Chapter 245 Confrontation
Emperor Zong, as he had done the previous times, got up and left after the banquet, of course, like last time, he called Qi Rong away, but this time Qi Rong left Wei An behind, and stood beside Zhen Wanyi and waited, just waiting for Zhen Wanyi to leave the palace after the end. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
As soon as Emperor Zong left, the people who stayed all looked at Zhen Wanyi, different from the curiosity last time, this time it was Chi Guoguo, looking blatantly, because the two kings of Jinning did not leave, and then thinking of Qi Rong's quiet return to Beijing this time, he went out of Beijing with an errand, and now the people who are doing the errand are back, how is the errand doing? Did they arrest anyone, they didn't know? How could they not speculate? So after Emperor Zong left, the ministers gathered together in groups of three or five, standing close to the entrance of the main hall to discuss. Then, the women also approached the queen and concubine in twos and threes, and invited each other to sit together, thinking if they could find a letter from the backyard.
Regarding Qi Rong's return to Beijing, not only the ministers are speculating and looking, but even the two women who are high above are also speculating and wanting to investigate.
Just when Zhen Wanyi was thinking about whether she could leave first, the queen took the lead in speaking out, "Princess Rong hasn't been in the palace for a long time, and she doesn't come to talk to my sister-in-law, but this palace has been looking forward to being closer to Princess Rong in the palace?"
Zhen Wanyi was about to get up to reply, but the queen stretched out her hand and pressed it down, "Your family doesn't have to be polite, just sit and reply." ”
Zhen Wanyi still got up and bent her knees, and said, "Queen Xie, the concubine is presumptuous." After that, he really sat down and answered the queen's question, "It's not that the concubine doesn't want to enter the palace, it's just that the concubine doesn't know the way, and it's easy to go wrong, so it's easy not to go out if you have to, even if you go out, it's a group of people in front of you and behind you, which looks very troublesome." Therefore, the concubines are used to staying in the house without going out, and the affairs of the palace are still in the familiar stage, so it takes more time. ”
The queen nodded, and smiled very gently, "It is true that you have to suffer a little bit to be in charge of a huge palace at such a young age, but fortunately, the population of Rongwangfu is simple, and the thirteenth brother is very assertive, which makes you feel a lot easier." ”
Zhen Wanyi's eyes narrowed slightly, "The queen's words are in the heart of the concubine, plus there is a competent mother in the house to help take care of things, think about it carefully, in fact, the concubine didn't do anything, she ate and drank all day long." ”
"That's a blessing for Princess Rong. ”
Zhen Wanyi looked at Concubine Yi who interjected, and smiled at the queen's gaze, "That's also the queen's generosity, and the population of Rongwang's Mansion is simple, so the concubines can enjoy this leisure." ”
The smile on the queen's face deepened, and the corners of her squinted eyes squeezed out deep crow's feet, and her heart was extremely comfortable, and she glanced at Concubine Yi, this woman is usually used to being domineering, and she can't figure out the situation. Do you really think that everyone else is stupid, don't you know what good things she has done secretly? Although very few people know about Qingxia's affairs, but if she walks too much at night, she will always get her shoes wet, looking at Princess Rong's attitude, she is not friendly to Concubine Yi? Speaking of which, there is not a little grudge between Zhen Wanyi and Concubine Yi, if it weren't for Concubine Yi's insistence that the concubine of the Sun family marry into the Rongwang Mansion, the Rongwang Mansion would not welcome the concubines on both sides first, and then the concubines.
Coupled with the incident of Liu Xiurong causing Princess Rong to fall into the water and Qingxia borrowing a knife to kill people, is it strange that Princess Rong can make friends with Concubine Yi? Fortunately, King Ning persuaded her back then and did not let her interfere in the backyard of King Rong's mansion, otherwise Princess Rong would have to say this to her today. Thinking of this, the queen finally exhaled the breath that made King Jin out of the limelight and difficult to swallow tonight.
Concubine Yi's eyes flashed, and the smile on her face was even worse, "No wonder Prince Rong is obsessed with Princess Rong, and the beauties given by His Majesty have all rejected them one by one, and Princess Rong also likes such a straight son as the palace." ”
Zhen Wanyi raised the corners of her mouth, "It's good that the concubine doesn't blame me, I just can't speak, so I offend people and I don't know it, and I often pour some inexplicable mold." ”
The queen's eyes lit up, and she was even more sure that Princess Rong knew a thing or two about Concubine Yi's secret moves.
Concubine Yi's face did not change, "With the presence of Prince Rong, the princess doesn't care if she offends anyone." Look at Concubine Sun in your house, a flower-like person, who doesn't protect her eyes in ordinary people, but Rong Wangye, actually sent people back to Chengguo's mansion when Concubine Sun saw the princess for the first time, so it was the first time I heard of Chengguogong's face. "Concubine Yi spoke in a very peculiar tone, like singing, and it was easy for people to listen attentively.
As soon as Concubine Yi's words fell, the eyes of the women stared at the bright red behind Zhen Wanyi, Sun Xiaoxiao's back was straight, and the smug look on her face flashed, and then she showed a timid and scared look, the bright and dazzling makeup with such an aggrieved look made people really feel awkward to see it, but such a pretentious appearance did not prevent a group of women who were deeply peeking into the private affairs of the back house from thinking about the association, this Sun Xiaoxiao's appearance is not bad, placed in anyone's house, it is a big threat to the housewife, not to mention that there is a tough mother's backer behind her, if such a person is placed in their house, they will definitely regard it as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh, I want to suppress it early.
It's just that this Princess Rong is young after all, her mother's family is simple, and she hasn't gone through any dirty things, so a good opportunity can easily let this woman go back to her home again, but it's a pity that she made her first shot, so she was so ruthless that she was just a paper tiger, so she looked at Zhen Wanyi with a little more sympathy in her eyes.
Zhen Wanyi didn't care about other people's eyes at all, now she knows how enthusiastic women in this era are about gossip, and they can make waves when there is no wind, not to mention that Qi Rong really drove a side concubine with a high status back to her parents' house. In the past, some people mentioned a little bit behind her back, but when the dignified concubine said it in public, it was really difficult to argue. Thinking about Qi Rong's pampering of her as if no one was around, he took a deep breath and said with a coquettish smile: "Concubine Yi's words are mixed between right and wrong. This person has a pair of eyeballs, but the prince said that the woman who can be regarded by him as eyeballs, one is the mother who gave birth to him, and the other is the other."
Zhen Wanyi stopped talking here, her eyes flowed, and she said when she was amused by the interest of a circle of women: "I'm very sorry, it's just a coincidence, it's not the flower-like Concubine Sun in the eyes of the concubine, so I have to say sorry to the concubine, and the prince is disappointed by your kindness." ”
When no one else reacted, Hong Xiangyu laughed, "Princess, are you not afraid that the prince will be in a hurry to settle accounts with you when you say the prince's private words like this? Concubine Sun dared to beat the people around you when she was serving tea in Jinxiang Courtyard, and was sent back to the Chengguo Mansion by the prince." If I upset you again today, I'm afraid that you won't just be able to copy the book. ”
Sun Xiaoxiao's face was pale, she was really afraid of Qi Rong's unambiguous temperament, and said that she would send her home, and she would have sent her back in a sedan chair without even letting her clothes be packed, if it weren't for her aunt who felt sorry for her, she rushed out of her clothes overnight, and flattered her mother-in-law, I was afraid that she, the side concubine of the palace, would be embarrassed and thrown back to the Chengguo Mansion.
