189. House arrest in disguise
Lin Wanqing's heart has never been so chaotic, even if she is a concubine and was given a childless medicine by Mrs. Lin, she endured it silently, thinking about revenge, thinking about making them miserable, and there was never a trace of despair in her heart.
But at this moment, seeing the dowry that Tang Jinxuan gave her, her mother gave it to Wang Yuefen, and the despair in her heart didn't know where the Dao came from, making her about to collapse.
"Aunt Lin, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell? The person next to her saw that she was Lin Ruoyan's aunt and someone from the Prime Minister's Mansion, so he gave some face and asked with concern.
"No, it's okay," Lin Wanqing maintained her calmest calm, raised a sweet smile, and shook her head with a smile. "It's just that after standing for a long time, I feel a little sore," she said, hammering her arm to show that she was telling the truth.
"Then go sit down," the man kindly suggested.
Lin Wanqing knew that she didn't have the courage to stay here anymore, she was afraid that if she stayed any longer, she would impulsively go up and question Wang Yuefen, when the time came, the happy event of the prince's mansion would be ruined, not to mention the queen's mother, even the people of the Wang family would not let her go.
"She, she must have seen that Concubine Wang married so well, but she became an aunt, and her heart was uneven, so her face would be so ugly," Before Lin Wanqing walked away, someone was talking behind her back.
"Concubine Wang is the maiden family of Aunt Lin's mother, speaking of which, she is still a cousin, how can this be?" Some people expressed surprise and found it difficult to accept such a thing.
"An aunt, a prince's concubine, such a world difference, if it were me, I can't accept it," one in the sky and one underground, they all feel unlucky when compared to each other, and it's strange that they can be accepted.
Lin Wanqing closed her eyes, isolated all these mockery and sarcasm, and left with a cold face following the maid who led the way, but her heart was dripping blood-Wang Yuefen, you invited me here today just to embarrass me, didn't you? If not, how could I, an aunt, enter the Prince's Mansion?
According to what Lin Wanqing saw, this is the case, but in fact, this is just a beautiful misunderstanding.
As early as when the Wang family left the Chen family's dowry to Jinxuan, it was equivalent to pulling the relationship between their mother and daughter down the abyss, because what Jinxuan told Lin Wanqing, she had always remembered tightly. And when Lin Wanqing asked Wang for a dowry, Wang deliberately fooled the past because those things had already been given to the Wang family, and it was difficult to explain them because they couldn't take them out, but they didn't expect to leave a trace in Lin Wanqing's heart.
And that double-sided screen is extremely rare, after the Wang family's housewife took it, she did not give it away, but left it to Wang Yuefen, and when Lin Wanqing saw it, she naturally felt that it was given to Wang Yuefen by Wang, so there was such a misunderstanding.
As for Wang Yuefen's post to invite Lin Wanqing to the prince's mansion, it was nothing more than that the Wang family felt that the Wang family still had some status in the Tang family, and it was at least beneficial for the two families to join forces, so they thought about promoting Lin Wanqing and giving her some status in the Lin family, but unexpectedly deepened Lin Wanqing's misunderstanding. If they knew what Lin Wanqing was thinking at the moment, they would definitely not be so arranged.
Some things are just a little misunderstanding, as long as they are said, there will be no traces. However, Lin Wanqing is the kind of person who buries her hatred in her heart and feels sorry for her all the time, how could she ask these things, so she is destined to be in chaos between the Lin family and the prince's mansion.
Compared with the liveliness of the Prince's Mansion, there is no difference at all in the Yunwang Mansion.
Li Yanran, who was wearing a wedding dress, was surrounded by the bride and entered the so-called wedding room, which was deserted, and even the maids around her were wronged for her.
"The prince is unwell, Concubine Li will rest by herself, Ming'er doesn't need to say hello to the princess, the princess is heavy, and she usually can't get up in the morning," it was Yi Bo who specially found the grandmother who spoke, and she was wholeheartedly for King Yun and Princess Yun, so when she saw the woman who entered the door when her princess was pregnant, her face was even less joyful. "Oh, by the way, also, this palace is not the maiden family of the side concubine, where you go depends on your temperament, don't mess around if you don't have anything to do, just stay in this courtyard, so as not to make any mistakes, don't blame the old slave for not reminding," After speaking, without waiting for Li Yanran to answer, he turned around and left directly.
"Miss......," Li Yanran's slave maid immediately choked up when she saw it, because her own young lady was not worth it.
Li Yanran is the daughter of Li Shangshu's family, and she is loved by her parents at home, so she didn't give her a marriage because she was reluctant, but she didn't expect the queen's words to change her life.
Li Yanran, who clenched her fists, slowly raised her hand and lifted the red hijab on it, the red hijab seemed to be laughing at her, and she waved her hand and threw it away.
The red hijab that should have been provoked by the groom is now asking her to lift it herself, how can she accept such humiliation.
"Tang Jinxuan, you are ruthless enough!" She has been wondering in her heart, when the queen mother went to the Yunwang Mansion to stuff people, why did she accept it lightly, and also helped herself in front of the queen mother, it turned out that there was a reason for this. From the very beginning, she thought that she had listened to the words of the queen mother on the surface, and obediently agreed to enter the mansion by herself, but secretly, but she put herself aside, didn't ask, and even asked herself not to go out of the gate of this courtyard, which was to put herself under house arrest.
However, Tang Jinxuan, I am different from the women I used to send into the house, I am the side concubine given by the queen's mother, and I can't send it away at will if you want to.
Because of the embarrassment of this night, hatred welled up in Li Yanran's eyes. She couldn't deal with the queen mother, so she could only transfer all her hatred to Tang Jinxuan. If she hadn't nodded in agreement, how could she have married into the Yunwang Mansion.
However, from beginning to end, Li Yanran didn't expect that she didn't dare to deal with the queen's mother, did Tang Jinxuan dare?
Therefore, sometimes, some people take the blame for themselves and never feel that they are wrong.
For Li Yanran's efforts, Tang Jinxuan has long known about it. Because she did it on purpose, otherwise who knows what kind of mess Li Yanran can make in the mansion, it is better to stimulate her to be ruthless, and the more she hates herself, the better, in this way, at least she can be solved as soon as possible.
There are too many people in this house, and her mind is outward, which makes her annoyed when she looks at it, but she can't refuse. If Li Yanran had a brain, if she could calm down, she would feel that this matter was strange, but she was a delicate girl who grew up in the Li family, and her mother hadn't taught her these conspiracy methods.
Of the three princes and three side concubines, only Wang Yuefen was happy, because on the night of marriage, the prince entered her house and made her a real woman. And the other two are guarding the empty room alone with hatred, especially Li Yanran, not to mention the groom, who didn't even see the princess. And Huang Man'er is slightly better, at least she met Princess Jin.
However, what can you do if you see it, King Jin is not in the mansion, even if you see the princess, you can't do anything, you have to kowtow obediently and say goodbye.
"The princess also lived in Qinglin Courtyard, and there was a child living in the Yi Pavilion, and I don't know whose family it was, calling the princess her sister, and the princess her brother-in-law, saying that the princess brought it from the Chen family," Li Yanran's personal maid Jiu'er used a lot of silver to find out about these.
"Don't the people in the house know the origin of this child?" For that child, Li Yanran paid attention to it, so she asked a few more questions.
"I don't know, I just said that the surname is Chen, and everyone in the house calls him the little young master, oh, and," remembering one thing, Jiu'er patted his head and continued: "There is a special girl in the house, she is the fourth daughter of Pei Yushi, a few days ago, she was injured by the prince and injured her forehead, and she is being raised in the Begonia Garden at this time,"
"Why was he injured by the prince?" Is this why the prince was confined before?
"I don't know, it was said that the prince came to the palace to find trouble with the prince, it should have been the prince who was originally injured, and the last one was replaced by Miss Pei, the injury was terrible, and the scar on the forehead couldn't be removed," Jiu'er remembered that picture, and couldn't help but tremble.
"Oh, really?" When Li Yanran heard this, she thought that this Pei Si girl could see the prince, which showed that she still had a certain status in the heart of the prince. And she was able to be injured in order to save the prince, which shows that she is also very affectionate to the prince. In this way, can I join forces with her?
If after eradicating Tang Jinxuan, she would have allowed her the position of side concubine, would she agree?
She is a concubine, and now she has not decided to marry, and she stays in the Yunwang Mansion every day, and her reputation has long been gone. According to her identity, giving her the title of a lady can be regarded as a promotion, but now she has the status of a side concubine, so it's no wonder that she is unhappy.
Li Yanran thought so in her heart, the more she thought about it, the more she felt right, thinking that she would catch up with the four girls of the Pei family as soon as possible, include her on her side, and then find a way to meet the prince, when the time comes, Tang Jinxuan wants to be dominant, it will be impossible.
Li Yanran, who thought she was smart, calculated step by step, but she didn't know that the entire palace was watching her jokes.
And at this moment, Jinxuan was greeting the county lord of Wanfu who came to the door.
"When you handed over the post that day, you met me who was unwell, and I didn't invite any guests in the house, so I didn't agree," Tang Jinxuan smiled and explained to her the reason why she didn't let her enter the house to accompany her. She also knew that Wanfu wanted to enter the palace when Li Yanran entered the door, not to fight for Li Yanran's face, but to accompany herself and comfort herself.
However, except for the Li family that day, the rest of the guests were all politely refused, and if she added a Wanfu county lord alone, wouldn't it be criticized, so she refused directly.
Wanfu didn't make a sound, just looked at the person who was smiling and talking, and saw that she was not unhappy, so she breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I'm worried that this cousin-in-law will be wronged, so I want to come and see," because she is now on the cusp of the storm, she doesn't dare to do too much.
