Chapter 168: Miss Vicious
Seeing his melancholy appearance, Linglong felt pity and felt that he should comfort him a few words.
"Don't say that, the third prince, how can there be so many coincidental things in the world? Third prince, how are your royal concubines who have not passed through the door before marriage? β
"I don't know, it should be good, right? Why did Miss Su Er ask this? β
"I used to believe in the rumors about the Kevke wife, but now I don't believe it at all.
Not long ago, I met a friend in Jiangzhou, and I heard him say that the few fiancΓ©s I had engaged in Jiangzhou before did not have accidents for no reason, but someone deliberately did it, and the world did not know the reason, so they named me Kefu vicious.
There are not so many coincidences in the world, and there must be suspicions if they happen to coincide, the third prince, could your few imperial concubines who have not passed through the door also deliberately framed by someone in secret? β
The third prince was stunned: "How is it possible?" They are all famous ladies, and they live in the boudoir all the year round, so they shouldn't be ......"
The third prince's voice weakened, his eyebrows lowered and he fell into deep thought, maybe he thought of something suspicious?
"Second Young Grandma ......"
"Shh~~" Linglong made a silent gesture to her, pointed to the third prince who was in a daze beside him, and then walked out lightly, and asked after walking out of a distance with Cailan:
"Looking for a fight?"
"I found it, the Miao noble person that the second young grandmother said lives in the Miaoyin Pavilion."
"Miaogui?"
"Yes, this is the title of that nobleman, and having a title shows that the emperor looks at her differently, which is more noble than the status of a noble person without a title."
"Oh? And this kind of statement? There are so many doors in this palace, can these people handle it? β
"The second young grandmother is not in the palace, so I feel that I can't figure out the way, but as long as I live in the palace for ten days and half a month, I will naturally understand! Second young grandmother, you ...... Are you familiar with the Three Princes? β
"I don't know each other, I've only seen it a few times. What's wrong? β
"I didn't ...... It's nothing, the slave is too talkative. β
Linglong felt that she hadn't finished speaking, and she was about to ask again, when she saw a few beauties in front of her coming together.
Cailan hurriedly reminded: "Second young grandmother, it's Concubine De Niangniang and a few new little masters who are here, and they will retreat to the side to salute later." β
"Concubine De?"
"Yes."
Linglong raised her eyes and saw a graceful and luxurious, middle-aged woman in her thirties and forties, holding her grandmother's hand and shaking a handkerchief, slowly and elegantly walking over. Look at her talking to the two young beauties next to her from time to time. Like a walk?
When the two sides were only ten steps away, the other party also discovered them, and Linglong Fu saluted: "Concubine Liang Su's greetings to all the mothers." β
"Second sister!" The crisp familiar voice is not Lingman, who is it?
Linglong looked up. Sure enough, I saw a beautiful woman in an emerald blue dress walking out behind Concubine De.
Linglong looked at her from beginning to end in surprise: "Lingman? Is that you? β
"It's mine, second sister, don't you recognize me?"
"It's really you! The change is so big, I definitely won't recognize you if I call me! β
Lingman was visibly pleased. pulled Linglong and jumped and jumped, but ignored the few mothers behind him.
"Wonderful nobleman. This is the second sister you often mention? β
"Yes, Concubine De, my second sister's husband is the second son of the Liang State Mansion!"
"Hehe, got it. I've heard you mention it. Liang Sushi, your sister-in-law is my niece's sister-in-law, do you know? β
Linglong walked up to Concubine De and saluted: "The concubine asks Concubine De to say goodbye." The concubine saw Sister-in-law Shi a few days ago, and only after hearing Sister-in-law Shi mention it did she know that our Liang family still has this relationship. Thank you Concubine De for taking care of my cousin Lingman these days. She is young and ignorant, if there is anything inappropriate, please ask Concubine De to mention more. β
Concubine De nodded with a smile: "There are relatives on the left and right, and the palace that can mention it will naturally not hide its secrets!" That's it, it's rare for you sisters to see each other, Miao Guiren, why don't you take your second sister to your palace to sit down? β
"Yes, the concubine won't accompany the mother!"
"Go, go, you can't keep this palace!"
Linglong followed Lingman to say goodbye to the group, and after walking out for a while, Linglong glanced back and said in a low voice: "Lingman, it's a good mix!" Concubine Nade looks quite peaceful! β
"I'm also blessed by my sister!"
"Oh? Does it have anything to do with me? β
"Isn't it? Are they all relatives? Or they wouldn't look down on me! β
Lingman's words were whispered in Linglong's ear, and he was cautious, for fear of being heard.
The two returned to Lingman's residence, and let the palace maids and maids all stay outside the door, Lingman personally closed the door, and as soon as he turned around, he ran over and took Linglong's hand and jumped and jumped: "Second sister, great, I finally saw you, I'm afraid you won't come!" β
Linglong smiled: "I've never seen you so enthusiastic before." β
Lingman's face turned red: "I'...... I can't help it, I'm naturally happy to finally meet a relative who can talk, isn't the second sister happy? β
"I'm also happy, and I'm relieved to see that you're doing well in the palace."
"I'm fine, much better than expected, maybe it's because I have suffered too much before, God can't look past me and wants to compensate me, right?"
"Don't get too happy." Linglong glanced out, looked for her hand, asked her to come closer and asked in a low voice:
"Hey, I heard that the emperor is in his forties, you are together, can he do that?"
Ling Man was stunned for a moment, and then her face quickly turned red at a visible speed, and she said shyly: "Second sister, what did you say?" In broad daylight, shame on you! β
"What's there to be shy about? We're all married, don't you want to conceive a dragon or something? β
"This ...... How is that possible? β
"How could it not be? Don't all the women in the harem count on this? β
Linglong lowered his head and stirred his handkerchief: "How can this kind of thing be said to be there, just like you said, the emperor ...... after all." There are so many concubines in the harem, even if I am lucky, it may not fall on my head. β
Wanru thought for a while: "Whatever you want, but the princes and princesses in front of you are so old, if you really have a child, it's okay to be a princess, but it's troublesome to be a prince." β
Lingman's face changed, the two were silent for a moment, and Lingman poured tea for Linglong: "Second sister, let's not talk about this." You drink tea. β
"I'll just do it myself."
"It's okay, second sister, my aunt is ...... Are you okay? β
"This ...... You should know it in your heart, so why bother asking me? β
Ling Man's face changed: "Madam, did he torture my aunt again?" She...... What the hell does she want? Does the old lady, the old lady, and my father care? β
"The last time I received your letter, I asked my mother to go to the ancestral house to find out, you know my aunt's temper, and she will definitely not buy it if you talk to her well. A few days ago, I went for a trip and scolded her severely. She also wanted to do something to me. In the end, I was scared back by my husband! β
"This ...... I'm afraid that only the second sister dares to do this kind of thing, but I think in my heart, but I never dare. β
"You and I are in different situations. Naturally, the idea is different.
Lingman, I have left a conversation with my aunt, if she dares to torture your aunt again, I will go to the emperor to beg the emperor to send her daughter Lingxuan into the cold palace. She should be scared, and she won't do anything to your aunt for a while. β
"Really? That's good! Lingman sighed lightly. After thinking about it, he shook his head and said:
"Second sister's words are also a bluff, the relationship in this palace is complicated, it is still difficult for me to protect myself, how can I influence Lingxuan's whereabouts?"
"Really? I heard Sister-in-law Shi say that the emperor has a good impression of you! Said that you look very much like the emperor's favorite concubine before, right? β
Lingman's face was not very good-looking: "What's the use of looking like." Even if he is favored because of this, it is someone else's, but what he looks at me on the surface is someone else. Today I am like that man, and I can be favored for a while. If there are people like me tomorrow, the emperor will be able to leave me behind immediately. What's the point? β
Linglong smiled: "Fortunately, you are not confused, the taste of being a stand-in is really uncomfortable, but if you use it well, you can still get a lot of things, at least it is good to keep yourself for a while, just like Concubine De." β
"Concubine De? How could I hope to be like her? She has been in the palace for nearly 20 years, and has served by the emperor's side for 20 years. β
"Silly girl, since you have entered the palace, you should be a little ambitious, otherwise you will have nothing to go around, people will think that you have no use value, you will become an outcast, and you must have seen a lot of the fate of the concubines who fell out of favor in the palace."
Lingman shuddered: "Second sister, you ...... What do you mean ......? β
"I haven't been in the palace, so I can only say some hypothetical opinions, and you have to think about the specifics yourself."
Ling Man really lowered his head and lowered his eyes, looking serious and thoughtful.
"Okay, you have time to think about it in the future, but I don't have much time, I can't stay in the palace for a long time, I'll go back in a while, let's pick something important! Are you going to bring something or a message to your aunt? β
"Yes, yes! Second sister, wait a minute. β
Linglong took out a burden from inside: "These are the gold and silver I have accumulated after entering the palace, which can be used directly outside, and I bother the second sister to help me bring it to my aunt." β
Linglong carried it for a while, it was quite heavy, not to mention a hundred or ten taels of silver.
"You also need to take care of it in the palace, the Su family didn't prepare anything for you, you gave this to your aunt, what should you do?"
"I'm fine, first, I rely on Concubine De Niangniang, and I don't dare to be bullied, and secondly, the emperor will be rewarded once in a while, every time the emperor rewards me with something, I don't want it, I just need gold and silver to be soft, so that I can subsidize the family."
Reward? Linglong immediately fell into his heart: "Hey, Lingman, do you know how many night pearls there are in the palace?" β
"Pearl of the Night?"
"Yes, just like the one on the beam in the Queen Mother's palace, they are mostly used for lighting at night."
"This ...... I didn't pay much attention to it, but it was a precious thing that wasn't something that ordinary people could get. β
"You help me keep an eye on it, if the emperor gives you a reward next time, can you ask the emperor for a night pearl?"
"Huh? This ......"
"In this way, you can keep these gold and silver for yourself, and I will send two hundred taels of silver to your aunt when I go back, and you will be paid for helping me."
"No, no, no, second sister, I'll just ask for you, what kind of reward do you want? It's all raw! β
"It's okay, it's okay, I'm marrying the Liang family, nothing else, a lot of silver, not a few hundred taels, but I just want the night pearl, it must be difficult to find it outside, I heard that there are many rare treasures in the palace, maybe you can find a lot here."
Lingman thought for a while: "It's impossible to find a lot, I seem to have heard them mention it before, there is one in the emperor's imperial study, one on the beam of the queen mother's palace, there is also one in the queen's palace, there seems to be another one in the treasury, and I haven't heard of the others." β
"Four! That's great! β
"Second sister, these things are very precious to the emperor and the queen mother, and they can't usually get it, even if it's the one in the treasury, I heard that it has grown every year, and it was not too bright before it was sealed.
Ah, yes! And one more! β
"Shh~~ You be quiet!"
Lingman covered his mouth in horror and looked out, then lowered his voice and said: "Last time, I heard them say that the emperor's imperial mausoleum is about to be built, and two night pearls will be put in it, I don't know if it is taken from the palace, or is it another way to find it from the people?" β
Linglong was overjoyed, there were six of them at once! Add my two, and then you'll have eight, and you'll be eight. It's really hard to find nowhere to step on the iron shoes, and it takes no effort to get there!
"Second sister, what do you want the Night Pearl to do?"
"Huh? It's nothing, it's nothing, I just think that thing is full of aura, and I just like it! Lingman, if possible, you can help me ask for the one in the treasury, of course, if you can't ask for it, forget it, I'll find another one. β
Lingman was a little embarrassed but couldn't refuse: "I'...... I'll give it a try! Second sister, I'll leave my aunt's affairs to you! β
"Okay, I'll do my best. But...... Lingman, there are some things that don't sound good, and I think it's necessary to remind you. β
"What?"
"How is Su Lingxuan doing?"
"She's still locked up, but she hasn't been making much noise lately, I heard that she has a hoarse voice, and she has a cold, and she is sick in bed, so I found a lot of people to help her find some medicine to send in, but she didn't drink it, saying that I was going to harm her.
Alas, although I used to hate her to the bone, now that I see her like this, I feel that I don't hate her so much, the wicked have their own wicked grinding, and she will suffer the consequences of her own evil. β
Wanru remembered that Zhu asked Lingman to find a way to rescue Lingxuan and help her be favored, Zhu was really a fool's dream, Linglong didn't want to talk about this, but felt that Lingman was redundant to send medicine.
"Lingman, it's hard to say, you are a concubine, Lingxuan is a concubine, you both entered the palace at the same time, the Su family hopes to borrow your grace to get rid of it, but they want to be favored by the concubine rather than you, do you understand?"
Lingman paused: "I don't quite understand. β
"I said that as long as Lingxuan is still in one day, their hope will only be placed on Lingxuan, and you, they only want you to help Lingxuan, and they don't want you to be really favored, unless you have no choice!"
Lingman opened his mouth in surprise and looked at Linglong: "Second sister, do you want me to ...... No, no, I ...... I can't do it! β
"Silly girl, I don't want you to do it yourself, you're right, wicked people have their own wicked people, no matter whether Su Lingxuan can be favored or not, sooner or later it will be a disaster, she has offended so many people, there will always be someone who will attack her.
I want you to leave everything alone, and keep her clean, as for sending medicine to visit, don't do this kind of thing, and when she eats the consequences, you will become the only hope of the Su family, and your aunt's life will naturally be better! β
"Second sister, this ......"
Linglong stood up with a smile: "Do you think I'm ruthless?" It's okay, the people in Jiangzhou call me the vicious second miss, okay, Lingman, it's time for me to go! (To be continued.) )
