Chapter 36
So while looking at his daughter's face, he talked about the benefits of entering the palace, the glory and wealth of being an imperial concubine, how glorious it is.She even hinted that... if she becomes a concubine and has power in the future, then no one needs to be afraid.

This "who" naturally included the Rong family, Shao Jingyu from the West Courtyard, and Shao Tongyun who went to Prince Qing's Mansion.

He took advantage of his daughter's desire to protect his relatives in the east courtyard, and administered a strong dose of medicine.

It was impossible for Xianhui to believe his father's nonsense, and he pretended to hesitate, but it was just to coax him.After hesitating for a long time, he said aggrievedly: "Father, I will never come back after I go."

"Well, what happened?"

Xianhui looked sad, choked up and said: "Father, I can't worry about my family."

She was originally at the same age as Jiaohua, and she was also beautiful. When tears filled her eyelashes, she looked very pitiful.

Shao Yuanheng couldn't help showing some pity, since he was his own flesh and blood after all, his tone became more relaxed, "Naturally, you can't come out of such a noble place as the imperial palace easily. But as long as you live a good life and become a master, the family It's safe and sound, so don't worry too much."

Xianhui's tears fell, "But I... just don't worry about my family."

"Stupid girl." Shao Yuanheng hurriedly beat the snake to follow her, "What are you worried about? Then according to you, how can you be at ease? Say, father will definitely let you go to the capital steadily."

Xian Hui just waited for this sentence, wiped away tears, and said seriously: "I want 5 taels of silver bills, and there will inevitably be expenses when I enter the palace later, and my mother, brother, and sister will also use some. The branch of the Shao family shop in Yanzhou, the house and the [-] mu of fertile land will be transferred to my brother, so I have nothing to worry about."

"You..." Shao Yuanheng's eyes widened, and he couldn't believe what he heard.

He never expected that the second daughter would open her mouth so loudly! 5 taels of silver bills, the branch of the Shao family shop in Yanzhou, the house, and [-] acres of fertile land——this is not a simple matter of money, it is a small half of the Shao family!

"Do you know what you're talking about?!" Shao Yuanheng said with a dark face.

Xian Hui's eyes were as clear as water, but she was firm, "Father, of course I know what I'm talking about, and I also know what entering the palace means. Since I may never return, how can I rest assured?" How about leaving? It’s not that I don’t know the heights of heaven and earth, and I didn’t dare to ask for more than I should.”

She spoke the truth from her heart, "I just thought, if dad can separate these things out in advance, not only can he marry his sister in a beautiful way, but in the future, if there is a big trouble between the east courtyard and the west courtyard, my brother can also take his mother to Yanzhou Live comfortably and peacefully, and there is nothing to worry about.”

Shao Yuanheng could understand.

What the daughter meant was that this part of the property belonged to the East Court, which was inherited by Shao Jingye, and did not ask for additional property.Her thinking can't be said to be wrong, she is indeed looking for a way out, to arrange the future of her mother, brother, and sister, and she has thought carefully and thoughtfully.

I couldn't help being suspicious, she had thought about it early in the morning.

Otherwise, at such a young age, it would be too psychic to calmly think of a way out so quickly.

But it is because of her intelligence, her scheming, and her future in the palace that I am willing to tolerate her again and again, and try my best to rely on her in everything.

Shao Yuanheng let out a long breath.

"Father." Xian Hui bid farewell softly, "This is a very important matter, you should think about it slowly."

This matter is not something that can be done by changing one's words and saying a few more good words to father.Not to mention that I have to make up for the grievances I have suffered, starting from the Rong family's mother and daughter's calculation of themselves, to Shao Jingyu pouring hot oil, and Rong's not long ago piercing herself with a golden hairpin, crying a jar of tears is useful.

Whether it's okay or not depends entirely on whether the father thinks it's worth it after weighing it.

Shao Yuanheng looked at the second daughter who was leaving gracefully, and his mood was complicated and unspeakable.

She is not the kind of ignorant little girl who doesn't know what it means to be a show girl in the palace--wealth and glory and death without a place to die are likely to be on the line.But she didn't cry, make trouble, or argue, but used it to demand huge protection of interests, desperately giving up herself, and keeping the lives of relatives around her at ease.

In her heart, her father should not be considered a relative.

A mocking smile appeared on the corner of Shao Yuanheng's mouth.

Xian Hui returned to the house, her mood fluctuating all the time.

That's right, I know that this show girl election will eventually be cancelled, but once I leave Jiangdu, who knows if I can come back after going to the capital?Such an accident is not impossible.

It is possible for her to be lucky, come back, and finally marry Lu Jianan and live her whole life.

It is also possible that I will never come back after staying in the capital.

——Life and death are unpredictable.

After all, Xianhui is only a teenager, and she has lived two lives, and she is still a little girl who has not yet left the court.When I think about leaving my relatives soon, the future is uncertain, and I may never be able to return to them, I feel as uncomfortable as if I have been stuffed with cotton, but there is no way to express this discomfort.

She opened the three-tiered drawer for jewellery, the golden collar inlaid with jade and gold, the gold phoenix hairpin with three tails, the emerald ring, the pearl earrings, the agate beeswax head flower, her gorgeous eyes would be dazzled. .

It is very likely that there will be no chance to use these things as a dowry.

Xianhui went to find the pillow of the fairy ganoderma lucidum again, and rubbed it carefully. This... Give it to my sister for safekeeping. In case she can't come back, it can also save the lives of Lu Jian and sister Qin.She found her sister with an embroidered pillow, pretending to be relaxed and said with a smile: "You must not guess what I put in it."

Ming Hui was doing embroidery work for the dowry, looked up, then lowered her head, "Buckwheat? Silkworm sand? It's cassia seeds, what else can there be?"

"Not at all." Xianhui endured the pain in her heart, and said with a smile: "It's all filled with fairy ganoderma."

"Ah?" Ming Hui stopped her needlework and said in surprise, "How much money would that cost?" After thinking about it, "We didn't have any money in the town at that time, where did you get the money to buy so many fairy ganoderma? Besides, you What did you buy it for?"

"I bought it with the gold leaves that the kings of the four counties gave me." Xianhui didn't dare to say that she once wanted to be gold jewelry, and lied: "I just heard people say that it's not easy to buy it when I come to Jiangjiang. I made one in advance. Hey, I’ve used it for a few months and it’s pretty good, so let me put it here, and you can try it later.”

Minghui scolded, "It's a waste of money! I don't want it."

Xianhui just wanted to give her sister a memory, remembering that the pillow was filled with fairy ganoderma, so she didn't persuade her deeply, "I put it on your bed." She also mumbled, "This is the fish playing lotus leaf pattern I embroidered , It's so good to watch." When I leave the draft, my sister will definitely remember today's passage and keep it well.

If he can't come back, these fairy ganoderma will definitely come in handy three years later.

When she was resting at night, Xianhui couldn't help but put her arms around her sister's arm and put her head on it, because of the upcoming parting, she was a little reluctant to part with her.

Minghui didn't know what was going on, but instead laughed, "What are you doing? Acting like a baby again."

Xianhui smiled and said, "I think my sister will get married soon, so I can't bear it."

"Bah!" Ming Hui spat at her, and then laughed again, "Aren't you still going to get engaged? I think Lu Jian seems to care about you, just wait, he will persuade his parents soon, and say goodbye to you." You proposed marriage."

Xianhui pursed her lips and smiled.

But in my heart, I was confused, and I probably would never be able to wait.

Under the night, the huge Prince Qing's Mansion gradually began to rest.

Today is Shao Tongyun's first night in the palace. According to the rules, the king of the big county will naturally come to stay overnight.

Gao Dun knew that she was pregnant now, so he didn't plan to do anything. He thought it was just to make face for the new couple, and just go through the motions.As soon as he entered the room, he saw a young and graceful beauty coming to salute, and raised his hand, "Forget it, you are a double body now, so you don't need to talk about those empty greetings."

Shao Tongyun smiled softly, "Etiquette cannot be discarded." Trying to build himself up mentally, he stepped forward, gently and gently served him as he took off his robe and lifted the quilt. Freeze again."

Gao Dun was half lying on the bed, looking up at her.

It is the youthful age of Ai, with beautiful features, dignified and gentle, compared with the girly appearance of the past, the current dress is more feminine.She wears a watermelon tourmaline bead flower on her head, which is eye-catching, and a pair of agate pendants on her ears, which are full of red, flickering, showing the playfulness of a young woman without losing her beauty.

Shao Tongyun smiled shyly, and said in a soft voice, "Your Majesty, you have been looking at me."

"Hey, forget it." Gao Dun withdrew his charming thoughts, after all, he was more concerned about his heirs, "Hurry up and sleep, don't freeze." He also thoughtfully said, "Take the quilt at night."

"Your Majesty, you are so caring." Shao Tongyun smiled sweetly, and her tone was that of a young girl who was ignorant and straightforward. She was both shy and nervous, leaning towards her with a tender willow-like figure, "I... am a little scared, can I Can't... sleep in the same bed with the county prince?"

Her voice became smaller and smaller, and a faint blush flew across her face.

The quilts in the Wangfu are all fumigated and warm, so it is not appropriate to say that they are afraid of the cold.

As for fear, who can say clearly about this?
Gao Dun is in the prime of life, and he is a little gentle and affectionate, how can he refuse the beauty's little request?Immediately lifted the quilt and let her in, "Come in." He also sighed, "You are a bit small after all, like a child."

Shao Tongyun looked at the unappetizing face, tried his best to smile coquettishly, "I'm not a child." He even squeezed towards him, and took advantage of the opportunity to hold his hand, "The prince's hand is a little cold, I Cover it for you." As he said, he stuck to the soft and warm place, "Is it warmer?"

"Hmm..." Gao Dun's body trembled slightly.

He couldn't help it, he stretched out his hand to pluck the broken hair from her temples, then slid down, and slid his finger into her mouth, feeling the warm and moist package, and thinking of the drunken fascination that day, his blood pulsed suddenly !
A night is hard to describe...

When he got up the next day, Gao Dun couldn't help regretting, "You are pregnant after all, let's sleep separately tonight."

"Your Highness." Shao Tongyun's eyes were full of water, "I see, I will sleep in a bed by myself, and I won't bother you anymore. If you are not at ease, you should go to bed first and wait until you fall asleep I'll sleep again." She stretched out her hand and lightly grabbed his sleeve, "New couples have to warm up their room for three days, Lord County, please save me some respect, but don't be dissatisfied with it for the first three days."

"I didn't blame you, and I didn't say I wouldn't come these two days." Gao Dun waved his hand, "I'll come back tonight, don't worry."

"Okay." Shao Tongyun smiled softly.

On the second day and the third day, the privilege of warming the house for the newcomers passed for three consecutive days.

On the fourth night, Gao Dun still went to Shao Tongyun's house.

Princess Dajun's complexion was a little ugly.

She couldn't say anything about Gao Dun, so she went to her cousin the next day and said, "It's not that I'm jealous. After all, you are a man with a body, so you should avoid it and don't act recklessly." Her tone was very concerned, "Look, we two Your prosperity and wealth all depend on the child in your womb."

Shao Tongyun responded gently and softly: "Okay, I will advise the county prince."

But after he finished talking, he still went his own way, looking arrogant and ignorant.

It's no wonder that Gao Dun favors her a little bit. It is needless to say that Princess Dajun is getting older. The other concubines are all offered to her husband by Princess Dajun. To be as charming as Shao Tongyun?She was raised by Miss Qianjin, so her charm is much higher, she is also young and beautiful, and she loves to act like a baby, so it is easy to please men.

She has been keeping the king of the big county overnight for more than ten days.She ignored the words of Princess Dajun, and ignored the faint complaints of other concubines. It was not until Princess Qing heard about it and sent her mother to bring nourishing medicinal materials over, that she took the initiative to persuade Prince Dajun to leave.

In front of Gao Dun, she looked very delicate, and said she was well-behaved, "I was young and ignorant before, and I only wanted to see the prince every day, and I forgot about others. I also want to see the prince. Now that I think about it, it's still the sisters Yulu Even better, everyone will get along more harmoniously in the future.”

She also warmly recommended, "Your Majesty, you can go to my cousin's place tonight."

Somehow, these words reached the ears of Princess Dajun.This time, Princess Dajun was so angry!Once the co-cousin comes, does the husband belong to her alone?She was just a concubine, and she dared to persuade her husband to come to her place without shame.

Bah, she needs to make way!
Princess Dajun's face was gloomy, and she was so angry that she kicked people out of the room and didn't speak for a long time.

In Shao's residence, the days passed peacefully day by day.

Xian Hui is not in a hurry, this is not the last time when she asked for jewelry, she had no support, and now she is threatening her father with the important matter of entering the palace, the chances of winning should not be small!In case his father refuses to agree and wants to send him into the palace for nothing to earn him wealth, then he will risk it all.

Either go see my good sister Shao Tongyun and let her beg the king of the great county to avoid the matter of entering the palace. She and the Rong family are definitely willing.Or simply shameless, ran to Concubine Qing and cried out, and Concubine Dajun would "help" herself when she heard the news.

They didn't dare to make trouble rashly because they were afraid of being accused of crimes, but if they made trouble by themselves, they "helped" themselves, so they could justly prevent themselves from entering the palace, and then take revenge on themselves severely.

So the enemy's resentment can still be used in this way?Xianhui couldn't help laughing.

"What are you silly about?" Minghui is wearing a cherry red overcoat with makeup, she is going to get married now, and Shen made a lot of red clothes for her, making her even more charming.Gently pushed the younger sister, leaned over, and whispered quietly: "Little girl, do you miss your son-in-law?"

"Bah!" Xianhui spat: "This is what my sister said."

The two sisters were giggling, you pushed me and laughed for a while.

"Be honest." Chen said with a smile, picked up the peony and silk flowers that the little daughter had dropped on the beauty's couch, and pinned them to her temples, "You are naughty, and you have brought your sister to ruin."

Xianhui pouted, "Mother depends on me for everything, it's clearly my sister who said first..."

"Don't say it!" Minghui hurriedly covered her mouth.

During the excitement, Shao Jingye came in excitedly, pushed the girl away, and said excitedly, "Father asked me to go to Yanzhou to be the shopkeeper of the semicolon, and he also said..." He quickly closed the door and lowered his voice, "Say Give me the shop in Yanzhou, put it in my name, and half a year later, you can add a generous dowry to the two younger sisters."

"Really?" Shen was very surprised, "Did you hear me right?!"

"You can't hear me wrong." Shao Jingye said brightly: "Father said, I will take me to the yamen in the next two days, and officially transfer the ownership of the shop to me. From now on, I will run everything. How much I go in and out is my own business." Son. In addition, there are [-] acres of fertile land and a big house over there, all transferred to me. When I go to Yanzhou in the spring, I don’t need to buy a house, just live in that house.”

This feeling is like a pie falling from the sky suddenly.

Ming Hui was dumbfounded.

Xian Hui knew what was going on but pretended not to understand, and was also stunned.

Shen thought about it carefully, "No, why did your father suddenly become so good? Besides, your father is strong and strong, so why should he not divide the family property now?"

"That's right." The light in Shao Jingye's eyes dimmed a little, and he added: "Father said, I think I am a material for doing business, and I must have a bright future in the future. Speaking of the West Courtyard, Jing Yu was used to it by Mrs. Rong since she was a child." A bit self-willed, ignorant, and not interested in business, I'm afraid I won't be able to support her in the future."

"What does he mean?" Shen's eyes gradually became vigilant, and she asked suspiciously.

"Father said that the east courtyard and the west courtyard are very quarreling nowadays, but they are still from the same Shao family. If he is gone in the future, let me... take care of Jing Yu for a while, at least not let him lose the family property It's shameless to live on the street after losing everything and having nothing to eat."
