Chapter 605: Weighing Up
Probably only the seemingly innocent little concubine in this grade can ask this.
In ancient times, the so-called talented and beautiful people and other good stories were only staged on the stage, and were limited to the stage of the common people.
Now the little concubine's words, if the boudoir sisters ask in private, it is a little inappropriate in the public, but the people in this room are all curious, and they seem to be very interested.
Su Yiqing lowered her eyes slightly, and her tone was a little heavy: "The so-called good stories are all beautiful things that the world yearns for, and the stories that are expected to appear are all exaggerated, not true, the real situation is very far from the legend, and there is no romantic feeling, when we first entered Yancheng, our convoy was indeed attacked by bandits, and there were many dead and wounded, in a panic, I don't remember many things, I only remember that a few guards were very loyal, and they had an arm cut off, and they still desperately protected the carriage......"
When Su Yiqing said this, her voice was even slower and stopped, as if she was immersed in the unfortunate past, and only continued for a long time: "At the moment of crisis, it was the army under the command of the prince who arrived, and those bandits probably just asked for money and saw that the regular officials and soldiers naturally did not dare to fight hard, so I escaped the catastrophe and escaped death, and the whole person was stunned, until I returned home, I was relieved under the care of my parents, and I can't remember anything else, I also heard some rumors outside, and the so-called prince arrived in time." Saving people under the knife of bandits and the like is nothing, only the army under the command of the prince came, and the prince himself did not appear. β
The little concubine didn't dare to continue asking, the princess kept saying that how many guards died, some of them were bloody, if it was on weekdays, the grandmother next to the queen would have scolded her, but she asked by herself.
You Shi and Concubine Rong exchanged glances with each other again, and their thoughts were the same, and it was rumored that the princess must have grown up in the countryside. Not a gentle one. It's not that they don't believe it, but they just think that the concubine from such a low background has now declined, and King Ding has a new love outside. If he hadn't had a son. I'm afraid that the position of the princess has long been replaced. In front of the queen mother, she shouldn't dare to be presumptuous, but she didn't expect to be so tricky. It's just that people can't find fault with it.
At this moment, no one dared to ask the princess any questions, and the scene was a little embarrassing for a while.
But there are some things that have to be said, I can't count on others, Concubine Rong gritted her teeth and said stubbornly: "King Ding has made a great contribution to my Great Zhou, but the people of Dingwangfu have always been thin, and everyone is quite worried about the prince, I don't know what the plan is to locate the concubine?"
It turned out that the so-called pit was so old-fashioned, Su Yiqing secretly disdained it in her heart, but she pretended to be slightly shy on her face, and said in a low voice: "Every fifteenth day of the new year, I must pray to God to bless the prince's ......"
"It's a big deal, but it's not just a matter of worshipping the Bodhisattva. Mrs. Duanmu, who had not made a sound, spoke, and said with some bitterness, "The prince has been fighting outside all the year round, and there is no one around to take care of him, can Princess Ding rest assured?"
"It is a supreme honor for the prince to fight for the country. Su Yiqing pretended not to understand the meaning of Mrs. Duanmu's words, and some of the answers were not what she asked.
Mrs. Duanmu frowned slightly, glanced at You Shi again, and secretly felt embarrassed in her heart, no matter what the rumors about the princess's temperament, one thing is certain, she is definitely not stupid, when it comes to this, there are also the queen mother and Concubine Rong present, she still dares to be so oily and salty, this plan of the Zhongsu Royal Mansion seems to be a little inappropriate.
As the folk saying goes, barefoot people are not afraid of wearing shoes, if Princess Ding is really a person who doesn't care about recklessness in her bones, their thoughts are only afraid that they won't be able to get benefits, no matter what, this princess has the only concubine of King Ding, unless she makes any big mistakes, who can take her?
Some things are clearly to offend people and have to be done, Mrs. Duanmu promised You Clan earlier, and the topic will be mentioned by her, so although the atmosphere is not quite right now, there is no one else present who can mention it except her, and this kind of thing must not be mentioned by Queen Ni.
With Queen Ni's style, it is already very good to be able to agree to match for them, and nothing else can be expected.
Receiving You Shi's frequently urging looks, Mrs. Duanmu was about to speak.
Su Yiqing took the first step to speak, knelt down from the table, held a booklet in both hands, and said: "I always hear the prince say that the queen is a great woman, and today I can finally see the mother and the phoenix, I am really fortunate to have three lives, I don't know what the mother likes, I didn't prepare when I came, so I copied a few scriptures in the near future and presented them, I wish the mother good health and all the best." β
"Princess Ding really has a heart. Empress Ni was a little surprised, but she still motioned to the palace maid to present the Buddhist scriptures.
Flipping through the two pages, she not only sighed in her heart, it was really a good handwriting, she couldn't imagine that the concubine was young, but she wrote such a good word that did not lose to a man, among the women in the boudoir, there are many beautiful words, but the woman is weak, and the handwriting is more than beautiful and lacking in strength, but the handwriting of the princess in front of her is strong and powerful, and she can't see that it is a woman's handwriting.
It is said that the words are like their people, and the princess does not want to be the kind of squeamish twist of the general boudoir woman, it must also be a decisive day to kill, and the cruelty of the inner house struggle is more than the battlefield, after all, the battlefield is faced with the enemy, the enemy and the enemy are clear, the victory and defeat are absolute, and the inner house struggle, facing the closest relatives, the enemy and me are difficult to distinguish, and it is even more cruel.
From Fang Cai, the princess of Ding dared to risk angering Feng Yan, and tactfully interceded for the old concubine Xue, and also knew that she must be a person who knew how to repay the kindness, the old concubine Xue was very clear about Queen Ni, if it was impossible to say that there was any great favor to the princess Ding, they didn't know each other before, after this concubine of the Meng family became the princess of Ding, there was nothing that needed the old lady Xue to make a big effort, and she couldn't help say a few words when she was excluded, which was also the consistent practice of the old lady Xue.
Just this drop of grace, it is very rare to make the woman in front of her remember it, and find an opportunity to intercede, to embarrass such a woman, Queen Ni is a little unbearable, as a woman, many times will inexplicably sympathize with a woman.
Empress Ni was also in a difficult situation when she first married the emperor who was still not favored by the prince, and at that time it was when the princes were fiercely seizing the heirs, and they were all trying to use various methods to suppress those who threatened them, especially in the other party's family affairs, marriage has always been the fastest and most effective way to enhance their bargaining chips.
As a result of the struggle in all aspects, the inconspicuous Ni family was pushed out, and now Queen Ni has not figured out who decided her fate in the first place, these are irrelevant, anyway, her fate has changed, if she is not married into the royal family, with her parents' love for her, she will choose a gentle and humble gentleman for her, and live her life peacefully, just like a good sister of her, with her own small family, not big but warm and warm, instead of being locked in this cold palace wall, it is even more difficult to take a stepγ
At that time, she was so helpless, her husband was not satisfied, and even her subordinates talked about her low background behind her back, if she didn't take care of her mother's family, it didn't matter if she died, but what should her mother's family do? If something happened to her, her mother's family would be implicated after all, and for the sake of her parents, she struggled to support herself and endure the suffering that ordinary people could not bear.
Although right and wrong have been blurred along the way, Queen Ni still admires those who know how to repay their kindness after encountering many betrayals.
"Mother, it's time for Your Majesty to take medicine. When Queen Ni was entangled, her nurse Bao Mama reminded in a low voice.
Queen Ni was stunned for a moment, and then reacted, Mama Bao wanted to find a reason, let her avoid it temporarily, let Concubine Rong and them deal with it first, and then come back later to clean up the mess.
"This palace will be absent first, and Sister Rong will greet the ladies first. Queen Ni nodded slightly at Concubine Rong, and then left the table first under the first embrace of the palace maid.
