Chapter 183: Recovering Costs?
Although Shu Yao is the biological father of Shu Guifei and Shu Zhaoyi, she also gained a lot of benefits after her two daughters entered the palace and were favored, but because he sold all her daughters to the palace envoy of the eldest princess of Wuyang in order to support his son, the sisters had some resentment in their hearts.
So I'm not very close to Shu Yao...... Well, the main reason is that Shu Yao has no ability, unlike Zheng Guogong, who will rise to prosper when given a chance, and in turn become the backer of the concubine. The Shu sisters supported them a few times, and saw that their fathers and brothers were all the way, and they couldn't get on the wall, so they died of this heart, and usually only ordered some errands and other things.
Like Meng Guiyu said, Rong Sleeping Crane is a disciple of Guanlan, but he didn't tell Shu Yao.
Shu Yao didn't know that the Shu sisters' attitude towards Rong Sleeping Crane had changed, and after receiving the message from the Feng family, she also made a special trip to the palace and told the two sisters: "This Feng family is the first group of people to honor us. At this time, the old lady of their family personally begged to come to the door, no matter what the matter is, how many snacks you have, and also let those who make offerings to us take a look and know your sisters' skills!"
Concubine Shu said impatiently: "Who do we need to show off our sisters' skills?"
She sent Shu Yao away coldly, and ordered someone to invite Shu Zhaoyi to discuss, "What do you think is going on?"
"Eighty percent has something to do with Mi Zhen. Shu Zhaoyi said, "The Feng family hasn't opened their mouths for so many years, and it's obviously not good at stubble, and it's not so easy to bully! Even if it's in trouble at this time, isn't it now that the Ningwei Hou Mansion still has the power of Mizhen to use? Those two families, one is a close friend of the in-laws, and the other is a grandson-in-law, it is convenient to find, and there is no need to be too careful to serve." ”
"It's our sisters, although they have been worshiped by him a lot, but they have been in the palace for many years, and they have no friendship with him!"
"If you beg us to go at this time, what will cost you is the filial piety that the Feng family has accumulated for decades...... It's not something that can't be solved by Mizhen, so how can the old man use it?"
Shu Zhaoyi frowned when she said this, a little vaguely uneasy.
Because Old Lady Feng personally went out to ask for this favor, in addition to what she said, Old Lady Feng couldn't solve it with anyone he could find, so he could only come to beg the Shu sisters, and there was also a situation that Old Lady Feng thought that the two sisters wouldn't be arbitrary for long!
In order not to let the Feng family's investment for so many years go down the drain, this is specifically to recover the cost.
"Although Your Majesty's body is not as good as before, it doesn't mean that you can't hold it when you don't have to!" Shu Zhaoyi bit her lip and said in her heart, "The old woman of the Queen Mother is so much older than Your Majesty, and she is not alive and well at this time?" The old man of the Feng family should not have the courage to think so wildly!"
However, he was a little unhappy in his heart, so he said: "Although the Feng family has always been deferential to us, their granddaughter, who is the princess of Mizhen County, is not a good temper! Sister still remembers what she offended you on the shore of Chunbo Lake before, right? Our sister is not easy to bully, or ignore him!"
Concubine Shu reminded: "Didn't you say before, Mizhen can pretend, and our sisters may not lose to him?"
Rong Sleeping Crane is not a fool, originally the Feng family has always worshiped the Shu sisters, according to the tacit understanding, the old lady Feng personally asked for the door, how should the Shu sisters not be closed, how to ask the reason.
At this time, he actually ignored it directly, and Rong Sleeping Crane couldn't imagine that they had changed their attitude towards him? Otherwise, it was just for his sake, and he didn't say anything about sweeping Old Lady Feng's face like this.
"This old man is really. Shu Zhaoyi said unhappily, "Concubine Meng is about to give birth over there, how many eyes are staring up and down now!
The concubine said: "Concubine Meng's side, King Gaomi is more anxious than us, let's just look at it." As for this old man of the Feng family, he has come here, and he has sent someone to ask what is the matter! Who has been worshipping us for decades...... Thinking about it, this time is really fast, so many years have passed in a blink of an eye. ”
Shu Zhaoyi was also a little embarrassed when she said this: "I still remember when we just entered the palace, we were trembling, and when we saw someone dressed gorgeously, we wanted to kowtow and say goodbye...... At that time, I was really ignorant. ”
She said "ignorant", not that she knelt down as a favorite concubine, but felt that if she could have expected today's situation at that time, whether it was to get an orphan girl to serve Emperor Xuanjing, go to her mother and keep her son after she was finished, or adopt Concubine Shu's proposal as soon as possible, and secretly borrow seeds from the clan to give birth to an "imperial heir", how could the sisters not be so passive at this time.
Concubine Shu sensed her sister's emotions and patted the back of her hand soothingly: "Didn't the imperial doctor just show His Majesty? ”
"But Mizhen is afraid that she will not be able to come back in a short time, and Meng Guiyu is not very credible. Shu Zhaoyi frowned, "Forget it, don't talk about these troubles...... According to what my sister said, send someone to ask the old guy of the Feng family, what is the matter!"
So they sent a palace maid to Shu Mansion, and through Shu Mansion, they sent someone to call Old Lady Feng to go over and inquire.
After the palace maid returned to the palace, she said a lot of good things about the old lady Feng: "The old lady obviously respects the two ladies from the bottom of her heart, and when they met, she almost knelt down to give a big salute to the slave maid! Niangniang, you said that the slave maid is such an identity, and the people outside see the shouting 'girl' are all given to the face, where is such a qualification? In the final analysis, isn't he respecting you two? In the end, our master repeatedly said no, and pulled it up. And what the old lady asks for is also human nature. ”
Concubine Shu Guifei smiled and said, "How much benefit has he given you? I want you to spare no effort to say good things to him!"
"It's a whole set of dotted emerald heads. "This palace maid is Shu Guifei's confidant, she has served for many years, and she is very decent, so she was asked by the concubine at the moment, and she was not afraid, and said with a smile, "The most rare thing is that it is intimate and made into a very low-key style, even if the identity of a slave can be used!"
The concubine said: "Hmm, this is going to stay all of them and not turn them in?"
"What are you handing in?" the palace maid smiled and took out a bag from her sleeve, "They also gave the two ladies 100,000 taels of rouge money!
"Yo, what is it difficult for him to make this move?" Shu Guifei frowned, "Don't embarrass our sisters, right?"
