Chapter Eighty-Three: Plotting (I)
After Cui Ming finished explaining to the people in the garden, she couldn't let go and thought about going out to have a look.
At the end of the day, the eldest lady went to the palace, and the Hou Ye and the second master did not come back.
Cui Ming returned to Huaxi, left Chunying to serve Huaxi in the garden, and secretly went out to inquire about the movements of each room.
When it was time for dinner, Mu Jizhong, Mu Jixiao, and the eldest lady all came back one after another. As soon as the three of them came back, they all went to the Lotus Fragrance Temple, and only after half an hour did they go back to their rooms. The maids gathered near the Lotus Courtyard were also gone.
Huaxi stayed in the incense room grinding spices, taking the opportunity to let herself think about something quietly. When she heard Chunying say that Cui Ming was back, she came out of the incense room.
"I'm back." Huaxi came back to the house, changed out of the clothes he wore when he was working, moved to the copper basin to beat the pancreas, and cleaned his hands with clean water.
Cui Ming took the cloth towel from Chunying's hand and handed it to Huaxi, "When I went down to court this morning, the emperor left a message from King Ping. Hou Ye went to the Pingwang Mansion after returning from the next dynasty, and when he came back, he looked good, and talked to the old lady for a while, and the eldest lady also came back. When Hou Ye and the others left, all the people who were locked up were released, only Yurui was beaten, and later dragged back to Langqinxuan, I heard that the five girls came forward to protect it. The slave maid listened to the tea fragrance and said that the palace and the palace of King Ping had agreed, and King Ping carried people into the palace after his wedding. ”
Huaxi dried her wet hands and gave the cloth towel to Chunying, who took the basin and withdrew.
Huaxi sat on the couch, pinched her stiff fingers, and asked, "What about the Qi family?" Didn't send anyone to the house? ”
Cui Ming replied, "The second master went." The second master went to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion first, and then went to the Qi family. There is an apology and apology, but I don't know what the second master has promised the Qi family. Although the Qi family was dissatisfied, they finally agreed. ”
Huaxi nodded, "Carrying people in after the big wedding can only be regarded as concubines at most." If the Qi family and Qi Sanniang didn't even have this amount of stomach, how could they be imperial concubines. ”
"The five girls can be considered to be able to enter the palace, but they ......"
Cui Ming remembered the words that others were talking about, and she became more and more disdainful of the five girls who seemed to be weak. At this time, she knew that the matter had passed, and she let go of her worries, and she had no scruples, so she told Huaxi her thoughts in front of her.
"The slave can't see through the five girls. The soft and weak, the heart and eyes are so many. After all kinds of calculations, in the end it is not nameless and scoreless, and in the end it can only be bullied. The slave maid said, with the background of the five girls, how can she marry an official eunuch or a wealthy family as a grandmother, why do you have to go to the palace to make up. Isn't it better to live by yourself than in those royal palaces? ”
Most of the time, Huaxi because Cui Ming is the old lady's person, some things will be specifically pointed out to her, and she will show her attitude to the old lady through her, so as to reassure others. Huaxi knows that Cuiming people are more straightforward than Hongliu, not as selfish as Hongliu, and has a strict mouth, even if she doesn't say anything about people, so she is still honest in front of her. But Cui Ming did not shy away from Huaxi as she did today, and it was rare for Huaxi to express her dissatisfaction.
Huaxi looked at Cui Ming twice, and saw that she looked incomprehensible, not as if she was testing herself, and smiled faintly, "Everyone has their own ideas, and everyone has their own way." Some people don't seek wealth and wealth, but only want to live in peace, and naturally some people are dedicated to the pursuit of glory and worry-free food and clothing. You and Hongliu are both from the old lady's house, how much do you and her thoughts have in common? Everyone has fame and fortune, it just depends on what you think. ”
Speaking of the red willow, Cui Ming paused slightly and sighed silently.
Fuliuju.
The maids were all driven out of the door by Yun Lin, and there was a crackling sound in the house, which made people tremble when they heard it.
"It's a pity that the porcelain from those official kilns is starting to make trouble again...... It's only been a few days since I put it on, and I can't keep it again......"
"Be quiet, if others hear it carefully, and when it reaches the girl's ears, you will have to be beaten again."
Yuzi, the newly changed big girl in Yunlin's room, came in from outside the door, and heard the two little maids in the corner muttering quietly and shouting: "Don't serve in the girl's room, what is the pestle doing here?" ”
One of his maids saw that Yuzi was back, and hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Ahhh The girl lost her temper in the house, smashed her dinner, and drove all the people out of the house. No one will be allowed in. ”
Yuzi was the maid who accompanied Yun Lin to the poetry meeting yesterday, and spent the night in fear in the firewood room, and was just released. Unexpectedly, as soon as she came back, before she could take a breath of anger, she met Yun Lin losing her temper, and she couldn't help but scold, this ancestor must have lost his temper because of the matter of the fifth girl. If you keep making trouble endlessly, you won't be able to please yourself
Yuzi asked, "Can you send someone to tell the eldest lady?" ”
The maid was stunned for a moment, and then she realized that she should go to find Mrs., and hurriedly shook her head, "No, I'll go now"
"Forget it, stay here and watch the girl, don't let the girl go to the next yard. I'll go back as soon as I go. ”
Yuzi didn't care about tidying up, so she turned around and went out to Jingfuyuan to find the eldest lady.
When the eldest lady Yin rushed over, there was no movement in the house, and the two mothers called "girl" outside the door, but no one opened the door.
Yin called twice, but no one answered, so he called two strong mothers-in-law and shouted, "Go, knock the door open for me"
The two wives bumped twice, and suddenly the door squeaked open, Yun Lin glanced out of the door with red eyes, and went into the house again.
Yin swept away everyone and stepped into the door by himself.
The room was in shambles, with porcelain shards, rouge boxes scattered all over the place, and chairs staggering......
"You really don't have anything left in this house, and you smashed it clean for me?" Yin glanced at the house, frowned and reprimanded Yun Lin, "What kind of fuss has it become, let the Yang mother and daughter's slut and the people in the third room see the joke"
Yun Lin lay on the bed and hid in the futon and sobbed, when she heard Yin lecture her, she lifted the quilt and looked at Yin, crying: "I don't make people laugh at much?" It's too late now...... Woo, the face has long been lost, what do I still care about all these Rausch decorations? ”
Yin Shi stepped on the corner and sat down in front of Yun Lin's bed, touched her head, and said with hatred: "How did I give birth to such a stupid girl as you, and the little hooves of the fifth child are bent on marrying into the Pingwang Mansion, isn't it just that I want to be able to win the emperor's favor one day, take what you want, and press you, so that her mother and brother can straighten their waists and be people in the Mu family." Who knew that she would use that kind of bad trick, and she was caught by Qi Sanniang. In the end, she is just a concubine, she has fallen out of favor before entering the palace, and offended the future princess, what do you think she will do? Aunt Yang's fox charm has been scolded by Hou Ye, and the days after this ...... Hmph, if Master Hou ignores her, she will feel better"
Yin's eyes flashed, and a sneer hung on the corner of his mouth.
Yun Lin sobbed and choked up: "But, but she entered the Pingwang Mansion, I, I don't have no chance...... At the beginning, it was also your mother that you said that King Ping was better than King Chengjun, so I changed my mind...... Now that it's like this, where can I still marry into the royal ...... Woohoo......"
"If you can't get married, you won't marry. The emperor is not a group of wives and concubines, and he can't be a concubine, so it's better to marry into a noble family. You are the concubine of the Marquis of Zhenyuan, with your appearance, are you afraid that you will not be able to promise a good family? ”
Yun Lin heard Yin say this, she felt aggrieved and cried even more fiercely, "Don't why Yun Xin, that slut, can marry the Three Emperors, but I can only marry Xungui?" At the beginning, you flattered Concubine Xian Niangniang and wanted me to marry the Three Emperors, which made me have a thought, and later Concubine Xian Niangniang also agreed. This will make me marry someone else, woo...... Looking at the capital, except for King Chengjun and Ouyang Shi, which noble brother can compare to the Three Emperors? Chengjun Wang Ke's wife, there are two noble concubines at home; Ouyang Shi is a widower, and he is cold, so it is best to ...... the Three Emperors"
The Yin family naturally regretted it, but the matter had come to this point, and it was useless to say this. If Yunlin is allowed to make trouble, the old lady and the Hou Ye will blame themselves.
Yin Shi slowed down his voice and persuaded her, but Yun Lin still complained about her.
Seeing that Yun Lin was unreasonable, Yin Shi was annoyed, and shouted: "The five girls are going to enter King Ping's mansion, which sounds good, but in the end, King Ping and Qi Sanniang have pimples in their hearts, and the old lady and the marquis in the mansion don't want to see her...... At this time, you are still coaxing, making trouble like this, and finally angering the old lady and your father, don't expect them to spoil you in the future? Maybe you just pointed to someone who sent you away, and when the time comes, I ask you when you cry, do you want the five girls to crush you forever? ”
Yun Lin suddenly stopped crying, looked at Yin Shi blankly, and shook her head vigorously for a while, "Don't, I don't want it"
Yin nodded, "If you understand, you are your mother's daughter, and if your mother doesn't think about you, who will she think about." You can't marry a member of the royal family now. You complain so much, you might as well get up happily and watch the excitement. The daughter of one of her lowly maidservants ended up being nothing more than a nameless concubine...... However, it is still somewhat useful to hang the name of Pingwangfu, plus there is already a concubine in our house, and your uncle is a minister of the heavens, and when the relationship with the He family is decided, after two months, after the ceremony, your father's official position is only high or low, and you are still worried about not marrying a good family at that time? If you can't marry the emperor, it's still okay to marry a prince and a nobleman. ”
Although Yun Lin was unwilling, after listening to what Yin said, she calmed down and thought about it, and felt much better, and the most important thing was that even if she lost, she couldn't let Yun Xin see the joke.
Yun Lin wiped away her tears and said to Yin: "Mother, my daughter is confused for a while, which makes you embarrassed." My daughter won't be like that again."
Yin Shi took a handkerchief and wiped Yun Lin's face, "Well, get up and wash, don't do this in the future, walk around the old lady more tomorrow, please her old man, it's better than anything else"
"Yes" Yun Lin nodded obediently, secretly decided, Mu Yunxin, don't be complacent, let's see
