It is not easy to be a son-in-law of the farm gate

Chapter 700 Concubine Sheng

Women don’t have a lot to learn like men. Not all books can be read by women. After finishing the Four Books for Women, they will read the Book of Songs at most, and they have nothing to learn. Most of them will let them learn women’s Red embroidery, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, etc.

There is not such a heavy schoolwork in modern times, and girls often go to school for two or three years and they are done.

Lin Qianqing and Xie Qinyun met in a girls' school. They were the Four Books for Women and the Book of Songs in the middle school. They started learning at the age of ten and ended at the age of 13.

Said it was going out to play, but to the princess, it was nothing more than a visit to the imperial garden.

In summer, the lotus in the lotus pond is in full bloom.There are many early lotus flowers that have already produced lotus pods, and this is probably the last round of flowers blooming.

"Ninth Princess, you like painting, but do you like painting the lotus in this pond?"

Since being in contact with the Ninth Princess and Cui Yingying, Gu Youyou discovered that Cui Yingying is a student of medical skills who are in the [-]th classics, and she can see all the complicated medical skills.As for the princess, she wanted to study medicine. Maybe it was because she saw her mother and concubine sick when she was a child, and she had some hopes. What she really likes is painting, so Gu Youyou decided to do what she liked, and the two of them taught separately, and taught the princess how to paint.

The nine princesses climbed on the railing of the lotus pond and looked at the lotus in the pond seriously.After a while, she turned around and told Gu Youyou: "The lotus here is not the most beautiful in the palace. I have seen a kind of lotus that is as red as fire. On that lotus pond, it is like a spark that blooms. It is very beautiful. .If I want to paint a lotus, I will paint that kind.”

After hearing this, Gu Youyou was overjoyed. She guessed that the fire-like lotus mentioned by Princess Nine must be the fire lotus in Yanchi.

I heard that this is the treasure of the imperial palace. In the past, the Yanchi was often protected by Zhuzhaozhu. After the Zhuzhaozhu disappeared, the flower was not as red as it used to be.

"Is there such a lotus? Why have I only seen white lotus and pink lotus?" Cui Yingying said.

Ninth Princess patted her chest and promised, "Of course, I've seen it. If you don't believe me, I can show you to see it!"

Gu Youyou is overjoyed.

But at this time, there was a concubine walking towards them in the distance. Looking at the clothes, the concubine's grade was not low.

In fact, Gu Youyou has seen many concubines before, but this is the first time she has seen this woman who looks about 40 or [-] years old.

The Ninth Princess and Cui Yingying hurriedly bowed down when they saw her: "I pay my respects to the imperial concubine."

She turned out to be a noble concubine?
Gu Youyou heard from Lin Qianqing that besides the empress, there was another noble concubine in the palace who dared to challenge the same empress. The only noble concubine was the second prince's biological mother - Concubine Sheng.

This girl was the personal maid of the former Crown Princess. After the death of the Crown Princess, the Emperor who was still the Crown Prince at that time raised her to be a concubine, then a concubine, and a side concubine. Today, she is only a head shorter than the Queen.

She looks average, and she has no natal family, so it can be said that she has no background.Everyone is rumoring that the biggest reason why the emperor dotes on her is probably because of the empress dowager.

Thinking about it carefully, isn't Concubine Sheng's situation similar to that of the Queen Mother back then?After his own young lady died, he loyally protected the young lady's child.The eldest princess is spoiled in her hands.

But her luck was better than that of the queen mother back then. She was protecting the princess of the old master, but she gave birth to a son, and the emperor really doted on her. She had never suffered a disadvantage in front of the queen.
