Chapter 3: A draft into the palace
"Thank you, lady." Tang Anxia held the ground with one hand, and the slave Fang Yan supported her other hand, and then stood up with difficulty.
Hua Yao looked at her, it seemed to be different from the past, and the temperament between her eyebrows and eyes had changed a lot. couldn't help but ask curiously: "Anxia, you have protected your brothers and sisters since you were a child, no matter how big or small your mistakes are, you will take care of them." Why do you testify against your sister today? ”
Because, her stupidity will implicate herself in marrying the prime minister, and it will cause the entire Tang family to be destroyed!
Tang Anxia thought in her heart but couldn't say it, she hid this anger and sighed softly, and said with a look of grievance: "Back to the eldest lady's words, my daughter has been physically and mentally exhausted and bedridden in the past few days, and she has been beaten all over the body. It's a pity that Dai Rou didn't come to see it, and she didn't even say a word of gratitude, her daughter was punished for her, but she didn't get any benefits, and she was sad, so she couldn't help but tell the truth. ”
As he spoke, he took out a handkerchief and wiped the corners of his eyes, and sobbed: "My daughter thinks that for the sake of her brothers and sisters for many years, she has helped everywhere and endured everything. When their daughter suffered, these brothers and sisters stood by and watched, and no one comforted them, which was really chilling! ”
Tang Zhentian looked down at her with a cold face, and said sharply: "What you mean by this, you are in the Tang family...... And I have suffered a lot of grievances, haven't I? ”
Tang Anxia nodded lightly, a little unsteady due to her weak body, and tightly grasped the hand of the slave Fang Yan holding her, with a resolute attitude: "All the things in the past, my daughter is not to blame for the past. Today's matter of the eldest prince is related to his daughter's innocence, and he vows to seek justice to the death. Now it is rumored inside and outside the palace that the second lady of the General's Mansion is devoted to the eldest prince, which is simply nonsense. Even if it's true......"
Tang Anxia tried hard to straighten her body, looked at Hua Yao aggrievedly, and said timidly: "If you really want to marry the eldest prince as a concubine, it should also be the eldest lady's sister Wanning, when will it be the turn of the two daughters of the concubine." ”
A hint of surprise flashed in Hua Yao's eyes, obviously, she never thought that Tang Anxia would say such a general and clear thing.
Tang Zhentian was even more annoyed, and his tone raised a few points: "Shut up!" You're getting more and more talkative! said that your sister was delusional, and pulled your sister out, no matter what the truth is today, you have to go back to the room and think about it for a month, you can't come out without my permission, reflect on your words and deeds! ”
For a month!?
Tang Anxia lowered her eyelids, and after dealing with this matter of the Tang family, she still had to visit Li Junqi. How can you be trapped for a month? You have to find a way to get your father to take back the order.
At this time, Chunzhi came in a hurry with Dai Rou, the second daughter of the Tang family.
Tang Anxia looked at Dai Rou's neat dress, with a golden hairpin inserted in her bun, a little powder, and a fox scarf around her neck to keep warm, so she knew that she was deliberately dressed up.
Eyes moved to Hua Yao, as Tang Anxia expected, the eldest lady's face was a little indifferent, like the cold wind in the middle of the night.
Tang Dairou directly ignored Tang Anxia's existence, and leaned over: "Father, eldest lady, Chunzhi came to pass the word, I heard that the General's Mansion is going to choose a concubine to enter the palace?" My daughter was puzzled, so I came to ask for an understanding. ”
Tang Anxia turned sideways and looked at Dai Rou pretending not to care, which was really ridiculous.
The plan is planned, Tang Anxia cried with a wronged face: "Sister, you know, there are rumors outside that the daughter of the Tang family is devoted to the eldest prince, and this word is getting more and more false, and even the word 'private meeting' has been spread, which has affected the face of the eldest prince!" How could the royal family tolerate such a thing? My father decided to let me marry the eldest prince and enter the palace as a concubine before the matter was too big and the emperor was not angry. When I didn't obey, my father called you to persuade me. ”
Tang Dairou's face was shocked, and although she pretended to be calm, her feet that took two steps back in succession betrayed her emotions.
"You, are you going to enter the palace as a concubine? Married to the Great Prince? Tang Dairou asked incredulously.
Tang Anxia shrugged his shoulders helplessly, hid his face and cried: "Hey, I don't want to marry, and I don't like the eldest prince, why do you want to marry him?" The rumors are all false, and I have no crush on him, but unfortunately no one can prove my innocence. ”
"I can prove it!" Tang Dynasty Rou said confidently.
Everyone present was stunned, including Tang Zhentian, who was watching the excitement, and the eldest lady Hua Yao.
Tang Dairou knew that she had lost her sense of proportion, hurriedly admitted her mistake, and knelt down with a 'poof', with a pair of affectionate eyes full of grievances: "Father, eldest lady, daughter is crying out for her sister." In fact, the person who peeked at the eldest prince that day and admired the eldest prince in his heart was his daughter! It was Sister Anxia who loved her sister and took the blame for her daughter. All the mistakes are the daughter's fault, I implore the father to take back my life, Sister Anxia was innocently wronged, and the daughter is willing to replace her sister and marry the eldest prince to calm down the rumors outside. ”
Tang Anxia looked at his father with a shocked look, so he took a handkerchief and pretended to wipe the tears from the corners of his eyes, and said aggrievedly: "Why should my sister tell the truth, I am your sister, and we are family, so I will be willing to help my brothers and sisters since I was a child." Today's matter of marrying far away from the palace, sister, I will bear it for you, my sister is still young, and she can marry her beloved in the future. ”
"Sister doesn't know, Dai Rou's beloved is the eldest prince."
Tang Dairou knelt and turned her body, facing Tang Anxia, raised her head, and said with a pious face: "For the sake of my little sister's affection, I implore my sister to fulfill it." ”
Tang Anxia looked embarrassed, and turned his face to look at Tang Zhentian's expression, both helpless and proud.
Helpless, just pretending, showing that she didn't know how to refuse Tang Dairou.
Proudness is the real idea, and it finally proves the fact that he was wronged.
The eldest lady Hua Yao finally couldn't help it, raised her willow eyebrows, and said with red lips: "Presumptuous!" Tang Dairou, you are the concubine of the General's Mansion! Although I don't have my mother by my side, I have been taught by the old lady for many years, how can I tell such shameless nonsense!? ”
Tang Dairou was anxious and annoyed, her biggest wish in this life was to marry a big family, be a lady in the main house, not be a concubine like her mother, and she would not be treated even if she died.
So in any case, in order to become the prince's concubine, you have to fight hard and gamble.
"Father, eldest lady, daughter is true today. I have long heard that the eldest prince is handsome and chic, talented, and dignified, and his daughter has been in love for a long time. The daughter is willing to marry the eldest prince and begs her father to fulfill it. ”
