Chapter 53. Truth
The next morning, it was time to go to the usual morning exercise with King Jin. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. biquge。 infoKing Jin took Princess Jin to Wang Shao's house.
As a result, soon after entering the door, I found Wang Shao sitting on the steps, and his back looked very lonely.
The two looked at each other, as if to say that something was indeed the case. stepped forward to greet Wang Shao.
"Master!"
Hearing King Jin call himself, Wang Shao stood up and planned to start his morning exercise. When I turned around and saw that Princess Jin was also here, I was surprised.
"Princess Jin is pregnant, why did she come to the place where the old ministers exercised in the morning? If you accidentally get hurt, it's not good. ”
"I was worried that she would get hurt, but she had to come. Can Mrs. Wang take her for a walk around the neighborhood? King Jin picked up the plane and talked about Mrs. Wang.
"This ......" Wang Shao looked very embarrassed. Although he tried his best to hide it, the Jin Wang and his wife had already seen his embarrassment.
The two glanced at each other and ignored Wang Shao's embarrassment.
"Ai Concubine, ask more people in the palace for advice and education, her old man is also a mother who has given birth to several children, and she will definitely gain something."
"Yes, Your Highness! I'll be sure to ask for more advice. ”
Without waiting for Wang Shao to come up with an excuse for refusal, the two Jin Wang and his wife had already set up a position there to meet Mrs. Wang.
Wang Shao was forced to have no choice, so he had to ask someone to invite Mrs. Wang, saying that the King of Jin and the Princess of Jin were here and needed her to take care of the princess.
The person sent there hadn't seen him for a long time, and Wang Shao seemed a little flustered. He stood up and said he needed to go back and get something, and went inside.
After a long time, Mrs. Wang finally followed Wang Shao out.
"See King Jin, see Princess Jin!" Madame Wang said and curtsy.
Although she was polite and thoughtful on the surface, she could clearly see the gloom on her brow. Seems very unhappy.
Seeing this situation, King Jin didn't want Princess Jin to be alone with her. This woman didn't think she was going to do anything dangerous at any time.
Princess Jin saw King Jin's worries, smiled and shook her head at him, telling him not to worry.
So, King Jin followed Wang Shao to the morning exercise as usual. Mrs. Wang took Princess Jin to the back garden for a walk.
Except for some polite words, Mrs. Wang rarely spoke again. Princess Jin tried hard to talk to her, but she always found it a little difficult.
Princess Jin saw that she was depressed, so she didn't reluctantly talk to her, but just silently followed and walked casually. Keep an eye out for everything inside this mansion.
At this time, a child about ten years old ran out, and the maid behind chased and shouted: "Childe! Son! Be careful, don't run too fast and fall! ”
The little boy ran up to Mrs. Wang and stopped, "Mother, can you get out of bed and take a walk today?" Come, the child holds you. ”
Mrs. Wang was obviously moved when she heard the little boy's words, but she didn't want others to see her emotions. Trying to maintain a calm expression and said to the child: "I've seen Princess Jin soon!" ”
"See Princess Jin!" The child said, bowing.
Princess Jin looked at this lively and lovely child, such a young child, and there was a little sadness in her eyes. Apparently infected by the emotions of his parents.
"What's your name?"
"Back to the princess, my name is Wang He."
"Come on, let's play!"
"Okay!"
The child followed the princess of Jin as he walked and jumped.
Princess Jin asked him, "Why are you so happy today?" ”
"Because my mother can finally walk on the ground."
"Don't talk nonsense, little ones." Madame Wang immediately stopped his next words.
Princess Jin glanced at Mrs. Wang. took her hand and sat on a chair in the pavilion.
"Mrs. Wang, what happened?"
Looking at the silent Mrs. Wang, Princess Jin determined that the problem was here.
"If there's anything you can't get by, just tell me, we're all women, and we always understand each other. If there is anything that can help, I will definitely help. ”
Madame Wang glanced at Princess Jin and broke the silence just now. Crying loudly, he threw himself into the arms of Princess Jin.
The tears that Mrs. Wang had suppressed for a long time finally broke the embankment, and she couldn't get a drop of water in bed these days. I couldn't say a word for days, and I wanted to cry but couldn't shed tears.
Princess Jin watched Mrs. Wang cry quietly for a long time before she slowly raised her head and slowly told Princess Jin what happened.
It turned out that last time Wang Shao advised King Jin to stop the palace back garden project. The emperor rewarded him with some brocade and four beauties.
"Damn it, he actually had feelings for these demon girls. It was intended that one of them should be taken as a concubine. How can this kind of thing be tolerated? ”
It turned out to be such a thing, and it would be easier to follow up after knowing the origin of the matter.
"Didn't you hear that many princes and nobles have three wives and four concubines?" Princess Jin said tentatively.
"Those who have three wives and four concubines are not good things. If I was in the company of such a person, I might as well die. ”
"I think Lord Wang has been very unenergetic recently, and he should know that he was wrong. If there is any misunderstanding, the two of them would sit down and discuss. ”
"These maids, I said when the emperor first rewarded them, just serve us as ordinary maids. As a result, this dead old man actually said that this was a beauty rewarded by the emperor and should be treated specially. I didn't really care about it at the time, but it turned out that something went wrong recently. He even wanted to take one of them as a concubine. In a fit of rage, I wounded the slut. ”
"Have you taken a concubine now?"
"Not yet, I plan to ask him to send these four maids back to the emperor. He didn't agree to die, saying that he would return to his hometown. ”
Princess Jin comforted Mrs. Wang for a while, she was really a strong woman. Princess Jin deeply admired her.
Princess Jin returned to the palace and told King Jin the truth about the matter. Things finally came to light. Now all it takes is to think of a solution.
"I think that the bell must be tied to the bell, and this matter can only be solved by the father who caused the trouble."
"How?"
"Since it is a beautiful woman rewarded by his father, then he can only let the old man take it back."
"Will the emperor agree?"
"That's on me, Concubine Ai just needs to wait and see the results."
The king of Jin wrote to the queen. After they saw the twists and turns, they were very emotional.
"Wang Shao has been diligent for so many years, and he can't even have the beauties I rewarded him, it's really sad and lamentable!"
"I think Madame Wang is a very courageous person, and someone like her who insists on monogamy should be commended."
"This ...... That's just as well. The emperor suddenly found that he had almost forgotten that his queen advocated monogamy.
"Your Majesty, what did you say you should reward her?" The queen asked the emperor.
"I said, forget about the reward! Originally, if you hurt someone, you should be asked, but now forgiveness is the greatest reward! ”
"How can you say that, such a martyr should be rewarded, so that women in the world will rise up to defend their marriages, and men will not dare to take concubines without the consent of their wives."
"The queen thinks it is more appropriate to do this, so let's do it! However, it is better to be rewarded by the will of the queen. Otherwise, I won't have the face to face Wang Shao in the future. ”
"Well, let me reward Mrs. Wang according to my will. 500 brocades, 10 slaves. Take back the four handmaidens who were given at that time. ”
"Isn't this a little bit more rewarded? That's pretty much the way I rewarded military merit. ”
"Then 300 brocades and 10 slaves." The queen happily reduced the reward.
