The concubine is addicted to the world

Chapter 323, It's Lu Ning
That night, Lu Linen took Lu Ning away, and Princess Xinyang stayed up all night.

The next morning, when it was still light, Princess Xinyang entered the palace.

"What, Ning'er is sick?" Emperor Yu Sheng looked worried and anxious, "I will send the imperial doctor right away, don't worry, no wonder no one saw Ning'er yesterday."

Princess Xinyang shook her head, "No need, brother, Lin En has already taken Ning'er to find Master Yunwu. Ning'er is an old disease, and it should be fine if it is old."

After hearing this, Emperor Yusheng breathed a sigh of relief, and said worriedly, "I'll find an imperial doctor to take care of her later, my daughter's body is delicate, so don't delay."

Princess Xinyang nodded quickly, "Brother, there is one more thing. The queen mother chose Lu Xi as the concubine yesterday. Although she was satisfied and praised Lu Ying, she didn't give her a marriage. I'm not afraid of [-], just in case. If the queen mother takes aim at Ning Sister..."

Princess Xinyang hesitated to speak, and looked at Emperor Yusheng anxiously.

Emperor Yusheng frowned when he heard the words, his mind turned quickly, and he probably guessed the intention of Princess Xinyang, so he had to guard against this matter.

"Xinyang, I remember that the Empress Dowager has a tonic in her hand. If you can ask for it, sister Ning's illness will definitely improve as soon as possible."

Emperor Yusheng thought about it, Princess Xinyang was surprised at first, but she quickly realized it.

"Success! I'll go to the Queen Mother right away." Princess Xinyang didn't dare to delay, for fear that the Queen Mother Lu would issue an order.

"Well, let's go." Yu Shengdi waved his hand.

Princess Xinyang immediately went to Xining Palace, and Nanny Lu happened to come out. Seeing Princess Xinyang's eyes were red, she asked.

"What happened to the princess this early in the morning? The queen mother just got up."

Princess Xinyang wiped the corners of her eyes, "Please tell me, I have something very important to ask the Queen Mother. The princess misused peach blossom wine at the concubine selection banquet yesterday, which caused an old illness. I am here to ask for medicine. .”

Mother Lu was a little surprised at first, and then looked at Princess Xinyang questioningly, seeing that her expression did not seem to be fake, so she said, "Princess, please wait a moment, and let the slaves go in and report."

"Thank you, Ma'am." Princess Xinyang walked back and forth anxiously, tightly clutching the handkerchief.

Seeing this, Mother Lu hurried back into the hall.

Empress Dowager Lu had just finished washing and was sitting in front of the mirror to make up, her eyes half-closed, she was obviously in a good mood.

"Is the prince here? This child came to eat with Ai's family early in the morning, and he didn't take much rest. You should be quicker."

The unconcealable love in Empress Dowager Lu's eyes hurt Lu Xi to the bone.

Nanny Lu quickly explained, "Back to the Queen Mother, it's not the prince, but the princess who came to ask for medicine for the princess. The princess accidentally drank peach blossom wine yesterday, which caused her old illness. The princess is waiting outside the palace."

The Empress Dowager Lu frowned when she heard the words, "What kind of moth did you come up with? These two brothers and sisters are both virtuous. Could it be that they thought they had climbed up to the East Chu, and their tails were up to the sky, hmph!"

Simply overwhelmed!
When Empress Dowager Lu got angry, the waiters behind her became more and more cautious. Even so, Empress Dowager Lu was still dissatisfied, "I haven't finished it all morning, it's delaying things!"

"The servant deserves to die, I beg the empress dowager to forgive me."

Empress Dowager Lu waved her hand, "Back off, you'll be upset just looking at it, there are some people who don't know the fun in such a good atmosphere!"

Nanny Lu was well aware of Empress Dowager Lu's temperament, so she stepped forward slowly and boldly helped Empress Dowager Lu tidy up her appearance.

"Your Majesty, the servant looks at the princess with anxiety, it doesn't seem like a fake, the princess must be seriously ill, otherwise, according to the princess's temperament, she won't come to Xining Palace."

When Empress Dowager Lu heard the words, she smiled at Nanny Lu reflected in the mirror, "There's no need to comb, send someone to check, the one who entered Xinyang's palace was Kunqian Palace."

Nanny Lu was slightly surprised, "Queen Dowager."

"Go!"

Nanny Lu nodded when she heard the words, and quickly backed away, and came back after a while, her face a little puzzled.

"Your Majesty's words are very true. The princess entered the palace as soon as she opened the palace gate. She went to the Kunqian Palace. After staying for a stick of incense, she came to Xining Palace."

Empress Dowager Lu sneered, stretched out her hand and slowly pulled out the beaded hairpin from her temples, "Go and tell the people outside that Ai's family has a headache and feels unwell. It must be due to fatigue yesterday, so it is not appropriate to disturb."

Nanny Lu nodded, and immediately went to do so, expressing the Queen Mother Lu's intention.

Princess Xinyang took a deep breath, lifted the hem of her skirt and knelt down on the ground, kneeling straight, how could she not have guessed that this was the temptation and test of the Empress Dowager Lu.

For the sake of Lu Ning, Princess Xinyang can endure anything.

"I sincerely come to ask for medicine, and ask the Queen Mother to help me."

"Princess, hey!" Nanny Lu had no choice but to persuade Empress Dowager Lu, and returned to the palace, but Empress Dowager Lu looked as expected.

"Hmph, do you think you can escape this way? If your wings are hardened, you will lose your mind. If necessary, you will need to repair them. Call Princess Qin to the palace before dark, and don't worry about the rest. A little tired."

Empress Dowager Lu rubbed her forehead, thinking about something quickly in her mind, feeling restless for a while, full of annoyance in her heart.

Since the moment Princess Xinyang came back, Empress Dowager Lu has never calmed down. She forgot about Emperor Yusheng for a while, and let him take advantage of the loopholes to get on the line of Dongchu.

The more Empress Dowager Lu thought about it, the more irritable she became, and she became very irritable. It drove Yu Shengdi into a hurry. It was really not worthwhile to injure one thousand enemies and eight hundred.

Empress Dowager Lu wanted to hand over the Great Yong River to Lu Xi intact. She was a little too soft-hearted before, so she should cut the mess quickly.

If Emperor Yusheng bowed his head to the Eastern Chu, and Dayong changed from a country to a city, the Empress Dowager Lu would absolutely not accept it, and she would be the first to kill Princess Xinyang's family!
Empress Dowager Lu narrowed her eyes, no one dared to disturb her, and Nanny Lu stood by.

Outside, Princess Xinyang's body was a little shaky, the sky was getting dark, and finally she couldn't help but fainted.

There was a loud bang, unusually loud in this quiet time.

Empress Dowager Lu opened her eyes, glanced at the sky, and laughed at the corners of her mouth.

"Empress Dowager, the princess is waiting in the side hall." Nanny Lu said slowly.

Empress Dowager Lu nodded, "Let her in."

After a while, Princess Qin came in with Nanny Lu, and slowly saluted Empress Dowager Lu who was on the couch.

"The minister's wife pays homage to the empress dowager, and the empress is blessed and safe."

Empress Dowager Lu waved her hand, and Nanny Lu immediately retreated with the maid.

Empress Dowager Lu glanced at Princess Qin again, "Sit down, there is something Aijia wants to discuss with Princess Wang."

Princess Qin hurriedly said that she didn't dare.

King Qin's Mansion

"Mother, it's been almost three hours since grandma entered the palace, why hasn't she come back?"

Lu Ying was absent-minded all night, and kept asking the maid to inquire at the concierge, walking up and down the room anxiously.

Mrs. Meng smiled, "Why are you anxious? In the past, your grandmother often went to the palace to catch up with the queen mother, and I didn't see you in a hurry. What's the matter today?"

Lu Ying's face immediately turned red when she heard the words, and she glanced coquettishly at Mrs. Meng, "Mother, if you laugh at your daughter, she will not obey you."

It was rare for Mrs. Meng to see Lu Ying's little daughter-like side, and her mood improved accordingly.

"Silly boy, it's yours who can't escape. Your grandmother wants to love you. Your grandmother has a good relationship with the queen mother. Who can compare to you in Shengjingli's family background and talent?"

The Meng family doted on Lu Ying from the bottom of their hearts. She had been doting on her since she was a child. All the good ones were presented to Lu Ying. Even the girls in the house did not dare to compete with Lu Ying and avoided the edge.

Lu Ying, who was still a little worried at first, finally felt a lot more at ease after listening to Meng Shi's words, but she was still a little puzzled.

"Mother, why didn't the Queen Mother mention it yesterday?"

Lu Ying was always puzzled. According to reason, yesterday's concubine selection banquet should be given to the world and announced to the world, but there has been no movement.

Lu Ying's words were not worried by the Meng family. Almost everyone in Shengjing thought that Lu Ying was the default concubine.

After thinking about it for a second, the Queen Mother had intended to win over Prince Qin's mansion, and Lu Ying was the most suitable position for the Crown Princess, so Meng was relieved.

"Okay, I heard that the Queen Mother is feeling unwell. Didn't I find your grandmother today? Maybe it's a discussion, so you don't have to worry about it."

Meng said comfortingly.

Lu Ying nodded, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, "It's what mother said. The queen mother praised her daughter in person yesterday. It was the first job. Besides the daughter, who else is qualified to be the crown prince?"

After a while, the little servant girl hurried over, "Madam, miss, the princess is back, please come over, madam and miss."

When Lu Ying heard this, she immediately burst into laughter and clutched Meng Shi's arm tightly.

"Mother, let's go."

Mrs. Meng glanced at Lu Ying, "Sister Ying, your grandmother hates frizzy and quick-tempered ones the most. It's yours who can't run away."

Lu Ying nodded immediately when she heard the words, calmed down, but still couldn't suppress the ecstasy in her heart, and it took a while to regain her ladylike demeanor.

Only then did Meng Shi nodded, and led Lu Ying to look for Princess Qin. Lu Ying's pace unconsciously accelerated along the way, and the corners of her mouth raised.

Mrs. Meng shook her head helplessly, feeling a little bit reluctant in her heart, as if she was about to marry her daughter soon, and the baby she had raised for more than ten years was about to be given to someone else.

The Meng family felt emotional for a while, but Lu Ying's good fortune is also Lu Ying's blessing, and the Meng family is also happy for Lu Ying.

The mother and daughter joined hands and went to Princess Qin's yard with different thoughts.

"My daughter-in-law greets my concubine mother."

"Granddaughter greets grandmother."

The two bowed their heads and saluted. Princess Qin waved her hands casually without any joy on her graceful face.

"Get up, the rest will step back, and there is no need to leave anyone to wait on you."

Lu Ying hasn't noticed what's wrong with Princess Qin, but the Meng family has served Princess Qin for more than 20 years, and her mind is sensitive. As soon as she came in and saw Princess Qin's face, she knew something was wrong, her eyelids twitched, and she felt a bad premonition in her heart .

Mrs. Meng winked at Lu Ying. Lu Ying was excited, how could she understand it? She wished to hear from Princess Qin immediately that Queen Mother Lu had appointed her to be the princess.

"grandmother……."

"Mother Concubine, how is the Queen Mother?" Mrs. Meng interrupted Lu Ying very quickly. The veil in Lu Ying's hand was tightened, and anger suddenly appeared in her eyes, but she could only stand aside and worry.

Princess Qin glanced at Meng Shi, and then at Lu Ying, who was full of anticipation and joy, she didn't know how to speak.

"The Queen Mother is fine, don't worry about it." Princess Qin took a deep breath and said slowly.

Meng's unease became more and more intense, and she hurriedly went forward to pour a cup of tea for Princess Qin, and waited on her carefully, never speaking indiscriminately when she shouldn't.

Princess Qin was silent for a while, glanced at Lu Ying, forced a smile, "Sister Ying, you are not too young, how about grandma choosing a marriage for you?"

Lu Ying thought she had heard it wrong. When Princess Qin was testing her, Meng Shi could clearly hear what Princess Qin was saying.

"Mother concubine?"

Princess Qin squinted at Meng Shi, Meng Shi immediately fell silent, there was a bit of warning in her eyes, Meng Shi bit her lips and closed her eyes.

It seems that sister Ying must not be the concubine of this world.

Lu Ying lowered her head shyly, "Granddaughter lets grandma decide."

Princess Qin smiled, "Good boy, Ming'er's grandmother will start selecting noble sons for you. With your appearance and talent, the suitors will definitely step through the threshold and ask your mother to make some clothes and headgear for you." .”

Princess Qin is trying to compensate and comfort Lu Ying.

Lu Ying raised her eyes in surprise, and looked at Princess Qin with a puzzled expression, "Grandmother? What do you choose your son to do? Today, the queen mother summoned grandma, isn't it to marry her granddaughter and Prince Chen?"

Princess Qin's face suddenly darkened, "Who told you that the Empress Dowager will marry you and Prince Chen's son? How can the Empress Dowager's decision be something we can speculate at will!"

Lu Ying's brain finally came to her senses, and she understood the meaning behind what Princess Qin said, and her face turned pale.

"grandmother……"

Princess Qin hardened her heart, and said in a deep voice, "The queen mother already has a candidate for the imperial concubine in her heart, if the queen mother chooses you, grandmother will not object, but unfortunately, the queen mother chooses someone else, grandmother must not just sit and watch you become a concubine! "

This is what Empress Dowager Lu meant, if she had to marry, she could only be a concubine.

Princess Qin would never allow her pampered granddaughter to be a concubine, even if it was the eldest son, the queen mother's favorite grandson, Prince Qin's mansion couldn't afford to lose that face, so she simply spoke bluntly and extinguished Lu Ying's illusions.

"grandmother?"

Lu Ying shook her body and looked at Princess Qin in disbelief, as if she was looking at a stranger.

Mrs. Meng immediately tugged Lu Ying, "Sister Ying, your grandmother is also doing it for your own good, please be obedient."

Lu Ying couldn't listen to Meng Shi's persuasion at all. She brushed off Meng Shi's arm and knelt at the feet of Princess Qin.

"Grandmother, the granddaughter has been waiting for three years. There is no one in Shengjing who is worthy of the son except the granddaughter. Didn't the queen mother praise her granddaughter for her virtuousness and gentleness in public yesterday? Why did she choose someone else in the blink of an eye?"

Not to mention outsiders, even Lu Ying treated herself as a concubine and waited for Lu Xi wholeheartedly.

Lu Ying would definitely not be able to accept such sudden news.

Princess Qin sighed slightly, "Sister Ying, how dare grandma disobey the queen mother's words. If grandma can make the decision, she will surely fulfill your wishes. Unfortunately, it is not. This matter will stop here, and no one is allowed to mention it again in the future. Minger Let’s start choosing a husband for Sister Ying!”

"No, grandma!" Lu Ying's tears were like beads with a broken thread, and Lihua was crying with rain, her heart was broken, and she was about to collapse.

"Grandmother, who is who? Who is the concubine whom the Empress Dowager likes? If the granddaughter doesn't know, she will definitely not be reconciled!"

To be honest, Meng Shi also wanted to know who took Lu Ying's position as the imperial concubine.

Seeing this, Princess Qin sighed fiercely, and said slowly, "It's Sister Ning!"
