slave like jade
Chapter 117
Chapter 117
Concubine Shu, who has always been timid and cowardly, never expected that Mu Lingzhi would come to her remote erotic palace to meet her in person, and she was so startled that she was restless. , even more frightened!
On the one hand, she was happy that her daughter had gone through hardships, and married the most outstanding man in the world by accident. She was very happy, but on the other hand, she was worried about Mu Lingzhi's sudden visit, and she just held Yu Ruyan's hand at a loss.
Mu Lingzhi invited her to sit down in the upper seat, and solemnly knelt down to salute her, saying: "Young son-in-law is negligent, he has been with Yanyan for so long before he came to pay his respects to mother and concubine, and it was too hasty to come here this time. , and did not prepare a generous gift, please forgive me, concubine mother!"
According to the rules of the palace, even if she is Yu Ruyan's biological mother with a background like Shu Concubine, outsiders will not really regard her as the princess' mother concubine. What's more, Mu Lingzhi's background is so respected that even King Qi I can't afford such a big gift from him, so his move is really surprising.
Concubine Shu was shocked, and was so frightened that she wanted to kneel down to pay respects to Mu Lingzhi, but Yu Ruyan held her back and said softly: "Concubine Mu, this is His Highness's wish, you can take it at ease. There are no outsiders here ,Do not worry."
After hearing Yu Ruyan's words, Concubine Shu calmed down, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, I'm so humble!"
Seeing Concubine Shu's uneasy expression, Mu Lingzhi said seriously: "Concubine Mother, my son-in-law is still looking forward to your remorse and reprimand!"
After all, he knelt down again very seriously.
Seeing his serious look, Concubine Shu had tears in her eyes, pulled him up and said with heartache: "Because of me, Yan'er has suffered a lot since she was a child, and I only hope that after she marries you, you will be fine." Stay by her side for a long time, treat her well! Don't ask His Highness to spoil her alone, as long as... as long as she doesn't suffer too much grievance."
Mu Lingzhi nodded and smiled, and said respectfully: "My son-in-law, remember, I will only love her in this life, and I will definitely treat her well."
After hearing what he said, Concubine Shu was completely relieved, let go of the anxiety in her heart, and happily left them to have lunch together, and Mu Lingzhi agreed without hesitation.
A meal in harmony!
As soon as the bowl was put down, the maid of Chunlan Palace arrived at the door, handed Concubine Shu a post and obediently withdrew.
Yu Ruyan was suspicious in her heart, took a look at the post, it was Concubine Lian hosting a banquet at Chunlan Palace tonight, inviting the female family members of the harem to attend, and Concubine Shu was also invited!
Why did Chunlan Palace hold a banquet for no reason?
Yu Ruyan's eyes turned cold, and she said coldly: "Mother Concubine, this Concubine Lian must have no good intentions, you just shrug off your discomfort and don't go."
Concubine Shu was very careful and said: "Concubine Lian personally posted the post, and all the female family members in the palace will go. If I don't go, she will say that I was spoiled by your glory and gave her a reason for no reason. , so, don’t go!”
Yu Ruyan also understood the meaning of this, so she ordered: "After you go, you should come back immediately, don't stay too long, and don't pay attention to what they say."
Concubine Shu nodded seriously, "I remember it for my mother."
After returning from the Yaochun Palace, those people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs were still carrying water for the Jinying Palace to relieve the summer heat, and they were all pale with exhaustion.
If you think about it, on this hot day, when water is splashed on the ground, it will evaporate within half an hour, especially when the sun is the most poisonous at noon. The water in the water has been evaporated by the heat, so there is nothing to do except to carry water continuously.
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs couldn't sit still anymore, not only called all the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to help carry water, but also personally delivered the ice cubes from the summer heat to the Hibiscus Palace, waiting in the palace with sweat profusely Mu Lingzhi and Yu Ruyan came back.
However, after a day of tossing by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Hibiscus Cherry Palace was indeed much cooler, water was poured on the roof, and artificial rain began to fall. When Mu Lingzhi entered, he nodded in satisfaction.
The general manager looked at this irresistible big Buddha and smiled respectfully, "Your Highness, these slaves have offended His Highness because of their inappropriate handling. This old slave will definitely punish them when he returns home. Your Highness, please extinguish your anger."
Mu Lingzhi looked at the trembling chief in front of him with his hands behind his back, and said: "My palace never plays cards according to the rules when marching and fighting, and it's the same in being a human being, and it's very protective. If you dare to neglect the fifth princess or the concubine Shu in the future , it’s not as simple as picking water for half a day.”
The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs could finally retreat, one by one fighting each other, leaving the Hibiscus Cherry Palace as if fleeing, never daring to underestimate this little-known fifth princess.
The hall cooled down, Mu Lingzhi went to bed for a nap, Yu Ruyan looked at the invitation card handed over by Brother An, she knew it was from Chunlan Palace without looking at it, she didn't even bother to look at it, and replied: "I must I won't go, don't bother me."
Thinking that Wu Zhaoyi's month is approaching, Yu Ruyan is going to visit her in Chunwu Palace, but before she leaves, Wu Zhaoyi has already taken the initiative to find her.
Seeing her coming with a big belly, Yu Ruyan hurriedly welcomed her into the side hall and sat down. Looking at the slightly panicked expression on her face, she asked with concern: "I was going to visit my empress, but I didn't expect her to be inconvenient. Here you go, what's the rush, Madam?"
If there was no urgent matter, would Wu Zhaoyi come to her with a big belly in the midday heat?
Seeing Yu Ruyan's affection for her, Wu Zhaoyi let go of half of the worries in her heart, and couldn't help but anxiously took Yu Ruyan's hand and said earnestly: "Princess, it's really great for you to return to the palace this time, you are my savior .Please also ask the princess to help me with our past friendship."
Yu Ruyan looked at her bulging belly, and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with your mother? Your mother's life-saving grace in the past, Ruyan never dared to forget, if I could help, I would definitely help her. "
After hearing her words, Wu Zhaoyi was completely relieved, and expressed all the worries in her heart.
It turned out that a few days ago, Qi Wangxie had a dream when he was in Chunwu Palace. He dreamed that a green dragon was circling and flying around a fig tree. , It is really a rare good dream.
The first time King Qi woke up, he found the supervisor of Qin Tianjian to help him interpret the dream. The supervisor listened and said, this is an extremely rare fetal dream. The fig is a symbol of the princess.
When King Qi heard this, he was overjoyed.
Now only Wu Zhaoyi is pregnant in the harem, and it is a rare twin, which is very consistent with King Qi's dream. Therefore, according to the supervisor, everyone said that Wu Zhaoyi's pregnancy must be a rare twin. Twins.
As soon as the news came out, not only the king of Qi was overjoyed, but even the queen mother of Huayang Palace was alarmed. The queen mother was also so happy that she sent a white jade Guanyin statue that had been enshrined in the Buddhist hall to Chunwu Palace for Wu Zhaoyi's peace. In addition to praying for the child in Wu Zhaoyi's womb, she chanted scriptures and chanted Buddha every day.
King Qi originally wanted to elevate Wu Zhaoyi's position immediately, but the queen mother was afraid that too much blessing would be given to her at once, and would surprise the prince in her belly, so she suppressed it, but promised that if Wu Zhaoyi could really give birth this time, A twin of a dragon and a phoenix, she must be promoted to the position of imperial concubine!
As soon as the queen mother said this, there was a commotion in the palace.
Now the highest status in this harem is Concubine Lian. If Wu Zhaoyi gave birth to a child and became a noble concubine, her son would also be the only prince in this palace, and he would definitely be a prince.If she becomes the mother of the prince, Wu Zhaoyi must be the queen who has been vacant for a long time.
However, Concubine Lian, who had been coveting the successor and was bound to win it, would give up so easily. Therefore, Wu Zhaoyi, who was obviously the most eye-catching in the palace, was actually pushed to the forefront.
"...I'm going to give birth soon. Logically speaking, Concubine Lian would definitely not want to see my child be born, so I have been careful and careful. But I didn't expect that not only did the poisonous woman not have a plan this time. She came to poison me, but she carefully took care of Chunwu Palace, but the more she behaved like this, the more uneasy and frightened I felt."
"Later, I bought a little maid from Chunlan Palace and asked her to quietly help me inquire about the movement of Chunlan Palace. Unexpectedly, I asked her to find out that Concubine Lian was quietly preparing for the palace in her palace. She was wearing baby clothes and other baby things, but she didn't give those clothes to me, but kept it for herself..."
"Chunlan Palace didn't have a baby born in person, so why prepare the child's utensils, so, I thought, she must, must be thinking-killing the chicken to get the egg!"
Wu Zhaoyi was originally a very smart woman, so after careful consideration, she immediately thought of Concubine Lian's final conspiracy, and suddenly a chill spread from her feet to her head, and her whole body became cold!
"—Killing the chicken to get the eggs?!" Yu Ruyan's heart was shocked, she was as smart as she suddenly thought of the incident of An Lirong laying yellow heart grass on Gu Qing'er before, and her heart suddenly became clear——
Unexpectedly, Concubine Lian and An Lirong had the same thoughts.
"Yes, the reason why she never did anything to me, instead she took care of Chunwu Palace uncharacteristically, except for wanting me to give birth to a child smoothly, and then killing me and taking my emperor's son as her son, there is no other possibility .”
When Wu Zhaoyi thought of Concubine Lian's poisonous plan, she was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, and when she thought of the child she had worked so hard to conceive, being missed by others before it was born, she hated to the extreme.
Therefore, she will definitely not sit still, but she also knows that a woman's childbirth is the life of the lamp, just like that weak candle, if one is not careful, it will be extinguished by the wind, it is really a crisis of life, What's more, she is still pregnant with twins, and the difficulty of childbirth is even more dangerous than normal childbirth. If she is allowed to tamper with during childbirth, she will definitely die!
"So I came to beg the princess today, please see that I came forward to help you that day, you must help me this time, and help me overcome the difficulties during childbirth." Wu Zhaoyi almost knelt down to Yu Ruyan, feeling very sad in a hurry!
"What do you want me to do?" Yu Ruyan also knew the urgency of the situation, so she couldn't help frowning and asked solemnly.
"My confinement physician has calculated for me that it will be around the end of this month. I hope that the princess will help me by my bedside and watch over me when I give birth..."
"...My natal family cannot enter the palace to accompany me. Now in this palace, I only trust the princess, and only the princess has the ability to protect me now."
Wu Zhaoyi held Yu Ruyan's hand tightly, as if grasping at the last straw, steadfastly holding onto it.
What she said was true, now in this palace, there will be no one other than Yu Ruyan who dares to confront Concubine Lian.
This is because she is surrounded by Mu Lingzhi, who is extremely protective but kind to Da Qi. Even King Qi wants to give him face and is afraid of him. Therefore, Concubine Lian dare not treat Yu Ru now. How about Yan, Wu Zhaoyi came to find her but he was right.
Hearing Wu Zhaoyi's words, Yu Ruyan couldn't help thinking of Gu Qing'er's death in her mind, thinking of her dead body and two lives, if Concubine Lian really wanted to kill her during her delivery as Wu Zhaoyi guessed, I'm afraid At that time, there will be three dead bodies.
Furthermore, Yu Ruyan thought that Da Qi had never had a prince, and no one would inherit his father's great power in the future. If the child in Wu Zhaoyi's belly really had a boy, it would solve Da Qi's dilemma.
Therefore, regardless of the considerations, Yu Ruyan must help with this favor.
She solemnly nodded to Wu Zhaoyi and said: "My mother saved my life that day, and also helped me get rid of that hateful person Yiyun, and returned my innocence. I will definitely return this kindness to my mother."
Hearing her promise, Wu Zhaoyi's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, and she couldn't help touching her chest and said, "With the words of the princess, I can finally sleep with peace of mind. But right now, there is one thing I need the princess to help with."
Yu Ruyan asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Wu Zhaoyi said helplessly: "Presumably the princess has also received the banquet post from Chunlan Palace tonight. She handed it to me in front of the emperor. How can I not accept it? If I accept it, how can I not go. I can't even refuse." But there is no way of knowing whether tonight's banquet will be bad or good, and I want to ask the princess to go with me and stay by my side, so that I can rest assured."
Yu Ruyan had already made up her mind not to go, but now she had to go, she nodded her head in agreement.
Looking at Wu Zhaoyi in front of her, Yu Ruyan suddenly thought of something, and said to Wu Zhaoyi with a smile: "Your Majesty, Ruyan also asks your Majesty for something!"
Wu Zhaoyi's troubles and fears that plagued her heart disappeared, and she was in a good mood. She couldn't help but smiled happily and said, "Princess, you are welcome. If you have something to say between us, you can just speak directly, and you don't need to be detained."
"Your Majesty is a straightforward person, so I'll just say it straight."
Yu Ruyan said seriously: "Your Majesty knows that I will not be able to stay in Daqi for a long time, and I will marry Daliang. My mother and concubine...she has a cowardly personality and has no one to rely on. Assuming a high position, I hope that my mother will take care of the love between you and me, and protect my mother and concubine after I leave."
"It's inevitable, princess, don't worry." Wu Zhaoyi agreed without even thinking about it.
It was night, King Qi and Concubine Lian held banquets in the front and back palaces respectively. King Qi entertained the generals who fought this time, and Mu Lingzhi must be indispensable.But Yu Ruyan had to go to Concubine Lian's banquet because she wanted to accompany Wu Zhaoyi.
During the banquet, Yu Ruyan had been carefully guarding Wu Zhaoyi and Concubine Shu's side, guarding against any monsters from Concubine Lian. However, the banquet at Chunlan Palace today was normal, but it was to celebrate Da Qi's victory. Concubine Lian As the lord of the first palace, the female relatives gathered in the harem to eat and drink together, just happy!
However, the more this was the case, the more disturbed Yu Ruyan felt. She couldn't believe that Concubine Lian put so much thought into setting up a banquet in her palace just to get together with everyone.
Wu Zhaoyi was very worried that Concubine Lian would frame her at the banquet before, and Concubine Shu was also trembling because of the ice cube, thinking that Concubine Lian would find an opportunity to embarrass herself, but Concubine Lian is very docile today, not only does she not say a word Wu Zhaoyi was polite to Wu Zhaoyi about bringing up ice cubes, but in Yu Ruyan's eyes, she felt that it was too abnormal.
She watched the people in Chunlan Palace vigilantly, only then realized that there seemed to be one missing person in Chunlan Palace tonight!
After thinking about it, she quickly told An Ge: "Go and have a look at the banquet in front."
Brother An got her order, and hurriedly went to the place where the banquet was held in the Zihua Palace in front of him, and quietly followed the servants in to have a look, he couldn't help being shocked!
In front of King Qi and everyone, Yu Mingzhu actually sat in Mu Lingzhi's arms! !
Brother An didn't know what happened before he came, but he saw the singing girls kneeling on the ground in the middle of the hall, shaking with fright, and one of them knelt directly in front of King Qi and Mu Lingzhi. Hoo 'damn! "
Brother An saw that Yu Mingzhu was lying shyly in Mu Lingzhi's arms in tulle, and couldn't help but get red-eyed——
It turned out that she was not in her own Chunlan Palace, but came to the banquet ahead to seduce Mu Lingzhi!
A little maid next to her recognized Brother An and knew that she was the girl next to the fifth princess, so she hurriedly told her the whole story in a low voice.
It turned out that when the front hall was full of wine just now, the king of Qi invited singing and dancing to add to the fun. What everyone didn't expect was that the dancer who led the dance was actually the eldest princess Yu Mingzhu.
She came here today prepared, wrapped in tulle, with gorgeous make-up, not only is she dressed in a seductive and sexy outfit, but also her dancing posture is charming and affectionate. Her big glazed eyes don't care about the eyes of everyone, she always throws emotions at Mu Lingzhi, and then dances Jumping and dancing, for some reason, another dancer tripped her feet, and just happened to fall into Mu Lingzhi's arms.
The little palace lady was also a real person, and she couldn't help but sighed in a low voice: "Oh, sister An, I have seen shameless people before, and I have never seen such shameless people. After a while, he deliberately leaned on His Highness and refused to get up for a moment, tsk, His Highness didn't even change his posture, he just focused on drinking and didn't even look at her!"
When Brother An heard this, he looked up. Sure enough, Mu Lingzhi kept drinking, neither looking at her nor speaking.But Yu Mingzhu wrapped around him like a soft and boneless beautiful snake, closing her eyes tightly as if frightened, enjoying the beauty of this moment hypnotically.
The faint ambergris on Mu Lingzhi's body was mixed with the unique masculinity of a man, which made Yu Mingzhu intoxicated. She quietly raised the corners of her eyes to look at him, only to feel that seeing him at a close distance was even more handsome, which made her tremble with joy. .
In the main hall, everyone watched this dramatic scene eagerly, except for the dancing girl who knelt in front of her and called 'forgive me', there was no other voice in the main hall.
King Qi sat tall and looked at his daughter who had successfully rolled into Mu Lingzhi's arms. Embarrassment flashed in his eyes, but he pretended not to care.
He thought that Yu Mingzhu had successfully attracted Mu Lingzhi's attention this time, and they hugged each other in public. After this time, it might be difficult for Mu Lingzhi to refuse the marriage offer.
However, just as King Qi was about to offer a marriage offer, Mu Lingzhi, who had always regarded the person hanging on his body as air, slowly put down the wine glass in his hand and rushed to speak in front of King Qi.
"What's the matter with the eldest princess? Are you throwing yourself into your arms? Oh, but I remember, aren't you still helping your unmarried husband-in-law in hemp and filial piety? Why did you come to me in such a suit!?"
His tone was lukewarm, as if he was making a joke, but without any emotion.
After finishing speaking, before everyone could recover from his harsh words, he stretched out his hand and threw the jade pearl, which was also shaken by his words, to the ground in the middle of the hall with a blunt bang.
Including King Qi, everyone was stunned by Mu Lingzhi's sudden actions!
The stunned Yu Mingzhu couldn't believe that she was thrown in front of everyone in such a disgusted way, and she was still in such a mess!
She stared dumbfounded at the indifferent Mu Lingzhi, and even forgot to get up——
After all, she is a noble eldest princess, how could he treat him like this, in front of his father and so many generals! ?
This makes her how to behave in the future! !
The dancer beside her quickly helped her up, she was trembling with anger, but she tried her best to hold back the anger in her heart, with tears in her eyes, she fell powerlessly to the ground, and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, I was careless just now. , unexpectedly... fell on His Highness, please forgive me!"
After finishing speaking, he turned around and cried to King Qi: "Father, my daughter just wanted to perform a dance to cheer up our Daqi warriors, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect... Now my daughter has a relationship with His Highness for no reason... ...My daughter has no face to live in the world!" After finishing speaking, she covered her face and began to cry.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was boiling!
It stands to reason that this incident was an accident, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, the princess rolled into His Highness's arms covered in a tulle, and the two of them were indeed close by skin. If the Third Highness didn't marry her, she would be innocent. It's really hard for her to marry again.
King Qi frowned in embarrassment, sighed and said helplessly: "My dear son-in-law, you have made great achievements in this battle for my great Qi, and I have always felt guilty for not thanking my dear son-in-law well." , now, it is better to follow the example of the ancients, E Huang Nv Ying, and the princess..."
"If your majesty really wants to thank my son-in-law, you are welcome, but there is a kindness that I would like to ask your majesty for permission!"
Mu Lingzhi unceremoniously interrupted King Qi's words, and also completely interrupted the hope in Yu Mingzhu's heart.
King Qi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect him to ask for it, so he couldn't help but asked embarrassingly: "I don't know what kindness my son-in-law wants?"
Mu Lingzhi smiled slowly, stood up and said: "Yan Yangui is Princess Heshuo, but her mother and concubine are just a small concubine, this-seems a bit... Oh, how about it, Your Majesty might as well treat me as a concubine." How about rewarding concubine Shu's mother and concubine for his kindness, how about my son-in-law begging for a reward from His Highness on behalf of mother and concubine?"
As soon as these words came out, King Qi was stunned on the spot——
His mother and concubine have all called out, at least he has to give Concubine Shu a position higher than that of Concubine Shu!
Although it's a bit too much to be promoted from a court lady to concubine, but compared to the thousands of miles of land Mu Lingzhi guarded for Da Qi, what is a concubine?
It's just that King Qi didn't expect that Mu Lingzhi would be so respectful and polite to that woman who was born as a court lady.
Thinking of this, King Qi smiled heartily and said: "My son-in-law and I would like to go together. I heard that the fifth princess will take care of the wounded in person in the barracks. Everyone praises her. Therefore, I am preparing to reward Shu concubine."
After all, just as he was about to speak the edict, Mu Lingzhi spoke again.
"Your Majesty, since the concubine's reward includes the concubine's reward, the son-in-law has to ask for another title for the concubine."
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was stunned.
You know, the rules of the harem are the same as concubines, and there is a difference between those with a title and those without a title.
Now the concubine in the harem does not have a title, if Concubine Shu has a title, she will be higher than Concubine Lian.
"How about changing the word Shu to Shu? The noble, virtuous and virtuous fourth concubine, the concubine of Princess Heshuo must be among the fourth concubines!" Mu Lingzhi smiled and looked at King Qi whose complexion had changed drastically. Speaking of.
The noble, virtuous and virtuous four concubines are respected by the noble concubine, and the other three concubines are arranged in order, and the Shu concubine is second only to the noble concubine, ranking second among the four concubines!
In today's harem, only Concubine Lian is respected. If Concubine Shu was promoted to the same level as her, it would still make sense. She has a lot of positions.
From now on, Concubine Lian would have to greet Concubine Shu even in the morning and evening.
Yu Mingzhu's face turned pale, and she couldn't help thinking that if Yu Ruyan's mother concubine had a higher status than her own mother concubine Lian Fei, then her status would be lower than Yu Ruyan's in the future, how could this be possible? !
And when King Qi thought of Concubine Lian's temperament, if he let Concubine Shu push her down, he might have a quarrel with him, and he couldn't help but get overwhelmed, and couldn't make a decision for a while.
Seeing the hesitation on his face, Mu Lingzhi smiled slightly and said, "If Your Majesty finds it difficult, then the son-in-law will not force him, and he can only take mother and concubine to Daliang for the elderly."
King Qi's face became even uglier——
How can my concubine go to other places to retire? If it spread like this, wouldn't it be saying that he was incompetent!
Suppressing the depression in his heart, Qi Wangqiang pulled out a smile and said: "My son-in-law was joking, considering the contribution my son-in-law has made to Daqi this time, this kind of grace is really due. The filial piety of my son-in-law is really a rare!"
After all, without any further hesitation, he proclaimed his will aloud, conferring Concubine Shu the title of concubine Shu, and bestowing him with residence in Chunjing Palace!
Hearing the decree, Yu Mingzhu couldn't believe what happened in front of her eyes. She was looking for an opportunity to let her father marry her to Mu Lingzhi tonight. As a result, she made a big embarrassment in front of everyone, and even made her Mu Lingzhi seized the opportunity to ask for such a big gift for that bitch Shu Concubine. He was promoted directly from the concubine to concubine, and was rewarded with the title, and climbed directly to the head of her concubine mother...
As soon as her eyes turned, she quickly got up, poured wine for King Qi with an excuse, stepped forward and whispered a few times in his ear, King Qi was slightly taken aback when he heard it, and after a while said bravely: "My dear son-in-law, Apart from the reward you asked for for Concubine Shu, I would like to give you another reward. You see, how about my eldest princess, I decided to give her to be your side concubine, and enter the gate of your palace with the fifth princess. "
As soon as King Qi finished speaking, Yu Mingzhu had no choice but to kneel down shyly to thank her, without even giving Mu Lingzhi a chance to refute.
Seeing this, Brother An almost exploded with anger, I have never seen anyone more shameless than Yu Mingzhu!
Mu Lingzhi's eyes turned cold, and he stood up coldly and came to the center of the hall. Everyone thought he was going to thank King Qi. After all, the eldest princess Yu Mingzhu is a rare beauty in the world!How many men are not greedy for beauty? !
Yu Mingzhu lay on the ground and Xie En hadn't gotten up yet, seeing the silvery white clothes stop beside her, she was so excited and joyful that she almost fainted, her heart was ecstatic, but on the surface she lowered her head and suppressed the joy in her eyes, pretending to be A shy and timid look.
Mu Lingzhi walked in front of her, and suddenly squatted down and took a deep breath on Yu Mingzhu, "Well, the eldest princess smells so good. I don't know if the fragrance is from the fragrance, or is it the princess's body's own fragrance?"
In fact, the scent on Yu Mingzhu's body is just to leave an impression on Mu Ling's heart tonight. She spent all her time and effort, smoked it with precious spices and flower scents day and night, but in order to show her I am different from others, so I said against my will: "This incense was brought out by my concubine from her mother's womb, Your Highness—do you still like it?"
Before officially entering the door, she has already claimed to be a concubine in front of Mu Lingzhi, and she is not afraid of her lies being exposed, because as long as the spice on her body is infected, it will last ten days and a half months. It dissipates, so even if there is still some on your body after bathing, you are not afraid of being discovered by Mu Lingzhi.
Mu Lingzhi's eyes turned cold, and he said coldly: "Princess misunderstood, I don't like the fragrance on your body, I even hate it, and my body will be allergic and uncomfortable—" After finishing speaking, he rolled up his sleeves to show everyone, just He saw a red rash on the side of his arm.
But before he could take a closer look, he put down his sleeves and said to the ugly King Qi, "Your Majesty also saw that the Eldest Princess has a strange fragrance on her body, but this fragrance is exactly what this palace body rejects. The princess just fell on Bengong's body." In a short while, my body was covered with rashes, so it is absolutely impossible to share the same bed, nor can I live together. Therefore, I can't bear King Qi's good intentions. Please take it back, don't waste a long time. The princess is a living widow!"
Annoyed, Mu Lingzhi no longer calls himself 'son-in-law' in front of King Qi!
"Pu Chi!" Seeing this, Brother An couldn't help it anymore, and laughed quietly!
Because she knew that the red rash on Mu Lingzhi's body was not an allergy, but prickly heat from yesterday's hot weather.
After Mu Lingzhi said this sentence, regardless of King Qi's agreement or not, he saluted and said goodbye: "The wine tonight is delicious, thank you for your hospitality, I promise my family Yan Yanxu must return to the palace before the end of the hour, so I will take my leave first gone."
After finishing speaking, he threw away the foolish people in the hall and left without looking back.
As soon as he left, the other generals also retreated one by one in embarrassment, and within a moment, the entire Zihua Palace fell silent.
Yu Mingzhu knelt there alone, she couldn't believe that even though her father gave her a marriage, she still couldn't marry him, the hatred and unwillingness in her heart were overwhelming——
Her eyes turned cold, she gritted her teeth and got up, and chased after Mu Lingzhi again...
(End of this chapter)
Concubine Shu, who has always been timid and cowardly, never expected that Mu Lingzhi would come to her remote erotic palace to meet her in person, and she was so startled that she was restless. , even more frightened!
On the one hand, she was happy that her daughter had gone through hardships, and married the most outstanding man in the world by accident. She was very happy, but on the other hand, she was worried about Mu Lingzhi's sudden visit, and she just held Yu Ruyan's hand at a loss.
Mu Lingzhi invited her to sit down in the upper seat, and solemnly knelt down to salute her, saying: "Young son-in-law is negligent, he has been with Yanyan for so long before he came to pay his respects to mother and concubine, and it was too hasty to come here this time. , and did not prepare a generous gift, please forgive me, concubine mother!"
According to the rules of the palace, even if she is Yu Ruyan's biological mother with a background like Shu Concubine, outsiders will not really regard her as the princess' mother concubine. What's more, Mu Lingzhi's background is so respected that even King Qi I can't afford such a big gift from him, so his move is really surprising.
Concubine Shu was shocked, and was so frightened that she wanted to kneel down to pay respects to Mu Lingzhi, but Yu Ruyan held her back and said softly: "Concubine Mu, this is His Highness's wish, you can take it at ease. There are no outsiders here ,Do not worry."
After hearing Yu Ruyan's words, Concubine Shu calmed down, and hurriedly stepped forward to help him up, and said in a trembling voice: "Your Highness, I'm so humble!"
Seeing Concubine Shu's uneasy expression, Mu Lingzhi said seriously: "Concubine Mother, my son-in-law is still looking forward to your remorse and reprimand!"
After all, he knelt down again very seriously.
Seeing his serious look, Concubine Shu had tears in her eyes, pulled him up and said with heartache: "Because of me, Yan'er has suffered a lot since she was a child, and I only hope that after she marries you, you will be fine." Stay by her side for a long time, treat her well! Don't ask His Highness to spoil her alone, as long as... as long as she doesn't suffer too much grievance."
Mu Lingzhi nodded and smiled, and said respectfully: "My son-in-law, remember, I will only love her in this life, and I will definitely treat her well."
After hearing what he said, Concubine Shu was completely relieved, let go of the anxiety in her heart, and happily left them to have lunch together, and Mu Lingzhi agreed without hesitation.
A meal in harmony!
As soon as the bowl was put down, the maid of Chunlan Palace arrived at the door, handed Concubine Shu a post and obediently withdrew.
Yu Ruyan was suspicious in her heart, took a look at the post, it was Concubine Lian hosting a banquet at Chunlan Palace tonight, inviting the female family members of the harem to attend, and Concubine Shu was also invited!
Why did Chunlan Palace hold a banquet for no reason?
Yu Ruyan's eyes turned cold, and she said coldly: "Mother Concubine, this Concubine Lian must have no good intentions, you just shrug off your discomfort and don't go."
Concubine Shu was very careful and said: "Concubine Lian personally posted the post, and all the female family members in the palace will go. If I don't go, she will say that I was spoiled by your glory and gave her a reason for no reason. , so, don’t go!”
Yu Ruyan also understood the meaning of this, so she ordered: "After you go, you should come back immediately, don't stay too long, and don't pay attention to what they say."
Concubine Shu nodded seriously, "I remember it for my mother."
After returning from the Yaochun Palace, those people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs were still carrying water for the Jinying Palace to relieve the summer heat, and they were all pale with exhaustion.
If you think about it, on this hot day, when water is splashed on the ground, it will evaporate within half an hour, especially when the sun is the most poisonous at noon. The water in the water has been evaporated by the heat, so there is nothing to do except to carry water continuously.
The head of the Ministry of Internal Affairs couldn't sit still anymore, not only called all the people from the Ministry of Internal Affairs to help carry water, but also personally delivered the ice cubes from the summer heat to the Hibiscus Palace, waiting in the palace with sweat profusely Mu Lingzhi and Yu Ruyan came back.
However, after a day of tossing by the Ministry of Internal Affairs, the Hibiscus Cherry Palace was indeed much cooler, water was poured on the roof, and artificial rain began to fall. When Mu Lingzhi entered, he nodded in satisfaction.
The general manager looked at this irresistible big Buddha and smiled respectfully, "Your Highness, these slaves have offended His Highness because of their inappropriate handling. This old slave will definitely punish them when he returns home. Your Highness, please extinguish your anger."
Mu Lingzhi looked at the trembling chief in front of him with his hands behind his back, and said: "My palace never plays cards according to the rules when marching and fighting, and it's the same in being a human being, and it's very protective. If you dare to neglect the fifth princess or the concubine Shu in the future , it’s not as simple as picking water for half a day.”
The people in the Ministry of Internal Affairs could finally retreat, one by one fighting each other, leaving the Hibiscus Cherry Palace as if fleeing, never daring to underestimate this little-known fifth princess.
The hall cooled down, Mu Lingzhi went to bed for a nap, Yu Ruyan looked at the invitation card handed over by Brother An, she knew it was from Chunlan Palace without looking at it, she didn't even bother to look at it, and replied: "I must I won't go, don't bother me."
Thinking that Wu Zhaoyi's month is approaching, Yu Ruyan is going to visit her in Chunwu Palace, but before she leaves, Wu Zhaoyi has already taken the initiative to find her.
Seeing her coming with a big belly, Yu Ruyan hurriedly welcomed her into the side hall and sat down. Looking at the slightly panicked expression on her face, she asked with concern: "I was going to visit my empress, but I didn't expect her to be inconvenient. Here you go, what's the rush, Madam?"
If there was no urgent matter, would Wu Zhaoyi come to her with a big belly in the midday heat?
Seeing Yu Ruyan's affection for her, Wu Zhaoyi let go of half of the worries in her heart, and couldn't help but anxiously took Yu Ruyan's hand and said earnestly: "Princess, it's really great for you to return to the palace this time, you are my savior .Please also ask the princess to help me with our past friendship."
Yu Ruyan looked at her bulging belly, and asked doubtfully, "What's wrong with your mother? Your mother's life-saving grace in the past, Ruyan never dared to forget, if I could help, I would definitely help her. "
After hearing her words, Wu Zhaoyi was completely relieved, and expressed all the worries in her heart.
It turned out that a few days ago, Qi Wangxie had a dream when he was in Chunwu Palace. He dreamed that a green dragon was circling and flying around a fig tree. , It is really a rare good dream.
The first time King Qi woke up, he found the supervisor of Qin Tianjian to help him interpret the dream. The supervisor listened and said, this is an extremely rare fetal dream. The fig is a symbol of the princess.
When King Qi heard this, he was overjoyed.
Now only Wu Zhaoyi is pregnant in the harem, and it is a rare twin, which is very consistent with King Qi's dream. Therefore, according to the supervisor, everyone said that Wu Zhaoyi's pregnancy must be a rare twin. Twins.
As soon as the news came out, not only the king of Qi was overjoyed, but even the queen mother of Huayang Palace was alarmed. The queen mother was also so happy that she sent a white jade Guanyin statue that had been enshrined in the Buddhist hall to Chunwu Palace for Wu Zhaoyi's peace. In addition to praying for the child in Wu Zhaoyi's womb, she chanted scriptures and chanted Buddha every day.
King Qi originally wanted to elevate Wu Zhaoyi's position immediately, but the queen mother was afraid that too much blessing would be given to her at once, and would surprise the prince in her belly, so she suppressed it, but promised that if Wu Zhaoyi could really give birth this time, A twin of a dragon and a phoenix, she must be promoted to the position of imperial concubine!
As soon as the queen mother said this, there was a commotion in the palace.
Now the highest status in this harem is Concubine Lian. If Wu Zhaoyi gave birth to a child and became a noble concubine, her son would also be the only prince in this palace, and he would definitely be a prince.If she becomes the mother of the prince, Wu Zhaoyi must be the queen who has been vacant for a long time.
However, Concubine Lian, who had been coveting the successor and was bound to win it, would give up so easily. Therefore, Wu Zhaoyi, who was obviously the most eye-catching in the palace, was actually pushed to the forefront.
"...I'm going to give birth soon. Logically speaking, Concubine Lian would definitely not want to see my child be born, so I have been careful and careful. But I didn't expect that not only did the poisonous woman not have a plan this time. She came to poison me, but she carefully took care of Chunwu Palace, but the more she behaved like this, the more uneasy and frightened I felt."
"Later, I bought a little maid from Chunlan Palace and asked her to quietly help me inquire about the movement of Chunlan Palace. Unexpectedly, I asked her to find out that Concubine Lian was quietly preparing for the palace in her palace. She was wearing baby clothes and other baby things, but she didn't give those clothes to me, but kept it for herself..."
"Chunlan Palace didn't have a baby born in person, so why prepare the child's utensils, so, I thought, she must, must be thinking-killing the chicken to get the egg!"
Wu Zhaoyi was originally a very smart woman, so after careful consideration, she immediately thought of Concubine Lian's final conspiracy, and suddenly a chill spread from her feet to her head, and her whole body became cold!
"—Killing the chicken to get the eggs?!" Yu Ruyan's heart was shocked, she was as smart as she suddenly thought of the incident of An Lirong laying yellow heart grass on Gu Qing'er before, and her heart suddenly became clear——
Unexpectedly, Concubine Lian and An Lirong had the same thoughts.
"Yes, the reason why she never did anything to me, instead she took care of Chunwu Palace uncharacteristically, except for wanting me to give birth to a child smoothly, and then killing me and taking my emperor's son as her son, there is no other possibility .”
When Wu Zhaoyi thought of Concubine Lian's poisonous plan, she was so angry that she wanted to vomit blood, and when she thought of the child she had worked so hard to conceive, being missed by others before it was born, she hated to the extreme.
Therefore, she will definitely not sit still, but she also knows that a woman's childbirth is the life of the lamp, just like that weak candle, if one is not careful, it will be extinguished by the wind, it is really a crisis of life, What's more, she is still pregnant with twins, and the difficulty of childbirth is even more dangerous than normal childbirth. If she is allowed to tamper with during childbirth, she will definitely die!
"So I came to beg the princess today, please see that I came forward to help you that day, you must help me this time, and help me overcome the difficulties during childbirth." Wu Zhaoyi almost knelt down to Yu Ruyan, feeling very sad in a hurry!
"What do you want me to do?" Yu Ruyan also knew the urgency of the situation, so she couldn't help frowning and asked solemnly.
"My confinement physician has calculated for me that it will be around the end of this month. I hope that the princess will help me by my bedside and watch over me when I give birth..."
"...My natal family cannot enter the palace to accompany me. Now in this palace, I only trust the princess, and only the princess has the ability to protect me now."
Wu Zhaoyi held Yu Ruyan's hand tightly, as if grasping at the last straw, steadfastly holding onto it.
What she said was true, now in this palace, there will be no one other than Yu Ruyan who dares to confront Concubine Lian.
This is because she is surrounded by Mu Lingzhi, who is extremely protective but kind to Da Qi. Even King Qi wants to give him face and is afraid of him. Therefore, Concubine Lian dare not treat Yu Ru now. How about Yan, Wu Zhaoyi came to find her but he was right.
Hearing Wu Zhaoyi's words, Yu Ruyan couldn't help thinking of Gu Qing'er's death in her mind, thinking of her dead body and two lives, if Concubine Lian really wanted to kill her during her delivery as Wu Zhaoyi guessed, I'm afraid At that time, there will be three dead bodies.
Furthermore, Yu Ruyan thought that Da Qi had never had a prince, and no one would inherit his father's great power in the future. If the child in Wu Zhaoyi's belly really had a boy, it would solve Da Qi's dilemma.
Therefore, regardless of the considerations, Yu Ruyan must help with this favor.
She solemnly nodded to Wu Zhaoyi and said: "My mother saved my life that day, and also helped me get rid of that hateful person Yiyun, and returned my innocence. I will definitely return this kindness to my mother."
Hearing her promise, Wu Zhaoyi's hanging heart finally fell to the ground, and she couldn't help touching her chest and said, "With the words of the princess, I can finally sleep with peace of mind. But right now, there is one thing I need the princess to help with."
Yu Ruyan asked suspiciously, "What's the matter?"
Wu Zhaoyi said helplessly: "Presumably the princess has also received the banquet post from Chunlan Palace tonight. She handed it to me in front of the emperor. How can I not accept it? If I accept it, how can I not go. I can't even refuse." But there is no way of knowing whether tonight's banquet will be bad or good, and I want to ask the princess to go with me and stay by my side, so that I can rest assured."
Yu Ruyan had already made up her mind not to go, but now she had to go, she nodded her head in agreement.
Looking at Wu Zhaoyi in front of her, Yu Ruyan suddenly thought of something, and said to Wu Zhaoyi with a smile: "Your Majesty, Ruyan also asks your Majesty for something!"
Wu Zhaoyi's troubles and fears that plagued her heart disappeared, and she was in a good mood. She couldn't help but smiled happily and said, "Princess, you are welcome. If you have something to say between us, you can just speak directly, and you don't need to be detained."
"Your Majesty is a straightforward person, so I'll just say it straight."
Yu Ruyan said seriously: "Your Majesty knows that I will not be able to stay in Daqi for a long time, and I will marry Daliang. My mother and concubine...she has a cowardly personality and has no one to rely on. Assuming a high position, I hope that my mother will take care of the love between you and me, and protect my mother and concubine after I leave."
"It's inevitable, princess, don't worry." Wu Zhaoyi agreed without even thinking about it.
It was night, King Qi and Concubine Lian held banquets in the front and back palaces respectively. King Qi entertained the generals who fought this time, and Mu Lingzhi must be indispensable.But Yu Ruyan had to go to Concubine Lian's banquet because she wanted to accompany Wu Zhaoyi.
During the banquet, Yu Ruyan had been carefully guarding Wu Zhaoyi and Concubine Shu's side, guarding against any monsters from Concubine Lian. However, the banquet at Chunlan Palace today was normal, but it was to celebrate Da Qi's victory. Concubine Lian As the lord of the first palace, the female relatives gathered in the harem to eat and drink together, just happy!
However, the more this was the case, the more disturbed Yu Ruyan felt. She couldn't believe that Concubine Lian put so much thought into setting up a banquet in her palace just to get together with everyone.
Wu Zhaoyi was very worried that Concubine Lian would frame her at the banquet before, and Concubine Shu was also trembling because of the ice cube, thinking that Concubine Lian would find an opportunity to embarrass herself, but Concubine Lian is very docile today, not only does she not say a word Wu Zhaoyi was polite to Wu Zhaoyi about bringing up ice cubes, but in Yu Ruyan's eyes, she felt that it was too abnormal.
She watched the people in Chunlan Palace vigilantly, only then realized that there seemed to be one missing person in Chunlan Palace tonight!
After thinking about it, she quickly told An Ge: "Go and have a look at the banquet in front."
Brother An got her order, and hurriedly went to the place where the banquet was held in the Zihua Palace in front of him, and quietly followed the servants in to have a look, he couldn't help being shocked!
In front of King Qi and everyone, Yu Mingzhu actually sat in Mu Lingzhi's arms! !
Brother An didn't know what happened before he came, but he saw the singing girls kneeling on the ground in the middle of the hall, shaking with fright, and one of them knelt directly in front of King Qi and Mu Lingzhi. Hoo 'damn! "
Brother An saw that Yu Mingzhu was lying shyly in Mu Lingzhi's arms in tulle, and couldn't help but get red-eyed——
It turned out that she was not in her own Chunlan Palace, but came to the banquet ahead to seduce Mu Lingzhi!
A little maid next to her recognized Brother An and knew that she was the girl next to the fifth princess, so she hurriedly told her the whole story in a low voice.
It turned out that when the front hall was full of wine just now, the king of Qi invited singing and dancing to add to the fun. What everyone didn't expect was that the dancer who led the dance was actually the eldest princess Yu Mingzhu.
She came here today prepared, wrapped in tulle, with gorgeous make-up, not only is she dressed in a seductive and sexy outfit, but also her dancing posture is charming and affectionate. Her big glazed eyes don't care about the eyes of everyone, she always throws emotions at Mu Lingzhi, and then dances Jumping and dancing, for some reason, another dancer tripped her feet, and just happened to fall into Mu Lingzhi's arms.
The little palace lady was also a real person, and she couldn't help but sighed in a low voice: "Oh, sister An, I have seen shameless people before, and I have never seen such shameless people. After a while, he deliberately leaned on His Highness and refused to get up for a moment, tsk, His Highness didn't even change his posture, he just focused on drinking and didn't even look at her!"
When Brother An heard this, he looked up. Sure enough, Mu Lingzhi kept drinking, neither looking at her nor speaking.But Yu Mingzhu wrapped around him like a soft and boneless beautiful snake, closing her eyes tightly as if frightened, enjoying the beauty of this moment hypnotically.
The faint ambergris on Mu Lingzhi's body was mixed with the unique masculinity of a man, which made Yu Mingzhu intoxicated. She quietly raised the corners of her eyes to look at him, only to feel that seeing him at a close distance was even more handsome, which made her tremble with joy. .
In the main hall, everyone watched this dramatic scene eagerly, except for the dancing girl who knelt in front of her and called 'forgive me', there was no other voice in the main hall.
King Qi sat tall and looked at his daughter who had successfully rolled into Mu Lingzhi's arms. Embarrassment flashed in his eyes, but he pretended not to care.
He thought that Yu Mingzhu had successfully attracted Mu Lingzhi's attention this time, and they hugged each other in public. After this time, it might be difficult for Mu Lingzhi to refuse the marriage offer.
However, just as King Qi was about to offer a marriage offer, Mu Lingzhi, who had always regarded the person hanging on his body as air, slowly put down the wine glass in his hand and rushed to speak in front of King Qi.
"What's the matter with the eldest princess? Are you throwing yourself into your arms? Oh, but I remember, aren't you still helping your unmarried husband-in-law in hemp and filial piety? Why did you come to me in such a suit!?"
His tone was lukewarm, as if he was making a joke, but without any emotion.
After finishing speaking, before everyone could recover from his harsh words, he stretched out his hand and threw the jade pearl, which was also shaken by his words, to the ground in the middle of the hall with a blunt bang.
Including King Qi, everyone was stunned by Mu Lingzhi's sudden actions!
The stunned Yu Mingzhu couldn't believe that she was thrown in front of everyone in such a disgusted way, and she was still in such a mess!
She stared dumbfounded at the indifferent Mu Lingzhi, and even forgot to get up——
After all, she is a noble eldest princess, how could he treat him like this, in front of his father and so many generals! ?
This makes her how to behave in the future! !
The dancer beside her quickly helped her up, she was trembling with anger, but she tried her best to hold back the anger in her heart, with tears in her eyes, she fell powerlessly to the ground, and said tremblingly: "Your Highness, I was careless just now. , unexpectedly... fell on His Highness, please forgive me!"
After finishing speaking, he turned around and cried to King Qi: "Father, my daughter just wanted to perform a dance to cheer up our Daqi warriors, but I didn't expect... I didn't expect... Now my daughter has a relationship with His Highness for no reason... ...My daughter has no face to live in the world!" After finishing speaking, she covered her face and began to cry.
As soon as these words came out, everyone was boiling!
It stands to reason that this incident was an accident, but under the watchful eyes of everyone, the princess rolled into His Highness's arms covered in a tulle, and the two of them were indeed close by skin. If the Third Highness didn't marry her, she would be innocent. It's really hard for her to marry again.
King Qi frowned in embarrassment, sighed and said helplessly: "My dear son-in-law, you have made great achievements in this battle for my great Qi, and I have always felt guilty for not thanking my dear son-in-law well." , now, it is better to follow the example of the ancients, E Huang Nv Ying, and the princess..."
"If your majesty really wants to thank my son-in-law, you are welcome, but there is a kindness that I would like to ask your majesty for permission!"
Mu Lingzhi unceremoniously interrupted King Qi's words, and also completely interrupted the hope in Yu Mingzhu's heart.
King Qi was stunned for a moment, but he didn't expect him to ask for it, so he couldn't help but asked embarrassingly: "I don't know what kindness my son-in-law wants?"
Mu Lingzhi smiled slowly, stood up and said: "Yan Yangui is Princess Heshuo, but her mother and concubine are just a small concubine, this-seems a bit... Oh, how about it, Your Majesty might as well treat me as a concubine." How about rewarding concubine Shu's mother and concubine for his kindness, how about my son-in-law begging for a reward from His Highness on behalf of mother and concubine?"
As soon as these words came out, King Qi was stunned on the spot——
His mother and concubine have all called out, at least he has to give Concubine Shu a position higher than that of Concubine Shu!
Although it's a bit too much to be promoted from a court lady to concubine, but compared to the thousands of miles of land Mu Lingzhi guarded for Da Qi, what is a concubine?
It's just that King Qi didn't expect that Mu Lingzhi would be so respectful and polite to that woman who was born as a court lady.
Thinking of this, King Qi smiled heartily and said: "My son-in-law and I would like to go together. I heard that the fifth princess will take care of the wounded in person in the barracks. Everyone praises her. Therefore, I am preparing to reward Shu concubine."
After all, just as he was about to speak the edict, Mu Lingzhi spoke again.
"Your Majesty, since the concubine's reward includes the concubine's reward, the son-in-law has to ask for another title for the concubine."
Hearing this, everyone in the audience was stunned.
You know, the rules of the harem are the same as concubines, and there is a difference between those with a title and those without a title.
Now the concubine in the harem does not have a title, if Concubine Shu has a title, she will be higher than Concubine Lian.
"How about changing the word Shu to Shu? The noble, virtuous and virtuous fourth concubine, the concubine of Princess Heshuo must be among the fourth concubines!" Mu Lingzhi smiled and looked at King Qi whose complexion had changed drastically. Speaking of.
The noble, virtuous and virtuous four concubines are respected by the noble concubine, and the other three concubines are arranged in order, and the Shu concubine is second only to the noble concubine, ranking second among the four concubines!
In today's harem, only Concubine Lian is respected. If Concubine Shu was promoted to the same level as her, it would still make sense. She has a lot of positions.
From now on, Concubine Lian would have to greet Concubine Shu even in the morning and evening.
Yu Mingzhu's face turned pale, and she couldn't help thinking that if Yu Ruyan's mother concubine had a higher status than her own mother concubine Lian Fei, then her status would be lower than Yu Ruyan's in the future, how could this be possible? !
And when King Qi thought of Concubine Lian's temperament, if he let Concubine Shu push her down, he might have a quarrel with him, and he couldn't help but get overwhelmed, and couldn't make a decision for a while.
Seeing the hesitation on his face, Mu Lingzhi smiled slightly and said, "If Your Majesty finds it difficult, then the son-in-law will not force him, and he can only take mother and concubine to Daliang for the elderly."
King Qi's face became even uglier——
How can my concubine go to other places to retire? If it spread like this, wouldn't it be saying that he was incompetent!
Suppressing the depression in his heart, Qi Wangqiang pulled out a smile and said: "My son-in-law was joking, considering the contribution my son-in-law has made to Daqi this time, this kind of grace is really due. The filial piety of my son-in-law is really a rare!"
After all, without any further hesitation, he proclaimed his will aloud, conferring Concubine Shu the title of concubine Shu, and bestowing him with residence in Chunjing Palace!
Hearing the decree, Yu Mingzhu couldn't believe what happened in front of her eyes. She was looking for an opportunity to let her father marry her to Mu Lingzhi tonight. As a result, she made a big embarrassment in front of everyone, and even made her Mu Lingzhi seized the opportunity to ask for such a big gift for that bitch Shu Concubine. He was promoted directly from the concubine to concubine, and was rewarded with the title, and climbed directly to the head of her concubine mother...
As soon as her eyes turned, she quickly got up, poured wine for King Qi with an excuse, stepped forward and whispered a few times in his ear, King Qi was slightly taken aback when he heard it, and after a while said bravely: "My dear son-in-law, Apart from the reward you asked for for Concubine Shu, I would like to give you another reward. You see, how about my eldest princess, I decided to give her to be your side concubine, and enter the gate of your palace with the fifth princess. "
As soon as King Qi finished speaking, Yu Mingzhu had no choice but to kneel down shyly to thank her, without even giving Mu Lingzhi a chance to refute.
Seeing this, Brother An almost exploded with anger, I have never seen anyone more shameless than Yu Mingzhu!
Mu Lingzhi's eyes turned cold, and he stood up coldly and came to the center of the hall. Everyone thought he was going to thank King Qi. After all, the eldest princess Yu Mingzhu is a rare beauty in the world!How many men are not greedy for beauty? !
Yu Mingzhu lay on the ground and Xie En hadn't gotten up yet, seeing the silvery white clothes stop beside her, she was so excited and joyful that she almost fainted, her heart was ecstatic, but on the surface she lowered her head and suppressed the joy in her eyes, pretending to be A shy and timid look.
Mu Lingzhi walked in front of her, and suddenly squatted down and took a deep breath on Yu Mingzhu, "Well, the eldest princess smells so good. I don't know if the fragrance is from the fragrance, or is it the princess's body's own fragrance?"
In fact, the scent on Yu Mingzhu's body is just to leave an impression on Mu Ling's heart tonight. She spent all her time and effort, smoked it with precious spices and flower scents day and night, but in order to show her I am different from others, so I said against my will: "This incense was brought out by my concubine from her mother's womb, Your Highness—do you still like it?"
Before officially entering the door, she has already claimed to be a concubine in front of Mu Lingzhi, and she is not afraid of her lies being exposed, because as long as the spice on her body is infected, it will last ten days and a half months. It dissipates, so even if there is still some on your body after bathing, you are not afraid of being discovered by Mu Lingzhi.
Mu Lingzhi's eyes turned cold, and he said coldly: "Princess misunderstood, I don't like the fragrance on your body, I even hate it, and my body will be allergic and uncomfortable—" After finishing speaking, he rolled up his sleeves to show everyone, just He saw a red rash on the side of his arm.
But before he could take a closer look, he put down his sleeves and said to the ugly King Qi, "Your Majesty also saw that the Eldest Princess has a strange fragrance on her body, but this fragrance is exactly what this palace body rejects. The princess just fell on Bengong's body." In a short while, my body was covered with rashes, so it is absolutely impossible to share the same bed, nor can I live together. Therefore, I can't bear King Qi's good intentions. Please take it back, don't waste a long time. The princess is a living widow!"
Annoyed, Mu Lingzhi no longer calls himself 'son-in-law' in front of King Qi!
"Pu Chi!" Seeing this, Brother An couldn't help it anymore, and laughed quietly!
Because she knew that the red rash on Mu Lingzhi's body was not an allergy, but prickly heat from yesterday's hot weather.
After Mu Lingzhi said this sentence, regardless of King Qi's agreement or not, he saluted and said goodbye: "The wine tonight is delicious, thank you for your hospitality, I promise my family Yan Yanxu must return to the palace before the end of the hour, so I will take my leave first gone."
After finishing speaking, he threw away the foolish people in the hall and left without looking back.
As soon as he left, the other generals also retreated one by one in embarrassment, and within a moment, the entire Zihua Palace fell silent.
Yu Mingzhu knelt there alone, she couldn't believe that even though her father gave her a marriage, she still couldn't marry him, the hatred and unwillingness in her heart were overwhelming——
Her eyes turned cold, she gritted her teeth and got up, and chased after Mu Lingzhi again...
