Reborn Concubine Queen

Chapter 30
Jian Liu paused his steps, hesitantly leaned over to salute and called out: "Miss Six."

Shi Yiqing followed Jianliu's line of sight, under a sea of ​​enchanting maple leaves, Shi Zeqian's long royal blue dress was even more eye-catching.She waved her hand to let Jianliu wait on her side, and she quickly stepped forward and smiled, "This is not a good place to enjoy, Sixth Sister specially chose this place, but who are you waiting for?"

Shi Zeqian, who was twirling a maple leaf and smiling, turned her eyes to look at Shi Yiqing, and said slowly: "What my sister said is that this is really not a fun place. If it wasn't for my sister, I'm afraid I wouldn't even be able to see the sun today."

Shi Yiqing said indifferently: "The Buddha said well that there are causes and effects. Who knows if the cause of the sixth sister's previous life has brought about today's effect, and today's effect will affect tomorrow's effect. What's the reason?"

Shi Zeqian narrowed her cold eyes and said, "Your sister is threatening me?"

"No, you are my most respected sister. Even if Qing'er kills me, I wouldn't dare to threaten my sister." Shi Yiqing smiled hypocritically, "It's just that my sister has never thought about it. Today you and I are in Tangliyuan If we join hands together, will it be discovered by others tomorrow, if it is discovered by that narrow-minded person, has my sister ever thought about the consequences?"

Shi Zeqian smiled coldly: "Your sister is a bit unfounded, right? Let me not talk about my father's hereditary title, just say that we have the same surname as Shi. The person you mentioned will not attack me, right?"

Shi Yiqing continued provocatively and said: "My sister is really confused, don't forget, if the eldest uncle loses the qualification for the hereditary title, according to the rules of the Dayan Dynasty, my father is the most qualified to inherit it, only my father If you don't take the initiative, you will get the eldest brother's turn."

Noticing Shi Zeqian's paler expression, she lowered her eyelashes to hide the satisfied smile in her eyes, and continued: "Even if that person has no intention of taking away the title of eldest uncle, just talking about the grievances between that person and eldest aunt, In addition, you ruined her good deed this time, do you think she will find a fault in you and keep suppressing you?"

Shi Zeqian lost her composure and yelled in a low voice: "She caused everything. If she hadn't let someone take me away and lock me up, how could I stand up and say those things?!"

Shi Yiqing turned her cold gaze to watch Shi Zeqian's gaffe: "Sixth sister, if you say that, you need evidence. If you don't have any evidence to prove that she sent someone to take me away and lock me up, that's slander, you If you have a red mouth and white teeth, even if you sue the Golden Luan Hall, you won't get any benefits."

She paused, and continued: "My dear cousin, I feel wronged for you. You talk about you. You came to our house to play for no reason, but you were taken advantage of by someone with a heart, and you almost lost your life. If it was me, I won't endure it any longer."

Shi Zeqian hesitated and asked, "If you were you, what would you do?"

Shi Yi Qinghuan stared at the fiery maple leaves in front of her eyes, and said to herself, "I heard that my mother is looking for a good marriage for the third sister recently, but the third sister has taken a fancy to Li Can, the seventh prince of the Great Yan Dynasty. A few days ago, my mother even dragged people from my mother's family to propose marriage, and I think the emperor will issue a decree in a few days to make my third sister the seventh prince's side concubine."

Shi Zeqian smiled disdainfully: "Just her? Just her? Can the emperor make an order to choose the seventh prince as a side concubine? Let alone whether the seventh prince will agree, even the imperial concubine will not agree!"

"Sister, I don't know something about this." Shi Yiqing let out a sigh, "My sister has been in the house all year round and never went out. I don't know what people outside are talking about the young lady of our Shi family. Yes, our Shi family Apart from a title earned by my grandfather in the early years, there is nothing else, but now our family finally has a Shangshu lord, and my eldest sister married far away from the border, so it can be regarded as related to both the military and the government. As an official in the court, he is very honest and clear, and is deeply favored by the emperor, and everyone says that marrying the young lady of our family is beneficial and harmless."

Seeing Shi Zeqian's more serious expression, Shi Yiqing evoked an imperceptible sneer, and continued: "Although the Seventh Prince is of noble birth and has the help of his relatives, if he can marry the daughter of the Minister of the Ministry of Officials through marriage , so as to get more attention from the emperor, wouldn't it be better? Now that my father is under his knees, the one who can make the seventh prince look up to him is the third sister. Now that I think about it, the position of the seventh prince's side concubine is reserved for the third sister. But it couldn't be better."

Shi Zeqian stomped her feet angrily: "That bitch Shi Xuanxin deserves to marry the Seventh Prince? No, it won't work!" After finishing speaking, ignoring Shi Yiqing by her side, she left in a hurry with anger on her face Three-bedroom yard.

Jianliu, who was waiting outside, walked forward quickly, looked in Shi Zeqian's direction and asked doubtfully, "Miss Six was fine just now, why did she get so angry after such a short time?"

Shi Yiqing widened the sneer at the corner of his lips, and said with a sneer: "I quite like her reckless temper now."

Seeing that Shi Yiqing didn't want to say more, Jianliu didn't ask anymore, and helped Shi Yiqing turn around the yard, and Yinxiu and the other two waited on her to freshen up, loosen her hair in a bun, changed her clothes, and served hot tea. He stepped back and closed the door behind him.

Everyone around Shi Yiqing knew that when she was resting, besides Madam Xu, who could take care of her, even Jianliu Yinxiu, who was on duty at night, had to rest outside.

Taking a sip of hot tea, Shi Yiqing leaned tiredly on the soft pillow and fell asleep. When her consciousness became more and more calm, she vaguely felt that someone broke into the room on tiptoe and walked towards her. Gougou looked at the person coming.

Mother Xu patted her chest, and said in shock, "What's wrong with you? You were surprised."

Shi Yiqing saw that it was Madam Xu who came, put down his hanging heart a little, and asked suspiciously: "Mama, come in if you want, why are you so cautious?"

"I saw that you were sleeping with a tired face, and I couldn't bear to disturb you, so I thought about taking it easy, but I didn't expect you to be shocked."

Only then did Shi Yiqing see the thin blanket in Madam Xu's hands, his heart felt warm, and the doubts in his heart were instantly dispelled. He pulled Madam Xu to sit beside him, leaned on her shoulder infinitely, sighed, and said: "Mommy, I miss you so much."

Mother Xu raised her brows with a half-smile: "My miss, I haven't seen you all night, so you miss me?"

"Didn't the ancients say that seeing each other every day is like three autumns? Since he didn't see the person he met in a day, it felt like three years had passed. Then I haven't seen him for half a day, isn't it a year? Half the time?"

Mother Xu smiled and said: "You, I told you to study hard, but you refused. I'm just talking about it here. If outsiders hear it, I'm afraid they'll laugh their ass off!"

Shi Yiqing said coquettishly: "Nurse, I just passed the gate of hell, so don't come to preach with a stern face, okay? Don't let me talk like a young lady today, the two of us are casual, It's like being outside, okay?"

Mother Xu looked at Shi Yiqing's still red and swollen cheeks distressedly, got up and took the ointment from the cabinet and applied it on her, and said angrily: "Master can really do it, how much effort will it take to swell like this?" What does it look like?"

The ice-cold ointment was applied to his cheeks. Shi Yiqing listened to Madam Xu's rambling words, felt her care and maintenance, a soreness swirled up from the bottom of his heart, trapped in his chest and continued to swell, and finally turned into tears and rolled down.

Shi Yiqing stretched out the bracelet around Nanny Xu's waist with tears all over her face, and carefully leaned against Nanny Xu's chest with the half of her face that was not covered with ointment, and said with a sob: "Mommy, tell me, why are we coming back to Beijing?" Right or wrong?"

Madam Xu's rough hand patted Shi Yiqing's back lightly, and after a long silence, she let out a sigh of relief: "It's my fault, if I could have thought in advance that the master would be so biased, it would hurt you even more. Even if I try my best, I will take you away and never come back."

When Shi Yiqing heard Xu Nanny's words, he felt a little comforted in his heart, stood up and wiped his tears and said seriously: "Mommy, do you still remember what you said to persuade me in Jingxin Temple? Now I feel more and more that what you said is right, no matter what my biological mother is, I was born as a young lady of the Shi family, so there is no reason why I should not enjoy the honor and wealth that the Shi family brought me! How about a concubine, a concubine also has the ability to fight back!"

Mother Xu looked at Shi Yiqing worriedly: "What do you want?"

Shi Yiqing turned her eyes to notice her uneasiness, and smiled indiscriminately: "Don't worry, mother, I will not do anything that is not good for me, let alone put myself in trouble. I just let those who framed me People, those who owe me, just pay a little interest."

Raising her eyebrows, she remembered something, and she asked, "Nurse, I asked you to find a housekeeper, did you find it?"

"I found it. I've been wanting to tell you about it for the past two days." Mother Xu said hastily, "Man, I've found it for you, but I just don't know what you want to do."

"So fast? What are you looking for?"

Madam Xu frowned hesitantly, and said, "It was a distant relative of mine who was originally in the Xiao family, but now he came out of the Xiao family to work outside."

"Didn't I say that it's better not to use someone from the Xiao family?" Shi Yiqing shook his head, "Is there any other candidate?"

Mother Xu said with a distressed face: "I have been away from Beijing for many years, and the people I knew in the early years have left or are not here. Although the rest of them know each other, they don't know each other. Only this person is me in Xiao's house. I have been a friend for many years, and I can still trust his character."

Shi Yiqing rubbed the center of his eyebrows helplessly, and said slowly: "Since Mammy thinks it's reliable, it should be him. Tomorrow afternoon, you find a free time and take me out of the house. I want to meet him outside."

Mother Xu was surprised: "Miss, how can you leave the mansion? If that person finds out..."

"Don't let her know, isn't it all right?" Shi Yiqing deepened the smile in his eyes with an indiscernible expression, and said slowly, "Don't worry, I have my own way to keep that wicked woman from knowing my whereabouts. Ma'am Mommy, you go out of the house now to reserve a private room in Dengxian Pavilion, remember, we don’t have much money in our hands, so we can order food without ordering, you know?”

Mother Xu was stunned: "How did Miss know about going to the Immortal Pavilion?"

Shi Yiqing laughed softly: "Could Mammy have forgotten that we were passing by on our way back to Beijing. Could it be that Mammy doesn't even believe what I say?"

Mother Xu hesitated, and said after hesitating again and again: "Of course I believe what Miss said, but the Dengxian Pavilion is a place frequented by dignitaries, and the food and drinks are not cheap. You can’t even pay for a private room.”

Shi Yiqing stretched out his hand and patted Nanny Xu on the shoulder, and said with a smile, "Don't worry, Mammy, Qing'er has his own way, so you can go."
