Although the crown princess was surprised by Guo Liangdi's news, over the years, she has developed a more calm ability to encounter major events, and at the same time, because she has been together for a long time, she also knows where Guo Liangdi has some news, and knows that her move is just to surprise herself, so she doesn't ask where the news comes from, but says: "Qing'er has a little lover, why don't I know about it?" How they break the thread, do you see? โ
Although Guo Liangdi knew that the princess's mind was unpredictable, she was still anxious about her indifferent attitude, "The concubine knows that you don't believe it, sister, and she likes that Sun Guifei very much on weekdays, but think about it, this is no wind and no waves, I heard that Sun Guifei's little lover was born on the same year, the same month and the same day as her, this kind of affection can be compared to others?" โ
"Although I didn't see it in person, if they didn't break the thread, why did Du Ruo in her house secretly take the jewelry, and said that Sun Guifei asked her to exchange silver for her brother, I heard that there are 1,000 taels of silver tickets, Sun Guifei's monthly routine for a year is only 600 taels, and she actually took out so much silver to an outsider, if you want to say that there is nothing between them, who believes it?"
Although Guo Liangdi said that she hid her head and tail, the crown princess still understood, "You mean, Qing'er's little lover is Du Ruo's younger brother in her house, she asked Du Ruo to secretly take the jewelry and give the silver to Du Ruo's younger brother?" It's just that there is such a thing, so shouldn't they hide it from others, how can you know it? โ
How can Guo Liangdi say that she has also heard what people say, it is precisely because even such a private thing can be known by that person that she admires that person's methods and believes that the benefits that person has given her will definitely be realized.
Hearing the crown princess ask, she explained with a smile, "If people don't know about the things in this world, unless they do nothing, where is the possibility of not revealing the slightest rumor?" Thinking about Du Ruo, he was used as jewelry, and he borrowed silver from the people in front of him, and he had already been seen by the discerning person, of course, their master and servant were carrying people behind their backs, but there was still a little maid who listened to a sentence and a half, and this was the connection, but that was not the case. โ
"Not to mention that such a thing can't be hidden, just say that the 1,000 taels of silver is to be taken out by the concubine and given to others, and the concubine is reluctant, if they are innocent, how can Sun Guifei be willing to give it to a slave's younger brother?"
The crown princess laughed, as if laughing at Guo Liangdi's fuss, "Maybe Du Ruo begged for her brother, Qing'er treats Du Ruo like a sister, and it is not surprising that she gives money to her family." Besides, Du Ruo's younger brother has also grown up with her since he was a child, just like a family member, and it is not surprising that she needs some silver in an emergency. โ
Guo Liangdi sneered, "If it's really that simple, why would the concubine come to you to talk to you." Even if Concubine Sun Guifei borrowed money from Na Du Ruo's younger brother, could it be that she still needed to see him in person? It doesn't mean to make an IOU. โ
"See him in person? You said Qing'er wants to see Na Du Ruo's brother? โ
"Yes, at noon today, on the twenty-first day of the lunar month, I heard Mrs. Dong, who was guarding the West Corner Gate, say that Du Ruo promised her a lot of silver, and let her open the door and let her brother in. If it was just their sister and brother meeting, the corner gate said something, so why let it in? Isn't it just that Sun Guifei wants to see him, this woman in the house has a private meeting with a foreign man, and it is embarrassing to say it. โ
Looking at the princess's expression, Guo Liangdi, whose face was flushed, explained: "Mrs. Dong is the mother-in-law of a daughter-in-law in my courtyard, and the daughter-in-law felt that this matter was a bit big, so she quietly asked the concubine to know, and the mother-in-law Dong already knew that it was wrong, and when the concubine came, she knelt in the courtyard to ask for guilt." โ
The crown princess said lightly: "My sister is worried, such a big East Palace, I really can't manage some things, I asked you and Li Liangdi to bear a little bit before, you always push a few county kings to be small, and now they are also older, you should take out the prestige of the three masters." It's the same with you when she says back, so why do you need to kneel and plead guilty? โ
Turned his head to Mama Shan and said: "Mama, you go out and tell that Mrs. Dong to get up, just say that she replied to Guo Liangdi and said in front of me that it was the same, no need to make amends, and the same will be true in the future, pick up the important ones and report them to me, for general things, please ask Li Liangdi and Guo Liangdi to take ideas." โ
Mama Shan responded, stopped, and gently gave the crown princess a dawn and a moon, and smoothed out the wrinkled clothes that had just been massaged.
Guo Liangdi was overjoyed when she heard that the crown princess had given some rights to herself, but she didn't show anything on her face, she still stood weakly, and excused herself again and again, "A slave like this, regardless of importance, should be taught a good lesson, sister, you are too sympathetic to them, and if you want to follow your sister's wishes, you should beat her ten mouths." โ
The crown princess raised her eyes and looked at her, "Mama, when you go out, Guo Liangdi said that Mrs. Dong is not serious, and she slapped her mouth ten times." โ
Mama Shan answered and withdrew.
Guo Liangdi moved a stone and hit her own foot, and she hadn't given the benefits to Mrs. Dong yet, so she hit her first, but she couldn't stop it, and she couldn't stop it, so she was silent for a moment before she said tentatively: "Sun Guifei's side, I'm afraid that something will happen, so I've asked people to take a look and stare at her to see if there is any movement." I don't know if this is proper or not, so I asked my sister to show me. โ
The crown princess nodded at Guo Liangdi, "You did a good job, if this is true, making plans early is a good way to avoid evil." But we also have to guard against the despicable villain who fell into the well out of nothing, after all, Qing'er was grown up by you and me, and we still know how much she is a person, I don't believe what kind of self-loss of identity she will do, no shame or shame, do you believe it, sister? โ
Seeing that the crown princess changed the direction of her words lightly, Guo Liangdi smiled and said: "Hearing is false, seeing is believing, after all, this person is separated from the belly, and the concubine is not good to say whether Sun Guifei will do that thing, I knew that my sister believed her so much, why should I be bored?" The concubine then asked people to withdraw back, regardless of the matter of chasing after the wind and shadows. โ
"You also said that there is no wind and no waves, since it is almost noon, let's go, let's go and see for ourselves, what kind of private man Qing'er is. After all, Zhan'er is not here, so we have to keep an eye on his inner house. โ
Seeing the crown princess standing up, Guo Liangdi had already gone to the anxiety in her heart, and she was a little more proud in her eyes, and stepped forward to help the princess.
Seeing this situation, Mama Shan, who entered the house, hurriedly beckoned the maids waiting outside to come in and dress them and put on hats, and when the princess went out with Guo Liangdi calmly, a maid who was waiting on the side had already sent a big woolly cloak up, and the two of them put them on separately, and went to the direction of the West Corner Gate with a large group of people.
There is a small road connecting the north gate of the west corner and the Hanlian courtyard, there are a lot of holly planted on the side of the road, the light gray bark, the leaves that resemble the gentian are thick and broad, some of the trunks are towering into the clouds, some are only half a person high, but no matter the height or short, they are brittle stems thick and short, the branches and leaves are green and verdant, it looks very pleasant in winter, the holly tree is pale yellow or orange-red fruit juice is thick and pulp, it is a good food for the birds when they are hungry in winter.
When Sun Qingyang and Du Ruo arrived at the northwest corner gate, the birds on the holly tree were chirping happily.
Mrs. Dong, who was already waiting at the corner gate, greeted them with a smile when she saw them, "Your concubine, Miss Du Ruo, the people you are waiting for have not come yet?" โ
Sun Qingyang looked at the faintly visible mud marks on the knees of Mrs. Dong's skirt, her red and swollen face, raised her eyes and asked Du Ruo, "Are you waiting for someone when you come here today?" โ
Du Ruo was stunned, "Wait for someone?" Didn't the noble concubine say that the winter was boring and gray, and she wanted the slave to accompany you to choose some holly branches and leaves and go back to insert the bottle? He turned his head to look at Mrs. Dong again, "I'm not waiting for anyone today, are you mistaken?" โ
Mrs. Dong looked at their expressions and shook her head, as if she wanted to shake herself clearly, "Didn't the previous Du Ruo girl come to let me reserve the corner door on the twenty-first day of the lunar month, and saw your brother coming, let him in, and said that he had something to talk to your concubine?" โ
Sun Qingyang's face sank.
Du Ruo shouted angrily, "Okay, you Mrs. Dong, you are full of nonsense, that is, I asked you to stay in the corner door to see my brother, what did you do with your concubine?" Don't you know the rule that women in the house are not allowed to meet outside men? How could a noble concubine do such a self-defeating thing? You arrange your concubines like this, who promised you what benefits? Let's go to Her Royal Highness the Crown Princess to discern it, don't break your mouth that deceives and chews your tongue, you don't know that Lord Ma has three eyes. โ
Discerning? How to distinguish, only Du Ruo and her knew the situation at that time, and now Du Ruotui is clean, although I don't know what the reason is, Mrs. Dong also knows that her words are inappropriate, and Sun Guifei is involved in this, even if it is true, as long as you are not caught on the spot, if you say it yourself, it will be a rumor, and you will definitely be slapped.
Mrs. Dong hurriedly knelt on the ground in a hurry, "Xu is the slave and maid heard it wrong, and begged the concubine to spare the slave and maid this time, and I won't dare next time." It's just that picking these branches and leaves, you can order your subordinates to do it, how can you tell your concubines to come out and be frozen? โ
Du Ruo glanced at Mrs. Dong coldly, "Speaking of which, it's not like you don't understand the rules?" I also know that these things should be done by subordinates, but are you supposed to inquire about the affairs of the masters? I'm not afraid to tell you, but I'm afraid that you will hear it wrong, just like you heard the wrong thing, such a nonsense arrangement of noble concubines, not to mention the name of my noble concubines, but also to break the rules of our subordinates, and still want to spare you, do you think it is possible? โ
Mrs. Dong knelt on the ground trembling, thinking about how to excuse herself, but she heard Du Ruo's words suddenly change, "It's not impossible to spare you, go, open the door." โ
It turned out that Du Ruo was training Mrs. Dong, and in a blink of an eye, she saw Fuzhi coming over, and saw her nodding invisibly to herself, knowing that things were going according to their plan, so she no longer talked to Mrs. Dong, so she opened the door directly.
Mrs. Dong's heart was going up and down, and suddenly she heard Du Ruo call her to open the door, she was a little dizzy, and raised her head in surprise and said, "Didn't you say that you wouldn't wait for anyone?" Why do you still want to open the door? โ
