Chapter 157 Suffocation and anger, black and white face!

In the main hall of Yurong Palace, Duan Rongxiu and Xu Jifei chatted in full swing, completely throwing Luo Chuchen aside, as if they had completely forgotten about her.

"Hey, Sister Cicada, it's too late to say anything now. Marriage has become a fact... Even marriage has become a reality, so there is no room for change. Actually, to tell you the truth, Long Live Lord didn't think of it at all. The Marquis of Anling is so bold that he dared to bully the king..." He sighed pretendingly, Duan Xiurong glanced sideways at Luo Chuchen, and said in a low voice: "You don't know, the Lord Long Live returned to you yesterday. I mentioned it to me, saying that I was sorry for King Rong and the prince. At the beginning, I saw that An Linghou was very good, so I pointed out this marriage to the prince. I never thought it would be like this. I really regret it. It’s too late !!"

"Oh? Lord Long Live also thinks this marriage is inappropriate?" Concubine Xu was startled, then asked overjoyed.

"Isn't that right! The Long Live Lord told me for more than half an hour yesterday, just because he regretted it and felt sorry for His Majesty!" Duan Xiurong glanced sideways at Luo Chuchen, while answering Xu Jifei's words, "It's just , the marriage has been given, and the marriage has become, even if you regret it, it is too late!!"

"That's not necessarily!!" Xu Jifei eagerly interrupted Duan Xiurong's words, lowered her head and thought for a while, remembering Luo Chuchen's aggressive appearance during the tea ceremony, she couldn't help gritting her teeth and said: "Your Majesty, the prince and the prince Although the concubine is already married, she can't change it. But the marriage, the son has indeed been wronged, and I, as a mother, feel very sad when I see it!!"

"It's just that, after all, I'm just a stepmother. My status is too embarrassing. Even if I really want to be nice to my son, but... well, it's difficult for a stepmother. It's neither good nor bad. It's always a dilemma. It’s not good to say it, and it’s not good to intervene directly, so as not to do bad things with good intentions, so that people will misunderstand.”

"However, empress is different! No matter from the prince's side or from the concubine's side, you are the elder of the son, and your status is noble. I feel sorry for the son, and choose the noble daughter with good background and good appearance. It's nothing at all to give you two concubines who are the sons of the world!"

Concubine Xu Ji hated Luo Chuchen, thinking that within a few days of their wedding, there would be a few more noble girls in Qingcang Courtyard, even if they were not as beautiful as Luo Chuchen, but all of them had better status and better family status than her, Let's see if those two can still love each other as usual.

"Cangyu is the son of Prince Rong, the future prince, a girl from the Gao family...he will also be a side concubine in the future, a noble relative of the clan, so he will not humiliate them."

"This..." Duan Xiurong frowned slightly, with a look of hesitation on his face, "The son and the concubine have just got married, and it took only a few days. It seems inappropriate to give the concubine now, right?"

"What's wrong with this! It's the empress who is loving and caring for the son. What's more, the mother who is a concubine begs the empress, and the empress is sympathetic. Even if the son blames it, it has nothing to do with the empress. .” Xu Jifei repeatedly assured.

"Hiss, since that's the case..." Duan Xiurong pursed her lips, looked sideways at Luo Chuchen, who had been silent all this time, and asked with a smile: "Concubine Shizi, your mother-in-law has already said that, I wonder if you... How is it?"

——This will force Luo Chuchen to express his opinion!

Just two days after getting married, the concubine is about to enter the door. It was begged by the step-mother-in-law, bestowed by the empress in the palace, and she even asked for a noble daughter by name... But for any weaker new daughter-in-law, I'm afraid I can't find a suitable one even if I hang myself beam.

Looking at Duan Xiurong with a questioning expression on his face.Luo Chuchen knew very well in his heart that this person was beating her, waiting for her to speak soft words, crying for mercy! !In fact, with Duan Xiurong's status, he is only a fourth rank.Shen Cangyu is not her son, and she is not qualified to grant a concubine to Prince Rong's mansion.After all, apart from Empress Dowager Pei, Emperor Yongping and the Empress, in the harem, even Concubine Pei did not have this right.

But... things in the world are not all discussed according to the rules.Duan Xiurong is Emperor Yongping's favored concubine, she has a son and a holy favor, and it was Concubine Xu Ji, who is the 'mother', who came to ask for it in person, and she has some kind of relationship with Concubine Xu, and she has some ideas.It's really a decree, everyone is a lady, a famous lady dare not say it, but a few palace ladies and officials can still force it to her and let her take it back.

However, Luo Chuchen knew in his heart that no matter what Duan Xiurong's attitude was, her ultimate goal was to befriend the Rong Palace and win her over.Unless it is absolutely necessary, she will not use the method of bestowing palace servants, after all, it will not benefit her, and it will easily arouse Shen Cangyu's backlash and her resentment.

Now, the reason why Duan Xiurong is acting so hypocritically, whether it is to belittle her status, to suppress her self-confidence, or even to seduce Concubine Xu Ji, begging to be a side concubine for his cheap son, all the purpose is to beat her that's all ! !
Let her be afraid, afraid, uneasy.He fully understands that Duan Xiurong is the one who can control her destiny and determine whether she can live a safe and happy life in the future. Therefore, it is a wise choice to be obedient and rely on her! !
As far as this routine is concerned, without thinking, Luo Chuchen can guess it with his eyes closed.What Duan Xiurong wanted was to get rid of her vanity of ascending to the sky in one step and becoming the eldest concubine of Prince Rong's mansion.Let her understand that she is nothing special, even if there is an imperial decree to marry her, she is already married.But Emperor Yongping regretted it a long time ago, he would not protect her at all, Duan Xiurong has the ability to intervene in her marriage at any time...

Today, if she is honest and obedient, then everything will be fine. A slap for a sweet date is a universal rule in the world.She relented, not only would Duan Xiurong not embarrass her, he would even comfort her and reward her with some treasures.Even, she will become a peacemaker between her and Xu Jifei, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law who are at odds with each other! !
Help her fight against the evil mother-in-law, persuade Xu Jifei to treat her well, and become the most reliable and gentle 'elder' of her in-law's family in her mind.

However, if she is disobedient, dare to stand up to her! !Well, today, Duan Xiurong might be procrastinating and pretending to be no better than Concubine Xu, but he would not decree a marriage, but would give two maids, and what he would do would not be a jade plate. It is not a named side room, but the most common through room.

But...these two court ladies must be eloquent, eloquent and eloquent people, if they enter the mansion, even if they don't get Shen Cangyu's favor, they will hold Xu Jifei tight, and it is very bad to pick their mother-in-law and daughter-in-law relation.

You know, in this day and age, a mother-in-law is really oppressive to her daughter-in-law.Even if the husband and wife are loving, if the mother-in-law hates being targeted, the daughter-in-law will not be able to please her.Even if Concubine Xu is just a step-mother, Luo Chuchen will have to be "filial piety" whenever the word "mother" is taken up.

Ordinary people, brides who are just getting started, have a strong temper. Faced with such a situation, I am afraid that their hearts will bleed.At that time, there will be a lot of trouble, Duan Xiurong will come out to pretend to be a good person, take the maid back, and help her deal with her stepmother by the way...

After this routine, no matter what kind of temperament a woman is, I am afraid that she will be grateful to her as a 'Bodhisattva'! !

——Slapping a sweet date to eat is the most common method throughout the ages! !

However, even if he knew it clearly, Luo Chuchen had no way to resist at all...

"Concubine Shizi...you, hehe, I remember that you are on the fourth day of the family, you seem to be called Chu Chen, right?" Duan Xiurong smiled all over his face, but he didn't use "I" in his words as if he was facing Concubine Xu, but said bluntly. Bengong' is also very imposing; "Bengong is your mother-in-law's cousin, and she is also your elder, so I won't be polite to you, and I will call you 'Chen'er' directly!"

"Your mother-in-law just said that she felt ashamed of Shen Shizi. I didn't expect it at all, but the words were too fast, so why did I talk about it! But since your mother-in-law asked... Bengong It's too bad to reject her directly. It's just that you just got married to Shen Shizi, and this palace gave you a side concubine... Even though your mother-in-law asked, I don't think it's very good."

"What's wrong with this? The mother-in-law of the concubine has already spoken, so there is no room for her to refute." On the side, before Luo Chuchen could respond, Concubine Xu quickly spoke up, staring at the cheap daughter-in-law from the corner of her eye, she Repeatedly urging, "I'm talking about it. With her status, being a concubine to the crown prince is like burning incense. It's just two side concubines. Why should she object!"

Xu Shi had Duan Xiurong's backing, and without the King Rong she was afraid of, Xu Jifei's attitude was very arrogant, her words were presumptuous, and she was extremely demeaning, and she didn't take Luo Chuchen's eyes at all.

Seeing her like this, Duan Xiurong was full of disapproval on his face, but he was very 'gratified' in his heart. With a fool like Concubine Xu acting as a 'wicked person', it would be a lot easier for her to 'make a good deal'.

Ignoring Xu Jifei's clamor, she looked at Luo Chuchen with a perplexed expression, as if hesitating, "Chen'er, what your mother-in-law said...do you have any opinions?".

This one is not forgiving! ! !Luo Chuchen lowered his head and hid his face in the shadow.She really hated being treated like a fool like this by a 'routine'.But in fact, she is very clear about the current situation... She has no other way to deal with it except to be obedient and 'show weakness' and let others sell her 'good boy'!
In the end, the status of a mere prince and concubine is nothing compared to that of a concubine who has a prince's son at her knees.People are above, she is below, and people want to win her over, which is called "showing favor", which is to look down from above.And she can only obediently stick out her face and accept this 'slap', and then she can get the soothing 'sweet dates'.

I'm really suffocated! !Luo Chuchen gritted his teeth, but had to bear it.After all, she didn't want to go to the palace at all, so she brought back two 'sisters' for no reason.

Even if she knew it in her heart, even if she took it back, with Shen Cangyu's personality and current situation, she would not be able to favor her, even if she was only famous.But... some 'things' don't need a name in the first place, as long as they exist, they are very annoying, okay?
"Your Majesty, I, I..." Ignoring the disgusting feeling in my heart.Luo Chuchen gritted his teeth and lowered his head to brew 'feelings'.The eye sockets were slightly moist, and her expression gradually changed from flat to pear blossoms in the rain... This is really not a difficult task for her!
After all, she was used to pretending to be a little white flower in front of Mrs. Luo when she was in Anlinghou's mansion.But if you think about it, the tears really come in an instant, and you don't need to pinch your thighs!
Choked up twice, tears slid down his cheeks, Luo Chuchen sobbed softly, showing the power of the 'Holy Mother' Pei in front of the old lady Luo, "Mrs. Xiurong, I..." Speechless, She bit her lip and started to cry.

"Hey, what are you talking about, it's just a few words of chat, why is Chen'er still crying?" I didn't expect Luo Chuchen to be so soft-tempered, neither choked nor noisy, but the effort of a few words was still enough. Crying on the spot, Duan Xiurong's eyes flickered slightly, and he frowned slightly and said in surprise.

"Your Majesty, you don't need to pay attention to her. As the concubine of Prince Rong, can't you keep all the rules? The evil of women lies in their 'jealousy'. The prince and son of Cangyu are just accepting a few side concubines. Do you still wrong her? Is it okay?" Xu Jifei stared and scolded angrily, "When I first met me, I was eloquent, why is my son crying now? What are you pretending?"

That merciless and vicious appearance really has the 'style' of the first wicked mother-in-law in Dajin.

Seeing her like this, Luo Chuchen didn't answer, just lowered his head and sobbed slightly, as if he didn't know how to deal with it.She knew it well, since Duan Xiurong had put on airs.Concubine Xu has been 'bad-faced', of course she has to 'get on the road', so that Duan Xiurong can continue to sing this play, and have the opportunity to pretend to be a 'bad-faced', so that she can get the sweetness after that slap date.

After all, to be aggrieved is to be aggrieved, and not to be angry is not to be angry.She has always been the most knowledgeable person, showing weakness for a while, can save two 'sisters' from entering the mansion, and get Duan Xiurong to help her suppress Concubine Xu, she is crazy to stand up.

As for face, huh... what is face? !She's never been shameless, okay?

"Come on, Sister Cicada, what are you doing, stop talking! Chen'er is also the daughter of a good family, and she was born as a dignified daughter of the Luo family. It's just like what you said!" Sure enough, seeing Luo Chu Chen was so 'upright', Duan Xiurong quickly followed the 'routine', and began to persuade Concubine Xu to do the thing of loving elders! !

"... I look at the dust, whether it's appearance, character or behavior, everything is not bad, and I respect you. Even if there is a small mistake in status, in the end...we are all relatives, you and I are elders Yes, aren't you looking forward to the love of the young couple? How can you just step in for nothing?"

"But, ma'am..." Is this different from what I just said?Didn't you say that Emperor Yongping regretted it?Concubine Xu Ji still had righteous indignation on her face, but her eyes began to become dazed.

"But what? I just chatted with you for a few words! How can I transfer to accepting the side concubine? It's only been a few days since Chen'er and the son got married? Where can I accept the side concubine?"

Regarding Concubine Xu, Duan Xiurong thought he understood it very thoroughly, and he was really not guilty at all of using her as a 'cute'.I know that according to Xu Jifei's character, even if she is beaten in public today, Xu Jifei will not know how to be angry, and she will have to come to please her later, so she is merciless and treats Xu Jifei Treat it like a doll.

"...You are old and you are a mother-in-law. Why are you still so unsteady? I know that you love the son and don't want to wrong him so you beg me to side? But why don't you think about it, Chen'er married into Prince Rong's mansion A few days...you act like this, meddling in other people's rooms, how can you not make people suspect, are you going to rub your daughter-in-law?"

"You are a stepmother, and your position is embarrassing. You can't be too careful, but you are so confused, I don't know what to say about you!" Repeatedly, Duan Xiurong reprimanded Xu Jifei .Monk Zhang Er, who only reprimanded Xu Jifei, couldn't figure it out, he could only nod vaguely with a 'hmm', his eyes full of bewilderment.

"Hey, sister Cicada, don't blame me, I'm doing it for your own good, you have a carefree temper, you can't do anything in your head, I... well, I'm also afraid that you won't be relied on in the future." With a long sigh, Duan Xiurong ended with the common phrase 'I'm doing it for your own good'.Xu Jifei was so moved.

"Your Majesty, Concubine, I know what you mean. This mouth of mine... has been like this since I was a child, and I can't control it at all." Concubine Xu slapped herself on the mouth lightly.She used to regard Duan Xiurong as "can't climb up to a nobleman", and people kept saying that she was right, so she naturally didn't dare to refute anything, and she didn't dare to resent.Although he wanted to say that Luo Chuchen was not what Duan Xiurong thought at all, he was a slut who 'bullyed the weak and feared the hard', but he didn't dare to open his mouth as he could see Duan Xiurong's appearance.

He could only gouged Luo Chuchen with resentment, gnashing his teeth, as if he wanted to eat her raw.

Of course Luo Chuchen felt such a 'hot' gaze, but he was completely indifferent, as if he didn't see it, still bowed his head, his eyes were red, and tears kept flowing.

"Okay, Chen'er, stop crying. What kind of side concubine, your mother-in-law is making fun of you! She has such a temper, she is rude and straight, it has been so many years, and she can't change it at all, you But please don't be angry with her." After dismissing Xu Jifei, Duan Xiurong turned her head and began to 'attack' Luo Chuchen, speaking softly, her face was loving, and her tone was so gentle that it was about to drip water.

That appearance really looks more like a 'mother-in-law' than Concubine Xu, and she is also a peerless good mother-in-law, "Chen'er, don't worry, since you and the son are so affectionate, husband and wife are so affectionate. How can your mother-in-law bear the heart?" Give it to whom? She was just joking with you. After all, even if there are some small conflicts between your mother-in-law and daughter-in-law, don’t you still have me? "

"I am your mother-in-law's sister, your father-in-law's sister-in-law, no matter who you count from, she is your elder. You child, I felt kind when I first met you, and you were like my daughter. kind.""

...You can rest assured, no matter what happens in the future, whether it is a husband or a mother-in-law, as long as you feel sad, you can come to me, as long as you can help, I will definitely make the decision. Looking at Luo Chuchen tenderly, as if he was really looking at his daughter, Duan Xiurong's face was full of kindness, as considerate as a spring breeze blowing on his face, and he directly embraced her.

"Many, thank you, ma'am..." Luo Chuchen raised his head timidly, his eyes were full of joy and gratitude.Seeing Duan Xiurong's satisfied expression with a smile on his face, she secretly let out a long breath.

Well, the routine was successfully used, Xu Jifei's black face was very good, and the slap was ruthless, Duan Xiurong finally gave out the 'sweet dates'... Then, presumably, she didn't need those two 'sisters' Bring it home! !
However, although she successfully escaped, why is she so awkward in her heart?

——It's really suffocating! ! !
