Chapter 118: The Prince's Outer Chamber
Among the four concubines of the prince, the prince did not show special affection to anyone, but he did not neglect anyone, so the backyard of the East Palace was quite harmonious, Zhang Liangdi and Lin Liangyuan, who had sons, were all in peace, and the princess did not care about things, so for so long, the backyard of the palace that has been quiet at night has been more lively, and the prince's East Palace has not moved.
Now that Ye Wuxian is having a headache about things in the backyard, the prince should naturally feel it.
Therefore, Hu Yiyi revealed that the prince had raised an outer room on the outskirts of the capital, which was revealed to the East Palace and passed on to the crown princess and the two side concubines.
"Can this be done? Why hasn't there been any movement for days? Qing Dai has been concerned about the movements of the East Palace, but she has not received the news she wants, and she can't help but worry that it will not be possible.
"It's only been a few days, are you so anxious? Even if the matter reaches their ears, according to their temperament, it is estimated that they have to be confirmed first, so they can't rush to question the prince, right? So wait a little longer! Hu Yi is not in a hurry, she has always liked to put a long line to catch big fish, and she has good patience.
"How can the girls be sure that they didn't make any movement because they wanted to verify it, and that they didn't have any plans at all? After all, this is the prince's business, can they manage it? Qing Dai frowned slightly.
"Seeing that these women in the East Palace are silent on weekdays, and no one has made any major incidents, you can know their temperament, and this matter, if you say it hard, they really can't control the prince's head...... But ......" Hu Yi thought about it for a while, and decided to say to them in a different way: "Let's guess what they think." ”
"What do they think?" Luan Yin was a little confused when he listened to it on the side.
"That's right," Hu Yi nodded, "Think about it, originally the degree of favor of several of them was about the same, but the status of the crown princess was higher, but this suddenly appeared an outer room, and it was still the outer room that the prince secretly raised outside the palace, it can be seen how favored this outer room is, won't they panic?" Although they all gave birth to children to the prince, they all have serious names, and that outer room doesn't even have a name now, but this kind of thing is too common in the palace, if the prince really favors the outer room, then it is a matter of time before the outer room enters the palace, and the peace of the East Palace will be broken at that time. ”
"After passing the peaceful days, I don't want to break this kind of day, after all, there are a lot of bloody and bloody winds in the harem, presumably the princess and they don't want to do this, but once the original peace is broken, they will live this kind of life, do you think they will want to?" After Hu Yi finished speaking, he asked rhetorically.
Qingdai and Luan Yin both shook their heads.
"Regardless of whether the three of them have ever had a knot or not, they are all famous and well-known, and they definitely don't want to see any outer rooms enter the palace to steal the prince's favor." Hu Yi finished speaking.
"So once the crown princess and the princess confirm it, they will find a way to deal with the five girls, whether it is to force people away, or simply kill the five girls, in short, they will definitely not let this matter develop." Qing Dai knows it in her heart.
Hu Yi nodded, remembering the whereabouts of the prince reported by Qingdai before, and smiled again: "Didn't you say before that the prince has always gone to Hu Wu's side in recent days?" So this kind of behavior falls in the eyes of the crown princess, is it certain that the prince loves Hu Wu very much? If you don't let it, how can you leave the palace every day to find Hu Wu. ”
"In this way, even if they are calm people, they should be a little unable to sit still." Luan Yin also had a smile in his eyes.
"So, let's just wait." Hu Yi was not in a hurry.
And at this moment in the East Palace, the crown princess Feng, Zhang Liangdi, and Lin Liangyuan were sitting together talking, and the three of them were tempting me to try, and in the end, it was the youngest Lin Liangyuan who couldn't help but be the first to say that the prince had raised an outer room outside the palace.
"You can't talk nonsense, if it is known by the imperial history, His Royal Highness will be impeached." The crown princess glanced at Lin Liangyuan quite majestically.
"Niangniang, this is not a concubine's random nonsense, think about it, in the past few days, we have not seen any trace of His Highness at all, this is not like this on weekdays!" Lin Liangyuan was afraid that the crown princess would not believe it, so she hurriedly continued: "The concubine originally thought that His Royal Highness was a little strange, but today I heard an aunt from the concubine's mother's family that she saw His Royal Highness the Crown Prince in a village on the outskirts of Beijing...... There is a woman living in the village on weekdays......"
The crown princess frowned: "Maybe the prince is just looking for her to have something, don't think about it." ”
"But the concubine's aunt has inquired, and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince has been going almost every day recently! And the Zhuangzi used to be uninhabited, not long ago it changed hands, and then a woman lived in, only His Royal Highness the Crown Prince often went over there, and the people around said that the woman was the outer room raised by His Royal Highness, but they didn't know the identity of His Royal Highness the Prince. Lin Liangyuan said half-truths.
"Okay, Hongu knows." The crown princess's performance is indeed faint.
Seeing this, Zhang Liangdi couldn't help but say more: "Niangniang, what Sister Lin said, I'm afraid it's not groundless......
"Oh? You've heard about it, too? The crown princess turned her gaze to Zhang Liangdi.
Zhang Liangdi secretly sneered in her heart, their princess has always been pretending, the prince raised an outer room outside the palace, she and Lin Liangyuan both heard about it, she didn't believe that the princess didn't know anything!
However, secretly slandering the abdomen, Zhang Liangdi still had to respectfully answer the crown princess: "Yes, His Royal Highness has been a little abnormal recently, and the concubine thought it was because of the affairs of the previous dynasty, but who knew that His Royal Highness the Crown Prince had raised an outer room outside......
"So, how true is that?" The crown princess didn't have any expression on her face, so that people couldn't see what she was thinking.
If Hu Yi is here, he will know that the reason why the backyard of the East Palace is so calm is not because Zhang Liangdi and Lin Liangyuan don't want to fight, nor because the prince has a bowl of water, but because of this princess.
"If it's something that doesn't have a score, how dare I get it to you." Lin Liangyuan nodded.
"Originally, the concubine shouldn't have asked about this matter, but the concubine felt that since she knew, she still had to tell the mother, after all, if the matter of the outer room was known by others, His Royal Highness would have to be impeached, and Lord Feng was the lord of the Imperial Procuratorate, wouldn't this be a flood that washed the Dragon King Temple at that time! If this is the case, presumably Lord Feng will not be able to do it at that time. Compared with Lin Liangyuan, Zhang Liangdi has been in the palace for a longer time and knows the princess better.
This crown princess doesn't care too much about whether she is favored or not, as long as the prince gives her enough table as the main room, the prince can spoil whoever he wants, so even if the prince raises an outer room outside, the princess will not do anything.
But the crown princess's biggest weakness is that she cares too much about her mother's family, so Zhang Liangdi started with the princess's father, and she didn't believe that the princess would care about this matter.
"If it is because of a small outer room, it affects the relationship between Lord Feng and His Royal Highness, it is not beautiful." Zhang Liangdi smiled slightly and accepted the words.
"When His Highness comes back, ask His Highness, if this is the case, the palace will persuade His Highness, if His Highness really likes that woman, let him include that woman in the East Palace!" The smile on the crown princess's face was also kind.
Of course, the crown princess knew that Zhang Liangdi was provoking her, but it didn't matter, what Zhang Liangdi said was also true, she should thank Zhang Liangdi, but she was not so stupid to be this upstart.
She also heard about the matter of the outer room, and sent someone to inquire, she knew even more than Zhang Liangdi and Lin Liangyuan, it must be that the prince bought something for that woman, sent those people to serve, and how to protect it so tightly that her people have not been able to see the woman's face or anything like that.
This made the crown princess see the prince's love for that woman, so how could she be stupid enough to be a gunman for Zhang Liangdi and them? This is too much to underestimate her.
What's more, what she wants is not the prince's favor at all, what if the prince favors the outer room, as long as the outer room enters the East Palace, she still has to kowtow to her, the crown princess.
But this is different for Zhang Liangdi and Lin Liangyuan.
"When His Highness comes back, ask His Highness, if this is the case, the palace will persuade His Highness, if His Highness really likes that woman, let him include that woman in the East Palace!" The smile on the crown princess's face was also kind.
But Zhang Liangdi and Lin Liangyuan's faces became ugly, and in this way, the smile on the princess's face became deeper and deeper.
The women on the side of the Prince's East Palace have their own concerns, and the night is not much better.
Ye Wuxian doesn't know what happened to his uncle recently, he has to give an explanation for Pei Wenyue's death, but what can he give an explanation? He didn't kill people!
Not only has his uncle become inexplicable recently, but even his mother has been a little strange recently, not only did she not help him appease his uncle, but she actually asked him to be more considerate of his uncle! said that his uncle has always been very fond of Pei Wenyue's daughter, but now that her daughter is suddenly gone, it is understandable that she can't accept it for a while.
But he understands them, who will understand him?!
No, there is still one, his side concubine Wei Lingyue, and his son Zhao'er.
In today's Zhou Wangfu, Pei Wenyue and Hu Wu are gone, so there are only Wei Lingyue, the side concubine and two concubines, and the two concubines have long fallen out of favor, so only Wei Lingyue often goes to Ye Wuxian, but Wei Lingyue is now pregnant and has no way to serve Ye Wuxian, and Ye Wuxian occasionally goes to the two concubines.
Even so, the two concubines didn't dare to think about it in the slightest, after all, the women in the backyard had natural intuition, Pei Wenyue and Hu Wu had never fought Wei Lingyue, so where would they be Wei Lingyue's opponents? Therefore, even if the two concubines can occasionally get the grace of the night, they dare not be presumptuous in front of Wei Lingyue.
In this way, Wei Lingyue's life became more and more comfortable.
After knowing the troubles of Ye Wuxian, Wei Lingyue had an idea and said to Ye Wuxian: "Has the prince ever thought that Lord Pei is like this, maybe not only because of the death of the princess?" ”
"That?" Ye Wuxian was slightly stunned.
"After all, the princess is the 'princess' first, and she is the daughter of Lord Pei......" Wei Lingyue is now speaking more and more skillfully.
"Do you mean that my uncle is so entangled with this king because he has no 'princess'?" Ye Wuxian's eyes narrowed slightly, and he quickly understood.
Wei Lingyue covered her mouth and smiled coquettishly: "This is what the prince said, not what the concubine said." ”
Seeing Wei Lingyue's appearance, Ye Wuxian also smiled: "You, you are so cautious!" If there is anything that can't be said in front of this king, if it weren't for you, this king would probably have to wait for his uncle to say it to know! ”
