The concubine is enchanting: the favorite princess

Chapter 159 Mrs. Chu has a good intention

Everyone said "Jiang is old and spicy", now Fengyao understands that old general Chu really worked hard.Before his father abdicated, he was already planning to let Chu Qingchan find a backer between the prince and himself.

But now that he has figured it out, Feng Yao feels that Mrs. Chu's tea is even more undrinkable.

Leaving aside the intimacy or estrangement between himself and the prince, just because the prince pushed himself out to do the drudgery of receiving the envoys of Yunqing Kingdom, he also saw that the prince and himself would never be on the same team.In the future, when the crown prince ascends the throne, I'm afraid it will be time for him to leave Beijing.Old General Chu's calculations were indeed accurate, but it was too early.

Feng Yao thought about it for a while, but it was a little flashy effort, and then smiled and said: "It's just a few sticks of incense, it's a small skill that Feng Yao has learned since he was a child, and he was doing it for fun when he was idle, can you help me?" Mrs. Chu is the best. If Mrs. Chu is concerned about this matter, Feng Yao will be even more sorry. Moreover, the envoy of Yunqing Kingdom is coming, Feng Yao really has important things to do. Mrs. Chu's heart, Feng Yao Thank you."

Mrs. Chu expressed her sincere thanks, but it was inconvenient to force her.Hearing what Feng Yao said, he had no choice but to bow and see him off.

Feng Yao then returned to the sedan chair and ordered people to pick up the sedan chair and return to the residence.

When Mrs. Chu turned her head again, she saw her son Chu Qingchan's eyes were still looking at Feng Yao's away sedan chair, and the disappointment and sadness in his eyes were more distinct.

Mrs. Chu sighed and said, "Qingchan, mother knows what you are thinking. But when I saw you today, I knew that mother had planned for you. This eldest princess is really not a good match for you. I am afraid that your grandfather's thoughts will also be affected this time." It may not be comprehensive. This eldest princess of Fengjue Kingdom is not mediocre, it is really not easy. As for the future...you can be a courtier with peace of mind."

Chu Qingchan's heart was still slightly sour, although she never blamed her mother for making a marriage arrangement for herself when Feng Yao left, so that she had no chance to wait for Feng Yao to come back.But this time I was slightly surprised to hear my mother say this.Glancing at the direction where Fengyao's sedan chair left, he said leisurely: "Qing Chan knows the painstaking efforts of grandfather and mother, so he should make good friends with the prince and help him wholeheartedly."

"Qing Chan, you are wrong." Mrs. Chu shook her head and said, "It is not the prince you want to be loyal to."

Chu Qingchan stared round her eyes, staring blankly at her mother.I was very surprised in my heart: If I am not loyal to assist the crown prince, is it... Is it still necessary to assist the eldest princess? ! !
Mrs. Chu then said: "Although you have a famous teacher in the mountains, you are excellent in martial arts and proficient in the art of war. But after all, you are new to the officialdom, and you don't know how to be an official, let alone the loyalty of a minister. You should be loyal to the emperor. There is only one emperor today."

Chu Qingchan broke out in a cold sweat, and nodded quickly: "Yes, Qingchan understands that Qingchan is naturally the most loyal to the emperor. But after a hundred years..." Chu Qingchan means: the emperor will always have a hundred years later, and he will follow him. The prince is always right.

"After a hundred years, you still have to be loyal to the emperor." Mrs. Chu shook her head greatly, it seemed that her son really didn't understand what she meant.It's just that I don't know that it won't be too late until he gradually understands.

Having said so much, I can't go any further. Mrs. Chu looked around, and fortunately, they were all loyal servants of the Chu family.And this is a street corner, mother and son whispering something will not attract attention.If you hide in the study and teach in a low voice, then you are afraid that the partition wall has ears.

Feng Yao returned to the princess mansion, changed his palace attire, sat in the pavilion in the garden and drank plum wine.Gradually, the wine flushed the face, and the moon slowly rose, making the flower pavilion full of fragrant flowers and hazy moonlight.

After many days of busy work, I finally have some free time, just waiting for the news from the envoy of Yunqing Kingdom.Count the days, it's really coming.It's just strange, why haven't any spies replied with accurate information?
"Princess, let's have some snacks, this plum wine is too much." Lu Luo was happy to see Feng Yao drinking alone, but she was still afraid that she would get drunk and get a headache.

Feng Yao picked up a piece of mung bean cake and took a bite, then asked Lu Luo, "You sisters have been with me for more than ten years, right? Are you bored?"

"What's the princess talking about? Get drunk. We sisters will serve the princess all our lives, how can we be bored. Besides, the princess is a rare good master. Even if Ziying is talkative, I'm too lazy and never blame her. Lu Luo took a small stool and sat beside Feng Yao, and said with a smile while beating her legs.

"That's not necessarily true. Look at Zi Ying, she's a grown man, but she still keeps her mouth open. She hasn't restrained herself for so many years, but she's become more and more powerful." Feng Yao spat with a smile, and said: "I don't know. Blame her for being careless, in fact, I am most afraid of those who have a heart."

"Where does she have a heart, the family said that she is lucky to be with the master, but she always makes the master angry." Lu Luo also felt that this girl was sometimes too talkative and caused a lot of trouble for no reason, but she persuaded: "Princess please!" Don't worry, in fact, Zi Ying is also thinking of entertaining the princess. She is probably pretending to be stupid, deliberately to amuse the princess."

"Haha, on purpose, I'm really afraid that she will do it on purpose." Feng Yao also laughed, took another gulp of the plum wine in his hand, and said with a smile: "In a few days, my daughter will really come, is she going to be crazy with her?" ? I think you should take care of her temper, if you continue to be so presumptuous, I will not spare her. "

"Yes, I know, I've been taking care of it all the time. Sometimes I wish I could sew her mouth shut." Luluo said what was wrong with Ziying, but she wanted to protect her wholeheartedly.

Feng Yao gave a "hmm" and took another sip of wine.I don't know if the drunkenness really got on my head, but I closed my eyes and leaned against the pillar of the flower pavilion, as if falling asleep.

Lu Luo quietly got up and took the flagon from Feng Yao's hand, lit another incense stick to drive away the mosquitoes, and sat beside Feng Yao and fanned her.

After an unknown amount of time, Feng Yao suddenly said, "Actually, I know that your family still wants to get rid of slavery. It's just that the Chen family is not willing to let it go."

"Ah?" Lu Luo originally thought Feng Yao was asleep, but suddenly she was startled when she heard Feng Yao speak.But hearing what Feng Yao said, he also sighed leisurely: "We are the slaves of the Chen family, and we were placed by the Chen family next to several prominent masters. If we get out of slavery, who will serve the masters? .”

What Luluo said is correct, not only the two of them sisters served as personal maids for Fengyao, but one of their older brothers became the prince's stable boy; the other cousin was the court lady next to Concubine Chu, although she was too young to be a first-class maid. The palace maids are always the ones sent by the Chen family, so they won't be buried too much.

But if they are really freed from slavery, who will serve these masters?What's more, it's not that it's not easy to be a close servant of the master, but because you know too many secrets, so you can't get away.
