Chapter 133: The Queen Mother's Side Concubine Proposal (I)
When Shan Yu Caitian got the marriage contract formulated by He Lan from Mama Zhu, he glanced at it, and suddenly became angry, "This He Lan is really bold enough, and he actually wants an upright Qing prince to listen to her little girl's life, this is a capital crime."
"Niangniang, you still have to take care of your body, this little thing doesn't need to trouble you," Mama Zhu hurriedly stepped forward to persuade her, her tone was full of care, this contract was secretly given to her by Mama He, and it was naturally handed over to the Queen Mother by the way, after all, in this way, she could also gain more trust from the Queen Mother
"This He Lan really treats the palace as an inn, and he can do whatever he wants, Zhao Qing also treats her too much, and what do you say, only one woman is allowed to her, if there are other women, she will go on strike and not make meals, doesn't she want to starve to death?"
"Niangniang, the old slave has an idea, I don't know whether to say it or not," Mama Zhu thought about it and said
"You say"
"Yes," Mama Zhu saw that Shan Yu Caitian had spoken, so she immediately responded, and then said slowly: "The old slave remembers that there was a girl named Liu Shan next to Niangniang, and she was still saved by Zhao Fuqing back then, just because he said at that time that he didn't need so many girls for a man, so he specially gave it to Niangniang, but I still remember that when Niangniang asked if she wanted to like someone, the old slave remembered that she blurted out that she wanted to be the side concubine of the Qing prince."
Hearing this, Shan Yu Caitian immediately remembered, indeed, Zhao Fuqing, who was just seven or eight years old at the time, saw a six or seven-year-old girl being beaten and bullied by a group of gangsters and hooligans when he was playing outside, so he stepped forward to rescue the little girl, and by the way, he offered her to his side, she did ask the little girl when she was fifteen years old, and the answer was what Mama Zhu said, she was, and that person was none other than Zhao Fuqing, but at that time, Zhao Fuqing had been imprisoned in the cold palace and locked up with his mother and concubine
At that time, Shan Yu Caitian proposed to make her the side concubine of Zhao Changde, but she didn't expect the little girl to blurt out that it was "not the prince of the Qing Dynasty will not marry", and she was so angry that she drove her to the pulp washing room
"Mama, what do you mean by this?" said Shan Yucaitian in surprise
"Since this is the case, why don't you bring up the matter of accepting a side concubine to the prince, besides, He Lan wants to be a concubine, and there are nearly two years to take a side concubine and then marry a concubine, this is not an errand, anyway, He Lan has to keep filial piety again, and the prince is worried about your mother's relationship with Niangniang, it must be ......," Zhu Mama reminded cautiously
"Mother's love" Shan Yu Caitian sneered: "He forgot how to miss the mourning family's mother's affection for He Lan's little slut, he could give the talisman to Sheng'er, and even take revenge, but he forgot it doesn't mean that the mourning family forgot, and even asked He Lan's little slut to write this embarrassing marriage contract, you said he would agree"
"Niangniang, you can find Miss Liu Shan, if she doesn't mind using words to impress the prince again, wouldn't it be even more obvious that you are very good to the prince, this is the real 'deep maternal affection', if you don't really love the princess, how can you think of the side concubine for him," Mama Zhu said slowly
"He was originally not close to the mourning family, how could he be cordial," Shan Yu Caitian didn't believe it
"You can call Prince De together, and then discuss it together, just say that it is specially for them to accept side concubines, and besides, He Xiaofeng is a maid in the palace after all, she will be more virtuous and decent than He Lan, if she agrees to use her affairs to impress He Lan, presumably He Lan will also feel that she will agree to discard the face."
"You don't usually see so many words, why are there so many words today, someone still teaches you to say them," Shan Yu Caitian looked at Mama Zhu in surprise
"Hui Niangniang is not taught, but the old slave thinks that he should teach the Qing prince a lesson," Mama Zhu said slowly
"Well, everything will be done according to your strategy, you go and call Aunt Liu Shan back, and say that the mourning family needs her to take care of it" Shan Yu Caitian thought about it carefully, and felt that this matter could indeed be tried, after all, ordinary people had concubines and concubines for a long time, and Zhao Changde went out because he was angry, so he never accepted the side concubine, and now that the main concubine has decided, the side concubine can also be discussed
"Yes" Mama Zhu heard this, her head suddenly sweated, she was kind and came up with ideas for too good, but the Queen Mother would say, "Do it according to your plan", if it is done, it may be a hero, if it can't be done, then she is a sinner who provokes their mother's relationship, and at that time, the Queen Mother reprimands herself, presumably there is no way to live, it can be seen that she is really walking on a tightrope, and she is in danger
Soon, Miss Liu Shan was brought to the Queen Mother, and after a change of clothes, Yu Caitian asked Liu Shan again, "Do you still want to marry the Qing prince?"
Miss Liu Shan blinked her eyes and nodded, and then said: "The slave knows that she is not worthy of her identity, but since she was rescued by the Qing prince, she has made a vow to marry the Qing prince, whether it is a side concubine or a concubine, or a room."
"The mourning family wants you to be his side concubine, you think it's good," Shan Yu Caitian suddenly asked with a smile
"Niangniang" heard this, Liu Shan couldn't help but be stunned, she remembered that the Queen Mother was not happy to marry Zhao Fuqing, but wanted to arrange for her to marry Zhao Changde, but it was because of her insistence that she was punished into the pulp washing room, why did Niangniang agree to marry Zhao Fuqing and even the side concubine, although it was a side word, but the position was also unattainable
"After all, he is old, and his concubine still has two years of filial piety before he can get married, but in the palace, aren't they all three wives and four concubines, so let you marry Zhao Fuqing as the side concubine first, after his concubine enters the door, you want your sisters to take care of him together," Shan Yu Caitian said as he picked up the marriage contract, folded it casually, and played with it, seemingly carelessly
Liu Shan hesitated and asked slowly, "Niangniang, slave maid, can you ask about that...... Sister Zhengfei is a famous family."
"After all, her father was a playmate of the mourning family, and because of an accident at home, he fled to the mourning family, and the mourning family was pitiful, so she promised her to Qing'er, but she didn't expect her to ......" Speaking of this, Shan Yu Caitian rubbed a few pieces of paper in his hand again, and then threw them on the ground, "So the mourning family has to be angry, she can't make her too happy, after all, you and she are both saved by Qing'er, everything depends on your skills."
"The slave and maid understand, as long as the prince agrees, the slave and maid will definitely obey," Liu Shan said respectfully
"That's good," Shan Yu Caitian nodded, and then ordered: "Invite Prince De and Prince Qing to say that the mourning family has something to say."
"Yes," soon someone went to Zhao Changde and Zhao Fuqing respectively
When people came to the Qing Prince's Mansion, they felt that it was very quiet here, and after asking for a while, they learned that the Qing Prince's house actually went to the imperial dining room, and even said that he wanted to pinch small noodles with the Qing princess, so he hurriedly turned back to the imperial dining room, and on the way back, he happened to meet people who went to the Dewang Mansion, and the two of them said that the two princes were in the imperial dining room
When the two of them came to the imperial dining room, there was Zhao Changde's laughter inside, "Big brother, you see how happy the ninth brother is", "That's the same as when Concubine Lin was there, only now he is really happy," Zhao Sheng Rong said slowly, his tone was also full of comfort, as if he had returned to his childhood, the three of them were playing together, and Concubine Lin sat quietly behind him and looked at them with a smile
"Your Majesty, there are two people outside the imperial dining room, claiming to be the Queen Mother, inviting Prince De and Prince Qing to go, saying that there is something important," at this moment, a voice broke this relatively warm scene
"What kind of nerve is the Queen Mother," He Lan couldn't help muttering, Feng'er hurriedly pulled her, "Sister He, the Queen Mother is Your Majesty's biological mother"
He Lan stuck out her tongue, "I almost forgot for a while, but I believe that the eldest brother is higher than the prime minister, so he won't blame me," and then made a grimace
"You little naughty guy knows how to joke with big brother," Zhao Fuqing smiled and scratched He Lan's nose with his hand
"I have flour on my nose, you actually wipe me, I want to wipe you too" He Lan's voice sounded again, followed by laughter, as if everyone had forgotten the Queen Mother's order for the time being, or was just happy
"I'm going to take a look at those two people, I don't know what the queen mother is going to do," Zhao Shengrong saw Zhao Fuqing and He Lan who were joking, and then said
"Big brother, I'll go see my mother, let's give it to the ninth brother and the ninth brother and sister for the time being, Feng'er, do you want to go with me," Zhao Changde knew that if he didn't go, he was afraid that it would be his future little wife who would suffer, so he asked
"Feng'er won't go, she'll help me make meals," He Lan said
"That's it, I'll go with you, if you don't go, you'll be told," Zhao Fuqing smiled, put down the flour in his hand, and then washed his hands, and then walked to the door, "Big brother, if I can't come back with my fifth brother in two hours, I will trouble my eldest brother to go to Cihe Palace to find us," he said Zhao Changde, and then the two went side by side
"Guess what the two of them are doing," Zhao Sheng Rong asked with a wink
He Lan looked around for a while, and suddenly remembered that she threw the paper outside yesterday, and she didn't see it early this morning, so someone must have told the Queen Mother, and said, "I guess it's for the two princes to take side concubines."
"You...... How can you guess it" Zhaosheng Rong didn't expect He Lan to be able to guess with a word
"I guess it was my marriage contract, someone handed the paper to the Queen Mother, did you say that your mother was too nosy," He Lan said as she picked up a piece of paper, then folded it in half, and then shook the fan like a gentleman
Zhao Sheng Rong was immediately amused by He Lan's appearance, but he didn't expect He Lan to be so relaxed and not afraid at all
"Niangniangde and Qing have arrived," Zhu Mama saw that the two princes were coming, so she whispered
"Xuan them come in," Shan Yu Caitian said slowly, then glanced at Liu Shan, Liu Shan slowly retreated to the lower right side, and picked up a small massage hammer for the Queen Mother, gently hammering her legs
"Erchen to meet the queen mother, the queen mother is safe and blessed," Zhao Changde and Zhao Fuqing came in together and saluted
"It's all free of courtesy, come and sit next to the mourning family," said Yu Caitian with a smile and patted the empty places on both sides of his side
Zhao Fu Qing and Zhao Changde glanced at each other, and then stepped forward, and then sat down in a long order
"Shan'er, go and pour a cup of tea for the two princes," Shan Yu Caitian said
"Yes," Liu Shan slowly stood up and secretly looked at Zhao Fuqing, but Zhao Fuqing didn't look at her at all
"The mourning family was reminded by Mama Zhu to know that Qing'er has liked to save little girls since she was a child, she is the little girl you rescued back then, her name is Liu Shan, at that time, it was the mourning family you sent to the mourning family, she once asked her, but unexpectedly, Shan'er girl said that she fell in love with your mourning family, thinking that since your mother has passed away, the mourning family, as your mother, should also preside over your side concubine for you......"
Hearing this, Zhao Changde and Zhao Fuqing finally understood the Queen Mother's intentions, but the two of them had a very tacit understanding and did not speak, but just listened to what Shan Yu Caitian was saying......
