Chapter 16: The Steward of the Palace
Song Yi's words were like boulders thrown into the water, causing an uproar for a while.
"His Royal Highness the True King? God, how is that possible? ”
"No, how can such a magnificent man as the prince have a leg with an ugly girl? I don't believe it."
"I'm not alive anymore, how can my male god take a fancy to her?"
"No, it must be that she, a shameless woman, stole the silk handkerchief of His Royal Highness the True King"
Song Yi's words completely broke the hearts of thousands of girls in the palace. Although everyone didn't want to believe it, they also knew that the prince's silk handkerchief was a personal item, how could it be obtained by a little girl like "Ugly Girl"? Everyone in the audience seemed to believe Song Yi's words.
However, there are still people with clear minds who don't believe what Song Yi said at all.
Sun Yuqin's eyes were like torches, like a bloodthirsty beast, staring at Song Yi.
Would His Royal Highness the True King like an ugly girl like Song Yi? No, never. As for why Sun Yuqin is so sure? That has to start with the life experience of the real king Zhu Xi.
In fact, the current real king Zhu Xi is the third generation of the old prince Zhu Zijun, and his father is the youngest son Zhu Yuannian, the most beloved son of the old prince.
But nothing is perfect, although Zhu Yuannian is deeply favored by the old prince Zhu Zijun, but because of Zhu Yuannian's mother's background, he has always been regarded as a thorn in the eye and a thorn in the flesh by the old lady Du of the real palace.
For the sake of family harmony and the future of his youngest son Zhu Yuannian, the old prince Zhu Zijun reluctantly arranged him into the barracks. But unexpectedly, God was jealous of talents, and Zhu Yuannian still sacrificed on the battlefield.
To add insult to injury, Zhu Yuannian's wife Chen Qiulan was already pregnant at that time. Poor Chen Qiulan and Zhu Yuannian have been married for less than a year, and when they heard that their husband died in battle, they had a fetal gas.
Fortunately, Chen Qiulan was a mother and gave birth to her son Zhu Xi desperately. But also because of his weak body since he was a child, coupled with the lack of qi and blood in dystocia, after giving birth to Lin'er, he died not long after.
The old prince Zhu Zijun was grateful that Zhu Xi had lost his parents at a young age, and because he was very annoyed that he had personally sent his son to the military camp to lose his son and daughter-in-law, so, despite the opposition of his wife Du, he insisted on taking his grandson Zhu Xi with him to raise him.
Fortunately, although Zhu Xi had a rough background, he was talented and intelligent since he was a child, and he was not only loved by the old prince, but also valued by the emperor, so he was selected as the heir of the palace early.
After the death of the old prince Zhu Zijun, the son Zhu Xi inherited the title naturally. Became the true king of a new generation.
Although in the eyes of everyone, it is natural for the son Zhu Xi to inherit the title.
But Sun Yuqin knew that Zhu Xi had always been a pain in the heart of the old lady Du.
It turned out that the old lady Du was not Zhu Xi's own grandmother, and the real king's own grandmother was just an inferior girl next to the old lady. took advantage of the old lady's pregnancy to secretly climb into the old prince's bed.
One day of grace, she gave birth to a son, that is, the father of the true king.
Therefore, if you want to say that others don't know, Sun Yuqin, as a rare person in the palace who knows the roots, must know that the old lady will never treat the real king Zhu Xi sincerely.
Otherwise, the real king Zhu Xi would have already reached adulthood, and there would be no rumors that the eight characters were too strong, so he never married a wife.
is also because there is no hostess in the palace, so far, the affairs in the palace have always been taken care of by the old lady Du.
The old lady suffered the secret loss of Grandma Zhu Xi in the past, so she hated the subordinates who betrayed the lord the most in her life. Under her tough methods, not to mention the girl who climbs the wall of the male master, even the love between the subordinates is not allowed.
Song Yi didn't know that what she said just now was undoubtedly hitting the old lady's muzzle.
What if the old lady knew that the real king had an affair with the girl in the house? Thinking of this, Sun Yuqin's eyes looked at Song Yi very well.
If it is said that they did something to damage Song Yi's reputation, now it is purely Song Yi who is looking for death by himself, and he has no worries about others.
"Bold, I don't know whether to live or die. What kind of person is the true king, how dare you slander this girl? The prince is the dragon among the people, Wen Tao Wuluo, and is deeply valued by the Lord of Long Live. The future is limitless, which of the ladies in the capital is not proud to marry into the real palace? You girl, since you dare to tarnish Your Highness's reputation here, I think you really don't want to die. Come on, tie this girl up for me and slap her mouth fiercely. Shall she be allowed to give out nonsense here, and to say something inconsequential?"
Sun Yuqin was resolute in handling things, and hurriedly ordered the little servant to go and subdue Song Yi.
How could Song Yi be restrained, and shouted sharply, "I was brought into the palace by the real king, and I have known the prince for a long time, this is something that everyone in the palace knows, is it a lie?" ”
"Slow," a man shouted to stop the riot in the yard.
The chaotic scene stopped instantly, and everyone looked at the men who appeared at the courtyard gate.
"Steward Song, why are you here?" As soon as Sun Yuqin looked at the person, he recognized at a glance that the person was Gao Niancai, the chief housekeeper of the palace. I secretly shouted in my heart that it was not good, but I still welcomed people into the courtyard very respectfully.
The few little guys who were tearing up with Song Yi stopped moving, and Song Yi had time to see who was coming.
Gao Niancai, the great housekeeper of the palace, has dedicated his life to the real palace. Although he is middle-aged, his body and appearance are very tough, his eyes are sharp, and he is very shrewd and capable at first glance.
Gao Niancai has been staring at Song Yi since she came in, and her reaction just now was really surprising. Although the ins and outs of the matter, he is not very clear.
But I was still very surprised that the woman in front of me couldn't be associated with the little girl who always bowed her head and didn't speak in the past.
"What's going on? Why is everyone in the kitchen concentrated here? Steward Sun, what's going on? Didn't I ask you to take a closer look at the people in the kitchen this morning? ”
Gao Nian went straight to the point as soon as he opened his mouth, without a little ambiguity.
