Chapter 100: Dirt Behind the Scenes
Celebrate the collection of more than 3,000, hereby add more!
The price of rouge gouache can be divided into three, six, nine and so on, the more delicate and fragrant the price, the more expensive it is, such as the one used in poetry, I am afraid that I can't get it from two or three taels of silver.
A maid actually used this kind of incense powder, and no one would believe it when she said it, probably it was rewarded by the Meng family, right? There are not many mistakes, so Su Shi will ask Meng Shi if there are many there, and ask her for some.
And Meng herself understands that she has never appreciated the poetry and rhyme of rouge gouache, she has always been a high-minded and arrogant, most of the time when she has nothing to do, she is sad and sad, where will she pay attention to what clothing and food, and talented women can't see it, it's too vulgar!
If it weren't for the fact that Dongli suddenly mentioned the appearance of poetry and rhyme today, and the rouge gouache used was also of the highest quality, she probably wouldn't have noticed that the personal maid next to her was already old, and her appearance was not bad, and she already had some different thoughts.
"Reply to the words of the two aunts." Shiyun knew how vicious her master was behind her back, so she quickly knelt down and replied: "This rouge is not rewarded by our aunt, but by the slave maid who went to deliver scriptures to the eldest young lady last time, and the eldest young lady gave it." ”
The three concubines were stunned at the same time, the eldest young lady? Lu's?
"When are you going to deliver scriptures to the eldest young lady?" Meng Shi raised his thin willow eyebrows, his long nails pinched his palms, and he was extremely angry in his heart, his maid actually thought about competing with him, it was really embarrassing! "Why can't I remember what scriptures I have there for you to deliver?"
There are a lot of poetry collections and other things in Meng's place, and there are really no scriptures.
"Yes, yes......" Shiyun's eyes were uncertain, and she couldn't say it when she stumbled in her mouth, which aroused Meng's suspicion more and more, this cheap maid must have wanted to seduce the prince early in the morning, and when she was discovered, she took out the young lady to talk about it, could it be that they could still go to the young lady to confront her?
"If there's anything, just say it." Luo looked at her with a smile, "Could it be that the eldest young master asked you to bring the scriptures to the eldest young lady?" ”
Meng and Su both looked at Luo in confusion, what does this mean? Help Shiyun find a reason?
Luo Shi just smiled, with an incomprehensible light flashing in his eyes, staring at Shiyun: "I heard that when the prince was injured a few days ago, the eldest young master often brought some scriptures and the like back to Aunt Cui, which is said to be to pray for the blessing of the prince, and you also took such an errand?" ”
The matter involved the big house, and several women suddenly became serious, probably except for Nangong Yue's tendon, everyone could see that the big house was unwilling to be lonely, and they would go to pray for blessings because Nangong Xiao was injured? It's almost as good as cursing him to die early.
"Say!" Meng Shi was almost mad, the first thing she hated was Mo Dongli who was pressing on top of her head, and the second was the bad man, this actually dared to collude with the people in the big house behind her back?
"Auntie's life!" Shiyun saw that Luo Shi actually knew those things, and her face turned pale with fright: "The slave didn't do anything to be sorry for my aunt!" It's just that the eldest young master accidentally sprained his foot that day, and the slave maid happened to see it, so he went to help, and the eldest young master asked the slave and maid to send the scroll of scriptures to the eldest young lady. It's just that he didn't say that Nangong Fan did something to her, and Lu Shi's subsequent cold face said those words to her in private after rewarding the incense powder.
"That's a strange thing." Luo Shi blinked a pair of beautiful eyes, and looked at Shiyun who was kneeling on the ground in puzzlement: "The eldest young master is also the master, it is impossible that no one is following him, why did you ask a personal big girl next to the second aunt to deliver something?" Isn't it, is there something wrong with your eldest and youngest masters? No mistakes, not a lot of words"
Meng's face turned pale, and Shiyun suddenly kowtowed with a pale face: "There are no slaves, there are absolutely no slaves!" "She doesn't look down on the eldest young master, she is not as good as the prince of the world, and her status is far behind, she has no reason to give up here to please a concubine.
Meng's face was not good-looking, and he said to Luo Shi stiffly: "Even if my maid behaves inappropriately, she will definitely not do such a shameless thing!" I'll naturally ask about this matter today, but since it's my girl, I won't worry about my two sisters! ”
"We don't have that much to spare." Luo Shi sneered very facelessly, and touched the bead flower on his sideburns: "Sister Su, let's go, didn't you still say that you want to go to my place to discuss the Qixi Festival?" Kindness is regarded as a donkey's liver and lungs, and we are not disliked here. ”
Seeing the two of them leave like willows, Meng Shi took a breath, turned around and slapped Shiyun's face: "! Don't think I don't know what you're thinking about, and you want to serve the prince? Don't think about it in this life! ”
Shiyun just covered her face and cried, while screaming for wrongdoing, but there was a hidden resentment in her eyes when she lowered her head.
Until he got into the carriage, Dongli was still staring at Nangong Xiao's face with great interest, and finally Nangong Xiao couldn't bear it anymore and touched his face: "Do I have flowers on my face?" That's a view. ”
"You're much more beautiful than flowers." Dong Liang shook his head and sighed: "It's worthless to spend a lot, it's all over the garden, whoever likes it picks it up, no one cares except for the garden, the prince is different, even if he doesn't have that mind, there are people rushing up one after another, but it's much more attractive than the flower." ”
Nangong Xiao pulled his wife over without a red heart on his face, pinched her face and leaned up to kiss her, but was pushed away by Dongli all of a sudden, and couldn't help but say aggrievedly: "People can't grab it, I sent it to you in a hurry, you still dislike it." ”
No face, no skin! Dong Li rolled his eyes, why did so many people hit up without long eyes? "There's something wrong with the smell of that Shiyun today."
"How?" Nangong Xiao didn't know much about women's things, let alone something on a maid he couldn't even remember what she looked like: "But what's wrong?" ”
"That fragrance ......" Dong Li touched her nose, remembering the rich smell on Shiyun's body, not a floral fragrance, nor a common spice, it seemed to be a little astringent, but she couldn't say: "I don't feel very comfortable, this girl was brought by Meng's side, or was she matched by the house later?" ”
He really didn't pay attention to this, Nangong Xiao was a little dazed, these women he was just acting on the spot, and he used them as smoke bombs to hide people's ears, who still remembered who the maids around them were. "I don't know about these, just go back and call the chief manager to ask."
Dong Li also put this topic aside for the time being: "Aunt Cui, it's the first time I've seen it, it's really a beauty, no wonder Hou Ye is so favored." Not to mention men, even women will feel their eyes light up when they see it. ”
Nangong Xiao's expression was not good, Dong Li subconsciously stopped his mouth, and always felt that Nangong Xiao was very unkind to this Cui family, unlike Aunt Zhao, who had no respect and would not be too targeted.
After being silent for a while, Nangong Xiao suddenly opened his mouth: "Cui's is the younger sister of Cui Guifei, and the saint originally wanted to point out his father as a flat wife, but it was his grandmother who insisted on opposing it, and the queen mother did not approve of it, so she changed her mind." But she had to enter the Zhenbei Hou Mansion, and would rather be a concubine than change her mind. Then he glanced at Dongli with an obscure look: "It didn't take long for the house to spread the happy pulse, the eldest brother is said to be a premature baby, and he was born in more than seven months." ”
Dong Li gasped, it was actually like this, the sister of the dignified concubine, why would she rather be a concubine than enter the door, it was because she was pregnant before marriage, and she had already been secretly married. What kind of premature birth, I'm afraid this Aunt Cui already had a body of two or three months before she entered the door, right? There are many mistakes, no wonder the old lady doesn't treat her, this era for this kind of woman who lost her virginity before marriage, she didn't directly expose the matter, but she was worried that it would ruin the reputation of Zhenbei Hou.
But this father-in-law is too, Dong Liang frowned, he can do such a ridiculous thing, his opinion of him is really too high before.
"My father wanted to raise my eldest brother in my mother's name, but my grandmother and mother stubbornly refused." Nangong Xiao's face was bitter, I'm afraid that in his father's heart, the position of this son should belong to Nangong Fan, right? There are a lot of mistakes, otherwise they would not have connived at the actions of Cui's mother and son over the years.
If Nangong Fan is raised under the name of the Huang family, he will become the eldest son, and he will naturally be the best candidate for the prince. Dong Li suddenly despised this father-in-law, and he had the ability to calm down the romantic account he provoked, and hand over the bitter fruit to a woman to face, what kind of thing!
It turned out that Aunt Cui almost became a flat wife, and Nangong Fan was only a little bit away from being the son of the world, one step away, no wonder the Cui family has refused to give up all these years.
However, as long as the Queen Mother and the old lady are still in the day, I am afraid that their plans will not come true. Although the Marquis of Zhenbei is ridiculous, the position of the prince has been set for so many years, and Nangong Xiao's prestige in the army is no longer weaker than him, and he should also know the consequences of rashly changing the prince, so he will not come to this point.
"Mother, when she gave birth to me, she had a difficult birth, injured her body, and will never be able to give birth again." Nangong Xiao seemed to be shocked enough, and threw a bomb again, "Even I, when I was born, I was extremely weak, and I almost couldn't survive, it was my grandmother who hugged me and sent me to the palace to beg the Queen Mother, and the doctors took a lot of effort to save it." I grew up with the Queen Mother until I was ten years old, and then I really returned to the Zhenbei Hou Mansion. ”
Dong Li covered his mouth with one hand, and looked at this man who had no shape in the past with sympathy and pity: "The mother who delivered the baby at the beginning......
"Dead." Nangong Xiao smiled mockingly, "On the night I went back, I accidentally fell into the well and drowned because I ate too much wine." ”
Kill somebody to do away with a witness! Dong Li listened in shock, but she didn't expect that what she had only experienced on TV before would be played out around her. Obviously, Huang's family is difficult, and the fetus is inherently weak, and it was deliberately murdered by others, in order to make it impossible for their mother and child to live.
Who are the people who benefit? If Nangong Xiao is not successful, and the Huang family, who is the main mother, will not be able to have children, naturally only Nangong Fan, where the Cui family is located, will remain.
Such a clear matter, didn't Zhenbei Hou pursue it at all? Or is it because that woman is his beloved, so whatever he does is bearable?
