Su Manshuang didn't understand Cangxi's words and asked, "Why?" ”

"The red jade shattered the jade pendant you bounced," Cangxi said.

"Broken?" Su Manshuang questioned, thinking that Cangxi was here, she then put on a virtuous appearance and said, "These are all things outside the body, and if they are broken, they will be broken." The concubine has nothing to blame for Hongyu. ”

When Cangxi heard this, he said sharply to Hongyu: "Why don't you go and thank Concubine Xie for forgiveness?" ”

Hongyu bowed to Su Manshuang and said, "My subordinates thank you for not blaming the concubine." ”

Su Manshuang is not used to seeing red jade bow to others. However, I heard that Cang Xi had ordered that Cang Er and Hongyu could not kneel to anyone in the Xi Palace.

"The red jade girl is polite," Su Manshuang said with a smile.

Cangxi coughed, and then said, "Since Concubine Fang has forgiven Hongyu, let's talk about this reward." ”

Hearing Cangxi say this, Su Manshuang beat a drum in his heart.

"Does the side concubine know that my regent palace has rules, and servants and maids are not allowed to take the master's reward at will?" Cangxi asked.

Cangxi's voice suddenly became serious, which made Su Manshuang very frightened, so he fell to his knees at once. When he saw her kneeling, all the servants and maidservants in the house also knelt down.

Cangxi ignored her, and then said: "In my house, those who have merit will be rewarded, and those who have no merit and no work will be rewarded. Reward those who have failed to do so, punish! ”

When Su Manshuang heard this, she was so frightened that she hurriedly kowtowed to Cangxi and said, "When the concubine comes out, I don't know the rules, please ...... Please also ask the prince for forgiveness. ”

"These words, when the king sent someone to Su Mansion to propose marriage, he asked the matchmaker to explain it together with the family rules of the palace, did the matchmaker not say it or did the side concubine not listen?" Cangxi asked.

Hearing this, Su Manshuang suddenly remembered, but there was something Cangxi said. At that time, the matchmaker sent by Cangxi to Sufu to propose marriage had told her many rules of the Regent's Mansion. It's just that at that time, she was immersed in joy and didn't pay attention to the matchmaker's so-called rules.

"Shuang'er knows that she is wrong, and asks the prince to punish her", as she spoke, Su Manshuang kowtowed to Cangxi.

"Red jade", Cangxi called.

Hongyu replied with a wave of his hand: "The subordinates are here"

"The rules of the house, giving rewards to those who have no merit, what should be the crime?" Cangxi asked.

"Ten strokes of the rod," Ruby said.

Hearing Hongyu say this, Su Manshuang suddenly collapsed on the ground.

Qingyuan walked to Cangxi on his knees and said, "At this time, it was the slave's idea, and I asked the prince to punish the slave and maid and spare the side concubine." ”

Cangxi snorted coldly and said, "The upper beam is not right and the lower beam is crooked." ”

At this moment, Su Manshuang didn't know what to do. This is the day after she married into the Regent's Mansion, she repeatedly hit a wall, how should she survive in the future?

"Reading the side concubine Su is a first offense, punish you to kneel outside the door for two hours to set an example," Cangxi said.

It's not that Cangxi pities the fragrance and cherishes the jade, but tomorrow is the three days to return to the door. If he really injured Su Manshuang, I'm afraid Su You won't be able to explain it.

"Concubine Fang, thank you!" Qing Yuan reminded in a whisper on the side.

She didn't speak, Cangxi couldn't notice her, and as soon as she spoke, she remembered that there was a suckle by Su Manshuang's side who seemed to be a think tank.

"Qingyuan can't persuade the master, and kneel together," Cangxi said.

Qingyuan kowtowed to Cangxi and thanked him.

Looking at Cangxi's distant back, Su Manshuang didn't know what kind of feeling she felt in her heart.

Before getting married, her father once advised her, saying that the daughter-in-law of the royal family was not good, and she would marry if she didn't listen. Now, what Qin Se and Ming didn't feel, but instead beat the first bird with a stick, which taught people a lesson.

After Cangxi left, two people dressed as guards came in, and said angrily: "Concubine Niangniang, please." ”

Su Manshuang didn't even look at them, straightened up, and was helped by Qingyuan to the door.

At this moment, two rows of iron chains have been placed at the door. Each clasp of the chain was as thick as a fist.

Seeing that Su Manshuang had no intention of kneeling, the two guards glanced at each other and said, "Concubine Niangniang, this kneeling will end early, and the subordinates are still waiting to give an account to the prince." ”

These two people were specially found by Cangxi to frustrate Su Manshuang's arrogance and temper. These two people were not very likable among the guards, and they spoke harshly.

Su Manshuang knelt on the chain, and Qingyuan helped her kneel on the chain behind her.

The maidservants came and went, pointing at Qingyuan.

"Why is this concubine kneeling here just two days after marrying into the palace?

"It's not that the concubine wants to please the red jade girl next to the prince and was discovered by the prince!"

"This side of the concubine is really true, Sister Hongyu is only sent by our prince alone, she actually tried to beat Sister Hongyu's idea."

Qingyuan was very uncomfortable listening to these two maids chewing the root of their tongues, she turned her head to look at Su Manshuang's lonely expression, and said to the two people: "Even if the side concubine is wrong, it is not something you can discuss. Don't get out of here! ”

The two maids were unhappy when they saw that Qingyuan was still so arrogant and domineering. But because of her side concubine's marriage, she served the side concubine closely, and these two little maids could only endure it even if they were unhappy. In the end, I had to leave in disgrace.

Fortunately, it's not hard to get through like an hour. After the sun went down, the two guards saw that the hour was almost up, although they let the two men get up.

Qingyuan got up and hurriedly reached out to help Su Manshuang. Su Manshuang knelt for a long time, her knees were numb, and she didn't get up and fell to the ground.

"Side concubine, side concubine ......", Qingyuan called several times before summoning Su Manshuang's soul back.

"I'm fine, let's go back", Su Manshuang got up with Qingyuan's strength after speaking, and the two limped into the house.

The two guards saw Su Manshuang enter the house, so they went to Crouching Tiger Pavilion to report to Cangxi.

"Back to the prince, the side concubine and Qingyuan have been kneeling for two hours and returned to the room", the guard reported.

Cangxi answered, waved his hand and motioned for the two to go down.

After they left, Fu Ci said, "Why do you bother the two of them? Tomorrow will be the third day to return to the door, if you let her limp back, Senior Su must be suspicious. ”

Cangxi put down the scroll in his hand, "These two people see that you are too good in the mansion and want to use gold and silver to buy people's hearts, how can this king let them succeed?" After Cangxi finished speaking, he glanced at Hongyu who was standing next to Fu Ci, "If you are embarrassed, Porcelain should ask Hongyu." ”

Hearing this, Fu Ci looked at Hongyu. Seeing Fu Ci like this, Hongyu scratched her head uncomfortably, "I...... I didn't let Na Qingyuan come to give me a jade pendant. ”

"You didn't ask her to give you a jade pendant, but when you saw this king come out of the room, you deliberately broke it in front of this king", Cangxi ruthlessly exposed the shortcomings of the red jade.

"When did you learn to play this mind?" Fu Ci asked while handling the embroidery work in his hands.

"Oh princess, Hongyu knows her mistake, if they dare to do this to the princess next time, I ...... I ......", Hongyu didn't say a reason for a long time.

Cangxi laughed, "What should you do?" ”

"Naturally, I'm protecting the princess!" Ruby said.

Hongyu's words made the people in the room laugh, but Fu Ci didn't laugh.

"It's good for the red jade girl to be in my heart, but after all, Su Manshuang is the side concubine that Ming Media is marrying, you wait for her to be so humiliated, and when you meet Senior Su tomorrow, it is hard to guarantee that he will not embarrass you", Fu Ci said worriedly.

"She's married to Ming Media, aren't you? Why don't you want to think that she is bent on sharing favor with you and wants to replace you? Cangxi asked.

Hearing this, Cang Er also echoed, "The prince and Hongyu are right, master, you are too soft-hearted." According to me, even if this concubine marries He Yifei, the son of Governor He, to be the lady of the nineteenth room, it is not inappropriate, anyway, she still has the Qingyuan beside her who is used to these means of competing for favor. ”

Seeing that there was a helper, Hongyu was even more bold and said, "That's it! The prince and princess are too kind-hearted! ”

"Alright, don't worry. The king of Ming Japan went back to Su Mansion with her, and Su said that if he wanted to say it, he would ask for justice for her", Cangxi said.

Fu Ci sighed, and suddenly asked as if he remembered something: "How come I didn't know that there were such rules in the Xiwang Mansion?" The master rewarded his subordinates to be punished? ”

"This subordinate can testify that there is such a rule in this palace, but the master doesn't know it", Cang'er replied first.

Fu Ci looked at Cangxi suspiciously, waiting for Cangxi to solve her puzzles.

Cangxi nodded, "There is indeed such a rule." It's just that when you got married, you didn't bring any dowry, and you didn't have anything to reward your subordinates. Besides, you are used to calling Guiyu's maids, and the servants and maids sent to you by this king have also been sent back by you one by one, how can you reward them? ”

Seeing that Fu Ci didn't speak, Cangxi continued: "Most of your jewelry, gold and silver are also given by this king, and you use it to reward your subordinates in the final analysis. ”

"Lord Wang, this is a pretext!" Hongyu said, Cangxi looked at her kindly, Hongyu was a little bolder, and simply said directly: "The prince doesn't want to use these rules and regulations to bind the princess, and he has to find these high-sounding reasons." ”

"You girl!" Cangxi sighed, "Since the red jade has been said, this king will also have a heartfelt word with you." ”

As he spoke, Cangxi held Fu Ci's hand, Fu Ci looked up at him, and was looking at Cangxi with four eyes, "This king doesn't want to use these rules and regulations to bind you, in this palace, you are the rules." ”

After Cangxi said this, Fu Ci's eyes were a little red, the corners of his mouth rose a little, and he nodded in response.

Seeing Fu Ci laughing, Cangxi also raised the corners of his mouth, and said softly: "You, it works better to smile at this king than to cry at this king." ”

Hearing this, Fu Ci couldn't help but smile, revealing a line of white teeth. Xiangluo, Hongyu, Cang'er, Meng Yan, and Meng Jing were also very happy to see these two people loving each other.

"It's not too early, Meng Yan and Meng Jing let the small kitchen bring the food here," Fu Ci said.

Meng Yan and Meng Jing responded and went to the small kitchen.

At the same time, in the Hibiscus Garden, Qingyuan was holding a hot water bottle to warm Su Manshuang's knees.

Since childhood, although Su Manshuang has suffered a lot, it is the first time that she has been humiliated like this. Seeing Su Manshuang shed tears vigorously, Qingyuan's hand became softer, "Concubine Side, just rub these blood stasis away", as she spoke, Qingyuan rubbed her knee for Su Manshuang with her palm.

"Shhh I didn't feel it when I knelt just now, but now I can feel the pain in my knee.

"If the side concubine endures it again, it will be fine for a while," Qingyuan said.

"Okay?" Su Manshuang asked, "I've only been married into the palace for two days, and the prince is going to take me to Liwei, how can I be good in the future?" ”

As she spoke, Su Manshuang's tears rolled down like beans. Qingyuan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and said, "When we go back tomorrow, we will tell the master about this and let the master seek justice for the young lady." ”

Su Manshuang sighed, "This is the rule of the Regent's Palace, and since I am married, I have to abide by it." ”

"But today, it was the red jade that deliberately knocked over the box, and the prince saw the jade pendant," Qingyuan distinguished.

"What about intentional, and what about unintentional? In short, when I return to the door tomorrow, I am not allowed to mention this matter to my father," Su Manshuang ordered.

Qingyuan pouted, "Don't worry, concubine, the slave has written it down." ”

Su Manshuang didn't speak again, and let Qingyuan rub her knees for her. Qingyuan's hands were a little heavy, but Su Manshuang gritted her teeth and kept silent.

This hard life is still to come, if she screams pain at this time, how should she live in the future?

In the early morning of the second day, Su Manshuang got up early in the morning.

She didn't come to Crouching Tiger Pavilion to pester Cangxi as before, but asked Qingyuan to groom her up.

Xu was because he knelt in the chain yesterday, and Su Manshuang's complexion was not very good today. In order to cover her complexion, she specially painted a heavy makeup.

Qingyuan looked at Fu Qingman's actions and asked very distressedly, "Why did the side concubine wronged herself?" ”

Su Manshuang didn't look at her either, took the fat powder and smeared another layer on her face, "I'm married, how can I let my father worry about me?" ”

Qingyuan sighed, "The side concubine is filial, and the master should be relieved to know it." ”

Su Manshuang smiled bitterly. Where is this her filial piety? But yesterday's kneeling made Su Manshuang completely understand that no matter how powerful her mother clan is, she can't help her. Su You's escort to her can be described as extremely luxurious, but how can this be? The husband's family won't look down on him because of this at all! will not treat her better because her mother's family is interested in her husband's family.

When the sun was three poles, Su Manshuang came to the door of Crouching Tiger Pavilion slowly. She originally thought that today was the day to return home on the third day, and Cangxi should more or less give her a face to come to Furong Garden and invite her to return to Su Mansion together. Unexpectedly, it has been this hour, but I haven't seen Cangxi coming.

Su Manshuang stood at the gate of the courtyard of the Crouching Tiger Pavilion and didn't dare to enter, but in the end, Qingyuan said: "Concubine Fang, go in." If you don't go back, the lord should be in a hurry. ”

Su Manshuang nodded, answered, and timidly stepped into the courtyard. After entering the courtyard, I saw two family members guarding the door of the house, and the rest were deserted. Su Manshuang took a breath and asked, "Is the prince inside?" ”

The family saluted Su Manshuang, "If you return to the side concubine, the prince will accompany the princess to see the doctor." ”

"See the doctor? What happened to the princess? Su Manshuang asked.

The family then waved his hand and said, "The princess hurt her foot two days ago and it didn't get better, and the princess was worried, so he accompanied the princess out to see the doctor today." ”

"Nonsense!" Qingyuan scolded, "If you want to see the princess, even if the prince sends someone to invite the best doctor in the city, why should he go to the hospital himself?" ”

"This-", the family couldn't say.

Rao is Su Manshuang is stupid and should know that Cangxi is avoiding her and is unwilling to accompany her back to the door.

"Forget it, let's go back by ourselves," Su Manshuang said.

Hearing Su Manshuang mention the matter of returning to the door, the family Ding hurriedly said: "Side concubine, wait, the prince has something to say to the little one to bring to you." ”

Hearing this, Su Manshuang stopped, turned around and said, "What words?" ”

"The prince said that he will come back as soon as possible to go back to the house with the side concubine, and please wait patiently for the side concubine", the family Ding finished speaking, and bowed.

Su Manshuang nodded and responded, "I know, if the prince comes back, let someone go to Furong Garden to report to me." ”

After the family should leave, Su Manshuang left with Qingyuan.

Along the way, seeing Su Manshuang sullen, Qingyuan said: "The side concubine wants to open some, the prince still has you in his heart." ”

Su Manshuang smiled bitterly, what did Cangxi have in her heart?

"All the prince is worried about is the face of his father and the regent palace", Su Manshuang sighed and said: "If I had known that this was the case today, it would have been better to marry He Yifei." ”

Hearing this, Qingyuan hurriedly said: "Concubine Hugh wants to talk nonsense!" ”

Su Manshuang smiled, she still had the second half of the sentence to finish. He Yifei is not the person on the tip of her heart, even if he marries himself home and quickly neglects him, Su Manshuang will not take it to heart.

The two said as they walked, and after Qingyuan unlocked Su Manshuang all the way, he was relieved when he saw Su Manshuang smiling.

After more than an hour, Cangxi took Fu Porcelain back to the house.

The subordinates hurriedly reported Su Manshuang, and Qingyuan couldn't see the slightest surprise in Su Manshuang's eyes. Or rather, she has been serving Su Manshuang since she was born, Su Manshuang has grown so much, Qingyuan is the first time to see this emotion in her eyes.

"The prince is back, the side concubine should be happy. At least, the prince is still thinking about going back to your house with you", Qingyuan secretly guarded Su Manshuang over and over again.
