Chapter 200

As soon as the figures of the two disappeared, the hall suddenly seemed to explode.The minister who knows how to flatter has already rushed to the emperor, and said a lot of compliments, the emperor couldn't even keep his mouth shut from laughing!

Tuoba Rong sat there quietly, took a glass of wine, and sipped it quietly, as if all the bustle and noise had nothing to do with him!Although the main hall was chaotic, there were still a few lines of sight that looked at Tuoba Rong unswervingly.Among them is Princess Mingzhu who lost her composure yesterday!

She looked at Tuoba Rong who was sitting there quietly, feeling infinitely sad in her heart, he was like a piece of ice that would not melt for a thousand years, even if she took out a heart for him, he would not take a second look, in his eyes was Only that Princess Mingxia!
In fact, she didn't care whether Tuoba Rong liked her or not, but she lost face in front of so many people yesterday, which made her feel a little bit sorry.Although the queen mother has comforted her in every possible way, she still hates Princess Mingxia and even the emperor a little bit, why use herself as a shield for her?
When they arrived at the Royal Garden, Concubine Yu first sat down on a stone stool, looked at Lu Ziyi with a smile on her face, and said, "I heard that Concubine Yu and the Princess are very close and have a good relationship, right?"

Lu Ziyi smiled and said: "The princess is the prince's younger sister, that is, my younger sister, so I naturally want to treat her well!" While talking, she looked at Concubine Yu's face, and saw that there was no disturbance on her face, and she smiled again. He said: "I don't even know when Concubine Yu entered the palace, so I should have come to greet Concubine Yu earlier!"

Concubine Yu sneered and said: "My status is low, so how dare I bother Princess Yu to come to greet me? But speaking of it, I used to have a younger sister, but she treated me badly and made me homeless." "Princess Yu, tell me, how will I treat my younger sister?"

Lu Ziyi smiled, but said nothing.But in my heart, I couldn't figure out why this Lu Dieyi entered the palace?

It turned out that Lu Dieyi was rescued by a businessman. He escaped from Lu's residence that day and hadn't eaten for several days.

Lu Dieyi crawled out of the Lu Mansion with his last breath, but was rescued by a businessman in a coma.When she woke up, she was already in the merchant's house!

The businessman who rescued Lu Dieyi was called Zhong Hong, the richest man in the imperial capital, and he was in the silk business all year round.

Rescuing Lu Dieyi was just because of her beautiful appearance, Zhong Hong asked the doctor to treat her when he returned home, and planned to take her as a concubine.At this time, news came from the palace that Tuoba Rong, the third prince of Xuesang Kingdom, would choose a crown princess, Zhong Hong hesitated.

Merchants had no status in ancient times. In order to make it more convenient for him in the future, Zhong Hong came up with the idea of ​​Lu Dieyi.He hypocritically wanted to recognize Lu Dieyi as a righteous daughter, and then said that he would send her to the palace to enjoy the blessings. You must know that if Lu Dieyi really has the ability to become the third princess of Tuobarong, then his future glory and wealth will not be the same. Don't ask for it.What he didn't expect was that Yu'er, who was aliased by Lu Dieyi, fascinated the emperor as soon as she entered the palace, and became the emperor's favorite concubine!

It's not bad to be the third concubine, but to be the emperor's concubine. As long as you blow the pillow wind by the emperor's pillow, you can earn more money in a month than in the previous year.Zhong Hong accepted the reality, and wholeheartedly enjoyed the glory and aura that Yu'er brought to the Zhong family.

Zhong Hong thinks so, but his daughter Zhong Xiaoxiao doesn't think so.After countless rewards from Concubine Yu, she finally couldn't help but ran to Zhong Hong's study and started making a scene. "Father, I am your daughter. How could you let that bitch Yu'er enter the palace? I should be the third princess. She is just the trash you picked up on the road!"

Zhong Xiaoxiao didn't understand why Zhong Hong would send Yu'er into the palace to be a concubine and enjoy the glory and wealth. He should be the one worshiped by thousands of people! "Xiaoxiao, stop making trouble! If Concubine Yu knows your dissatisfaction, then our Zhong family will be in trouble! Your son Liu Changlong, Liu Shibo, will come to propose marriage in a few days, and I have already promised you to be betrothed to him!" Zhong Hong was sorting out a month's accounts, and he was in a very good mood looking at the increasing amount of money. "I don't want it! Dad, I want to enter the palace!" Zhong Xiaoxiao rushed to Zhong Hong's table and said word by word.

Zhong Hong looked up at her, seeing her firm eyes, he shook his head helplessly, "The harem is dangerous, it's not a place for ordinary people to stay, you'd better prepare well for your marriage with Liu Shilong!"

Zhong Xiaoxiao took out a dagger that she didn't know when she was in her hand, pressed it against her neck, and said aggrievedly: "Father, if you don't agree to me, then I will die in front of you! You can let Yu'er enter the palace!" Why don't you let me enter the palace but let me marry a businessman who has nothing, since I can't be a concubine, I might as well die!" As he was about to wipe his neck, Zhong Hong was so frightened that his face turned pale. Said: "Xiaoxiao, put it down, if you have something to say, put it down!"

Tears rolled down Zhong Xiaoxiao's face, "If you don't agree to let me enter the palace, I won't let it go!"

Zhong Xiaoxiao is Zhong Hong's only daughter. She has been pampered since she was a child, and she can do what she says. Zhong Hong knows in her heart that her daughter will really do what she says, and sweating anxiously, she said: "Okay, okay, Dad agrees, agrees." , you quickly put down the knife..."

When Zhong Xiaoxiao heard that Zhong Hong finally agreed, she put down the dagger, looked at Zhong Hong aggrievedly, and choked up, "Father, I..."

Zhong Hong looked at his daughter with a pale face. He didn't know what to say, so he said: "I can agree with you to enter the palace, but you must not become the emperor's concubine! I heard that the emperor has always wanted to give the third prince of Xuesang Kingdom Looking for a third concubine, I will go to the harem to meet Yu'er and see if I can circle the middle!"

Zhong Xiaoxiao nodded excitedly, "Yes, Dad!"

Zhong Hong entered the palace, and walked into Concubine Yu's palace surrounded by eunuchs.Gongjiao were painting Concubine Yu's nails there, Concubine Yu smiled slightly when she saw Zhong Hong coming in, pointed to the soft chair beside her and said, "Daddy, please sit down!"

Zhong Hong sat on the side feeling like pins and needles, and wanted to speak, but Concubine Yu didn't even look at him.He wanted to get up but didn't know how to speak, so he could only sit dryly.

After an unknown amount of time, when Zhong Hong's legs were numb, Concubine Yu slowly opened her mouth, "Oh, I'm really rude, hurry up and serve tea!" She said angrily, looking back at the little eunuch beside her. : "Why don't you remind me, let my father sit down!"

The little eunuch was so frightened that he fell to his knees and kowtowed for mercy.

Zhong Hong knew in his heart that Concubine Yu was a person of status now, so maybe he just wanted to show him off?
"Your Majesty, don't be upset, Cao Min will be fine if you wait a while!" Zhong Hong laughed.

"Okay, let's all go down, I want to talk to dad!" Concubine Yu said flatly, blowing on her nails.

Only then did Concubine Yu look up at Zhong Hong, "Is there something you need to do when you enter the palace this time?"

Zhong Hong swallowed his saliva, and said: "There is indeed something I want you to help!" "Oh?" Concubine Yu raised her eyebrows, "Tell me!" "It's for Xiaoxiao, your sister wants to enter the palace! "Zhong Hong said. "I don't remember having a younger sister. Since it was your father who opened the mouth, of course I will remember it in my heart. I will send someone to bring her into the palace in two days. There are many concubines in this harem, and she is not bad." One!" Concubine Yu said coldly.

There was a layer of cold sweat on Zhong Hong's forehead, and he continued: "Not to be the emperor's concubine, but the third prince!"

A smile appeared on the corner of Concubine Yu's mouth, and she looked at Zhong Hong with cold eyes, "It's said that businessmen can calculate, it's really not bad, you, Zhong Hong, are really a leader in the business world! I will help you with this matter." , but what you promised me, I asked you to inquire about the Yuwangfu, how did you inquire, is it because Zhong Xiaoxiao won't enter the palace, and you don't plan to come to see me anymore?"

Zhong Hong heard Concubine Yu's overtones, and quickly knelt down on the ground, saying repeatedly: "I'm really wronged, Concubine Yu, you also know that I'm just a businessman, how can I have the ability to inquire about Concubine Yu's affairs? It’s just that I heard some rumors on the street!”

Concubine Yu frowned, "You mean you didn't find out, right?" She clasped the corner of the table tightly with her fingers, and her tone became even colder!
Concubine Yu lowered her head, let go of her hand, and said in a deep voice: "Okay, I know about you, you go, I will arrange for Zhong Xiaoxiao to enter the palace, but whether His Royal Highness can take a fancy to her, it depends on her fortune ! Also, you have to find a way to get me news from Yuwangfu!"

Zhong Hong looked puzzled: "Empress Yufei, I..."

Concubine Yu glanced sharply, and scolded: "If you can't even do such a small matter, what's the use of leaving you, if you can't do it in half a month, I will let the emperor implicate your Zhong family and nine clans, you can see for yourself Do it! Get out of here!"

Zhong Hong crawled out of Concubine Yu's palace in fright.He regretted it very much, why did he save this woman and send her to the palace at that time, but now he arranged a time bomb for himself, ouch, it was all caused by greed!

When Zhong Hong left the palace gate, he was still immersed in the panic just now. The servant called him to get into the carriage, but he ignored him and actually walked all the way home.

Sure enough, within two days, news came from the palace that Zhong Hong's daughter, Zhong Xiaoxiao, would attend the concubine selection banquet held by the emperor for the third prince of Xuesang Kingdom.

Zhong Xiaoxiao was so excited that she didn't sleep at night, took out all the precious jewels and tried them on one by one, and asked the jewelry shop to make Zhuchai overnight, and the tailor shop to make the latest clothes overnight!

Zhong Xiaoxiao didn't know about the relationship between Zhong Hong and Concubine Yu, and still believed that Concubine Yu had the glory and wealth of today because of Zhong Hong, so she always regarded herself as Concubine Yu's nobleman in her heart, and it was difficult to speak to Concubine Yu. Not so polite anymore!
She sat on the lower side of Concubine Yu, almost opposite to Tuoba Rong.As soon as she saw Tuoba Rong's tall and straight figure, gentle and beautiful face, and noble clothes, she couldn't take her eyes away anymore. She didn't even notice when Concubine Yu left. On Tuoba Rong's body.

The cakes and wine in front of Zhong Xiaoxiao did not move, she stared straight at Tuoba Rong.When Lu Ziyi saw it, he pouted and whispered to Mingxia: "Did you see that little beauty? She's been staring at Tuoba Rong since entering the hall. I don't know which family's lady it is?" "Her? Huh, It's just a rich merchant's daughter, I heard that her father sent Concubine Yu into the palace! Oh, by the way, what did Concubine Yu tell you to go out just now, do you know her very well?" Mingxia asked. "I didn't say anything, it was just chatting randomly!" Lu Ziyi said with a light smile.He glanced towards the main hall and saw that Lu Zhongxin hadn't come over, so he was really puzzled.Fortunately, Lu Dieyi seldom showed up before, and there were quite a few people who had seen her. Otherwise, I don't know what big storms will be caused.Now she doesn't recognize her identity, and uses the outfit of a noble concubine to oppress herself. She doesn't know what kind of medicine is sold in the gourd! "Ouch, my stomach hurts..." Lu Ziyi suddenly yelled softly, clutching his stomach. "What's wrong with you?" Mingxia asked nervously.Lu Ziyi was dragged into the palace by her. If Ye Ranchen knew that his concubine had been wronged, how could she be allowed to come into the palace again in the future!
