Chapter 67: Concubine Cuiping
But it was said that King Rui was not now, and it was King Chen, Xia Ci finally broke away from the palace and went home happily. But I saw that my home was full of gloom and misery. I met my father with a serious face, and then I went to see the bitter and hateful mother. I just wanted to visit the person I was thinking about, but I was stopped by my mother. "God, you're going to the northwest soon. The mother concubine is worried that there is no one in your room who can stand, so she has already made the decision to accept a side concubine for you. Now that the matter is urgent, I have already sent it to Yicui Pavilion. Tonight you will have a round house. Xia Ci was confused, and suddenly became anxious: "Mother, isn't Rong'er very good?" The son doesn't want any side concubines. Why didn't you inform your son beforehand? Prince Gong looked angry: "What is she doing?" It's been more than half a year since I entered the door, and my stomach hasn't moved at all. We are kings, and we want to have children. Xia Ci was speechless: "Mother, it's right that Rong'er has been in the door for half a year, but we have only been together for seven or eight days." Princess Gong said, "Oh? And such a thing? Then she is even worse. As a wife but not serving her husband, this is going to be seven! Xia Ci was forced to say a word. I know that my mother will not let herself pass the test no matter what. waved his hand at the moment, didn't say anything, and went straight to Yicui Pavilion.
A pair of red wedding candles were burning lively, and Cui Ping was sitting on the wedding bed, her hands twisting the corners of her clothes from time to time. She never imagined that such a good thing would happen to her. She has always admired King Rui, but her biggest fantasy is that she hopes to become his concubine. But he never thought that the princess personally named her and raised her to the side concubine. "A concubine can become a princess, you are a good family, why can't you be a side concubine? This time, you have done a good job of helping the little prince take care of the inner courtyard, so today I will take you for the little prince! The princess's words were still ringing in her ears. Of course, it is a good thing to be recognized by the princess, but I don't know what the little prince will do to himself? Thinking of the little prince, Cuiping felt a little heartache. treats Princess Rui really well, the little prince is really good. Others don't know, but she sees it all. She didn't know when the little prince was out of the name before. However, after marrying the princess, the little prince really didn't go out to mess around. I don't know, in the heart of the little prince, can there be a small corner where he can accommodate himself? No matter how much it is, just take a risk for yourself! Regardless of whether you will regret it in the future, at least you don't regret it now! Cui Ping pinched the small paper bag in his sleeve and said to himself resolutely.
Xia Ci looked at the person in front of him and was stunned, it was Cui Ping. Cuiping has always been very loyal to herself, and she has followed her since she was a child. However, all the while, he was used to treating her as a relative, or rather a sister. The mother concubine is really very embarrassed. However, Cui Ping should know his mind, so he was stunned for a moment and turned around to leave. But I heard the person behind me whisper: "After so many days, the master should be tired and ruthless, so let the slave serve you and drink a cup of tea before leaving, how about it?" "In the end, it is Cuiping, and it is worthy of Cuiping. Xia Ci secretly accepted his guilt for Cuiping, took the teacup in Cuiping's hand, and drank the tea in the cup in one go.
Shen Rong cleaned up in the room for a long time, and finally put all the things that were going to the northwest away. I just wanted to ask about the whereabouts of King Rui, but I saw Greene standing aside with an annoyed face. I couldn't help but smile and asked, "What's wrong with you?" Don't you want to come with me? It's okay, I'll tell Mama Zhou to take care of you and help you find a good in-law here. Greenvein stomped his feet and said, "Miss, when is this, you still have the heart to joke!" The princess treats you well on weekdays, why is she blocking you now! Shen Rong was stunned for a moment and said, "What's wrong?" What's wrong? Green tears came down: "You don't know." The princess has already married a side concubine for the little prince, which is that Cuiping. Now the little prince is leaning on the Cui Pavilion and the newcomer's cave room to spend candles! Shen Rong's face stiffened, and then said, "Oh, I was so busy that I forgot." What's so sad about this? Silly girl, this one is worth your tears. The little prince's personality, you didn't know it for the first time. Miss Cuiping has always been valued by him, and this is also a normal thing! Green Streak looked at Shen Rong in surprise, feeling as if her young lady had changed someone. Shen Rong looked at her with a slight smile and said, "Why are you looking at me like this?" Don't you know? After staying in this house for so long, don't tell me you haven't adapted yet. Nothing is up to me. Since there is no way to change it, I can only try to accept it. The little prince will accept newcomers tonight, and I will wait for tomorrow to drink the tea of the newcomers. The green nose was sour, and he said, "But, Miss, you were personally married by the emperor." Shen Rong's face was grim and said, "It's nothing good." Remember, in this mansion, everything is still in charge of the old prince and princess. You don't have to be upset about me. I don't have any grievances! After finishing speaking, he called a few other big girls around him and told them to treat the newly sealed side concubine well tomorrow without any rudeness. The crowd answered. In the dead of night, Shen Rong was holding a brocade quilt alone and quietly burst into tears. It's time to come, it's still coming.
In the summer, I will sleep until the third pole of the sun before waking up. Cui Ping's pretty face was slightly red when she stepped forward to serve, with the shyness of a new wife. Looking at her coquettishness that is better than before, Summer gives a long sigh in her heart. This girl actually calculated herself. Looking at the feelings of the past, I wouldn't punish her much. It's just that, in the future, let her stay with her mother. What she wants, status, and a lot, she gave it to her, and it can also be said that she is benevolent and righteous. Shen Rong went to greet her mother-in-law early in the morning. Looking at her indifference, Princess Gong felt a little respectful in her heart. This daughter-in-law has a bit of a general's style. It's just that the little prince and the side concubine have not arrived for a long time, and Princess Gong has waited for a long time, and finally she is a little impatient, and she can't see the sadness on Shen Rong's face, and she doesn't feel any fun. said to Shen Rong: "They are newly married Yan'er, and it is inevitable that they will be late." You go back first, and I'll ask Cuiping to come over and give you tea later." Shen Rong nodded, bowed respectfully and went back. Looking at her lonely back, Lord Mingyu couldn't help but say to her mother: "The mother concubine is really, I have to marry my brother to a side concubine." makes my sister-in-law alone now, so it's pitiful. Princess Gong nodded the corner of her forehead and said, "What do children know?" Don't talk nonsense! Mother is not for your brother! Lord Mingyu said: "If the mother concubine is really for her brother, she should let her brother and sister-in-law love her." Wouldn't it be more accidents to insert a person into it plainly? Prince Gong said, "What do you know?" It is normal for men and children to have three wives and four concubines. Your brother has a heavy burden on him, how can he be made with only one princess? That green screen is what I have been looking at coldly for many years. In the future, neither of them nor their husband and wife will be there, and she really wants to take over the affairs of this house! Lord Mingyu said: "What did the concubine say?" My brother and sister-in-law will not be in this mansion in the future, where will they go? Prince Gong sighed and said, "Your brother's temper, others don't know, I am his mother, don't you know?" This has always been the case that he has identified what he wants to do, and what one of them will not be done? He's always had an idea. When I married your sister-in-law, I was like this, and others thought he was willful and arrogant and spoiled by the emperor. In fact, I don't know how to do it, if it's not his own picture, no matter how good it is, he won't marry it back. This time, he was forced by me to accept Cuiping, and I'm afraid he will make up his mind to live outside in the future. Lord Mingyu said: "Mother, my brother won't be so ruthless." He probably wouldn't have done that. Prince Gong said: "Even if your brother is not so ruthless, what he does can't let him stay in the capital for a long time." Pacifying the northwest and containing the post-party, which one is not the credit of pouring the sky? With such a credit, staying in the capital any longer will cause people to criticize. It is a matter of time before it is degraded and abolished. If you want me to say, it's better to be like now, the emperor is looking for a small mistake, deposing him far away, opening a house outside, and keeping a peace. "It's best if you think like that. That's exactly what I mean. "But it was Prince Gong who came in from outside. Seeing Prince Gong, the women in the house stepped forward to say goodbye. Prince Gong waved his hand and motioned for them all to stand down. Soon only the couple were left in the house.
"Why did the prince think of coming to me today?" There are no outsiders, and Princess Gong no longer hides her anger on her face. This time, Prince Gong has always lived with Xie Qinshu. Although Xie Qinshu has become the exclusive favorite of the prince she wants her to be, but because of this exclusive favor, the princess has a little taste. "Didn't you ask someone to do that? I'm just following your wishes. Prince Gong looked at the princess with a bit of scrutiny. Prince Gong was a little weak-hearted, lowered her head slightly, and said in a low voice: "No matter how much you spoil them, don't leave me behind!" Prince Gong laughed and said, "The old husband and wife." You're still in this temper. One moment pushes people far away, and the next moment is stingy and jealous. I know you're blaming me for the godsend, but don't you know it yourself? The eldest brother's temper has always been suspicious, although we are brothers, we are still affectionate, that is because the Queen Mother is still there. If one day my mother is old, I am afraid that these God-given merits will only cause people to criticize. Rather than this, it is better to take advantage of the fact that we still have brotherhood and make plans early. Princess Gong sighed, it seems that her husband still understands her, and she and her husband still have the same thoughts. It's just that I think that my son will be separated from me in the future, and I am really reluctant. For his son Na Cuiping, it is really helpless. I hope there is an excuse to see my son a few more times.
"The child meets his father, the queen and the princess!" Xia Ci's deliberately high-pitched voice made Prince Gong and Princess Gong wake up from their panic. But I saw Xia Ci wearing a bright red robe, with heroic eyebrows, standing in front of him, followed by Cuiping in a rose-red outfit. Prince Gong's brows furrowed, he glanced at the princess, and finally didn't say a word. He sat down and bowed, and then got up and left. Princess Gong handed Cui Ping a makeup box that had been prepared a long time ago. Cui Ping took it with a smile on her face. Xia Ci looked at this situation, and suddenly felt a little uncomfortable in his heart, so he turned his face and glanced at his henchman. The little guy was very clever, and soon slipped away.
When Cuiping went to Liuxiang Pavilion, he had a feeling of raising his eyebrows. Not long ago, I came in as a slave. Now he has come as a master. I thought I would be ridiculed and cold-eyed, but I didn't want the girls at the door to be very respectful to her. One by one, the "side concubine" shouted. I couldn't help but feel proud in my eyes. In the final analysis, I'm afraid they can all see that they are the people that the little prince values, right? Although the little princess has always been good to the little princess before. But the truth is known to you. And now although he has calculated the little prince, he has not and has not punished himself. Instead, he personally accompanied himself to greet the prince and princess and recognized his status. It shows that the little prince actually likes himself. When he thought about it like this, Cuiping's back became straighter and straighter. When I entered Shen Rong's main house, I saw Shen Rong dressed in a bright red suit, sitting on the main seat dignified and looking at her with a smile. Seeing Shen Rong's smiling face, she was a little stunned, but then reacted, and hurriedly stepped forward with a smile to salute Shen Rong. Seeing that she was just leaning down to worship, Green Wen stopped her and said with a smile: "Don't do this ceremony." Let's change another cup of hot tea for the master. Cui Ping's face suddenly became hot. It's not that she doesn't understand the formal rules, as usual, she has to kneel down to greet Shen Rong. However, she thought from the beginning that Shen Rong was just a concubine in the family, and she might not know the rules in the palace. Whoever admits to it will be picked on as soon as he comes up. She stood there, kneeling and not kneeling, not kneeling. was embarrassed, but he heard the green stripe continue: "I think I forgot that the concubine of the side has forgotten, but our county lord once followed the princess into the palace to face the saint." These rules in the palace are very proficient. Or the side concubine has just been promoted to the seal and doesn't understand the rules of the house. It's better to ask the side concubine to go back, and let Mama Han here teach her etiquette rules well. How about the concubine come to tea after she has learned? Cui Ping was embarrassed when she heard this, and secretly hated Shen Rong for indulging her subordinates to ridicule her like this, and forgetting all about her own rudeness. Shen Rong didn't speak, just looked at her with a smile. This woman has always been in charge of the Yicui Pavilion, and she rarely asks. Although she knows that she may be Xia Ci's confidant, she has always paid attention to proportion, so the two have little intersection. Looking at her actions now, it seems that she is a little too impatient. In normal times, this woman would definitely not make such a low-level mistake. But the sudden surprise still made her reveal her true nature.
"Greenvein, don't be so rude to the side concubine! Sister Cuiping, don't be surprised, my girl is a mouthless person, she speaks a lot, and please ask my sister to be a lot, don't worry about her in general! Shen Rong's voice was still soft and gentle, and she didn't hear much reproach, nor did she have a mournful tone. However, Cui Ping's heart shook quickly. I seem to be too anxious to get on top and ignore something. I don't know if it's too late to remedy. When she thought about it like this, she knelt down respectfully and saluted Shen Rong in a dignified manner: "The slave and maid have overpassed, please don't blame the county lord!" Shen Rong took the teacup in her hand, took a sip lightly, and said, "Okay, sister, please hurry up!" Cui Ping dared to get up. There is no need to say too much, Hongju has already moved a chair: "Concubine Fang, please sit!" Cui Ping wanted to refuse, but saw Shen Rong's smiling face. He sat down leaning over. saw Shen Rong take a jade bracelet from her wrist and hand it to her: "This pair of bracelets was given to me by my mother on the day I got married." Now I'll borrow flowers to offer Buddha, this one for my sister, and you and my sister will keep one each, how about it? Cui Ping couldn't say a word. She wanted to refuse, but there was no excuse. Such a valuable thing, Shen Rong actually gave it to her without blinking an eye. And one with her. What does this mean exactly? What exactly is Shen Rong doing? Cui Ping's heart has no bottom. Carefully taking the jade bracelet, her gaze when she looked at Shen Rong had completely changed. There are many things that not all people can take for granted, and even if they do, they may not necessarily understand, understand, and be happy.
Returning to his own Yicui Pavilion from Shen Rong, Cui Ping did not have a little happiness as he originally imagined. The things she had been wanting to get were in her hands, but they didn't give her the pleasure she wanted. What's wrong with you? Isn't it just to get ahead after so many years of suffering? Why did you get it, but you didn't feel like you were raising your eyebrows? In Shen Rong, she was courteous and preferential, but, it seems, she didn't feel respected. Isn't the respect she thought she had always thought was the feeling of stepping on someone else's head and bullying her? But today's Shen Rong's approach seems to be very strange. It seems to be showing weakness, but it doesn't give people the feeling that she is weak. In turn, she didn't have that feeling that she was stronger than her. What's going on?
