Prosperous Glory

Chapter 10

The battle in the harem is just like this.

Although the queen mother is tired of such things, she also knows that as long as there is a harem, such disputes will be inevitable, so she is too lazy to argue with a group of concubines at this time.Just thinking of the third princess looking at Wen Jing, such a thing happened behind her back, and thinking of her kindness just now, she just felt annoyed in her heart, and an angry look appeared on her face. Madam said, "It seems that my sister's things are not the first one." Seeing the concubine's complacent face, she said coldly, "As for Concubine Tang, just take care of the second princess."

Seeing the queen mother pointing out the second princess, the concubine Tang froze slightly, even more unnaturally.

Although Mrs. Li Guogong felt sorry for the third princess, she was not the gun in Concubine Tang's hand. She hated her for saying this in public. Said, "I heard that Tong Fang next to the second son-in-law is pregnant??" Seeing the annoyance on Concubine Tang's face, she just smiled and said, "If you want me to tell you, the second princess should stop making trouble with the son-in-law. It is a serious matter to have an heir first, to continue the incense to the husband's family."

The second princess first fell in love with a number one scholar in Beijing, and cried out to marry him.However, the sweetheart already has a wife, and he refuses to stop his wife and remarry no matter what, so the second princess tried her best to make a fuss in the capital, but nothing happened.Now that the number one scholar has taken his wife to go to other places, the saint is not a fool, he doesn't care about these little things about his children, on the contrary, he values ​​such a rich and stable person more, so he just scolded the second princess who wanted to chase after her, and sent her away. Married into a noble family in Beijing, naturally, because of the reputation of the second princess, the one who is willing to be a son-in-law is not a top family in the noble family, but ordinary.

The second princess still misses Zhuangyuan Lang in her heart, so she naturally despises the mediocre dude who only knows how to have fun, so she has a bad relationship with the second son-in-law, and even refuses to have sex.Although the second son-in-law doesn't have great abilities, he was raised in a pampered family, how could he be willing to suffer such grievances?He took in a few houses in one go, and only stayed in his own home, he didn't even bother to go to the princess mansion. Although the saint scolded him a few times, but these days, there is no old father-in-law who pays attention to the affairs of his daughter and son-in-law's house every day. Besides, the second princess is very embarrassing. I heard that recently he has taken a fancy to a young man who looks very similar to Zhuangyuanlang, and wants to raise him in the princess's mansion. The saint usually doesn't like this daughter very much, and now he doesn't bother to care about her.

As a mother, Concubine Tang naturally knew this matter clearly, her face was stiff, but she still secretly remembered the Three Princesses in her heart.

She is used to pretending to be honest and flattering the queen, obviously concubine Wang's status is lower than hers, but now they are giving marriages, the second princess is just marrying into an ordinary family, but the third princess wants to marry the prince and grandson, how can she be calm?
"Your Majesty..." Seeing that the Empress Dowager had said a lot before turning her direction, the third princess almost burst into tears.

She has always lived in this palace like an invisible person, and her biological mother, Concubine Wang, is not favored, but now she is still a concubine, and she is old and decrepit. , but asked Concubine Tang to confuse her with a few words, only to make her feel cold, but she didn't dare to cry in front of the Queen Mother. On the white marble floor tiles at the feet of the princess.

"Yeah..." A Yuan moved slightly in the queen's arms.

The queen sighed slightly in her heart, and knew that the third princess would not dare to argue with Concubine Tang no matter what, but this matter was not a trivial matter. She didn't know what to say, but seeing A Yuan seemed a little sad, and gently touched this The little baby only raised his head slightly, and nodded slightly at the dignified concubine sitting below, who had been smiling and silent. After seeing the concubine startled, he picked up the teacup on one side without a trace After taking a sip of tea, a faint smile appeared on his face.

A Yuan didn't pay attention to such eyebrow and eye lawsuits, but when he watched the third princess cry, he heard a gentle female voice from below, "Speaking of which, the fifth princess also likes these gadgets very much." Seeing that everyone was looking over, the concubine only smiled at the queen mother, "What sister concubine Tang said made me think of the fifth princess in my palace. That child likes new tricks, especially like counting beads of various colors." However, her fourth brother still loves her dearly, what kind of pearls are counted by red beans, agates, and sapphires, but if there are any in Beijing, her imperial brother will take them for her."

"The fifth girl always likes to dress up, but Aijia also likes it when she looks at it." When it comes to the fifth princess, the Queen Mother's eyes are obviously much softer. It is obvious that in her heart, the fifth princess is much more favored than the third princess.

The concubine hurriedly thanked the queen mother for her compliment.

Seeing the unconcealable smile on the queen's face, Ah Yuan looked at the concubine curiously, and saw that her appearance was nothing more than average, which is very common in this palace, and her clothes were only very old-fashioned The autumn fragrance is nothing special, but Concubine Xu and Concubine Tang actually sat under her, and when she spoke, they showed expressions of fear, and even Concubine Su looked at this concubine with a somewhat friendly gaze , I knew that this concubine might not be as mediocre as she seemed, so she didn't cry or make trouble, and just watched how this concubine acted.

"That girl is naughty, and my concubine is incomparable. She is only willing to listen to what the queen mother and empress have to say." The concubine pursed her lips and smiled, and then continued, "Therefore, the concubine can think of doing everything for the child like that." Heartfelt mood." Seeing the third princess looking up gratefully, she only said in a warm voice, "Concubine Wang's natal family has only entered the palace once in so many years, why don't they want to bring in all the good things in Beijing? Who doesn’t like stuffed girls? It’s okay to give two more different ones.”

"There are indeed some ebony counting beads and the like." The third princess said bravely.

The imperial concubine also knew that it would be unpleasant to make too many excuses, and seeing the smile on the Empress Dowager's face, she sat aside with a smile on her face and did not speak.

"Concubine De, what you said is very reasonable. It's normal for girls to like jewelry." Regardless of the truth, Concubine De's words saved the face of the Royal Princess, and the Queen Mother didn't want to delve into it. Said, "It looks like my sister will come back next time, and I will prepare more jewelry to play with these girls." She didn't mention anything else, which only made the third princess feel bitter and her face turned pale.

Mrs. Li Guogong did not say any more, obviously she had an idea in her heart.

"Three girls, sit down quickly." The queen only smiled at Concubine De with satisfaction, and saw that the latter also nodded respectfully, then hugged A Yuan and said warmly, "I just asked you to come to see your cousin, why not?" So far away?"

"If you hold her, she might as well be close to me." Seeing A Yuan lying in the queen's arms obediently, still spitting out milk bubbles, the queen mother pointed at her and smiled, "Hurry up and give me back!" , or I will be annoyed."

Little did he know that A Yuan was just shocked by the performance of these concubines in a short period of time. At this time, he was a little sleepy and missed the peaceful and quiet atmosphere in the palace. The third princess got up in a hurry, and carefully lifted her from the queen's arms. He picked it up by himself, fearing that it would be bumped, and hugged it all the way to the Queen Mother. He pulled the third princess and gave a thankful cry, then rolled into the Queen Mother's arms without saying a word.Being so listless and so dependent on herself, the Empress Dowager was slightly taken aback, a bit of pity appeared in her eyes.

It is said that children's eyes are the cleanest, and they can't see such ugly things.

Feeling pity in her heart, the queen mother only held A Yuan in her arms, and when she looked up, she saw the anxious face of the third princess, sighed slightly in her heart, and said softly, "You are a good boy, don't think too much after you go back." Gong What kind of place is there, the queen mother will never know, if she shows that she hates the third princess today, the inner eunuchs outside will be able to step on the face of the third princess.

"What a good boy?" Just when the third princess nodded quickly, she heard a man's clear voice from outside. A Yuan poked his head out to look outside, and saw a dazzling bright yellow light in the sunshine of the palace gate. He walked in slowly, walked in front of the queen mother and greeted the queen mother, and then received the gift from the queen and all the concubines, and said with a smile, "The daughter of the third brother, the queen mother asked the son to have a look?" Seeing the queen mother's arms, a The timid little red bag showed a pair of round eyes, and couldn't help but smile and said, "Why is it so small?"

After finishing speaking, he leaned over and hugged A Yuan out of the Queen Mother's arms and said with a smile, "I'm your imperial uncle." However, as soon as he finished speaking, he felt a moist feeling seeping into his arms along his arms. , looked in surprise at the little A Yuan who was about to cry.

"This is..." The corner of Saint's mouth twitched slightly.
