Chapter 22: Rigidity and Softness
ps night continue to ask for collections, ask for recommendation votes, thank you.
Liu's was behind Ding Rou, her knees were soft and she was going to take it on behalf of her daughter, Ding Rou grabbed Liu's arm and didn't let her kneel, Liu's knew that her daughter Ding Rou wanted to save face, and the most annoying person said that it was a concubine, Miss Li, the concubine of Anyang Bofu, named Ding Rou in front of so many people and said that Ding Rou was a concubine, Liu was worried about Ding Rou on the one hand, and on the other hand, she hated herself, how good it would be for Ding Rou to crawl out of his wife's belly, Liu's inability to give Ding Rou decent self-esteem has always been the most painful place in her heart.
Liu couldn't kneel down because Ding Rou couldn't kneel, so he said humbly: "Miss Li, don't blame Xiao Rou... No, it's Miss Six, she always wanted to apologize to you..." Liu secretly tugged at Ding Rou's sleeve and signaled Ding Rou to hurry up and say some soft words to deal with the past, if she didn't kneel, she wouldn't kneel, but soft words were meant to be said.
"Concubine Dingfu, if Ding Rou kneels down and apologizes to me, I will let you go." Li Manru saw the smiling Ding Rou somehow, they were obviously standing together, she was a young lady from Anyang Bofu, Ding Rou was just an outdated concubine, but Li Manru felt that she was a head shorter than Ding Rou, and her momentum was not enough, "Concubine, concubine." β
Li Manru knew that Ding Rou cared most about the identity of the concubine, but the more she said, the more Ding Rou smiled, not a grudge smile, very warm and uncaring, as if she had the identity of a concubine, it didn't matter, Ding Rou said to the Liu family first: "Mother, you go over there to rest, and we will go back to Zhuangzi after throwing copper coins in a while, I left two fish and made them for you." β
"Lan Xin, help my mother to rest in the gazebo."
"Xiaorou, I'm not going."
The Liu family wanted to face it with Ding Rou, and Ding Rou said with a smile: "Mother, I'm fine, Miss Li is the concubine of Anyang Bofu, how can she be like me?" We're just reminiscing, Miss Li, don't you say? β
Ding Rou spoke very quickly, and a sentence turned several times, Li Manru was obviously looking for fault, but Ding Rou put things together and said, Li Manru couldn't deny it, nodded unwillingly, the Liu family is dispensable, Li Manru wants to let Ding Rou kneel down and admit her mistake, just like she admitted her mistake to Ding Rou at that time, the virtuous concubine in the palace is her aunt, and the Li family is a relative of the emperor, Li Manru can't believe that she can't hold Ding Rou, and she can't let Ding Rou bow her head.
Seeing Ding Rou's resolute expression, Lan Xin whispered in Liu's ear: "Sixth Miss is measured, you have concerns here." Liu Shi left with Lan Xin at this time, but he didn't go to the pavilion to sit down, standing not too far away, Liu Shi has been looking at Ding Rou worriedly, in case something is wrong, she can rush up to protect Ding Rou at any time.
"Miss Li, don't come unharmed."
When the Liu family left, Ding Rou focused all her attention on Li Manru in front of her, but Li Manru said: "Ding Rou, it's useless to talk less, you must kneel down to me today and admit your mistakes." β
"What's wrong with me?" Ding Rou blocked Li Manru's words with a smile, "I know that you are the concubine of Anyang Bofu, and I know that your aunt is the virtuous concubine of the palace, but Miss Li..."
Ding Rou deliberately lengthened her voice, in front of her praised Li Manru's noble background, Li Manru heard Ding Rou, who always looked down on herself, say this, she was happy, Ding Rou softened, Li Manru was very satisfied, unexpectedly Ding Rou changed her words and said, "You have a fate?" Which etiquette of the Great Qin Dynasty makes me bow down to you? β
Li Manru's face was distorted, why didn't she think of it at that time, it was her father who had a title, Li Manru was a lady of the official family, but Ding Rou was also a lady of the official family, although the old lady of the Ding family did not have a title, but she was one of the emperors and emperors today, and was praised by Emperor Gaozu, in the rebellion of the hidden king, the old lady Ding was meritorious, although the Ding family did not have a title, but the emperor respected the old lady Ding very much, and the old lady Ding had the identity of the emperor but refused to enter the cabinet, the emperor trusted him more and more, the old lady Ding presided over several sessions of Enke, and the protΓ©gΓ©s were all over the court and the opposition, The Ding family is noble, does not form a party or engage in personal gain, although there is no title, it is a famous family in the capital.
is also a young lady of the official family, what qualifications does Li Manru have to make Ding Rou kneel? Li Manru hated her teeth so much, so she couldn't find an excuse to punish Ding Rou? Prejudice servant my head, Li Manru said: Ding Rou, you kicked An Yangbo's servant with a stone, shouldn't you make amends? β
"Miss Li, I kicked the stone, but the stone flew to your servant's head by itself, and it was Empress Gaozu who couldn't see it, so she let the stone fall on the bully servant."
"You don't bluff Empress Gaozu."
"It's not a bluff, it's a manifestation, Miss Li needs to be cautious, Empress Gaozu is not something you can criticize."
"You... You..." Of course, Li Manru knew the status of Empress Gaozu, and she was holding back a breath of anger in her heart, obviously she was favored and had a higher status than Ding Rou, but it was not Ding Rou.
"I remember in a trance that the founding emperor once said that the battle bully, the nobles who oppress the good people and the people will take the title and destroy the coupons, the servants of Anyang Mansion are scattered under Luofeng Mountain, and the Anyang Bofu who arsons slaves and murders do not know if they can afford it."
Li Manru's eyes flashed with panic, this kind of thing is not held accountable by the people, if Ding Rou is really more serious, with the Ding family's connections, Anyang Bofu may not be able to deal with it, my aunt is in the limelight, and she has offended some people in **, if it involves my aunt, Anyang Bofu will be ruined.
This is the sorrow of Anyang Bofu, who relies on women to be favored, relatives, incapable relatives have an unstable foundation, wealth and glory are all rewarded by the emperor, the virtuous concubine is born a prince, but it is not a long time, there are many princes who have grown up on the top, no matter how the emperor's turn is not the turn of the little prince, the emperor's favor has advantages and disadvantages for the virtuous concubine, and the benefit of the grace family is that it provokes the jealousy and hatred of the ** woman, and if you are not careful, you will fall out of favor and fall into a place of no return.
Ding Rou saw that Li Manshi was going to come over to round the field, and Ding Rou would obey her wishes and give Li Manshi a chance, but Ding Rou is now a concubine who is not favored in Zhuangzi's life, although she froze Li Manru, but it is difficult to guarantee that she will not hold a grudge, and find an opportunity to teach Ding Rou a lesson, Ding Rong does not have much weight in his hand, and he has no time to defend against Li Manru's revenge, Ding Rou smiled: "Miss Li, we were just a ** battle of will, you are now a noble daughter of the Earl's Court, and I..."
Ding Rou was a little lonely in her eyes, "I can only live a plain life, Miss Li, I really envy you for your fine clothes and food, as the daughter of the Earl's Palace." β
Ding Rou was just soft, Li Manru was stunned by her, and just then saw Ding Rou's aggressive appearance, as if she was going to ruin Anyang Bofu, Li Manru was just a spoiled girl, seeing Ding Rou's soft suit, Li Manru said: "Who made you ignorant?" I just fought with your third sister, I saw your third sister in the Hou Mansion two days ago, she looked better and better, and made a poem to amaze the audience, Mrs. Ding kept her by her side, and the old lady of the Hou Mansion rewarded her with a pair of bracelets. β
Ding Rou lowered her eyes, the third sister, Hou Yefu, this plot is too familiar, remember that Mrs. Hou Fu is Ding Rou's eldest sister.
