What favor are you fighting for?The empress's harem has won a lot of business

Chapter 116 How Did My Mother Die?
Cursing belongs to cursing, but in the end Lin Ximeng paid 20 taels of silver.

How to say, sometimes people still can't stand out too much.

That night, Lin Ximeng was as heartbroken as a walking corpse. That was 20 taels of silver, a monthly fee for a whole month.

Kowtow mechanically, say auspicious words, and salute tea in a dull manner.

Seeing Lin Ximeng so devastated, the seatmate Xie Chenyu seldom smiled, even he didn't notice it.

Finally, after following the crowd to offer tea and kowtow, Lin Ximeng returned to Zhuxiao Courtyard and ordered the gate to be closed.

"Master, even if you don't close the door, no one will come"

Lin Ximeng had no intention of joking, and had a mournful face.

"How long will it take me to save up to 20 taels"

Qingqing can't laugh or cry.

"Look at your talent, the princess will reward you tomorrow"

"Too"

Lin Ximeng thought, since the Wang family is in full swing, it won't be too shabby to make a move.

She got into bed comfortably and turned over comfortably, falling asleep beautifully.

It's not that she's worthless, it's just that saving her life is the most important thing.

In a confrontation with Wang Shi, she might not even know how she died.

Bauhinia couldn't laugh or cry either.

"Master is too careless. Only master can sleep in this backyard tonight."

-

The wedding night in the bridal chamber is naturally a moment of spring night.

On the second day, the third day, and the No.15 day, the new concubine's room was the only favorite, and all the women in the backyard were eclipsed.

It was not until the Dragon Boat Festival in May that the King of Chu went to Song Liangdi's courtyard again.

The hungry and thirsty Song Liangdi looked forward to the stars and the moon, and finally to the King of Chu, and tried her best to please him.

It was crying about the pain of lovesickness, and it was Qiqi Ai Ai saying that she did not want to be monopolized and favored, but only wanted to have a place in the heart of the prince.

The next morning, Wen Ruan Xiaoyi put on the clothes for the master, and Song Liangdi embraced Xie Chenyu from behind.

The side face is attached to the man's back.

"I don't know what year and month it will be when I see Your Highness next time. I dare not compete with the concubine for favor. I just ask His Highness to shower me with rain and dew and I will be satisfied."

Xie Chenyu pulled her hand away and turned around, smiling perfunctorily.

"You are the good concubine of this king, no matter how you say it will not make you fall out of favor, I have wronged you these days, Zhao Hai"

Xie Chenyu called Zhao Hai to come over to open the warehouse, and brought a pair of jadeite bracelets for Song Liangdi. The jade was delicate and oily, and it was very valuable.

"Thank you my lord"

Song Liangdi wept with joy, she immediately put it on, sat down and looked to the right, feeling as if she was coming to the end of all hardships.

Xie Chenyu looked at her with satisfaction, turned around and strode away.

Then all of May.

The concubine was the first, followed by Song Liangdi, Cui Liangren was similar to Liu Liangren, several concubines also received rewards, but Lin Ximeng had nothing.

Wang Xiangjun watched with cold eyes for almost a month, then frowned and asked Mother Cheng.

"Didn't you say that Mrs. Lin is the most favored because of her good looks?"

"The rumors are always exaggerated. She is just the daughter of a criminal minister with a good skin. In reality, she is just an ordinary woman who is occasionally greedy for money."

"Perhaps the prince is rare, but it's not unusual to turn around and throw away"

"It's Song Liangdi, looking at the master, I still miss you a lot"

"Greedy?" Wang Xiangjun didn't understand.

Madam Cheng told the story of rewarding concubines when she first entered the mansion.

It is said that others are wronged and unwilling to accept the reward with a smile, but she is the only one who is really happy, and the joy is almost overflowing from the corners of her eyes and brows.

"Just based on this, she is said to be greedy for money. What if she is pretending?"

"The slave also suspected it, and found that she was not pretending, and was not only greedy for money, but also greedy for food. There are two stoves in the kitchen in the backyard dedicated to serving her."

"Oh? How do you say it?" Wang Xiangjun was very surprised.

Nanny Cheng whispered in Wang Xiangjun's ear the bits and pieces of information she had inquired about.

"Spring, summer, autumn and winter don't stop every day. You want snacks, vegetables, and fruits. In winter, there are hot pots and sometimes wine"

"My master gave her a carriage, and I ate all the noodle restaurants that were open around, and 20 taels a month went into my stomach."

'It's like I haven't eaten, sometimes my mouth is full of bubbles just to eat'

Wang Xiangjun giggled, and the jade bracelet on his wrist jingled.

"It doesn't look like an ordinary person, but she does some ordinary things, that's all, let's ignore her, but let me keep an eye on Song Liangdi first, that's not an easy way to save money"

"You don't need to tell me, the madam asked me to follow to let the old slave clean up the trouble, you don't have to worry."

Wang Xiangjun was very satisfied.

Although her mother disapproved of this marriage and the husband's family she found was also dissatisfied, but I have to say that in this world, only my mother wholeheartedly cares for her.

-

Xie Chenyu's side.

The last time at Ruyifang was a harbinger of conflict.

This encounter outside the Imperial Study Room was a real confrontation with the dispute.

At the end of May, the emperor ate some fruit because of his greed for cold, and he felt unwell in the holy body. The princes and princesses took turns to perform filial piety in front of the bed.

The prince and concubine, the third prince was sent here, the fifth son brought his wives and concubines, Xie Chenyu, Wang Xiangjun, etc., as well as the eighth and ninth princesses, etc., all came here.

After taking the medicine, the emperor was already more than half healed, lying crookedly on the bed weakly.

After greeting each of them one by one, their eyes finally fell on Xie Chenyu.

"The Plum Blossom Longevity Pill that Lao Liu gave me last time was pretty good. After eating a few pills, my whole body feels comfortable and comfortable. If I have any, I will send some more."

"Yes, yes, this Plum Blossom Longevity Pill is not to mention the precious medicinal materials. It is better than the prescription. It can not only nourish but also warm up. It will not get angry after eating, and it will prolong life and strengthen the body." Xie Chenyu was beaming with joy. The pride of being in the limelight in front of the sisters.

The old emperor nodded in satisfaction: "The sixth son is still filial."

"In the past few years, my body has become weaker and weaker. The imperial doctor always said that it would be troublesome, but I don't read the papers very much, and push them all to the cabinet."

Before he finished speaking, the prince stepped forward and cupped his hands.

"The sons and ministers are not filial, and they should share the worries of the father and emperor"

"If the father is unable to do what he wants, he can tell his son, and the son will do his best."

The old emperor: "..."

How to say this feeling?

It's probably like Lao Tzu asking his son, what should I eat if I'm in poor health?Is there any way to make up for it?

The son vowed, don't worry, hand over the ancestral family business to me, I will not humiliate you.

It's a nice word, but it sounds weird.

The old emperor said that he could still be rescued, and he shouldn't die for a while.

He coughed lightly and said that he was tired, and dismissed everyone, leaving only Xie Chenyu to speak.

Xie Chenyu was flattered.

In the dark inner room, the father and son looked at each other seriously for the first time, and the atmosphere was somewhat awkward.

"Yu'er, I didn't expect you to grow up and look so good."

Xie Chenyu: "..."

What is this, what is it that he didn't expect to grow up, did he think he would not grow up?

The next sentence confirms the idea.

"I thought you wouldn't grow up"

"You have to thank the queen all these years"

Xie Chenyu turned his head away, feeling a little bit wronged in his heart: "My minister knows that it was the queen who took care of me"

The old emperor coughed again.

"It's good to grow up. I will see your mother when I go there in the future."

Xie Chenyu's pupils widened.

For the first time in more than ten years, someone brought up his birth mother in front of him, the woman who gave birth to him after a narrow escape, and finally took her life to go in.

"How did my mother die?"
