Xuan Ye accompanied Yichen to this Fu Wangfu, it has been nearly a year in a blink of an eye, for the impression of the second prince who was quite neglected, at this time there was already a more specific and intuitive impression, don't look at it as a prince, but the temperament is extremely gentle, and he used to be gentle to the princess, that is, to the slaves and maids who married them, they are also kind and pleasant, and they have never put the emperor's nobles on the shelf, if the most surprising thing is to refuse to accept the side concubine, even the slaves and maids did not expect that their prince would have such a resolute side.

But I also heard that Xuanye had never witnessed what kind of momentum King Fu was resolute about.

So when King Fu raised his voice to say that sentence, when Xuan Ye entered and saluted, he saw the solemn face of the prince sitting on it, and he was stunned on the ground for a while, forgetting the etiquette and should stand with his eyes down.

"Lonely and ask you, what grievances have the princesses suffered recently." King Fu asked in a deep voice.

The voice was like the weight of pig iron, and it pressed straight to the hearts of people, and Xuan Ye understood how gentle and slow the prince was in the past, and in the end, he was the son of the saint, and he was naturally powerful.

If you want to talk about Xuanye, it's not that when you play a small waiter in Yichen's boudoir, she was originally a maid next to the eldest princess, although her temperament is a little straightforward, but she has her own infatuation in her bones.

The princess's temperament is really too dignified, she only abides by those etiquette and women's virtues, no matter what persecution and grievances she suffers, she also gritted her teeth and forbears, Xuan Ye has already seen anxiously, she can't figure out the thoughts of those nobles in the palace, but she thinks that the eldest princess will not let the princess be humiliated, and repeatedly persuaded the princess to go back to the Guogong Mansion and tell the princess about the threats and difficulties of the concubine, but the princess reprimanded her a few words, saying that she had nothing to do, and warned her sternly that she could not play with her lips and tongues.

As soon as Xuanye thought of this, her eyes looked at Yichen, and she hesitated how to answer.

Yichen was obviously a little flustered, and persuaded King Fu with a forced smile: "If the prince has anything to say, ask the concubine." ”

King Fu, who has always been kind, is extremely stubborn today, only staring at Xuan Ye and asking: "Why don't you answer when you ask you." ”

Thinking of the princess's temperament, Xuan Ye was sure that she would not tell the truth, and she had been wronged, but now Concubine Li's side was too wronged, and today she not only punished her in public, but also forcibly stuffed such a maid who didn't know what to do to add to the blockage. Thinking of this, Xuanye turned her heart sideways, gritted her teeth and knelt on the ground, like a bamboo tube pouring beans, "crackling" and told what had happened in the past few months: "The slave and maid reported to the prince, and since the first month, the palace concubine Niangniang has summoned the princess into the palace every now and then, and at first she said bluntly, saying that the princess's sister-in-law, Wu Niang, is close to the age and should be married, she intends to marry His Royal Highness the Sixth, forcing the princess to accept it, the prince Mingjian, the fifth lady is the princess's sister, but there is both a high hall and the eldest princess as the master, How could the princess get past it, the princess told the truth, but the concubine was dissatisfied...... Later, through those gossip, he reprimanded the princess for being unvirtuous, which was nothing more than to force the princess to accept Wu Niang's affairs, and today she asked the princess to take Qiongyi as a side concubine, and the princess hesitated a little, and was punished to kneel in front of the hall. ”

Yichen saw that the things he had been hiding so hard were revealed, and he was very worried.

Playing the duchess of a small country will educate her, whether it is a child or a wife, the most important thing is filial piety and virtuousness, and the most taboo is to tell right and wrong, instigate trouble, and be unvirtuous and jealous - Concubine Li is the nominal "mother concubine" of King Fu, and she is her mother-in-law who is "justifiable", and she can't do anything about what she asks, let alone instigate in front of King Fu.

Moreover, the prince has always been treated coldly because of his biological mother's background, if it is because of her, he has added the charge of "unfilial piety", and he will be more and more underestimated in the future, and he will be blamed for it, as long as the prince is smooth, this is also the duty of a wife.

It is even more impossible to use the power of her mother's family to put pressure on Concubine Li and embarrass King Fu.

At this time, Yichen was a little angry with Xuanye's nonsense, pulled down his face and ordered her to go out, thinking of advising King Fu not to make this matter more and more troublesome.

Seeing Yichen's embarrassed appearance, he only felt unspeakable bitterness in his heart, pulled her to sit on the kang, and said preemptively: "Because of me, I have let you suffer so much, and I don't even know it......"

"There is no grievance...... Yi Chen just said, and was stopped by King Fu again: "Let me ask you, my mother and concubine are so difficult, even if you are afraid that I will be embarrassed and insist on forbearance, why don't you go back to the Gongfu to ask the elders for ideas?" ”

"The concubine is ......" Yichen sighed: "It is also because of selfishness, I know the temperament of the fifth sister, and she has always been regarded as a palm bead by her grandmother, and she will not be wronged at all...... To put it mildly, the mother concubine does not fancy the fifth sister herself, but the powerful position of the Guogong Mansion, which is nothing more than for the position of the prince...... Such an obvious thing, the concubine can see it clearly, the grandmother and father have already taken precautions, and the concubine went back to say it, but it only made the elders embarrassed. ”

When King Fu heard this, he smiled lightly: "Ah Chen, you really understand...... But this matter should not be hidden from the father-in-law, let alone the grandmother, you or do not know the temperament of the mother's concubine, but I know her deeply, the most stubborn, since you have this thought, I am afraid that it will not be easily dispelled, even if you do not act, she will think of other ways to promote, if you inform the Guogong Mansion, it is also to let the elders have a preparation. ”

When Yichen heard this, he felt that he was not thoughtful, and he became more and more ashamed.

"Prepare, I'll go back to Yue's house with you in the next two days." King Fu stroked Yichen's cheeks, and the expression in his eyes deepened: "I can't promise you anything else, I won't let you suffer these idle grievances, and that Qiongyi, if she does her part, it's nothing more than raising a person for nothing, if there is any more provocation, just attack her, you don't need to look at anyone's face." ”

"But the mother ...... her"

"I will discuss it with my father-in-law to make her fearful." King Fu sighed lightly: "I know you don't want to embarrass me...... I don't want those positions of power and prestige, but I just want to live smoothly and happily, I have no blood relationship with Concubine Li, and she has never done my mother's affection to me, for that position, I will not be slack off when I should be respected, in the final analysis, the two are irrelevant. ”

"But in the eyes of the world, the prince should be filial to his mother and concubine." Yichen was still a little worried.

"In life, I can't be completely selfless, if I can't even protect my wife and children, I will be in vain for the descendants of this surname." King Fu didn't care, slowly stood up, looked at the twilight outside the window, and clenched the palm of his finger behind his waist.

——

The Three Princes' Mansion at this time.

The gray twilight is far outside the vermilion wall, the flower garden lacks a thousand charming Fangfei, the lonely branch is dotted with silk lanterns and colorful flags, illuminating the brilliant and dazzling courtyard, usually the three princes often stay together, listen to the music and watch the play of the time hall, it is even brighter, the charming maids hold the crystal clear glass bowl and fish through, those who hold the pipa and wear light yarn, have plucked the strings to play the sound of pearl and jade.

Concubine Kong, who combed a gorgeous high bun and hairpins with peony silk flowers on her sideburns, dragged her gorgeous begonia red skirt on the soft felt in the hall, the autumn waves were shining, everything was ready, and the corners of her lips were raised high, but when her eyes flickered over the green jade and red sandalwood case in front of the hundred flowers embroidery screen, she solidified on the pastry in the glass cup.

Shoved the stove in her hand into the maid's arms, Concubine Kong walked up with her chest up, and walked majestically to the front of the case, her jade fingers came out lightly, dyed with cardamom nails, and went straight to one of the red bean cakes made into flowers: "Who let this ......?"

Then a maid stepped forward and replied cautiously and with fear, "It's Concubine Ning...... Not only that, but the two dishes of honey-stuffed cockles and dried clams that were personally ordered by the mother herself have also been replaced with lotus fish buns and steamed anchovies with green onions. ”

"What a big dog guts, the two main dishes I have repeatedly instructed dare to be replaced!" Concubine Kong's ambition was complacent, and in an instant, it was replaced by lightning and thunder, which shocked the maid and maid with weak knees, and her whole body fell to the ground, even asking for forgiveness.

"Sister, why should I embarrass the slave." But there was a soft voice, lined by the sound of the strings in the hall, as if it was singing and joining.

Concubine Kong turned around angrily, but saw Concubine Ning wearing a cloak with a jade mink pendant collar, and walked with Shi Shiran, with a half-open Zhu Mei painted on her eyebrows, which was charming.

"That's what I mean, isn't it for Your Highness today? His Highness's most annoying thing is those two dishes. Concubine Ning pinched her orchid fingers, shook the brocade silk on her fingertips, and gently covered the corner of her lips: "It is said to be very fishy and difficult to swallow." ”

Concubine Kong was so angry that her eyebrows rose, and countless frost knives flew out of her eyes: "You dare to use Your Highness as a disguise, and who doesn't know that you don't like it." ”

Concubine Ning's smile was like a flower, and the plum blossom between her eyebrows bloomed more and more charmingly, and the corners of her slender eyes narrowed in a variety of ways: "My sister doesn't even have the opportunity to have a good word with His Highness, so how do I know His Highness's preferences." ”

Concubine Kong was even more angry, she only entered the prince's mansion in August, and half a month later, the third prince was ordered to go to Nanzhejiang, and it was not enough to have a round room with her, but she lived with Concubine Ning for a few nights before she made this slut proud.

Concubine Ning admired Concubine Kong's angry eyes, took two steps forward, leaned over to Concubine Kong's ear, and said with a sigh of relief: "Moreover, His Royal Highness once said in person, what I don't like is what he doesn't like." ”

Although these words were close to the ear, they did not suppress the sound, the attendants and maids around listened to it, everyone did not dare to raise their eyes, but they could feel the coldness emanating from Concubine Kong's body, Yu Guang saw Concubine Kong raise her hand violently, subconsciously took a step back, and a cold wind seemed to blow in her ears.

But the expected slap did not ring for a long time.

Concubine Ning had already prepared to be slapped - although both of them are side branches of the family, and they are not expensive in this family, but in comparison, Concubine Kong came from the queen's mother's family, and the door is a head higher than Ning's, and she is closer to the queen, according to this, in this prince's mansion, although the two live together in the position of side concubine, but those subordinates are more serious about Concubine Kong, Concubine Ning has long been dissatisfied, and today she intends to be arrogant, just to provoke Concubine Kong's anger, as long as this slap is fanned, Concubine Kong will have to be punished, take this opportunity, She was able to grasp the hearts of the Third Highness even more firmly.

Seeing that the cardamom-stained nails were close in front of her, Concubine Ning had already closed her eyes sideways......

But Concubine Kong just stroked the perilla on Concubine Ning's hair, and also learned from Concubine Ning's appearance just now, and breathed like an orchid: "Don't be too complacent." ”

When Concubine Ning opened her eyes, she saw that Concubine Kong had already taken two steps back, and in the splendor of the room, the anger between her eyebrows disappeared, and she only stared at her coldly.

The cold breath of the attendants and maids around him was hanging in their throats, and before they could swallow back to their hearts, they saw a waiter running in with a hunched waist, and said something that made the two concubines stunned-

"Two mothers, the Wei commander next to His Royal Highness just returned to the house to deliver the message, His Royal Highness Shen Mo has already left the imperial study, and went to Ci'an Palace, Kunren Palace, and East Palace respectively, and only went out of the Ping'an Gate two moments ago, but went straight to the Weiguo Mansion, and should not come back for dinner."

The two concubines, who were still tense just now, subconsciously exchanged glances, and each of them was surprised-
