If you want to say that the most depressed person in King Qi's mansion should belong to the eighth lady.

When she first entered the palace, she was infinitely beautiful, favored by the prince and sought after by others. Glory and wealth, honor and decency, what you want.

But in a short period of time, a ninth lady came, and the prince has never been to her house again, and she can't see the prince and don't say it, the prince has an accident, so she was scolded by the queen mother, but she was really depressed.

The eighth lady hated in her heart, hated the ninth lady for robbing her favor, hated the princess for stuffing the prince to her, so that she was neither liked by the prince nor treated by the queen mother.

However, she didn't plan to be caught, she still wanted to fight for herself, she didn't believe that with her young beauty, she couldn't win back the prince's heart.

She knew that King Qi went to Qiushui Garden most often, so she planned to stay in Qiushui Garden every day, just looking forward to meeting the prince, as long as she could see the prince, she would have a chance, so Concubine Jiang would not drive people away.

stayed in Qiushuiyuan for two days in a row, but it just so happened that Liu Xu didn't come to Qiushuiyuan because of his busy official business in the past two days, so he stepped on the air, but looking at her appearance, he didn't plan to give up at all.

If she comes to visit the door, she will change after an hour or two, she will stay for a day, everyone will have to serve her, and Mo Ziyu will have to cheer up to accompany her, which will be really annoying.

Lu Qiao brought a cup of freshly brewed tea to Mrs. Eight, and said euphemistically: "Mrs. Eight, you see that it is not too early at this time, and the concubine's body has not been very good recently, so she needs to rest." ”

"Oh, Concubine Jiang is going to rest!" said the eighth lady in surprise, "You go and rest, you don't have to accompany me." Your tea here is delicious, I'll leave when I'm done!"

Mo Ziyu shook her head helplessly, stopped caring about her, and went inside to rest.

Qing Ling stepped forward with a smile and said, "Eighth Madam, this tea is a big red robe sent by Princess Qin, Concubine Jiang said it, if you like it, take some back and brew it to drink!"

"What's so embarrassing about that!"

"By the way, there is another copy here, which is prepared for the third lady, and I will send it to the third lady later, I heard my brother say that the prince is at the third lady's place at this time!"

"The prince is at the third lady's place!" the eighth lady was happy in her eyes, "I am also planning to go back now, and I will bring the tea to her by the way, so you don't have to run again!"

"In this way, thank you to Mrs. Eight. ”

"Cuiping, bring the tea leaves. ”

"Yes. Then Cuiping came over with two points of tea, and the eighth lady asked the maid to take it, and prepared to leave.

Qing Ling hurriedly said: "Didn't the Eighth Lady just say that she likes this tea, this tea hasn't been finished yet!"

"Oh, I have some things to deal with at this time, I'll come back for tea another day, talk to Concubine Jiang, I'll leave first." As she spoke, the eighth lady hurriedly left and headed for Qiongfang Courtyard.

Lu Qiao smiled slightly on the side and gave a thumbs up to Qing Ling: "You still have a way." I really don't understand why this eighth lady is entangled with our girl!"

"She's not pestering our girl, she's trying to entangle the prince!" Qing Ling smiled, "Thinking about being able to see the prince here, but I don't want to think about it, even if I see the prince, there is a girl, can the prince have her in his eyes?"

"It's not!" Lu Qiao raised her eyebrows, "The prince is really sincere to our girls!"

Liu Xu was really here with the third lady, because there was news from the You family.

The third lady read her father's letter and said with relief: "The concubine body does not spray this other now, and the parents are healthy, which is the greatest wish." Although they were exiled to the capital, they have now settled down, and their father has also come out, opened a academy, taught and educated people, and the concubine is very happy in body and mind, and only hopes that his father will not be confused again. ”

"Yes, although the You family is no longer in the capital, in the end it is still full of peaches and plums, he has a belly of knowledge, and he can come out and teach the world to cultivate talents for Northern Xia, in the end, it is still the humerus of Northern Xia. Liu Xu took a sip of tea and said, "It's good that they are so low-key now, and their lives are steady, and no one will worry about them." ”

The third lady got up, blessed Liu Xu, and said: "My father did something wrong before, and almost affected the prince, but fortunately, the prince helped to save the You family. was able to settle in the local area without being disturbed, presumably the prince also contributed a lot, and the concubine was grateful to the prince on behalf of the whole family. ”

"It's all a family, you don't have to say such a thing, you forget, when I was a child, it was your father who enlightened me, without him, there would be no me now. Liu Xu said, "How is your body in recent days?"

"I've been taking medicine to condition my body, and now I'm much healthier than before. The third lady sat down and said, and then a wry smile appeared on her lips, "It's the prince, I haven't come to see the concubine for a long time." However, the concubine also understands that now the newcomers in the palace are better than the old ones, and they don't dare to expect the prince to want to see it from time to time, but just hope that the prince will not forget me as a person. ”

"In recent days, this king has indeed snubbed you. Liu Xu said, "If you are free, this king will come to talk to you more." ”

"The concubine knows that the prince is affectionate, and he won't really call me wronged, and the face, wealth and wealth will be given to the concubine, after all, we have the love to grow up together. The third lady said with a wry smile, "But this person is always easy to be greedy, especially women, who are easy to be greedy." The concubine thought that we grew up together, and there was always a place in the prince's heart, but I think the concubine thought too much. After so many years, the concubine has always been just a passerby in the heart of the prince. ”

After a pause, the third lady said again: "The concubine body can't figure it out, why can't the concubine body, but Concubine Jiang can? Because Concubine Jiang is similar to that person?"

She didn't frown slightly, revealing a trace of doubt: "The concubine thinks that the princess treats Concubine Jiang differently because Concubine Jiang is similar to that person, but there is a ninth lady who is more similar to that person, why is the princess still slowly concubine Jiang in his heart?

Liu Xu's eyes narrowed, and he was silent for a moment and said, "Perhaps, what you said is right." ”

"It's been more than ten years. The third lady smiled helplessly, "The concubine still remembers the look you had when you first talked to the concubine about that person, her eyes flashed with unprecedented brilliance, and her expression was unprecedentedly gentle, I was not convinced at that time, I secretly saw her once from afar that day, I have never seen such a beautiful person, the moment I saw her, I knew that I lost!"

"In the past ten years, you haven't necessarily lived happily in the palace, why did you insist on marrying this king in the first place?" asked Liu Xu holding a teacup.

"The prince also knew that the concubine was not happy, in the past ten years, sometimes the concubine herself did not know herself, the concubine became scheming and the city, like to calculate and like jealousy, greedy for the tenderness of the prince, greedy for the status and glory of the palace, fighting for it, counting and calculating, and in the end it was empty. The third lady lifted her hair bun, "Back then, the concubine Zizi confidently thought that the concubine body could replace her position! ”

While talking, I could only hear the maid report outside: "Lord Wang, the third lady, and the eighth lady are asking to see you outside." ”

A hint of sarcasm flashed in the third lady's eyes, and she said lightly, "Please let her in." ”

After the eighth lady entered, she pretended to be surprised and said, "It turns out that the prince is also here with the third lady, I have seen the prince!"

"Flatten. Liu Xu said lightly.

"Thank you. The eighth lady said with a smile, "The concubine has just come from Qiushui Garden, Concubine Jiang prepared some tea for the third lady, and I sent it by the way, I knew that the prince was here, so I would come later, so as not to disturb you." ”

Liu Xu took a sip of tea and asked, "How is Concubine Jiang's mood today?"

"It's good, I also laughed with the concubine!" said the eighth lady, she said that she was afraid of disturbing the third lady and netizens, so she didn't plan to leave when she sat down, and searched her stomach and found some interesting things to tell Liu Xu.

There was some gossip on the left and right, Liu Xu was not interested, but his head hurt because of her chattering voice, he raised his hand to ask the eighth lady to stop talking anymore, and ordered: "You go and tell the princess, and the king will go to her for dinner later, and you will stay with you later." ”

The eighth lady's face sank after listening to the first half of the sentence, and after listening to the second half of the sentence, she became a little happier, and got up and went to inform the princess.

Liu Xu talked with the third lady for a while, recalling some interesting stories when he was a child.

The third lady sighed: "It would be great if time could go back, forever staying in our childhood, carefree, and I don't know what troubles are." ”

Liu Xu got up to leave, and the third lady sent him off.

Lan'er sighed: "The prince finally came back, why don't you persuade the prince to stay? How long has it been since the prince has not pampered his wife? It wasn't like this before, although the second lady was strong before, the prince was still impartial in the end, but now she is the concubine Jiang Fang, and I don't know what ecstasy she poured into the prince." ”

The third lady waved her hand and said, "I lost." ”

"The matter is not over yet, madam, why do you say that you have failed?" Lan'er said a little unwillingly, Madame's body was ruined by the former princess before, and she lingered on the sickbed for so long, and the prince didn't come to see it a few times, and now that Concubine Jiang is just unwell, the prince almost stayed in Qiushui Garden, how eccentric.

"Concubine Jiang did what I wanted to do but didn't do, didn't I just lose?" The third lady smiled shallowly, "The favor of the prince is not the most important thing for me, I just want to be able to be safe and secure in the palace now, only in this way can my distant family live a prosperous life." ”
