186 The concubine of the Zhang family took pity on the concubine

Because of the jealousy of the princess regent and Lin Qixu's low mood, she has not stepped out of the gate of the palace for a long time, and she didn't even go to Zuo Xiaotang's gift, but only asked someone to bring some rare and interesting gifts to express her heart. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

The person who replied from Zuo Fu was also polite, and said with a smile: "Our young lady said it, forget it this time." Next time, be sure to ask the side concubine to appreciate her face and go over to sit down. ”

Xiaotang has been married, and her husband is the eldest grandson of Sun University, who is quite old, has outstanding appearance, reads well, and is a person who is studying in Guozijian.

Lin Qixu understood that the next time she said was the day of Xiaotang's wedding.

"Yes, please rest assured."

She smiled gently, and ordered Yanzhu to reward Mama a little, and sent it out politely.

Yan Zhu knew that his master had been depressed recently, and asked, "Miss Zuo, I really miss you." Most of the others have a vague disdain for the Lin family, even if there is occasional flattery, it is only for the sake of her favor, most people are more willing to please the regent princess who has a noble family background and has both children.

After all, the princess has always been very good at being a person, familiar with things, and has a kind attitude.

"A child is a child after all, and she will know more when she gets married." At that time, I will also understand that being too close to a concubine is not a good thing for the young grandmother of the prince's mansion.

Lin Qixu looked at a few yellowed scriptures and muttered to himself, "It seems that I haven't been to ask the concubine for a long time." "Even Megumi hasn't met him in a while.

"No, it seems, it's been a long time." Yanzhu Road.

"Has the princess ever been in the palace?" Lin Qixu asked suddenly.

Yan Zhu was dazed for a while, and then said uncertainly: "Come in, it should be the county lord's birthday in a few days, even if it won't be a big deal, but a little excitement is inevitable." Our county lord is a troublesome child. ”

Rong Xian is innocent and playful, soft-hearted, and has a lot of words, unlike the other young ladies who are silent and follow the rules, most of the people in the mansion talk about their county lord in a very kind and kind tone.

"This is the princess's beloved daughter, so naturally she will not be treated lightly."

A few days ago, it was the birthday of the second lady, and I didn't see the maid in the house mention it, the Han family once lost power, and was grounded in Jingchun Zhai with a bunch of subordinates to worship high and low, it is estimated that the son and daughter will also suffer with the Han family.

"Not only is the second miss's birthday just passed, but even the fourth miss's birthday is approaching." Lin Qixu remembered that it was no mistake, and You's youngest daughter was also born in the spring rainy season.

Yan Zhu echoed: "Well, most of the young ladies in our palace were born in spring and summer, unlike several young masters who were born in autumn and winter. ”

Peach Blossom, who was wiping the porcelain glass with a rag, turned her head when she heard this, and her face was full of ignorance: "Huh? Is it so exquisite? ”

"It's not exquisite, it's true." Yan Zhu spread his hands and said with a smile.

Peach Blossom's focus was in another place, and she clapped her hands suddenly: "Then Miss Yanxiao, she gave birth to a daughter?!" ”

Lin Qixu's eyebrows moved, and he couldn't help but think of other places.

Yan Zhu was still reasoning with Peach Blossom: "This is not necessarily, when Yan Xiao gives birth to a child, it is estimated that it is early autumn." Maybe it's a man or a woman? Listening to the people who served in the main courtyard, Yan Xiao's fetus with a pointed belly may be a boy. "Giving birth to a boy and a girl has a very different meaning, and the people in the house love to guess these the most.

"Oh, but I think the princess is very good to her, everything that is easy to use and easy to wear will be sent to Yan Xiao, if she really gives birth to a son, maybe she will be held in the main courtyard and raised. The future is bright. Peach Blossom's thoughts are simple and straightforward, and sometimes contradictory makes Lin Qixu laugh from the bottom of his heart.

Yan Zhu glanced at the master and gently tapped Peach Blossom's head.

"What do you say?" This is in front of the master.

In private, a few little maids can just break their mouths, but it is absolutely impossible to move them to the surface.

Lin Qi is also lenient, and he doesn't care much about the casual of the maids, and he changes to a bad temper, and from time to time he kills chickens and monkeys to teach his subordinates a lesson.

"When did Yan Xiao give birth?" It's probably July and August.

Yan Zhu said: "It's in the autumn." ”

Lin Qixu thought about it for a long time and decided to put Yan Xiao's matter aside first. Inadvertently, I thought of the trip to Fahua Temple, Huihe was still waiting for her to go with her to do rituals for the child, she couldn't be a shrunken turtle in the palace.

"Grab that misty purple blouse and go to the main courtyard."

Although Yan Zhu was surprised, she was different from the peach blossom who couldn't hide her words in her heart, and went to take it without saying a word, recently the princess treated her master lukewarmly, and lost her previous easy-goingness, Yan Zhu was able to capture a very deep defensive mentality from the princess's eyes when she looked at her master.

After Lin Qixu finished changing his clothes, he smiled lightly: "Tomorrow, I plan to go to the palace to ask the concubine for peace, but now is not as good as before, and I can enter and leave the palace at will." You always have to say hello to the princess beforehand. "In case she didn't report it, and the princess deliberately blamed her for her fault, Lin Qixu would never be able to tell.

"Well, that's fine." Save the princess from thinking about it.

As it turned out, Lin Qixu's foresight was very correct. The princess was extremely interested in her low posture, as if watching the concubines in front of her lower eyebrows was really peaceful.

"I said, what kind of wind is blowing you here today?" The princess, who was originally with her daughter's naughty doll, immediately broke away from Rong Xian, in case her ignorant daughter went to get close to the Lin family again.

Lin Qixu smiled and said, "I haven't entered the palace for a while. ”

"Well, indeed. Speaking of which, I may not have taken my two children to greet the concubine for a long time. "The princess can't let the Lin family continue to sit big, so she has to pull out the disaster from the root.

The Lin family was favored by the concubine, which made the prince feel very pleased.

The princess asked herself if she was not small-minded, and she didn't feel anything when she got along with the Lin family before. But once this relationship is stiffened, the mother-in-law's appreciation of the concubine will undoubtedly make her even more frightened.

Lin Qixu saw that the princess was squeezing her at every turn, and wanted to fight with her in front of the concubine, so he smiled faintly.

"If the princess doesn't dislike it, you might as well go into the palace with the concubine to honor the concubine." Concubine Rong's attitude towards the princess, the legitimate daughter-in-law, is about more than polite and not cordial, even if the voice of the princess is as gentle as Lin's, and the attitude is as kind, but there is absolutely no kind of liking in the bottom of her heart.

The princess saw that she accepted it calmly, and said with a smile: "If the prince learns, he will be pleased." Because she is busy with housework and has children to take care of, her filial piety to her mother-in-law is really insufficient.

Lin Qixu only smiled toothily and did not continue to answer.

The next day, the wind and the sun are beautiful, the spring gradually fades away from the cold of winter, the green of the branches is more and more vigorous and tender, the flowers and trees in the palace are precious, and at such a time, the plants and trees in the imperial garden have bloomed very lively.

Even outside the palace where Concubine Rong lived, an old pear tree bloomed.

The pear blossoms were white and soft, the petals were as bright as the moonlight, and a few of them fell on Lin Qixu's shoulders impartially, but she lowered her eyes, not knowing what she was thinking, and didn't notice it.

The princess glanced sideways, helped her dust it very familiarly, and said with a smile: "I don't know if you see that your pear blossom has fallen." ”

Yan Zhu glanced at the princess in surprise, who had natural movements and a good attitude.

What's going on?

Lin Qixu reacted in time, and immediately said with a smile: "There is Princess Lao." ”

The princess wanted to show her bearing and kindness as the wife of the main house in front of the concubine, and she didn't want the concubine to know that there was estrangement and unhappiness between the two of them.

Since they are accompanied into the palace, they always have to make an intimate appearance of a deputy wife and concubine and beauty.

This is also something that has been expected for a long time.

Although I am tired, there is no way to reject the necessary scenes.

Life is like a play, so why not act.

"What did Sister Lin say?" The princess admires Lin Qixu the most is that she is particularly aware of current affairs. However, this is based on Lin Qixu's intelligence, but the excessive sensitivity and wisdom gave the princess a headache.

"Let's go in, the concubine has been waiting for a long time."

How many pairs of eyes are looking, Lin Qixu replied stiffly, and there was always a smile on his lips.

"Okay." The princess said, then turned her head and asked the grandmother in front of her gently, "I just heard that someone else came to visit the concubine, does the grandmother know which family's daughter?" ”

Aunt Tao smiled neither humbly nor arrogantly when she heard this, and replied respectfully: "Back to the princess, it is the Chen family of the Zhang Mansion." Lin Qixu would see the Chen family who had accompanied the concubine from time to time, but he didn't expect that she would come here today.

However, the princess was obviously not familiar with this person, and asked with a smile: "But is it Qiushui next to the concubine?" ”

"Exactly, I brought my daughter over to greet the concubine today. The concubine took pity on her and prepared to keep the meal. Aunt Tao smiled lightly.

To tell the truth, the concubine is relatively withdrawn, and there is no way out for idlers to please her. A few years ago, the regent could be said to cover the sky and power in the court, I don't know how many people want to take the path of the concubine to tie up with the regent, but unfortunately few succeeded. Then these failed people continued to drill camps, mostly to make the wife and family curry favor with the head of the regent.

The princess's communication skills are first-class, her eyesight is excellent, and her ability to handle relationships is beyond doubt.

Therefore, the powerful ladies and daughters who walk around the concubine are becoming more and more rare.

Only this Chen can be said to have been moving around for ten years. It stands to reason that she is the concubine of Zhangfu, and the eldest daughter of Zhangfu is married to the second brother of the princess regent, and she is also half of her family, but the Chen family rarely goes to the palace.

It can be seen that he really has a heart for the concubine.

The princess knew all about this, and when she heard Aunt Tao say that the Chen family brought her daughter over, a light flashed between her eyebrows, and she asked casually: "Count, the daughter of the Chen family has also reached the age of marriage." ”

The wife of the main house of Zhang's mansion is a female dependent who the princess regent is not willing to associate with at all, not only has her bad reputation and bad conduct, but even the ladies of the mansion are messy, just looking at her brother-in-law's appearance, the princess regent basically has no expectations for Zhang Huisheng who is about to meet, and is even ready to be frightened.

Aunt Tao nodded and said, "Yes." That kid concubine likes it a lot. ”

Does it mean that you are ready to say that you are a family?

The princess smiled and thanked Aunt Tao and took this passage to heart. Since she is here to honor her mother-in-law, she has to do something practical, the concubine doesn't go out much, and she doesn't know anything about the appearance and family history of the marriageable children in the capital......

With the clarity of the princess's thinking, she has even considered what kind of medium to say to Zhang Huisheng.

It can not only satisfy the concubine and the Chen family, but also make the family readily agree.

After all, it is still difficult for the concubines of Zhang's mansion to marry perfectly.

Anyway, let's take a look at the girl's appearance.

The little Jiujiu Lin Qixu in the princess's heart looked at it one by one, but she didn't care at all, because in terms of understanding the official eunuchs in the capital, she couldn't compare to one Xie Li out of ten.

The main room is intent on scolding her mother-in-law, and she can't be stopped by a concubine.

It's just that......

Lin Qixu glanced at Aunt Tao very secretly.

If she saw it correctly, when the two of them mentioned Zhang Huisheng, Aunt Tao had a very helpless sigh in her eyes, and she didn't even look at the princess as straightforward as before.

This is difficult to explain for Aunt Tao, who has experienced strong winds and waves and has been operating in the palace for decades.

Why be embarrassed by the princess?

The only explanation is that Aunt Tao has a ghost in her heart.

It's about Zhang Huisheng and Chen, what can Aunt Tao do?

Probably the problem lies with the concubine.

Even if he saw through Aunt Tao's unnaturalness, Lin Qixu couldn't imagine the reason. No matter who looks at it, at most she can catch a trace of evasion and reluctance, and if you want to guess the truth, it is simply a fool's dream.

Because of some doubts, when Lin Qixu saw the concubine for the first time, his face was not only dazed, but also slightly sluggish.

It wasn't until the princess asked for peace first that she saluted after realizing it.

"Qixu, what's wrong?" Just from the tone and title, anyone can feel the concubine's affection for Lin Qixu.

This realization made Xie Li sigh in her heart.

My mother-in-law had never been so close to her.

Lin Qixu smiled and said, "It's just a little distracted." You don't have to worry. After speaking, she looked at the Chen family who was sitting with her but got up to say goodbye because of the arrival of the princess, and Zhang Huisheng who was sitting on a small pestle.

The mother and daughter are not very similar, Chen is wearing a simple homely shirt, the skirt is based on rare dark patterns of peach blossoms and pomegranates, looking at the corners of the hair is indeed old clothes, slightly revealing a sense of poverty, fortunately, there are a few good ornaments inserted in her bun, and her identity is suddenly revealed. Chen's temperament is good, and her facial features are delicate, but unfortunately her face is haggard, her body looks quite thin, and even her voice is full of a thick sick atmosphere, which can be seen to be a long-term illness in bed.

As for Zhang Huisheng's dress, Lin Qixu is quite amazing.

Compared to the previous time I saw her, she was much more beautiful, and her gestures were a little more gentle and elegant.

Zhang Huisheng, who is in the mood for love, is much more outstanding than his mother, with beautiful facial features, which is extremely suitable for patchwork together. The upper body is a red begonia coat, the moonlight skirt inside overlaps, the edge is a chiba hibiscus pattern, the hair is pinned with a delicate hairpin, decorated with shiny crystal beads, and a carved tassel gold hairpin flies out from the bun, adding a bit of proud beauty.

However, her expression didn't seem to be too good, and she pressed down the luxury and glamour of her clothes by three points.

Lin Qixu was extremely puzzled, could it be that the Chen family took Huisheng to the palace today to see each other? Otherwise, what do you want to do when you dress so gorgeously?

"Hello concubine." After greeting the princess, Chen continued to pull his daughter to greet Lin.

Lin Qixu's brows furrowed deeper, and he became more and more confused, after the first two contacts, it was not difficult for Lin Qixu to notice Chen's low-key and introverted behavior, and today's attitude and tone towards them...... Exceptionally different.

Less calm, more impatient.

There is even a hint of flattery.

Could it be that under the guidance of the concubine, she felt that the princess could be a matchmaker, and deliberately lowered her posture because of her daughter's marriage?

Probably that's the only way to explain it, right?

But I always felt that something was wrong.

Lin Qixu looked at the concubine's kind and gentle face, and then looked at Aunt Tao, who was slightly embarrassed, as for the princess, she had never been in contact with the Chen family, and she didn't know her character, so she felt that there was nothing wrong with her.

Seeing that there were more people flattering and flattering her, Xie Li had long been accustomed to it.

"I didn't expect my brother-in-law to have such a peugeot sister." The princess smiled and took Zhang Huisheng's hand and praised sincerely. Just by looking at the appearance, it is much stronger than the stupid daughter-in-law of the second brother.

The fact that my mother was engaged to her second brother back then was too hasty.

The Chen family knew the temperament of the eldest daughter of the Zhang Mansion very well, and when they saw that the princess did not continue the bad impression on Huisheng, they were relieved at first, and then silently glanced at the concubine.

"The princess has won the prize." Zhang Huisheng's expression was no more full of smile than his mother's, and he made a humble appearance. Lin Qixu faintly felt that it was not so much a low brow as a depressed and low eye.

Coupled with Zhang Huisheng's outfit today, it really doesn't look like he came to ask the concubine for peace.

It's like I'm here to show someone.

Look at each other......

Look at each other......

Lin Qixu muttered a few times in a low voice, and it was like a thunderbolt on a sunny day in his mind.

The princess was still holding Zhang Huisheng's hand vigorously, looking left and right, and praised a few words from time to time, what clothes are very beautiful, and her hair is neatly combed. Chen's face was full of red light when he heard this, and he kept echoing.

Only Zhang Huisheng's expression was extremely embarrassed, but he didn't dare to say anything, and pursed his mouth tightly.

"Such a good girl, did you say kiss?" The princess boasted in front of the concubine for a long time, and her mouth was a little dry, but she didn't see the concubine mention the marriage diligently, so she simply took the initiative to speak.

Chen's face darkened, and he still smiled: "Not yet." ”

How could there be? Zhang's family is not low, and Mr. Zhang is a temple secretary in Dali Temple, so it is impossible to be a son and daughter of a small family. Thanks to the blessings of a few aunts and grandmothers who got married, the young ladies of Zhangfu have a bad reputation, and with the addition of an unreliable housewife, there is no good family who is willing to marry the concubine of Zhangfu.

The concubines of ordinary official eunuchs often marry their concubines, or marry to fill the house. Lord Zhang originally climbed the family affairs of the Fuguo Mansion for the eldest daughter, just hoping that she could gain a firm foothold in the Guogong Mansion and seek decent family affairs for the younger sisters below, but she never expected that the eldest daughter was unreliable to such a point, not only failed to contribute to the family, but the reputation became more and more stinky, directly delaying the marriage of the younger sisters.

"Princess, you also understand that Huisheng was born in my belly, and she was naturally born no better than those daughters." Chen's tone was extremely low, and every word was sympathetic.

Lin Qixu felt more and more that her guess was correct, and then she couldn't help but look at the concubine's expression.

Speaking of which, the concubine basically never interfered in the affairs of her son's house, and even the former concubines were mostly regarded by the regent and his wife, at most there was a queen mother who intervened in many things, and the regent must be uncomfortable in his heart, even his own mother did not criticize him, and the queen mother took a lot of trouble to interfere in his marriage......

Take 10,000 steps back and say, if it is rare for the concubine to make such a request to her son, and it does not hurt the heavens and reason, Zhang Huisheng is the daughter of the official eunuch family in the end, with a peugeot appearance and a plump body, and the regent has no position to refuse at all.

As for the princess......

I guess I have to happily talk about it.

After all, so many warblers and Yanyan have tolerated it, and it is nothing to have one more concubine as a concubine.

The princess has always been shrewd, and Chen's enthusiasm and flattery seem to have exceeded her expectations, and even the concubine didn't say anything when she was around, which shows that everything is tacit.

She glanced at Lin Qixu casually, but saw that the other party was looking in the direction of Zhang Huisheng, and his eyes were slightly emotional, which was extremely complicated.

The princess was also stunned for a while, until Lin Qixu looked back and gave a gentle smile.

"Huisheng, take out your embroidered purse and show it to the princess." Chen looked at the princess and Lin Qixu looking at each other, thinking that they had guessed something, and the handkerchief was about to break when they twisted their fingers.

Zhang Huisheng glanced at his mother very reluctantly when he heard this, but he was frightened by the anxiety and urgency in Chen's eyes, and bit his lip and took out the pre-prepared sachet and purse from his sleeve.

At this time, the princess was more vigilant about the mother and daughter, put aside the original sense of relaxation and comfort, frequently observed the words, quietly took over Zhang Huisheng's purse, and said with a light smile: "The girl's family is young, and she embroiders well." ”

Chen Shi saw that she didn't stop her eyes on the purse at all, and continued to lick her face and said: "My family Huisheng, although his temperament is not calm enough, he is usually very sensible, and he will never dare to disobey his elders." ”

In other words, if you enter the mansion and serve a husband with you in the future, you will never compete with you for the limelight.

But Chen really didn't have the courage to make it clear to the princess.

"Yes, the little girl's family, where did you have the courage to be disobedient, let's just joke a few words, it's not good for Huisheng's reputation to spread it." The strangeness of the matter was beyond the princess's expectations, she thought about almost all the marriageable men related to the Xie family, but she couldn't figure out why.

But Zhang Huisheng is obviously here to see her today!

means that she can basically decide the success or failure of this marriage.

The princess's head became more and more confused, and she didn't pay much attention to the compliments behind the Chen family, and at most catered to a few words, and the originally fiery atmosphere in the room suddenly cooled down.

Chen was embarrassed and at a loss, and he didn't even know where to put his hands and feet.

Lin Qixu entered the house and began to say a few words to the concubine, and he had been beside him as a stuffy gourd, at this time, seeing that the Chen family was in a dilemma, Fang stepped forward and pulled her past and said with a smile: "I haven't seen you for a long time, I'm afraid that we will go together to say goodbye to the eldest princess in the future." ”

Chen smiled gratefully: "Yes, yes, yes." The last time I met the eldest princess in the palace, she also mentioned you to me. ”

At this time, Concubine Rong, who was speechless, opened Chrysostom: "You two don't have to go over deliberately, Huihe will also come to the palace today, wait until you go to the Queen Mother to order a meal, and then come over." ”

The princess couldn't guess Chen's thoughts, for fear of what she would lose, so she didn't bother to take care of her, and carefully and gently curry favor with her serious mother-in-law.

If you want to say that the most silent person in the room is not Lin Qixu, it is naturally Zhang Huisheng.

The people present were all taller than her, and all of them were married women, unlike her, a big girl, who stood here and didn't know what to say.

"Qixu, there are a few boxes of fashionable silk flowers in the west wing, you can take Chen and Huisheng to pick two." The concubine closed her eyes before she said in a refined tone.

The princess's heart was tight, and the concubine wanted to leave her to speak alone.

It's better than not knowing anything.

Chen's expression was sad, and he took Huisheng's hand and swallowed it slowly, but Lin Qixu saw that Huisheng gasped heavily, obviously not suitable for facing the scene of the concubine and the princess.

There are indeed several large boxes of unique hairpins and hairpins in the west wing, as well as some brocades with good materials and bright colors, all of which are prepared by the concubine for Chen's mother and daughter.

Zhang Huisheng is young in the end, and she is a pretty girl, and she has no love for beautiful clothes and jewelry. Lin Qixu intended to make her happier, and after a few words with her, he finally made the little girl laugh.

Chen's attitude towards Lin Qixu was much warmer than before, and he inquired: "Looking at the concubine, the princess treats the concubine room with a pleasant face, and her attitude is excellent. "It's no better than the housewife in her house, who can't wait to sell them all.

This is true, even if the princess is embarrassed, she is still smiling.

"The princess is more tolerant, and she has a good relationship with the prince." Lin Qixu picked out some useful words and said that the first half of the sentence was to reassure the Chen family that the princess was not a jealous lady, but rather virtuous and generous; The second half of the sentence can be regarded as a wake-up call for the Chen family, saving the mother and daughter from relying on the power of the concubine, and the princess in the palace added blockage, thinking that with the support of the mother-in-law, they could cross the main house.

This sentence is all for their good.

Chen naturally understood, his expression became more comfortable, and he looked at his daughter who was picking pearl flowers not far away, his tone lowered a little, and he said extremely humbly: "The side concubine has seen it?" ”

No wonder the concubine Lao Quarin is smart, just this is better than the princess's agility, she went back and reminded her daughter not to offend the Lin family.

Lin Qixu felt a little compassion and replied, "You have done a little too much, and the princess is only afraid that it will be uncomfortable." ”

Originally, the princess thought that she was helping Zhang Yunsheng to match the matchmaker, but the object of the matchmaker was too ...... What, it turned out to be her husband.

"What then?" Chen suddenly panicked.

Before the daughter enters the house, is she going to open the main room? How will you live in the future?

Lin Qixu immediately reassured: "The princess faces so many concubines every day, and she is somewhat uncomfortable in her heart, this is normal, no one likes these to rob themselves of men, and their children to rob their father's concubines and their children." ”

"Fortunately, the princess is not vicious, and she is generous to the obedient concubines, otherwise the prince and the concubine will not like her so much." Lin Qixu nodded the word obedient quietly.

The Chen family understands now, when entering the palace to be a concubine, you must lower your eyebrows and be pleasing to the eyes, and it is absolutely not okay to step on the face of the main house with the intention of raising your toes.

How could her innocent daughter fight the princess so well?

Besides, how stable the princess's family background is like Mount Tai, which family is comparable.

Chen didn't even think so.

"It can be seen that you have a good relationship with the princess, Concubine Hui, and when you enter the mansion after Hui's birthday, I hope you will mention more, don't let her do something that offends people." Chen pleaded in a low voice.

Lin Qixu didn't agree, but asked: "You are also a child, why do you want your daughter to embark on the same path of no return as you, how can you be willing to let your daughter suffer again." ”

The words were asked harshly, but Lin Qixu really couldn't figure out why the Chen family was willing to let her daughter go through her old path again after she had eaten enough of the pain of being a child, was the Chen family crazy?

Her mother, Jiang, before she died, still hoped that she would not give her as a concubine.

It's a pity that she is not filial, she should have lived up to her biological mother's wishes, and she is still guilty of it.

Chen never expected Lin Qixu to ask about this, he was simply sad, and his eyes turned red in an instant. Her voice was low and hoarse, like weaving: "It's really a last resort." I originally wanted to find a family with a kind and simple family to be a relative, so that Huisheng could live a peaceful and healthy life for the rest of his life, and there was no need to intrigue anymore. To be precise, a few years ago, I walked around, supported many people, and took a fancy to a few families, basically all of which were scholarly families. It's just that later, the reputation of the ladies of Zhangfu was bad, and the most decent one was the side branch of the family, so they were reluctant, and the other families also had better daughter-in-law candidates. In the final analysis, Huisheng is a concubine after all, and if he is a concubine, it will be much easier to talk about relatives. ”

Lin Qixu himself is a concubine, and he understands the pain here. She smiled and condensed, "So are you willing to let your granddaughter continue on this path?" Huisheng entered the palace, and her daughter was also a concubine unexpectedly. ”

The reincarnation of fate is extremely cruel, generation after generation, the concubine and the concubine are together, where can the children born go, and the concubine goes to be a concubine, and he can't raise his head for the rest of his life.

"I don't know, but I don't hide it from you, the concubine's body is getting worse day by day, and she has almost been sick in bed all these years, relying on decoction to continue her life. If Huisheng is half as smart as you and the princess, even if I show this old face, I will beg the concubine to find a family for her to marry as a wife. In the future, I can also live in the concubine room and deal with my mother-in-law. But Huisheng didn't have enough eyes in her heart......" Chen said that he almost wanted to cry, and his tone was choked.

A woman's marriage can be described as everything in the second half of her life.

Not only do you have to coax the son born by your husband, but you also have a bunch of three aunts and six mothers-in-law, concubines and concubines to deal with.

If Chen is in good health, he may be able to carefully choose two years for his daughter, but Huisheng is getting older and older year by year, Chen's body is getting worse day by day, and the urgency of being a mother cannot be expressed in words.

"It's good that the princess can tolerate people, Huisheng has no courage or ability to go against her. If you are lucky enough to give birth to a son and a half daughter, Huisheng will have the rest of her life to rely on, with the identity of the palace, life will not be bad, at least you will have no worries about food and clothing. "Even if it is for the sake of the concubine's face, the regent will always take care of it, and it will not end up miserable.

After thinking about it, Chen almost thought of all the accidents that could be considered, and felt more and more that the regent palace was really good, the princess was famous, her family was prominent, and she had both children.

At most, there are some occasional beatings and pinching, but with Huisheng's thick nerves, whether he can feel it or not is a matter of two words.

Pity the hearts of parents all over the world......

However, Chan seems to have forgotten one thing.

"I won't talk about the rest, Huisheng is your daughter, and you can only come for her good." Chen is not the kind of person who sells women for glory and expects to be rich and noble.

Lin Qixu whispered: "Don't forget, the emperor is already in power. "At this time, if you marry your daughter to the palace, aren't you afraid that your daughter will be affected?

Chen was conscientious about his daughter's marriage, how could he not have expected this. She said gently, "I thought of it." So I'm waiting for next year's draft. The concubine was also opposed at first, but then reluctantly agreed, saying that she would greet the prince. ”

The regent has been entrenched in the government and the opposition for several years, and his power is deep-rooted, and if the little emperor does not have the absolute intention of eradication, it is extremely difficult to purge his henchmen in a short time. And Chen asked the concubine privately, and the concubine promised her, and Chen was not worried.

"That's fine, does Huisheng know?" Looking at Zhang Huisheng's reluctant expression, it is probably clear.

Lin Qixu looked at Zhang Huisheng who was still happy and took care of his own jewelry, and felt sad for the child's future.

Another good boy is going to be buried in the Regent's Palace.

Chen said in a low voice: "It's so obvious today, what else does she not understand." ”

However, the daughter's reluctance is not a day or two, she is not in good health, Huisheng does not want to leave her mother to marry at all, and sometimes she will say: "Mother, why are you so worried about my marriage, it is great to be a sister-in-law." ”

At that time, Chen was so angry that he even smashed the medicine bowl, and held his throat to reprimand her: "Do you think my mother is willing?" But if you don't arrange a marriage now, what will you do when your mother goes? Do you want me to die and not be able to close my eyes? ”

Hui Sheng was filial to her mother, and when she saw that she was really angry, she immediately shut up.

But the stubbornness and grievances in his eyes can't be hidden from Chen.

Chen continued to speak earnestly: "If you marry well and win the favor of your husband and in-laws, in case your mother is bullied and wronged at home, you can still come back to support your mother." Otherwise, what qualifications and positions do you have to blame your elders and sisters? ”

Chan was able to catch his daughter's sudden flash of glint eyes.

It is rare to have a reason to convince her daughter to marry, and Chen added fuel to her daughter to instill all kinds of benefits after marriage. Under her persuasion like chanting mantras day after day, Huisheng finally became less reluctant to marry.

But for doing this thing, wanting to let go of it for a moment is tantamount to a fool's dream.

Lin Qixu played with the warm jade Ruyi in his hand, and laughed silently: "I hope you and Huisheng will not regret it in the future." "This road is a road of no return, and it is destined to have no other thoughts and expectations.

Chen pondered for a long time before asking, "Does the concubine regret it?" ”

A few years ago, the news of Lin's entry into the mansion was spread in the capital, and even today, some people will see her pointing fingers, carefully talking about the past behind her back, and talking about it.

Lin Qixu didn't have the cheek to answer 'yes'.

He just replied very lightly: "The path I chose is different." But the future your daughter is going to go in is not her choice, it is you who choose for her. ”

The difference may not be tasted for many years.

The path you choose, even if you kneel, you have to finish it.

But how can someone else choose the path for her to grit her teeth willingly?

The Chen family obviously didn't expect the Lin family to answer like this, after all, she had suffered from being a concubine, and sighed after a long time: "Indeed, I'm not sure that this path is the best, but with the current conditions, it is the best for Huisheng." My daughter, born with a lack of tendons, is insensitive and doesn't think much, so I don't know how many hearts I have broken, for fear that she will be eaten alive by others if she is not careful. ”

Lin Qixu smiled gently, sensitive and thoughtful, wasn't she talking about it?

"If Huisheng is really the kind of character you say, he may really have a good life when he enters the palace." Being a concubine is a legal profession in this world, although it will be spurned by others, but it does not exclude many people who still yearn for and chase.

Chen was quite convinced, and said, "If I don't even know my own daughter, how can I be willing to send her on this road." It's just the princess's temperament ......"

This is to hope that Lin Qi will say a lot about the true nature of the princess.

Lin Qixu did not live up to a mother's heart, and said with a smile: "The princess is kind, the rewards and punishments are clear, the backyard is organized under her control, and there is no such thing as deducting the concubine's room." As for the essence of the relationship between wives and concubines, it is nothing more thanβ€”"

She paused slightly.

"What is it?" Chen couldn't wait to ask.

"There has never been a well water in this world that does not interfere with the river water, either the east wind overpowers the west wind, or the west wind overshadows the east wind, and there must always be one between wives and concubines, and there can be no two tigers in one mountain, and there can be no two suns in one sky." In other words, if you want to have peace in the backyard, it is best if the main wife can suppress all the concubines.

Chen was silent for a while, and said: "I don't want anything else, if Huisheng can have a son and a half daughter, life will be much better." "There is too much difference between a person who is struggling to live and being able to keep a child growing up slowly.

After speaking, Chen remembered that Lin Qixu in front of him had not given birth for more than two years, and had lost his child in a very painful way, and his face instantly brought out a little unnatural, and he smiled.

Lin Qixu turned his head and glanced at Huisheng a few times, completely ignoring Chen's embarrassment, and said with a smile: "I think your daughter is a good child." "Zhang Huisheng has a plump figure, unlike her who doesn't have a few taels of flesh on her body, and she is so thin.

Thinking about it this way, Lin Qixu felt that Zhang Huisheng's life in the palace might really be good, the regent's attention to the heirs made this man more evenly exposed to the women in the backyard, and he would go to sit more or less twice a month, Huisheng had the face of Concubine Rong, as long as his stomach was angry, it was no problem to gain a firm foothold in the palace.

Chen also smiled: "I only hope that Huisheng is more blessed than me." ”

It's good to be able to win a man in one fell swoop.

Lin Qixu finished adding this sentence for Chen in his heart.

"Mother, I've picked it out." Zhang Huisheng was a little curious about Lin Qixu, and her eyes turned around a few times, but her eyes were clear, her expression was simple, and she looked very easy to get along with.

In less than a year, Lin Qixu and this Zhang Huisheng will meet in the palace every day.

Creation is really confusing.

She glanced at the main hall where there was no movement, and continued: "If you like, pick some more, they are all prepared for you by the concubine." "It's all the things that little girls like, Lin Qixu is not interested in these concubines know.

Zhang Huisheng pursed his lips to hide the joy in his heart, but asked, "Don't you choose some of the side concubines?" ”

"I'm not very interested in that." Lin Qixu smiled lightly and shook his head.

"What does the concubine like?" Huisheng was simple in his thinking and curious.

Lin Qixu smiled slightly, paused for a moment before saying, "I usually like to read, or take a walk, it's good." The words are very general, but in retrospect, she really doesn't have a hobby for this thing, and usually lives a very casual life.

Because there is no goal, occasionally I will live at a loss.

"Has the concubine read a lot of books?" Huisheng asked endlessly.

Fortunately, Lin Qixu was well cultivated, and said with a light smile: "It's all to pass the time." "It's been a long time in the palace, how can I get through it if I don't think of a way.

"What about you?" In case he had been in a passive position, Lin Qixu simply took the initiative to ask Huisheng.

Huisheng pouted and said, "My mother has been forcing me to learn embroidery. She also glanced at her unaware mother with resentment, her cheeks bulging, and she looked very cute.

Embroidery――

If you want Lin Qixu to come and see, this is really a useless thing.

It can neither entrap a man, nor can it make himself more connotative. At most, he has a reputation for being ingenious and virtuous, but Zhang Huisheng wants to be small, and it is destined to be useless if he is good at embroidery, so he will embroider some objects to honor the princess and concubine, and if he is favored, he may be able to make some shoes and socks to please the regent.

However, Lin Qixu didn't say anything, she smiled and said a few words to help Chen: "Your mother wants you to embroider, not how well you embroider, but just wants you to be quiet and don't jump out so much." "Especially to be small, to be low-key and cautious, how can you love to stand out in everything.

Huisheng rubbed a few fingers that had been poked by needles aggrievedly, and continued to complain: "Mother doesn't think like this, she is too strict with me. ”

Chen used to be a needlework palace maid next to the concubine, and her skills in embroidering female red were very high, and she gave birth to a clumsy daughter, not to mention how troublesome it was to educate her.

Aunt Tao also teased her: "I didn't expect you to be so ingenious in Qiushui, but your daughter fell out." ”

Chen had to smile bitterly when he heard this.

"You can be content, you may not have to be so strict in the future." After getting married, I will understand how happy my life in my mother's house is, Lin Qixu smiled lightly.

This sentence is straightforward and vulgar, and Huisheng understands it very well even if she is not a woman with nine bends and eighteen bends.

For a while, Huisheng was silent, but looked at his mother thoughtfully.

Chen looked at the fabrics and jewelry with little interest at this time, although her youth was gone, and there was not even much time left, but Huisheng's life had just begun, how could the girls be without clothes and accessories. (To be continued.) )
