Yu Tang Golden Boudoir

Chapter 207 Attacks
The two sat in silence for a while, then Li Tian whispered to himself, "I don't know if King Shou suddenly called for a fight." The reason is that the officials are so old and in poor health, but Shou Wang suddenly invites him to go out. The reason for this is extremely shocking.

"He didn't mention it, and I didn't dare to ask more." The Fifth Prince smiled bitterly and said, "I can't test this matter. No matter why I suddenly called for a fight, I have no other choice. I will find an opportunity in two days to ask my eldest brother to come over to help. There is someone looking at me, big brother don’t worry, it’s convenient for me to communicate with big brother.” Li Tian nodded and sighed again, she refused to marry someone with lofty aspirations at the beginning, what she wanted to avoid was this kind of heaven in the blink of an eye. The danger of hell, who knows that man is not as good as heaven, is inevitable after all.

"Duke Ding's wife, Mrs. Qian, brought her daughter Jiuniang into the palace to greet Concubine Ye Gui." The fifth prince's topic changed suddenly, Li Tian frowned and said, "Sent Sun Jiuniang to the palace of Jian'an County in such a hurry? ...What good thing is it for Sun Jiuniang?" Li Tian didn't make it clear, now that the war in the north is about to start, it's time to reuse the Zhu family, Zhu Mingyan's pregnancy at this time is a happy event for the Zhu family, and for the fourth prince, No matter how good it is, a marriage is not reliable. If there is another eldest son, then this marriage can bring hope to the two generations of the Zhu family. At this time, what the fourth prince has to do is not to take concubines, but to Spreading the news, I decided and made others think that Zhu Mingyan must be pregnant with a boy.

"Everyone has their own plans." The fifth prince understood Li Tian's meaning, and said with a chuckle: "Too much help and too much attachment is not necessarily a good thing. Each family has its own plans, and each has its own plans." People's thinking, everyone wants to do things that are beneficial to themselves, and tear down other people's platforms by the way, and they all focus on grabbing the most favorable seat first and standing up. If there is civil strife, it is not helping." Li Tian sighed. He said in a tone: "Before it's done, let's sit on the ground and share the spoils first, all wanting to grab the merits of the dragon, that's right, no one is guilty of sacrificing themselves to benefit others, and I don't know if Concubine Ye Gui can understand."

"Concubine Ye Gui has a little cleverness but not great wisdom. Besides, I always feel that my eldest brother is quite capable in the ban. At least there is nothing in the ban that can be hidden from him. We can understand this matter, and the eldest brother can also understand it. Wait. Look, if two days later, Sun Jiuniang really enters the Prince's Mansion of Jian'an County..." The fifth prince's words suddenly stopped, he stayed for a while and raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "If that's the case, the elder brother might go to ask the old Hou Ye to come out of the mountain as his deputy. handsome."

Li Tian thought for a while, wanted to say something, but swallowed the words again. Sun Jiuniang looked a bit like herself, and she was imitating herself everywhere with ulterior motives. How about helping her?Well, this matter can only be done but cannot be said, especially not in front of the fifth prince. Li Tian glanced at the fifth prince and shut his mouth knowingly.

In the early morning of the next day, Li Tian left the main courtyard to go to the meeting hall, just after turning two corners, Mother Qiao rushed a few steps forward from the roadside pavilion and bowed her knees to salute, "Greetings to the princess."

"Are you waiting for me here? What's the matter?" Li Tian didn't stop, just raised his hand, and asked with a smile as he walked. Qiao Momo quickly glanced at Xiong Momo, and the person next to Li Tian The one who makes her jealous the most is this Mammy Xiong, who bowed slightly, followed Li Tian respectfully half a step behind Li Tian and said with a smile, "I'm not waiting for the princess. If it's important, I want to report it to the princess."

"Well, tell me."

Mammy Xiong coughed several times, looked left and right, Li Tian was walking in front, neither saw nor wanted to see her movements, Mammy Xiong, Qingzhi and others saw her, glanced at Li Tian, ​​but just pretended Unable to see, Mother Qiao had no choice but to take a few steps forward and said in a low voice, "I have a few very important things to report to the princess."

"Oh?" Li Tian paused, looked left and right and said with a smile, "Just say it, there are no outsiders here." Mother Qiao laughed a few times, seeing Li Tian only paused, and walked forward in a leisurely manner After leaving, it seemed that she didn't take these very important words to her heart at all. Mother Qiao followed a few steps, and seeing that she was about to leave the garden, she leaned over and said in a low voice: "I've been thinking about this for several days. , If you don’t remind the princess, it’s the servant’s fault to make the princess lose her reputation because of this? Although this is not what the servants should say, I really dare not mention it to the princess.”

"Speak directly if you have something to say." Li Tian's voice was gentle, but his words were not polite. Mother Qiao swallowed in embarrassment. She didn't want to say this, but she had to.

"The concubine is a rare virtuous person. Everyone in the house can see it clearly, but outside... there are bad words spread, and Madam Wu came to our house to teach. It should be said, but the servants don’t say anything, because they are afraid that one day Wu Mama will say something, and the princess will not be able to deal with it. Now that the prince does not have a suitable waiter, it will damage the reputation of the princess. It is better for the princess to pick a few Putting a suitable person by the prince's side is better than putting someone in the prince's room regardless of the concubine's wishes after Madam Wu said something, don't you think?"

"Oh..." Li Tian slowed down, turned his head and looked at Mother Qiao, he couldn't tell whether it was a smile or disdain, but he glanced at Mother Qiao, then turned his head, and ordered in a casual tone as he walked: " Mammy has been worrying about who should be arranged by your prince's side since the first day she entered the mansion. It's really embarrassing for Mammy. Since Mammy puts all her heart on this, then I will entrust this important matter to you. The prince is precious, so the people around him must be carefully selected, so let me trouble you to pick a few concubines for the prince, um, how about this." Li Tian frowned slightly, thought carefully and said: "Fifth Lord There is an elder brother above, and you can never go wrong if you learn from your elder brother. How your fourth master chooses this concubine, you can choose for your prince, but you can't go past your elder brother. Just follow the fourth master and take two steps back to choose. Yes, you have said it several times, your lord is picky, don't be lazy, you have to choose one out of ten, you pick four or five first, and I will pick with you lord."

Mother Qiao was dumbfounded when she heard what she said. How can there be a reason for slaves to choose concubines for the master's house?Besides, the concubine has clearly stated that she will be selected from among the noble girls in the capital according to the example of the king of Jian'an.The king of Jian'an chose the side concubine, but the noble concubine was in charge, so no matter what, he couldn't agree to it!
"Wangfei Mingjian, how dare a slave servant choose someone for the prince, isn't that..."

"Then what do you mean by what you said just now?" Li Tian stopped suddenly, turned around and stared at Qiao Mama, his face was full of frost, and his tone was sharp: "Since you said that there is no one around your lord, you are asked to give your lord Picking people, and you refuse to accept the errand, does that mean, are you picking on me? Picking on me for failing to do the errand you gave me? Is the mother in charge of this mansion, or the old ancestor of this mansion? I don't know, is it possible that the nanny came to this mansion from the forbidden center, and she didn't receive an errand from the palace, but came to be my mother-in-law?"

Mother Qiao had never seen Li Tian get angry before, let alone Li Tian turned his face so quickly, she was stunned for a while, looking at Li Tian with a blushing face, she was dumbfounded and didn't realize it, Qingzhi hurried forward She pushed her and said, "Why are you still standing? You still haven't apologized!" Only then did Mother Qiao come to her senses, she knelt on the ground with a plop, and just as she opened her mouth to defend herself, Li Tian stared at her coldly and said, " I respect your seniority, but I respect you for being a demon moth. You are well-informed, but you tell me that a slave like you who doesn't care about business and only thinks about stuffing people into men's rooms, if you let go In another family, how should I deal with it? Are you bullying my good temper? Or are you bullying my natal family? "

"I don't dare, my concubine, please find out the meaning of this slave..." Seeing Li Tian's words getting heavier, Mother Qiao hurriedly opened her mouth to explain. Li Tian stepped back half a step, and said coldly, "Don't dare? You already Dare, if I indulge you again, will you force me to tie up your lord and send you to the beauty's house in the next step? Whether I am virtuous or not, is up to you? Kneel down!" said After that, Li Tian turned around and left. Mammy Xiong was half a step behind, and beckoned a little girl to come over and said, "Look carefully, someone will replace you before you go." The little girl shrank her neck and nodded, seeing Mammy Xiong After leaving, he took a few steps back, and then took a few steps back, standing upright, and he really fell in love with Mother Qiao by mistake.

In the conference hall, Madam Wu was already standing upright at the door waiting, seeing Li Tian coming in, she bowed her knees to salute, and followed Li Tian into the conference hall, Li Tian sat down on the kang, motioned for Qing Zhi to guard At the door of the room, he turned his head to look at Nanny Wu, said a few words about how to deal with Nanny Qiao, looked at Nanny Wu and said: "Mommy Qiao is so harsh, is it reasonable for slaves? Besides, the fifth master is full The prince who reads poetry and books, if I have lost my virtue, how can I stand in front of the fifth master? If according to Mother Qiao's intention, wouldn't it be that the fifth master took concubines for the sake of taking concubines? Is this what scholars do? I know The nanny made a special trip to come to the house to teach. Firstly, because I had few people to teach me since I was a child, she wanted to teach me to behave in accordance with the norms of a royal daughter-in-law, so I must not make a mistake; , hurt the virtues, and hurt the dignity of the royal family. But the fifth master and I have been married for less than a year, and I have not been seriously ill, so I will be forced to take a concubine for the fifth master over and over again, which reason is this?"

Li Tian's sudden outburst stunned Grandma Wu, she looked at Li Tian with a frosty face, and replied in a daze: "There is indeed something wrong with Grandma Qiao's words and deeds, but after all, she is a woman in the palace. The nanny who was sent to be in charge, it is reasonable to say that even a cat and dog given by my parents should be more respectable, and the princess punished her to kneel in public, I am afraid that it will damage filial piety."

"Mommy was sent by the official's family. So Mama Qiao was also ordered by the government? I don't know, or should I respect anyone who comes out of the ban as an ancestor? Li Tian narrowed his eyes and smiled slightly, Mama Wu's face changed slightly, she thought for a while and said nothing, seriously speaking, Li Tian and the fifth prince only have one father, that is the official family, besides that, Concubine Ye Gui, No matter how expensive she is, she is still a concubine, but she is in charge of the harem, but she is not a regular wife, so naturally she is not the aunt of the sons. The concubine has to obey three years of filial piety. Except for the aunt, there is only the biological mother, who must be filial at ordinary times. Seriously speaking, only the aunt That is to say, Concubine Ye Gui, the Fifth Prince and Li Tian are not even considered elders, and the people who come around her are indeed not filial. What the princes are afraid of is her power, not the etiquette.Nanny Wu understood Li Tian's words in a blink of an eye, so she was naturally speechless.

Li Tian breathed a sigh of relief, turned his eyes away, picked up his cup and took a sip of tea and said, "I respect her, she really thinks that she is a member of my uncle's business in this house, kneel down to wake up, treat her There are only benefits." Mammy Wu looked at Li Tian with complicated eyes, did this 'her' refer to Nanny Qiao, or herself?Or Concubine Ye Gui?These days in the mansion, she can see clearly that in this mansion, the princess and the prince are indeed one, and that lord is the prince... Although Madam Wu couldn't understand why Li Tian suddenly became angry with Madam Qiao, she wisely kept silent up.
