Chapter 249: Jiang of Taifu Mansion
was looked at by the eldest prince with such eyes, Tang Shuyi was almost disgusted to death. Originally, Xiao Huai said in the letter that they should not act rashly with the eldest prince, and she planned to listen to it. She doesn't want to engage in intrigue and intrigue every day.
But if she didn't do something now, she couldn't swallow the breath in her heart. Again. If she didn't let the eldest prince get into trouble, maybe he could do something. A drunkard like him doesn't have a high moral bottom line.
When she returned to the Hou Mansion, she called Steward Zhao over and asked, "How is Concubine Liang now?" ”
"During this time, Concubine Liang has been in her palace and has been closed." Steward Zhao said.
Tang Shuyi thought for a while, "Send a message to Concubine Liang, saying that we found out a clue that on the day the second prince died, the people around the eldest prince appeared in the Xishan area. ”
Steward Zhao was stunned for a moment after hearing this, and then answered yes and left without asking anything. Tang Shuyi smiled, Steward Zhao is really a good subordinate.
She just wants to use Liang Guifei to deal with the eldest prince, anyway, neither of them is a good person, and both of them have a grudge against the Yongning Marquis Mansion, so let them fight, the more fierce the fight, the better.
At this time, Xiao Yuzhu came over, with fine sweat on her forehead. Tang Shuyi pulled her to her side, wiped her sweat with a handkerchief, and asked, "What are you playing?" ”
"Shuttlecock kicking." Xiao Yuzhu said with a smile.
Tang Shuyi also smiled, ancient women paid attention to quiet and elegant, but she felt that it was good to exercise more, at least she was healthy, and she could run fast when she encountered danger.
"Whatever you want for lunch, let the kitchen prepare." Tang Shuyi asked.
Xiao Yuzhu reported two dishes, and Tang Shuyi asked Cuiyun to talk to the kitchen.
"Alas!" Xiao Yuzhu sighed, "The two of us are eating, and it is not as lively as before." ”
This is thinking about her two brothers, and Tang Shuyi also thinks about her two sons, so she said: "It is estimated that I can come back during the New Year, and then our family will be reunited for the New Year." ”
Xiao Yuzhu remembered that she could be with her father during the Chinese New Year this year, and her eyes narrowed together happily.
..........
Liang Guifei has stayed in the palace since the last time, crying in the imperial study and begging the emperor to avenge the second prince, and has not gone out. The emperor said at the time that he would come to see her when he was free, but he never came. There were rumors in the palace that Concubine Liang had fallen out of favor.
Concubine Liang has been in the palace for many years, so she naturally has many eyes and ears, although she stays at home, she is clear about the situation outside. At this moment, she was sitting on the brocade couch in her usual clothes, listening to her personal palace maid's report:
"I heard that the eldest princess invited Mrs. Yongning Hou to the Grand Prince's Mansion, and after the queen got the news, she invited her sister-in-law, Mrs. Zhang, into the palace, probably wanting to marry with the Yongning Marquis Mansion."
Liang Guifei snorted after hearing this, "All of them are well calculated, but it depends on whether the emperor agrees." ”
"I want the eldest prince to marry the eldest daughter of the Marquis of Yongning, and the third prince does not have a suitable heir to marry the Marquis of Yongning." The palace maid said.
Liang Guifei leaned on the brocade couch and said lazily: "The third prince does not have a suitable heir, but the queen's family has!" ”
"That.... How do we do that? The palace maid asked.
Liang Guifei looked at the window, the osmanthus tree outside the window was blooming just right, and she said: "Do nothing, watch them die by themselves." ”
At this time, a little eunuch ran in, knelt down and said, "Concubine, the slave just went out to receive the moon and was stuffed with a letter. ”
Liang Guifei frowned slightly, "Present it." ”
The little eunuch raised her hands high and handed over the letter, Liang Guifei took the letter, opened it and looked at it carefully, after reading it, she picked up the teacup in her hand and fell to the ground with a bang, "The palace knows that it is him, and I know that he hurt my son." ”
The people in the room knelt on the ground and were silent.
I heard Liang Guifei say again: "I didn't want to tell that incident so early, but they want to die early, so let's die." ”
"Ask Xia to stay, and the rest will go out."
Ask Xia is Liang Guifei's personal palace maid, she stood still and didn't move, and after the palace maids and eunuchs in the house went out, she went over and closed the door, then walked to Liang Guifei's side, and said in a low voice: "Niangniang, you command." ”
Concubine Liang turned her head slightly to her and whispered: "Let people go to the Yongning Hou Mansion to spread the message, Mrs. Hou wants to use the palace, it's okay, but she has to cooperate." ”
"Yes."
Asked Xia to answer the voice and went out, Liang Guifei leaned on the brocade couch and said slowly: "The show is about to begin." ”
Tang Shuyi was stunned for a moment when he heard Steward Zhao's report that someone in the Liang Mansion asked to see him, and then understood. Although Liang Jian'an died, and the people of the Liang family were also beaten back to their hometowns, after all, Liang Guifei was still in the palace, and the Liang family would definitely stay in Shangjing.
"Invite someone here." Tang Shuyi said.
Steward Zhao answered and went out, and after a while, he walked in with a grandmother in her forties. The grandmother respectfully saluted Tang Shuyi, "Mrs. Hou is blessed with Jin'an." ”
Tang Shuyi snorted, "Get up and sit down and talk back." ”
The grandmother got up, sat down on the small pestle on the side, and then said, "The lady in the palace asked the slave maid to come to see Mrs. Hou." ”
"Well, I know, let's just say something." Tang Shuyi said.
"Niangniang said that if Madame wants to use her, she must cooperate." Mama said.
Tang Shuyi smiled, "What if I don't cooperate?" ”
"Niangniang said that if Mrs. Hou doesn't cooperate, she won't be able to see a good show."
Tang Shuyi sat there silent for a while before saying, "How do you want me to cooperate?" ”
"Slave maid, tell a story to Madame first." Mama said.
"Okay." Tang Shuyi put on a deaf look.
"There is a big family, and Zhong Mingding is very rich. The eldest son of this family has a daughter, who was born with a beautiful face and a beautiful appearance, and has been intelligent since she was a child. The lord of this family saw that his daughter was so outstanding, so he carefully cultivated it, so that she could be sent to the palace in the future to win a better future for the family.
But this daughter is happy with her cousin, who has been a childhood sweetheart since childhood, and that cousin is also happy with her. This young lady is destined to be sent to the palace in the future, and she will not be able to be with her cousin. But the two had a deep friendship and couldn't be separated, and then the two thought of a way, the cousin cheated to death, and then found an opportunity to enter the palace as a guard, so that the two could see each other often. ”
Mama picked up the cup and took a sip of tea when she said this, Tang Shuyi was intrigued by this story, so she asked, "What about later." ”
"Later," Mama continued, "Later, this young lady was sent to the palace, and the cousin also entered the palace as a guard after his death, and the two of them got what they wanted." It's just that once the two behaved intimately, and they were bumped into by another concubine in the palace, and the two were in a panic all day.
But the good thing is that the concubine and the young lady usually have a close relationship and did not tell them about it. But the two were still afraid, and the concubine was favored and the prince was also smart and clever, and the young lady was jealous. Later, he conspired with his cousin to drug the concubine, and then the cousin and the concubine were found out by the emperor..."
Needless to say, Tang Shuyi also understood.
I heard Mama say again: "This young lady's surname is Jiang, Jiang from Taifu's mansion,"
