Concubine's Handbook of Good Life in Ancient Times

Chapter 309

The Fourth Prince is a man of his word, and immediately sent people to the Liaodong area to inquire about the news after returning home. However, it will take time to inquire about the news, so this can only be done slowly, not in a hurry.

However, the actions of the Great Xia Dynasty recently frightened the neighboring small countries, and they sent their princes or princesses to pay tribute, fearing that the Great Xia would come to their country's borders for military training.

The island country was attacked as a country without people, but their country is not a country without people~

The destruction of the island country did not arouse any sympathy from the surrounding countries. It was not only Daxia that was affected by the Japanese pirates, but also the surrounding small countries.

As soon as the island country was destroyed, there were clapping voices everywhere, wishing to applaud loudly, deserve it and so on.It can be seen how hated the islanders are, and now that they are wiped out in one fell swoop, no one has sympathy.

"Wan Guo came to court, although there are no Wan Guo, there are dozens of countries!" Shu Ning leaned on the Queen's shoulder, still holding the embroidery shed in her hand, planning to embroider a handkerchief for herself.

"Well, it just so happens that Longevity Day is here, so it's an opportunity."

They showed their faces in front of Emperor Daxia, as long as Emperor Daxia supported them, and asked Daxia for anything, Emperor Daxia might look at their sincere and respectful face and send troops to help their country deal with some invading enemies.

"Oh~ I'm going to attend the state banquet again, I'm tired."

For the usual palace banquets, they can be more casual, they don't have to wear court clothes and phoenix robes, but they can't do it for state banquets, they must be formally dressed.

"Used to it."

The queen looked at the noble concubine helplessly, is she the one who really wants to say the hard work?The court dress on her body will only be heavier than that of the imperial concubine.

"But I just can't get used to it!"

Shuning turned to lie down, and threw the embroidery shed in her hand on the table.

"You'll get used to it."

There will be many days like this in the future. When the noble concubine becomes the Queen Mother, such days will only be more tiring.The court clothes of the empress dowagers of the two palaces are similar, basically there is no difference.The imperial concubine is tired now, what can I do in the future?

"Forget it, the boat will go straight when it reaches the bridge. When it really comes, just say you're sick if you don't want to participate."

Shuning fell backwards, startling the queen, thinking that something was wrong with her.In the end, the imperial concubine was so bored that she spread her hands and counted the flowers on the roof.

Concubine...

The queen rubbed her forehead, she was frightened into a cold sweat just now.

"Sister, what's wrong with you?"

The culprit asked her without knowing it.

"fine."

He replied weakly.

"By the way, Mrs. Yongning Hou handed over the sign, have you seen it?"

The lady of Yongning Hou mentioned by the queen was not Wang, but Zhao, the wife of Fang Xian, the eldest son of the Fang family.Just a month ago, the Marquis of Yongning passed the title to his son very smoothly, and became the old Marquis together with the old man.

The old man and the old lady are old, and now they rarely appear in front of people, so the original Yongninghou has now become the old man, and Wang has become the old lady.

"Forget it, see you!" Shuning finally nodded.She hasn't seen her sister-in-law for many years, so it's good to meet her once.

After Mrs. Zhao entered the palace, she first went to pay her respects to the empress. After sitting for a while, the empress asked someone to take her to Changning Palace to meet the noble concubine.

Looking at the Changning Palace, which was even more luxuriously furnished than the Chaoyang Pavilion, Mrs. Zhao had no envy in her eyes, only sighs.

"See Empress."

Mrs. Zhao bowed down when she saw Shuning.

"Please, sister-in-law, my family doesn't need so much courtesy."

Ask Mei Chun to support Mrs. Zhao.

"Thank you madam."

Zhao stood up.

"Sit down and watch tea."

Shu Ning looked at the elder sister-in-law who looked old but was in good spirits. Now that it was finally her turn to be the masters of the Hou Mansion, she and her elder brother should be in good spirits.

"My lady..."

Mrs. Zhao looked at Shuning and hesitated to speak.

She was a little bit reluctant to open her mouth, but thinking of her natal family's repeated visits, Zhao had no choice but to open her mouth again.

"Sister-in-law speaks frankly, she is not an outsider."

Shu Ning's eyebrows turned, and she had some guesses about Zhao's intentions. It seemed that it was not Fang's business to make her feel so embarrassed.If it's not about Fang's family, then it's only about her natal family.

"I'm ashamed to say that the son of my wife's natal brother accidentally killed someone and begged on my wife's head. My wife..."

Speaking of this, Mrs. Zhao knelt down. Firstly, she knew that she made it difficult for the imperial concubine, and secondly, the imperial concubine's complexion was really not good-looking.Thinking of Fang's family, in order not to cause trouble for the empress, they even rarely enter the palace, and even restrain the clansmen, but they don't want her to run into the palace today to embarrass the empress.

"Sister-in-law is entering the palace today, does elder brother know?"

Shuning didn't cry out, picked up the tea and scraped it lightly.

"Do not……"

How dare Zhao shi let Fang Xian know, if he knew, he would have to give up himself.

But her natal family has begged her, and she has no choice!What's more, the person who was locked up was her nephew.

"Sister-in-law, do you remember what your last name is now?"

Although the surname is Zhao, the surname Fang needs to be added in front of it!
Her natal family never dared to use such a thing to intercede, and the Zhao family was very easy to order.

"My lady..."

Zhao's heart was startled, she always knew that the sister-in-law who was always favored in the harem was not a simple person, but she never thought that when the imperial concubine really turned cold, she would be so frightening.

Yes, be afraid.Mrs. Zhao regretted it, she shouldn't have entered the palace today.
