Chapter Twenty-Five: Clever Beauty Tricks 2
Seeing Aunt Youxi's expression, she seemed to have a confident mind. A smile appeared on the corner of Wu Yiding's mouth, and she nodded vigorously, expecting Aunt You Xi to surprise her.
Takeki Nu was scared half to death.
For the harem battle, all kinds of means, Wu Mu Nu, a princess who leaned towards the government and the opposition during the Shang Dynasty and had a prosperous status, has been exposed to it since she was a child, and it is not uncommon to see all kinds of harsh and despicable means for the harem.
In the past, in the palace of the Emperor of Xu, her mother's status was second only to that of Queen Jiang, and she had the protector behind her as a backer. He is very familiar with punishing subordinates, punishing slaves and maids, prison maids, and martial arts girls.
On the winter solstice, Princess Sakura and Mrs. Hua were arrogant and unscrupulously punished her and Wu Yiding, which reminded her that she had performed more in her palace than Princess Sakura. Princess Sakura at this time was the martial arts girl at that time. Therefore, when Mrs. Huagui was angry and poured cold water on her, she quickly knelt down, and slapped her own mouth, and shouted in her mouth, "Niangniang is angry, Niangniang Wan'an, I deserve to die for my crimes" and the like, in order to eliminate the hatred in Qiu Ji's heart.
What Wu Mu Nu never thought was that Princess Sakura, who worked so hard to please on weekdays, also turned her face and didn't recognize people at this time, and was punished along with herself. Of course, Wu Mu Nu also understands a truth better, no matter when and where, power and status are the foundation of a person's survival in the palace.
The kind-hearted and benevolent king came back in time, and the warmest thing was that the last passenger, the red man in front of the prince, he was handsome, kind, and the light in his eyes was so warm, he actually escorted them back to the corner courtyard in person, and told Wu Li and the fathers-in-law to treat the "guests" of the corner courtyard well.
Wu Mu Nu hated Wu Yiding for causing trouble, and she was punished, but she also affected herself.
Wu Mu Nu hates Princess Sakura even more, this thing that turns her face and doesn't recognize people, phew! It's just not as good as a pig and a dog. Although Wu Mu Nu has hatred in her heart, her heart is also full of sweetness. The last son, the close attendant in front of the prince, could it be that the prince sent him to protect himself? He was so kind and warm that he even carried himself into the carriage and covered himself with a soft blanket.
Wu Mu Nu thought about it, the punishment and humiliation she had just received was nothing compared to the warmth that Mo Chuanzi brought her, assuming that she could, if she could get it, she would get the love of the prince, ah! It's all worth it.
Although the martial girl was punished and knelt, she slept soundly, and her spring heart was budding, hugging the thick quilt, and she had a good night's sleep.
Although the two girls knelt and punished in the wind and snow, they were young, and they were the blood of Emperor Xin, the king of Xu, and their physique was not weak, and on the second day, they were no longer in trouble.
Early in the morning, Aunt You Xi was busy in the kitchen, mixing noodles and chopping stuffing, she instructed You Ji and You Xi to start steaming, and after steaming a few baskets of steamed buns, they went to the gate of the courtyard to look.
"Grandpa Huan, Grandpa Huan!" Aunt You Xi recognized the person who came in a hurry, a small temple man about the same age as Wu Yiding, and she called softly.
"Yo, isn't this Aunt Yuxi? What's the good thing? Father-in-law Huan stopped, turned his face sideways, and asked softly.
"Father-in-law, come here." Aunt Youxi's smile was all over her face, she spoke softly, took Father-in-law Huan into the kitchen, and took a bun from the steamer to Father-in-law Huan.
"Father-in-law works hard, let's try the craftsmanship of the slave and maid, see if it suits your appetite?" Aunt Yuxi said softly.
"Yo! It smells so good! Father-in-law Huan took the bun and put it in his mouth. The buns that just came out of the cage are fragrant and soft, although this father-in-law Huan is on an errand in the palace, after all, he is young and greedy, and he boasted after eating three buns in one go.
"Not bad! Auntie, even if you get to the front of the emperor, you don't have to talk about it. Father-in-law Huan boasted again.
"Look at what you say." Aunt You Xi replied while packing seventeen or eighteen in a cloth bag and handed them to Father-in-law Huan.
"Father-in-law, please bring a message to Father-in-law Wu, today the corner courtyard is waiting for him to come to inspect Dongjie, and I have to work hard for you to pass on a message to your master!" Aunt Yuxi said with a smile on her face.
"That's nature, that's nature! Aunt Mo sends. "Father-in-law Huan is young, but he also understands the sophistication of human feelings, and he is naturally willing to do these two pleasing things.
Sure enough, before lunchtime, Wu Li's father-in-law swayed and came to the corner courtyard.
Aunt Youxi, Si Zhao, and Si Xia waited left and right, not to mention a large table full of dishes, the famous Baihua Brew in the capital poured a full cup. The newly steamed buns, the filling is fragrant and abundant, although Wu Li is in charge of the proton courtyards on the fair day, he has never eaten such delicious buns. What's more, Aunt You Xi used to be in the palace of the princess, and she was also a celebrity in front of the princess, not only excellent in martial arts, but also good at understanding people's hearts, and her cooking skills were also first-class. Today, she wants to work hard to please Gonggong Wu, and naturally she will be caught.
"Excellent! Very good! Aunt Youxi's cooking skills can actually go to the queen's side to wait. I think you're also a clever one, alas! Today, however, it has been ...... But don't worry, when it's convenient in a few days, I recommend to the chief eunuch of Ji Du that you go over on an errand, and it's better than here. Wu Li's father-in-law said with two drunkenness with a full burp.
Aunt You Xi heard Wu Li's father-in-law say such a thing, and she made a look, and Si Zhao's subordinates all retreated. Aunt You Xi wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, and said with tears in her eyes: "Seeing that the big festival is approaching, my parents have passed away for a year, and today is a sacrifice, but I am here, alas! Where in the palace did they dare to worship the spirits of the dead? When Aunt Youxi finished speaking, she was already in tears and choked.
"Oh? Today? Father-in-law Wu Li thought for a while and said, "Auntie, don't be sad, there is a gap later this afternoon, you can go out of the city." Wu Li paused for a moment and said to You Xi.
"My father-in-law can be considerate of us, the slave and maid are grateful, it's just that this time out of the city, where do we have a token to leave the palace! Without tokens, even if there is a chance, it is difficult to get out of the palace, alas! After Aunt Yuxi finished speaking, she cried like tears, and became more and more sad.
"This, this is difficult." Wu Li's father-in-law looked at Aunt You Xi, although You Xi was called an aunt, she was only twenty-four or five years old, her skin was round and full, she was in her youth, her body was plump and well-proportioned, her mouth was greasy and sweet, and her appearance was very cute.
Although Wu Li is a father-in-law, he also has a heart of love for beauty and jade, and Aunt You Xi has always been gentle and humble, and knows how to please him, he paced back and forth a few steps, as if he had made up his mind, and said: "In this way, you can take my waist card first, but there is one thing, I must return to the city before the second watch tonight, and this thing must also be returned to me, you know?" ”
Wu Li untied the waist card, pulled Aunt You Xi's hand, put the waist card in her hand, and said with a serious and solemn face.
"Thank you, thank you father-in-law, the slave is grateful." Aunt You Xi burst into tears, and after saying words of thanks, she packed two bags of white and clean buns for Wu Li's father-in-law, brought two pots of wine to him, and sent Wu Li's father-in-law out of the door of the corner courtyard.
Aunt You Xi followed the princess early in the morning and waited in the Ouchi Palace, so she was naturally a first-class clever. The princess practiced martial arts and swordsmanship, and practiced military books diligently, and Yu Xi was familiar with it, and her scheming and strategy were not weak. Getting the waist card from Wu Li's hand today is completely a subtotal.
"Auntie, auntie, this is called a 'beauty trick', isn't it?" Wu Gengying raised his head and said in a milky voice.
Everyone laughed.
Wu Yiding thought in his heart that Aunt You Xi first bribed people to do what she liked, and then observed her words and feelings, took advantage of the situation to express her suffering, shed tears to win sympathy, and then took the waist card. This should be called separately: "Degree Meter", "Bitter Meat Meter", "Beauty Meter", three strategies are used together, and the token is successfully obtained out of the palace.
Wu Yi admired his aunt in his heart, and he secretly knew that in the art of war, some of the strategies were powerful.
Wu Mu Nu also insisted on going outside the city to see Brother Wang, but Aunt You Xi was not easy to refuse. When it was dark, Aunt You Xi took Wu Mu Nu, Wu Yiding, and Wu Gengying, and a group of four people took a carriage out of the palace.
The snow is getting heavier and heavier!
