Chapter 422: Concubine Shu is kind-hearted
Recently, I've been a little more diligent, but it's just for the Yao beauty in the side hall.
That Yao Meiren was pampered and arrogant, and she had a lot of disputes, she looked at Yao Meiren unpleasantly before, just thinking that she was nothing to be angry about, but now Yao Meiren is pregnant!
If it's a girl, it's fine, but if it's a boy......
As soon as she thought of this, Concubine Shu's expression became more and more ugly.
Seeing that Concubine Shu didn't speak for a while, the women around her who wanted to please her tried to liven up the atmosphere: "It's a great joy to be happy in the palace, the mother is benevolent, and the beauty of Yao is really gratifying." β
The woman was stupid, and she wanted to pat herself on the back, but she saw that the concubine's face was getting worse and worse.
Besides, everyone knows that Yao Meiren is in her palace, but now that Yao Meiren is pregnant, she has no movement in her abdomen, but isn't she clearly telling everyone that she is not favored?
Although this is a fact, it is one thing to know that it is one thing, but it is another thing to show it naked in front of everyone!
Concubine Shu felt that she couldn't hold her face, and she couldn't care about pulling others in, so she got up and said, "Sister, Yao Meiren is pregnant, and the concubine feels relieved and wants to go back to see her." β
She couldn't stay in this palace anymore, she only felt that everyone looked at her with sympathy, which made her crazy.
The smile on Concubine Shu's face almost froze, and Concubine Liu Guifei only glanced at her to understand what she meant, because she nodded and said, "Concubine Shu is kind-hearted, then go." β
Anyway, this woman can't help here, but it's as annoying as a flower butterfly, so it's better to leave.
Seeing that Concubine Liu agreed, Concubine Shu got up and saluted and left.
And those women who want to please the concubine are looking at each other, as soon as she leaves, who else will she please go?
The women of those families are all thoughtful, although the second prince has already married a wife, but there is still the position of the side concubine, they originally wanted to use their brains to look good in front of the concubine.
It's just that now that everyone is gone, nine times out of ten, their wishes are going to be frustrated.
For a while, some people were happy and some were worried.
And these people are obviously not the only ones who are worried.
Since entering the hall, Mrs. Li's face has not been very good, even when she talks to people, her smile is also strong.
Shi Miaoyu was talking to Lin Yanran before, and accidentally saw her come in, and it was a little strange after just glancing at it.
In the past, Mrs. Li couldn't wait to take Li Rumei with her wherever she went, but now it is rare for her to come.
When she thought of this, she heard a woman whispering nearby, "She deserves it." β
It was Zhang Shilang's wife who spoke, and the husbands of the two were not in harmony, and the two ladies did not have a good face for each other when they saw each other.
This was said to Mrs. Liu.
Mrs. Liu obviously also knew some inside information, because she said: "Isn't it, how have you seen someone in the world push her daughter into the fire pit, and now that this has happened, it can be seen that it is retribution." β
Shi Miaoyu sat close to them, and intuitively felt that something was going on, so she asked softly, "Aunt Liu, are you talking about the Li family?"
Hearing Shi Miaoyu's question, Mrs. Zhang immediately wanted to speak, but was stopped by Mrs. Liu, and laughed quietly: "The princess is still young, don't listen to these dirty things." β
Those things are embarrassing to say, so don't let Shi Miaoyu hear it.
Hearing this, Shi Miaoyu immediately smiled and said: "Aunt knows, I and the Miss Li family are also handkerchiefs, even if there is something really wrong, you also said it, don't make me feel at ease." β
Hearing her say this, Lin Yanran on the side also looked over and asked, "But what happened to the Li family?"
Seeing that their mother and daughter were a little curious, Mrs. Liu simply didn't hide it, sighed and said: "Isn't it a crime, then Mrs. Li promised her daughter a family affair before, do you know who made the promise?"
Lin Yanran didn't know about this, and when she heard it suddenly, she was shocked, glanced at Mrs. Li who looked bad in the distance, and then turned around and asked, "How can she do this, isn't Li Rumei her biological daughter?"
I have heard of the housewife of a high-ranking family, if she has a bad heart and pushes her concubine out to be a concubine, I have never heard of such a pit for her own daughter!
Shi Miaoyu knew about this, so she was not surprised, she just wanted to know why they said that Mrs. Li deserved it.
So Shi Miaoyu said: "Although there are parents in the world, Mrs. Li has indeed gone too far. β
The people in Beijing all want fame, but they will do whatever it takes for the sake of profit, and they do not hesitate to sacrifice their own daughters. But the problem is that the Marquis of Changping has a weak temperament, and he will not give the Li family much benefit at all.
However, for the sake of that little profit, they promised Li Rumei without hesitation, which shows that Li Rumei has no status in their hearts.
When Mrs. Liu on the side heard this, she sighed and said, "This is not only excessive, it is simply ruthless." β
"Not really, but their family didn't get any good. Then how can Miss Li be so easy to handle? Whoever is promised such a family affair, I am afraid that she will not be obedient and obedient. So Miss Li had already secretly escaped a few days ago!"
Mrs. Zhang had a playful expression on her face, she didn't feel very sorry for this Miss Li, but she was happy when she saw Mrs. Li deflated.
Shi Miaoyu asked in surprise, "She ran away?"
Some time ago, Mrs. Li also brought Li Rumei to the door, and after only a few days, she actually ran away?
Mrs. Zhang nodded again and again, and whispered: "The princess doesn't know, but the Li family has dispatched all the people to find someone, but they are afraid of offending the Marquis of Changping, so they are looking for someone quietly." However, in the huge capital, a little girl is easy to find, and now they are like mud cows into the sea, and they cannot be found everywhere. Now that the daughter is running away, the chickens are flying and the eggs are beating, so it can be seen that this is retribution. β
When she said this, she still looked at Mrs. Li, Shi Miaoyu looked in the direction she pointed, and sure enough, she saw that Mrs. Li's face was pale that the thick foundation on her face couldn't hide.
Seeing this, the corners of Shi Miaoyu's lips hooked slightly, she didn't expect Li Rumei to do such a thing.
But it's okay to run away, after all, what kind of virtue is that Changping Hou, she knows, if she really marries, it will be Li Rumei's death.
Just thinking of this, she was a little worried, Li Rumei was a little girl, she had no long things, she escaped alone, and she didn't know how to survive now. Her heart is simple, so don't be deceived again.
Thinking of this, Shi Miaoyu made up her mind that when she went back, she would find someone to look for her, find that Li Rumei, give her some help, and at least ensure her safety.
Shi Miaoyu didn't answer anymore when she thought about it, but the ladies were still quietly discussing, and they were all ridiculing Mrs. Li.
"I can bear to marry my daughter to a bad old man in her fifties as a concubine, this kind of person, it is better for Mrs. Ben to stay away in the future. β
When a few of them spoke, they were still restraining their voices at first, but although this hall is large, it is in a hall, if there are really people who are interested in listening, where will they not be able to hear it?
So after a while, you can see the gloomy look on Mrs. Li's face.
But her husband's position is not high, and she really loses money in doing things, so Mrs. Li can only pretend not to know, but her face is getting whiter and whiter.
If it weren't for the palace banquet tonight, she wouldn't be able to leave anyway, for fear that she would have slipped away early.
It wasn't until a singing rang out outside the hall that everyone stopped discussing.
"The crown princess has arrivedβ"
The sharp voice of the inner eunuch sounded, and the next moment the crown princess walked in first.
Behind her was a woman in a vermilion palace dress, who was Princess Qingluan.
"Say hello to the concubine. β
The crown princess was the first to salute, and the ladies around her also saluted her.
Liu Guifei raised her hand with a smile and said, "No courtesy, you are a person with a body now, take a seat." β
When she said this, she motioned to the palace people to go over and help the princess.
The crown princess thanked Liu Guifei, and motioned for all the women to get up, and then said with a smile: "The princess is late, please don't be surprised by the concubine." β
Concubine Liu's temperament has always been good, and when she heard the princess's words at this time, she bent her lips and smiled: "You are not feeling well, it is okay to come later." I heard the doctor say that I had a cold again, but does it matter?"
Hearing this, the crown princess smiled and thanked her and said: "There is a mother and concubine Lao who are concerned, and the sons are fine, but the weather is cold, and they will be fine after drinking two patches of medicine." β
Some time ago, she had been diagnosed by the imperial doctor. Naturally, this was diagnosed and treated at the suggestion of the crown princess, and there was a difference of nearly two months from the child in her womb.
The imperial doctor was bought by himself, and only said that the princess's birth was unstable, and her body was weak and a little fat, so she saw that her belly was bigger.
The crown prince and the princess are not very affectionate, giving her decent, but not spoiled, so it is not very clear what the princess's body is.
After listening to what the imperial doctor said, he didn't doubt it. In addition, the crown princess gave birth to a daughter twice in a row, so the prince did not have much hope for the current one in her womb.
But in the end, it was the child of the concubine, and the prince also ordered people to serve him.
The crown princess concealed the matter without any danger, but now she has stabilized her mind, and she is slow when she replies.
Liu Guifei was not close to her, but just a symbolic question, knowing that she was fine, she nodded and talked about the things next to her with a smile.
From beginning to end, she didn't talk to Princess Qingluan, who had become a side concubine.
Princess Qingluan lowered her eyes and stood behind the crown princess, looking a little resentful.
Originally, when she was a princess, where was not the focus? But now that she is married to the prince and has become the prince's side concubine, now on such an occasion, there is not even a seat!
Because even if it is the prince's side concubine, it is also a concubine. And on such a palace banquet occasion, she only deserves to stand behind the crown princess!
Princess Qingluan clenched her fists and stared at the back of the crown princess, hoping to stare out of a hole.
She wasn't favored.
In other words, such a situation is what she has to do now.
Uda's bastard didn't allow her to have sex with the prince, and she could only excuse herself from being unwell. But once or twice, three or four times, the prince was already angry. Because she is the princess of the Northern Desert, she has endured a lot.
However, the prince has no shortage of women, and if she doesn't let her, the prince will go to someone else.
This time and again, she is almost the same invisible person in the East Palace now, and no one takes her seriously.
It's just that the crown princess is still pregnant!
On the wedding night, the prince stayed at the princess's place, and when the imperial doctor diagnosed, he said that the princess's pregnancy was counted as that night.
In other words, if she can have sex with the prince smoothly that night, then this child may be in her womb!
