Chapter 371: Rules (2)
It was the prince with a gloomy expression who spoke. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
The crown princess trembled in her heart, reflexively shrunk, and stopped abruptly halfway through her words.
Over the years, docile obedience has become her habit.
The prince said with a gloomy face: "There are some small things, why do you need to send the imperial doctor to go in a big way?
As soon as the prince was angry, the princess didn't dare to say anything.
Gu Wanning was not afraid at all, and responded with a faint expression: "As concubines, the two side concubines are concubines, and it is their duty to ask the concubine to serve the concubine's food, clothing, and daily life. If they don't come, they have no rules and are not in a proper manner. ”
"My father is used to seeing the major affairs of the court, and probably has never taken the affairs of the inner house to heart. As everyone knows, see the big from the small, and know the small from the small. The inner house is chaotic, and the concubines don't understand the rules, which is the root of the chaos. When it was spread, there was no brilliance on my father's face. ”
Prince: "......"
The prince's first reaction, of course, was anger.
How can a daughter-in-law teach her father-in-law a lesson?
This Gu Wanning is really the opposite!
But in the anger, there is a trace of inexplicable weakness.
Probably because he knew in his heart that Gu Wanning's words were reasonable and well-founded, and he was not messing around. Maybe it's because, similar words, Emperor Yuan You also said.
Gu Wanning's tone of speech at this time was somewhat similar to Emperor Yuanyou, who was not angry but was awe-inspiring...... The crown prince, who was in awe of Emperor Yuanyou, was inexplicably cowardly.
Before this was finished, I listened to Gu Wanning say again: "The mother concubine is kind-hearted, broad-minded, never cares, and would rather endure than make a fuss known to everyone." The daughter-in-law admires her mother very much. It's just that there are no rules, and there is no circle. Although the daughter-in-law was the bride who had just entered the door, she couldn't bear it, so she dared to open her mouth. ”
"The mother concubine is reluctant to open her mouth, and the daughter-in-law is willing to open her mouth on behalf of the mother, please come over now and teach them what the rules are. ”
The crown princess nodded without thinking: "Okay, this matter will be left to you." ”
Gu Guanning: "......"
Well, although the mother-in-law is mediocre and incompetent, she is not stupid.
Gu Wanning quickly responded.
The prince's complexion changed and changed, as if he wanted to turn his face and get angry, but in the end he endured it again, and said expressionlessly: "Min, as the crown princess, you are in charge of the affairs in the inner house." There is no reason to let a new daughter-in-law be the director of the house. ”
The complexion is not good-looking, and the tone is not good.
However, in the end, it was relented.
The crown princess perked up and immediately smiled: "What His Royal Highness said is that the concubine knows what to do." ”
The prince grimaced, brushed his sleeves and left.
The crown princess let out a long sigh of relief, and then looked at Gu Guanning, who looked calm, and didn't know what to say for a while.
The daughter-in-law is so powerful and willing to stand up for her, of course she is happy in her heart. But at the same time, there is a kind of subtle sigh that is far inferior to the other party. Thinking of the prince who left angrily, the feeling in his heart became more and more complicated.
Gu Wanning met the princess's complicated eyes and reminded softly: "Father has already spoken, why doesn't the mother princess strike while the iron is hot and order someone to summon the two side concubines to come?"
As for the three county lords, they can be postponed for one or two. Although they are concubines, they are also serious county lords. Save them some face first.
The crown princess fixed her mind and said, "Okay, I'll send someone to call them to come to Xuemei Courtyard." ”
Gu Wanning smiled faintly.
……
The inner house is not small, but it is not big. But if there is a stir, it will soon be known by the ears and eyes.
As soon as Concubine Yu and Concubine Li stepped into the Xuemei Courtyard on their front feet, the matter quietly spread among the palace maids.
"The crown princess rarely summons two side concubines on weekdays. I don't know why I suddenly summoned so urgently today. ”
"I heard that when His Royal Highness the Crown Prince left Xuemei Courtyard today, his face was ugly. I don't know if it's related to the two side concubines. ”
"Hehe, I think, this inner house is really going to change. ”
Everyone was secretly speculating.
At this time, Concubine Yu and Concubine Li were standing beside the crown princess with grievances to "make rules".
It is indeed natural for a concubine to serve his wife.
However, both of them have been in the house for more than ten years, and they have both given birth to children. As early as a few years ago, there was no need to "serve" in front of the crown princess.
Not to mention, Concubine Yu has been extremely favored in recent years, and has even faintly overshadowed the crown princess. maintained respect on his face, and he didn't take the crown princess seriously at all in his heart.
Who would have thought that as soon as Gu Wanning passed the door, the weak and incompetent princess straightened her waist, her confidence was sufficient, and her speech was much tougher than before.
"Concubine Yu, Concubine Li, over the years, the two of you have rarely come to Xuemei Courtyard to say goodbye. That's all it used to be. Now that the Gu family has passed the door, we have to make an appearance in this inner house. From now on, both of you will come here every day. ”
The crown princess commanded with a faint expression.
Concubine Li didn't dare to say anything, so she resignedly agreed.
Concubine Yu was not angry at the time, and couldn't help but say: "I don't know about this, can His Royal Highness the Crown Prince know?"
Before the crown princess could react, Gu Guanning had already opened her mouth with a cold expression: "These trivial matters in the inner house, how can you make your father worry, and the mother concubine is in charge." ”
"Concubine Yu asked this, is it because she doesn't want to come to greet her mother?"
A side room, what qualifications do you have to be unwilling to ask the concubine for peace?
Such a high-sounding hat was pressed down, where did Concubine Yu dare to respond, and hurriedly said: "Concubine Taisun misunderstood." I had no intention of doing so. As a side concubine, it is within my duty to greet the crown princess......"
Before the words were finished, Gu Guanning had already neatly picked up the conversation: "Concubine Yu not only understands etiquette, but also is willing to abide by etiquette, that is excellent." He looked at Concubine Li again: "I don't know if Concubine Li has any objections?"
Seeing the scenery of Su Ri, Concubine Yu was dumbfounded. Where did Concubine Li dare to talk more, and said with a smile: "What Concubine Taisun said is very true, and the concubine has no objections. ”
"It's good if you don't have it. Gu Wanning pulled the corners of his lips: "Today, the mother concubine took the initiative to summon the two side concubines to come, and tomorrow, the two side concubines will take the initiative to come and ask for peace, don't let the mother concubine bother anymore." ”
Concubine Li obediently shut up.
Concubine Yu was embarrassed in her heart, but she didn't dare to show it on her face, and she stood beside the princess with Concubine Li left and right. Serve tea and water, and say a word or two from time to time.
After a long time, the pampered Concubine Yu stood with a sore back. Concubine Li is not much better.
By noon, the two of them didn't have a chance to rest.
The new concubine said with a smile: "I, the new daughter-in-law, should have served my mother and concubine for dinner. However, the two side concubines are here today, and the daughter-in-law is not good at robbing them of the opportunity to perform. ”
As a result, the work of serving the food also fell to Concubine Yu and Concubine Li.
