Chapter 279: Zeng Mingxia

Eunuch Tang waved his hand and took the little eunuchs away, walking crisply and neatly.

"Sure enough, it's the princess's subordinates, and they know how to be careful." Shen Xiu said in admiration.

Whether it is to forcibly search the house while Su Huaiyu is not there, or to leave in the end, it is a very wise choice.

There is a degree of advance and retreat, thoughtful and thoughtful, and Princess Cheng has a way of employing people.

"Being a chief eunuch in Jiale Hall for twenty years is naturally not an ordinary person." Su Huaiyu said with a smile, looked at Shen Xiu and said, "You are also powerful, you can persuade him to retreat." ”

Shen Xiu smiled bitterly: "To tell the truth, Aunt Luo gave birth to a son, and the princess can't take care of it." ”

The highlight is the position of the prince, as long as Han Xiao can be driven out of the Yanwang Mansion, she, a pregnant side concubine, doesn't care what she gives birth to.

This one is not even a pre-opening play, so why should she waste her energy.

"Yes." Su Huaiyu said, and couldn't help sighing, "I'm going to start getting busy, I still have something to do, go first, please." ”

With that, Su Huaiyu turned around and left.

Just before she walked out of the door, I saw Manager Wang hurrying over with Eunuch Hu.

"I just came here at this time, and the daylilies are cold." Su Huaiyu said, beckoning to Eunuch Hu, "Let's go, it's over." ”

Chief Manager Wang and Eunuch Hu were both stunned, especially Chief Manager Wang, who was surprised: "It's over? What's the end? ”

Eunuch Tang was furious, things couldn't be good.

"Heh~~" Su Huaiyu chuckled, beckoned to Eunuch Hu, and said, "Let's go." ”

Although Eunuch Hu didn't know the cause and effect, Su Huaiyu told him to leave, so he saluted Shen Xiu and said, "The slave retires." ”

The two left, and Manager Wang was still a little inexplicable, so Shen Xiu said: "The protector is meritorious, and everyone in the courtyard will be rewarded with two taels of silver each." Mr. Wang, you come to distribute the placement. Yin'er, help me into the house. ”

"Yes." Mr. Wang hurriedly responded.

Yin'er stepped forward to help Shen Xiu, and the master and servant entered the house.

"Side concubine, let's rest, it's really hard today." Yin'er said, helped Shen Xiu to sit down on the Luohan bed, and brought a big pillow for Shen Xiu to lean on.

Although Shen Xiu didn't show it today, he was definitely tired.

"Alas, it's not going to happen." Shen Xiu said.

She also wants to have a good baby, but where can she help.

One thing after another, always disturbing her peace.

Yin'er's face was full of worry, and said, "I didn't expect Aunt Luo to really give birth to a son......

"yes." Shen Xiu sighed softly, "This can be regarded as providence." ”

"The prince ......" Yin'er became more and more worried.

She doesn't understand royal affairs, but if the people pass the inheritance, and after the succession, they will give birth to their own children, and they will let the step-son return to the sect.

With his own son on his side, how can he give his family property to outsiders.

Aunt Luo was born, but it is the biological son of King Yan, and he has a more natural inheritance right than Han Xiao, a step-son.

"Whether it is the prince of Yanwangfu, or the king of Yongshou County, marry a chicken with a chicken, marry a dog with a dog." Shen Xiu said softly, "If it's just the concubine of the county king, it's not good." ”

The Yongshou County Mansion is not as big as the Yan Wangfu, and the Yongshou County King does not have the power of the Yan King.

But the idle clan, not in power and without doing anything, is happy to be at ease all his life.

"Concubine ......" was full of surprise when she heard it.

Shen Xiu waved his hand and said, "I'm also confused, I actually said this." Go pour tea, I'll moisten my throat. ”

A life of leisure also means that nothing can be accomplished, she can live such a life, but Han Xiao definitely can't live it.

Such a man, let him have nothing to do, it is better to kill him.

"Yes." Yin'er turned to pour tea.

Chief Wang calmed down the people in the courtyard and turned around and went into the inner room.

From the mother-in-law's mouth, he already knew what had happened. I didn't expect him to leave this meeting, so many things would happen, I was really afraid.

"Concubine Fang, the girls and mother-in-law outside have been settled." Mr. Wang said, "I have a few more words of appeasement, and now I have gone on an errand." ”

"Hmm." Shen Xiu nodded and asked, "What about the girl named Ming Xia?" ”

Mr. Wang: "Go back to the backyard." ”

"She didn't say anything?" Shen Xiu asked.

Manager Wang shook his head and said, "Thank you with the others, and then go back to the backyard." ”

It's also strange to say, Shen Xiu clearly said that she should follow Yin'er, that is, she was promoted to the house to wait.

It stands to reason that at this time, you should take the initiative to come over, so as not to forget the master.

This Ming Xia was an exception, and after thanking everyone for their kindness, he went back to the backyard, without any intention of entering the house to wait.

"Find out where she came from." Shen Xiu said, "Don't miss a little." ”

If Eunuch Tang's reaction was reasonable, then Ming Xia's reaction was unexpected.

A stupid-looking girl, her quick reaction made her look sideways.

Although Yin'er and Mr. Wang are very reliable, Yu Yongzhao is not there, and there is always a clever person by her side.

If Ming Xia's identity is fine, she really wants to be by her side, she can save some worry.

"Yes." Mr. Wang responded.

Shen Xiu asked again: "What about the prince, is he in the mansion?" ”

Manager Wang shook his head and said, "The prince has gone to the school, and the slave has sent someone to report the news." I heard the little eunuch in front of me say that there were pirates in Kaiyang, and there were many troubles. ”

"Pirates?" Shen Xiu was slightly stunned.

Kaiyang is the base camp of HSBC Shipping, and I don't know how Shen Yue is.

Mr. Wang: "I haven't made trouble before, but suddenly I made a fuss." The prince was extremely busy, and he deliberately ordered the generals, so he couldn't get enough to send troops. ”

There are guards in the Yanwang Mansion, which can be regarded as an army. But the world has always been peaceful, and suddenly to fight pirates always feels a bit like a dream.

"The prince is hard." Shen Xiu couldn't help but say.

Internal and external troubles are just the current situation, if Han Xiao does not solve the affairs in the house, I am afraid that there will be no chance to solve the external troubles.

"yes." Mr. Wang said, but he couldn't help but say, "But it's always the things in the house that are more important." ”

Shen Xiu glanced at him, but waved his hand and said, "I'm tired, I want to rest for a while." ”

"The minions are gone." Mr. Wang said.

Yin'er took the little girl forward to wait for Shen Xiu to take a lunch break, and Shen Xiu lay on the bed, although she was tired but didn't feel much sleep.

From the day she entered the palace, Princess Cheng was like a sharp blade, hanging above her head all the time.

Now that she finally holds her own son in her hands, she has a hunch that the dispute between Princess Cheng and Han Xiao will also come to an end.

"Sound ......"

Shen Xiu lay down for a while and called out loudly.

Yin'er was guarding by the bed, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "What do you have to say about the side concubine?" ”

"Hasn't the prince come back yet?" Shen Xiu asked.

Yin'er shook her head and said, "Chief Manager Wang sent someone to wait at the front door, if there is news, it will come immediately, so the side concubine can rest assured." ”

Shen Xiu sighed and said, "I haven't come back at this time, I'm afraid that something is involved." ”

But what could be more important than the things in the house?

Unless it's ......

"Aunt Luo's son has just been born, I don't know if I can raise it, why should the side concubine worry too much." Yin'er couldn't help but persuade.

Shen Xiu said: "Lie down for a while, a little spirit, help me up." Let the kitchen prepare, I'm a little hungry. ”

Yin'er instructed the little girl to go to the kitchen to deliver food, while waiting for Shen Xiu to get up.

Just after cleaning up, Chief Manager Wang came in and said, "Concubine Fang, the county lord of Anhua has suddenly left the palace." ”

Just after getting the news just now, the lord of Anhua went to Qingyun Temple in the name of praying for the blessing of King Yan.

Leave a message that she will return home when King Yan recovers.

Based on King Yan's physical condition, the subtext is that she will come back on the day of King Yan's funeral.

"Huh?" Shen Xiu was a little surprised.

The lord of Anhua is the daughter of Cheng Wangfu, although she is not innocent with Guo Changshi, but Aunt Luo's birth of a child is always a happy event for her.

At this time, she chose to move into Qingyun Temple, which was not intended to be involved in the palace.

When Princess Cheng was most proud, the county lord Anhua left, and there must be a gap between mother and daughter.

The old slave also felt strange and went out of his way to ask. The Lord of Anwar has left. Manager Wang said.

Because he was in a hurry, the county lord of Anwar didn't pack up much.

Shen Xiu said: "The filial piety of the lord of Anhua is also rare. Now there are a lot of things in the house, so let's care about the things in front of you. ”

Forget it, why should she worry about other people's mother and daughter.

Manager Wang understood and said, "There is another thing, the side concubine asked the old slave to investigate Ming Xia's life experience, which is really unexpected." ”

"Huh?" Shen Xiu asked, "How unexpected?" ”

Mr. Wang: "Ming Xia's surname is Zeng, he was born in the Zeng family of Qingyang, and his father is Tanhua, and now he is an official in the capital, and he is a member of the three products." ”

"Huh??" Shen Xiu was surprised, "Then why did she ......?"

It's not strange that the daughter of the fallen daughter entered the house as a slave, but the father is still a member of the third grade, how can the daughter be a slave.

"Let's talk about this in detail, it starts from 20 years ago." Mr. Wang said slowly.

The Zeng family is a famous family in Qingyang, with many clansmen and many family properties. Zeng Mingxia's father, Zeng Zeqiu, is the eldest son of the long house, but he is a concubine.

The eldest son is older than the eldest son, and has always been regarded as the root of the trouble. Er Zeng Zeqiu is exceptionally good, born beautiful, known as a prodigy since he was a child, he was admitted to Xiucai at the age of ten, and he was a jinshi at the age of eighteen, and his ranking was quite high.

With such an excellent eldest son, where will the Zeng family care about the difference between the concubines. The Zeng family was treated very preferentially, and the sister-in-law was crowded with nowhere to stand.

The Zeng family had a good family affair, but it was a famous lady, but Zeng Zeqiu was unwilling. When he returned to his parents' home with his biological mother, he fell in love with Qian, the daughter of the village teacher, at first sight and wanted to marry her.

How could the Zeng family be willing, his father persuaded him for a long time, but he finally couldn't stand him and insisted on marrying.

In the end, Zeng Zeqiu married his beloved woman as he wished, and the famous Jinshi married a poor woman as his wife, which was very sensational in Qingyang City at that time.

Talented and beautiful women, especially those who do not match the family, have moved many civilian women in Qingyang City.

The first few years were very good, the husband and wife were loving, and gave birth to two sons and a daughter, but after the youngest son was born, something happened.

Qian had an affair with his cousin and was caught raping him on the spot.

Zeng Zeqiu was hit hard and couldn't afford to get sick. The Zeng family clan could not tolerate such a daughter-in-law, so they abandoned the Qian family, and removed all three children from the clan and drove them out of the Zeng family together.

The reason is also ready-made, the Qian family steals people, and cannot guarantee the blood of the children. It is possible that the son born of a thief cannot stay in the Zeng family.

Although the Qian family shouted that he was wronged, the evidence was ironclad and he was powerless to overturn the case.

Later, after Zeng Zeqiu recovered from his illness, he entered Beijing, married a famous lady, and had a prosperous official fortune all the way.

As for the Qian family, she had a reputation for stealing people, and although her mother's family took her in, she lived a hard life and died soon after. The son was young and did not survive, and the daughter was sold into slavery in the county king's mansion, but survived.

"I see." Shen Xiu listened, "Call her in." ”
