Chapter 21: The Emperor's Decision
The Xiao family here is still relieved because of what Xiao Yu said in the morning, and the news that the two princes are asking to marry Xiao Liangyun at the same time spread out of the capital at the same time. And here the dead lady Bai Wanniang is happy and proud, she herself knows that with Xiao Qingqing's temperament, she can't climb the high branch of the imperial prince, but she doesn't accept Wang Huiyan. Xiao Liangyu is a concubine, and Wang Huiyan's family background is illustrious, but she is also a concubine like her.
She has been fighting with Wang Huiyan for more than ten years, and now she has successfully conceived a child, as long as there is no accident, her day of getting ahead is coming, not to mention the most favored, maybe the position of the eldest lady in charge is hers.
"Oh, who made it impossible for you to give birth to a son." Bai Wanniang watched her show with a smile this time, but this Xiao Liangyu really looked like she was really hidden.
"Bi'er, go to Hibiscus Garden to find out." Bai Xuanniang stroked her stomach and hummed, "Child, child, you have to fight for your mother." ”
Inside the Hibiscus Garden.
"Smack!" The thud of the teacup shattered on the ground, and the tea soup splashed everywhere. The people in the garden all knelt on the ground of the outhouse in a panic and didn't dare to say anything, only Qiu Jin was left lying on the ground to clean up the fragments of the teacup, and Dongqu stood beside Wang Huiyan to help her fan her, "Madam, it's not good for you to dissipate your anger, it's not good to hurt your body." ”
"Hurt your body, hurt your body, you waste, you have been serving for so many years one by one, and you are not as smart and sleek as a little girl who just served a yellow-haired girl." Wang Huiyan shouted angrily, and scolded Xiao Yu who was panicked next to her as if she thought of something, "You too!" I spent so much time and energy to find the best people in the capital to teach you, just so that you can get ahead one day, what is the result! You've been studying for so long and you're still not as good as her! Rubbish! Rubbish! ”
"Mother! Can you blame me? It's not to blame that the killer you hired yourself didn't completely cut the grass and kill her and let her escape! Xiao Yu's grievances of being scolded, and the pressure of so many years couldn't help but explode, yelling at Wang Huiyan.
"Smack!" slapped Xiao Yu on the face, and soon Xiao Yu's right cheek showed palm prints. Xiao Yu was stunned for a while, and after feeling the pain, her expression became complicated, her nose was sore, and tears in her eyes couldn't help but gush out, and her little face turned red, "I hate you!" You will never get the position of the eldest lady for the rest of your life, you will be a concubine for the rest of your life! I hate you, hate you, hate you! She ran out of the house crying and with all her might.
Chuxin Pavilion
The faint fragrance of Su Mi surrounded the house, Qiluo specially lit this incense to soothe Xiao Liangyun's body and mind, she gently took off Xiao Liangyun's back, looking at the long scar on her back and couldn't help but feel distressed, it was because of her own negligence Miss was injured. She slowly gave her the medicine little by little, "Miss, does it hurt?" ”
Xiao Liangyu bit his lip and barely smiled, "It's okay, I don't hurt, you continue to take medicine." She endured the pain while thinking about Xiao Yu's words in the morning, Helian should be helping herself, she slowly fell into memory.
When she was about ten years old, Luo Qinghe secretly went down the mountain to take her to buy sugar gourds, and happened to meet a family marrying a girl, the girl was wearing a red hijab and sitting in a red sedan chair as gentle as water.
"Yu'er, what kind of man do you want to marry in the future?"
"Me?" With round black eyes, the innocent girl licked the sugar gourd and said proudly, "The man I want to marry must be a sincere man who is loyal to me alone in his life and has ambitions." You have to, like a brother! The sweet and glutinous voice is different from the cuteness of saying such things. Luo Qinghe touched her head and smiled dotingly.
"Okay, I'm going to marry my senior brother in the future."
"Good! When Yu'er becomes an adult, she will marry her senior brother as a daughter-in-law! ”
"Hahahaha."
"Senior Brother Luo......" His eyes slowly became lonely, but he couldn't go back to the past, and he couldn't keep his vow to marry Luo Qinghe. I'm here. Suddenly, Helianye's voice appeared in her ears again, "Poof." Thinking of Helian's nervous appearance, she couldn't help but snicker.
"Huh? Miss, did Qiluo hurt you? ”
"Huh?" Xiao Liangyun turned around, "Huh? No, no. ”
"What's going on lately, Miss, I've been distracted."
"Nope!"
Prince Chengqian Palace
The beautiful woman in the golden palace costume sat in the side hall and tasted tea slowly, while Helian Yan paced back and forth, "Mother concubine, you said, the seventh brother never participates in political affairs in the court on weekdays, but today he actually quarrels with me in the court, you say, what's the matter, and my father didn't directly decree to give me the marriage book, but said you are casual?" ”
The lid of the delicate teacup gently rubbed back and forth on the slightly hot gas, and Concubine Yu stared at him quietly with her pitiful eyes, and the corners of her mouth hooked up a contemptuous smile.
"Bengong said, Bengong has taught you for so many years, so I taught you such a temperament?"
"Mother!" Helian Yan sat in his position fiercely, "Think about it, the seventh brother has the support of the Fu family, and among the younger brothers, you don't know the ability of the seventh brother, he has been stronger than me since he was a child, but his temperament is cold and arrogant, and he has always had a bad relationship with his father, and these ministers in the court all like him." He often does things to deal with river disasters and help victims.
"What does the Fu family have, isn't it still sent by the palace to a distant fief as a broken title, now most of the court camp is your camp, even if your father does not give you the crown prince ceremony, you are also an upright prince." The beautiful woman put the teacup on the saucer, "This palace doesn't understand, why do you have to marry an ordinary Jiangmen woman, even if she is very beautiful, she is not favored in the Xiao Mansion, you might as well ask to marry the daughter of Prime Minister Tan's family and get the support of the prime minister." As for the eldest daughter of the Xiao family, if you like it, just marry her as a side room. After speaking, she raised her hand, and the slave maid behind her immediately stood up and helped her up, "I'm back to the palace, your father said that he would come to my palace today, and when your father comes to the Yiyuan Palace, I'll just go and tell you about it." ”
The beautiful woman drove back to the Yiyuan Palace, and the palace of the most favored concubine in the palace was extremely luxurious, and the slaves and maids all stood aside. The beautiful woman slowly entered the hall, opened the carved hollow treasure furnace, and added a spoonful of spices. "The emperor has arrived!"
The beautiful woman smiled and straightened her clothes and got up to greet her.
"The concubines see the emperor."
"Flat."
The emperor opened his hands casually, and Concubine Yu followed him behind the screen to remove his clothes for him and help him change into civilian clothes.
In the quiet hall, only Helian Qian and Yu Guifei were left, and Yu Guifei gently sat behind Helian Qian and massaged him. "Ah, it's better to be considerate of you." Helian sighed and leaned comfortably on the soft bunk of gold wire.
"The emperor has been working on state affairs recently, and of course the concubines also want to share more for the emperor."
"Anyway, Yan'er should have looked for you."
"Your Majesty, are you talking about the marriage contract?"
"That's right, your good son came to me today to get married." Saying that, he sighed, "Both sons have asked me for marriage, and this daughter of the Xiao family is blessed." ”
"Your Majesty, what do you think?" Concubine Yu naturally continued to beat her back, she had accompanied the emperor in the harem for so many years, and she had already developed a demeanor that did not change her face.
"I don't know, but there are several daughters of the Xiao family, the second daughter will be given to the seventh child, and the concubine will be given to the prince." Helian Qian said helplessly, "That's it." ”
"The concubines are only on the orders of His Majesty." Concubine Yu stopped her hand and gently rubbed Helian Qian's arms, but her eyes narrowed even tighter.
