atypical prostitute

Chapter 74 Backlash
"She really said that?"

"It's true."

Just now, the old lady, who was in front of her with a gorgeous temperament, was standing beside the eldest princess, waiting for her to play chess with Jun Fengxi, and at the same time telling her.

Hearing that she answered affirmatively, the eldest princess fell silent, and the maids thought they had made a mistake, so they quickly held their breath and waited for a reply.

Who would have thought that the princess's long contemplation was not because she was annoyed by the old lady An Guogong's rude words.

She pinched the chess piece in her hands, carefully tested it many times, and finally settled on one, and said, "How about this one?"

"Slight progress, but it is difficult to become a master."

Jun Fengxi said lightly, and with a memorization, he resolved the coup that the eldest princess had finally come up with.

The eldest princess couldn't help frowning, and said: "Can't you let me once?"

"The game of chess is like the game of the world, how can you give up lightly? What's more, you are already in the mud, if you don't advance, you will lose."

Hearing this, the eldest princess nodded, and said: "Listen to what you said, and I suddenly understood." Then she turned her face and said to the female historian who was still waiting: "This old godmother is getting worse and worse because of her son's current power. Makes sense. Do you really think I dare not attack the Hua family!"

"Don't forget, Hua Jingrong is at best Qilang's watchdog!"

With a sneer, a trace of sharpness flashed in the depths of the eldest princess's charming eyes.

Nv Shi immediately understood what the eldest princess meant, said "servant understands", then bowed and retreated.

Seeing this, Jun Fengxi couldn't help but wryly smiled and said, "You really can't change your aggressive temperament."

"I never thought of changing it, how could it be changed."

The eldest princess smiled and said: "I didn't want to be as knowledgeable as her, but this old godmother is too ignorant. I treated her like nothing and ignored her, but she thought I was afraid of her and offended her everywhere."

"With your ability, it may be difficult to crush the entire An Guogong Mansion, but it is easy to destroy the pride of this old godmother."

Jun Fengxi said with a smile, and made a ruthless move.

"In this game of chess, you have been lying on the line for too long, so it's time to show your sword."

The eldest princess was pushed into a desperate situation by him, but she was not angry, and said with a smile: "You have seen the few hidden chess pieces that I have managed to hide."

"The king of Changsha said that he is not as good as me in the chess game, but I am not as good as him in other things. I have been immersed in the chessboard for many years. If you can't even see the princess's line, then you really have to blame the king of Changsha."

While speaking, the outcome of the chess game was decided, Jun Fengxi took out a cypress folding fan from his sleeve, unfolded it, and shook it lightly.

"You have been operating the game for 14 years. You have been cautious in every step, and you have built a ring. Up to now, it can be called an excellent chess game. But the game is dead, and people are alive. With the world as the game, you play unscrupulously. Are you really not afraid that one day, you will be bitten by Miaozi?"

The eldest princess remained silent.

Jun Fengxi said again: "Although the child's fate is extremely honorable, it is not good for the family. It is to restrain the father and the mother and restrain the son. At the same time, he has a cold nature. He will turn back in the future. Even if it is a relationship of flesh and blood, it will not escape the fate of destruction. "

The eldest princess smiled wryly, and said: "I knew that child's fate against father and mother and against child 14 years ago. If I didn't know the fate of this evil spirit, I wouldn't use her as a pawn."

"You—could it be..."

The eldest princess turned sideways, held on to the railing, looked at the palace floor in the distance, and said: "I, Xiao Yu, have never known what regret is. What's more, the chess game has been played to this day, and I have long been unable to allow me to retreat. If she can really rely on herself Jumping out of the chess game with my own strength, and even turning from a pawn into a chess player, is my own fault!"

Jun Fengxi sighed, and said: "Indeed, from the very beginning, you were the one who failed her. If she turns back on you one day, it's just to get back what she deserves."

……

……

The Red Musk House is located next to the Ningbi Pool. The white lotus in the pool is invincible all the year round, and it is first-class and elegant.

After sending away the naughty Mrs. An Guogong, a female official opened the window immediately, and the breeze wrapped in the lotus fragrance came blowing, blowing away the restlessness, mixed with the red sandalwood fragrance of the Red Musk House itself, making it even more serene and unparalleled.

Li Ci inhaled the aroma for a while, feeling relaxed and happy, and said, "There is such an unreasonable and unreasonable grandmother, the granddaughter-in-law of An Guogong's mansion, not everyone can be worthy of it."

Yu Jing also nodded again and again, and said: "Seeing Aunt Zeng's low eyebrows and pleasing eyes, I really feel pitiful. Anyway, it is a branch of Ningguo Duke's Mansion. Although it is far away, it can't be considered a big family, but the wife of the Zeng family can be regarded as one. You are educated and reasonable, and you are Xiaojiabiyu. Why are you willing to be a concubine in the An Guogong's mansion and suffer such abuses, rather than marrying an ordinary family to be a dignified mother?"

"People have their own aspirations, and they can't be forced. Xu Shi was confused by love for a while, thinking that he would marry a lover, so he was willing to be humble and obedient."

Li Ci said lightly, she actually knew very well in her heart that Aunt Zeng was willing to be a concubine, probably because of her status as Mrs. An Guogong.I thought that the eldest princess and An Guogong had reconciled, and with her status as a noble concubine, she would have a chance to restore justice.Unexpectedly, the old lady is so powerful that the entire An Guogong Mansion is in her hands.Aunt Zeng has been bouncing up and down for more than ten years, wasting time, but achieving nothing.

"It's really a pitiful person, but there are also hateful things."

Yu Jing echoed, she didn't like Aunt Zeng just because this woman reminded her of her own mother.

The same dare not speak loudly, willing to be a slave and servant, obviously cowardly and incompetent, but likes to boast of dedication!
Li Ci said again: "Looking at your outfit today, you have put a lot of thought into it, could it be—"

Yu Jing shook the palace fan and said with a smile: "After all, you and I are duckweeds with no support. It is rare for the eldest princess to promise a heavy responsibility. Naturally, she must be careful to serve her. Don't let the green-eyed chicken find the wrong place and lose the eldest princess." The face of the government."

Since she didn't admit that this painstaking dressing was aimed at the position of the young wife of Duke An's mansion, and Li Ci didn't let it go, she looked up at the lonely and gorgeous blooming of the huge white lotus that was invincible in all seasons outside the window, and couldn't help but think of that shouldn't be. man who exists.

What is the relationship between him and the eldest princess?
Lover, or—

Li Ci smiled wryly, she didn't realize until now that even though they were in the same enclosure, she knew nothing about that person.

On the other hand, Yu Jing, seeing the grand and plump lotus in the Ningbi Pond, with heavy petals, like a cloud veil as the breeze blows by, she couldn't help being fascinated for a while, and said: "It's worthy of being the eldest princess's mansion, with auspicious gatherings, even the white lotus that doesn't stir up dust. With nobility, undefeated in all seasons."

When Ding Fengyi heard the words, he hurriedly explained: "It is Mr. Jun's ingenuity to bring in hot springs to grow this pond of white lotus that blooms all year round."

Yu Jing was originally interested in this man who didn't know whether it was the face of the eldest princess or a staff member. This time, she deliberately brought up the topic and took the opportunity to ask some trivial matters about Jun Fengxi. Tan Lang has the heart, and also the intention to offer treasures. When he said that the bamboo tube was pouring beans, Yu Jing couldn't help being curious: "Since you have such talents, why don't you want to be an official?"

"Fang Wai is an expert, how can wealth and honor in the world be tied down."

Ding Fengyi said with a smile, the corners of his eyes were full of spring.

But Yu Jing was half cold because of this.

She walked up to Li Ci, whispered in her ear, "What do you think of Jun Fengxi?"

Li Ci couldn't prevent her from asking this question, and replied vaguely: "The dragon and the phoenix among people are not ordinary people."

Both Wei Guogong and Fu Zhu had dangerous evaluations of him, but she was unwilling to say these things. She always felt that although Yu Jing was greedy for wealth and full of calculations, she was pure and ignorant and did not understand the dangers of official career.

Sometimes knowing too much is not necessarily a good thing.

"The dragon and the phoenix don't want to take the clouds to the sky, they would rather stay in the chicken coop in the shallows, but they can only eat some fish, shrimp, mud and grass."

Yu Jing murmured, with a vague sense of complaint in her words, but she saw Li Ci's face showing displeasure, and hurriedly said: "It is difficult for a man with a good appearance to be sincere. You are young, so don't be fooled by him. .”

Li Ci smiled and said nothing, but Ding Fengyi, who was an admirer of Jun Fengxi, couldn't tolerate others saying such harsh words, so he pretended to be plain and said: "Mr. Wealth and honor in the world, love between men and women, without the slightest interest, Er Niangzi has nothing to worry about."

Yu Jing was embarrassed after eating this soft nail. Fortunately, she was always quick-witted, and she had an idea, and argued: "What Ding Fengyi said is very true. Since ancient times, appearance is born from the heart. If you don't seek the Tao wholeheartedly, how can you be like this?" Possession and demeanor?"

Ding Fengyi didn't want to let it go, and wanted to retort, Lici saw that it was not good, so she hurriedly intervened to save Yujing's face: "It is true. Look at that Hua Yunfei, who was born with a good-looking appearance, but described it as wretched. teach people to hate."

Seeing that Li Ci was also protecting Yu Jing, Ding Fengyi stopped chasing him, and echoed: "If it wasn't for his status, who would allow him to be so unscrupulous. The dude should cherish his blessings, and take away all the blessings of his ancestors , there is no guarantee that there will be no retribution on the descendants."

Speaking of this, she suddenly remembered that Hua Yunfei was the only son of the eldest princess, and covered her mouth and said: "I made a mistake for a while, and please ask my wife—"

Seeing that Ding Fengyi spoke straightforwardly, Li Ci already liked it a little, so naturally he didn't blame him, and changed the subject, "The lady history just now has a gorgeous temperament. I think she has a kind face, but I don't know where I saw it."

Ding Fengyi saw that Li Ci took the initiative to change the topic, and said along the way: "She is from Qiongyuyuan, called Younv, and rarely walks around the mansion on weekdays. She is the celebrity in front of the gentleman, and the confidant of His Highness."

Playing girl?

No wonder he felt kind-hearted, it turned out to be the person who led Ye Chuan to meet the eldest princess.

It's just that she was wearing Fengyi's costume that day, but this time she was dressed as a female historian, so she couldn't recognize her.

But she would not be so stupid as to ask how this wandering girl became a female history in a while.

Since Jun Fengxi may be the eldest princess' staff, You Nu should not be just a female official.

On the other hand, Yu Jing, after listening to Ding Fengyi's words, she couldn't help feeling sorry for herself, and said: "No wonder you dare to choke the old lady so hard that you can't say a word. If I have a deep support like her, I don't have to worry about being bullied. "

Yu Jing was so presumptuous, Li Ci felt very uncomfortable, so she took a picture of the palace fan and said jokingly: "The second lady was born so well, and she is the fate of Luan Feng, how can you say such despondent words! Waiting for the filial piety, the door-to-door marriage proposal The sons of the princes are afraid that they will step on the threshold."

Yu Jing knew that she was comforting herself, and said with a smile: "Si Niangzi is making fun of me again! After all, she is a concubine, and marrying a small official is a fluke, so I dare not expect extravagant expectations."

Ever since the real Baihe revealed the secret, saying that she was the fate of the phoenix, Yujing has always been worried about gains and losses, half-believing.

Although she was thinking about it, she was looking forward to the opportunity to marry into the royal family, but she was also worried that after waiting for two years, it would all come to nothing and be treated as a joke.

So if someone mentions the words Luanfeng Ming, she will definitely deny it in every possible way, fearing that saying these three words too much will ruin her blessing.

Li Ci also understood her careful thinking, so she mentioned it casually, and stopped talking. Standing in front of the window decorated with large pieces of glass, looking at a pool of clear water, the gentle breeze of the lotus, the fields of lotus leaves, lonely and luxurious.

The eldest princess once said that when the lotus is the most prosperous, it is also the moment when it is about to wither.Against the weather, the white lotus is ordered to bloom in winter, and after all, it only shows that this beauty is a tulle lady in the white snow, lonely and desolate.

Such a high-ranking and powerful person can't help feeling that prosperity must decline, and he is just an involuntary chess piece. Do he really want to be at the mercy of the invisible hand?
She had died once, so she cherished her life even more.

What's more, after listening to Fu Zhu's explanation of the undercurrent of the court, she already understood that people are at a high place and cannot help themselves.

In any world, in any era, as long as interests are involved, there will be disputes and the strong will prey on the weak.

I just want to live a safe life, why is it so difficult!

I am not a fool who has been educated in loyalty to the emperor since I was a child, and I cannot understand the glory of dying for the royal family.

I am cold by nature, and most of all I am greedy for life and afraid of death.

Want me to be killed by the neck?

no way!
