Chapter 230: Selling Women (I)
Princess Zhuang waited for Prince Zhuang to return to the house in the room, and by the way, the house was decorated, and people moved a bucket color character to hold the Fu, Shou, An, and Kang pattern rhombic porcelain pots, which put a few koi fish in the east, and the raw porcelain on the rosewood table next to the collection of brocade mallets was invited to leave, and two green glazed bottles were put on.
Everything was arranged, and Prince Zhuang just returned to the mansion.
The princess hurriedly greeted her and instructed the maid to give the prince wide clothes.
Although it is a summer official robe, it is still made tightly, and the clothes inside are already soaked all day, and the princess Zhuang told the maid to arrange a meal, and said: "The weather is so hot, since the emperor has already said that the prince can take the fold back to the mansion to see, it is better to ......"
Prince Zhuang didn't wait for the princess to finish speaking, and said lightly: "Where do you think this is?" East Palace? Prince's Mansion? Can you bring back the folds in the palace casually? ”
Prince Zhuang's words were frustrated, and she still said with concern: "Then the prince should also order someone to put more ice to cool down." ”
Prince Zhuang turned around and sat on the chair and looked at the furnishings in the room, "Several provinces have been affected by disasters this year, and there are people fleeing the famine everywhere, and the emperor is still frugal in the capital, how can we be extravagant in Beijing?" "The emperor likes to look at the subtleties of the act, and he should pay attention to the small things, not to mention that there are a few imperial histories and officials staring at him, these people are not big in official positions but they are all over the world, and when the emperor returns to Beijing, he must see their excerpts, and if he wants to exchange for the praise of the imperial history and the officials, he must be cautious.
Only then did Prince Zhuang understand the prince's intentions, and paused to talk about the furnishings in the house, "It's all according to what the prince said, but the concubine doesn't understand, since the prince doesn't believe the Taoist priest's words, why should he rearrange this place according to what he said?" ”
Prince Zhuang put down the teacup in his hand, "Who said I don't believe it?" People all over the capital believe in him, how can I not believe him? Since he said that I would have a plague of blood, we will keep peace as he said. "That way, when it happens, he won't be too clean to arouse suspicion.
Prince Zhuang smiled slightly, he really didn't expect that Fang Daochang, who was well-known in eastern Zhejiang, would be willing to be a dead soldier for him. As long as the obstacle of Prince An is gone, according to the order of the eldest and youngest, it will be his turn. Thinking of Concubine Jing's words to let her come a little later, I was happy again.
Prince Zhuang looked at the prince's face full of joy, and couldn't help but ask softly, "What good news did the prince get?" ”
Only then did Prince Zhuang speak, "It turns out that before he went to accompany the emperor to accompany the capital, the eighth prince fell ill. ”
Princess Zhuang frowned and thought again, "It's a pity that it's not the Nine Emperors who are sick, otherwise it might ......."
Prince Zhuang snorted coldly, stood up and went to the dining room, when she married back, she still felt that she was a little smart, and now she compares herself with others...... Prince Zhuang thought of Concubine Jing in his mind, which was simply stupid.
The Nine Emperors are the biological birth of the Imperial Concubine, and the Eighth Emperor recognized the Imperial Concubine as his mother, if the Nine Emperors have something to do, at least it will not be easy to blame this biological mother, but the Eighth Emperor is different, concealing the illness of the Eighth Prince, just to regain the Holy Grace...... What will happen if such a thing is known to the emperor?
A strange smile appeared on Prince Zhuang's face.
Such a vicious heart will completely fall out of favor. The imperial concubine, who had been cautious, ignored such an important detail because Concubine Jing was in a mess.
Even if the Eighth Prince's illness was indeed cured, he would be able to find a way to make his old illness recur.
In Chang Ningbo's mansion, Chang Ningbo Ren Chengji was in a hurry in the house.
When Chu entered the door, Ren Chengji asked, "What about others?" Why can't you pay it back? Do you have to let Lao Tzu ask three and five please? ”
Chu hurriedly said: "It's not that Feng'er didn't come, last time the old man was angry and injured Feng'er's head, and now it's not good, Lang Zhong said that he will take some time in bed." ”
Ren Chengji said: "How many days have it been, why haven't you gotten better?" As soon as the words fell, I saw two maids slowly walking in from the outside with Ren Yanfeng in their arms, Ren Yanfeng lowered his head and turned sideways, looking sick and crooked.
Ren Yanfeng reluctantly saluted Ren Chengji, and then was helped to sit on a chair.
The son who gives him advice on weekdays has now become like this.
Ren Chengji suddenly became angry, raised his hand and wanted to hit again, "You brute, you want to be angry with Lao Tzu." "This son is good at everything, but on the women's side...... was supposed to cold him for a few days to make him repent, but he was indispensable to help him come up with ideas.
"Are you going to kill him?" Chu Shi stretched out his hand to stop it, and persuaded him in every possible way, Ren Chengji put down his hand and waved at Ren Yanfeng, "Let this beast do whatever he wants, don't be an eyesore in front of me." ”
Ren Yanfeng was carried away by his subordinates at this time.
Leaving his father's eyes, a smile appeared on Ren Yanfeng's face. Everyone has shortcomings, as long as you prescribe the right medicine, you don't have to worry about everything going well.
Ren Yanfeng returned to the room and immediately called her mother-in-law, who often delivered news, over, "When I go to Tao's house tomorrow, I will say that a good thing has been done." He gave the woman two taels of silver as a reward, and the woman went away with a thousand thanks.
Yanhua arrived at Tao's house, and no one came to pick up at the door, Ronghua's mother Feng, who was sent to follow the car, went with her to see the eldest lady and left, the eldest lady's face was quite ugly, and she looked at Yanhua a few times and said as if iron was not steel: "I have heard about Xiangqiao, how did you control the girl, how did you make such a thing." ”
taught her a lesson in front of Feng's mother.
Mother Feng was reasonable, and said busily: "I'm afraid it's not good for the slave to go back late." ”
The eldest lady glanced at Feng's mother and said, "I heard that she asked the steward of Zhuangzi to buy what kind of saline-alkali barren land?" ”
Feng's mother was stunned, "It's just a trial ...... given by the imperial court."
The eldest lady sneered, "I really can't get on the big stage, I don't care about other things, toss these things, if you can grow things in saline-alkali land, there won't be so many people who are desperate to sell their sons and daughters, and others can't grow things, she can grow a fart, I don't know how thick the sky is, and the teenage girl doesn't know if she is being played around, I ask you if she is the housekeeper in Xue Mansion?" Is it still pressed by the second room? She listens to what others say, and this kind of heart becomes whatever climate it becomes. As soon as she said this, she heard someone next to her "hum", and the eldest lady stopped talking.
Mother Feng's eyes drifted to the back room, it turned out that the eldest master was at home.
The eldest lady asked her and couldn't help but answer, Feng's mother said: "It's the wives who are in charge, and they haven't handed it over to the young ladies and grandmothers yet." "The implication is that the second wife is an elder after all, and the Xue family is not separated, so the young lady can't go past the elders," However, on the side of the big house, it was all arranged by the young lady. "That's true, too.
The eldest lady was obviously dissatisfied with this, and her face sank, "Just take care of the affairs of the big house, what kind of person is in charge." ”
Feng's mother hurriedly bowed her head and agreed.
The eldest lady was about to continue, and when she heard the sound of porcelain breaking, the eldest lady's face suddenly turned pale, and she instructed Mother Feng, "Go back."
Feng's mother went out, and the eldest lady glanced up and down Yanhua a few more times, "Look at you in the mirror, how do I teach you on weekdays, but you don't worry about it when you get married." ”
Advantech sobbed and cried.
The eldest lady waved her hand away, "Go back to your room and stay, you two make me look upset." ”
Yanhua came out of the big lady's house, thought about it, put away his tears and went straight to Yaohua's yard, Yanhua went straight to the moon gate in the backyard, and walked past the pond along the Yong Road with a fragrant strange flowers and plants, and then entered Yaohua's door, Yaohua was writing a notebook, and saw that Yanhua was busy putting down his pen and getting up.
Yanhua stepped forward and said, "Second sister, help me, what should I do next?" ”
Yaohua pulled Yanhua into the suite to talk.
Tao Zhengan walked out of the room briskly, looking at the eldest lady with a gloomy face.
The eldest lady said: "Master, you also heard, Rong Hua doesn't care about everything at home, Yanhua went to look for her, but asked Rong Hua to send someone back, Rong Hua's heart is in her mother-in-law's house, naturally she thinks it's best not to be implicated, so she will ignore the master's affairs." The old man couldn't completely listen to Rong Hua's words, and was bent on resigning...... It must be known that the wall fell down and everyone pushed it, and many people were defeated by the word resignation. The lord is in this position, and he can still find a way to fight for himself, and if he leaves this position, who can help the lord in the old love, and then it will really be called every day and not the earth. ”
Tao Zhengan said coldly: "What's the use of you saying this? If so, ask your niece, what is in her mind? ”
The eldest lady trembled, "Master, Concubine Jing heard some words in the palace......"
Tao Zhengan said: "How can this kind of thing be heard in the palace," looked at the eldest lady with gloomy eyes, "When Ronghua was suddenly ill, your niece was still a guest at our house......" At the end, his voice was raised.
The eldest lady suddenly choked, "What the master said is that he thinks my mother's family wants to use this matter......"
Tao Zhengan snatched the words and said: "What is it if it's not coercion?" Fang Zheng's face was full of anger, "Drink my blood, eat my flesh, and come to gnaw my bones, all white-eyed wolves who can't be fed." ”
When the eldest lady heard this, her chest was suffocated, and her eyes rolled and she almost fainted.
Tao Zhengan grinned and approached the eldest lady, "When you have nothing, see if your mother's family will help." Didn't you say that Concubine Jing's words were useful? Now is the time to use her, go and tell Concubine Jing to let her give me a death-free ......" Tao Zhengan almost hissed, "Go, go to avoid death......"
Tao Zheng'an's mouth spewed out a thick smell of wine, his eyes became red, and the eldest lady was suddenly so frightened that she couldn't say a word.
Tao Zheng'an stood in the room for a while, and was about to go out angrily, just opened the door curtain, and saw Yaohua who was going up the steps, Yaohua seemed to be frightened by Tao Zheng'an's face, and said timidly, "Father, where are you going?" ”
As soon as Yaohua's words fell, she only heard her mother-in-law come and say, "Master, a Master Zhang Jing Zhang has come to visit the master." ”
