the involvement here, I can't talk about it right now. You just need to remember, I will not harm you."

As Li Ci listened, she became more and more confused.

The concubine said again: "You don't like Shangguan female history, tomorrow I will demote her as secretary."

After hearing these words, Li Ci was delighted, but also more worried.

Princess Changsha is really a powerful character.

However, being able to take the opportunity to ruthlessly step on the face of Mary Su, an official female history, really made Li Ci happy physically and mentally.
