rich concubine

Chapter 2078 Words

During the former Qi Dynasty, there were many royal palaces that were not in use, and Princess Fengning's Mansion was one of them.

Rong Yi thought for a while, nodded, and said, "Many activities were held here in the past. This is a good place."

Mrs. Qi glanced at Rong Yi and said with a smile, "We'll go to the princess's mansion to take a look later. If there's no problem, let's make a decision."

"it is good."

There are not many princess mansions in the capital. Generally speaking, only princesses who marry into the royal family will have princess mansions, and they must be married to someone close to them. If they marry far away, they will never come back in this life, where can they spend their energy? Building a princess mansion.

But Princess Fengning was an accident. She was the most favored princess in the former Qi Dynasty. In the year she was born, the Qi Emperor built a very luxurious princess palace for her.

Princess Fengning was the daughter of concubine Jing. Concubine Jing was not much favored, but when she was born, auspiciousness descended from the sky, and a national master predicted that she would benefit the country of Qi, and that she would be a rare goddess descended into the world once in a hundred years.

Emperor Qi believed in his imperial master and loved Princess Fengning even more, so he treated his concubine kindly and elevated her to the rank of noble concubine.

Because of the prophecy, the princess was given the title Feng Ning when she was still young, which shows how high Emperor Qi's expectations were for her at that time.

Unfortunately, the good times did not last long. Someone found out that the secret affair between the imperial master and the concubine Jing was exposed in front of Emperor Qi. At that time, in order to save the royal family's face, the emperor of Qi had the informer killed and the concubine Jing "died of illness". But he still reused the imperial master.

Even if the national master's actions make him lose face, but... he has the ability, and his Taoism is unmatched by other masters.

To put it simply, the Emperor of Qi at that time could not live without his imperial advisor. Otherwise, his adultery with his concubines would have killed him a hundred times.

Despite this, in order to prevent this matter from being exposed, Emperor Qi still loved Feng Ning. However, later on, Qi's strength was exhausted, and Princess Feng Ning, who had lived a glorious life, died in the palace, facing her princess mansion in the capital. , that is where she wanted to go, but unfortunately, she has been trapped in the palace her whole life, and she has not been able to enjoy the happy time for the rest of her life.

Of course, these royal secrets were only known after the Qi Kingdom was destroyed, but it is true that she was once favored, and the princess's glorious life was also reflected in the princess's mansion.

Thinking about the princess's life in her mind, Rong Yi sighed softly, took a bite of the fruit, and heard Mrs. Qi say: "How did you sleep when you went back yesterday?"

Rong Yi nodded, unable to help but think of the eldest princess's words, and glanced at Mrs. Qi, only to see her smiling slightly and not saying much.

That's all, there are many things that don't need to be asked or said. It's not easy for her to see others, and she doesn't know how they see her.

But Mrs. Qi didn't seem to be so evasive and said bluntly: "It seems that I haven't had a good night's sleep for many years."

Rong Yi could only ask: "But the affairs are complicated?"

Mrs. Qi lost her temper and smiled sparsely: "It's because I can't sleep. When I close my eyes, they turn bright red..."

She didn't say why the bright red color was, but Rong Yi could vaguely understand that the bright red color was blood. Maybe it was because she thought of her elder son every night.

"Although life is getting better now, I still feel anxious in my heart. I never relax. I'm telling you this. Do you understand?" Rong Yi shook her head honestly. She didn't understand, but she could understand. , because she probably knows the reason.

Seeing her candid shaking of her head, Mrs. Qi smiled and said, "Yes, you are so young, if you have to understand this feeling, what should you do in the future?"

"..."

"Everyone envies me for marrying a good husband and having several good children. Sometimes when I think about it, it is true. I am grateful for the years I have had no worries about food, clothing, housing, and transportation."

However, who could have known that in those days when the battlefield was stained with blood and narrowly escaped death, the whole family really sacrificed their lives in exchange for the wealth they have today.

After getting through it, all she could see was the wealth and honor. It became ridiculous when she looked cautious while wearing gold and silver.

Who can believe that the Qi family is now walking on thin ice.

A year ago, the emperor's temptation and her son's silence made her, a court lady and a mother, frightened. It seemed that she could predict that the Qi family's storm was coming.

Now that she came here with a half-disabled body, she saw the prosperity and enthusiasm of the capital, but her heart could not beat even a little bit. She was frightened and indifferent.

Why has the Qi family not seen anyone since the year they returned to Beijing? Are they really keeping a low profile?No, only they themselves know. This is to avoid suspicion in case they have trouble speaking in the future.

A year later, the unclear attitude of the royal family gave her a glimmer of hope. Although she was tired, how could she dare to let it go...

The younger daughter doesn't understand the difficulties of bringing the family together. She was respectful and polite when she came yesterday, just pretending that she didn't understand the problems. But when she went back yesterday, I was afraid that she would only be able to analyze the pros and cons with her in detail. Today morning When he picked her up, she was still the same as before, and he didn't notice the change in her attitude. This moved Mrs. Qi's heart and her eyes softened.

This chaotic capital city finally has some comfort.

"Madam, things in the world never change as expected. Even the most intelligent people cannot have everything go as they wish. Others can only see the scenery, because it is something they have never gotten. Once they get it, they will not be able to predict it. Only those who have lost it will know how the fleeting scenery can compare with the stability in the heart."

After hearing this, Mrs. Qi was at a loss for a moment, and then said: "You are so young, but you speak very calmly, and it doesn't seem like something you would understand at your age."

Rong Yi pursed her lips and smiled lightly: "Madam, age cannot determine anything. If one's life is to be divided by age, then everyone should have a worry-free childhood, a smooth youth, a proud middle age, and a stable old age. , but in this world, not everyone is born with a worry-free childhood. Some people can satisfy all the first three, but how can we be sure that they will have a stable old age."

Therefore, the change of a person's state of mind is not determined by his age. How many people have experienced all the rough things prematurely, and only after going through vicissitudes can they gain temporary stability. How can it happen at this time? How about continuing to remain innocent?

"I have heard rumors about your unfortunate childhood. No wonder you would say such things. Only those who have experienced it can understand." Mrs. Qi's eyes flashed slightly.

Rong Yi said: "If I had never been a wife, maybe I would also feel that my childhood was unfortunate, but now I am only grateful for everything I have experienced. If I had grown up without worries about food and clothing, I would not have suffered a lot in my mind. Frustration, maybe, I am not who I am today.”
