Red Mansion Beijingwang

Chapter 5 The caring Princess Beijing

After the Qin family father and daughter left, Princess Beijing took a sip of tea and said leisurely: "This wife of the Qin family has a very good child. There is no one in the palace who is more handsome than her."

Shui Rong was convinced when he heard this. Qin Keqing had a beautiful face and a graceful figure. Her almond eyes were even more attractive, sometimes pure and sometimes charming. Although the Yingluo next to Shui Rong was good-looking, she didn't have such charm. But even so, Shui Rong would definitely not admit it. He rolled his eyes and said with a smile: "Mother, you are wrong. Although the Qin family's wife gave birth to a good child, it seems that the mother is better than her." It’s a thousand times better!!!!”

As soon as these words came out, Princess Beijing immediately became happy. She stretched out her hand and tapped Shuirong's forehead, and scolded with a smile: "You should be beaten if you are smooth-talking."

When Shui Rong saw Princess Beijing's heart elated, the corners of her mouth raised slightly. Women, especially older women, without exception, like to listen to sweet words. Especially when Shui Rong said these words, the effect was even more different. He was still able to manipulate the widowed mother. She has a way of doing it, and Princess Beijing does not look old. She was originally the second wife of the old King Beijing. Before marrying into the palace, she was still a young girl. At this time, she is showing her age. The so-called maiden, her charm is still there. In comparison, Down, it is more charming than Qin Keqing, so water-melting is not all coaxing.

"Rong'er, do you have any objection to my arrangement?" After the laughter, Princess Beijing asked softly.

Shui Rong planned to marry Qin Keqing, but Princess Beijing did not mention it. Instead, she kept Qin Keqing by her side. Looking at Shui Rong's expression earlier, Princess Beijing knew that he was interested, and she thought that Shui Rong would I retorted a few words, but I didn't think about it, but I was able to sit still.

When Shui Rong heard the words, he immediately became vigilant. The sudden appearance of a person his "son" liked made him feel hostile. This is a common problem among mothers since ancient times. In the original work, Mrs. Wang hated Lin Daiyu for this reason, especially Shui Xiu is a stepson, so we have to prevent mother and son from becoming separated.

Judging from Princess Beijing's attitude towards Qin Ye, she looks down on the Qin family. Letting Qin Keqing enter the palace is just for her own liking. No matter what, Qin Keqing will stay. This can be regarded as a compliment. In this way, Princess Beijing cannot be made to feel that she has "forgotten her mother after having a daughter-in-law." Thinking of this, Shui Rong said obediently: "My mother's arrangement must be for the good of her child."

Princess Beijing couldn't help but feel satisfied when she saw Shui Rong's upright attitude. She looked at Qin Keqing, who was charming and charming. She was originally worried that Shui Rong would be seduced, but now it seems that she has no such worries, so He opened his mouth and explained: "Rong'er, Qin Keqing is a decent person, but she comes from a small family and her foundation is a bit poor. Since you like it, let her train with me for a year or two first, and then I can give her to you." Are you okay with this?"

Shui Rong gently nodded when he heard the words. It would be okay to train him for a year or two. He happened to be growing too. If he was placed next to her and they got along day and night, he would inevitably become impulsive. It was like putting a fish in front of a cat. How could he expect to avoid being fishy?
So Shui Rong said with a smile: "The mother has trained her very well. Look at Yingluo. She has been trained well by the mother and matches the child's wishes very well."

Hearing these sweet words, Princess Beijing's face blossomed into a smile, and she couldn't help but look at Yingluo, who was standing with her eyes lowered. Shuirong originally had many maids around her, but they were all sent away by "keeping filial piety" During the three-year filial piety period, Shui Rong restrained himself and did not violate the rules. This made Princess Beijing happy.

But now that the period of keeping filial piety is about to end, Shui Rong will not close the door to thank guests. He always has to socialize. If he has never seen the world, it is inevitable that he will be seduced by the foxy people outside and do some unfilial things. Such things are rare in wealthy families. There were a lot of people coming out of the big house. To guard against the danger, Princess Beijing waved to Yingluo. When Yingluo came forward, she took Yingluo's hand and said in a harmonious voice: "You are a decent person. I have tried my best to take care of you in the past three years. Come on, starting from this month, your monthly salary will be raised to [-] taels."

Hearing this, Yingluo's face lit up with joy. The monthly schedule in the mansion was fixed. Like before, Yingluo had one tael a month, which was the monthly schedule for the maid, and two taels a month, this was the "aunt's" monthly schedule. The implication of Princess Beijing is to upgrade Yingluo's status to a "quasi-aunt".

Those who work as a maid are naturally "motivated". The best destination for a big maid like Yingluo is to be an aunt. Moreover, Shui Rong is handsome and treats others kindly. With such a good master, the maids in the mansion will be more caring. Go, how can Yingluo be exempted from vulgarity?

However, Yingluo did not get carried away and quickly expressed her position: "I have been working as an errand in the palace since I was a child. The prince is my heaven. Being able to serve the prince is a blessing that I have cultivated for three lifetimes. I will not find it hard."

Princess Beijing nodded with satisfaction, then turned to Shui Rong and said, "Yingluo will be my son in the future, you can't bully her."

Shui Rong didn't find it funny when he heard this. What does bullying mean? How could he bully Yingluo?After all, it was my mother who took Qin Keqing into her house, then raised Yingluo's status, and thought of everything for him out of consideration for him. She was really considerate.

Yingluo's cheeks were hot, her passionate eyes looked at Shui Rong, she wrung her embroidered handkerchief and said in a low voice: "The prince is kind to others and has never bullied any slave."

She wanted Shui Rong to bully her, but Shui Rong was magnanimous and never criticized her harshly. To say that he had bullied her was because the prince put his robe on her head yesterday. The strong smell was unbearable, but Looking back afterward, it seems to have a different feeling.
Thinking of this, Yingluo's eyes flashed, and her feet couldn't help but close together. This shy and timid figure was like a spring flower swaying in the wind, so beautiful and charming.Qin Mansion.

Qin Ye and Qin Keqing returned to the palace. In the hall, Qin Ye stroked his white beard and said in a deep voice: "So, the princess's intention is to let you, my daughter, serve in the palace for the sake of the prince."

After returning home, Qin Keqing had already made it clear to Qin Ye one by one what Princess Beijing asked her about. Qin Ye roughly understood the meaning, otherwise he wouldn't have inquired about these things.

Qin Keqing also understood the meaning. Thinking of Shui Rong's beautiful appearance, she couldn't help but put a blush on her cheeks. Who doesn't like handsome or beautiful people?Appearance control is something everyone has, it's just a slight or severe difference.

Qin Ye didn't notice Qin Keqing's expression. He was focused on the attitude of the Beijing Palace. The eldest son of the Beijing Palace has observed mourning for three years and has not married. Now that the deadline is approaching, he must choose the eldest concubine. In terms of family background, The Qin family cannot reach the level of the Beijing Prince's Palace, and it is obviously not the intention of the Beijing Princess to make Qin Keqing the crown prince's concubine. At present, it seems that she is just a concubine. Although the crown prince's concubine is difficult for others to match, But a concubine is a concubine after all, and it is difficult to reach the palace of elegance. After a long sigh, Qin Ye smiled bitterly and said: "How the Prince of Beijing knows about you, my daughter, is really strange."

Most of the daughters in ancient times stayed at home and stayed behind. Although the Qin family was a small family, they still observed this etiquette. The Beijing Palace suddenly summoned Qin Keqing, and they obviously knew about Qin Keqing, but there was no relationship between the Qin family and the Beijing Palace. Intersection, how to know Qin Keqing?

Qin Keqing didn't know why, but she felt uncomfortable when she saw Qin Ye's worried look on his face, and said in a clear voice: "Dad, since the princess has said something, there is no point in worrying. Besides, my daughter looks at the princess as a kind-hearted person. Nothing can go wrong."

Qin Keqing didn't know much about Princess Beijing, but when facing her worried adoptive father, Qin Keqing naturally picked her up and told her to comfort her adoptive father.

Qin Ye felt helpless when he heard this. Qin Keqing was right. It was a certainty that she would enter the palace. Now she could only think about the good. Thinking of this, Qin Ye warned: "Daughter, there are many rules in high-ranking families. Don't talk too much." If you do more, you can never go wrong.”

There are many red tapes in a wealthy family. If Qin Keqing enters the palace, he will inevitably violate taboos.

Qin Keqing nodded heavily when he heard this and said, "My daughter understands, don't worry, dad."

Qin Ye nodded, and immediately said nothing. Suddenly, the servant said: "Master, there is someone visiting outside the door, saying that he is from Duke Ning's mansion."

Qin Keqing saw that Qin Ye had a strange look on his face and was silent for a long time. Being a smart girl, she immediately understood that something was fishy. She pursed her lips and asked softly: "Dad, does our family have anything to do with Duke Ning's mansion?"

Duke Ning's family was from a high-ranking family, while the Qin family was from a small family. There was such a big difference, how could they come to visit him?Unless there is some connection, if not, just call them like the Prince of Beijing.

Qin Ye's face was complicated, and he sighed softly. Instead of explaining, he waved his hand and said, "Daughter, you go and see Jing Qing first."

Qin Keqing lowered her eyebrows. Since her father didn't want to say anything, she had nothing to do. She stood up, gave him a blessing, and left.
