Chapter 296: Grievances
Yu Nianniang only vaguely saw the back of a man passing over the wall in Wanshuyuan, and she didn't see anything else. www.biquge.info The man who met with Huang Tianshi cunningly avoided the patrolling guards and never appeared again after leaving the summer resort, in order not to cut off this clue, Chi Langyi has been sending people to monitor the outside of the old man's house in Wanping County.
After the Yellow River estuary in Kaifeng burst the embankment, the court immediately sent a special person to Zhengzhou to check, after the second embankment burst, the embankment mouth increased and widened, the court spent a lot of manpower and material resources to barely block the breach, the flood that flowed straight down the nearby villages and households were washed away, causing the villagers along the Yellow River in Kaifeng to be seriously affected, fortunately the timely repair, did not expand the affected area.
Perhaps with the assistance of Yu Taifu, there was no problem with the Great Prince's imprisonment, and he could send someone to send the music to the summer resort in time for some important recitals and matters, or to deal with dilemmas. The court affairs were handled decently, and the emperor was very satisfied with it.
Since the emperor has paid more and more attention to Yu Nianniang, Huang Tianshi has become more and more unwilling to see Yu Nianniang, although he did not send someone to call her to Wanshuyuan on weekdays, now he will not inform Yu Nianniang even if the emperor has something. In addition to Yu Nianniang's absence for the first time, Yu Nianniang was like having clairvoyance a few times later, every time he wanted to go to the main hall to see the emperor, Yu Nianniang came by himself.
For a while, Huang Tianshi thought that there was no eyeliner arranged by Yu Nianniang around him. But there are only a few subordinates around Yu Nianniang, and this time she only brought a slave to the summer resort, and it is impossible to arrange eyeliner by his side.
couldn't stop Yu Nianniang, Huang Tianshi had to not give Yu Nianniang a chance to speak every time he entered the emperor, Yu Nianniang didn't seem to care, she stood behind honestly, and never took the initiative to speak, but even so, the emperor occasionally took the initiative to ask Yu Nianniang, which made Huang Tianshi very annoyed.
Returning to Wanshu Garden, Huang Tianshi secretly sulked, and after thinking about it, the more he felt that Yu Nianniang did it intentionally, and Yu Nianniang's identity made him feel more uneasy. originally wanted to write a letter, but because of the affairs of Wanping County, he instructed the people below not to appear again in the near future. Sending the people around him, he was a little uneasy, so he had to give up and wait until he returned to the capital.
finally left an impression on the emperor, Yu Nianniang wanted to appear in front of the emperor from time to time, and the emperor said that Yu Nianniang could go over to talk to him when he had nothing to do, so Yu Nianniang wanted to follow Huang Tianshi to the main hall to see the emperor, and Huang Tianshi had no reason to stop him.
Fortunately, someone reported the news, so she was able to pinch Huang Tianshi to go to the Wanshu Garden every time he was going to the main hall.
When she was fine, she walked around the garden. Then I met Mrs. Duan, who was also strolling in the garden, and this time she was followed by Duan Zhiqin.
Mrs. Duan walked towards Yu Nianniang with a smile on her face, she looked at the clear sky, and said, "The weather is good, Miss Yu also came out to visit the garden?" ”
"Yes! Mrs. Duan is so coincidental. Yu Nianniang said with a smile and looked behind Mrs. Duan.
Duan Zhiqin showed a friendly smile to Yu Nianniang, and saluted her first, Duan Zhiqin at this time was more beautiful than when she was in Taiyuan Mansion, Tingting was jade, but her face was not as ruddy as before, and her spirit did not seem to be very good.
Yu Nianniang looked at Duan Zhiqin and said with a smile: "Miss Duan is getting better and better. He said suspiciously: "It's just that this face is a little not good, although the summer resort is a good place to enjoy the shade, after all, there is still some distance between Taiyuan and the capital." Is Miss Duan a little uncomfortable? ”
Duan Zhiqin's expression was a little unnatural, and Mrs. Duan immediately explained: "Xu didn't rest well last night. Then he turned to Duan Zhiqin and said, "Since you are not feeling well, go back and rest first, and I will accompany Miss Yu to go shopping for a while." ”
Duan Zhiqin saluted Yu Nianniang, and when she left with a personal attendant, Mrs. Duan looked at Yu Nianniang and said apologetically: "This girl's skin is getting thinner and thinner, and she mentioned Miss Yu to me a few days ago, but she doesn't even know how to speak when she sees the girl at this time!" ”
Yu Nianniang only smiled.
Seeing that she didn't speak, Mrs. Duan had no choice but to say, "She is young and has nothing to do, so please forgive the girl if she is not polite!"
Yu Nianniang looked sideways at Mrs. Duan and said strangely, "Where did Mrs. start with this?"
Mrs. Duan's face flashed unnaturally: "The girl is smiling." He hesitated and looked around.
There was no one else in the garden except for a few cicadas.
Wucai followed closely behind Yu Nianniang and waited, while the subordinates of the Duan Mansion were separated by a distance.
Mrs. Duan pursed her lips, sped up her feet, and walked shoulder to shoulder with Yu Nianniang: "Girl......" hesitated and said in a low voice: "I'm afraid of the girl's jokes, so I didn't dare to say some things."
Yu Nianniang looked at Mrs. Duan.
Mrs. Duan's face was embarrassed.
"Our family Zhiqin really admires Miss Yu very much, and she especially hopes to make friends with people like the girl, but unfortunately, she is not willing to come to the summer resort this time, but there are some things we can't refuse...... I haven't had much appetite these days, and people have lost a lot, and last night they took my hand and said they wanted to go back to Taiyuan......"
Saying that, Mrs. Duan had tears in her eyes, she was afraid of being seen, so she hurriedly took a handkerchief and wiped the corners of her eyes: "It's also my fault, I have to take her into Beijing, if she stays in Taiyuan Mansion, there will be no such things...... Our family Zhiqin looks young and ignorant, in fact, she understands everything, and she also understands what she wants, who would have thought that ......" Mrs. Duan covered her mouth with a handkerchief, and tears flowed down her face.
The two of them were now standing in front of a cluster of flowers, and the people were standing far away. Colorful stood behind with her head bowed and her eyes down, like an ornament.
Yu Nianniang frowned slightly: "Lord Duan and Mrs. Duan didn't think about finding a family for Miss Duan."
"Why haven't you thought about it?" Mrs. Duan said: "But didn't the princes have decided on a concubine before?" The concubine said everything, but in the end, the second prince chose Sizhen. ”
Yu Nianniang suddenly understood.
"Although Duanfu is not the home of the prince, our lord is a member of the third grade, and the third brother is also an official of the fourth grade, how can two girls in the same house serve a prince at the same time, besides, the official rank of our lord is higher than that of the third brother!"
Yu Nianniang listened to Mrs. Duan's words in a daze, and it took a while to come back to her senses, she looked at Mrs. Duan, and was sure that it was Mrs. Duan she had seen in Taiyuan Mansion.
But what I said felt completely different from the previous times. In her impression, Mrs. Duan should be an assertive and intelligent person!
But what I said just now, it was clear that Mrs. Duan wanted Miss Duan to find a good mother-in-law, and she happened to meet the prince to choose a concubine, and under the instruction of Concubine Tong, she reached a wish in her heart, but unfortunately, the second prince's concubine is Duan Sizhen, and Duan Lixing's grade is lower than Duan Licheng's, how can Duan Zhiqin pull her face down to be a side concubine?
