The Chronicle of the Rebirth of the First Daughter

Chapter 249 Li Shi's Pain
"My lord, the gift list is ready."

He Shun reminded Gao Zixuan that it was time to go to the Three Kings Mansion.

Gao Zixuan stretched out his arms, put a pile of official documents aside, stood up and said: "The property that the king has just handled will be handed over to the princess later, so she will know what to expect."

While talking, he rubbed his wrists: "My concubine is too frugal. Although my father likes to be frugal, it is a bit too much. This king is not that incompetent. Could it be that he can't even support his own woman?" .”

He Shun smiled: "What the Lord said is true, but the concubine wanted to come here with good intentions, in order to let the emperor have a good impression of the Lord, but also for fear that the cost of the mansion would be too high, and the follow-up would be ineffective."

Gao Zixuan patted and said softly, "You're a good boy, the cost of this mansion is indeed a bit high."

There are not many masters in the Nine Kings Mansion, but there are not many Hua Yong compared to other mansions.

The main reason is that too much was spent on human relations. The emperor in the palace, the empresses in the main positions, and the princes and clans outside the palace, whenever there is a birthday or wedding or funeral, or a newborn is born, all It is necessary to congratulate him, he has to give gifts several times a month, and Gao Zixuan is a face-saving person, so he can only give more gifts than Beppu, not a little less than Beppu. After a year, the cost of such expenses is There is no bottom.

In addition, Gao Zixuan spends money lazily, as long as he passes on the money, he can hardly save anything.

In this way, Yuechan's management is really tight.

Nothing can be reduced, and she can't let Gao Zixuan spend less money. Gao Zixuan was spoiled and grew up, and whoever was short of flowers in the palace did not short him. Well, the rewards given to him by Emperor Tianchen have always been the thickest, so naturally he will not guard his money.

In this way, although the Nine Princes' Mansion has a lot of properties on the surface, Yuechan still tore down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and got caught blindly for money.

She is not really frugal, she has never been harsh on herself when it comes to food, but she only uses less headgear and the like. Originally, Yuechan doesn't like such cumbersome things, so she is naturally willing to show a frugal appearance. It is for Emperor Tianchen to see.

That means, your son spends too much money, there is no way, your daughter-in-law has to suffer herself.

Another meaning is to let those princes see, and let them see that the Ninth Prince is not a man with ambition and means, so as to teach these people to be at ease.

Gao Zixuan's heart ached when she did this. Seeing that Yuechan couldn't add one or two pieces of jewelry to her house in a month, she really thought that Yuechan had no money, so taking advantage of some time, she made some property and handed it over to Yuechan. It's money for Yuechan's makeup.

He Shun said with a smile: "Master, it's getting late, it's time to go out."

Gao Zixuan walked out with big strides: "You let people see the princess is ready, the king is waiting for her outside."

He Shun lowered his head and smiled, pointing out a little eunuch to report to Yue Chan.

After a while, when Gao Zixuan went out, it happened that Yuechan came with a girl, and the two went out hand in hand, Gao Zixuan didn't ride a horse, and got into the carriage with Yuechan.

At the entrance of the Three Princes' Mansion, Gao Zixuan got out of the carriage neatly, Yuechan heard the commotion outside, and heard someone approaching to say hello, about half an hour later, the curtain of the carriage was raised, Yuechan slowly got out of the carriage, A girl set up a bench, Yuechan helped Gao Zixuan's hand, stepped on the bench and got out of the car gracefully.

Looking up, the Three Princes' Mansion is really lively.

Red lanterns were hung high at the gate, and many red curtains were hung, which added a lot of joy to the usually solemn Three Kings Mansion.

There was also the butler of the palace, dressed in festive clothes, welcoming guests outside, and looking inside, the Third Prince was standing inside the door, with a smile on his usual cold face, chatting with an adult who came to congratulate him.

Gao Zixuan adjusted his clothes before he was about to enter the door, but he saw the third prince had already walked out to welcome him.

Seeing Gao Zixuan and Yuechan, the Third Prince's eyes became warmer: "Ninth Brother, Ninth Brother and Sister, please quickly..."

Gao Zixuan and Yuechan went over to salute, then went in directly.

Gao Zixuan went to the front hall, while Yuechan took the girl into the backyard.

As soon as she entered the second gate here, she saw the Fifth Princess Murong passing by like a gust of wind. Looking at her appearance, those who knew her knew that she was a quick-tempered person, but those who didn't knew that she thought something serious had happened.

Seeing that Huang Yifang followed behind, she was a few steps behind, but her face was covered with frost.

Is this Congratulations, or are you looking for advice?

Yuechan shook her head and smiled wryly, and walked into the second door unhurriedly.

But I saw that the third concubine, Li Shi, was wearing a bright red dress and her head was full of emerald jewels. She was busy and dazed, talking to the female guests who came to congratulate her, and directing the maids to go around.

Yuechan went over to chat and joke a few words, went into the hall and sat down for a while, then sat down under the shed under a big tree in the courtyard.

Because of the hot weather, it was still early at this time, and everyone couldn't bear to sit in the living room, feeling that it was too hot, so Mrs. Li found a cool and ventilated place to build a shed for the guests to rest.

Yuechan entered the shed, and it happened that the seat arranged for her was next to Murong's, the eighth concubine Dongfang's on the other side, and the seventh princess Yu's opposite. However, the Dongfang family is different, relying on the origin of the Dongfang family, their behavior has been rampant, and they have never taken others seriously.

She glanced at Yuechan, curled her lips and said: "People said that Fifth Sister-in-law is a big jealousy jar, blocking Fifth Brother from letting her into the concubine, but now Miss Huang's family has come in, and said that Third Brother has a deep affection for Third Sister-in-law. But looking at it today, the scenery of the Feng family is almost surpassing that of the third sister-in-law."

While talking, he stared at Yuechan: "I just don't know when the ninth brother will welcome the newcomers in, so let's congratulate him."

Before Yuechan could speak, she wiped the corners of her mouth with a handkerchief again: "Ninth brother and sister, don't you follow Fifth Sister-in-Law's example, you will bring your reputation for nothing, and you won't get any benefits. You just don't want to, this prince! , there can be fewer concubines in that concubine room."

Yuechan's right hand under the table was pinching the veil, almost crushing the veil.

Why does this Dongfang clan bite everyone?
After thinking about it again, I understand that the Eighth Prince brought a pair of sisters into the house some time ago. I heard that the two girls are very good-looking, and they are from theatrical troupe. They are used to serving men by looking at people. The eighth prince coaxed the door around. After entering the door, except for going to Dongfang's house on the fifteenth day of the lunar new year, he never went to other houses.

It's no wonder that Dongfang's heart feels bad, but she can't just rely on her bad heart to bite people indiscriminately.

Which family here doesn't have a lot of women, who feels better?
As soon as she said this, Murong laughed, and she pushed Yuechan: "Ninth brother and sister, you heard that eighth brother and sister are trying to defend Jiudi. People have always said that I am powerful. Now Look, this dog that doesn't bark is the one that bites people, and the nine younger brothers and sisters are the really powerful characters, who suppressed the ninth younger brother, and pushed away the side concubine that the father wanted to bestow, so why are you saying that there are only nine younger brothers and sisters alone in this life? If so, I think it’s possible that those concubine’s rooms in your mansion can’t be furnished.”

You are the dog!
Yuechan cursed angrily in her heart, but her face showed a look of surprise: "Sister-in-law, what are you talking about?"

Her eyes were round and round, and she looked puzzled: "How did the prince push the side concubine? Why, I don't know about it. Who did my sister-in-law tell about it? It's better not to talk nonsense about it. Not good, but it will kill people."

While talking, Yuechan covered her mouth with a handkerchief and chuckled lightly: "I haven't congratulated sister-in-law yet. I heard that you have added someone to your house, and they found it by taking a child. Sister-in-law has an extra son for no reason. It’s really gratifying.”

In a word, Murong's face turned dark, but he couldn't say anything, he just sat aside and sulked.

Yuechan looked at Dongfang again, took a leisurely sip of tea, and wiped the corners of her mouth: "Sister-in-law eight, one of the seven out of these is talking too much, sister-in-law eight has always been familiar with the three obediences and four virtues, and she is also familiar with the precepts for women. Presumably you must know."

She looked at the Dongfang family with a smile: "Who said that the fifth sister-in-law has a bad reputation? Come out and let people see why the fifth sister-in-law is not good. She has given so many concubines to the fifth brother. There are also a bunch, how come..."

When Dongfang was about to retort angrily, Yuechan chuckled again: "We women should abide by our duties, and we should not say what we should not say. What about taking a concubine or marrying a concubine? Naturally, there is a prince." We just need to listen to your considerations, when will we be able to make decisions for the men, the eighth sister-in-law is amazing, she can pull anything she wants into the house, and the eighth brother doesn't say anything, but our master is not so good-natured, sister-in-law I also know our lord's temper, if I dare to do this, maybe how angry our lord will be, I must say, dare to pull anything that smells good into the mansion, it's really unruly."

After saying this, Yuechan kept chanting Buddha in her heart, and said Ah Jiu, there was really no other way, so I had to move you out. Fortunately, you have performed well during this time, and you have not left any grounds for arrest, otherwise, I If I get rebuked today, I have to settle a bill with you when I go back.

Yuechan only thought so, but she didn't realize that Gao Zixuan became more and more important in her heart, and would compare him with others at any time.

"You!" Dongfang's angry face changed, and he stood up abruptly: "What do you mean by that, are you saying that I am talkative."

Yuechan lowered her head and smiled slightly: "You said it yourself, I didn't say that."

Dongfang's complexion was even worse, he squeezed the veil tightly, took a few deep breaths and tried not to have an attack.

Seeing that she didn't make a fuss anymore, Yuechan sneered in her heart, fortunately you are not insane, you made a fuss on such an occasion, otherwise, you will suffer, the Eighth Prince looks at the Buddha-like person, but his heart is the most vicious However, if you embarrass him, you can have good fruit to eat when you go back.

They were making a fuss here, Li Shi naturally listened to the letter, so she didn't come here, and she just wanted to embarrass Yuechan with the help of Murong Shi and Dongfang Shi.

Who knows, Yuechan is not easy to bully, and with a few words, the two of them were so angry that they almost didn't fight. Naturally, she can't hide anymore, she should go out to comfort her.

Mrs. Li came over in a hurry, with a white face, and smiled: "Sister-in-laws, brothers and sisters, it's all my fault. The arrangement is not appropriate, so you can laugh at me."

As her master came, everyone naturally had to give her face, so they laughed and said it was very good, there was nothing wrong with it.

Mrs. Li glanced at Yuechan, and saw Yuechan sitting quietly, drinking tea from a cup elegantly, with a calm expression on her face, as if nothing had happened.

Even she has to admire Yuechan's determination and kindness.

However, in an instant, she felt sad again, since Feng Shi entered the door, there would be no place for her in the future.

She really didn't want to, but she didn't dare to answer, not only couldn't show the slightest complaint, but also had to do the work for others with a smile on her face, she complied with that sentence, and made her a wedding dress with a smile.

Looking at herself and Yuechan, Mrs. Li felt a little jealous. How could Yuechan live so easily with the same princess.

For a playboy like Gao Zixuan, when Yuechan came in, he didn't have any more affairs, and even went home to watch when he had no official duties. I heard that Gao Zixuan was really nice to Yuechan now, what happened? Things went according to Yuechan's wishes.

Now, the side concubine of Shangci was pushed away again, probably because of Meng Yuechan.

How could Meng's virtue be so good, and what evil did she do to be abused so badly all her life.
