Chapter 161 Everyone Will Play Stupid (1)

A frenzy flashed in Princess Liu's eyes, but then she calmed down again, and said hesitantly, "Brother, the emperor is now in good health, and although the crown prince is weak, he has been fine for many years. The crime of genocide."

"A woman's opinion!" Liu Zhengqing stared and scolded, "If I'm not [-]% sure, how can I just tell you this matter?"

While talking, he motioned his sister to come forward, and whispered a few more words in his ear.Concubine Liu's face became paler the more she heard, and finally asked anxiously, "Is this news reliable? Brother, be careful that someone tricked you into using it as a shield."

Liu Zhengqing shook his head, and said in a low voice, "Don't worry, this news is reliable. Besides, we don't need the Liu family to come forward in this matter. After King Zhongshan returns to the west, you will surround Qiu'er and study hard in the palace. After three years After the filial piety period, the emperor has already... When the sick and weak crown prince succeeds, if those people succeed, our Liu family and Qiu'er will naturally enjoy the success. If the matter fails, we have not participated in it from the beginning to the end, and will not be affected .”

Concubine Liu already had the ambition to be a mother to the world, so being provoked by her elder brother like this, she felt more and more sure about the matter, so she nodded and said, "Okay, big brother, I'll talk to Qiu'er when I get back."

"I can't say it." Liu Zhengqing scolded his younger sister for being stupid in his heart, but he put on a concerned expression on his face and advised, "I've only met Qiu'er once, but I can see that he has an upright temper. This If he finds out about the matter, Bao Buqi will show his feet in front of the emperor or the prince, and there is no need for him to participate in the action, so let's keep it from him. Fortunately, this child has been living outside since he was a child, and he has not stopped studying literature and martial arts. In the future, as soon as he ascends to that throne, he will definitely govern Daqi to become rich and powerful."

Concubine Liu also felt that this was reasonable, she nodded her head in agreement, but at the end she thought of her niece and said, "What should Zhen'er do, is it possible that she is really allowed to shave and practice?"

Liu Zhengqing shook his head and said, "If Qiu'er wants to ascend to the throne, Zhen'er must marry into the palace, otherwise those Qingliu will no longer believe me. I have already spoken out and I am going to drive Zhen'er out of the house. Why don't you take her back to the palace, after a while the rumors subside, let Qiu'er accept her as a side concubine, then I will stay behind closed doors and the royal family will not be suspicious."

"Being a side concubine?" Princess Liu couldn't bear it, after all, no matter how nice the name was, it couldn't get away from the fact that she was a concubine.

Liu Zhengqing waved his hand impatiently, and replied, "What if you don't want to be a side concubine? The emperor has already made her a concubine. Let's wrong her for a few years now, and wait for the day when Qiu'er really loves the world, Even if we go to see our parents and ancestors early, we will have face."

Concubine Liu thought that she was also a concubine in the past, and now she can take the position of mistress and control the entire palace.What's more, with her mother-in-law here, she will never let her niece suffer.As for what her son said back then that he would only marry one wife, she didn't care at all.Which man is not greedy and lustful, and her niece is much more beautiful than that peasant girl. She doesn't believe that her son will not be tempted if she gets along with her for a long time...

The two brothers and sisters were thinking about their own thoughts, and no one noticed that a piece of the gray tiles on the roof had been gently removed. Bingsi rolled his two black eyes and looked carefully for a long while, muttering to himself, "I'll go first Go and take a look at that angry little girl, you won't miss any important news."

Concubine Liu sat up for a while and then got up to visit her niece in the back house. Liu Xiaozhen had talked to her parents a long time ago. Although she still felt conflicted about being a side concubine, thinking about her aunt's struggle history, she reluctantly agreed. If you are ruthless, you must punish the peasant girl who took her position as the concubine to death.

Concubine Liu saw that her niece was haggard within two days after returning home, so she hugged her distressedly and tried to persuade her non-stop.Mrs. Liu was also shedding tears as she recounted how her daughter was raised since she was a child, but she never thought that she would end up as a concubine.Concubine Liu felt more guilty when she heard this, and almost patted her chest to promise that she would never let her niece be wronged in the future, and then coaxed the mother and daughter to stop crying.

Concubine Liu saw that it was getting late, so she made an appointment to send someone to pick up her niece the next day and then quietly left through the back door.

God was in a bright mood for two days, and finally remembered the previous grievances, and it started to rain again.Murong Huaide accompanied his daughter-in-law to have breakfast, and suddenly remembered that he had promised to go to the palace to thank him the day before yesterday, so he talked about making snacks. He was afraid that his wife would be tired, so he asked, "No one cares about it, why don't you think of a trick to make it easier?" Zizhu is ready."

Dong Rong readily agreed, and after dinner, the husband and wife played a bamboo bone oiled paper fan, walked slowly through the entire courtyard to the gate, Murong Huaide reluctantly left his wife and children behind and rushed to the palace.

Dong Rong was also a little depressed. She was pregnant and wanted to tie her husband by her side all day long.But people live in this world, nine out of ten people are unhappy, they can't really regard themselves as the sun, everyone has to revolve around themselves.

She simply became a husband and went to "work" in the palace, and finally pulled herself together and asked the two little girls, Zizhu and Yiba, to figure out new dim sum together.The two maids were clever and well-behaved. Seeing that the master was in a bad mood, they kept chattering and joking, which really made Dong Rong feel relieved for a while.

The three masters and servants picked and picked for a while, and finally settled on two kinds of mung bean cake and cold bean paste cake. The former is good for dispelling heat, while the latter tastes sweet and glutinous, which is most suitable for the appetite of an old man like the Queen Mother.As for the ones to be sent to the emperor, Dong Rong just used a few preserved eggs brought from the orchard to make up the number. After all, the emperor had eaten all kinds of delicacies, but he just wanted to try something new.

Zizhu happily took the list and ran to the kitchen to prepare, while Yiba stayed in the room to serve.Dong Rong watched her turning her head to look into the kitchen from time to time, amused in her heart, but she just refused to let her go.

Yiba stretched her neck by three points, and there seemed to be a small slap in her throat. The palm kept scratching and scratching, which made her very itchy.

Dong Rong couldn't help laughing, and finally put down her needlework and said, "Go if you want, if you twist your neck, you have to trouble Qingfeng to prescribe the medicine!"

"Oh, ma'am!" Yiba twisted his body in embarrassment, "I'm just... just afraid that sister Zizhu won't be able to do it by herself."

"Yes, Yiba is the most diligent." Dong Rong took a sip of the warm tea on the sandalwood square table, and helped the little girl find a slope to get off the donkey. Squeeze a cup of peach branches and send them over."

"Yes, ma'am!" Yiba was overjoyed immediately, and trotted out the door, but almost bumped into Wen Niang who was holding the account book.Wen Niang raised her hand and slapped her lightly, and said with a smile, "You girl, being spoiled by the madam is becoming more and more disreputable."

Yiba stuck out his tongue, smiled and continued to run away.Wen Niang was left with no choice but to enter the house to complain, "Ma'am, the maids are all well-behaved and prudent, and the two of our family are spoiled and spoiled."

Dong Rong waved her hand disapprovingly, and said with a smile, "I am originally from a farming family. Even if I teach the girls to be as well-behaved as court ladies, no one will look at me because of it. Let them live a little more comfortably, around the family There are no outsiders either."

After hearing this, Wen Niang couldn't persuade her anymore, so she handed over the account book with both hands and said, "This is the account book of the warehouse. Manager Zhang took Fuzi and the others to clean up an empty room this morning. Maybe there will be someone in the next two days. Bring a congratulatory gift."

"That's good. No one dislikes gold, silver and jewels. The more the better. The second young master and the second young lady can't use up all they can get married, so they save it up for the next generation's children to get married."

"The lady should give birth to more young masters and young ladies."

Both the master and the servant laughed while they were talking, Yiba came in with a glass half filled with peach juice, seeing the master was accompanied by him, he happily ran to the kitchen to help "taste".

In the early morning of the second day, Murong Huaide sent someone to the palace to say something and then took Dong Rong into the palace by car.The horses pulling the cart are specially selected high-headed horses, and the horseshoes clatter on the bluestone road, which is very rhythmic.Murong Huaide secretly glanced at his wife's strange makeup, hesitated for a while before asking, "Rongrong, are you really planning to enter the palace with this appearance?"

Dong Rong smiled and supported the golden hairpin on her head, and asked, "Don't you think that my appearance is more in line with everyone's guess?"

Murong Huaide smiled helplessly, and instructed, "You can do whatever you like, but don't let yourself be wronged, understand?"

"Okay." Dong Rong stuck out her tongue mischievously, and replied, "Don't worry, just remember to come and pick me up earlier."

While the young couple were talking, the carriage arrived in front of the palace gate.According to the rules, everyone had to walk as soon as they entered the gate of the palace, but in order to show his love for his nephew, the emperor specially rewarded the pregnant nephew and daughter-in-law with a two-person petite.Murong Huaide took his wife to thank him, and helped her into the sedan chair with his own hands. At the end, he wanted to give a few more instructions but because of the presence of outsiders, he had to say softly, "I will come to pick you up soon."

Dong Rong nodded with a smile, and replied, "Don't worry, Wen Niang is still here."

The eunuch in charge at the side was afraid of delaying the time, so he stepped forward and persuaded with a smile, "Master, hurry up and go to the Lizheng Hall. The emperor is going to court now, so you can rest assured that the concubine and concubine will be served by the slaves."

Murong Huaide smiled and cupped his hands at him, and finally slipped another bank note by turning around.Sure enough, the eunuch in charge immediately became more enthusiastic, and told the two young eunuchs carrying the sedan chair to be careful, and finally headed all the way to Shou'an Palace.

Although today is not a big day to pay respects, there are more than a dozen concubines gathered in the Shouan Palace.Needless to say the reason, everyone came here to meet the peasant girl who fascinated the prince of Zhongshan.In the past two days, not only the masters, but also the maids and eunuchs in the palace have been guessing what is so special about this imperial concubine in their spare time.Some say that she is extremely beautiful, some say that she is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and some even say that she is the reincarnation of a vixen.There are so many different theories, and they are complex enough to write a biography of ghosts and monsters.
