royal girl

Chapter 135 Women in the Harem
Xia Zhaoyi seemed to be having sex with Huiyu. Although she gave the lady a step down, she still tricked Huiyu by saying what she said.

There is another layer of relationship here, if the eldest lady follows Xia Zhaoyi's words and goes down the donkey, and by the way bury Huiyu verbally, it is tantamount to showing goodwill to Xia Zhaoyi.After all, Dong Wan is Xia Zhaoyi's daughter-in-law. Although she is a side concubine, a royal side concubine is somewhat nobler than ordinary concubines.Xia Zhaoyi's overture meant to test the lady and see how she would choose.There is another layer, that is, Huiyu will be Princess Jing in the future. In this battle between King Jing and King Ning, King Ning has lost the upper hand.Now that Xia Zhaoyi has lost Huiyu's face, it is tantamount to letting out a sigh of relief.

Huiyu can think of this level, and the lady must have thought of it too.

Everyone here can survive to this position, who is not a person with a clear mind, at this time everyone's eyes fell on the eldest lady.Even the queen, the master, looked at the eldest lady with a smile. At this moment, Huiyu seemed to be in the vortex of the harem struggle. She hadn't stepped in here yet, but she was already involved. There is no way to avoid it.

The smile on the lady's face did not change, she looked straight at Xia Zhaoyi and smiled slowly, "Your Majesty is right, Huiyu is a bit of a lucky girl. Buddhism talks about the cause of the past life and the result of the present life, so this child must have been born in the past life." Only by doing a lot of good deeds can there be karma in this life, which shows that it is right to accumulate more merits to be a human being."

Huiyu never expected that the eldest lady would make such an answer. She neither refuted Xia Zhaoyi's words to bring trouble on her daughter, nor stepped on Huiyu to pave the way for Dong Wan. I have to say that the eldest lady's answer was simply blinding everyone. ears.

Xia Zhaoyi was taken aback for a moment, the empress looked at the eldest lady, and smiled slowly: "It turns out that the lady also believes in cause and effect, but did you burn the incense from Guo'an Temple?"

The eldest lady was relieved to hear that the queen changed the subject on her own initiative. Others looked at her calm and calm, and God knew that her palms and back were covered with dense beads of sweat.So the queen set up a step for her, and immediately said along the way: "In the past, incense from Taiping Temple was burned, but it was changed to Guo'an Temple in the past two years. Speaking of which, the minister's wife also thinks that the incense from Guo'an Temple is very effective. Master Wen once said Living in the world is like being in the midst of thorns. If the heart does not move, the person does not move rashly. If so, I have converted to believe in the incense of Guo'an Temple since then."

"Don't move your heart, don't move rashly. If you don't move, you won't get hurt. These words are excellent. After all, you are an eminent monk." The empress sighed lightly, her eyes looked into the distance, wondering if she remembered something, her expression Somewhat dim.

Da furen took a breath, but replied with a very respectful expression: "Yes, my wife also thinks so."

When the queen was talking to the Duke's wife, no one else could interrupt her for a while.What's more, although the queen has no favor, the emperor has respected the queen for so many years, so even if the favorite concubine was present, he didn't dare to make the queen unhappy at this time, so they all sat there quietly listening to the queen's questioning.

Huiyu took the opportunity to look around calmly, only to find that there was a screen on the other side, and there was a shadow behind the screen. After careful consideration, it should be the side concubines of several palaces, so Dong Wan must be there too. side.Not everyone has the face to have a seat in front of the empress. Being able to enter the hall, even through a screen, is a kind of gift.

Huiyu glanced at the concubines from the corner of her eyes, and at this glance, she found that the favored concubine was indeed very beautiful and beautiful.Xia Zhaoyi's natural appearance was only a little bit like Xia Bingyu's. Xia Bingyu's whole person was softer, while Xia Zhaoyi's brows and eyes were sharp and powerful.Concubine Xian has a rather indifferent personality, sitting there has almost no sense of presence, and she really doesn't know what to rely on to get to the position of Concubine Xian.What should Concubine Liang say, her appearance is not the best here, nor is her temperament the best, but only those eyes lined with the bridge of her nose instantly catches the eye, she is a beauty with a unique taste, no wonder Able to ascend the imperial concubine.Among all the concubines, King Chun's biological mother, Mingui, can be said to be at the bottom of the list. Sitting under Xia Zhaoyi, she doesn't know what she is thinking. It was the first time I saw it.

It's a pity that I didn't get to meet Xia Guiren, and I don't know how she is in the palace.It was just rumored how she was favored, but Huiyu could feel the heavy pressure when looking at the emperor's wives, it was not easy for Xia Yingbai.

The queen talked to everyone for a while, then smiled and said: "Okay, you all take your daughters-in-law back home, I don't want you to accompany me here."

The noble concubine at the head stood up, smiled and left first, and the rest of the people left one after another according to their positions.The eldest lady took Huiyu and was about to resign, when she heard the empress beckoning to Huiyu, she said with a smile: "Good boy, come here, I will take a good look."

There are no outsiders here, so the queen showed kindness and closeness to Huiyu, and Huiyu's ideas were more and more implemented.Yingying stepped forward, bowed and saluted, "Your servant obeys the order."

Walking slowly, Huiyu walked up to the queen step by step. Speaking of which, the face of the mother of the country is really not outstanding, but the aura of the mother of the country displayed by her whole body is enough.

The empress said to the eldest lady: "You can do it too. There are no outsiders here, so we can talk." After she finished speaking, she turned her head and looked at Huiyu, sized her up and said with a smile, "No wonder Xiaosi begged me for grace. , take good care of you, you really are a lovely child."

Huiyu blushed and lowered her head, not daring to say anything else, so she could only pretend to be shy.

Sure enough, seeing her like this, the queen became happier, took her hand and said: "Xiao Si is a taciturn child, and rarely asks for things from this palace. It really took a lot of effort, you have to cherish his kindness."

Huiyu really blushed this time, and was a little surprised.Hearing the sigh in the empress's words, it seemed that it was not for show, but for real, and I was a little dazed for a while, remembering that Ji Qiyu had said several times in Pinxiangju that I was very sincere about this marriage .She always thought that his words were too watery, but now it doesn't look like what she thought.

Seeing Huiyu's astonished expression, the queen mother saw Huiyu's expression became more and more gentle, and asked Huiyu to sit down on the brocade bench in front of her, then turned her head and said to the eldest lady: "Prince Jing lost his mother since childhood. I take pity on him and take good care of him. The child is a good boy with a kind heart and a tolerant attitude towards things, but he is reticent and has a face that can bluff people. In fact, his heart is very good. I was also worried. The child's temperament is too cold, and he doesn't know how to get along with his wife when he gets married. Now I don't have to worry about it day and night. I have heard about Huiyu's child, and it is a good one. This marriage was bestowed by the emperor himself. Looks like a good match, Madam, what do you think?"

The eldest lady was worried and didn't know what the empress meant by saying this, but she still smiled and said: "What the empress said is very true, our Duke's mansion is also very satisfied with this marriage, the emperor's kindness is deep, my master Long sigh, the only way to repay the emperor's kindness is to serve the emperor with more dedication."

The empress was very satisfied with the lady's answer, she nodded with a smile, and said something for a while, and then she allowed Huiyu to leave the palace with the lady.

Coming out of Fengqi Palace, the eldest lady didn't dare to stay, so she took Huiyu and walked out of the palace.None of the masters here are easy to mess with, if you accidentally bump into one, it will be a disaster.Huiyu followed the eldest lady closely, and did not dare to speak at this time. She was relieved when she reached the gate of the palace under the guidance of the eunuch.

The eldest lady took out her purse and rewarded the father-in-law who led the way, then turned around and said to Huiyu, "At last I got out safely, get in the car, let's go home."

"Thank you, auntie, for taking care of me today." Huiyu squatted deeply, and this courtesy was done willingly.

The eldest lady's eyes were red, and she stretched out her hand to support Huiyu, "You remember the kindness of me protecting you today, and I hope that you can also help your eldest sister when she is in crisis in the future." He added: "At the end of the day, Mrs. Tai is right. I am not only a mother, but also the daughter-in-law of the Dong family, so you don't need to thank me."

Looking at the back of the lady who turned to get into the car, Huiyu could feel the pain radiating from her body.Today's Dong Huiyu's scenery is Dong Wan's embarrassment.The eldest lady did her best to protect Dong Huiyu, and invisibly pushed her own daughter to a dangerous place.

If Prince Ning and Prince Jing were to fight in the future, who would Duke Dingguo's government choose?
Such a choice even Huiyu felt very painful, remembering that the eldest lady was crazy and wanted to cover Dong Wan by herself.After the dust settled, there was always unwillingness to be reconciled, but she also bowed her head to Huiyu with a loving mother's heart, and tried her best to win more support for her daughter.

Mrs. Dong Er is so tough, but only for a pair of children.

At this moment, Huiyu's dislike for the eldest lady gradually dissipated.

After returning to Duke Dingguo's mansion, Huiyu went to ask Mrs. Tai how she was, and told Mrs. Tai what happened when she entered the palace. Then Mrs. Tai asked Mrs. Tai to talk, and then Huiyu went to Mrs. Dong's courtyard.

Mrs. Dong Er did not respond for a long time after listening to Huiyu's words.

Huiyu looked up at her, and saw that Mrs. Dong's expression was extremely complicated at this time, and it took her a while to say: "If I were the eldest lady, I would definitely not be able to do this step, and I would never be able to sacrifice for the Dong family." My own daughter. I used to look down on the eldest lady, but now I think your grandmother has a really good vision."

Hui Yu was silent, Mrs. Dong Er thought of going with her.

"Mother, it's not easy for the eldest aunt."

"In her position, seek her own government. If she can't be fair and just, so many members of the Dong family will watch and won't allow it." Mrs. Dong looked up at the colorfully painted beams of the Chengchen house, "So everyone Madam can sit more and more securely in the position of Mrs. Guo, and it will take a price for the Dong family to trust her."

Huiyu felt that her thoughts might still be in modern times, and for a while she forgot the importance of ancient families.Even though the elder is the current head of the Dong family, and the eldest wife is the eldest wife of the Dong family, if the elder lady does something against the interests of the clan, it is likely to cause resistance from the clan.After all, Duke Dingguo's mansion is indeed the title of the great master, but other members of the Dong family also have people who have become officials, and they can only last for a long time if they become arms with each other.

When family interests and personal interests collide with each other, in this time and space, it is often the personal interests that are finally compromised.

Huiyu sighed softly, and didn't say anything further on this issue. Instead, she looked at Second Madam Dong and said, "I saw Princess Su and Princess Jin in Fengqi Palace, but it's a pity that we can't talk under such circumstances. But look The complexions of both of them are not bad, and they can get by even if they are stumbling in the future.

"You silly boy, no one can live with himself, that is, you are always worrying about others. I have met the eldest girl of Zhang's family. She has a plan in her heart. She is more serious than you. You don’t need to worry about it. Chu Ke is a rare child with a pure nature. It’s a pity that such a marriage is pointed out. As long as she thinks about it, she can live a life. I won't embarrass myself. What's more, I'm pregnant now, and I won't be lonely if I have children to accompany me in the future." Mrs. Dong looked at Huiyu and said, "The banquets at the end of this year have been postponed, so don't go out, right or wrong. It’s better to hide. If I’m not afraid, I’m still living a cautious life at this age.”

Hearing this, Huiyu sat next to Mrs. Dong Er and sat down next to her, "Mother, don't treat me like a child, actually, I also know the depths."

Mrs. Dong pointed at her daughter with her index finger, and then said: "You just keep your mouth shut. Look at what you have done. You have broken your heart for others. They may not accept your favor. Sometimes you are kind. Excessiveness is also a sin, you have to remember. However, it is not without benefits, and the eldest lady can do this this time, which really impresses me."

"So, you must be kind. You must care about your own people and form a front. For the enemy, you must think of the autumn wind to sweep away the fallen leaves and show no mercy!" Huiyu said triumphantly,

Mrs. Dong pinched Huiyu's ear and said angrily: "Okay, I remembered it when you said that, tell me about your meeting with King Jing first. Don't learn, these bastard words I learned quickly. I said that all the good girls were spoiled by Ji Qiyu, and I have long seen that he is not a good person..."

"Mother, no matter how bad he is, he is also your future son-in-law, so be merciful. This time I entered the palace and specifically asked the empress to take care of me..."

"Damn, you dare to talk back to me. This is what a man should do. What's the point of showing credit? You're not motivated, why don't you admit that you were wrong?"

"I was wrong, I was wrong, please forgive me..."

Huiyu burst into tears. There is a mother-in-law whose strength is beyond the charts, and a good friend Sang Ah.

Suddenly Huiyu sympathized with Ji Qiyu, and having such a mother-in-law was enough for him to have a headache.But speaking of it, Ji Qiyu is cunning enough, so far he hasn't had a face-to-face confrontation with Mrs. Dong Er.Regardless of the big or small things, they communicate with the elder and elder brother or Dong Yunji, and then ask them to convey it on their behalf.Tsk tsk, even if Mrs. Dong's second wife has any anger, Ji Qiyu can't fill it up, she's really shrewd.

Huiyu said it was quite unfair.

Just a few days after Huiyu said that it was unfair, Mrs. Dong Er received a list, she couldn't help but stared at the contents of the list, and didn't speak for a long time.

The person who sent the list was Jiang Qing. Because Huiyu pushed the invitations from various families one after another, and accidentally caught a cold when she let it out to the outside world, Jiang Qing came to express condolences on behalf of the fourth prince.First, after asking Mrs. Tai Madam Ding Guogong how she was, she came to Er Madam Dong's place. Upon meeting, she first conveyed Prince Jing's concern and greetings, and then said that unmarried couples are not easy to meet. But he was worried, so he sent his bodyguard to greet him.

Mrs. Dong Er almost sneered twice, came to visit because of her bad reputation?Who the hell had a secret meeting with her daughter secretly?It's just talking nonsense!

Mrs. Dong Er was about to sneer, but Jiang Qing didn't like it, so she immediately took out the brocade box she had prepared and handed it over, and said with a very respectful expression: "The prince asked his subordinates to hand it over to the lady. Ma'am please take a look."

Second Madam Dong looked at the box and couldn't help frowning, trying to bribe her?When she is a petty woman who has never seen the world?Holding his breath, he took the brocade box. The box is made of beech wood. The wood is not expensive but the workmanship is very good, especially the carvings on the four corners are very vivid.Mrs. Dong Er likes delicate things. Looking at the box, her expression eased. When she reached out to open it, she saw a fluffy piece of paper lying on the black satin inside.

Reaching out to take out the paper, he put the box on the side table, opened it and took a closer look, he was a little surprised.Mrs. Dong frowned tightly, and after a long time looked at Jiang Qing and said, "I don't know what the prince means?"

To be honest, Jiang Qing had never felt so restrained in front of King Jing, and this second Mrs. Dong's was as rumored, with sharp eyes that could catch up with the sword that killed the enemy.Hearing Mrs. Dong's question, Jiang Qing immediately said what she had prepared, "When the prince was at the border, I heard that the second girl said that he liked the scenery outside the border. I thought that if we got married in the future, the second girl would like to go out for a walk. When you are relaxing, you can also have a place you like, so I bought a pasture outside the mouth, where I also raised the horses that the second girl likes, and planted flowers that I like." Jiang Qing smiled embarrassedly when he said this "Ma'am, don't laugh at our lord. His biological mother, Fang Jieyu, passed away early. She lost her mother when she was young, so she developed a taciturn character, but her heart is very good. What's more, the second girl and our lord have saved our lives. They are a perfect match." It's all right. When our lord heard the emperor's intention to marry him, his subordinates watched from the sidelines. It's rare to see our lord so excited and speechless. I'm not afraid that my wife will laugh at my subordinates. When I was very young, my subordinates I was chosen to serve the prince, and my subordinates have seen it for so many years. Our prince is indifferent, pure and straightforward, and the least will be able to beat around the bush. Among the princes, he is not the most favored. It is hard to get An errand..." Jiang Qing didn't say the rest of the sentence, but her grievance was clearly revealed, "Now we can finally have a family in the future, our prince is happy, and we are thinking about how to treat the second girl well. After much deliberation That's when I bought this racecourse. The second girl is so arrogant that if I give it to her, I'm afraid she can throw it out, so I thought about asking Madam to turn it around. When the time comes, the lady just needs to say it's a dowry for the second girl. That's it, ma'am, don't dislike the shallowness of the gift, after all, it is our prince's sincerity."

After saying these words, Jiang Qing felt her heart beating in her throat.As a Wu, he would never have thought of such words. He had always heard that Mrs. Dong was extremely difficult to deal with. If he wanted to win the favor of his future mother-in-law, Jiang Qing, Zhang Chang and Guo Linghua were all worried.To say that this civil servant is different from NND, Zhang Chang said that although Mrs. Dong Er has a bad temper, most women are the same, as long as they take the path of sadness, they will definitely be able to attack.So Zhang opened his mouth and Guo Linghua wrote it, which is why Jiang Qing memorized the words by rote.

At first Jiang Qing thought it was useless, Mrs. Dong could propose a divorce, and the master who dared to take her daughter away from home, could be coaxed by these few words?
He expressed serious doubts.

But as a martial artist, he really has no other way but to bite the bullet and give it a try.

Unexpectedly, seeing Mrs. Dong's gradually softening expression, Jiang Qing couldn't help muttering in his heart, saying that he is a scholar who is useless, but this scholar is really good at calculating people's hearts.

Mrs. Dong's heart is also more complicated at this time. Although she knows that Jiang Qing's words are more exaggerated, but thinking of Ji Qiyu's indifferent expression, it is really a motherless child who is bullied and bullied. right?Just listening to my daughter talk about the Fengqi Palace during the half-day of New Year's Eve, I can think that it is not easy for Ji Qiyu, a motherless child, to grow up well in the harem. It is also the living environment that creates the lack of humanity, there is no way.

Mrs. Dong Er seems to be a difficult person to provoke, but in fact she is very soft in her heart. Just seeing Master Dong Er who has been lying in front of her for so long, she can't bear to throw him out, let alone Ji Ji. Qi Yu is like this.In an instant, Mrs. Dong's strong motherhood was aroused. Compared with her own children, Dong Yunji didn't know who to follow her temperament. The northwest wind has gone.The son is out of tune, more like his father, he hits and scolds, so let him do what he can.Daughter, she was too naughty when she was young, and her temper was too tossed. When she grew up, she finally stopped tossing and was a little too cautious. She was heartbroken and her heart was broken.Now with the comparison of Ji Qiyu, Mrs. Dong feels the most pitiful for this child who has lost her mother since childhood and is still growing up in a wolf's den.Besides, he was pretty good to his daughter, and he knew how to make her happy. This son-in-law was a little more pleasing to the eye than before, but only a little.

Jiang Qing was uneasy. Could it be that the method of these two nerds would not work?If that's the case, how do you go back and deal with the prince?For a while, I became more and more uneasy. Isn't it the prince's business to please the mother-in-law?How did he end up suffering so much and worrying so much?

Just when Jiang Qing was anxious and extremely suspicious of the two nerds' schemes, she heard Mrs. Dong Er speak, and couldn't help shivering and listening respectfully.

"My lord has a heart. It's rare for my silly girl to have such a blessing, so my lord misses it. It's just that we don't accept this thing, so you should take it back." Mrs. Dong Er pushed the brocade box back again. It's all right, but it's still clear whether you can want her or not, not to mention that her father is at the border, so it's very easy to get a ranch.What is rare is Ji Qiyu's heart, and it is enough to have this heart.

"If you don't accept it, it won't be easy for this subordinate to go back. Madam, just accept it for the sake of my subordinate's pity. This is the first time our prince has given something. If this subordinate just takes it back like this ... What's more, our lord really wants to treat the second girl well." Jiang Qing was about to burst into tears, if he dared to take it back, the lord would tear him apart.

Mrs. Dong saw Jiang Qing's anxious look, and couldn't help smiling, "Is this worth your haste?"

"It's not that the subordinates are anxious, but I can't bear to think about the prince's disappointment." Jiang Qing looked worried.

Mrs. Dong Er: ...

Isn't it just a broken ranch, how could she be so anxious that she was about to cry, as if she would be a heinous villain if she didn't accept it...

When Huiyu learned that Jiang Qing had come, and listened to the conversation between him and Mrs. Dong, she was speechless for a long time, and finally came to her senses and cursed angrily, Ji Qiyu, you fucking bastard!Taking my old lady's ranch to please my mother-in-law, do you have any bottom line?
