The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 515
The person who drank the poison was just a concubine, and he didn't die, but within a day, the gust of wind blew away, and no one mentioned it.

In the evening, Prince Yong ordered the palace to be in charge, and the full moon banquet of Xiao Shiro from the Xie family was going to be held.

In the palace, regardless of the children of the concubine or the concubine, there is a full moon banquet, but the dignity of the concubines is different, and the degree of grandeur is naturally different. This is the rule.

Princess Yong issued this order because she was dissatisfied with what the Meng family did, so she praised Xie and Shiro even more.

Among the high gates, no matter how much the concubine is favored by the lord, it cannot be compared with the main wife at all, just like the Meng family, although Zhao Xuan treats her sincerely, but since she entered the gate of the palace, the Xie family did not allow her to have children. Nothing wrong with that.Because the Xie family had already given birth to four sons for Zhao Xuan, even Princess Yong would not object to the Xie family's constant use of soup for concubines.

On the second day, Ping Yang and Li Xiang finally set foot on their way home, and all the people from the palace who came to see the couple off were crowded at the gate.

Mrs. Xie couldn't come because she was still in confinement, but she sent her mother and confidant Aunt Zhao to see her off. Mrs. Meng couldn't come either. I was so weak that I couldn't even get out of bed.

Compared with the second and third brothers who all brought their wives to see them off, Zhao Xuan, the eldest brother in Pingyang, seemed a little lonely in the crowd.

Before leaving, Ping Yangnan specially told her elder brother: "Sister-in-law is a rare good wife, you should be good."

In front of everyone, Pingyang couldn't say too much, but Zhao Xuan didn't know what she was referring to.

He forced a smile, and replied: "I know, you have to take good care of yourself, and you will go to Beijing to pay tribute at the end of this year, let's get together again."

When Ping Yang got into the carriage, his last peripheral vision was still on his elder brother.

This dispute between wives and concubines made Zhao Xuan seem to have aged a lot all of a sudden, with a deep bond of flesh and blood, and Pingyang couldn't help but feel distressed when he saw it.

After the chariots and horses had left, Yuzhu sighed and said to Pingyang: "Just now when the concubine's mother came to see her off, I heard her whisper to the maidservant that the Meng family seems to be barren from now on."

Pingyang was startled when he heard the words, and asked: "How could this be? But she took the poison and hurt her foundation?"

Yuzhu nodded, and replied: "She has already drank the poison twice, and she hurt her body last time, this time I am afraid it will be terribly hurt. I heard from Eminem that after the doctor came to check the pulse this morning, he said that in the future, she might be injured. It's hard to get pregnant anymore."

No wonder I saw Zhao Xuan so sad just now!

Two daughters serving one husband together are destined to be incompatible. Although the Xie family occupies the position of the main wife and has many children, she and Zhao Xuan only respect and love each other. In terms of sincerity, Zhao Xuan is not as good to the Xie family as he is to the Meng family. of.Although the Meng family has Zhao Xuan's true love, but they have to be inferior to others, and they don't even have the right to have children for their beloved, and now they have lost the ability to reproduce by themselves.

In this battle between wives and concubines, no one is the winner, because the man they are fighting for cannot completely belong to any one party. This is a life-long struggle, there is no end, and there is no way to retire.

To be able to have a strong heart, to be tenacious in this contest, just like Mrs. Xie, even though she knew her husband was in love with someone else, she could still live her own life well and hold on to what she got, that would be considered a victory stop.

As for the Meng family, in the final analysis, he lost to himself after all.

"Ma'am, do you think that if side concubine Meng finds out about this, will she be overwhelmed?"

Yuzhu's words pulled Pingyang's thoughts back, she smiled wryly, and replied: "I can't say that well, she has already thought about committing suicide twice, but there is still hope in the end, and now she has completely lost hope , who knows if she can hold on."

Although Mrs. Xie did not allow her to have a child, she did not say that she would never stop avoiding her son's soup, nor did she use private means to deal with her. Now that she is in such a state, it is entirely caused by her own lack of firmness of mind.

If you want to complain, you can only blame her for being too impatient.

The master and the servant were chatting here, when the carriage stopped suddenly, Li Xiang got off his horse, opened the door, and asked Pingyang inside, "Are you tired, do you want to take a rest?"

Pingyang replied: "I'm not tired, don't take a rest, and you can feel at ease if you arrive at the inn in front of you earlier."

Li Xiang stood under the car and said with a smile: "Don't worry, we will be able to get there before dark."

Seeing that Li Xiang had no intention of leaving after finishing his speech, Yuzhu quickly got out of the car to make room for the couple.

Sure enough, as soon as Yuzhu left, Li Xiang stepped into the carriage and sat down next to Pingyang.

Although the carriage was spacious, Ping Yang suddenly felt a lot cramped when Li Xiang came in, she subconsciously moved aside to try to make room for him, but Li Xiang followed closely and moved closer to her.

"Just now I heard that you and Yuzhu have been chatting about the eldest brother and sister-in-law, right?" Li Xiang asked, looking for something to say.

Ping Yang nodded slightly, and replied perfunctorily: "It's just chatting, just killing time."

"I heard you talking about Meng Shi."

Just now the master and the servant didn't mean to betray anyone when they spoke, Li Xiang rode his horse and protected them outside the car, so he listened to them all.

Seeing him mentioning this, Pingyang asked back: "Have you met that Meng family this time?"

Li Xiang is the noble son-in-law of the palace, so naturally it is not something ordinary women can see, but since he recovered from his illness, several family banquets have been held in the palace, and the Meng family is Zhao Xuan's side concubine, so according to the rules, he is also qualified to attend the family banquet , if Li Xiang had seen it, it would not be surprising.

But Li Xiang shook his head and said: "You have too many sister-in-laws in the palace, even if I have met them, I can't tell which one is which."

After hearing this, Pingyang smiled and replied: "Our family is not like yours. Men are allowed to take concubines before they get married, and there is no rule against taking concubines after marriage, so brothers' women are naturally concubines. Just more."

Li Xiang nodded slightly, then looked at Pingyang and said, "Actually, I think that no matter how many concubines a man has, the status of those women in a man's heart cannot be compared with that of his wife."

After hearing this, Ping Yang suppressed her smile, looked sideways at Li Xiang and asked, "What if the concubine's room is the man's true love?"

Li Xiang replied: "A man's true love will only be his wife, just like the elder brother. The reason why he is in love with the Meng family is that they met when they were young, and the relationship is even more unforgettable for him. I don't believe it. In his heart, the Meng family can really surpass sister-in-law."

He meant something.

A concubine's room can't match a wife?Hehe, the two fell into the water at the same time, and his first thought was to save the concubine's room!

When a person is in a hurry, what he shows is his true heart.

What he said was just to excuse himself, and also meant to please himself.

Since he intends to please, Pingyang will not try to dismantle him, after all, who would not like to enjoy other people's favor, as long as Li Xiang doesn't use the way of expression like jumping into the water, Pingyang is still willing to take advantage of it.

"What you said is true." Pingyang replied lightly, but his eyes looked out of the window, and sighed: "Yizhou's scenery is really beautiful!"
