The concubine thought about it and smiled, "That pot of scratching the beauty face is indeed my sister's favorite, but my sister doesn't dare to complain, after all, the emperor was robbed by the king of Yuejun, and they all turned a blind eye, besides, the flower is not my sister's, what is my sister's position to want, to the emperor, and to make the emperor bored, it is better to ask someone to find a pot back, although the beauty face is precious, but more than one pot, but it is the sister, the harem housekeeping is managed by the sister, the imperial garden lost so many rare flowers at once, and it is a big expense, Now that the treasury is tight, the emperor advocates frugality ...... the harem. ”

The concubine stopped here, the queen's face was gloomy, so many rare flowers, not to mention ten thousand taels of silver, not necessarily to find, the dignified garden, less rare flowers in the town, those noble ladies come in, isn't it equivalent to appreciating their own back garden, now the harem is she taking care of, spending this expense, it is bound to reduce the use of each palace, it will definitely cause the dissatisfaction of the concubines, thinking of this, the queen's eyes have sunk three points, originally she said one thing in the harem, full of prestige, Ever since that pig came out of the birthday banquet, she has become a laughing stock in the harem!

As soon as the queen was in a bad mood, her hands tightened, and even her eyes changed when she saw Zhiwan, and asked, "You asked the king of Yuejun for flowers?" ”

Zhiwan shouted in her heart that she was wronged, who told him to send it, it's not good, but she knows that the queen is angry with her, because Ye Guiyue, because of her, has added trouble to her to manage the harem, but in Zhiwan's opinion, this shouldn't be a trouble, will the queen go to the emperor to ask for silver to fill the imperial garden, for sure, and will take the opportunity to ask the emperor to condemn Ye Guiyue, is this an obvious thing, why bother her with a weak woman, Zhiwan shook her head violently.

The Nine Emperor Princes sat there, nibbling on pastries, and urged impatiently, "It's been a long time." I've said everything that needs to be said, can I send her out of the palace? ”

The maid brought the tea up, and the queen took two sips to calm the anger in her heart. Glancing at the silver beads on the small table, the queen said, "There are eunuchs and palace maids who send her out of the palace, and the Nine Emperors are in such a hurry, is there something wrong?" ”

The Nine Emperor Princes patted the pastry foam on her hand, puffed out her cheeks and said, "I brought her in, naturally I led it out, in case she gets lost in the palace, she said that the responsibility lies with me." ”

Know the night. “……。”

Queen," ....... ”

A room full of people looked at Zhiwan, no wonder the Nine Emperor Princes stayed here with the concubine today, not talking or leaving, which made people wonder. Dare to love is waiting to send her out of the palace, you are a concubine of the Hou Mansion, the Nine Emperor Princes sent you here to give you face, you still kicked your nose in the face, and asked the Nine Emperor Princes to send you out?

I want to cry without tears at night, looking at the ceiling, but I don't dare. I had to stare at the carpet and cry silently, little boy, sister, as long as you lead the way here, okay, I didn't ask you to send my sister out, it's a good thing that you have such a consciousness, but it is as if I forced you. Besides, you were still a little father-in-law at that time, and if my sister dared to enslave you at that time, it doesn't mean that she still dares to enslave you now, Zhiwan turned his head and glanced at the Nine Emperor Princes. The Nine Emperors held their little necks high, and they knew the fate of enslaving this prince, right?

Knowing that the night was bared, the queen slapped the table, "Bold, a concubine of the Hou Mansion, she also dares to point fingers at the prince, and also tells the prince to do things, this is the upbringing of the Hou Mansion?" ”

Zhiwan stood there, and before he could speak, he heard the concubine smile and said, "Sister, don't be angry, the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion are bold, it's not the first time we know about this, even the king of Yuejun dares to command, not to mention the Nine Emperors, if the Nine Emperors really don't want to, they won't wait here for a long time, the concubine and the sister of the virtuous concubine came to her, just to ask about the butterfly incense, doesn't Princess Fengyue also want to dance a butterfly dance?" ”

The queen has two sons and a daughter, respectively, the deceased second prince, that is, the prince, and then the four princes and Princess Fengyue, the queen thought of Princess Ankang after dancing the butterfly dance, Princess Fengyue begged her several times, but the lotus platform was sent to the emperor by Princess Liuhua, without the permission of the emperor, she is not good at making decisions without authorization, for fear of angering the emperor, and she has a bad relationship with Princess Liuhua, it is even more difficult to open this mouth, Princess Fengyue wants to dance the butterfly dance, so she instigated Princess Yingyue to go to the emperor, she has a good chance to play, who would have thought, the butterfly fragrance is gone.

The queen picked up the silver beads again, and the concubine talked about exchanging incense for incense, the queen listened to the bottom of her eyes, she used the incense for decades, in addition to the ambergris used by the emperor, there seems to be no incense compared to this, rather than letting the royal incense shop trample the fragrant wood, it is better to change the incense, the queen glanced at the concubine, the smile on the face of the concubine was even stronger, and the queen agreed.

Concubine Xian looked at Zhiwan with a smile, "I wonder if the fourth girl knows how to change this incense?" ”

Of course she knew, the rules were set by her, Zhiwan scratched her forehead, as if she couldn't remember, and after a while, she suddenly realized, "I remembered, musk, sandalwood, dipterocarp, ......." ”

Zhishu reported the names of ten precious incense trees, and Concubine Xian nodded when she heard it, although it was precious, there should be a lot of Imperial Incense Fang, "How to exchange?" ”

"A pound for a tael."

“……。”

Sandalwood is a hundred-year-old tree, known as green gold, musk is ten times more than gold, dipterocarp is even more precious, such a precious thing, even with a pound to describe, this is the stone on the ground, the weeds and wood on the mountain? Also exchange a pound for a tael!

The concubine glanced at Zhiwan, and her eyes were a little annoyed, "Isn't it too big for a lion?" ”

Zhiwan chuckled, pointed to the silver bead in the queen's hand, and asked, "What does the concubine think is that orchid worth?" ”

The concubine smiled, "The orchid fragrance is elegant and quiet, and crystal clear, this one is not under a hundred taels." ”

Zhiwan nodded, it was already very good to be able to give such a price just from the fragrance and appearance, which showed the eyesight of the concubine, "What if the fragrance can be maintained for two years?" ”

The concubine was stunned, a little unconvinced, so the concubine asked first, "Really?" If it can really be maintained for two years, the value should be more than 1,000 taels. ”

Zhiwan was satisfied, in fact, the price she gave for this incense bead was only two hundred taels, and Concubine Xian said that it was worth one thousand taels, which means that one thousand taels of silver were bought, and five hundred taels of silver were robbed, "But is this incense bead one or two?" ”

Concubine Xian, the concubine is silent, it is strange that there can be one or two of this incense bead, in this way, this transaction can be exchanged, but can she be the lord of the king of Yuejun?

Concubine Xian looked at Zhiwan with a smile, "This palace loves incense." Especially love orchid, smell your orchid today, the palace will go back and lose the orchid sent by the Yuxiangfang, but I can't sleep at night. What should I do? ”

Zhiwan's forehead slipped down a black line, isn't Concubine Xian a little too funny, Lanxiang was thrown by you, it's her business, but she still pretended to look at Concubine Xian in fear, Concubine Xian smiled, "This palace is joking with you, go back to this palace and send someone to send a few catties of fragrant wood to the Hou Mansion, you help beg the king of Yuejun, just bring some incense beads and this palace." Chunlan, take the cloud sideburns and flowers in the palace to the four girls. ”

Take other people's hands short, this time Zhiwan is embarrassed to refuse, in fact, she didn't want to refuse, Concubine Xian said. How could the concubine be embarrassed not to give some, and reward Zhiwan with a jade pendant.

The Nine Emperors really can't stay now, this woman is stupid, a broken hairpin, a broken jade pendant, I want her to help so much, I still want him to ask Brother Yue for help. The Nine Emperors were really suspicious of Ye Guiyue's eyes, and hit Zhiwan and said, "If you help, you can help, don't accept things, Brother Yue gave you so many dowry gifts, and you don't lack these things." If Brother Yue mistakenly thinks that you take people's money and do things with people, the father's small treasury will be half empty, and what will the father give to the concubines? Don't mess around. ”

"......." ”

Concubine Xian, "....... ”

Chaise. “……。”

"That's right, it's still my Nine Emperors who have always been concerned about me when they were children," Suddenly, a sonorous voice was heard, which frightened everyone in the room, and they hurriedly got up and saluted.

The queen looked at Emperor Wenyuan with disgust, "The emperor is here, why don't you let your father-in-law pass it on, and the concubines who are harmed won't have time to greet him." ”

Emperor Wenyuan vainly floated the queen, and walked towards the first seat, and the queens and concubines sat down again, only to hear Emperor Wenyuan smile and say, "I heard that Ankang said that the concubine and concubine Xianfei found the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion to ask about the butterfly incense, and asked me to do a little for her, why did I hear that I took people's money and did things with people?" ”

The concubine hurriedly smiled, "It's nothing, the concubine just rewarded the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion with a golden step and a jade pendant." ”

The queen smiled and said, "Princess Ankang likes to attract butterfly incense, and the concubines also deliberately count butterfly incense as tribute incense, but I don't know who this butterfly incense comes from." ”

The queen said, glancing at Zhiwan, "I don't know if the fourth girl knows?" ”

Zhiwan hurriedly stepped forward, saluted, and only then did he look up, and saw Gonggong Xu standing beside the emperor, looking at her with a stunned face, and popping out two words, "First ......." ”

After saying two words, Gonggong Xu hurriedly closed his mouth, and when he saw Emperor Wenyuan and the Empress looking at him, Gonggong Xu hurriedly pleaded guilty and said, "The slave has lost his words." ”

Zhiwan also reacted, her face was a little stiff, how did she forget Grandpa Xu, when she was in Lizhou, after she smashed Ye Guiyue, the emperor once rewarded her with a big Dongzhu, isn't the person who went to announce the decree Grandpa Xu, Grandpa Xu has seen her, especially the way she is holding the child, she told Grandpa Xu, it is her child!

The queen has never seen Grandpa Xu so panicked, her eyes flashed slightly, and she asked with a smile, "What first, Grandpa Xu has seen four girls before?" ”

There are beads of sweat on Father-in-law Xu's forehead, although he is old, but not to the point of being dizzy with old eyes, the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion look like the first village girl, the emperor still wonders, the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion were mediocre before, not enough for outsiders, how did they fall in love with the county prince, everyone knows that the county prince was scared away by the four girls when he saw the four girls for the first time, but he chased the four girls relentlessly, but he didn't expect the four girls to be the first village girl, what is the character of the king of Yuejun? When I wanted to marry the four girls that day, the sedan chairs on the street were all over the street, obviously looking for someone, and I heard that it was the first village girl who was looking for it, but as a result, I quickly forgot about the first village girl and chased after the four girls.

Xu Gonggong thought of the rumors in Kyoto, it was rumored that the four girls had run away from marriage, had saved a lady, adopted two children, and he also felt that the four girls had a generous heart, but that day in Shangyang Village, when he announced the marriage, he saw her embracing Lin'er, there was no decree, after leaving, I was afraid that something was wrong, so I specially found a peasant couple and asked about it, confirming that the two children were her own children, and felt sorry for her dead husband, it was not easy to take the two children, so she asked the little father-in-law to send Dadongzhu back to her, and as a result, the two children became her adoption?

Gonggong Xu's eyes changed when he saw Zhiwan, such a girl who looked gentle like water, but had a temperament but was irritable and hearty, had a child out of wedlock, and deceived the king of Yuejun, and even deceived the king, just by virtue of her identity as a concubine, she was no longer worthy of the king of Yuejun. What's more, he gave birth to two children, Grandpa Xu didn't dare to expire the emperor, Grandpa Xu was distracted for a while, and he didn't hear the queen's question at all. The queen's brows furrowed, and there was a cold glint in her eyes.

Emperor Wenyuan glanced at Gonggong Xu, and also realized that something was wrong, Gonggong Xu was an old man beside him, and he had never been so rude, today was the only time, could there be something wrong with her, Gonggong Xu knew her so clearly.

Gonggong Xu looked at Emperor Wen Yuan, leaned into Emperor Wen Yuan's ear and whispered a few words, and Emperor Wen Yuan's face suddenly turned pale. "Is this serious?!"

Gonggong Xu hurriedly said, "The slave is frightened and doesn't dare to deceive." ”

Zhiwan stood below, if she wasn't a pure ancient lady, she would have knelt down for fear of being scared at this time. Seeing the faces of Gonggong Xu and Emperor Wen Yuan, Zhiwan also knew that she had two children and couldn't hide it, although the Zhennan Wangfu was surnamed Ye, it was not the Prince's Mansion, but after all, it was a royal family, the princess, how could there be the slightest flaw in the princess's background. Even Ye Guiyue will be spurned and despised, and Zhiwan has the urge to turn around and leave Beijing with his two children.

Emperor Wenyuan threw off the dragon robe and walked away, followed by Gonggong Xu, Emperor Wenyuan's move. stunned everyone, including Zhiwan, Concubine Xian looked at Zhiwan suspiciously, and then looked at the queen, "Okay, what's wrong with the emperor?" ”

The Queen shook her head. "The emperor's thoughts, who can guess thoroughly."

Besides, Emperor Wenyuan came out of the Xia Palace, and his face was gloomy as if he was about to scare the storm, and Gonggong Xu hurriedly persuaded, "The emperor is angry, whether this matter is true or not still needs to be verified." ”

Emperor Wen Yuan said angrily, "What else do you need to verify?" is as bold as the first village girl, has two children, and is also good at medicine, and also makes Yue'er patient! ”

There are all kinds of indications that she is the first village aunt, a lady who secretly marries each other, and wants to be the princess of the county, and even ...... in the future Thinking of this, Emperor Wen Yuan couldn't wait to ask someone to drag Zhiwan down and cut things down.

Gonggong Xu was a little afraid, he had never deceived the emperor about anything, especially such a big event, but today, he felt that he had done something wrong, what a character the prince of the county, would he not know that she had two children, since he knew it, he was willing to marry her, which shows the depth of love, but now that the emperor knows, can the prince of the county still marry the fourth girl?

Gonggong Xu's body was agitated, and he tried to remedy it, "Your Majesty, if the fourth girl is really the first village girl, what are you going to do, even if the prince of the county loves the fourth girl, if she doesn't marry, the king of Zhennan also knows that the fourth girl has been away from marriage for a year, and he will not go uncheck......ed." ”

In fact, before, they all thought that it was fake to know that the late escape was fake, and it was hidden by the Marquis of Dingyuan, after all, a lady really lost it, and really escaped from the marriage, it was a great shame, but I didn't expect it to be true, maybe I still eloped with someone.

Emperor Wenyuan paused, indeed, the king of Zhennan would not know about such a major event as Yue'er marrying the princess of the county, but he was afraid that she was too scheming and concealed it from everyone, wasn't it before, everyone knew that she adopted two children, who would have thought that the child was actually her own, whether the Marquis of Dingyuan knew about it, if he knew...... That's bullying!

Emperor Wenyuan waved his hand, "Send Zhang Jiu to see me." ”

Emperor Wenyuan returned to the imperial study, and before he sat down, Zhang Jiu appeared in the imperial study, and before he had time to salute, he listened to Emperor Wenyuan's instructions, "Quickly go and find out whether the two children of the four girls in the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion are from her." ”

Zhang Jiu was stunned, how could it be, the four girls were unmarried, and they were married to the king of Yuejun, how could they have children, this is too absurd, but the emperor asked him to check, he must have heard some rumors, and was about to receive his order, when the little father-in-law outside came in and said, "Your Majesty, Lord Zhang of the Imperial History asked to see him, saying that he wanted to impeach the crime of bullying the prince in the Yuanhou Mansion." ”

"Biography!" Emperor Wenyuan's voice was cold, which made Gonggong Xu's back tremble, if he really bullied the king, the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion would be over, and whoever could not wear a green hat would wear it badly, and he would wear it on the head of the prince of the county.

Zhang Yushi entered the imperial study, first saluted respectfully, presented the fold, and said, "Your Majesty, the minister got reliable news that the four girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion did not escape after getting on the sedan chair, but she didn't get on the sedan chair at all, and it was the five girls of the Dingyuan Marquis Mansion who married the king of Yuejun that day. ”

"That's all?" Emperor Wenyuan squinted his eyes and looked at Zhang Yushi.

Zhang Yushi was a little stunned, isn't this enough, why do you think that the emperor seems to have known, Zhang Yushi didn't know how to answer for a while, Gonggong Xu stroked his forehead, the big thing now is whether the four girls have a secret marriage with a human pearl fetus, compared with this matter, escaping marriage is a big fart?

But this news is also useful, the fourth girl never thought about marrying the prince of the county at all, could it be that she knew that she was not perfect, and marrying into the Zhennan Wangfu was a catastrophe, so she fled first, Dingyuan Hou knew about it, when this daughter had not been, so after escaping from marriage, she didn't look for it? But why didn't you just announce that you were dead outside, didn't it just break the idea of the prince of the county, and also let the emperor breathe a sigh of relief, and finally hurt herself in prison, and the four girls came back to save their father, and then entangled with the prince of the county, and it became more and more chaotic?

And who is the father of those two children? The fourth girl is married, doesn't he have to show his face?

Emperor Wenyuan threw the song on the dragon case, gave Zhang Jiu a look, Zhang Jiu withdrew, Zhang Yushi stood there stupidly, Emperor Wenyuan was also lazy to take care of him, drink tea to calm down, how to deal with this matter if it is verified to be true, after a while, I remembered and asked, "Where did I learn about the four girls running away from marriage?" ”

"Phase, Xiangwangfu ......."

Zhang Yushi just said a few words, and his forehead was sweating, how could he say it, in case the king of Yue Jun found trouble with the Prime Minister's Mansion, he would be finished.

A touch of coldness flashed in Emperor Wenyuan's eyes, King Xiang himself was difficult to protect, and he still had the heart to find trouble with Yue'er, so he waved his hand and let Zhang Yushi retreat.

Out of the Xia Palace, Zhiwan was still a little dizzy, his back was still cold, and his steps were empty, the Nine Emperor Princes looked at her, "You know Gonggong Xu." ”

It's not a question, it's an affirmative sentence, Gonggong Xu knows what unsightly secrets she has, her father is angry, it's not an ordinary dragon face angry, and he still has forbearance, as if he is scrupling about something, this is something that has never happened before, this woman is really extraordinary, let Brother Yue bow his head for him and admit his mistakes, King Zhennan changed his mind for her, and now even his father is angry and forbearance, why didn't he see that she had something else?

Zhiwan smiled bitterly, Gonggong Xu was pinching her weakness handle, okay, "Don't ask me, if you want to know, just ask you Brother Yue." ”

The Nine Emperors," ....... ”

Brother Yue knows? He also thought that Brother Yue didn't know about this, no wonder his father was angry and didn't dare to be angry, it turned out that he was taking care of Brother Yue.

When I came, Zhiwan had the heart to enjoy the beautiful scenery of the palace, and when I went back, I almost broke my foot, and I heard my father-in-law calling her behind her, and Zhiwan almost didn't fall, but fortunately Bai Shao helped her, Bai Shao didn't know what happened until now, why was the girl scared like this?

What is Zhiwan afraid of, afraid that Emperor Wenyuan will ask someone to send a cup of poisonous wine, in order to take care of the royal face, it is the best choice to give her death directly, but the result is to send a big box on the order of the queen, saying that it is to change the incense, the fire in Zhiwan's heart is rising slowly, she is now unable to protect herself, her life is hanging, how can she have the leisure to make incense for you?!

Speaking of the Xia Palace, the more Concubine Xian thought about it, the more she felt that something was wrong, "I didn't feel wrong, the emperor just saw that the eyes of the four girls in the Yuanhou Mansion were about to kill her, did she do anything angry and resentful?" It stands to reason that she treats King Yuejun more arrogantly, the emperor should be happy, right? ”

The concubine was also full of suspicions, "Although the emperor is angry with King Yuejun, I think the emperor treats King Yuejun really well, isn't it what the four girls did to King Yuejun?" ”

The queen put down the teacup and said lukewarmly, "The emperor is not enough to manage the day, and he has to take care of the king of Yuejun, he is the son of the king of Zhennan, what kind of person is he idle, it is the king of Yuejun who wants to marry the fourth girl, and the king of Zhennan himself agreed, she just pierced the sky, and the emperor wants to kill her, which is more difficult than ascending to the sky!" ”

Concubine Xian agreed, if she was a person who had nothing to do with the King of Zhennan and the King of Yuejun, the emperor would be angry and would have dragged it out to cut it, why bother to endure it, Concubine Xian glanced at the queen, flicked the tea cup in her hand, and said casually, "Since the death of the prince, the storage position has been empty for almost two years, and the court has proposed that the emperor establish a prince as soon as possible, but the emperor has been delayed, and the concubines have heard some rumors that the king of Yuejun is the emperor's eldest prince......." ”
