Chapter 15: Schadenfreude
Leng Yixiu looked at the door of his house, and for the first time he had a hesitation that he didn't dare to enter the door.
What should I do about the affairs of Rongfu? Do you want to sue SΓΉ Rongxi? If she doesn't say it, she can only keep peace for a while, and she will know sooner or later, if she does...... So what will happen to her?
The guards behind him were a little puzzled, what happened to the prince today? When I entered the palace, I was so anxious that I didn't see anything as soon as I slipped away, but now I didn't go in when I got home, and I stood at the door for almost an hour.
But although I wondered in my heart, no one dared to move, more than a dozen people stood in front of the gate of the house like clay carving stone sculptures, and the people who came and went couldn't help but stop and watch from afar, this god of war who is usually rare to see, is really as heroic as the legend, the jade tree is in the wind, just ...... Why do you look a little dumb?
The low voice of the crowd attracted Taohong, who had just returned from shopping on the street, and she was carefully counting the things in her hand, and she must take a good look at them, otherwise, she would be beaten and scolded by Concubine Su again.
"Huh?" Looking up and seeing many people gathered in front of the gate of the mansion, she went over curiously, and saw the prince standing in front of the door with the guards from a distance, not knowing what he was doing.
"Hey, I heard, something big happened in Rongfu today," one of the people in the crowd whispered.
"What's wrong? What's wrong? Someone immediately asked.
"Before dawn, a large number of people passed by my house, and the situation was ...... Tsk, I was so scared that I thought it was an earthquake, but then I found out that wow......"
"What the hell is going on?" Someone was dissatisfied with this person's betrayal and hurriedly asked.
Taohong also listened with her ears open, only to hear the man continue: "The Rong family was copied, and it was said that it was ...... General Rong collaborated with the enemy and betrayed the country, and he wanted to be beheaded all over the house. β
"Huh? Won't it......"
"Don't say it, don't say it, it's a matter of the court......"
Peach Hong's heart jumped when she heard it, Rong family! Isn't that the princess's maiden family? Could it be ...... The prince stood in front of the gate of the mansion and did not return for a long time, has something to do with this matter? It must be!
She hurriedly carried her skirt to the back door of the palace, and trotted all the way, this news is too important, tell Concubine Su, there will definitely be a reward!
"Madame...... Madame ......" cried out as soon as Peach entered the house.
"What's the noise? panicked, startling Mrs. Ben. Su Ting sat in front of the dresser, holding a gilded ruby hairpin in her hand, and was gesturing on her head.
"Ma'am," Pink looked around and leaned over lightly.
"What? Hell-witted, stand farther away, the smell of sweat on your body is about to kill Mrs. Ben. Su Ting glanced at her, and the hairpin in her hand was put heavily on the table, "You are in a good mood." β
"Madam, the slave promises that you will be in a good mood after hearing this." Peach was dissatisfied, but with a flattering smile on her face.
"Oh? What's the good thing? Su Ting looked at her hands lazily, and her fingertips were coated with nail polish made of rose juice, which was very colorful.
"The slave maid just heard on the street that the Rong family was copied, and they want to be beheaded all over the house." After Peach said eagerly, her face turned red.
"What?" Su Ting Huo Ran turned around, and grabbed Taohong's arm tightly with both hands, her nails were long, and Taohong was a little painful to scratch.
"Madame...... It's true. Peach held back the pain and didn't dare to move.
"Rong family, is it the maiden family of that slut in Rong Xi?" Su Ting couldn't believe her ears, the news came too suddenly, it was too shocking.
"Yes, yes." Peach nodded hurriedly, "Madam, did you say this is good news?" β
"Not bad, haha......" Su Ting withdrew her hand, her face fluttered, and Peach quietly stroked her arm and exhaled.
Rong Xi swayed the swing slowly, the leaves rustled overhead, and from time to time a small bird flapped its wings and flew happily, she looked up, and the fine sunlight was like gold, which made her squint.
Her long hair was scattered, not combed into a complicated bun, just gently pinned with a hosta, a small pearl fell in the corner of her forehead, she raised her head slightly, the sun shone on her face, the snow-white skin was like a jade luster, the long eyebrows flew upward, the thick eyelashes drooped lightly, outlining a small shadow on the face, the small tip of the nose, the red lips were lightly opened, and a plain little face was smeared with a trace of color, but it was the most beautiful and beautiful spring in the world.
When Su Ting stepped into the door, she saw such a picture.
It is really a picture, and the woman in the picture is white and fluttering, like a fairy......
Su Ting clenched her fists, suppressed her hatred, and thought to herself, why didn't you kill her that day, damn it, she actually brought her back to life, it was really hard, and then she thought of the misfortune of the Rong family, she felt a burst of happiness in her heart, hum, no matter how beautiful you are, no matter how hard your life is, this time you will be a ghost under the knife!
"The princess is well...... she twisted her waist and feet slightly, stepped on the lotus step slowly, and her tone rose slightly, with a secret sarcasm.
Rong Xi sighed in his heart, it was really a day of stopping, this person was all with the marquee, this one came and that one came, and now this one is here again.
She remained in her original position, motionless.
"Hmph," Su Ting saw that her attack was not answered, the small flame in her heart bubbled up and was pressed down, and she pulled the delicate embroidered cuffs and said, "I really don't know, where did you get this good interest?" β
Rong Xi turned his head to look at the green branches and vines on the armrest of the swing, and felt that every leaf on it was cuter than the woman who was standing and talking nonsense.
"Xiao'er," Taohong stood up at the right time, looking like a villain, "How do you do things?" Why don't you bring a stool for our wife? β
Xiao'er instinctively wanted to go, turned her heels, and found that Rong Xi's bright eyes were looking at her, remembering the changes in the past two days, she pursed her lips and said, "The slave listens to the princess, you and I are both Yahuan, why should I listen to you?" Let alone...... Concubine Su stood and replied to the princess, and there was nothing wrong with it. β
"You ......" Peach blushed angrily, what's wrong, why are the people in the Red Sleeve Garden getting angry one by one?
Su Ting's face turned pale, and her eyes suddenly became cold, although she was in the side concubine, she hated that others called her like this, so she called herself "Mrs. Ben", and the slave and maid mothers who knew this also consciously called her "Mrs." β
Now, when a girl like Xiao'er mentions the matter of the side concubine in front of her, how can she not be angry?
"Side concubine?" Su Ting sneered, and her tone couldn't help but tremble a little, "Yes, I am indeed a side concubine now, but ...... It is estimated that she will become a princess soon! β
