Daughter of Hou's Mansion

185 The Snipe and the Clam Fight

Qingluan couldn't help being shocked when he heard this, Concubine Xiao?It turns out that this woman who looks like an orchid in the empty valley is the side concubine of Prince Qin. Logically, she should be over forty years old, but her face is undoubtedly that of a woman in her thirties. It's no wonder that she can become No.1 in the backyard of Prince Qin's Mansion.

Qingluan couldn't help but think of the two arrogant nuns sent by the old side concubine Xiao in Hot Spring Zhuangzi last time, and forced Shangguanjue to jump off the wall. It is more poisonous.

"The last time our lord sent a letter, he said that the son is getting old and it's time to marry a wife. Let my concubine find one for him. Empress Dowager, this Miss Jiang is very good in appearance and manners. You see Compatible with Jueer?" Concubine Xiao said to the Queen Mother.

Qingluan's heart tightened suddenly, this side concubine Xiao actually wanted to take advantage of Shangguanjue's marriage, seeing how she sang and drank with Mrs. Lu Guogong, it was obvious that an agreement had been reached in private, so today Only Mrs. Lu Guogong would bring Jiang Yao into the palace. 13acv.

If it is under the Queen Mother's order, then Shangguan Jue must marry Jiang Yao. Qingluan's mind is confused for a while, and there is no room for her to speak in such a situation. If the Queen Mother agrees all of a sudden, what should I do?

I only heard the Empress Dowager smile slightly, and said: "This girl from the Jiang family has a beautiful heart, so she is naturally good..."

Qingluan subconsciously held her breath, and the hands resting on her knees couldn't help clenching the veil tightly, because her knuckles were turning white from too much force.

"It's just that, I have promised the demon king of the world and agreed to let him choose his own wife, not to mention that the wife is his own and he should like it." The old queen really loved Shangguanjue.

Only then did Qingluan heave a sigh of relief, only feeling a tight pain in his chest.

Concubine Xiao said with a smile: "The empress dowager is Jue'er's elder, and Jue'er has always respected you. If you ask, Jue'er will definitely not respond."

Qingluan couldn't help but cast a glance at Concubine Xiao, this is the woman who applied her weakness to the extreme, the faint smile on the corner of her mouth seemed to be completely for Shangguan Jue's sake, but what was inside didn't matter. Only she knows.

Luan was suspicious of the earthquake.At this time, I heard the eunuch come in and report: "The Empress Dowager Hui brought the eldest prince to pay her respects to the Empress Dowager."

This Shangguan Rui has not been able to give birth to a son, which is also the pain in the heart of the old queen. After finally having a big prince, the old queen is extremely happy in her heart. After all, she has a son, and the throne is not considered as having no successor. .

"It's windy outside, please come in soon." The old empress only remembered the eldest prince for a while, so she threw side concubine Xiao and Jiang Yao aside.

The smile on Concubine Xiao's face remained the same, she just beckoned to let Jiang Yao sit beside her, as if she had decided to be her daughter-in-law.

After a while, Concubine Hui led a group of people in, because Concubine Hui's figure was still plump after giving birth to a child, she wore a rose-red palace dress, and on her head was a golden swing with a phoenix holding a bead. , with a beaming and smug smile on Yuanyuan's face.Having given birth to Shangguan Rui's only son, it's no wonder Concubine Hui is proud.

Next to Concubine Hui was a strong woman, holding a big red baby in her arms, that was the eldest prince who was born with a golden spoon in his mouth, who was just full moon today.

Behind them are the old acquaintances Qian Shi and Qin Cai. They both had smiles on their faces. When Qian Shi came in, he glanced at the old lady intentionally or unintentionally. His eyes seemed to show off, and Qingluan lowered her eyes slightly. Head, curving the corners of the mouth, the Qin family is crazy because of this eldest prince, but they may have forgotten that the eldest prince is not a prince now!

Even if he was Shangguan Rui's only son, but that kitten-like person died young if one failed, their complacency would have been premature.

Concubine Hui led a group of people to kneel down to say hello, the queen mother hurriedly got someone to help her up, and said: "Hurry up, bring me here, let Ai's family see my grandson, I haven't seen him all night, Ai's family was thinking panicky. "

The nanny who was holding the eldest prince hurried forward, and the queen mother took it over, teasing and saying, "It's exactly the same as when the emperor was young!"

Mrs. Lu Guogong's eyes sank slightly, but the Qin family took the lead and gave birth to a son.

Seeing that the Empress Dowager liked it, Concubine Hui couldn't help jokingly said: "The emperor also said that Xiaobao's temper is also the most like him."

A sarcasm flashed across Qingluan's eyes, how could such a young child have a temper?

Because of the arrival of Concubine Hui and the First Prince, everyone's compliments were naturally directed at these two, and the smile on Concubine Hui's face became even brighter for a while.

"Sister is really a lucky person, to be loved by the Queen Mother!" Qin Cai boasted.

The queen mother said with a smile on her face: "Your sister gave birth to the first prince for the Shangguan family, and she is a great hero of my Shangguan family!"

Concubine Hui hurriedly walked to the Empress Dowager's side, bent down and said, "The Eldest Prince is the closest imperial grandmother, once he entered the Palace of Compassion, he opened his eyes."

At this moment, the First Prince happened to open a pair of grape-like black eyes, which only softened the Empress Dowager's heart.Concubine Hui glanced at Concubine Xiao, and said to the Queen Mother: "Your Majesty, today is a day of great joy, and I dare to ask for a favor from the Empress Dowager."

Qingluan couldn't help admiring Concubine Hui a little bit. After giving birth to a son, she even dared to make a request to the Queen Mother. Isn't it right for a concubine in the harem to have children for the royal family? Quaidi's IQ plummeted?

The queen mother still smiled at Mimi, and no one could see her emotional changes.

"Oh, tell me!"

The queen mother didn't directly agree, so she must be feeling a little uncomfortable, right?Qingluan was standing behind the old lady, there really were good shows going on in this palace all the time.

"My sister, my concubine, is 16 years old now, and there is still no one else. I want to ask the queen mother to point out a marriage, which is also to give the Qin family a face." Concubine Hui pulled Qin Cai to her side with a smile. Her cheeks were slightly red, but her eyes were shy and charming.

Today is really a good day, one and two are selling their own girls.

The Empress Dowager stared at Qin Cai for a while, and said: "You look like Zhou Zheng, but Concubine Hui has someone to choose?" All this has come to her. If the family is suitable, it will be cheaper to make an imperial edict by yourself. Give Concubine Hui this face.

"Empress Dowager, the last time I saw King Qin's son in the Palace of Compassion, I paid attention to it. The son of King Qin is almost [-] years old and hasn't married yet. Presumably side concubine Xiao is also in a hurry?" Qin absolutely dare not mention this, after all, there is still a long distance between the Qin family and Prince Qin's residence.

But since giving birth to his son, Qin Qin has already regarded his own son as the future prince, and the Qin family is the mother's family of the future prince, so this status is completely different.Qin Cai is the daughter of the Qin family's prostitute, so she is the best choice for her appearance. This son of King Qin has such a rambunctious reputation, so it is enough for Qin Cai to match him.

Qingluan smirked slightly. She was still nervous when Concubine Xiao proposed to hire Jiang Yao for Shangguan, but this time she was only in the mood of watching a play. It was not a coincidence that Concubine Hui came. The queen mother just rejected Xiao Concubine Hui, of course she won't agree to Concubine Hui this time.

But Concubine Hui's appetite is really big, she is going to use Qin Cai to win over Prince Qin's mansion behind Shangguanjue, so she is not afraid of being overwhelmed.

Looking at Mrs. Lu Guogong, her eyes fell on Qin Cai, obviously she was evaluating which of the two daughters is better. In this competition between snipe and clam, it is not known which fisherman will benefit.

The empress dowager narrowed her eyes slightly, and then she laughed and said, "Today is really a coincidence. Just now Concubine Xiao said that the Jiang family girl is compatible with Jue'er, and now Concubine Hui thinks that the Qin family girl is suitable. The girls of the two families are naturally good, but Aijia and the emperor have already agreed that the devil incarnate will not interfere in his marriage, the two girls can rely on their own abilities, if they can fall into the eyes of the devil in chaos, Aijia will make an order What's the harm in giving a marriage?"

Qingluan blinked her eyes, seeing that the Queen Mother still had a kind smile on her face, she couldn't help admiring her, these light and delicate words completely ignited the fire, she could feel Jiang Yao and Qin Cai's sympathy. The women's gazes sparked sparks in the air.

When Concubine Hui heard what the Queen Mother said, her eyes flicked over Mrs. Lu Guogong and Jiang Yao, and a touch of sarcasm flashed in her flying eyes. The Jiang family is actually trying to plan for the son of King Qin. Hehe, she gave birth to a son. Jiang Yuan looked calm, but in fact she didn't know how anxious she was, but if the Qin family couldn't get the support of Prince Qin's mansion, she wouldn't let the Jiang family get it.

Princess Duanmin hugged the eldest prince in the empress dowager's arms, and said teasingly: "I really never thought that Shangguanjue would become a sweet potato one day. Haven't Mrs. Lu Guogong and Concubine Hui heard of the number one dude in Shangjing?" Fame? Concubine Xiao, I heard that there are many beauties in Shangguanjue's Red Sleeve Mansion, even more beautiful than the beauties in the harem, but is it true?"

Princess Duanmin's words made Mrs. Lu Guogong and Concubine Hui's faces stiff for a moment. Princess Duanmin's words were full of sarcasm, except that they sent their daughters to hell in order to win over Prince Qin's mansion. Yes, but her status is noble, and they are not easy to offend.

Mrs. Lu Guogong smiled and said: "The Prince of Qin is still young, so he will inevitably be unstable. When he gets married, he will be sensible."

Princess Duanmin let out a "hum", and the laughter was a little bit more mocking in other people's ears.

Qingluan couldn't help pursing her lips. This Princess Duanmin probably hated the world, so she was upset to see everyone, and everyone wanted to sarcasm, but seeing her mocking the Jiang family and the Qin family so unscrupulously still made her feel uncomfortable. Her heart felt refreshed.

ps: Uh, it's three o'clock in the blink of an eye, so it's 6000, Xiaoyu has worked so hard, why don't you come out to spread flowers?
