Chapter 191 Concubine
After everyone chatted a few more gossips, Dong Ping took his wife back to his yard.Dong Rong saw her younger brother disappearing at the gate of the courtyard, and immediately turned around and pinched her husband's waist, tortured and asked, "Every time I ask you to go to the official department, you always push back and forth, and in the end Brother Ping was sent away. Going to be an official in such a far place. Tell me, did you do something in the middle? Brother Ping seems to be covering it up for you, do you have any conspiracy with him?"

At this moment, Murong Huaide truly regretted marrying such a smart daughter-in-law, it was really difficult to hide from her.He intends to talk about the secret arrangement, but he feels that this is just his own guessing, and he doesn't want his wife to worry about it.

At the very moment of embarrassment, Yun Rui came in through the courtyard gate and reported that someone from the Liu family had come.Murong Huaide's face turned cold immediately, Dong Rong also let go, and even helped her husband tidy up his clothes.The young couple can play too much, but they can't hurt the man's face when outsiders are present, let alone in front of "enemies".

The person from the Liu family was Mrs. Liu's personal old lady, she obediently followed Zizhu into the hall, she didn't even dare to look up at Zhongshan Wang and his wife who were sitting on the main seat, and she knelt down and kowtowed first.

She is also an old man who has been serving the Liu family for decades. Although I don’t know why the masters always have weird faces when they mention the palace these days, but the masters were not present as close relatives of the old princess’s funeral. Let’s contact some rumors outside. No matter how stupid you are, you can guess a bit.

It stands to reason that she should hide as far away as possible for today's errand, but Madam Liu has no choice but to personally appoint her to come here, and she really has no choice.After thinking about it, he could only keep his posture to the minimum. No matter how much Zhongshan King had resentment towards the Liu family, it must not be easy to implicate her humble servant.

Sure enough, although King Zhongshan didn't yell, he didn't ask someone to drag her down and beat her right away, and the old mother secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

"The old slave greets the prince and concubine."

Murong Huaide looked at the old nanny who was kneeling in front of him, his eyes were full of disgust, whenever he saw the Liu family, he would think of the death of his mother and concubine, if not for the death of his mother and concubine, he would not take revenge, he hated You can't poison everyone in the Liu Mansion to death with your mother and concubine.

"Don't say too much, what did the Liu family send you to do, hurry up and get out!"

Hearing the impatience in the prince's tone, the old mother shrank her neck in fright, and carefully said what she had thought about thousands of times on the way, "Returning to the prince, our master and wife said that the old princess has passed a hundred days. Sacrifice, if the prince is free someday, the Liu family will send our young lady to the mansion. This is also the last wish of the old concubine, presumably seeing her niece enter the mansion, the old concubine can rest in peace under the nine springs."

"Hmph, rest in peace? The Liu family is really thick-skinned!" Murong Huaide slapped the table with a slap, his face livid with anger.Dong Rong quickly patted his back for him, and persuaded in a low voice, "I have already promised my concubine about this matter. No matter how angry you are, you can't really violate her old man's last wish. You have to fulfill it left and right. Why don't you just do it?" Hurry up and bring the person in, the palace is not short of a meal for her!"

"Okay, go back and tell your master that you will send him to the back door of the palace in the evening after three days, and you won't wait when it's over!"

"Yes, yes, the old slave will definitely bring the words!" The old mama probably didn't expect to complete the task so smoothly, and happily kowtowed three times in a row, and then hurriedly retreated with her weak legs.

Dong Rong saw that there were no outsiders, so she hugged her husband's arm and said with a smile, "I was just annoyed about brother Ping's going south, but she sent me to vent my anger. You can't feel sorry for me when I torment her! "

Murong Huaide guessed that his daughter-in-law was afraid that he would get angry and hurt her body, so she tried to coax him in a different way, so he hugged her tightly and said, "Forget it, you don't want to see such a vicious person, so as not to be dirty." own hand."

Dong Rong hugged her husband's neck and replied with a smile, "Okay."

The three members of Liu's family have been anxiously waiting for a reply since they sent the old mother to the palace. It's not like they never thought that if Liu Xiaozhen entered the palace, he would be treated coldly, but Mr. Liu firmly believes that there is no man in the world who is indifferent to power. As long as he works hard to push his nephew to the throne at that time, the daughter of the Liu family will definitely be the mother of the world.And Liu Xiaozhen is purely unconvinced, her own aunt can climb from side concubine to the position of main concubine, she wants good looks, means and means, plus her father's assistant, she can't beat a peasant girl?

As long as she entered the gate of the palace, she could always think of a way to steal her cousin's heart little by little, and control the whole palace in her own hands.

The old mother almost fled back to the palace. In front of the master, she naturally wouldn't talk about how embarrassed she was. She only said that King Zhongshan agreed to let his young lady enter the mansion, but she could only enter through the back door.

The three members of Liu's family were originally afraid of Murong Huaide's refusal, but they were relieved immediately after hearing this, and they didn't care about such a trivial matter as entering the house through the front door or the back door.

Liu Xiaozhen suppressed the excitement in her heart, and almost crumpled the handkerchief in her hand.She begged Master Liu in a low voice, "Father, can you prepare some more money for me? After entering the palace, I need to take care of my servants, otherwise I'm afraid I will be restrained in my actions. If something happens, I won't be able to deliver the news."

Master Liu nodded, "This has been prepared a long time ago, let your mother find someone for you."

Mrs. Liu interjected, "Mother will definitely choose someone capable for you this time, and she will definitely betray the lord like that lowly girl Hongyu."

Liu Xiaozhen happily got up to salute her parents, and finally hurried back to her yard to pack her luggage.Mrs. Liu also began to take the maid and mother-in-law to count the dowry saved for her daughter over the years.Although the daughter entered the palace as a concubine, she would be more confident if she had more dowry, at least the servants of the palace would not dare to bully her easily.

Mr. Liu planned to invite those friends over for a drink three days later. In short, he must pass on his daughter as the concubine of the King of Zhongshan. In the future, he will have the dual status of father-in-law and uncle of the King of Zhongshan, so that he can gain even more followers.

Not to mention how busy the Liu family was, but only that Dong Ping and his wife heard the news that their brother-in-law was about to take a concubine when they had dinner at night.The two were so shocked that they almost threw away the bowls and chopsticks in their hands. Dong Ping stood up and wanted to settle the score with his brother-in-law.

Dong Rong quickly pulled him away, and said with a smile, "Your brother-in-law and I have our own ideas about this matter, so don't mix it up. If it wasn't for worrying that you would be too surprised to hear from others, I wouldn't tell Yours."

Dong Ping looked at his sister carefully, her face was ruddy, she smiled at Yan Yan, she didn't look like she was wronged, so she was relieved a little.But he still turned to his brother-in-law, and said firmly, "I don't care what the reason is, but if my brother-in-law makes my sister sad, I will rush back immediately even if I am far away in Haining, and take my sister and the child away."

Murong Huaide couldn't laugh or cry when he heard this, but in the final analysis of this matter, no matter how much he hated and hated Liu Xiaozhen, she always carried the name of her own concubine.So, his brother-in-law gave such a warning, and he really accepted it with a pinch of his nose.

"Don't worry, I won't let you have this chance."

Dong Rong was afraid that there would be a gap between the two of them, so she hurriedly pulled her younger brother to sit down again, and asked how their salutes were going.The deadline given by the Ministry of Officials is very tight, and the two of them will have to leave in about ten days.

Yang Wanyin had gone back to see her parents before, although she was very reluctant, but her father also said that Dong Ping would definitely come back in three years, so she was relieved.At this time, when the eldest aunt asked about it, she talked about all kinds of news from her father with great interest.

Dong Rong was [-]% full after eating, so she took her younger sister and daughter-in-law off the table, ordered Zizhu to make tea and served snacks, and the two started chatting.Dong Ping and Murong Huaide were bored sitting with each other, and they could hear bursts of laughter coming from the living room from time to time, so they finally joined in.

Dong Ping has read countless travel notes, and Murong Huaide has also been to Haining in person, so he naturally knows much more than the two women, and the four of them talked about it in a heated manner.Yiba, who is very playful, also stays in the room and refuses to leave, he stays until he hears the surprise, and asks non-stop, which makes Zizhu repeatedly scold her for being unruly.

It was rainy in spring, and there was a drizzle when I got up early this day, which just wetted the bluestone streets and the green tiles on the roofs on both sides. At first glance, the street market was much cleaner and fresher.

Just after noon, the Liu family opened the door to welcome the guests. There were not many banquets in the main courtyard, and the servants walked through to deliver delicious food, which seemed very lively.

Seeing that the sun was about to set, Mrs. Liu personally sent her daughter in the silver-red wedding dress to the sedan chair, and a group of servants followed the sedan chair with burdens tied with red flowers across the street to the back gate of the palace.Many children loved the excitement, shouting and jumping around the gate, waiting for the palace to throw copper coins and fruits, even dozens of idlers who came out for a walk after eating, all intending to watch the excitement, as a pastime.

Someone remembered the rumors they had heard before, so they laughed, "This Miss Liu family must be a beauty, otherwise the King of Zhongshan had already said in public that he would not take concubines, I don't want to make an exception today."

"That's right, there are few men in the world who don't love sex, and they get tired of guarding a woman after only a few years."

"Haha, brother said so, how many concubines are there in the family?"

"Of course!"

Everyone was chattering gossip, the back door of the palace finally creaked open.A well-dressed old nanny walked out with her chin raised, glanced contemptuously at everyone, and then asked loudly, "Where is Mrs. Liu?"

In the sedan chair, Liu Xiaozhen heard the movement of Nanny Shu, and thought that she was more comfortable with her at the beginning, so she did not get out of the sedan chair, and directly responded in the sedan chair, "Mother Shu, I am here. How is your health recently? We're a family now, and Zhen'er needs more advice from you, old man."

A flash of resentment flashed in Shu Nanny's eyes. Originally, she was the most dependent nanny by Princess Liu's side. As long as Princess Liu lived well, she would always have a decent life.But Princess Liu was killed, and her status in the palace also plummeted.If Princess Dong didn't give her an errand this time, perhaps even the handyman in the kitchen could step on her feet.All this is because of this bitch with a conscience!
