Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 340 Revenge
What Zhao Xifang said at the annual banquet was inevitably reported to Emperor Xuanzhi and Jiang Changning.

Emperor Xuanzhi sneered, "Fortunately, the Zhao family always regarded themselves as a scholarly family, but raised their daughter so uneducated."

"My servant heard that King Yu and Concubine Yu don't get along well, and now King Yu is more fond of the side concubine and wife in the mansion." Chang Youzhong said.

Emperor Xuanzhi pondered for a moment, and said: "Princess Yu is so unvirtuous, even if she wanted to serve King Yu, she would not do her best. I can't bear to see it. Now I specially reward a few maids to serve in Prince Yu's mansion."

Although there was no draft, but at the beginning of last year, a new batch of court ladies were recruited, all of whom were folk women.

Emperor Xuanzhi asked Chang Youzhong to select some good-looking ones and send them to Prince Yu's Mansion.

In Prince Yu's mansion, King Yu and Zhao Xifang were arguing, the eldest son was unwell, Fang Youting asked Zhao Xifang to bring the imperial physician to the mansion with a sign.

Zhao Xifang refused her invitation on the grounds that it would be unlucky to invite an imperial physician into the mansion during the Chinese New Year.

The eldest son had diarrhea for three days in a row, until he collapsed, Fang Youting sued before King Yu.

King Yu was furious and ordered someone to invite the imperial physician, who guarded the imperial physician and prescribed medicine for the eldest son.

After the eldest son took the medicine, he came to Zhao Xifang to settle the score, "Poison woman, do you want to kill my son?"

"My lord, my concubine has been wronged." Zhao Xifang did not admit that she deliberately did not help the eldest son to hire an imperial physician.

She explained eloquently: "Firstly, I was worried that it was Chinese New Year, and asking a doctor to get medicine would cause bad luck, which would damage the feng shui of the palace, and because the concubine Fang was vague, I thought that the eldest son was fine. "

King Yu was about to reprimand her, but the chief steward of the mansion was away, "My lord, someone is coming from the palace."

The couple hurriedly went out to meet the guests, and came to see off the eunuch of the maid, "Concubine Yu can't serve King Yu wholeheartedly, so His Majesty specially rewarded four maids to serve King Yu."

Zhao Xifang's eyes widened, what does it mean not to serve the prince wholeheartedly?When did she lose her mind?

King Yu thanked him, "Zheng Sangui, bring someone in."

"Yes, my lord." The chief steward, Zheng Sangui, took the four maids away.

King Yu looked at Zhao Xifang and said with a sneer, "Now you should know what it means to say that misfortune comes from your mouth."

Zhao Xifang was stunned, "What does the prince mean by this?"

"You are really an idiot." King Yu walked away in a huff.

Looking at King Yu's back, Zhao Xifang had resentment and hatred in her eyes. Emperor Xuanzhi suddenly rewarded the court lady to King Yu, and she guessed that what she said at the annual banquet was the cause of the trouble.

It's true that she caused trouble, but as her husband, King Yu didn't protect her at all, which really disappointed her.

The more Zhao Xifang thought about it, the more wronged she felt, and she returned to her natal home.

"You are a married person now, and you run to your mother's house all day long. If you say something, go back quickly." Zhao Wang urged.

"What's outrageous, I'm married, not sold to King Yu." Zhao Xifang said angrily.

Zhao Wang frowned, "Who are you getting angry with today?"

"I'm not losing my temper, I'm just panicking." Zhao Xifang said with a gloomy face, "The palace rewards the prince with four maids."

"You are Princess Yu, no matter how many people you add to your lord's side, it will not affect your status, so why do you have to argue with a few low-status court ladies?" Wang Zhao thought her daughter was jealous.

"I didn't argue with them, I. Forget it, mother, I'm hungry, let's pass on the meal." Zhao Xifang said wearily.

Zhao Wang asked the maid to pass on the meal, and she continued to persuade her daughter, "Fang'er, you always go back to your mother's house like this, it will damage your reputation."

"Mother, you used to expect me to go back to my mother's house often, but now you want to send Miao Yun to the palace to win the emperor's favor, so you don't want me anymore?" Zhao Xifang asked sarcastically.

Zhao Wangshi was silent, Zhao Xifang said again: "Not to mention that His Majesty won't let people enter the palace, even if people let people enter the palace, the queen will not let Miaoyun in."

"Why not?" Zhao Wang asked.

Hearing this question, Zhao Xifang became more and more sure that the family had given up on her, and felt sad, "Because I offended the queen, the queen will never let my cousin enter the palace."

"When did you offend the queen?"

"I don't remember." Zhao Xifang got up, "I'm back to the palace."

"You don't need to eat anymore?" Zhao Wangshi grabbed her.

Zhao Xifang shook off her hand, "I can't eat it."

As soon as she returned to the palace, someone reported to King Yu, "My lord, my concubine is back."

Upon hearing this, King Yu sneered mockingly, "She came back quite early today."

Normally Zhao Xifang would go back to her natal home for a whole day.

When she went back to her natal family, King Yu was not angry, what he was angry was that this woman never remembered her daughter, she was extremely cruel.

King Yu's love for Zhao Xifang, which was as thin as morning dew, became even weaker.

He took all four maids into the house, one of them served well and gave her the status of a wife, and the other three were concubines without status.

Jiang Changning knew that Emperor Xuanzhi rewarded the court ladies to King Yu, so he just smiled and continued to read "Han Guangwu Romance".

This is an unofficial history, mainly talking about the emotional entanglement between Emperor Guangwu and the two empresses.

When Emperor Guangwu was young, he appointed officials as the executive Jinwu, and married a wife as Yin Lihua wished.

Although she successfully married Yin Lihua later, she married Guo Shengtong again for the sake of alliance.

Even for the stability of the regime, Yin Lihua, the original partner, had to be wronged to be a nobleman under Guo Shengtong.

She was fascinated by watching, when Emperor Xuanzhi came, "What are you looking at?"

"Your Majesty." Jiang Changning showed him the cover of the book.

Emperor Xuanzhi took the book out of her hand, threw it aside, and said seriously: "Ningning, I am not Emperor Guangwu, and you are not Guo Shengtong."

Jiang Changning smiled, "I just read to pass the time, I didn't replace myself."

Even if she is Guo Shengtong, the dead Pu family can't be Yin Lihua.

The seventh day of February is Longevity Festival, which is the first Longevity Festival after Emperor Xuanzhi ascended the throne.

After the Lantern Festival, Jiang Changning started to work on the Longevity Festival.

The emperor's birthday is quite particular.

The dishes at the banquet, which imperial chef will be in charge, which wine to use, which utensils to use, and which troupe or famous actor should be announced to the palace, all these can cause heated discussions in the city.

On this day, Xiulan sent a list to Jiang Changning, "Ma'am, this is the opera troupe and famous actors selected by Yufutai from the people, can you see it?"

After Jiang Changning finished watching, "I have to discuss it with the Queen Mother."

He changed his clothes and took Xiaobai and Xiaoqian to the Palace of Mercy.

Emperor Xuanzhi insisted on not wanting to be drafted, and he refused to allow the queen mother to invite the ladies from the city to live in the palace for a short time. The queen mother found Jiang Changning a bit displeased.

Take Xiaobai and Xiaoqian to prevent the queen mother from losing her temper.

Although Jiang Changning is not afraid of the queen mother, there is no need to quarrel with the old man all the time.

When he arrived at the Palace of Mercy, Jiang Changning honestly handed the list to the Queen Mother, "Queen Mother, look at calling these troupes and these famous actors to perform in the palace, is it alright?"

The queen mother looked at it carefully, "Okay, just follow this list and call people into the palace."

"Trouble mother, help me look after these two boys, I'm off to work."

"I looked at my grandson, if there is anything to worry about, go and do yours."

"My daughter-in-law resigns." Jiang Changning quickly left and brought his two sons, which was indeed a brilliant move.
