Expensive marriage: The concubine is begging for peace again today

Chapter 63
The days passed day by day, and it was October [-]th in a blink of an eye. The weather was not good, and the wind was biting cold.

Jiang Changning was afraid of the cold, so he dressed thickly and held the hand warmer that Xiulan specially prepared for her.

"The county owner's body is still a little weak, and it's only October, and he needs to use a hand warmer. What can we do when it's the twelfth lunar month?" Qiao said with emotion.

The concubine glanced at Jiang Changning's slap-sized face, and frowned slightly, for she was too thin.

"Doesn't the palace even have the money to buy charcoal-fired earth dragons?" Jiang Changning looked terrified, "I have to tell the prince about this, and let him think of a way. I'm afraid of the cold."

"Don't talk nonsense, who said that the palace has no money to buy charcoal." Qiao said nervously.

Jiang Changning patted his chest pretendingly, "Sister-in-law scared me, so I thought I was going to be frozen in the twelfth lunar month."

Joe sneered, "Since when have you been so timid?"

"I've never been very courageous." Jiang Changning said softly, pouting.

Concubine Toffee glanced at the two daughters-in-law, both were not as she wanted, "Let's go."

There was a small sedan chair with green curtains at the gate of the courtyard. Seeing the three of them getting into the sedan chairs separately, hatred flashed in her eyes. If it wasn't for Mrs. Jiang, she would have gone out together today.

Mrs. Dali carried the sedan chair to Yimen, and outside Yimen, there were two carriages parked with silver-topped black curtains embroidered with the logo of Prince Jin's Mansion.

The concubine took Princess Kangren in the first carriage, and Jiang Changning took the second carriage.

It's not that three people can't sit down, but it's about ostentation.

Of course, neither Concubine Toffee, Jiang Changning, nor Princess Kang Ren put up a ceremony of honor.

Just as Jiang Changning was holding the maid's hand and was about to get into the carriage, King Jin's carriage returned.

Jiang Changning stopped and watched King Jin get off the carriage.

King Jin took a look at her, then walked to the concubine's carriage, "Concubine mother."

The car door opened, and the concubine asked with a smile: "Didn't I tell you to go directly to Prince Qing's Mansion, why did you come back?"

"All the prefectures have come out. There are many people and vehicles on the street. If I don't follow, don't worry." King Jin laughed.

"You just like to worry. Well, hurry up and get in the carriage, don't waste the time." The concubine smiled and narrowed her eyes. Of course she was happy that her son was filial and considerate.

King Jin walked to the second carriage, looked at Jiang Changning standing there, and raised the corners of his lips, "Concubine Lao has been waiting for a long time."

"Why didn't the lord go directly to Prince Qing's Mansion?" Jiang Changning asked the same question as the concubine.

King Jin didn't answer, but helped her into the carriage.

Sitting firmly in the carriage, King Jin smiled and said, "I'm afraid you'll be bored sitting alone in the carriage, so I'll come back to accompany you."

Jiang Changning was startled, and lowered his head to pretend to be ashamed.

The fox fur on the scarf tickled his nose, Jiang Changning couldn't hold back, and sneezed.

"It's so cold?" King Jin wanted to touch her forehead with concern.

"No, I'm wearing thick clothes." Jiang Changning turned his head away, avoiding his hand.

King Jin's hand paused in mid-air for a moment, then retracted, his eyes were gloomy, and his handsome face had a serious expression.

Jiang Changning handed him the hand warmer in his hand, "My lord, let's warm up."

The corners of King Jin's lips curled up, and the cold air disappeared, holding a small hand warmer with a happy expression.

Jiang Changning breathed a sigh of relief. He was indeed a powerful prince. He seemed gentle and kind, but in reality he was extremely domineering and could not tolerate rebellion.

Fortunately, she was rescued in time and escaped unharmed.

There were many cars and horses on the street, and the speed was very slow. It took less than half an hour to arrive at Prince Qing's Mansion.

On the gate of the palace, a large Chinese character for longevity was pasted, and red lanterns with the characters for longevity were hung.

The carriage of Prince Jin's Mansion entered the mansion directly from the side door, and stopped outside the Chuihua Gate.

As soon as the carriage stopped, King Jin and Jiang Changning hurriedly got out of the carriage and rushed to the front to serve the concubine.

Of course the concubine can get out of the carriage by herself, but it would appear that King Jin and Jiang Changning are not filial.

King Jin helped the concubine to get off the carriage, took a step back, and said in a low voice, "Follow concubine mother, don't be afraid."

The male guests and female relatives were not in the same place, and it was the first time for Jiang Changning to attend such a birthday banquet.

Jiang Changning frowned and said with a smile: "With the support of the prince, I am not afraid."

After entering the Chuihua Gate, the vigorous lady of Prince Qing's Mansion brought three small sedan chairs.

Jiang Changning helped the concubine onto the sedan chair first, and then got into the second sedan chair, and then turned to the maidservant, "Take care of the princess."

The architectural layout of the palace is similar, but the scenery is very different.

The first king of Qing, he liked the south of the Yangtze River, and the palace of King Qing had a landscape of the south of the Yangtze River with small bridges and flowing water.

Although it is early winter, the garden is still lush and full of hardy flowers of various colors, competing for splendor.

After passing through the Crescent Gate, I saw a young woman in a silver-red embroidered peony embroidered jacket coming to welcome me, "Grandmother, you are here, grandma has mentioned it several times."

She is the eldest granddaughter-in-law of Princess Qing, and Xu Shi, the eldest daughter of Duke Wei's son.

Mrs. Xu smiled and said: "I think this is Aunt Wang who just passed the door. Hello, Aunt Wang."

"Hello." Jiang Changning smiled at her, young and senior, it is also embarrassing.

Mrs. Xu led people into the main hall of the inner courtyard. In addition to Princess Shouxing Qing, there were Princess Ding and Princess Changshan in the hall.

Concubine Qing is older than Concubine Jin, Concubine Ding and Concubine Changshan, and looks richer than them.

She is not tall, and her plump figure makes her look very kind and gentle.

"Sister-in-law Wang, this is my youngest daughter-in-law." Princess Jin said with a smile.

Jiang Changning stepped forward to greet Princess Qing, and Princess Qing took her hand, "She is such a rare beauty. Congratulations to my brother and sister, for having such a good daughter-in-law."

"He is a good and filial child." No matter how dissatisfied the Princess Jin is with Jiang Changning, she will not speak ill of her outside.

Princess Ding and Princess Changshan also complimented her, "You are really lucky to have such a beautiful daughter-in-law."

Princess Jin replied politely: "Your daughters-in-law are also beauties."

The female family members of the palaces came one after another. Jiang Changning had already come out of the main hall and was taken to the side hall, where he stayed with the young concubine, concubine, princess, county lord, and girls.

On the first day of celebrating Princess Wang's birthday, all the guests came to the palace of the clan.

Although she is a newlywed, she is not familiar with everyone, but given her status, no one dares to neglect her, and will take her along when chatting.

While talking, two young women came in, the leading one was wearing the costume of the princess, and the other was wearing a rose red embroidered plum blossom jacket.

They also brought two young and beautiful women, Jiang Changning didn't pay much attention to those two women at first.

The concubine of Prince De showed disgust on her face, and said contemptuously: "As long as there is a banquet, I will bring someone to send it off. It's really annoying to have no face and skin."

"The Jiang family doesn't have many other things, but there are many girls. If you don't send them out, what should you do?" Changshan Wang Shizi covered her mouth and giggled like a hen laying eggs.

"You said, who is she going to give someone today?" Princess Ding's tone was full of gloating.

Everyone's eyes focused on Jiang Changning, and Jiang Changning was taken aback for a moment, "What do you mean?"
