Chapter 118: Yesterday's Yellow Flower
Sure enough, after lunch, Concubine Rui led Li Ji and Han Meiren to Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu knew that they must have complained to themselves, so she hurriedly asked Ruojin to watch the tea.
Concubine Rui was straightforward and went straight to the point, "Sister Shufei, you are the mistress of our Yanwang Mansion, can you tell me what the situation is?" Since this prince came back from this Nanjing city, we have rarely seen a shadow of him! Concubine Rui took the tea, reclined on the seat, and complained all over her stomach.
This Concubine Rui is also in her thirties, and she gave birth to a son to the prince, just because she has a son, and the mother is more expensive than the son, so she feels a little more weight than the lady next to her when she speaks on weekdays.
"Yes, sister, you said that even this person knows that the prince ran to the new Concubine An when he saw the sky, and I heard that the virtuous residence where Concubine An lives was given a word by King Yan today? Earlier this day I listened to the girls chewing their tongues! It was Li Ji who spoke, her voice was soft and sweet, and she looked the same, this Li Ji was a Goryeo woman, she was born charming and moving, and the prince was also very spoiled by her earlier.
At present, this Yan King is monopolized by Concubine An, and this Li Ji is naturally very jealous.
The other Han beauty was docile, drinking tea silently on the side, without complaining about anything, and it could be seen that she came with Concubine Rui and Li Ji.
Concubine Shu smiled: "What my sisters said is very true, this Concubine An is a little not very sensible when she first arrives!" ”
"Sister, I heard that you went to meet this Concubine An yesterday and gave her a little hardship, but the prince ......" Concubine Rui said here and paused deliberately.
Concubine Shu's face was a little unbearable, it seemed that she slapped Concubine An's maid in Mingyue Pavilion yesterday, and the matter of being scolded by the prince had spread all over the ladies.
Mrs. Han felt that Concubine Rui was talking like this, so she coughed lightly a few times, reminded Concubine Rui, Concubine Rui is also a smart person, and quickly changed the topic: "This prince is really too spoiled by this newcomer, and it is a shame that my sister doesn't care about her, if I had been so angry that I smoked in the seven holes, my sister is really a good belly, worthy of being the heroine in this Yan Wang's mansion, and the prince's right-hand man!" Concubine Rui praised Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu remained silent, for these concubines, the flattery of the lady or the incitement! Concubine Shu always smiled.
"Sisters, this Concubine An is a newcomer, this prince naturally has to pay special attention, didn't the sisters also come from newcomers at the beginning?" Concubine Shu took a sip of tea unhurriedly and did not make any comments of her own.
She has seen a lot of things fanning the flames between the concubines, she will not be instigated by others, yesterday's recklessness has made her hit the muzzle, and she still feels ashamed, she will never act rashly in the future.
"Sister Shufei's words are wrong, we didn't charm the prince like her at the beginning! We have also been to meet this concubine, and I feel that she is a master who does not eat oil and salt, and she doesn't see people in her eyes at all, doesn't she just rely on her younger age and more beautiful? She should still understand the truth! "Concubine Rui is very strange, why does this concubine look like she doesn't care about anything, and she looks high? What's wrong with her, was she scolded by the prince yesterday, was she frightened?
"Yes, Sister Shufei, this Concubine An just doesn't understand reason, she is so charming to the prince, she is really hateful!" Li Ji frowned and agreed.
Concubine Shu said slowly: "How can the prince be a little woman who can live charmingly, my sisters have been in this mansion for many years, our friendship is naturally better than those new ladies over the years, don't be so careless about those people chewing their tongues!" I'm afraid I'll be laughed at if I'm scheming with them! ”
"I'm afraid of people's jokes, don't worry about her" This concubine is really good, since this is the case, then yesterday she went to the Mingyue Pavilion to give Concubine An's personal maid a dismount, why is that? Ruifei thought to herself. Isn't it also angry that this prince spoils Concubine An, lest his position in this Yan Wangfu be threatened? Now she's saying it well.
"Sister, we are just angry in our hearts, we feel that our sister is closer, and we will complain to my sister today!" Han Meiren finally said a word.
This Han beauty is relatively calm and quiet on weekdays, but she is also thoughtful, she likes to observe words and feelings, she has no children and no daughters, but no one dares to bully in this Yanwang Mansion, and she has her own uniqueness.
The three of them came here today, and they counted a lot of Concubine An's nos, but this concubine was not moved, Mrs. Han knew that this concubine had always been smart, she could be the hostess of this Yan Wang's mansion for 19 years, and Yan Wang also respected her on weekdays, she had her own strengths, and her thoughts could not be influenced by others.
Originally, Concubine Rui and Li Ji wanted to come here to complain, wanting Concubine Shu to think of killing the prestige of Concubine An, for this matter, Han Meiren did not advocate it, she also knew that the incident that Concubine Shu had suffered for Concubine An yesterday and was reprimanded by King Yan had just happened, and it was simply whimsical to let her run into a wall again.
But Concubine Rui has Concubine Rui's considerations, she feels that Concubine Shu can't get off the stage at Concubine An, and she will hate Concubine An even more, if they fan the flames for a long time, they will really join forces with them to deal with Concubine An, so that she will not be at peace in this Yanwang Mansion, but I didn't expect this Concubine Shu to not eat this set at all.
It seems that Han Meiren is right!
The three of them saw that Concubine Shu had been grinding their lips for a long time, but Concubine Shu had no reaction, but said that they had to be patient and treat newcomers with a bit of an old man's belly, isn't this shooting themselves in the foot? If this concubine had a belly, would she have to run to Concubine An yesterday as if she was dizzy?
"Oh, by the way, sisters, when the prince just came back from Beiping, he explained that he and Concubine An would hold a wedding ceremony, I looked for someone to take a look at it, and it will be fine after three days! Look at it, what can help, let's hold a decent ceremony for this prince, right? Concubine Shu smiled and asked for their opinion.
Cut! This concubine said that she was fat, she was really gasping, and she actually wanted to prepare a ceremony for the prince and Concubine An, God! Is there any reason for this? Which concubine in this palace has such a courtesy when his wife enters the palace?
The three of them didn't say anything, but they knew in their hearts that this Shufei City Mansion was not ordinarily deep. Who can think about King Yan like this after being denied the stage in front of King Yan in front of his subordinates, and want to give him and his newlyweds Zhang Luo a decent wedding ceremony, I am afraid that only this concubine can do it in the world?
"My sister has always been in charge of this house, and when my sister needs to use it, I will support me, we should go all out, then we won't bother my sister, and my sister will be busy!" Han Meiren hurriedly said that he was going to retire.
Concubine Rui and Li Ji had no choice but to return indignantly.
When Concubine Shu saw the three of them leaving, she smiled to herself, with a smug look on her face.
I'm afraid that there will be no peace in this Yanwang Mansion now! This Concubine An has really become the target of public criticism, right? Then why bother with her? There are a lot of people who can't get along with her?
Out of Xiangrui Residence, in the back garden, Concubine Rui was naturally unhappy in her heart: "Do you think this concubine has water in her brain?" Yesterday, I didn't go to Concubine An to make a big fuss, how did it change a lot today, and I had to show the wedding ceremony for the prince and Concubine An, and the joke was that we had a small belly, and a newcomer was generally careful, cut! What is the rationale for this? "Concubine Rui has always had a straight personality, and she will say whatever she wants.
"Yes, seeing that this Concubine An has already been in the limelight in this Yan Wangfu, this is good, if she and the prince have a make-up wedding, it will really be heavenly!" Of course, Li Ji felt uncomfortable in her heart, and she hated this Concubine An even more.
Han Meiren smiled lightly, looking indifferent.
"Laugh, Han Meiren, can you still laugh? Have you forgotten what is the original purpose of our coming here today? It's good now, I touched a nose of ash! Li Ji complained.
"What did I advise you to come to, saying that you should not come here recklessly to bewitch the concubine, but you just don't listen, how can this concubine be bewitched casually! She's got enough of it here! Han Meiren pointed her finger and signaled that the wisdom of this concubine was not ordinary.
Li Ji pouted, and angrily broke a crape myrtle branch on the side of the garden road: "I don't care, I want to take care of this Concubine An!" ”
"What? Has my sister thought of a way to fix her? Concubine Rui also asked Li Ji with interest.
"Not yet, but I won't let her wedding with the prince go smoothly!" Li Ji sneered.
Han Meiren did not respond, she knew that now Concubine An was a fish bone choked in the throats of the sisters, making no one comfortable, and everyone wanted to pull it out quickly, this is the sorrow of being born as one of the wives of the royal prince, destined to have a husband alone with other women in this life, and also destined to wait for his arrival in an empty room.
This point, in this Yanwang Mansion for more than ten years, Han Meiren has long understood it!
If she is given a choice in the next life, then she will never choose to marry into the royal family, she will definitely choose an ordinary person, and there is an ordinary love that is ordinary but there is absolutely no need to wait silently in the empty room!
Lord Wang, it seems that he hasn't been close to himself for a long time! Is it tens of days? It's still hundreds of days, and even Han Meiren can't count them!
She still remembers that she was only sixteen years old when she entered the palace of King Yan, she was amazing back then, and was given the title of Han Meiren by the prince, thinking that the prince had also spoiled herself, and now more than ten years have passed, and she is already yesterday's yellow flower!
Han Meiren doesn't know why her heart is empty, like the incomparably depressed scenery of late autumn!
