Royal daughter-in-law

Chapter 56
The servant who delivered the things was a servant of Yingfuyuan. After handing the things to Shi Yao'an, he stood obediently in the courtyard waiting for a reply.

After a while, Shi Yao'an came out of the room and stood on the corridor: "The master said, I will ask your eldest girl for advice in two days. You can go to the accountant to collect the errand fee."

Not long after Ding of the Yun family left happily, "Dengdengdengdeng—" a big bay red horse stopped at the gate of Prince Qin's mansion.

The man tightened the rope, turned over and dismounted.

When the gatekeepers of the Wangfu saw the man, they didn't even ask any further questions. They pulled open the iron ring Zhumen, and welcomed the man directly into the Wangfu.

He was born with fine skin and tender flesh, a white face without beard, and a purple gold fish bag on his waist. He is Zhang Dehai, the chief eunuch of Cuiming Hall, and the servant of Helian.

Under the bright sun, Zhang Dehai's forehead was a little sweaty, but he walked like the wind, and went straight to the main courtyard.

As soon as the servants at the gate of the yard saw him, they all pushed away from the two sides and gave way of their own accord.

In the courtyard, Zhang Dehai faced the quiet main house, wiped off his sweat, and said in a trembling tone, "Third Lord, something happened to Concubine Helian!"

Glazed tiles and vermilion palace walls stand tall.

Cuiming Hall.

A beautiful woman in her thirties, with a slender and tall body, big eyes, high nose, pointed chin, rich and deep outline, more like a northern woman than the gentle facial features of a Central Plains woman, at the moment, dressed in dark She was dressed in a sky-blue palace dress with gold and silver silk and dark flowers, and her hair in a bun flowed down her fair neck like a waterfall. She was sitting upright in front of a rosewood desk, copying the Nv Ze Nv Ring.

"Your Majesty, why don't you take a break first and eat two mouthfuls of porridge before copying." The four personal maids begged bitterly.

There are obviously already a stack of copies at hand, at least seven or eight books, piled up like a small hill, the beautiful woman is still writing like a fly, and has no intention of stopping to rest.

A beauty in a palace costume, practicing calligraphy in front of the window, should have been a very beautiful picture. The beautiful woman's face is haggard and tired, and there is a light blood mark about two inches long on her left cheek, which has not closed yet, like a nail mark. People were shocked, coughing twice from time to time.

There was a mahogany food plate on the coffee table beside him, on which there were white, tender and smooth porridge and a plate of delicate appetizers, all without heat.

Outside the bead curtain.

Zhang Dehai stepped into the hall, and cupped his hands: "Mother, the third master has come to see you. You have been copying for three days, and you haven't eaten a single rice. You only ate a few mouthfuls of fruit in the middle. If you continue like this, you will be exhausted. I won't be able to take it anymore, I beg you to stop first, rest first, and take a bite because the third master rarely enters the palace once."

When Helian heard that King Qin had entered the palace, he loosened the brush in his hand, frowned his slender eyebrows, and suddenly became angry: "Zhang Dehai, who told you to inform King Qin? You made your own decisions again!"

"My concubine." Outside the curtain, Xiahou Shiting's steps sounded, "It's the emperor's idea."

He Lian sighed: "The emperor, go back, you can't interfere with the affairs of the palace, and the concubine is fine. The prince has no purpose, so he is not allowed to enter the palace at will. If someone with a heart wants to sue in front of the emperor, you will have to go to trouble again." Explain." The son is already dragged down because of his own status, how can he be made to suffer.

How can it be all right?Xiahou Shiting already knew everything from Zhang Dehaikou along the way.

A few days ago, Helian and Concubine Wei went to Fengzao Palace as usual to pay respects to Empress Jiang Peihan.

Because Helian's birthday will be in a few days, while talking and laughing, Empress Jiang conveniently gave her a nine-ring gold step shaker from her collection, saying that it was only a congratulatory gift.

It's fine if there are other things, but the nine-ring golden step is a treasure that the envoys of the Great Food Kingdom in the Western Regions paid tribute to Daxuan, and it has been kept in Empress Jiang's place. She hinted at it for a long time, but Empress Jiang didn't tell her, but now it was given to Helian.

After asking for peace, on the way back, Concubine Wei Gui was upset, she looked for an opportunity to attack Helianshi, and even became cruel, looking for a reason to beat Helianshi.Fortunately, there were a few new servants around Helian's recently, and Xiahou Shiting asked Rui Zhi to pick them up again, and they were all loyal and stopped them.

Concubine Wei Guifei didn't get any benefit, she was even more reluctant, she simply plucked her hair and went to Emperor Ningxi to complain, crying, saying that Helian's family disrespected her, and got up on the queen's hand.

Concubine Wei is the most favored concubine in the harem, how could Emperor Ning Xi not turn to her? Seeing that his sweetheart had been wronged in front of Concubine Wei, he slapped Helian's face. hurt.

Concubine Wei's jealousy disappeared, she pretended to be magnanimous, and acted coquettishly to stop Emperor Ning Xi, saying that it was fine, and told He Lian to burn incense and bathe, abstain from eating meat and oil within five days, and copied seventy or eighty copies of the "Nv Ze Nv Precept" That's enough, let her understand that the upper and lower ranks in the palace are strict, so that she doesn't dare to despise her anymore.

Helian's rank is not as high as that of Concubine Wei, and she has always been a person who doesn't like to make things big. Knowing that the more she explains, the more she will not be able to please her, so she silently acquiesced in her mistake, and went back to Cuiming Hall and started copying books. He didn't even have time to take a few mouthfuls of food, his physical strength was weak these days, and he lost a lot of weight. The palace people in Cuiming Hall were very anxious, and they couldn't stop persuading them, so they called the King of Qin.

Concubine Wei has always been cunning and domineering by relying on her favor and her natal family's military merits. It is not surprising that she targets the Helian family, but Xiahou Shiting knows that the biggest behind-the-scenes instigator of this incident is the seemingly gentle and loyal Empress Jiang. .

Concubine Wei and Concubine Helian fight, needless to say the one who loses, the one who wins will also be hated.Only Empress Jiang was the only one who reaped the benefits of the fisherman.

But no matter how wise and far-sighted, there are always shortcomings. Empress Jiang has no biological children so far. She was pregnant once when she was young, but she accidentally miscarried. The child was brought up under his name, and that child is the current crown prince Xiahou Shizhun.

It's just that I feel sorry for my mother, because of the Beiren's relationship, I can only bear it every time.After being silent for a while, Xiahou Shiting said: "If someone sues him, he will sue him at the father's place. I want to see if there is anything wrong with my son being filial to his mother."

"You..." Helian said helplessly.

Xiahou Shiting stepped forward a few steps: "Father just told my concubine not to eat meat and oil for five days, and didn't say that she is not allowed to eat vegetarian food."

Helian stared at the emperor's son, who had become more handsome and handsome in the past few years, no matter how old he was, he was still a child when he was in front of him, sighed, and finally picked up a spoon to scoop up a mouthful, and began to eat slowly.

After Helianshi finished eating, he just remembered something, and wiped his mouth with a silk handkerchief: "Shi Ting, you changed a batch of servants for me a while ago, why?"

"Is it easy for the concubine to use?" Xiahou Shiting asked.

"It's indeed much better than before." Helian said sincerely.

The four new personal servants sent in by the emperor secretly are named Qingchan, Lanting, Zishuang, and Chixia. They are indeed courageous and flexible. Concubine Wei's suffering.
