Chapter 177 Greed
"Xiangxia, why don't you take someone to the warehouse of the He Mansion to see how He Da helps the victims?" Zhao Shuang then looked at He Yuqi and asked, "He Meiren, in the future, Xiangxia will be in charge of the palace. Do you want to stay, or go back to your Shangshu Mansion?"

He Yuqi bit her lip in embarrassment, and thought for a moment, "I am a concubine... since I have married into the palace, I am the prince's man... I will not leave."

"That's what you said," Zhao Shuang glanced outside the house, "I think there are too many servants in Meifangyuan. Since you leave three or four rations for each courtyard, your Meifang There can only be three maidservants in the courtyard. The original maidservants in the palace happened to be three people, you companion maidservants and mother-in-law... just follow Xiangxia back to Shangshu Mansion, and Nanny Rong also goes back to Weiyang Palace. Don't waste your rations in the palace."

"Wang...Wang Concubine..." He Yuqi looked aggrieved, unable to speak.

In the past, her mother and the Duke's wife had told her that the eldest princess thought she was noble and easy-going, and she didn't like to take care of the affairs of the house, but why did she break all her wings just after she came back?

She gave birth to a child and even changed her temper?He Yuqi secretly slandered, and suddenly felt that this was an opportunity. The princess in the past was easy-going and gentle, and she was naturally likable. Now she...to put it bluntly, like a dominatrix, how could the prince still like it?future……

"He Meiren has objections?" Zhao Shuang finished his lunch and made a gesture to signal everyone to back down.

"No, no, my concubine has no objection." He Yuqi quickly denied it, bowed his head and saluted with everyone, and retreated one after another.

In the afternoon, the weather is slightly cool.

Zhao Shuang was sitting in front of the window studying the chess game when he saw a person poking his head at the door, and when he took a closer look, it turned out to be He Yuqi.

She just walked to the gate of Fanshuang Palace, walked around and came back.

Nanny Chang also noticed, so she walked to the entrance of the hall and said loudly, "He Meiren, what are you doing sneaking around here?"

"Mother, don't be angry, this concubine has no malicious intentions," He Yuqi hurriedly lowered his head when he saw Nanny Chang, and said, "This concubine just wants to see the concubine..."

"Didn't you see it just now?" Chang Momo was annoyed when she saw this woman, thinking that she hadn't been scolded enough, she had just been slashed, and then came to find someone to shave her.

"My concubine wants to..."

Before He Yuqi finished speaking, a cold voice came from inside the door.

"Nurse Chang, let her in." Listening to the conversation at the door, Zhao Shuang didn't raise her eyes, still staring at the chessboard.

"Wang... Wangfei." The woman in green came in shyly, bowed to Zhao Shuang again, then moved around there, hesitating to speak.

"Nurse Chang, go down." After waiting for a while, Zhao Shuang waved to the woman in the flower jacket.

"Yes." Nanny Chang understood, glared at He Yuqi, and then exited the hall.

"Just say what you have to say." Zhao Shuang raised her head and cast an impatient glance at the woman in green.

He Yuqi is young and pretty, but her hair is combed shiny. This outfit really doesn't match her age.

"Princess, concubine... I want to ask the king... when will the lord come back?" He Yuqi glanced at her quietly, and stood five steps away from her nervously, not daring to go forward.

"The enemy is now, Shangjing is trapped, and I can't get enough to eat. Do you still care about when Yang Xuan will come back?" Zhao Shuang picked up a white chip and put it down again, frowning and looking at the woman in green.

"Princess forgive me," He Yuqi suddenly knelt down on the ground with a "plop", kowtowed to her and said, "The things my mother and queen mother instigated me to do in the past, my concubine... this is helping Aunt Xiangxia, Go and move all the things in the palace back..."

"No need, Xiangxia took Hu Xiaowei's men, and He Da dared not give up the amount." Zhao Shuang looked down at the chess game again, as if he didn't want to see this woman.

Seeing that she ignored her, the kneeling woman suddenly sobbed.

"Princess, I know that I have done a lot of wrong things this year. I offended Nanny Chang and the little sisters in the mansion, but it was not my intention." I just want to stay in the palace and be an ordinary concubine, serving the prince and concubine..."

"I don't need your service," Zhao Shuang glanced at her lightly, and said coldly, "As for the prince...he doesn't need it either."

He Yuqi was stunned, and wiped off his weeping makeup to reveal his original complexion, "Princess, I heard that you gave birth to a little prince in the west of Yunnan. Don't mention how happy you are. These days, I even made some children with my own hands. I want to dedicate my clothes, shoes and socks to the little prince."

"No need," Zhao Shuang twitched the white piece with two fingers, "The little prince will not return to Shangjing for the time being."

"Princess," He Yuqi cried until the makeup on the corners of his eyes was taken off, and he looked at her pitifully and said, "I am just a little woman, just like Lianwu, Xiaofang and Xiaoyuan, who just ask for a meal from the palace. In the future... it will never threaten the status of the princess."

There was a light rain outside the window, hitting the leaves in late autumn. The fallen leaves on the ground were swept away in the morning, and they were thick again in the afternoon.

At this time, He Yuqi showed loyalty regardless of his image, and it didn't seem like he was lying, but Zhao Shuang remained unmoved, and said with a calm face, "He Meiren, you are different from Lianwu and the others."

"Same! Same!" He Yuqi didn't understand why the princess was so kind to Lian Wu, but she was so critical of herself. Is it just because of her noble background? "My concubine, you are the concubine of the Great Zhou Dynasty. I am just a little daughter of Shang Shufu. In the future, I will definitely serve the concubine and the little prince with all my heart."

"Look, Lianwu, Xiaofang and Xiaoyuan... have you ever asked me when the prince will come back?" Zhao Shuang looked at the water drops on the eaves outside the window, thoughtfully.

"No...no." He Yuqi didn't understand why she asked.

"You have greed for the lord, but they don't. That's the difference." Zhao Shuang withdrew his gaze, turned to look at the woman in green, "You said, in the future, you will serve me and the little lord wholeheartedly. I ask you, If this palace does not allow you to serve the prince, will you still willingly serve this palace and the little prince?"

"Wang... Wangfei..." The woman in green opened her eyes wide in horror, looking at the regent princess above, she couldn't even shed tears, "I am not greedy, I just love my husband, Is this wrong?"

From He Yuqi's point of view, Lianwu and the rest of them don't think about making progress all day long, they just know how to eat and wait to die, even though their dancing skills are ruined and their bodies are out of shape, Xiao Fang and Xiao Yuan can't even comb their hair, let alone make up. No, she is not a qualified concubine at all.

In the past year, I have tried to mention them and let them dress up, but it has no effect at all. Lianwu and the others even laughed at me for painting their eyebrows and eyes every day, but no one cares about their beautiful clothes.

Now she suddenly hesitated, this... Could it be that she is really wrong?I am a daughter of Shangshu Mansion. After entering the palace, I worked hard to manage it. Is it wrong to want to be a qualified concubine?
