Resourceful beauty

Chapter 252
"Master, Princess Ping is here."

After Lilac passed the message, the curtain was raised, and Wu Xiuyan walked in with a smile.

Beckoning to Wu Xiuyan, motioning her to sit on the soft couch, Fang Ruxuan said affectionately: "I guess you will come today, I have prepared your favorite chestnut cake, and I guess it will be ready in a while."

"Thank you, Princess, I feel most comfortable here..."

Talking with a smile, Wu Xiuyan took a sip of the tea that Ding Xiang handed over, and sighed comfortably: "I was in Fengming Palace just now, but I was so scared that I didn't even dare to say a word."

"What happened?"

Fang Ruxuan raised her eyes and asked.

Wu Xiuyan shook her head, "I don't know the specifics. However, the empress did get very angry, saying that there are more and more irregular rules in the palace, and there are endless things about giving and receiving privately. How dare someone go outside the palace?" The news was passed on, and no names were named, but no one dared to refute it."

Fang Ruxuan paused in her heart, she probably already knew about it, and Queen Zhou probably knew about Concubine Fang's sending news outside the palace.

As for whether Queen Zhou knew that the news of Concubine Fang was passed on to King Yong, it is unknown.

What Fang Ruxuan was thinking, Wu Xiuyan naturally wouldn't know, she patted her chest lightly and said: "Fortunately, His Royal Highness has left the palace, otherwise, if I have to go to Fengming Palace every day to pay my respects, I can't stand it."

As she spoke, she seemed to feel that she had said something wrong, Wu Xiuyan glanced at Fang Ruxuan, and shrank her neck in embarrassment.

Fang Ruxuan smiled, lowered her voice and said: "Actually, I can't stand it either. Fortunately, I am pregnant, and now I only go once a decade. When I first entered the palace, I went to Fengming Palace every day, just like a piece of wood. Sitting there, the eldest princess made fun of me, saying that I was a gourd with my mouth sawn."

Wu Xiuyan's eyes widened in disbelief, "The princess really said that?"

Seeing Fang Ruxuan nodded, Wu Xiuyan said seriously: "Then turn around, I should stay away from this eldest princess."

Fang Ruxuan couldn't help laughing, and asked curiously: "Xiuyan, is it the same when you are at home?"

With big eyes flashing suddenly, it took Wu Xiuyan a long time to understand Fang Ruxuan's meaning, and said a little shyly: "Mother gave birth to three older brothers before she got me, so she doesn't restrain me very much on weekdays, and my brothers love me so they can raise me." You have become like me. My mother used to say that she was really worried that I would be wronged because of my marriage."

"Then, did King Ping feel wronged by you?"

Fang Ruxuan asked narrowly.

Hearing this, Wu Xiuyan blushed, but she dared not even open her eyes to look at Fang Ruxuan.

Although there are many disadvantages to marrying into the royal family, Fang Ruxuan feels that marrying to King Ping is much better for Wu Xiuyan.

First of all, these two people are interested in each other, and Wu Xiuyan was personally asked by King Ping, so she will cherish it very much.Secondly, Wu Xiuyan has no parents-in-law to serve, so naturally she doesn't need to follow the rules. According to the old rules, she can enter the palace to pay her respects every few days. When she returns to Prince Ping's Mansion and closes the door, isn't it just what the young couple say?
After a while, Ding Xiang brought the freshly baked chestnut cake, which was so fragrant all the way, that Wu Xiuyan couldn't care less about embarrassment.

While eating pastries, Wu Xiuyan was talking to Fang Ruxuan about interesting things outside the palace. Seeing no one around, Wu Xiuyan snickered and said in a low voice: "Nowadays, people in Shangyang City say that His Royal Highness King Rui is Bo What about your lover?"

"King Rui?"

Fang Ruxuan was somewhat unexpected.

If it is said that King Yong is ruthless, she still believes that, after all, King Yong and Concubine Yong have been married for six years, and Concubine Yong got this son, but King Rui...

Wu Xiuyan nodded, "Going home on the third day after getting married, King Rui and Princess Rui went back to the Marquis of Lin'an. When they went back again, King Rui was alone. Up to now, Princess Rui is still living in the Marquis of Lin'an. I haven't seen King Rui go to pick it up."

This time, Fang Ruxuan was really surprised, "Princess Ke Rui went to the palace every three to five days to talk with the queen mother, whether it's the queen mother, the queen or Concubine Jing, didn't they find that there was something wrong with their young couple?"

Wu Xiuyan shrugged, and reached out to take another piece of chestnut cake, "Who knows."

After talking for a while, Wu Xiuyan ate and drank enough, and left the palace satisfied. Fang Ruxuan listened to the gossip, and felt that she was a wonderful person. If she didn't like to go to the palace to suffer, I really hope to see her more often. she.

In the evening, while it was still bright outside, Fang Ruxuan took Lilac's hand and took a walk in the yard. After a while, Sangsan came back from outside, and Fang Ruxuan whispered something.

"The Queen of Fengming Palace only showed his power at noon, he is quite courageous."

Fang Ruxuan sighed.

King Yong entered the palace. Hearing that King Yao was discussing matters with several senior officials in the study, he came out of Fengming Palace and headed southeast.

To the southeast, there is a pear grove. Bypassing the pear grove is Wanfu Palace. The last time I heard Concubine Fang's plan to plot against Fang Ruxuan, and King Yong's proposal to steal the sky for another day, was there.

Today, King Yong actually went there again, probably because of the news that Concubine Fang brought out of the palace several times.

"Hidden, don't be discovered by them..."

After instructing Sangsan, seeing her turn around and leave, Fang Ruxuan continued to move forward.

It was getting dark gradually.

After walking around for a while, seeing no one had appeared, King Yong pushed open the door of Wanfu Palace and walked in, but there was no one under the peach tree. Presumably, Concubine Fang hadn't arrived yet.

Looking at the closed door of the main hall in the distance, King Yong felt a little guilty.

After hesitating for a while, King Yong turned around and walked under the peach tree. Hearing movement outside, King Yong dodged and hid behind the trunk of the peach tree.

The door opened again, and it was Concubine Fang wearing a cloak who came in.

When King Yong flashed out, Concubine Fang let out a low cry of surprise, and as soon as the cry came out, she was covered by her own hand.

"Tell me what's going on, my king can't stay here for too long."

King Yong glanced at Concubine Fang and said.

As if she had expected King Yong to have such an attitude, Concubine Fang was not surprised, and asked straight to the point: "The child that Princess Yong gave birth to on the night of the eighth day of September is my son, right?"

King Yong's eyes narrowed slightly, and he looked at the woman in front of him who had had sex with him and gave birth to an heir for him without a trace of emotion, with a cold expression on his face.

After a while, he denied it and said: "The child born by the princess is naturally the king and her child, what has it to do with you?"

"you……"

I had doubts in my heart, but my own son was taken away without even seeing him. At this moment, even if I brought the little baby from Prince Yong's mansion, I didn't know if he was born in my October pregnancy. Concubine Fang was a little anxious, Tears welled up in his eyes.

After a few steps, Concubine Fang grabbed King Yong's sleeve and said, "An Lang, please tell me, our son, where did you put him?"

Concubine Fang's show of weakness made King Yong's heart soften a little. Thinking that she might be useful in the future, King Yong slowed down and said, "You also said that he is our son, and this king will still treat him poorly." No? Don't worry, this king has placed him in a proper place."

"The child born to Princess Yong..."

Concubine Fang persisted in asking, but before she finished speaking, King Yong's face changed again, "Didn't you hear clearly what I just said?"

She let go of her hands a little bit shyly, and Concubine Fang stood there, crying so hard that she couldn't make a sound.

Thinking that he had no mother since he was a child, if she was still there, he would surely cry and laugh for himself, King Yong reached out and touched Concubine Fang's face and said: "This king is also for your own good. That child is by your side, sooner or later One day there will be danger, so it is better for this king to arrange it to keep him safe for the rest of his life. Now, you also have a prince by your side, as long as you put in some effort, why not win the king's heart? At that time, the mother is more precious than her son. , your luck is yet to come."

"But, he was born on such a day..."

Concubine Fang cried helplessly.

"That's better than those who can't be born."

Speaking with a final word, King Yong pinched Concubine Fang's chin, made her raise her face and look directly into his eyes, and said, "In short, your future honor will be tied to him. If he is good, you will be able to take good care of him." My son is your concubine, if he is not good, then what is the difference between you and those concubines who have no children? Besides..."

Leaning close to Concubine Fang's face, as if smelling the fragrance on her face, King Yong said in a low voice, "If you lose your sacred heart, you will be useless to me in the future."

Concubine Fang's eyes widened in disbelief, as if she hadn't expected that the lover she was thinking of was the one who she thought was also in love with her, but she actually wanted to use her.

Then everything in the past was caused by him being affectionate, or was he acting on occasion?

"Of course, this king loves you too, but, this king has always been a selfish person, only willing to spend his time on those who are useful to him..."

Holding Concubine Fang in his arms, embracing her waist with one hand, King Yong gently caressed her face with one hand, like a pair of lovers who are inseparable when they are deeply in love, whispered in her ear: "So, you have to be obedient, you know? If you say something you shouldn't say, or do something you shouldn't do, in this palace, you know, people disappear quietly every day, even though you It's the concubine Fang, but if the unfavorable concubine Fang goes, who will care? Huh?"

I just feel that I am in a dark cave full of poisonous snakes, and in front of me is a giant python crawling towards me with a message, Fang Concubine's body trembled uncontrollably.

"my child……"

There was a hint of tremor in her voice, and Concubine Fang still asked unrelentingly.

King Yong waved his hand vigorously, stared fiercely at Concubine Fang who had fallen on the ground, and said sharply: "Your child, in the arms of the nursing mother in Lanyue Pavilion, if you still want to enjoy the honor in peace, let your father and mother rest in peace." Treat him well in his old age. If you want to think about it again, I don't mind, let the two elders go west earlier."

Saying that, King Yong gave Concubine Fang a disgusted look, and left Wanfu Palace without looking back.

Concubine Fang, who fell to the ground, was holding a handful of dirt in her hand, wishing she could pounce on him and tear a piece of flesh off him, she didn't even notice the pain of her nails digging into her palm.
