Chapter Seventy-Two: Broad-mindedness
Early the next morning, the Prince's Mansion gradually became noisy from deserted to noisy.
The prince entered the palace to engage in government affairs, and the women of the prince's mansion gathered together for breakfast.
"I heard that yesterday the prince stayed at Concubine Chu yesterday, congratulations to Concubine Chu." Yan Le said to Chu Jiaorou with a smile.
Chu Jiaorou's face was full of shyness: "Thank you Yan Cairen, my sister can only be favored by the prince with the blessings that she has cultivated in several lifetimes." ”
Qi Hongshan was already dizzy on the side, they also guessed yesterday that the prince would go to Gu Tianyan's Yalan House at night, or go to her residence, but the prince actually went to find Chu Jiaorou. Chu Jiaorou, a foxy son, where did she win the prince's favor.
Seeing that Qi Hongshan's face was wrong, Xue Miaomiao immediately said to Gu Qianyan: "We also guessed yesterday whether the prince would go to Gu Liangdi's Yalan Residence, but we didn't expect the prince to find Concubine Chu. It seems that compared to Gu Liangdi, the prince still prefers Concubine Chu. ”
"Yes, maybe the prince appointed Gu Liangdi, I'm afraid that he just likes Gu Liangdi's medicinal food, Gu Liangdi is really pitiful." Qin Zinuo said softly.
"Don't talk nonsense, Gu Liangdi is gentle and generous, the prince will definitely like it. It's just, it's just ......" Chu Jiaorou was anxious, afraid that Gu Qianyan would misunderstand, and felt uncomfortable.
"Concubine Chu doesn't have to explain, I am like sisters with you, so naturally I won't fall in love with you because of some gossip. Concubine Chu doesn't have to worry. Gu Tianyan smiled softly, and didn't pay attention to what those people said.
In her heart, the unlikable prince is naturally inferior to her sister at this time.
He said disapprovingly: "As for why the rumor that the prince will hand-pick me, there are many people who chew the root of the tongue, so don't take it to heart Concubine Chu." They are noisy, can we still gag them? ”
Hearing this, several people felt uncomfortable, too hindered by their position being lower than Gu Tianyan, and they didn't dare to argue nonsense.
Only Yang Pinglan saw everything in her eyes, planned in her heart, and did not speak.
"Gu Liangdi is broad-minded." Qi Hongshan pinched the yin and yang weird tone, accentuated the words 'broad-minded', and sneered: "The best, the prince favors Concubine Chu alone, and never enters your Yalan Pavilion, which is the most worthy of your heart." ”
Qi Hongshan glanced at Gu Qianyan, and only felt that what Gu Qianyan said was in response.
The woman of the prince's mansion, which is not to win the favor of the prince, makes her head bleed.
In her heart, she just thought that Gu Tianyan was so close to Chu Jiaorou that she just wanted to take the opportunity to cling to Chu Jiaorou and help her say some good things, so that the prince would notice her.
Gu Tianyan frowned, and he didn't like this Qi Hongshan more and more in his heart.
She never seemed to have offended Qi Hongshan, but she didn't want Qi Hongshan to target her so much. Could it be because they are both in the prince's backyard, they have to intrigue with each other and fall into each other's favor.
But thinking of this, what she complained about the most was the prince who inexplicably elected her into the palace.
The prince obviously didn't have that kind of mind for her, but somehow, he let her enter the prince's mansion for nothing. Watching these women quarrel and quarrel every day, jealousy and jealousy, I can't live a little leisure.
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince favors Concubine Chu, which is naturally a blessing from Concubine Chu's cultivation. As for how His Royal Highness the Crown Prince treats me in the future, I only need to resign myself to fate, and sometimes I have to have it in my life, and I don't want to force it in my life. It's Qi Chenghui, you don't have to talk to sour me, Concubine Chu is favored, presumably you are the most intolerable. ”
Gu Tianyan took a sip of tea, stroked the teacup, his tone was indifferent, and his eyes were not on Qi Hongshan at all when he spoke, ignoring her at all.
"Hmph, I really can't tolerate it, besides, among the sisters here, who can tolerate it!" When Qi Hongshan heard Gu Tianyan's words, she was instantly annoyed, she slapped the table with her hand and shouted.
Gu Tianyan dared to accuse her by name, it's really damned!
"Okay, okay, sisters, don't be angry, don't be angry." Looking at the scene a little embarrassing, Yang Pinglan hurriedly played a round.
"Let's enter the prince's mansion together, and we will get along for a long time in the future. Fighting on weekdays can be regarded as pleasant, but the sisters don't want to hurt the harmony. Our hope is not to serve His Royal Highness the Crown Prince well, to spread the branches and leaves for the Prince, if you are not harmonious, the Crown Prince is afraid that he will also have a headache. ”
"His Royal Highness the Crown Prince pampered Sister Chu, I can't say that Sister Chu will be able to open branches and leaves for my Prince's East Palace in the near future, and it will be our Prince's East Palace that will be blessed at that time. As for Sister Qi, it was also because she hadn't seen His Royal Highness the Crown Prince for the past two days, she was a little upset, and she was happy to say what she was holding in her heart, Sister Gu and Sister Chu should not be angry. ”
The prince favors Chu Jiaorou alone, and Yang Pinglan is also angry! was so angry that he wanted to kill Chu Jiaorou directly. But as the woman who has been in the prince's backyard for the longest time, she naturally knows that the prince's favor for Chu Jiaorou is only temporary, and it will not last for a few days.
And, excluding the interference of the concubine, she is the last person who may become the crown princess. If they are allowed to quarrel, when the news reaches the ears of the prince, the prince will have a lot of complaints, which will have an impact on her.
"It's because we don't know the general idea." After listening to Yang Pinglan's words, Gu Tianyan and Chu Jiaorou hurriedly apologized.
However, Qi Hongshan snorted coldly disdainfully, as if she didn't take Yang Pinglan in her eyes at all. Fortunately, she still remembered that she had only won over Yang Pinglan yesterday, and she didn't talk back at this time.
After the meal, Qi Hongshan took the maidservant girl to wander around the garden to eat. From time to time, she kicked the pebbles under her feet, and her face was not very happy.
"Master, do you say that Concubine Yang is facing us, or is it Concubine Chu?" The maid saw that Qi Hongshan was distressed, and tried to talk to him.
"Who knows!"
Thinking of what Yang Pinglan said in the morning, she was also a little confused. It is said that Yang Pinglan believed her words yesterday, thinking that Gu Tianyan and Chu Jiaorou were chewing the root of her tongue behind her back. Looking at what she meant today, it seems that I didn't listen to her words yesterday. Yang Pinglan's angry appearance yesterday was she pretending?
"Since Yang Pinglan's attitude is not clear, we can't sit still. Although Gu Tianyan was a little hateful, she was not happy with the prince, which was not enough evidence. But Chu Jiaorou, we have to think of a way to make the prince hate her! Qi Hongshan's beautiful face was full of resentment.
"What's the solution, master, have you thought of it?" The maid asked cautiously.
Qi Hongshan frowned, slowly walked and kept thinking, until she thought of something, and her eyes lit up.
"There it is! Do you know what can make people sleepy, or fall asleep? Qi Hongshan asked.
The maid thought for a moment and said, "The slave maid used to hear from the old man in the family that there was a taste of medicine - mountain eggplant flower. The flower of the mountain eggplant is slightly toxic, and the general dose can make people tired, enter dreamless sleep, and make people forgetful. If the dose is large, it will directly affect the human brain. ”
"Oh? It turns out that there is such a good thing. Qi Hongshan was very surprised, the unwillingness and resentment on her face also stretched a lot, and she gestured: "Go and get some back in Chu Jiaorou tea, after the matter is completed, you will be indispensable." ”
"The master has thought of a trick to deal with Concubine Chu?" The maid asked curiously.
Qi Hongshan said dissatisfiedly: "If you are told to go, you will go, what do you ask." If you can't do it, I won't spare you! ”
Looking at the departing figure of the maid, a sneer hung on the corner of Qi Hongshan's mouth, Qi Hongshan, if you are disrespectful to the prince, see how long the prince can spoil you!
In the evening, the prince also stayed at Yingjiao Pavilion.
Chu Jiaorou, who was sleeping, was pulled up from the bed by the maid and came to greet Feng Jinglan again and again.
Feng Jinglan saw that Chu Jiaorou looked like she hadn't woken up at this time, frowned, and was a little puzzled: "What's wrong with you?" ”
Chu Jiaorou heard the prince talking to herself, and hurriedly raised her spirits, but her expression was still not good: "The concubine feels that her body is tired today, maybe the weather has changed recently, and the concubine is a little uncomfortable, so the prince doesn't have to worry." ”
"Hmm." Feng Jinglan nodded: "Then pay attention to rest, if you need anything, let the maid go to the housekeeper to ask for it." If you don't feel well, it's okay to call a doctor to take a look, be careful, don't fall ill. ”
"Thank you, Your Highness, for your concern."
After a night of silence, Feng Jinglan saw that Chu Jiaorou was unwell, and did not let her sleep.
