On the way to Yaohua Palace, Su Xue was very annoyed in her heart, her loss to Su Jinzhao had made people see a joke, and now even a maid dared to talk about her behind her back, saying that she was not, and she really didn't take her seriously.

If Su Jinzhao hadn't come forward to stop her today, she would have tore that girl's mouth.

Yu quietly saw her gloomy face, and her eyes full of anger made people dare not look directly. Yu quietly rolled her eyes and said softly: "Miss, you dissipate your anger, don't affect your mood for a cheap maid, you have to go to see Concubine Ru Niangniang later, if you lose your manners in front of people, it is not good after all."

That being said, but how can she dissipate her anger now, a little slave dares to talk about her arrogantly, isn't it that everyone doesn't take her in their eyes, this breath, she is really difficult to swallow.

She snorted coldly: "A is so disrespectful to me, and others will follow suit in the future, and it will be too deceitful." As she spoke, she clenched into fists, and the anger on her face couldn't be more obvious.

After listening to Yu quietly, she took the opportunity to say: "In the end, that girl is just relying on the three imperial concubines to support her, so she doesn't know how important she is, and the slave maid wants to teach her a good lesson for the young lady, but she was stopped by the third imperial concubine. Don't be angry. ”

Yan Xue's eyes suddenly became a little colder, and she immediately said angrily: "At the beginning, she was just an ugly girl, a joke in the whole of Kyoto, if it weren't for the third prince, why would she dare to threaten me today, she simply didn't take me in her eyes, how can this breath go on, grow so big, and no one has ever been so rude to me."

She is the only daughter of the Yan family, she has been held in the palm of her hand by her family since she was a child, she can't be beaten or scolded, for fear that she will be wronged, and now Su Jinzhao is clearly against her, isn't it relying on her identity as the imperial concubine, she doesn't want to think about it, it won't be long before she will marry Yu Wenxian, and when the time comes, she will be the second imperial concubine who is justifiable.

When Su Jinzhao saw her, I was afraid that he would have to call her, "Sister-in-law." ”

Yu quietly flashed in her eyes, as if she thought of something, and said out loud: "Miss is the person who was personally chosen by Concubine Ru for the second prince to marry, and it is a matter of time before she marries the second prince and becomes the imperial concubine.

Yan Xue was silent for a moment, remembering the scene just now, she was so unhappy, she said: "In addition to having a good-looking skin, I don't know what the third prince likes about her." If it weren't for the three princes who favored her, I was afraid that she would still be a joke in Kyoto City. is so rude to me, and speaks against me, it's best not to fall into my hands in the future, otherwise she will feel better. ”

Hearing this, Yu quietly leaned over and said, "If the eldest lady really came up with this breath, the slave maid has an idea."

Yan Xue pursed her lips, looking like she didn't believe it, and said, "What can you do?"

Even she has no way to be the master, just a maid, what good way can she think of. Naturally, she didn't believe it.

Yan Xue's attitude seemed to have poured a basin of cold water on Yu Xian, and in the face of the master's suspicious gaze, Yu quietly said: "The slave maid has taken some risks in this method, and I am afraid that you will not agree with it, so I hesitate to tell you."

Listening to this tone, it seems that there is indeed a way, Yan Xue said: "Since there is a way, why don't you make it clear in the morning, say it quickly, what is the way?"

Yu quietly told Yan Xue what she thought in her heart: "People are now the third princesses, in terms of identity, if the young lady openly asks her to settle accounts and spreads it, she will be left behind, but it is different if she is a concubine, how to say that she is also an elder, the third imperial concubine does not dare to have the slightest disrespect for her, if you tell the matter just now to the concubine Niangniang, the young lady will marry the second prince in the future, for the relationship between the concubine and the young lady, how can you say that she will not help you?" It's just that although this method is good, after all, it is a bit risky, if Concubine Ru knows that you are using her, I am afraid that it will affect Concubine Ru's impression of you at that time. ”

Yan Xue lowered her eyebrows and pondered for a while, she felt that what the maid Yu whispered was a good idea, such as the concubine as the head of the six palaces, and the most favored concubine in today's sainthood, even the ministers of the court and the central government saw her, they were very respectful to her, bullying themselves was equivalent to slapping the concubine's face, if she told her today's events, she would definitely not sit idly by.

If she stands up for herself, then who will dare to ignore her in the future. Not to mention just a Su Jinzhao, even if it is a saint, he can't take care of Concubine Ru.

Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on the corner of Yan Xue's mouth, and she subconsciously looked at Yu Xian: "This is a method, you can try it." If it is done, Miss Ben will be rewarded, and she will not be unkind to you after all. ”

Hearing this, Yu quietly said with bright eyes: "Where did the eldest lady say, this is what the slave and maid should do, I just hope that the concubine can make the decision for the eldest lady and help you out of this evil breath, as for the rest, the slave and maid will be satisfied, and will not ask for a reward."

Yan Xue glanced at her, she was a girl who knew how to measure, but if this thing was done, what would be the reward.

Having made up her mind, Yan Xue couldn't help but speed up her pace, and when the master and servant arrived at the Yaohua Palace, Concubine Ru was practicing calligraphy in the house.

The palace maid Xiang Ning led her to see Concubine Ru.

"The courtier Yan Xue has seen Rufei Niangniang." Yan Xue bowed, and the maid behind her also knelt down.

Concubine Ru said lightly: "Get up." The pen in his hand did not stop, and a pair of eyes were concentrating on writing.

Yan Xue got up, hesitated for a moment, and saw Concubine Ru's focused appearance, she was curious for a while, so she couldn't help but lean over and take a look, she couldn't help but feel disrespectful, and subconsciously withdrew her gaze.

At this time, Concubine Ru's voice sounded: "In your opinion, how is the handwriting of this palace?"

Yan Xue was a little surprised, she didn't expect Concubine Ru to ask her, if she didn't say it well, it would make the other party unhappy, and if she blindly praised the other party's words, she had to flatter and flatter.

Yan Xue stepped forward and looked at the words written by Concubine Ru, thought about it, and said: "Niangniang's words are solemn, very rare, without three or five years of persistence, I am afraid that it will not reach such a level, but if Niangniang takes care of it when she writes, if she lets go, there are no distracting thoughts, maybe it will be better."

Instead of trying to please the other party, it is better to tell the truth. If the concubine can have today's status, it is not something that can be achieved overnight, what kind of woman has not been seen on weekdays, if she intends to flatter, she will inevitably see through her mind, it is better to tell the truth, and leave a sincere impression in front of her.

As soon as the words fell, Concubine Ru put down the pen in her hand, looked carefully at the words in front of her, nodded, and said, "You can see it."

Yan Xue hesitated for a moment, and asked cautiously, "Is there anything worrying about Niangniang?"

Concubine Ru raised her eyes to look at her, shook her head, and said: "It's nothing, it's just that the second prince has reached the age when he should start a family, and the princes behind him have become relatives, and the mothers of this palace will inevitably be anxious for him."

Yan Xue was stunned in her heart, but she didn't make a sound, her expression was a little strange.

After a pause, Concubine Ru continued: "This palace has heard from the saint that Yan Ge Lao's handwriting is very good, looking at the entire court, there are few who can compare to him, you are his granddaughter, presumably you should have received a lot of guidance from him on weekdays."

Yan Ge's old handwriting is well-known, but no matter how good the handwriting is, in addition to the necessary talent, it also needs to accumulate over time, who is not born overnight.

Yan Xue replied: "Yan Xue has been carefully cultivated by her grandfather since she was a child, although there is some progress, but it is far inferior to her grandfather's, I just hope that it is enough not to disappoint him."

When Concubine Ru heard this, she pulled her aside and sat down, and said with a smile: "How can I be disappointed, for your reputation as the first talented woman in Kyoto, I'm afraid I'm proud of you."

Yan Xue's face froze, paused, and said, "Niangniang said that she laughed, but I'm afraid that others won't see it that way."

This is said to be too profound, and this so-called other person clearly means something else.

How could Concubine Ru not hear it, she asked, "What, who said something that made you uncomfortable to listen to?"

Yan Xue didn't say anything, but the jade on the side whispered, and said to his face: "Who else can there be besides the third imperial concubine."

At this time, Yan Xue pretended to be angry and scolded Yu quietly: "There are no rules, the master speaks, how can you be allowed to intervene, no big or small, and you will not retreat."

Who knows, Concubine Ru raised her hand and said, "Let her continue, this palace wants to hear it."

Yu quietly told what happened today, and there was no suspicion of adding oil and vinegar: "...... Hui Niangniang, things are probably like this, the maid next to the three princesses said behind the master's no, the words are really ugly, the slave and maid can't look at it, and wants to seek justice for the young lady, who knows that the three princesses stand up to protect the short, the slave and maid have a low status, how dare to provoke the three princesses, if you anger her, I am afraid that the slave and the maid will have to suffer a beating, her punishment is the most powerful, the slave and the maid feel afraid when they think about it, but unfortunately the master has to be ridiculed in vain. ”

Hearing this, Concubine Ru frowned and said, "Hearing you say that, the Third Imperial Concubine has beaten you before?"

At this time, Yan Xue spoke up: "Niangniang, don't listen to this girl's nonsense, if you don't have anything, don't listen."

Concubine Ru said: "Not necessarily, this palace sees that what this little girl said is the way, if you don't experience it yourself, how can you say it so realistically, it's not that you have the intention to hide it."

Yan Xue was stunned for a moment, and said in a low voice: "The courtiers don't dare."

On the surface, she persuaded Concubine Ru not to listen, but in her heart she wished that the more Yu quietly said, the better, since Concubine Ru wanted to listen, how could she not say it. If she is not happy in her heart, she will also ask others to follow her.

Yu quietly said the last time she was beaten: "...... The three imperial concubines hurt when they beat people, and the slave's injuries took a long time to heal, and the master felt sorry for the slave and maid, otherwise, the slave and maid were afraid that they would be dead. ”

"It is also said that the master is kind-hearted and does not care about others, but she is the eldest lady of the Yan family, and she is going to marry the second prince, a little maid dares to talk about the master behind her back, saying that the master is not, the slave and the maid are courageous, as the so-called do not look at the face of the monk and look at the face of the Buddha, today to the master is so rude, in fact, it is to slap the face of the mother, and not to put you in the eyes."

At this moment, Concubine Ru's face was very ugly, but her tone was calm and said, "You maid is really bold."

Yan Xue's heart suddenly tightened when she heard this, could she have been seen through? The maid Yu quietly weakened, and hurriedly knelt down: "If the concubine spares her life, the slave and maid are not daring to offend, but they really can't see their own master being bullied, so this is ......"

Before she finished speaking, Concubine Ru interrupted: "Did this palace say that you were wrong?" As she spoke, she raised her hand to get her up and reply.

Yu was confused, but she didn't dare to make a sound easily at the moment, such as the concubine's temperamental personality, if she didn't speak properly and made her unhappy, it was not worth losing her life, although Yan Xue was her master, Fang Cai also took the risk for the master, if she wanted to risk losing her life for the master, Yu quietly was unwilling.

Concubine Ru's eyes fell on Yan Xue, compared to the tone in which she and Yu quietly spoke, but at this time it was a little softer, and she said: "This kind of thing, you don't say it in your heart, do you think you are useless, or do you think that this palace is not capable of making decisions for you?"

Yan Xue hurriedly said: "Niangniang is angry, Yan Xue didn't mean this, it's just a trivial matter, it's really not worth mentioning, it's my maid who is reckless, I said something that shouldn't be, Niangniang just listened, don't go to my heart, the second prince and the third prince are brothers, if there is a discord over such a trivial matter, it will be Yan Xue's fault."

Concubine Ru sneered and said: "If you think about others, people can think about you for half a point, but if Su Jinzhao takes into account your feelings, she will not talk nonsense from the maids around her, it can be seen that she is not a woman who cares about the feelings of others on weekdays, but is a little selfish." Originally, Bengong still had a good impression of her, but when I heard your maid say this, I realized that it was Bengong who looked away before. Although it is true that the second prince and the third prince are brothers, if they fall out because of a trivial matter, this so-called brotherhood is nothing more than that, you are going to marry the second prince, and you will become a family in the future, if Su Jinzhao understood this, he would not have appeared today. But it doesn't matter, this palace will not let you be bullied by others. ”

When she heard the last sentence, Yan Xue's hanging heart could finally settle down, with the support of Concubine Ru, who would dare to say no to her in the future, and those who were talking about her behind her back, she wanted to see who would dare to be disrespectful to her in the future.

Su Jinzhao snatched the man she loved the most in her life, made her laugh all the jokes, and lost face, forcing her to choose to marry a man she didn't love.
