Chapter 90: His Marriage
"His Royal Highness the Prince is gifted and intelligent, how could he be deceived by others?" Fu Yunhuang's eyes flowed.
"You stupid girl is just giving you a blame for this master." He said unhurriedly, "In the future, learn to be smart and calculate people, it is rare for my mother to like you so much, but if you learn a little bit from my mother, you don't have to end up like this today." ”
Seeing that the words had already been spoken, Fu Yunhuang had nothing to hide, "I thought that His Royal Highness the Prince would say that if the concubine body calculates her again, he will take the concubine's life." ”
Shi Ran looked at her with a smile, "Will you listen?" ”
Fu Yunhuang tugged at the corners of his lips, "What do you think, Your Highness?" Now in the princess's mansion, even the concubine does not embarrass her, and someone calculates her, but today she is really impressive, but she was deceived by her cowering appearance in the past. ”
Ruan Lu sneered, but he didn't deny these words, just walked over slowly and came to Fu Yunhuang's side, "You sleep outside tonight, I hope this matter reaches anyone's ears." ”
Fu Yunhuang's dark eyes carried a touch of coldness, she knew that she was going to be planted here in this life, and there was no way out.
"His Royal Highness the Prince is indeed a righteous man and a gentleman, a person who does not sit still." Her fingers hooked up the green silk, but the corners of her lips were a coquettish smile, "How many men in the world covet my beauty, and only His Royal Highness the Prince regards me as a mustard." ”
Ruan Lu squinted at her, "In front of this son." You can't even compare to the mustard, you look so ugly, and you say such unashamed things. ”
"It's really sad, today His Royal Highness stayed in my room for the first time, and said such a thing, it seems that tomorrow I will have to cry with the eldest princess, but whether the eldest princess will be angry with your sweetheart, it's not certain."
"Sure enough, they are all thousand-year-old foxes." Ruan Lu looked at her, and then walked over slowly. Lowering his head and whispering in her ear, "But how about this son of the world can help you do what you want most?" ”
"Oh?"
"My father-in-law is really useless, I can't even get rid of a Shi family, it seems that I have to help you with this son." He smiled nonchalantly.
"Why do you want to help me, I don't know what His Royal Highness is planning?"
"Who doesn't know how disgusted this son is, I wish he was defeated and stepped on hard." Ruan Lu smiled cruelly, and then reached out and took out a few pieces of paper that had been drawn from his cuffs, "There are several officials in Suzhou who have been disposed of for corruption and perversion of the law, and they all insist that they have sent antique calligraphy and paintings to Mrs. Shi, which is enough to bring down Mrs. Shi." ”
"Thank you, Your Highness." Fu Yunhuang smiled, then pulled out the only golden hairpin between his temples and cut his palm.
Drops of blood kept falling on the plain handkerchief on the bed, and she said slowly, "Don't worry, the concubine will never say more than half a word in front of the eldest princess in the future." ”
******
The days of the fire until the evening. Only then did the breeze gradually start to get cooler.
Guan Yue had already heard about today's incident, and seeing that Sizhu was gone, she couldn't help but break out in a cold sweat, only to feel that Lian Zhi'er's mind was gloomy, so she didn't dare to be rampant anymore.
She only served Lian Zhi'er and Ah Kong to sleep before leaving.
Lian Zhi'er didn't sleep, but just hugged the swaddling Ah Kong and walked to the extremely desolate courtyard next door.
Inside the house was a flickering flame, flickering and dimming, which only made people feel creepy.
Qiongluo saw her come in, still holding a child in her arms, and the only pair of eyes rolled, "It seems that you did a good job today, and your own child was taken back." ”
She bit her lip, "If it weren't for you helping me, he would still be suffering now." ”
Qiong Luo sneered, "What are these means, that princess is too incompetent, in front of that poisonous woman, it is simply ridiculous." Presumably, the poisonous woman already knew what was going on, but she didn't expect to protect the princess like this, she must be the daughter-in-law she likes. ”
Lian Zhi'er didn't say a word, she knew that the eldest princess hated her deeply.
However, at this moment, I saw Qiongluo's gaze fall on Akong's face, and there was a little tremor in his voice, "Can you hug your child for me." ”
Lian Zhi'er hesitated for a moment, but walked over slowly and handed Ah Kong into Qiongluo's arms.
Qiongluo was trembling all over, and it took a long time to shed a line of tears, "It's like my son, he is also so well-behaved and cute, if he is alive, I am afraid that he will already marry a wife and have children." It was she who threw him in the brazier and burned him alive, it was the poisonous woman. ”
Lian Zhi'er only felt creepy.
"It's pathetic." After all, they are all mothers, and Lian Zhi'er has a little pity in her eyes.
"Lian'er, if you want, I can help you get the position of the princess, I just need you to help me get out of here."
"Why do I want to be the princess?" There was a hint of sorrow in her eyes, "I don't want to be his wife, and I don't love him." ”
Qiongluo looked at her for a long time, then pulled the corners of her lips, and only said slowly, "I see." ”
*****
Ruan Lu slept in Fu Yunhuang's house for several days in a row, and the people in the mansion quietly discussed in private every day, only saying that the two of them were very affectionate, and the noble Lian'er was left behind by the son.
And those minions suddenly began to bully Lian Zhi'er again.
On this day, Lian Zhi'er got up for breakfast, and saw Guan Yue standing aside with a strange face, until Lian Zhi'er sat at the table with a strange face, and then hesitated, "Madam, you can eat some porridge for breakfast." Today, I boiled japonica rice porridge, and the slave maid smelled it and felt fragrant. ”
Lian Zhi'er only looked at the three dishes on the table, only to feel a disgusting and pungent taste sweeping over, "Didn't you say that my meals were all leftovers from the eldest princess and the princess?" It's all done in moderation, how can it be spoiled? ”
Guan Yue said, "It was those minions in the kitchen who deliberately made it difficult, and the slaves and maids reasoned with them, and they only scolded me, but I am afraid that this was deliberately rancid yesterday." ”
Lian Zhi'er suddenly laughed, "I want to see if the steward comes to see me, and there are still people who hate Mrs. Ben so much that they want to starve me to death." ”
Guan Yue hesitated, "Don't make trouble today, the princess is going to dine with the eldest princess and the concubine at noon today, if you go to embarrass the people in the kitchen, I'm afraid ......"
Lian Zhi'er pulled the corners of her lips carelessly, with a hint of calculation in her eyes, "Oh? Is it? Then you help Mrs. Ben to do something, you remember, if you make a mistake, we will lose everything. ”
"Madame, what do you want your slave to do?" Guan Yue already had a bad premonition.
Lian Zhi'er looked at the glutinous rice on the table, and smiled slowly, "Since my meal is the same as that of the eldest princess, if you occasionally serve the wrong plate, you can also do it." ”
*******
It was just after noon, and Ruan Lu came to the eldest princess's house with Fu Yunhuang's hand.
But I saw that the horse was talking to the eldest princess. It's a rare harmony.
After Ruan Lu and Fu Yunhuang sat down, some maids brought tea with tea trays.
The eldest princess only instructed the maid beside her, "Go and see, whether the meal is arranged." ”
As soon as her words fell, she heard a commotion outside, and someone seemed to be shouting, "This bamboo shoot is rancid, don't take it out quickly." ”
"It's better to return all the food in this food box, I'm afraid it's all contaminated with the taste." A maid exclaimed, "This plate is also wrong, when has such a broken plate been used in the princess's house?" ”
"Go add some incense and cover up the smell."
The eldest princess was very unhappy when she saw that there was a lot of trouble outside, so she ordered the maid to arrest the noisy people, and then she realized that the people in the kitchen had mistakenly brought the rancid rice.
The eldest princess didn't care too much, and only ordered someone to get a month's worth of silver rice from the kitchen steward.
But there were a few less dishes on the table, and soon everyone was seated.
The eldest princess didn't let Fu Yunhuang make dishes at the table, but only let her sit together.
Fu Yunhuang only sat down elegantly and generously, only washed his hands, and sat beside Ruan Lu.
At this moment, I saw a sound of footsteps outside, and soon there was a message from the girls, saying that Lian'er had come to take the blame.
The eldest princess didn't like Lian Zhi'er in the first place, but now that the family is having a meal with kindness, she wants to come, so she snorted coldly. "Let her wait, it's not too late to condemn her later."
Ruan Lu frowned tightly, and his dark eyes looked at his father.
Yan Hou hurriedly smiled, "This summer day, let her wait outside to do something, let her come in." ”
The eldest princess couldn't refute Yan Hou's face, and soon Lian Zhi'er was invited in.
But as soon as Lian Zhi'er came in, he knelt on the ground, still holding a plate of bamboo shoots in his hand, "Your Royal Highness the eldest princess forgives the sins, the meal was delivered wrong in the kitchen, and you were sent to the concubine's house, and the concubine's was sent to you." ”
The eldest princess's face stiffened slightly, but when she saw that there was no bamboo shoots on her table, she immediately understood.
Yan Hou smiled, "You kid is timid, look at this bamboo shoot, you only found out after eating most of this bamboo shoot, you don't know how hungry you are." ”
Lian Zhi'er was a little embarrassed. only blushed, "The concubine hasn't eaten for a long time, so I can't help but eat a few more bites." ”
"Where is it at this time, who doesn't know that the old man likes this dish the most, why didn't he get it to your house for every meal?" Yan Hou asked with a smile.
Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but have red circles in her eyes, and she didn't say anything for a while, as if she was very aggrieved.
At this time, Fu Yunhuang's face had changed, and he only asked, "Could it be that the wrong dish was sent by the right person is my sister's?" It's all gone, and those people don't know what to do. ”
And at this moment, I saw Guan Yue behind Lian Zhi'er kneeling on the ground all of a sudden, and said aggrievedly, "None of the meals in the kitchen these days are not rancid, and Mrs. can only eat some porridge every day, and even half a dish is ......."
Lian Zhi'er couldn't help but be frightened, looking trembling, only turned around and scolded urgently, "Don't stop talking." ”
But the words have already been spoken, even if someone with a heart wants to cover it up.
Ruan Lu still didn't speak, and seemed to pay no attention to Lian Zhi'er's grievances.
Yan Hou said coldly, "There are still such servants in our mansion, and we have to deal with it earlier if we give the master a lot of food every day." ”
The eldest princess's eyes showed a touch of impatience, and she only instructed the grandmother beside her, "Go and drive the grandmother who is on an errand in the kitchen out of the mansion, and she will not be allowed to enter the mansion on an errand in the future." ”
Lian Zhi'er sneered. Such a light punishment.
And at this moment, he saw Ruan Lu Senran and said, "Mother, you are so kind to these minions, and the son thinks that it is right to make an example of a good life." ”
Everyone didn't think that Ruan Lu actually spoke for Lian Zhi'er, and the eldest princess's face was even more ugly, but she still said. "That's it, it's been a long time since I've been fasting and chanting Buddha, and I don't want to be too harsh on those minions, just send them down."
Ruan Lu raised his eyelids and said slowly, "Beat the kitchen steward with a hundred boards, and then throw them out of the mansion, and the rest of the people, all twenty boards." If there is such a thing in the future, just kill him. ”
Xu is murderous aura on his face was too heavy, and Lian Zhi'er actually felt a chill in his back.
Lian Zhi'er looked grateful, and got up to say goodbye and go back.
But Ruan Lu said slowly, "Since your food is all rancid, then why go back, besides, they have been beaten, where is the time to cook for you, you just eat here together." ”
Everyone didn't dare to get the dishes and chopsticks, just waiting for the eldest princess's orders.
The eldest princess knew that her son was going to lift Lian Zhi'er, so she looked directly at Lian Zhi'er with a loving face, "You girl has been wronged, don't say it, if it weren't for today's trouble, would you still be able to endure it for a lifetime, just sit down." ”
Sure enough, the maids hurriedly brought stools, arranged the dishes and chopsticks, and only placed them on Ruan Lu's left, and Fu Yunhuang on his right.
Fu Yunhuang also smiled gently, "Whatever my sister wants to eat, just eat, my mother's food here is excellent, even the gods in the sky can eat it." ”
When they heard this, everyone couldn't help laughing.
Lian Zhi'er didn't expect to eat here, just looked at the table full of delicacies, but felt that it was better to go back and nibble on his hard steamed buns, but he still had to sit down.
Lian Zhi'er only grabbed the chopsticks, but saw that the maids had already sandwiched crab meat and fish for her, Lian Zhi'er didn't like to eat these, but she still endured it and reluctantly ate it.
But the crab meat really couldn't be swallowed, so I only took a bite and spit it back.
And at this moment, I saw Ruan Lu instructing the maid next to her, "Give her some mutton." ”
His voice was soft, but everyone could hear it clearly, and the eldest princess's face was a little pale. It's been displeased.
Sure enough, the maids only sandwiched some roast mutton and put it in Lian Zhi'er's bowl, and Lian Zhi'er only ate one bite and finished it, but he felt that he was still unsatisfied, and he still wanted to eat it.
Ruan Lu's eyes looked at the roast mutton that was far away, "Give it all to her." ”
The rules in the princess's mansion are the same as those in the palace, but none of these talents can exceed three hoops, which seems to be a broken rule.
But Lian Zhi'er didn't realize it, and ate mutton in a big gulp since she was a child, only to see the maid put a whole plate in front of her, and immediately ate it in a big gulp.
And at this moment, I heard Ruan Lu's distressed voice coming, "You eat slowly, is there still someone who can't rob you?" ”
After speaking, he personally poured a cup of tea for Lian Zhi'er.
The maids serving on the side can see it clearly, and they all say that Lian Zhi'er is not favored by the world, but now it is not the case, and today's news is out, I am afraid that no one will dare to blatantly bully Lian Zhi'er.
The eldest princess understood everything, but she was dull and silent. Now I'm afraid that his son is also suspicious of her, and Lian Zhi'er is embarrassed.
And at this very moment. The eldest princess said slowly, "I haven't seen Huan'er for a long time, these days she is in the palace, and the queen mother is too spoiled, but I am afraid that she will become more and more rude." ”
Huan'er is the eldest princess's youngest daughter Ruan Ruhuan, when Lian Zhi'er first entered the princess's mansion to withdraw from her relatives, she was still a young girl at that time, and she lived in the palace to accompany the queen mother all these years, and only occasionally went back to the mansion to greet the eldest princess.
"She's not too young, and since her brothers have become relatives, she should have set up a family for her earlier." Yan Hou was rarely interested, and he actually talked about it in front of everyone.
"I have already thought of someone for her, and I will return to the Queen Mother when I enter the palace another day, just waiting for the marriage." The eldest princess had already put down her chopsticks and only picked up the tea that the maids had served.
"Oh? I don't know whose house? Yan Hou said with a smile, "Our daughter naturally has to be matched with the best man in the world." ”
The eldest princess's gaze slowly drifted to Fu Yunhuang, and said slowly, "Looking at Shi Ran, he is an extremely outstanding person, and it is also her blessing for our daughter to marry him." ”
As soon as her words came out, the faces of the people at the dinner table suddenly changed.
Fu Yunhuang's face suddenly turned as white as paper, and the chopsticks in his hand trembled, and he almost fell to the ground.
And Lian Zhi'er was eating mutton, choking in her throat all of a sudden, and suddenly coughed unstoppably, she desperately wanted to endure it, but the more she coughed, the worse it became.
At this moment, I saw Ruan Lu slowly handing over a cup of tea, and there was already a look of displeasure in his dark eyes, "Drink it." ”
Lian Zhi'er quickly took it and poured it into his throat, and the violent coughing sound stopped.
But everyone didn't pay attention to her, after all, except for Ruan Lu and Fu Yunhuang, no one knew about the ties and entanglements between her and Shi Ran.
Everyone only looked at Fu Yunhuang, but saw that she quickly regained her calm, "Presumably my sister will be happy in the future and be able to marry Ruyi Langjun." ”
The eldest princess nodded with satisfaction, but her eyes were more calculating.
Lian Zhi'er understands no matter how stupid she is, the eldest princess really made a good calculation, dismantling Fu Yunhuang and Shi Ran, and giving her sons and daughters one by one, she really relies on her identity and does whatever she wants.
And at this moment, Ruan Lu slowly spoke, "You can't marry Huan'er to him, never." ”
Seeing his opposition, the eldest princess said, "You are an official in the same dynasty as him, and you know his character, so why are you dissatisfied?" ”
Ruan Lu said coldly, "He is not worthy." ”
