Resourceful beauty

Chapter 288
"Is Miss Yuting feeling better?"

This day, I came out from Fengming Palace after paying my respects, and I ran into King Yong's side concubine who was taking a walk in the nursery. Presumably, she also came to the palace to greet Queen Zhou. Fang Ruxuan stepped forward and asked with concern. .

"Princess Lao is thinking about..."

She thanked her with a smile, and the side concubine of King Yong said softly: "The past few days have been much better, but there is still some coughing, the princess arranged for someone to take care of her, and it will probably be fine in a few days. "

"Poor parents in the world, now, I have to bother my side concubine. However, those who are capable will work harder. I think my side concubine will not find it difficult."

After casually exchanging pleasantries, Fang Ruxuan glanced at Prince Yong's side concubine, and asked curiously, "Did the side concubine bring the two ladies into the palace?"

The side concubine of King Yong smiled and said: "Although she is a girl, she is very naughty. Our Highness is used to them. The older they grow up, the more lawless they will become. If they enter the palace and offend the nobles, it will be bad. Therefore, concubine Didn't bring them here."

After hearing the words of King Yong's side concubine, Fang Ruxuan couldn't help but feel a little funny.

On that day, concubine Fang Gui provoked Chu Yuyao, worried that her mother, who was the side concubine of King Yong, would fall out of favor, and relying on her status as a child, she pretended to accidentally knock Princess Yong off the carriage, and almost caused Princess Yong to have a miscarriage.

Now, the two people who were originally enemies actually stood in a team. It can be seen that the world is impermanent.

"It's only been naughty for the past two years. When you get older, you have to learn the rules, and you have to learn poetry, etiquette, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. At that time, you will be more restrained. The side concubine doesn't need to worry too much. At that age, they will naturally be well-behaved." Yes. Didn’t we also come here from then on?”

Talking with a smile, Fang Ruxuan lowered her eyes, and saw a string of red dazzling beads from the wrist of Prince Yong's side concubine.

Slightly startled, Fang Ruxuan's complexion quickly returned to normal, greeted Yong Wang's side concubine, and then turned back to the East Palace.

Along the way, Fang Ruxuan's heart flashed with the beauty of that bead string.

Fang Ruxuan had seen the same bead string on Concubine Lin Guifei once.

In Dayuan Palace, Concubine Lin is the only concubine other than the queen who can wear red. Apart from her status as a noble concubine, the background of the Lin family should not be underestimated, and this is the honor given to Concubine Lin by Emperor Rui'an.

Of course, there is still a difference with the queen.The empress wears bright true red, while Concubine Lin can only wear reds other than true red, such as water red, carmine red, and so on.

The only exception that Fang Ruxuan has seen is the pair of bright red bracelets in the hands of Concubine Lin Gui.

The red is dazzling, bright and eye-catching, under the sunlight, the bracelets are radiant and radiant, very beautiful.

It is said that it came up to the palace during the tribute of Fanbang. Emperor Rui'an originally planned to reward the queen, but the queen saw it and said that such a good thing should be best matched with Concubine Lin, who is just young, so Emperor Rui'an put the bracelet on It was given to Concubine Lin Gui.

Such a bright color is a unique string, Lin Guifei likes something, she wears it on her hand on the day she gets the reward, unless the clothes don't match, she seldom takes it off.

But later, Fang Ruxuan accidentally learned a secret, but also understood why the queen was so generous and humble, and gave up such a rare string of red crystal beads to Concubine Lin Gui.

The red crystal bead string has two characteristics. One is that the material is rare. The same piece of red crystal can only be made into a string of beads at most, and there are very few that can be made into a pair. Therefore, it is rare in the world.

Another feature is that it has a unique fragrance, which is delicate and elegant.

However, few people know that the strange fragrance in red crystal has the same effect as musk, making it difficult for women to conceive, and if they wear it when pregnant, it is very easy to miscarry.

Now, the same thing happened to King Yong's side concubine, Fang Ruxuan didn't believe it was a coincidence.

While walking towards Xuanyi Hall, Fang Ruxuan secretly guessed, wondering what kind of thoughts were on the person who gave the bracelet to King Yong's side concubine.

Queen Zhou?Impossible, she wholeheartedly supported King Yong's side concubine to become Princess Yong, and then the future queen. Then, if she wanted to consolidate the Zhou family's position in Yao Kingdom in the future, then, no matter now or in the future, the side concubine of Yong Wang would be born It is inevitable to have a son of his own.

In this case, how could Queen Zhou reward her with such a bracelet?
Apart from Queen Zhou in the palace, the only one who is close to King Yong's side concubine is Fang Guifei who suddenly became acquainted these days.

If, as Chu Yuan guessed, Concubine Yong will be replaced by Concubine Yong, then, based on reason and reason, Chu Xingzhao will be raised under the concubine Yong, and his status as a direct son will not change .

If Concubine Fanggui wants her son to be rich and powerful, then the side concubine of King Yong will not be able to have any more sons. In this way, it is the safest thing to simply disqualify her from having children, right?

Thinking of this, Fang Ruxuan felt chills all over her body.

The concubine Fang who greeted timidly when we first met, now seems to have become another person.

A woman who is thoughtful and cruel at the same time is truly terrifying.

In Fengming Palace, when King Yong's side concubine entered the inner hall, she deliberately pulled her sleeves and gathered the beads on her wrists inward.

After a while, Concubine Fanggui left and returned.

The three of them talked for a long time in the inner hall, and when they left Fengming Palace, the side concubine Yong's face was a bit embarrassed, but thinking about the long-term future, the side concubine Yong had a lot of confidence in her heart, Instantly cheered up again.

Inside the Hall of Xuanyi, Fang Ruxuan looked at the kapok and asked: "These days, the Tianji Building is going well?"

Kapok nodded joyfully, "One word spreads to ten, ten spreads to a hundred, and now the reputation of Tianji Building can be regarded as spreading. Leaving aside the antiques, the news that only circulates is worth a lot of money every month." According to the old man Jin, in time, Tianji Building will be richer than Sifangzhai and Zangbao Pavilion back then, and by then, it will be the real cash cow."

The intention of opening the Tianji Building is not to make money, but to gather more information so that one can see all directions and listen to all directions. Now, it is a surprise to have such a situation.

Fang Ruxuan was happy in her heart, and told Kapok: "Be careful in everything. I believe that many people will soon have ideas about Tianjilou."

Kapok nodded again and again, "Don't worry, old man Jin has already told you, so these days, some adjustments have been made in Tianji Building, but anyone who wants to know the news will not get anything related to it except that news." Let alone the person who provided the source of the information. As for the person who provided the information, he would never know who wanted the information, so keeping secrets is the top priority of Tianji Building."

Jin Suan has always planned ahead, thanks to his decades of rich and experienced experience, Fang Ruxuan feels extremely lucky when she thinks of having such a person by her side.

When Mu Mian said this, Fang Ruxuan was naturally relieved, and turned to another important matter, "Pay more attention to Prince Yong's Mansion, especially the inner house."

Wen Xianyin knew the elegant meaning, and Mu Mian understood it, and nodded solemnly in response.

Fang Ruxuan turned to ask: "Have you seen Chu Dong these days?"

Kapok froze for a moment, then looked at Fang Ruxuan curiously, "Miss, do you want to arrange for him to do something?"

Seeing that Kapok was a little uncomfortable, Fang Ruxuan pursed her lips and smiled. After a while, she said softly: "How can I say, he is also the number one important person around His Highness. Even if I arrange things, I can't arrange things for him. I just want to Ask, how are you doing these days?"

Fang Ruxuan's words made the always calm Kapok stand up as if startled, "Miss, we, we are fine."

"Who said you have what?"

Can't help laughing, Fang Ruxuan looked at Kapok slyly.

Kapok's face was flushed red, but after a while, tears began to fall.

Every time Kapok comes, either she has something to report, or Fang Ruxuan has something to tell her, so, as long as Kapok is in the inner hall, Ding Xiang and Su Ye will be in the main hall, guarding and preventing people from entering.

Therefore, at this moment, Kapok shed tears as if she had been wronged, but she was not afraid of being seen.

"What's wrong? Are you having trouble?"

Fang Ruxuan didn't persuade her, but just handed her a handkerchief.

Mu Mian's shoulders were loose, and after crying for a while, he said in a low voice: "A few days ago, he told me that when His Highness was stable, he would come to the lady to make a kiss. I said, I was married before." , If this is the case, let him stop talking about it in the future. Later, he became anxious and said that he didn’t expect that in my heart, he turned out to be such a person, so he ran away after admitting the wrong person. These days, I never met him."

When she was still in Dayuan Capital, Fang Ruxuan could tell that there was something wrong between Mu Mian and Chu Dong.

At first, the two met each other and beat each other, and they seemed to feel uncomfortable after a few days of not moving their hands and feet. At that time, Fang Ruxuan always made fun of Mu Mian, saying that she and Chu Dong were enemies.

Later, Chu Yuan returned to Yao Country, but left Chu Dong in the capital to deal with the aftermath. Mu Mian and Chu Dong had more and more private contact.

Let alone when Fang Ruxuan returns to Shangyang City.

These two people, one is Chu Yuan's capable general, and the other is Fang Ruxuan's most dependent person, and they are both alone without father and mother, so they are a perfect match no matter what.

In the past, Fang Ruxuan thought it was Chu Dong's meek nature, but now after hearing what Kapok said, she realized that the root of the problem was Kapok.

"You, I really don't know what to say about you."

Fang Ruxuan shook her head and sighed, "In this world, how rare is it to meet someone who knows you, understands you, and has the same interests? God favored you to meet Brother Shao Ming, but Brother Shao Ming has been gone for so many years , don't you think you can let it go? You have failed not only Chu Dong, but also yourself. "

"I……"

It seemed that there were thousands of concerns in his heart, but for a while, he didn't know where to start.

"Heart disease still needs heart medicine. It's useless for others to talk about this kind of thing. Chu Dong won't force you, and I certainly won't. You go back and think about it for yourself, and then talk after you figure it out."

Fang Ruxuan said with a smile.
