Chapter 170: The son is not a good person, but he has deep affection
I rejoice in him and love him, but I don't want him to have a concubine by his side who will tell the worldβI can't be like water, and I can't see that the righteous wife around him is not me.
Even, deep down, I hope that there will be no other pillow people around him! What I love and enjoy the most is the days when I was with him as a mandarin duck and a butterfly, and those intimate times.
Where can these secret and chaotic thoughts be spoken!
A woman's jealousy is immoral!
A jealous prince's side concubine is even more rebellious!
My heart turned a thousand times, but I didn't know where the exit was.
The rain outside the window is even more urgent!
Seeing that I was bowing my head sideways and silent, Shengyao turned me over, pinched my chin, and imprinted a kiss on my lips.
I pushed him away before he could go deeper.
Holding back the pain on the tip of his heart, he said in a low voice: "What the Queen Mother said is right, the prince sits firmly in the position of the prince and needs the help of the Wu family." Tonight is stormy, please go back to your father to accompany you earlier. If the father's body can heal as soon as possible, it will be beneficial to Daqi, and it will be a blessing for the prince. β
His body froze.
After a while, he easily opened his arm.
I stood up and bowed: "Congratulations to the prince." β
He stood up silently.
When he was about to walk to the door, Sheng Yao suddenly said, "I know you are not happy." β
This is the second time he's said that to me.
Maybe he understands my heart a little.
After a pause, he added: "I know what you are worried about, but I hope that you will accept this matter calmly, and I am glad that you care about this matter." Really, it's a bad man. β
After saying that, he strode away.
I stood on the spot, my heart was depressed, but I was smiled bitterly by his sudden bad words.
The son is not a good person, but he is deeply affectionate!
************************************************
I woke up early the next morning, and the wind and rain stopped.
Last night's wind and rain were so big, but today is such a sunny day.
I stared at the bright sunlight on the window sash.
I vaguely remembered that the queen mentioned the day before yesterday: It is excellent to use the dew drops on the lotus leaves in the early morning to make snacks. At this time, the heart is empty and uncomfortable, it is better to find something to do, and the fatigue of the body may be able to relieve the knotted heart.
And my tormented head, I smiled wryly and reached out to rub my sour temples.
got up and got out of bed, and called Zhu'er and Lan Fu to come in and wait for freshening.
Zhu'er gently combed my long hair and said with a smile: "Zhaoxun is so beautiful." It's even more beautiful than last year when I lived in the palace. β
I smiled slightly and didn't speak: The jade hall of Xiao Wangfu's is quiet, Sheng Yao's pampering, and the sweetness of my heart are naturally all nurturing.
Lan Fu opened the suitcase and said with a smile: "Zhao Xun, this set of concubine-colored skirts is good?"
Zhu'er stopped combing the grate, I turned my head to look at it, and said, "This lower skirt is six plain silk, and there is a small tail to drag the ground. It's easy to change pieces, and I'm going to collect lotus dew for the queen mother for a while. β
Lan Fu picked out a set of jade-colored dresses with small sleeves and short undergarments.
Let Zhu'er simply pull a snail bun, dot a golden flower on her forehead, two white jade rings on her ears, and the phoenix-patterned jade pendant on her neck. brought a few jasper cups to collect dewdrops, and the three of them went to the place with the most lotus flowers in the palace - Taiye Pool.
At this time, the morning light was dawning, and the pool was filled with a layer of light mist that seemed to be absent.
Got on a small boat with Zhu'er and Lan Fu - the three of them would be faster together, if the sun was blazing for a while, the dew would disappear.
The still water is deep, and the boat slowly slides towards the lotus bushes.
I knelt on the boat, and kept reaching out to hold the lotus leaves on both sides, shaking the dew that rolled on them into the jasper cup. In my ears was the sound of Zhu'er and Lan Fu laughing and singing in the distance.
Before I knew it, my boat had sunk into the depths of the lotus leaves.
About half an hour later, when I looked down, I saw that there was already a small half of the jasper cup. After putting the jade cup away, I took out a silk handkerchief and gently pressed the thin sweat on my forehead and neck.
The hand that was wiping it suddenly slowed down and paused in the side of my ear - I always felt like I was being watched.
Looking around, there are only high or low lotus leaves swaying in the wind, or budding or blooming slim lotus flowers, empty.
I shook my head and chuckled: I didn't sleep well last night, and my mind didn't belong.
Without distractions, he continued to collect lotus leaf dew.
By the time the jasper cup had most of the morning dew, the sun had risen considerably. I wanted to add the pearls they collected, and it was enough to make a snack, so I wanted to go back to the shore.
Turning his head, he saw a lotus canopy on the side of the boat leaning out horizontally, so he stretched out his hand and folded the lotus canopy off. After playing for a while, I was hesitating whether to peel off the lotus seeds and eat them or use them to insert the bottle, when two voices suddenly came from far and near on the shore: "Little sister, little sister, you wait!"
The voice was out of breath and seemed to be running.
Nearby, a woman sighed heavily, and then a few pebbles fell into the nearby water, causing a small splash - it seemed that the man was annoyed, stretching out his feet and kicking the gravel pavement on the shore.
"What are you running? you're about to become the crown princess!
My heart tightened: the woman on the shore was Wu Shanghua.
The one who can be reprimanded immediately after him must be Wu Shangxian.
Sure enough, I heard Wu Shanghua's angry voice: "Brother Jiu, you have always loved me, why do you want to stop me?"
"I won't stop you, will you lose face in front of the Queen Mother?" Wu Shangxian seemed to be angry, and his voice was much higher.
There was silence on the shore for a while.
Wu Shanghua's low aggrieved voice sounded: "Yesterday evening, Xu Xiang came over to inform my grandfather and asked our house to prepare for a few days to receive the order. When I knew that I could marry King Xiao, I was overjoyed. But this morning, I asked my grandmother carefully, and on the clear decree that will be issued, there is also the will of Qu Xiaoguan as a good woman. How can I bear it!"
Wu Shanghua said this, his words whimpered. calmed down, and continued: "Who in Kyoto doesn't know that King Xiao is a merry prince with Yingying Yanyan beside him. But I have cared about him since I was a child, and naturally I know him best. I have seen it over the years, and what he cares about is Ruan Liangdi, but what he cares about is this Qu Xiaoguan, who entered the mansion last year! This Liangyuan's will is what he asked for her!"
I was already stunned: Shengyao! You have done so much for me.
Wu Shangxian said: "Don't block yourself! When marrying the crown princess, at the same time, the side concubine was appointed, which was not unheard of before." How do you know that the prince went to ask for it!"
"Generally refers to the main concubine, it is true that there will be a few more side concubines in the house of the high-ranking magnates at the same time, but where is this situation in Qu Xiaoguan! Originally, the main concubine was not established, and two side concubines were canonized among the concubines in the mansion, which is already rare, but it is only because the palace has been hesitant about the selection of Princess Xiao before, and I also know it. β
Wu Shanghua sobbed a few times and continued: "But the royal family attaches great importance to the etiquette method, especially the distinction between the concubines and the concubines. Now that I am about to enter the Prince's Mansion, how can the palace mention the original position of the side concubine and suppress the main concubine? The queen mother and the queen in the palace are all virtuous queens, and they will definitely maintain the majesty of the main room, and even if they want to be promoted to the position of the side concubine in the palace, they will wait until I marry him, and I will propose to show grace and prestige! What's more, Naqu Xiaoguan was born as a slave and maid, and there is no clansman in the court to serve as an official and help her. Therefore, only if the prince asks for it, will he make such a will!"
