Chapter 234 Refugees
"How is your princess?"

Liu Qingning was wearing light green clothes embroidered with white daffodils, her hair was combed neatly, but she only wore a few silver or white jade hairpins, which looked plain and unusual.

Huan'er led Liu Qingning into the house, and said with a smile: "Please ask, our concubine is already much better, the imperial doctor prescribed medicine, I drank it yesterday, and slept very peacefully at night."

Qing Ning nodded: "I'm relieved, I was really scared when I heard the letter yesterday, so why not..."

She deeply felt that it was inappropriate to continue, so she sighed and asked Huan'er to walk faster.

After entering the room, Qingning saw Yuechan was half leaning on the couch, holding a book and reading. The south window was opened, and a gust of wind blew in. She could only smell the fragrance of flowers, and saw the green gauze fluttering by the window, which was beautiful Extremely.

Qing Ning smiled: "You are one who enjoys it, but I am sorry that I miss you and come here in a hurry, but you don't like to talk to me."

It was only then that Yuechan knew that Qingning had entered the door, and laughed and scolded Huan'er: "Little hooves, my sister didn't know to let me know when she came in."

Huan'er hurriedly squatted down to salute: "It's because I don't speak, it's Miss Biao who doesn't let me speak."

Yuechan glared at Qingning, and waved to her: "Hurry up and sit down, Miss Qingning, I'm sorry for working hard, Huan'er, why don't you hurry up and serve tea and snacks to Miss Biao."

Huan'er went down with a smile, Qingning sat on a stool beside her, took Yuechan's hand and looked around, and then breathed a sigh of relief: "It's fine that you have nothing to do, I'll just say you, I know that Concubine Huang Gui is not easy to mess with Fortunately, she only punished you to stand for half a day, if you were more ruthless and punished you to kneel, your knees would be lost."

Yuechan smiled lightly, and after listening to Qingning finished speaking, Fang said: "I know you care about me, and I appreciate your love, but I should say less about this in the future. After all, she is an elder. If I say something bad, I will let you go." It's a resentment."

Qingning's eyes showed a bit of distress, and the two were relatively silent. After a while, Yuechan smiled and said, "I only talk about me, I haven't asked you yet, but I'm doing well now. I see that young master Jiang is also kind to you, your mother-in-law and great-grandmother are both good-natured, you must have a good life."

After saying this, Qing Ning turned her head, Yuechan saw that she had shed a few tears, and became more and more strange: "What's going on?"

Qing Ning was stunned for a while, and then whispered: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. You also know that Jiang Tong married into the Ning family. What kind of family is the Ning family? That is Wang Yizhi of Guangning, a military family. As soon as Jiang Tong got married, she followed her to the Northwest, and when she went there, someone sent a letter saying that she was pregnant."

Yuechan laughed: "This is a good thing, I never thought that girl would become a mother at such a young age."

"It's a good thing, but I made it difficult." Qing Ning said slightly bitterly: "My uncle is still Jiang Tong's brother, and my younger sister is pregnant, but there is no news from me. My mother-in-law is not in a hurry. It's just that the princess is hard to explain, the princess is getting older, she wants to hug her great-grandson and wants to go crazy, she keeps urging her, and even said she wants to take a concubine for the uncle, so she sent a housemate there yesterday..."

As she spoke, Qing Ning's eyes turned red: "Master treats me wholeheartedly, but he didn't touch that girl, but I haven't heard anything about my body. If it goes on for a long time, I'm afraid you won't be able to stand it."

Qingning's words aroused Yuechan's emotions, and she was worried for a while, and she was also glad that Gao Zixuan and Emperor Tianchen hadn't forced her to have a child, nor...

Thinking about it again, Yuechan wanted to laugh, and Qingning was worried, it was because Jiang Mo didn't talk about concubines, she didn't even have a concubine, and she was never pregnant, if she always stopped her, she would look too It's too stingy, but Gao Zixuan is different, there are many beauties in the Nine Princes' Mansion, even if there is no child, who can say anything, did he stop Gao Zixuan from taking a concubine?

After thinking for a while, Yuechanfang sighed: "Don't worry about it, the matter of the heirs is determined by God, and they will come when they should come."

While speaking, she was slightly bitter again: "Just look at me, you can't stand it as a housewife. There are so many beauties in our Ninth Prince's Mansion, and I still come here."

Only then did Qingning think of Yuechan's suffering, thinking that her family only wanted to take concubines, so she complained to Yuechan, and there were so many beautiful concubines here in Yuechan, who would she confide in, so she felt a little uncomfortable. I'm sorry Yuechan.

Yuechan smiled and patted Qingning's hand: "Don't think about it too much, I just tell you..."

She sat upright, looked around the room, and let all the girls go out, leaving only her and Qing Ning to talk quietly.

Yuechan thought for a while, and decided to tell Qing Ning about the prince, so that Qing Ning would be on guard, and in the future, she would keep Qing Ning away from anyone related to the prince or Huang Yifang.

She slowly told what she heard yesterday and her conjecture. After hearing this, Qing Ning felt her face turn pale. After a while, she spat angrily: "He is a crown prince, a dignified prince, what is he doing?" I don’t have a woman like this, and she still thinks about me as a woman. I really have my heart eaten by a donkey. No matter what I say, she is the grandson-in-law of Princess Jingyi, and she is also related to him. How could he..."

After scolding the crown prince, Qingning scolded Huang Yifang again: "It's not good to look at her, otherwise why would I not deal with you in Dali? That day I saw the Ninth Prince beat her with a whip, and I felt sorry for her for a while , Now it seems that there is no need for it, she is a bitch, she deserves to be beaten to death, if the Ninth Prince beats her again in the future, I am afraid I will applaud from the sidelines."

Yuechan was dumbfounded when she heard that, she never expected that such an elegant woman like Qingning could say such words, so she was quite angry.

As she spoke, Qingning's eyes turned red again, and she stretched out her arms to hug Yuechan: "Good sister, it's hard for you to remember me, so you listened to me so disregarding the danger, yesterday's body was so bad, remember to ask someone to give it to you. I sent the letter, I only keep your kindness in my heart, and I will repay you in the future."

Yuechan shook her head: "My sisters, what did you say to repay and not repay, besides, I didn't do anything, I just told you the truth."

For another moment, Yuechan gritted her teeth: "There is no good person in the Five Princes' Mansion. If I get the chance, I have to clean them up one by one."

Qing Ning was stunned, and sighed for a long time: "Take it easy, if they can survive, they will have a chance after all if they lose."

Yuechan was talking to Qingning here, but she heard Huan'er whispering outside: "Princess, the third concubine sent someone to tell the concubine that tomorrow I will go to Hanshan Temple to offer incense, and bless the third prince and the ninth prince to return in good health as soon as possible. , and asked the princess if she wanted to go with her."

Yuechan thought about it, there was nothing to do tomorrow, even if the third concubine invited her, she would go without defense, so she nodded: "You reply, and say I will go."

Huan'er left for a while, Qingning sat there for a while, looking at the sky, it was almost noon, thinking that Princess Jingyi might be going home, she was thinking about her family, so she got up to bid farewell to Yuechan.

Yuechan propped herself up and sent her to the door, and gave some instructions before watching her go away.

After returning to the house, Yuechan was also a little tired and fell into a deep sleep.

After resting for a day, Yuechan got up early in the morning on the second day, changed into plain clothes, tidied up for a while, put on plain jewelry, ate something casually, and went out with plain face.

Her skin is really good, with red in the white, so clean and perfect, her makeup is also very light on weekdays, and the rouge and gouache used are all made by herself, but it does not damage the skin. Generally fresh and beautiful.

After taking the carriage, Yuechan sent someone to drive the carriage to the Three Princes' Mansion to look for the Third Princess.

After arriving at the gate of the Three Princes' Mansion, she saw the Three Princes' Concubine also leaving the door. Yuechan lifted the curtain of the car, and said a few words to the Three Princes' Concubine with a smile through the window, watching the Three Princes get into the carriage and waiting for the carriage of the Three Princes' Mansion. After she got up, she was driven to follow her.

The convoys of the two palaces fell one after the other, and when they left the city for a while, they showed different scenes.

The city was alright, with a peaceful atmosphere, but as soon as we left the city gate and arrived at the outskirts, we saw that the stretches of fields seemed a bit dry, and some of the crops in the farmlands were trampled by someone, and they fell down.

Yuechan was amazed when she saw it, so she sent someone to ask her.

When the guards of the palace returned the news, Yuechan gasped when she heard it, but it turned out that the drought was extremely severe in several places near Chang'an, and some locusts that flew from no one knew where had bitten the crops, and the farmers were fine. Harvest, where can I survive, I had to drag my son and daughter to Chang'an City to beg for a living.

But how easy is it to enter the city? Only a small number of people entered the city, and the rest camped in the suburbs to make a living. The wheat in the wheat field was knocked down by these people either by stealing or trampling on it.

"I don't know how the prince is doing?" After a while, Yuechan asked.

Huang Ying sat beside Yuechan and fanned her, saying repeatedly: "My lord and auspicious people have their own appearance, so they must be good."

Yuechan sighed: "Where did you know that Chang'an City is like this, the outside scene must be worse, I'm afraid that the prince will be tired again and again, and he won't eat well, and his body will be damaged."

Huang Ying was also a little speechless, so she comforted Yuechan in a low voice.

After another trip, she saw the car in front stopped, Yuechan sent someone to ask, it turned out that there were refugees in front who blocked the way of the third concubine.

Knowing that the third concubine is weak and has no opinions, Yuechan was very worried. She put on a hat and veiled to help Huang Ying's men get out of the car, and walked straight to the frame of the third concubine.

When I got to the frame, I saw a lot of ragged refugees blocking the way.

Most of them are women and children, old and weak, some with broken arms and legs, some old ones who cannot walk and are on crutches, and some mothers crying with their children in their arms.

Taking another look, she found that there are really many refugees here, about a hundred or so, Yuechan was amazed, why are there so many?

A thin and skinny woman, the clothes on her body were so torn that they couldn't cover her skin. The clothes on her upper body were torn, revealing half of her breasts. Her trousers were half-short, and her hair was dry. Tangled, his face was also dark, and he was holding an equally thin child in his arms.

Seeing Yuechan, the woman was crying and wanted to rush over. Fortunately, the guards of the palace stopped in front and pulled out a knife, scaring her back.

With a pale face and no sign of sympathy, Yuechan quietly got into the carriage of the third princess.

As soon as she got into the car, she heard the refugees outside crying and begging: "Please do me a favor, please give me a stutter, I really can't survive..."

"I'm giving you a nibble, I don't ask for anything else, just save the child."

Listening to the voice, it seems that the refugees are gathering more and more signs.
