After crossing, I was dragged by the bamboo horse and became a queen

Chapter 403: A Well Married Girl
Shangguan Jing didn't intend to meddle in other people's business.Although it was indeed unlucky for Zhou Baolin to have a former master like Chen Baolin at the stall, Shangguan Jing was not in charge of this business.

After all, she is not a member of the emperor's harem, but a princess, the kind who does not have the power of the six palaces.The father-in-law's concubine is not under her management either, so she naturally has no reason to intervene in these messy matters.

"One day it will fall on your head." Shangguan Yuan who was sorting the package said, "When you get the authority of the sixth palace, everything that happens behind the gate of the third palace will be under your control."

"Hey!" Shangguanjing sighed loudly while staring at Xiaoying packing some of Shangguan Yuan's favorite imperial desserts: "Think about it carefully, why do you think I'm tossing around! Wouldn't it be better to save dim sum? I I was proud before that my Jingheng never wanted to marry a concubine. If he can keep his original intention, then I can worry less about it in the future! But if I get the authority of the Sixth Palace, there is nothing less to worry about. , You said that I am full and full!"

"What's the difference?" Shangguan Yuan smiled and replied: "Taking care of other people's concubines is the same as taking care of your own husband's concubine! At least you don't have to be so idle."

"Yes..." Shangguanjing sighed with a complicated expression while fiddling with various small objects on the table that Shangguanyuan was going to take out of the palace: "I'm not Jing Heng's concubine, and I don't want to grab men from me, so I don't worry. But...these women are still the elder sister's competitors, sharing the same man with the elder sister. You talk about this trouble, plus and minus, I'm about to help the elder sister manage the back house .”

"What nonsense are you talking about!" Shangguan Yuan shook her head and sighed, "This harem does not belong to Eldest Sister, it will be yours in the future. Eldest Sister...she will never be the master of the harem. Even after a while, she According to your previous idea, the courtiers will never tolerate her being the lord of the six palaces after crossing Ming Road and re-entering the palace. At most, she is just a favorite concubine. Even yourself is a member of the concubine family, the emperor's woman With so much, she might not be able to protect herself in the fierce harem battle in the future, so what can she do? Uncle and aunt want you to take power so urgently, and they also hope that you can take care of her."

"Forget it." Shangguanjing personally stuffed the delicate compact in her hand into Shangguanyuan's package: "Let's take one step at a time. This is where we are going. Why are we worrying so far away?"

"That's right. There are still so many things in front of you, let's not talk about the things that are far away." Shangguan Yuan nodded: "Just talk about today's Shujing Palace. You don't want to take care of it, but others may not want to drag you into the water. You listen to me , I saw that Chen Baolin walking around in the future, I really thought she was disgusting."

"Understood." Shangguan nodded quietly: "Anyway, I will move to the East Palace soon."

"Then you won't come here less often." Shangguan Yuan replied: "It is said that the east wall of the harem is closed, as if each gate is separate, but the east palace is still the imperial palace! Why don't you have to come here for the empress dowager , Empress Greetings? The servants of the Six Shang Bureau are all on duty here, and you have to send people here to handle things. At most, it’s just a self-supporting stove, and you don’t eat the food in the imperial dining room. How can you separate it from the side.”

"I can't be separated from here. On the other hand, the harem is really separated from me." Shangguan replied with a smile: "The Eastern Palace is my territory. I can return to the harem at any time to do business and say hello, but who wants to go?" I'm going to the East Palace, but I have to nod my head. No matter who you are, you can't just reach out to my territory."

"You're right." Shangguan Yuan smiled: "Although after moving to the East Palace, the chaos of the harem cannot be left behind, but it is indeed a lot of freedom. When the time comes, I will enter the palace to be your companion , and a lot more convenient.”

"I want my sister to stay with me in the palace often!" Shangguan Jing replied: "But after all, my sister still has her own life to live, so how can she spend all her time on me?"

"If you let me choose," Shangguan Yuan replied after a moment of silence: "It's much easier to be with you in the palace than in the Su family. In the Su family, there are two layers of elders on the head, and there are so many There are many brothers and sisters. Moreover, the Su family prides itself on being noble, and the family members are very arrogant. When living there, one must be cautious in every word and deed, otherwise either the elders will be unhappy or the peers will make jokes. If there are too many people, there will be more gossip. There’s never a time for peace of mind.”

"Isn't that how big families live like this?" Shangguan Jing tugged at Shangguan Yuan's sleeve and comforted, "Isn't it the same in our family! Fortunately, the second brother-in-law is still very good to you."

"He probably also thinks he is very good." Shangguan Yuan chuckled lightly, but there was no smile in his eyes, let alone the sweetness and tenderness of his lover: "Thinking about it, he is not bad, at least he has a good temper and is a womanizer." It’s also reassuring. Alas! I’m so confused, what do I tell you these things. Don’t worry about it, I’ll take care of it!”

Shangguan Jing looked into Shangguan Yuan's eyes, she actually understood Shangguan Yuan's words.Living in a big family like the Su family, Shangguan Yuan, as a grandson-in-law, has never had an easy time.

It is a rare holiday for her to come to the palace to accompany her younger sister.You can think about nothing, don't worry about whether the elders are happy, don't have to worry about your husband's mood, it seems to be far away from the annoying trivial matters in life.

For most of the women in this era, it seems that they get married in a beautiful way, and have a good marriage that the world envies, but the last days are almost the same.Trapped in the back house, day after day, I worked hard for my family, my man and my children, but my personal value was never recognized.They are just men's vassals, reproductive resources, tools for filial piety, housekeepers, nannies who take care of and educate children, and servants who handle all troublesome chores.

For men in this era, as long as there is something unsatisfactory in the family, it is good to blame the woman.For the women of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it seemed that they had no other choice but to live their lives with their eyes closed.

How can there be so many quiet years, but it is just a feather under the cover of gorgeous brocade.

"Second sister," Shangguan Jing smiled at Shangguan Yuan: "How about this, I will move to the East Palace in the future, and every two or three months, I will take you into the palace for a few days, and I also want you to accompany me. I know, this frequency will make Mrs. Su unhappy. You have to go home, I'm afraid I will cause trouble for you. "

"As long as you sit safely in the position of the princess, you will finally become the queen safely." Shangguan Yuan smiled and nodded Shangguanjing's nose: "She will not be unhappy! She may wish for it I come to the palace frequently to accompany you, the closer I am with you, the better."

　---Here is the dividing line of a good marriage in the secular sense--
　　In the standards of the Great Zhou Dynasty, the second elder sister was the kind of girl who married well. The Su family was noble, and a man in his forties had no children before he could marry a concubine. He didn't need to worry about the smoky back house. This is a good marriage bestowed by heaven, and the second sister should be grateful.

　　However, in fact, life has never been that simple, and marriage has never been defined by whether there is an affair or not.

　　The life of the second sister still makes her tired.From a man's point of view, this is a woman's hypocrisy, nothing but complaints.

　　But is this really the case?Does the seemingly beautiful wife really have such a comfortable life?Let men handle these so-called simple chores, are they willing?
