After rebirth, the down-and-out concubine married the cold prince

Chapter 29

Lu Ji didn't quite remember the appearance of Ming imperial concubine.It's just that those days were so hard that I still feel tight when I think about it today.

Lu Min loves Concubine Ming so much that he even wants to disregard the rule of making the eldest son the heir apparent and make Lu Yan the crown prince.This is Liu Enxian's bottom line, Lu Ji was still young at that time.In my memory, my father's face is blurred, because I have no feelings for Liu Enxian, and even the existence of Lu Ji has become a kind of task.When he was born, Lu Min's mission was completed.Even if you have to come to Weiyang Palace on the first and fifteenth day of the lunar new year, you still sleep in your clothes. Many times, the little Lu Ji hid in the corner and watched Ming Guifei and Lu Min and Lu Yan's family happily, and there would be unspeakable sadness in his heart until he grew up. Feel hard to let go.

But before the idea of ​​abolishing the prince, Liu Enxian didn't act. Even if she didn't have the emperor's favor in her heart, as long as Lu Ji grew up healthy and healthy, it would be enough to comfort her lonely heart.But as a mother, there are a few people who don't plan for their children.

Concubine Ming loved her so much that she turned her mind on Lu Ji.

Looking at Liu Enxian's hand, Lu Ji felt in a trance, feeling that the bright red fingers were not stained with the juice of flowers and plants, but the blood that kept gushing out of Concubine Ming's body.

The woman stared fiercely at Lu Ji with her unrepentant eyes.

You'll feel terrified, too scared to sleep.Or do you feel pity for that fresh human life?
None, Lu Ji just watched coldly.He clearly knew that if this woman didn't die, he would die.

So Lu Ji just walked past indifferently, looked at the struggling figure in the water and opened his throat, "Come here, the imperial concubine has fallen into the water!"

He was embraced by Liu Enxian, and the woman covered her face in fear that Ming Guifei's terrifying appearance would cast a shadow on him.

The murderer was soon found out, and Lu Ji knew that Liu Enxian would arrange everything.She held the son of the concubine who was not a high ranking concubine in her hand, and the other party could only willingly bear the crime of murdering the concubine.

"Have you visited your father?"

Liu Enxian's voice pulled Lu Ji back from his thoughts, he was a little dazed, but subconsciously replied: "I've seen it, Father is in good condition."

"That's good." Liu Enxian breathed a sigh of relief, always feeling a little regretful.She stroked the cat in her arms, and found that Lu Ji's crescent moon pendant was gone, replaced by a cat pendant.

"This thing is quite interesting."

She handed the cat in her arms to Lu Ji, "It's a bit like a treasure."

Lu Ji laughed along, "Isn't it, she also likes cats and dogs."

Liu Enxian also laughed, she has nothing to pursue, she likes whatever Lu Ji likes, provided that such things don't threaten each other's future.

"I heard that girl is sick?"

"It's nothing serious." Lu Ji lowered his head, and Ju Bao obediently turned his belly out, as if he was at his mercy.Lu Ji thought it was fun, he had raised cats before, but he rarely touched pets after being thrown to death by Concubine Ming.

He buried the white cat under Liu Enxian's phlox tree, and it has not been found so far.

"Duke Rong's third son proposed to marry him, but she prevaricated it by calling him sick."

After Lu Ji finished speaking, as if he was asking for Liu Enxian's consent, he quietly waited for her to speak.Naturally, Liu Enxian would not let him down, and tied her luxurious hair bun, "You, you will come to my place only if you need to ask your mother for something. But I just can't leave you alone, so don't worry about it. I'll see you in two days." Let’s call your uncle’s family into the palace to catch up on the old days.”

She lowered her eyes and lit the incense casually.

"Is Lu Yan's marriage settled?"

"It's fixed, I will issue a letter of engagement tomorrow, and we will get married on the sixth day of next month."

Hearing this, Liu Enxian breathed a sigh of relief, "His marriage is settled, so should yours."

"Yes." Lu Ji gritted his teeth, "Lack of a reason."

Liu Enxian raised his head, a little puzzled, "What reason is there for marrying a concubine?"

"Mother, I don't want to hear gossip."

Liu Enxian knew that Lu Ji's temperament would never allow the slightest mistake, but with Liu Piaopiao's identity there, what kind of splashes could he make.

"Don't worry about it, mother, I know it well."

Liu Enxian was a little displeased, "You know what's in your heart, but Liu Piaopiao may not. If something goes wrong, your fate will end here."

Lu Ji didn't speak, just quietly stroking the cat under his hand.It caused Ju Bao to stretch out his claws and step on his arm, Lu Ji let it go.

Liu Piaopiao lay on the bed for a whole day, and Su Xiao came to see her.Sitting on the edge, I don't know what to say.Her life was so bad that she actually thought that marrying into the Duke's mansion would be a good choice.But she knew that Liu Piaopiao would not like to hear such words, so she only talked with her about irrelevant things.

Liu Piaopiao can take it easy, if Lu Ji has her in his heart, everything can be said, but if Lu Ji doesn't have her in his heart, there is nothing to struggle.

"Is sister-in-law feeling better?"

Su Xiao nodded. After becoming a mother, there was an indescribable brilliance in her eyes.Liu Piaopiao sometimes thinks, maybe this is maternal love.

Liu Piaopiao stroked Su Xiao's stomach, but there was no movement for more than a month.Liu Piaopiao said in surprise, "Sister-in-law, it moved!"

Su Xiao was amused by her, "It's only been a month or so before there is any movement, not because I drank too much almond tea at noon and now it's dangling in my stomach."

Liu Piaopiao was also a little embarrassed, she changed the topic, "What's it like to be a mother?"

Su Xiao tapped the tip of her nose, "You will know what it feels like when Miss Wu becomes a mother herself."

"That will take a long time."

Liu Piaopiao has never met her own mother, she looked at Su Xiao and gave birth to some daydreams for no reason.Maybe my mother felt the same way when she was pregnant, she loved me.This kind of cognition filled Liu Piaopiao with strength, and she couldn't help but be full of beautiful imaginations about the future.

God also cared enough for her, and soon Chang Qing sent what Liu Piaopiao wanted.After going around for a while, the crescent moon pendant finally found its way into Liu Piaopiao's hands.

She didn't speak for a long time, only tears rolled in her eyes.Su Xiao didn't know, just wanted to comfort her but saw Liu Piaopiao fell back on the bed, covering her eyes and laughing foolishly.

Su Xiao leaned forward, "What's the matter, don't scare me!"

Liu Piaopiao stuffed the crescent moon pendant under the pillow, her eyes were bright, she no longer looked sleepy just now, on the contrary, her pink lips curled into an arc.

Su Xiao looked at her, and suddenly put his heart back into his stomach.

"Is it a good thing?"

Liu Piaopiao nodded, and Su Xiao asked again, "Is it the prince?"

"Yes."

"That's good." Su Xiao couldn't help being happy, "Our fifth girl finally made it through."

I don't know if Liu Piaopiao survived or not, but Liu Yufu is in a good mood.

The marriage of the second prince is a great joy, and after this matter is over, it will be Lu Ji's marriage.

The candidate for the crown princess is about to be announced, and Liu Yufu has already taken a fancy to the style of the wedding dress, and is working hard on Liu Qian to prepare a dowry for her.

Unlike her, Liu Qian has no bottom in her heart.

If Liu Piaopiao doesn't get married, she can't sleep well, especially recently, Liu Yirong's attitude towards Liu Piaopiao has improved day by day for some reason.

Like her mother, she is the most charming.

Liu Qian was furious.

However, Liu Yufu's heart is on the bright side, which can be described as stupid compared to Liu Wenlan.

"Mother." Liu Yufu hugged Liu Qian's waist, acting like a child, "What clothes will my child wear to Lord Wang's house tomorrow?"

"My son is so charming, he can wear anything."

Liu Yufu pursed her lips in displeasure.

"There are so many noble girls tomorrow, I can't be compared."

"Who can compare to you, my Fu'er is the most beautiful, no one can compare."

Liu Wenlan watched from the side, feeling a little sad in her heart.It's just that she's used to it.When she was young, she was a medicine jar, and outsiders could get sick by blowing on her.Even Liu Qian seldom has any intimacy with her. When Liu Wenlan grows up and gets better, the relationship between mother and child will not be as deep as Liu Yufu's.

She can't blame others, it's her own disappointment.

Liu Wenlan lowered her head desolately, why can't her mother look at herself, she is obviously much smarter than Liu Yufu.

If she becomes the princess, she will definitely find a way to bring the family to another level.

My aunt was too cautious, so Liu Yirong only did Zhongshu Ling.

If you are more courageous, why not become a person who is under one person and above ten thousand people.

But after all, they were afraid of Liu Piaopiao and never thought about her.I'm afraid Liu Wenlan will be reprimanded for expressing her thoughts.

She cleared her throat to shake off the boredom.

"Tomorrow is Da Sikong's daughter Wang Yuxi's Nazheng ceremony. Why are you dressing up in such a gorgeous way? To attract people's resentment and say that you don't understand etiquette?"

Liu Yufu was taken aback by what she said, staring at Liu Wenlan speechless for a moment.

"Haven't you heard of it? Wang Yuxi ruined her face and looks like Shura. Da Sikong takes pity on her, and you have become a flower peacock for her acceptance of Zhengli. What do you make Da Sikong think?"

Liu Wenlan's eyes were too contemptuous, Liu Yufu instinctively wanted to refute, but couldn't speak.Liu Qian saw the undercurrent between the two sisters, and said in a timely manner, "Since that's the case, Yufu can be compared to her by wearing coarse cloth. She is pitiful enough, so don't steal her limelight."

Liu Yufu felt better after hearing this, and obediently said that she would absolutely keep her own place.Even if that Wang Yuxi is really unsightly at that time, she will never laugh at others.

But at this point, she was a little worried, "Mother, will Liu Piaopiao go?"

"No." Liu Qian said firmly, "How can she go to such a banquet in her capacity?"

As soon as the words fell, Liu Wenlan took over, "Mother, Wang Yuxi is also a concubine."

This time, all officials above rank seven in Yunjing will be invited.Even the little-known ones can present their congratulatory speeches in front of Da Sikong Mansion if they want to, and then they can enter the banquet to rejoice.

This is just an engagement, and on the day of marriage, it is not impossible to set up hundreds of tables at Caishikou to celebrate with the people according to the degree of Da Sikong's love for Wang Yuxi.

Liu Qian clicked her tongue when she heard that, "A concubine with such a big show, why haven't I heard her name before."

It wasn't that Liu Qian was confused, it was that Wang Yuxi was too low-key.Maybe it's because of his face, there are only a handful of banquets attended by Wang Yuxi since he was a child, except for palace banquets, civil and military officials' birthdays, weddings, housewarmings and promotions, he blindly does not attend.

Da Sikong's family is prosperous, but all of them are boys.Of the eight brothers, only one girl was born. Naturally, she is a favorite, and her face was injured.Fearing that the rumors outside would hurt Wang Yuxi's heart, he didn't go out.

Before, there was a fifth-rank petty official talking about Wang Yuxi's face in front of Da Sikong, and his family moved out not long after.From the fifth rank to the seventh rank.

Therefore, there will definitely be a copy of Liu Piaopiao's invitation this time.

"But she is so sick, can she still go?"

Liu Wenlan smiled coldly, "Don't worry, she will crawl even if she crawls."

It was raining outside, and Liu Piaopiao's head hurt a little.

The invitation was passed to Liu Piaopiao, and He Zhi made mung bean porridge.Clearing heat and reducing fire, very sweet.Liu Piaopiao sips one sip at a time, staring at the invitation for a long while without speaking.

She didn't want to go, she had just been sick, and she was afraid that the head room would not give her good looks if she went to the banquet.

But whether to go or not is not up to her.

Liu Piaopiao was drinking mung bean soup when Liu Yirong suddenly appeared at the door, so frightened that Liu Piaopiao almost choked.

She wanted to come down, but Liu Yirong stopped her.After I sat down at the table, I poured a cup of tea and took a sip with an exaggerated expression.It's hard to spit it out, so I can only swallow it.

Liu Piaopiao knew that he was not used to drinking these teas.

"Father, don't be surprised, this aged tea really doesn't taste very good."

Liu Yirong looked at Liu Piaopiao on the bed, thin and small, and couldn't help cursing.

"The butler's servants."

Liu Piaopiao smiled, "No wonder they, I don't like to drink tea on weekdays."

Liu Piaopiao didn't blame her, and Liu Yirong couldn't say anything.

He felt a little guilty towards Liu Piaopiao, and always felt that those eyes were too much like her dead mother, and if he looked at them twice, he felt that there was a wrongdoing.So he took another sip with a sullen head, and almost didn't swallow it this time.

"Piao Piao." Liu Yirong pondered for a while, "Do you want to marry the prince?"

Liu Piaopiao practiced Tai Chi, "You have to ask, who does the crown prince want to marry?"

"Bad," Liu Yirong waved his hand, "This is not something he can decide on his own."

Liu Piaopiao made a sound, her eyebrows were lowered and her eyes were pleasing to the eye.

"What did father think?"

Liu Yirong seemed a little hard to speak, looking into Liu Piaopiao's clear eyes.

"The idea of ​​being a father is that your status is a little lower. It would be outrageous to be the main wife, so it's better to be a concubine. Marry Wen Lan together, and you sisters will be on equal footing so you can have someone to take care of you."

Liu Piaopiao laughed twice, "Father just decides."

She has no right to say no, and no right to choose.

It's just that Liu Yirong's statement, Liu Yufu will not agree, and Liu Wenlan will not agree either.

Even if she agrees, it is impossible for Liu Piaopiao to sit on an equal footing with her.

But even so, is Liu Piaopiao willing?

"Are you feeling better?"

Liu Piaopiao nodded, "It's much better."

Liu Yirong nodded, "Since that's the case, you can also go to Da Sikong's banquet tomorrow."

Liu Piaopiao thought, indeed Liu Yirong didn't care about him.

In fact, she didn't even have the strength to stand up.
