Chapter 270: The Wicked Woman
Lin Jia smiled, and the rare little tiger teeth were revealed: "I won't tell you!"
With that, he got up and went out.
A lot of people are waiting to see him!
Lan Zhen also got up: "Lord Wang, the last general also has to go back, the tigress in the family is pregnant, and she will be asked if she goes back late."
Lin Jia walked in front and smiled again - compared to Mrs. Lan Zhen, his jade gardenia was simply very gentle! It's so cute!
At this time, the "very gentle" and "so cute" Yu Yu was sitting on the Luohan bed, and the maids who were waiting in the Tingsong courtyard stood in three rows, all of them lowered their heads and listened to Hanlin holding a booklet reading the rules of the inner courtyard of the palace, Ye Ling, Ye Bi and Jin'er stood on the side, looking at them with a straight face.
There are a total of twenty maids in Tingsong Courtyard, of which there are four first-class maids, namely Hanlin, Ye Ling, Ye Bi and Jin'er; There are also four second-class maids, namely Spring Rain, Yiyun, Cherry and Lotus Ji; There are twelve third-class little maids, and most of them can't go into the main room to wait, just do some rough work in Tingsong Courtyard.
After Han Lin finished talking about the rules of the inner courtyard of the palace, Yu Yu said lightly: "Han Lin has already said the rules of the inner courtyard of the palace, who else hasn't heard clearly?"
Seeing that Concubine Bai's eyes were cold and slowly swept over, Cherry was a little weak and hurriedly lowered her head.
Lian Ji and Yi Yun both looked as usual, they felt that the prince was young and handsome, with a high and powerful position, and he was born with a group of wives and concubines surrounded by women, and the white side concubine, a side concubine born from a maid, actually wanted to dominate the prince, it was really wishful thinking!
Yu Gardenia's face is like severe frost: "Wait in the courtyard of Tingsong, if you do well, you will be rewarded richly, and if you don't do well, the punishment will be severe." In the future, when you make a mistake and are beaten out, or lose your life, don't say I didn't warn you! ”
After that, Yu Yu bowed slightly: "Let's go down!"
She had warned these people in advance, and it could be regarded as giving them a chance, and if she made a mistake again, she would never let them go.
There is a earth dragon in the house, warm as spring, and you have to sweat when you do some work.
It was raining heavily, pouring down, damp and cold.
At first glance, from the warm room to the wet and cold corridor, Yiyun and the others shivered and tightened the gowns they were wearing—according to the rules of the palace, the first-class maids could dress at will, and the second-class and below maids could only wear the moon-white jackets, white silk skirts and bamboo blue embroidered gowns issued by the palace.
Seeing that the third-class little maids left with umbrellas one after another, Yiyun looked at Cherry, Chunyu and Lianji with his arms and shoulders, but he didn't dare to speak.
The little maids are gone, but they, the second-class maids, have to wait under the porch, and they can't leave at all.
Chunyu walked to the railing, stretched out his hand to catch a drop of rainwater, and said in a low voice: "I have inquired, and they all say that although the side concubine has big rules here, it is very good to treat the people who are loyal to the waiter. Even if there are a few first-class girls in Hanlin, the side concubines are all prepared for dowry! ”
The three of Yiyun had different expressions, but none of them spoke.
When they came to the capital and saw the world, they could be regarded as opening their eyes.
Concubine Bai has countless properties under her name, but it is because she is the prince's concubine.
If they are favored by the prince and become side concubines, even if they are just a lady or an aunt who does not go to the jade, the prince's reward is probably very rich, just a few sets of jewelry, or a small house, what is it?
When Chunyu saw them like this, she didn't say more.
Everyone has their own path, so why should she talk too much? Just take care of herself!
Tonight, it is the spring rain and cherries that are on duty in the warm pavilion under the corridor.
Heavy rain, cold night, two people are in the warm pavilion around the small charcoal stove to roast the fire, heard the sound of footsteps outside, hurriedly drilled out of the warm pavilion to see, but saw the little guy with an umbrella to protect the prince over, busy to greet.
Seeing that it was almost in front of the prince, Cherry pushed the spring rain with her shoulder, and suddenly squeezed in front of the spring rain, smiling like a flower and curtsied: "The prince is back!"
Lin Jia nodded sloppily: "What about the side concubine?"
Cherry blinked: "Lord Wang, the side concubine has already fallen asleep!"
Chunyu glanced at the cherry and said, "Lord Wang, the side concubine waited for you all night, and then she couldn't stay up, so she went to sleep first!"
Lin Jia didn't know if she heard it, and went straight into the bright room.
Cherry was about to follow up, but was pulled by the spring rain.
Chunyu said in a low voice: "Have you forgotten the rules that Sister Hanlin recited?" Below the first-class maid, they are not allowed to enter the main room without being called by the master! ”
Seeing that the prince had already entered, Cherry hated Chunyu in his heart for ruining his chance, but his face was very scared, and he took Chunyu's hand: "What should I do then?" I forgot just now, thinking that I had to wait for the prince, and I almost followed the prince in."
Chunyu glanced at the cherry and said, "Then you remember it clearly in the future, don't break the rules anymore!"
Cherry timidly replied "yes".
Lin Jia didn't listen to what the maids said at all, he remembered Lan Zhen's "secret to having children", and he wanted to "have three times a day", so he went straight into the bedroom, thinking about getting it twice more and letting Yu Yu get pregnant earlier.
Yu Yu slept soundly, and was still a little dazed after being kissed by Lin Jia for a while, but she suddenly woke up the moment Lin Jia came in, and she was so angry that she bit Lin Jia's neck hard.
Lin Jia shuddered, hissed, took a breath, and tried his best to hold himself.
Chunyu fell asleep on the small bed in the warm pavilion.
Hearing the sound of Chunyu's slight and even breathing, Cherry softly called "Chunyu" and did not get a response from Chunyu.
She quietly got up and got out of bed, put on the gown that was on the back of the chair at the foot of the bed, and walked out of the warm pavilion lightly, and walked towards the east side of the dark room.
Outside the east dark bedroom, Cherry hides behind the pillars, listening to the movement in the bedroom.
At this time, the rain was still very heavy, and the raindrops "snapped" on the glazed tiles on the roof and fell on the bluestone of the courtyard, making a loud sound.
But Cherry listened quietly for a while, and still heard something different.
It seemed to be very quiet in the east dark bedroom, but if she put her ear to the window covered with moonlight veil, she could faintly hear the "squeak" sound made by the rhythmic shaking of the stepping bed, and Cherry even heard the cry of the white concubine, although the voice was very low, she still heard it, it was indeed the cry of the white concubine, crying miserably, intermittently.
Cherry found that she seemed to know a big secret, and her little face turned pale, and she didn't dare to listen to it anymore, so she tiptoed back.
After lying down on the narrow bed in the warm pavilion, Cherry had palpitations: how did the prince toss the white concubine and make the white concubine cry?
The man in Cherry's neighbor's house was a doctor who ran a medical clinic, and he loved to abuse women the most, and his wife was finally abused to death. Cherry has been listening to the corner with her mother since she was a child, and she has long known that it is not normal for some men in the world to be in bed.
Thinking of the bruised arms that she and her mother saw when she and her mother helped the doctor and her to wrap up after her death, a layer of goosebumps appeared on the cherry's body.
In the sound of the rain, the more she thought about it, the more frightened she became, and finally she simply lost sleep.
The next morning, Cherry and Chunyu did not have to take turns, returned to the west side courtyard and slept for half a day, and only went to Tingsong Courtyard at noon.
Cherry quietly observed Concubine Bai, and saw that her skin was crystal clear, her lips were red, her complexion was excellent, and there was nothing abnormal, but if you looked closely, you would find that Concubine Bai's eyelids were slightly swollen, and she should have cried last night
It seems that the prince does have a hobby of abusing women!
Cherry wanted to take another look at Concubine Bai's body, but unfortunately Concubine Bai only let Hanlin wait when she took a bath, she tried several times, but she didn't see it.
Since then, I have always thought of Lin Jia's cherries sprouting in spring, and when I saw Lin Jia again, I suddenly became heartbroken, and I was determined to quit coveting the beauty of the prince, serve the poor Bai Concubine well, and let Bai Fang Concubine accompany the deputy dowry to marry a good husband in the future!
After the dissolution of the court meeting on this day, Lin Jia accompanied Emperor Yongtai to the Yutang Palace.
Emperor Yongtai sat lazily in the treasure chair, and pointed to the brocade stool on the left hand side with a smile: "Ajia, sit down, it's still weird to be tired when you stand!"
Lin Jia did not shirk and sat down on the brocade bench.
Emperor Yongtai smiled and said: "Gao Li actually sent their son over to be a proton this time, it seems that this time he is really soft!" Ajia, thanks to you for convincing them! ”
Lin Jia said lightly: "Father, I read the Book of the Old Tang Dynasty when I was a child, and I was very impressed by Fang Xuanling's evaluation of Goryeo."
"Fang Xuanling has overrated Gaoli?" Emperor Yongtai's curiosity was aroused, "Which word?" Why don't I remember? ”
Lin Jia lowered his eyes, remembering that on the eve of his conquest of Goryeo, Yu Yu also recited this sentence to him, he thought for a while, and really began to recite: "Fang Xuanling's sentence is 'Those who are in Goryeo are cheap and cheap, and they are not enough to be treated with benevolence and righteousness, and they cannot be blamed for common courtesy. In ancient times, fish and turtles should be used to skim from the broad, if you want to extinct its species, the fear of beasts is poor, then fight'. ”
Seeing Emperor Yongtai looking at him with blazing eyes, as if waiting for him to continue reciting, Lin Jia couldn't help but sigh, and recited again: "Fang Xuanling expressed three conditions for me China to crusade against Goryeo, 'If you want to make Goryeo violate the courtier's festival, you can punish him; Disturb the people, and destroy them; It can be troubled for China for a long time, and it can be removed. There is one such thing, although it is not ashamed to kill ten thousand people every day'. The reason why we crusade against Goryeo is not because what Goryeo did met the first condition of Fang Xuanling, obviously we were vassals of the Great Zhou, but we did something that violated the etiquette of the courtiers and declared ourselves vassals to Xixia Nagong, so we crusade against Goryeo, we are the teachers of justice, and success is natural! ”
Emperor Yongtai smiled proudly and applauded: "My Ajia is so smart! It makes sense! ”
Lin Jia: "These praises from my father are really explicit, so that he even blushes!"
There was an earth dragon in the jade hall, warm as summer, Lin Jia sat for a while and felt a little hot, so he easily opened the collar embroidered with cloud patterns.
Emperor Yongtai was about to talk to Lin Jia, but he saw that there seemed to be a dark purple scar on Lin Jia's neck near the collarbone, so he hurriedly leaned over to look at it, and found that the scar was still broken, and he was furious at the moment, and said, "Ajia, what is the scar on your neck?"
Only then did Lin Jia realize that he had just done something inappropriate, so he hurriedly covered up his clothes, and blushed and said, "Father, I accidentally scratched it!"
Looking at the wound on Lin Jia's neck, Emperor Yongtai was simply heartbroken: "Ah Jia, I know, it must be the woman of the Bai family who twisted it, and the skin is broken!" The Bai family is too poisonous, don't hang yourself on her crooked neck tree, go out and take a look! If a beautiful woman is a flower, then the capital of our Great Zhou is a garden full of flowers, what kind of beauty do you want? Go out and pick honey in those thousands of purples and reds! ”
Lin Jia: ""
He got up impatiently and walked to the window, and abruptly changed the topic: "Father, the emperor of Liao and the Empress of the Apocalypse have already set off to enter Liaozhou, and the envoys of Western Xia have also set off to enter Ganzhou, will they all be arranged in the state guesthouse at that time?" Will they take the opportunity to collude? ”
Lin Jia naturally knew that if Western Xia and Liao wanted to collude, they would collude even if they didn't come to Dazhou, he just wanted to change the topic.
Of course, Emperor Yongtai knew that Lin Jia was changing the topic, so he looked at Lin Jia angrily for a while, and sat down stupidly: "Ah Jia, when you regret it, don't say that I didn't remind you when the time comes!"
Lin Jia smiled slightly, and said in her heart: My Yuyu, I know how good it is, why let others evaluate it?
Back at Prince He's mansion, Lin Jia went straight to Tingsong Courtyard.
As soon as she arrived outside the main room, Lin Jia saw that there seemed to be a lot of people standing under the porch, and she couldn't help but be stunned.
When those maids and mothers-in-law saw that the prince had returned, their faces were immediately full of joy, and they all stepped forward and curtsy and saluted: "Congratulations to the prince!"
Lin Jia: "What's going on?"
