Chapter 92: Greetings to Concubine Xian
The pair of people who have washed their faces look clean and ethereal, Shui Dai Lanyun's peach cheeks are beautiful and lovely, self-generated and abundant, and a touch of ink is shallow on the cheeks that are not very clear, only the corners of Shen Mu Shile's mouth are quietly hooked into a smile.
"It's okay, I can't see it. The appearance without makeup is just right, and it will look better if you change into a water green palace dress. β
Shen Mushi's cool lips were like dragonflies dotting water, quietly brushing over the ink marks on his faces.
"Ugly! If the concubine sees it, she will definitely scold us for not being in place! β
Both cheeks puffed out and stared at the gloating man in front of him.
"What do you want to be serious or not, what does the love between husband and wife matter to her? Do you think that the mother concubine was decent in the boudoir with her father when she was young? β
Shen Mushi suddenly put away his smile, and his face turned cold.
Shuangshuang smacked her tongue, and suddenly remembered the rumors of discord between Her Royal Highness and Concubine Xian in the palace, and she didn't believe it at that time.
How can this biological mother and son have an overnight feud? His Highness is just cold and not good at expressing himself, but now seeing that His Highness's attitude is so cold, I am afraid that it is somewhat credible.
Today, Ning Li has already told that after His Royal Highness returns to the palace, he will go to the palace of Concubine Xian Niangniang to ask for peace, and he has been waiting for him for a long time in the morning.
was already a little afraid of Concubine Xian, but now that it was too late, she followed Shen Mushi to Concubine Xian's palace with some uneasiness.
The three of them drank and feasted, and His Royal Highness and Concubine Xian often competed with each other, so far, she was completely sure that His Royal Highness was very alienated from his mother, which made her very embarrassed, and she was sandwiched between the two like pins and needles.
Concubine Xian squinted her eyes and glanced at the shallow ink marks on her faces, and when her sharp eyes turned her head to sweep Shen Xiangmu, she was slightly surprised, but the expression on her face remained unchanged.
She cleared her throat and said: "Recently, the East Palace has been in turmoil, the crown princess should behave uprightly and solemnly, so as not to let those who have a heart fall into the truth, and damage the reputation of the East Palace and the prince." β
"Yes, mother, the son knows that he is wrong, thank you for mentioning it."
Shuangshuang knew that she was in the wrong and hurriedly trembled and pleaded guilty, she didn't dare to defend herself at all, she understood that the rights and wrongs of the East Palace had nothing to do with her, and this time it was indeed His Royal Highness who was too nonsense.
"The mother concubine doesn't need to blame Shuangshuang, it's the son's misconduct that has affected her. What's more, the matter between King Qi and King Yun has been investigated, and it has nothing to do with Shuangshuang in the palace, but the ministers think that the Xiao family is punishable. β
Shen Mushi was a well-known calf protector on the battlefield back then, and he had to protect his own women at this time.
He opened his mouth without saltiness, although his tone did not carry a trace of emotion, but his words were blatantly defending Shuangshuang, and he only made his mother speechless.
Concubine Xian heard in her ears that her fairy-like son did not call her daughter-in-law "princess", but "double" sentence by mouth, which was very intimate, thinking that the two had already returned to the old friendship and no longer had any suspicions.
Thinking that the lowly maid had been completely pulled out of her son's heart, Concubine Xian couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief, and there was a hint of approval in her eyes.
It's just that Concubine Xian is still worried about the impeachment of the prince by the courtiers.
She has been desolate for half of her life, from an unfavored little beauty all the way to the present, how much effort and effort it took to let her son ascend to the throne of the crown prince, but in just seven days, King Qi made a mess, and there was nowhere to fire in her heart.
Concubine Xian stared at Shuangshuang and looked backwards, and felt more and more that her daughter-in-law was very pleasing to the eye.
The villain is handsome and beautiful, with a noble temperament, and he can't see half of the fox charm all over his body.
The East Palace is strictly controlled, and wherever the crown princess is going, she is followed by a group of people, how can she fool around with King Qi?
She could only think that King Qi's words might be a slip of the tongue?
Shuangshuang and Xiaoshuang are extremely similar in name, so it is difficult to ......
After a moment of silence, Concubine Xian leisurely asked Shen Mushi, "Now, what are you going to do?" β
She didn't know what she was going to deal with, but Shen Mushi knew in her heart what answer Concubine Xian wanted to hear from him.
His mother is like this, unfathomable, and there are articles at the exit. In just one sentence, ask the Xiao family, ask Shen Yuanan, and also ask the courtiers and the throne.
"The mother doesn't have to worry about it, the sons have their own plans. In another six months, half a year at most, there will definitely be a turnaround. β
Shen Mushi didn't want to talk more, his face was always cold, and he didn't allow Concubine Xian to interfere at all.
"What about Xiaoshuang?" Concubine Xian asked, her expression extremely harsh.
"Maybe what King Qi said is not drunkenness, if you really want to clarify for the crown princess, then deal with that in the harem, otherwise, there will be times when she will make waves in the future."
Speaking of "making waves", Concubine Xian accentuated her tone, implying murderous intent.
The words of the mother concubine accurately smashed into Shen Mushi's heart, and she was shocked for no reason.
The mother concubine is his biological mother after all, can she not understand her own son?
Besides, the mother concubine has no background and no backer, she can climb to the position of the fourth concubine, and her mind is naturally unmatched, and she has been rolling in the harem for many years, what can she hide from her?
Shuangshuang, who had been listening to them quietly, also heard the meaning of Concubine Xian's words at this time.
Previously, Shen Chuji also reminded her that this matter was absolutely inseparable from Xiaoshuang, and asked her to push the whole matter to Xiaoshuang, but she refused.
Now that the concubine is also speculating like this, is what they said true?
If it was really Xiaoshuang who had an affair with Shen Yuanan, how sad would His Highness be in his heart.......
Thinking too much, when he looked at Shen Mu with uncontrollable eyes, in addition to questions, there was also a trace of distress.
Shen Mushi ignored the gazes of the two, his face was cold, his eyes were lowered, and he slowly picked up a piece of jade butter cake, stuffed it into his mouth and chewed it slowly.
Both of them are worried, and there is still a trace of indescribable feelings in their hearts.
Your Highness, do you still have an old affection for Xiaoshuang......
If Xiaoshuang and Shen Yuanan really had an affair, otherwise, with His Royal Highness's temperament, it would be strange if he didn't kill the two.
However, now His Royal Highness has not expressed the slightest indication that he must be reluctant to kill Xiaoshuang.
Her husband still has affection for her old lover, how should she face it?
Shuangshuang's hearts were both lost and confused, and the dishes on the table tasted like chewing wax, and even a little bitter.
"You don't want to kill her? Okay, let's get pregnant with a baby. β
Concubine Xian looked at Shen Mu with some annoyance.
Her son is good at everything, but he was planted on that cheap maid three times and twice, and even she couldn't do anything about that woman.
Now that such a big thing has happened, there is still that scourge, I really don't know if her son is too affectionate or her methods are not ruthless enough.
Originally, she had been looking at Shen Mushi's shuangshuang, but suddenly heard Concubine Xian pull the words on her, and her cheeks, which were as pure as white jade, were quietly dyed with a light beauty.
Concubine Xian looked at Shuangshuang's uncompetitive appearance, sighed and said: "The mother is more precious than the son, and the son is more precious than the mother, you think about it yourself." Your indulgence of the maid will bring you and the crown princess a lot of trouble. If you really want to protect the crown princess, don't fight with words, no strategy will work, only let her give birth to the emperor and grandson smoothly She will really be peaceful, which will also help your crown prince. β
Concubine Xian glanced at both of them, and saw that she still didn't understand, and the little good feeling that had finally ignited in her heart sank again.
She secretly slandered: Is it young, or is it too naΓ―ve. The favor of the prince is important, but the position can be abolished, only the emperor and grandson are the talisman of the first life, even if they fall out of favor, as long as the emperor and grandson can be protected for a lifetime. Now that the two of them are like glue, if they don't give birth to a child while the iron is hot, is it difficult to wait for the courtiers to play the princess and the princess is not out, and the prince is forced to lead women into the palace one after another and then regret it? It's hopeless to be in the palace for so long, and you can't even understand such a simple truth......
There is a difference, especially at the royal level.
Today, her son can become the crown prince, because Queen Xiao has no children and no concubines, so the princes have the opportunity to fight for the crown prince.
Now that the crown prince has appointed the crown princess, it is reasonable to give birth to the grandson of the prince as soon as possible to stabilize the status of the prince.
Once the crown princess gives birth to a grandson, even if it is a granddaughter, even if Xiaoshuang is favored, her son is only a concubine, and she can't shake the princess in the slightest.
Otherwise, for the virtuous concubine who is crisscrossing the deep palace, the love that she says in her mouth is not love.
The position of the crown prince is also, and the virtuous concubine's heart is as clear as a mirror.
The saint has high expectations for the prince, so he has not paid much attention to some small things about the prince in recent years, and even protects him everywhere.
But is this the practice of love in the Holy One?
I'm afraid that the saint has a lot of calculations.
If the crown prince really indulges in love, he will be exiled to a foreign land within two years.
The prince he wants is not such a fool.
The love of the emperor is like a steel knife, with two edges.
As long as the emperor's wrist is flipped, the edge of the knife is facing upward, and everything above this steel knife is shattered.
The prince walked on the back of this knife, and he didn't know how sharp the cold blade was.
Now King Qi's casual words made the saint suspicious, not only obeying the queen's wishes, but also turning a blind eye to the palace people in the East Palace, and cutting the prince's share for three months.
Isn't all this worth being vigilant against?
Moreover, the saint's impression of Shuangshuang will be somewhat damaged by the matter of King Qi, but how can the emperor care about a mere woman?
If you want to kill or chop, it's just between Danqing and Nai.
The reason why he was silent, and even acquiesced to the submission of evidence by the sixth bureau, was not because King Qi was his first son.
The filth between this uncle and sister-in-law must be suppressed no matter what.
The emperor and the crown prince conspired, so Xiao Pinyan had to die.
And both of them are lucky not to be implicated, because they are so lucky to have the shade of their parents, and next time, they may not have such a good life.
Emperor Chu Wei has always supported the Lu family to compete with the Xiao family, looking at it, more than ten years have passed, Lu Xiang has lived up to the expectations of the emperor and suppressed the Xiao family's henchmen.
