Chapter 436, the side concubine
Early the next morning, the full sleep of Changsheng was noisy by the sound of birdsong, Mingjing was still asleep, she got out of bed and pushed open the window, under the morning glow is a large garden, rockery flowing water, flowers and trees are sparse, winding paths are secluded, although there are only some evergreen trees in early winter, but because of the ingenuity everywhere and beautiful, only a few sprinkle sweeping women are gently sweeping the floor, occasionally there are brightly dressed girls sleepy-eyed walking, the Huai'an palace in the early morning is rich and serene.
The house she lived in was very magnificent, comfortable and spacious, the furniture curtains were extremely luxurious and exquisite, the floor was covered with gorgeous carpets from the Western Regions, and the porcelain, jade carvings, antiques, calligraphy and paintings were all priceless.
They live in the most exquisite guest house in Huai'an Palace, which was carefully selected by Princess Ji, both secluded and very close to her residence, and now it has changed the door plaque and no longer serves as a guest house, and the door plaque is the three big characters of "Baozhu Courtyard" handwritten by King Huai'an himself, which is vulgar, but it really reflects the cherishment of her daughter.
Soon Mingjing woke up, Changsheng pushed him, and said with bright eyes: "Look at that jade carved peony, how beautiful the color is, how good the jade quality is, it must be very valuable, right?" There is also that calligraphy and painting is the real work of the previous dynasty, and it can't be bought with silver, and the little golden Buddha, but it is a real gold sculpture, what a pity to put it here, although we can live it, but we can't take it away, I feel sorry for me, it is better to wait for the opening of the house and ask the mother to ask the concubine to come? Forget it, if I really have to leave, I don't know how those people laugh at me behind my back, I can't afford to lose this person."
Mingjing nodded thoughtfully, and said regretfully: "Then the lady said how to do it?" ”
Changsheng saw that Mingjing didn't mean to laugh at her, and said reassuringly: "Otherwise, I heard that some children of rich and noble families, their families are tight, and when they don't have silver to spend, they make some fakes in the house and sell the real ones, this jade carving can't be faked, but this porcelain vase and this calligraphy and painting from the previous dynasty can be faked, why don't you think of a way, let's get some fakes on the table, and get the real ones to our house?" ”
Mingjing glanced at her in surprise, and suddenly laughed heartily, laughing so much that tears came out, Changsheng realized that he had been deceived, and he was deceived into telling the truth, and angrily smashed him with a pillow and scolded the liar. Mingjing laughed so much that he almost broke his breath, rubbed his stomach and said: "I really didn't expect that my lady not only loves money, but also takes it in a good way, it is completely feasible to be a husband, and she will do it when she is free."
Changsheng turned his head and ignored him angrily, and Mingjing hurriedly apologized: "Okay, okay, lady, don't be angry, can't you apologize to your husband?" In fact, the husband does not mean to laugh at you, I just think that everyone in the world loves money, and they are all hypocritical and righteous, but the lady is really lovely, and the real one makes the husband convinced. In fact, my husband has been thinking about how to get rid of these good things since he saw them last night, but he has never been able to think of a good way, so I didn't fall asleep until midnight, otherwise why would I wake up so late? Fortunately, the lady has come up with a good solution, otherwise she won't be able to sleep tonight for her husband."
Changsheng couldn't help laughing, Fang felt that he was really greedy for money, Princess Ji could clean up the house where she occasionally lived temporarily, and when she really opened the mansion, could she give her less good things?
The two chattered for a while, and Xiao Wei shouted softly outside: "Third master, third lady, it's time to get up, the princess came over and sent someone to urge"
Mingjing jumped up from the bed, and shouted straight in his mouth: "Get up and go, go to see the emperor, and wait to be a county horse" Changsheng smiled and slapped him, before getting up and opening the door.
After breakfast, a cronie sent by Princess Ji to serve stepped forward and whispered: "Concubine Lu and the county lord Anyu came early in the morning, saying don't disturb you, she will come in again after you finish breakfast, the slave is afraid of being rude, please let her sit in the Ming Hall and drink tea, can you invite her to come in now?" ”
Concubine Lu? Changsheng vaguely remembered the first time he came to the palace to see such a person, quite beautiful and moving, a small family jasper, younger than the golden side concubine, but not very favored, only gave birth to An Yu one daughter, An Yu is the ** of Huai'an Palace, when it was the cardamom years, it looks quite like a mother, although it looks very quiet, but there are many unwillingness in their eyes, what are they doing here?
Seeing her pondering, Mingjing reminded: "We just entered the palace, and everything is alive, what is she doing here?" But what's the purpose? Or do we say that we have to hurry into the palace and send her away? ”
Changsheng shook his head: "It's still early, it doesn't hurt to listen to them say a few words, just enough to inquire about some situations, we have just entered the mansion now, and we need to be close to people, this Concubine Lu is not favored, and she has no son, so it is not a problem at all, I am afraid that she is often oppressed by Concubine Jin in the mansion, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, I think she is worth our wooing." ”
Mingjing nodded in admiration: "What you said is so good, the enemy of the enemy is a friend, think about it carefully, let's go, let's go meet her, just listen more and talk less." ”
When I came to the Ming Hall, it was really a familiar woman, dressed luxuriously and beautifully, it was the last time I saw Concubine Lu, and the aristocratic girl An Yu who was in her prime, seeing Changsheng and Mingjing standing up together, Changsheng didn't want to tell the truth, so he pulled Mingjing to take the first step forward and salute: "Changsheng saw Concubine Lu and was supposed to go to see Concubine Lu first, but Concubine Lu came first, which is really rude."
Then he straightened up and said sincerely: "I was supposed to give a big gift to my mother, but when I saw Concubine Jin yesterday, my father ordered me to only do a flat salute, so Changsheng didn't dare to favor one over the other, and I hope that Concubine Lu will forgive me."
Originally, Concubine Lu, who was going to receive the half-rite of Changsheng, was still a little unhappy when she saw that Changsheng was doing a flat ceremony, and when she heard that it was also a flat ceremony for Concubine Jin, her eyes flashed and she didn't speak, but her heart was extremely comfortable, and she thought that the prince could spoil the Jin family to heaven, but in fact, she didn't even deserve a half-salute in front of her daughter-in-law, and no matter how favored she was, she was just a concubine like herself.
The concubine An Yu respectfully stepped forward to salute Changsheng, Changsheng glanced at Xiao Ni, and took her hand affectionately: "This is Sister An Yu, right?" The last time we met, my sister got up early and worked hard, I'll visit her again when I have time."
An Yu didn't even dare to take it, just as she was saying that Xiao Ni took Princess Ji to prepare a meeting gift for Changsheng, and gave An Yu a pair of lilac jade bracelets, plus a pair of gold-inlaid earrings of the same style, which matched her age and appearance very well, and was also very expensive and rare, although An Yu also had a lot of jewelry, it was not as good as this.
Not only An Yu was very happy, but Concubine Lu was also full of surprise, and after saying a few words of gratitude, she didn't bother to ask Changsheng about how well she slept last night, whether she was used to living, whether the servants were still dedicated, whether the breakfast was delicious, etc., after a conversation, the hour was almost up, Princess Ji also sent someone to urge, and the mother and daughter just said goodbye and left, so that Changsheng couldn't figure out what their purpose was, maybe it was purely to get close.
