royal girl

Chapter 230 Choice
The people around looked at each other in blank dismay, and then slowly dispersed.Qiu Maoshi's trick of killing chickens and monkeys really scared them. I didn't expect that the princess would even take and kill the people in the front yard. She was so frightened for a while that her face turned pale and her legs trembled. Think carefully about whether you have something wrong It was improper.

After Xueying came back from Duke Dingguo's mansion, she felt something was wrong as soon as she entered the mansion. It seemed to be much quieter.If I had doubts in my heart, I couldn't ask, so I quickened my pace and entered the inner courtyard, and when I returned to the main courtyard, I went in and reported that I was meeting Xueqi.Both of them were girls who came with the concubine, so they naturally had a deeper relationship. Xueying winked at her and asked in a low voice, "Why do I feel that something is wrong when I come back?"

"Isn't this someone who wants to kill himself?" Xue Qi sneered, and pouted in the direction of Concubine Wei.

Xueying understood immediately, and her face became colder, "I knew she was restless, and I really have no patience."

"Isn't it? I don't know who provoked me a few words, so I bumped into him in a dull manner, and it was in vain to take advantage of others." Xue Qi sneered, and the two looked at each other and laughed, opened the curtain and walked in.

Huiyu was walking around the house with Sister Zhao in her arms, and when she saw the two coming in, she said, "Is it done?"

"Returning to the princess, the eldest young lady said that I will greet you in the afternoon." Xueying stepped forward to reply first.

Huiyu nodded lightly, and sister Zhao in her arms lay quietly on her shoulders, her eyes gliding over Xueqi Xueying's body.

"Is sister-in-law happy to come to the palace?"

"The eldest young lady was a little surprised when she heard the servant girl's words, but she quickly agreed with a smile and said she would come in the afternoon." Xueying said.

It seems that Yan Yibai still expressed closeness to his side, at least he didn't make any embarrassing excuses, and Huiyu felt a little relaxed and comfortable in his heart.After all, she didn't want to get into trouble with Dong Yuncheng and his wife, they were still young and they would spend a long time together in the future.

After asking Xueying, Huiyu looked at Xueqi, "How about Concubine Wei?"

Xueying didn't hear what the concubine asked her to go down, so she knew that she could hear what happened next, and there were many things to do in the mansion, so she stayed and listened to it, and she thought it would pay off.

"Wei Concubine saw that it was the maidservant who brought the Langzhong over, and her face turned pale at that time. The Langzhong didn't know what was going on, but thought that the slaveservant belonged to Concubine Wei, so he almost missed the loophole by saying a few words. Concubine Wei is anxious The coaxing wanted to drive the servant out. The servant only said that he had followed the order of the princess to treat the side concubine properly. Then the doctor knew that the servant was the princess's person, and his legs were weak at that time. The servant had already ordered the concubine to be treated Lang Zhong locked it up, just waiting for the concubine to order." Xue Qi said with a smile, as long as she thought of Wei Fangfei's look at that time, she felt refreshed.People like Concubine Wei dare not sit down if they are treacherous and evil, and they just do disgusting things to block people's hearts.This time the doctor was directly blocked in her room, this time it really scared her, let's see if she dares to do anything in the future.

Huiyu laughed, "What can I do?" After thinking about it, she looked at Xueqi and said, "You ask Qiu Maoshi to send this doctor to the Wei family, and you don't need to say anything else."

"Yes, the servant knows."

Wei's house.

Qiu Maoshi looked at the pale-faced Mrs. Wei with a smile, gently stroked his sleeves, and his slightly high-pitched voice was especially penetrating in this quiet space, "Mrs. Wei, this is what the princess specially asked the slaves to send to the Wei family. , you can take it away."

Mrs. Wei looked at the doctor who was tied up like a rice dumpling, trembling all over, she almost couldn't stand upright, she even managed to squeeze a little smile on her face, but she didn't even dare to inquire, she just said: "Elder-in-law, please sit down, my master I'll be back soon, please stay for a while, father-in-law."

Although Qiu Maoshi is not the most useful servant in front of the princess in the palace, he is also a master who can bluff people outside. He laughed when he heard Mrs. Wei's words, "The servant is only ordered to send people here, and he has to go back I don't dare to stay for a long time when I return to my life, I will leave this person to my wife, hehe."

Qiu Maoshi turned around and left without giving Mrs. Wei any time to speak. The four little eunuchs followed behind him, and left like a gust of wind.

Looking at the people on the ground, Mrs. Wei felt dizzy, she didn't even have the strength to stand up.

"Quickly, go and see if the young master is back. Hurry up to meet the master and tell him to come back quickly." Mrs. Wei clutched her chest, feeling that every word she said was like poking her heart out.Seeing the people on the ground was even more disturbing, and she was taken down to lock him up first after being untied, and she didn't know what to do other than that.

Anxiety walked up and down the room, looking out anxiously from time to time, and when she saw her son's figure, she rushed out to greet him, feeling that she was at ease all of a sudden.

As soon as Wei Liren received the news, he hurried back. Seeing his mother coming out with a pale face and staggering steps, he quickly stepped forward to support her, "Mother, what happened?"

Mrs. Wei looked at her son, and the big stone on her heart seemed to be a little lighter, but she didn't know how to speak out what was full of her heart.

Wei Liren helped his mother to go in, waved his hand to let the waiter go down, poured a cup of tea for his mother and put it in his hand, and then said: "Don't worry, drink some tea first, and speak slowly if you have something to say, God Can't fall down."

Mrs. Wei couldn't drink anymore, she put the tea on the table, took her son's hand and said without speaking: "Your sister...your sister..."

It was the younger sister again, Wei Liren's expression darkened, his head hung down, his expression difficult to understand.Hearing the mother finish her sentence intermittently, she said: "Mother, we can talk about this matter after father comes back." The prince picked him up and reused him, but the younger sister had no favor. In fact, he was telling them not to worry about the younger sister's affairs. .He didn't know what his sister did in the palace to make the prince so unhappy, but it was a fluke that the Wei family was not implicated and he could still be used in front of the prince.But I didn't expect that after a while, something happened to my sister again.

Wei Liren's voice fell to the ground, and Wei Xiangrong came back. After returning, he didn't meet his wife and son first, but went to see the doctor who was locked up. When he came back after asking, he heard his wife Crying to his son, he just said that Miao Rongguang refused to stay even a step, shook his sleeves and left.

When Wei Xiangrong came in, Mrs. Wei and Wei Liren immediately got up to greet her. Mrs. Wei looked at her husband, "Master, what should I do? Xuan'er doesn't know what's going on in the palace right now, I... really worry."

Wei Xiangrong slapped the table, looked at Mrs. Wei and said angrily: "What did I tell you last time, I asked you to tell her to stay in the mansion well, don't have any wrong thoughts, you didn't talk to her Say?"

Madam Wei's face changed when she heard this, and she said angrily in a high-pitched voice: "What are you talking about? What kind of life did Xuan'er live in the palace? Now it's a good time, but she is living in the palace for nothing. Can't you think more about yourself? As a father, you only have a future in your eyes, don't you even care about your daughter?"

Wei Liren hurriedly supported his mother, persuading him: "Mother, how can father ignore my sister, don't say that, father will also be embarrassed."

Mrs. Wei was in a hurry, she pushed her son away, and said angrily: "I know, now the prince puts you next to him, and you, a father and a son, trample your sister under your feet to climb up for your own future. They're all careless."

Hearing his mother scolding him, Wei Liren was also very angry. Thinking of the past, he blurted out: "Could it be that my sister can't live in peace in the palace? There are so many concubines in the emperor's harem. I don’t know how many people have never seen Tianyan after entering the palace. Do they dare to complain about their grievances? Is it my father’s fault that the girl doesn’t like the prince? I don’t know what the girl did in the palace last time, and my father’s future was almost ruined. Why doesn't my sister think about her family when she is doing things, this doctor was directly tied up and sent to our mansion, mother can't figure out what's going on?"

Wei Liren really felt exhausted. After saying this, he didn't want to say a word.He also wanted his sister to be favored by the prince, and he also wanted her to live well.But who would dare to disobey the prince's will?The prince clearly didn't like his younger sister, and he was only mentioned to reassure the Wei family. If they didn't know what to do, let alone him, even his father's future would be affected.

Wei Xiangrong glared at his son, then turned to look at his wife, "I have said long ago that Prince Jing is an unfathomable person. I told you when Liren was supported by the prince. In the future, don't point out that your daughter can win the prince." I'm happy. You don't listen to me, you don't know how to persuade her well, and now you still let her do things that have caused disasters."

Mrs. Wei felt aggrieved for her daughter when she heard this, and said immediately: "Could it be possible to ignore her like this? Let her spend time in the palace?"

Wei Xiangrong looked at Mrs. Wei with a cool look on his face, and asked, "Xuan'er entered the house a month earlier than the princess, if she can have the wrist of Princess Jing to hold the prince's heart, can she still be here today? What did you talk to before?" Princess Ning has a very close relationship and I didn't care about you, but what is the consequence? That is, your husband and I don't even have any face in front of the prince. He would rather use Liren and ignore me, you know How aggrieved am I to be ridiculed outside?"

"You still blame me. It's not that you mean to let me and Princess Ning walk more. Now that things are not going well, it's all my fault. For the benefit of your own future, you can even step on your own daughter. You are really cruel. Yes." As long as Mrs. Wei thought about her daughter, she would spit out the words uncontrollably, and she knew that what she said was wrong, but she just couldn't hold back her anger.

"Mother!" Wei Liren couldn't listen anymore, and knelt down in front of Mrs. Wei with a "plop", his eyes were red, and he choked up and said, "Mother, just beg you as a son, please don't do this. King Jing is not something we can handle." Let’s start with, why does the prince not like the girl but still reuse the Wei family? The prince wants us to settle down, and now the prince is no longer the mediocre generation in the court, not to mention petty officials like father and son. Even the grown-ups in the court, who would dare to kick their son directly at the prince now. You love your sister, and your father also held her in the palm of your hand and pampered her when she grew up. However, once you enter the gate of the palace, you are the prince's man. We... can't do anything about it. We don't want my sister to be wronged, but who does the prince like and which one he doesn't like? There are so many palaces in the capital. , not to mention being a side concubine, it is the concubine's natal family, which one dares to do anything when you see it. Even if we take the entire Wei family, I'm afraid it's not enough for the prince to crush it with one finger, so you still have to stand up for the girl, I will listen to you, what do you say?"

Mrs. Wei fell down on the couch covering her face, her mind was in a mess for a while, as long as she thought about the doctor who was sent back, she didn't dare to think about it.

Seeing his wife like this, Wei Xiangrong scolded angrily, "Get married and follow your husband. If you have time, you can send a message to the princess and go in to persuade her." It's not that he doesn't want to take care of his daughter, but he really doesn't dare.No foreign minister would dare to comment on the prince's housework.There are so many side concubines in the palace who can't be counted on ten fingers, are they all favored?Could it be that those side concubines have a worse family background than them?But who dares to point to the prince's nose and say, my daughter, why don't you look down on such rebellious words.

He was really afraid of Princess Jing's methods.Glancing at his son with a complicated expression, the prince lifted Liren up, and he became a joke in an instant.

No one in the whole capital knows about his family, and they would be ashamed if they lost it.If he still doesn't know what the prince means, then he is asking for his own death.

In the past, he thought badly, but luckily he still had time to turn around.

Madam Wei lowered her head and sobbed, how could she tell her daughter such a thing?She really couldn't open her mouth.

As if he understood what his wife was thinking, Wei Xiangrong said with a bitter heart: "If she keeps her own place, she can have a good future in the future. If she doesn't know how to repent, she will suffer even more with the prince's temper. You Think about it yourself." King Jing's friendship with Concubine Jing is something that no one in the capital can see. He should have figured it out when he was able to suppress the daughters of the Wei and Yang families from entering the mansion earlier.But he didn't understand, he slammed into the south wall hard, and he felt the pain only after knowing the prince's methods, and gradually understood that only by following the prince's wishes, the Wei family can have a future, and the daughter can have a future.

He understands, his son understands, but his wife and daughter don't understand.

At this time, Wei Liren didn't dare to say a word, for fear of arousing his mother's anger again, he looked up at his father and asked, "Then what should the doctor do?"

Wei Xiangrong patted the armrest of the chair lightly, his face was a bit dark, "Let their whole family get out of Kyoto, and never come back in this life." He was not cruel enough to silence the doctor, after all, it was a Human life, if he is a smart person who is expelled from Beijing, he will never come back, and his life can still be saved. "After the matter is over, you will personally apologize to the prince." Let the prince know the attitude of the Wei family, and the daughter's anger will be lessened, and their family will be saved.

"Yes, my son knows." Wei Liren turned around and went out. There was no other way.

When Wei's family was in trouble, Huiyu was talking to Yan Yibai.Yan Yibai also specially brought his son Xi brother to play with sister Zhao, Xi brother is not much older than Zhao sister, the two of them rolled around on the couch, listening to the child Laughter, the adult's mood also opened up a lot.

"They are cousins ​​after all, they are close by nature." Yan Yibai looked at the two children and said with a smile, just now the two dolls were very strange to you, now they can roll together and play together.

Huiyu also laughed, "Yeah, brother Xi is a good-natured guy, and he looks much more likable than big brother."

Yan Yibai didn't expect Huiyu to tease Brother Xi's father so much, so he couldn't help laughing, "Really? But I dare not say that."

They are all people with children, and there are special topics about children.What to eat, what to wear, what to play, how to communicate with children endlessly.Huiyu and Yan Yibai slowly started talking about their children, and gradually the topic turned to this banquet, "...I really can't handle it by myself, so I thought my sister-in-law would take care of me that day."

Yan Yibai knew that there must be something wrong with Huiyu asking her to come here, but he didn't expect it to be this matter, so he was stunned for a while.However, he quickly concealed his surprise, and said cautiously: "It's not that I'm lazy, but I don't want to interfere with the affairs of the palace." Stretched too long.

"I know that my sister-in-law has scruples, and I don't want my sister-in-law to do other things. It's just that my sister-in-law entertains my natal family for me." Huiyu said slowly, the smile on her face was also subdued, and the corners of her mouth were half down. chuckle.

Yan Yibai thought about Huiyu's words carefully in her heart. She knew that Huiyu would not say such things casually, so there was something that forced her to do so.Ask yourself to help her entertain people from her natal family. Since it is a person from her natal family who will cause trouble for her, she doesn't need to entertain her specially.Thinking of this, Yan Yibai suddenly remembered something. A few days ago, when her mother-in-law returned from Prince Ning's Mansion, her expression was not good... Thinking of this, she was very surprised. Could it be that Princess Jing was afraid that her mother-in-law would meet at the banquet that day? Deliberately saying something to embarrass her, that's why she said that she was allowed to entertain her natal family, but in fact, she wanted her to stare at her mother-in-law?

I can't help but tremble, this matter is not easy, if I am not careful, my mother-in-law will hate me even more.Thinking about it, he frowned, and didn't know how to answer Huiyu for a while.

Huiyu was not in a hurry, this matter was a bit difficult, especially since Yan Yibai came from a family of scholars, some things were indeed impossible to do.It's just that when a person encounters a hurdle, he always has to make a choice. Whether this choice is sweet or bitter, he has to bear it by himself.What kind of cause is planted and what kind of result is produced? If Dong Yuncheng wants to maintain a relatively friendly relationship with Huiyu, he still needs to show sincerity. There is no such thing as getting something for nothing in this world.

"I will do my best." Yan Yi Bai Si Lin raised his head and said with a smile for a long time.

Huiyu also smiled.

After Ji Qiyu came back in the evening, Hui Yu briefly told her about Concubine Wei's affairs, and Ji Qiyu's expression was very ugly. Of course, he knew what Concubine Wei's behavior meant.But since it was a matter in the backyard, Huiyu, as the mistress, had already made a decision, so he would naturally support it, so he said, "You did a good job."

"Will the Wei family cause trouble for you?" What Huiyu is most worried about is doing this, what if the Wei family rebounds, and will it cause some trouble to Ji Qiyu.

Hearing what Huiyu said, Ji Qiyu looked at her and said, "No, don't worry." Although Wei Xiangrong was the deputy commander of the Wucheng Bingma Division, he really didn't put him on the list now. in the eyes.

Huiyu was really relieved when she heard what Ji Qiyu said, so she talked about the banquet.

Not many people were invited to the Flower Appreciation Banquet in Prince Jing's Mansion, but those who had contacts with Prince Jing's Mansion could basically get posts, plus the people who had to be invited, there were quite a lot of guests.Early the next morning, Huiyu and Ji Qiyu got up early, because Ji Qiyu had to go to court, Huiyu sent him away not long after, Mrs. Dong was worried about taking care of sister Zhao early Here comes.Following Mrs. Dong's footsteps were the two aunts of the Xing family. Huiyu had just invited them in and before she had said a few words, the eldest lady also arrived with Yan Yibai. Gotta be lively.

Yue Shuiqing looked at the clothes on the table and listened to the noise gradually resounding in the front yard, his expression slowly became excited.

"Cousin girl, it's time to change clothes, maybe the princess will invite you to talk later." The girl stepped forward and urged, looking at Yue Shuiqing with a pair of eyes smiling, pointing to the two sets of beautiful and luxurious clothes on the table, "Which outfit do you want to wear, the maidservant will change it for you."

A set of peach red and a set of moon white, both of which are extremely exquisite in workmanship. The brocade-embroidered clothes are trimmed with bright silk borders that are two fingers wide, with a low-key and luxurious texture. It is really difficult to choose at the moment.
