Chapter Ninety-Six: The Aggrieved Side Concubine
Mingyue slept until she woke up naturally, and heard the courtyard door open and someone came in!
The side courtyard was originally for the errant to live, empty and depressed, the people were lazy, and they didn't clean it for some days!
The ground is full of weeds, and the bluestone pavement is also full of dead branches, and the whole courtyard looks very depressed!
There were footsteps outside, Mingyue was lying on the bed and didn't move, and from the footsteps, I could hear that there were several people!
When I got to the door, someone knocked on the door, "Is the princess up?"
After knocking a few times, she found that there was no movement in the house, and a woman commanded quite majestically, "Knock the door open, there has been no movement for so long, I guess I am dead!"
Immediately someone knocked on the door, and the early morning sun sprinkled into the house, disturbing the dust all over the house!
"Liu San's family, you go in and take a look!"
A servant woman answered, pushed open the door of the inner room, and her eyes fell on Mingyue on the bed.
"Mama, the person is straight and upright, and there is no movement!"
Mama tugged at the corners of her mouth, "Look carefully!"
Liu Sanjia stepped forward, wanting to confirm whether he was dead or alive, but he happened to see Mingyue's purring eyes rolling, and he was startled!
"Oops!"
When the people outside heard the exclamation, they also came in, "Are you dead? I haven't moved for a few days, I'm afraid it's ugly!"
"No! No! The side concubine is still alive!" Liu Sanjia stammered nervously!
A group of people hugged to the bed, and sure enough, they saw Mingyue blinking her eyes, and her face was different for a while!
Mingyue sat up and said with a smile, "I'm used to being cold, so many people come coldly, I'm not used to it!"
Look at her ruddy face and full of energy, which looks like a person who is going to die, several people look at each other!
It's not that you haven't eaten or drunk for several days, why are you still so energetic?
The leading grandmother drooped the corners of her mouth and snorted, "It's all three poles in the day, how can the side concubine not be able to pay it back! The prince asked you to copy Buddhist scriptures for the queen mother here to atone for your sins, but you are so lazy, it's really unruly!"
Mingyue got dressed and got out of bed, chuckling, "It's rare for someone to come, come and serve me!"
"Who is that? you go fetch water, I want to wash, and then bring me food!"
The corners of Mama's mouth pulled even harder, "At this point, the side concubine still doesn't understand her situation?" I advise you to stop, if you let the prince know, it will be good for you!"
Mingyue smiled, "I'm pretty honest, how can I stop?" By the way, I remember that I haven't been given food for a few days, isn't there even a mouthful of food in the palace, or someone deliberately wants to starve me to death, a side concubine!"
Mama didn't dare to admit it directly, after all, the prince just said that the concubine was grounded, and he didn't say that he wouldn't eat or drink!
She frowned and said, "The prince is in a bad mood, and the mother has no intention of taking care of anything else, so the side concubine should toss less!"
Mingyue pouted, "If I remember correctly, I am still the concubine of King Jing, I must have the treatment I deserve, the prince has not stopped my treatment, I advise you to go back to report to the princess, make up for me, and let me quietly copy the scriptures and pray for the queen mother!"
That grandmother is the princess's confidant, knowing that the master is waiting for the death of the princess, she thinks in her heart that she will simply kill her and go back to the errand, or what?
Mingyue seemed to see her thoughts, and sneered, "You should know that I haven't eaten or drunk for a few days, but you can see that my body is quite strong, haven't you thought about why?"
Mama was stunned, and suddenly remembered the recent theft in the kitchen, her eyes widened, and she was shocked, "Could it be you?"
Mingyue Yingying said with a smile, "The entrance to the palace is tight, and the doors are locked everywhere at night, and Mama suspects that I can go over the wall to steal things from the kitchen!"
The more she said this, the more suspicious Mama became, and her face became ugly!
"The side concubine is up, just hurry up and copy the scriptures, and the slave and maid will not bother if they still have something!"
Mingyue felt that she couldn't be a salted fish all the time, so she simply cleaned up the side courtyard and went straight to the princess's main house!
At this moment, King Jing's other side concubine, Chang Shi, and several concubines are greeting the princess!
Seeing Mama coming in quickly and whispering something in the princess's ear, the princess's face changed!
Concubine Chang rolled her eyes and said, "Isn't there something wrong with Mama's hurried behavior?" Niangniang doesn't think her sister is stupid, it's better to listen to it, maybe our sister can help with ideas!"
Several concubines also echoed one after another, and the princess frowned, and was about to let these women retreat.
I saw a voice at the door, "Why did the princess run out without permission!"
The princess sat up straight, and those women were also curious, I didn't hear that the prince had lifted the ban, how did Wang Mingyue get here?
There was a maid at the door, and Mingyue directly pushed the person away and broke in!
The princess just heard Mama muttering a few words, and she was suspicious, but now she saw Mingyue swaggering in, and her face was cloudy!
"You're grounded, how dare you break in!"
Mingyue looked at the women of King Jing, the princess was dignified and elegant, and the concubines also had their own appearances.
smiled, "I'm just grounded, the princess doesn't send people to serve, and she doesn't even deliver food, do you want me to fend for myself?"
The princess was stunned, and the other women were also surprised, and the princess dared to question the princess, is she crazy?
"What does my sister say, you are the concubine of the dignified and quiet king, and there are still people who abuse you!" As the main family, the princess is generous.
Mingyue found a chair and sat down, frowning and said, "Before I got up, a group of subordinates rushed in to see if I was dead or not! Alas, in the past, I only thought about not bothering the princess, and I had difficulties to overcome by myself, but I didn't expect people to be good and being bullied!"
"I was just grounded, and I was not degraded, not only did no one visit and care, but everyone wished that I would die early, it was really cold in the world!"
"What did my sister say! You were punished and grounded by the prince for colliding with the queen mother, and no one was allowed to visit!" Seeing the side concubine of Mu Ne in the past, she actually said these words, and the princess's brows tightened!
Mingyue snorted, "There is no one to serve and freshen up, let alone eat, the princess looks at the arrangement!
Seeing her calm attitude, the princess was slightly stunned, and hurriedly said, "Come on, wait for the concubine to go down and wash, and then order a good meal!"
Mingyue said with a smile, "The princess is really generous, that side courtyard really can't live, I think this courtyard is good, I will copy the scriptures here, let the princess supervise my sincerity!"
Her nose and face were so strong that the princess was more cautious!
"It is the prince's order to let my sister move to the side courtyard, even my sister can't change it, I will arrange someone to clean it immediately!"
Mingyue waved her hand with satisfaction, and went down with the maid to freshen up and eat!
Concubine Chang was puzzled in her heart, stopped Mingyue, and said angrily, "Niangniang is good-natured, don't kick your nose too much, don't forget that you are a person who makes mistakes now!"
"Dare to offend the princess, let the prince know that he will not spare you!"
Mingyue gave her a flying eye, and the original owner Wang Mingyue and Concubine Chang didn't interfere with the river water, so they didn't want to fight with her!
chuckled, "I didn't make a mistake, the prince and the mother understand in their hearts, I advise my sister to be nosy!"
Seeing her turn around and go out, Concubine Chang said angrily, "Niangniang, look at it, this princess is afraid that she is not crazy about gains and losses, how dare she be so arrogant!"
The other concubines also had a lot of discussions.
The princess had something on her mind, and she didn't want to entangle with them more, so she waved her hand and said, "Okay, you all go down!"
