The Playful Queen: The Evil King's Favorite

Chapter 3 In This Patriarchal Age
——Bachelor's House——

The gate of this scholar's mansion is particularly elegant and bookish. There are two big stone lions standing in front of the gate, and there are a few gold-plated characters "Scholar's Mansion" on the black plaque. One after another, officials and nobles go in.

The three of Beiming Shaoxiao were pulled into the warm chariot and rushed to the scholar's mansion early in the morning, so that Beiming Shaoxiao on the chariot was still dozing off.

"Second sister?" Beiming Xiaoxi approached the dozing Nanming and smiled a little, stretched out her tender little hand and pushed her.

"En." Beiming Shaoxiao was already awake, and he didn't open his eyes after being pushed like this, so he responded habitually.

"Can you talk to me, Xi'er is so boring." Beiming Xiaoxi's immature voice was really cute, and she shook her arm.

"Let Elder Sister accompany you, I want to squint for a while." Her crescent-like brows were frowned, and her tone was a little impatient.

Are you happy that sister is back in school again?Still talking with you?My sister doesn't want to talk, my sister wants to escape, my sister yearns for freedom!

"Second sister..."

"Xi'er, don't mess around, let the second imperial sister sleep for a while." The dignified and quiet Beiming Yuyuan now scolded Beiming Xiaoxi, and stretched out her hand to hold Beiming Xiaoxi who was about to pounce on Beiming Shaoxiao. .

"Oh~" Maybe because she felt bored, Beiming Xiaoxi stopped and sat aside to play with herself.

quite a while
"Three princesses, the scholar's mansion is here." The palace servants outside the warm chariot shouted.

Beiming Ruoyuan's Liu Mei frowned lightly. Now that she has arrived at the scholar's mansion, Beiming seldom smiles or closes her eyes. As the eldest sister, she naturally has to take care of her face and politeness. Wake up and get out of the car!"

well!Come on, accept your fate!

Beiming Shaoxiao stood up with a sad face, said "oh" weakly, and got out of the chariot first.

"Your Majesty is waiting for the three princesses!" Outside the door, Beiming Shaoxiao obviously didn't even look at it, and stood behind Beiming Yuanyuan very unhappy. Anyway, she is not the eldest sister, she just cares Just stand behind and be a passerby.

"Everyone, please be polite, please get up quickly." Beiming Yuyuan generously gave her a hand, and politely asked them to stand up.

"Thank you, Empress." Everyone stood up and thanked Beiming Guyuan after they got permission. They were very satisfied with and praised Beiming Guyuan's actions.

Eunuch Yang came out from the back of the chariot at this moment, and said forward, "This is the second princess that His Majesty loves the most, and the scholar's house can take more care of her in the future." As soon as the words came out, no matter how stupid everyone was, they could understand the meaning.

"Of course I won't be negligent, Your Majesty, please rest assured." An old woman answered the words, and she was the oldest senior scholar 'Lu Qin'.

With her words, Eunuch Yang smiled with satisfaction.

But Beiming Shaoxiao himself was not as at ease as he imagined. After listening to her words, Beiming Shaoxiao just glanced at her without squinting, and stood there expressionlessly.

"Princes, please come in!" Lu Qin politely invited them in with a refined attitude.

"En." Beiming Ruoyuan nodded and went in first, followed by Beiming Shaoxiao and Beiming Xiaoxi.

Swimming around is just a tour of the scholar's mansion. The places that should be introduced are also introduced. The familiar places are basically familiar. The next step is to arrange accommodation. Since Beiming Shaoxiao is an exception, there is no need to Arrange to go back to the Prime Minister's Mansion first.

After being busy for a long time, Beiming Shaoxiao was also hungry, and sat in the car chewing mung bean cakes to satisfy her hunger, while Xiaozao on the side added tea to prevent her from choking.

"Prince, please slow down, you will arrive at the prime minister's mansion soon, the prime minister has prepared the food and wine, don't lose your image." Xiaozao reminded a few words while busy making tea.

"It's alright, alright, I, really, know." Bei Mingshao smiled with a pastry in his mouth, and his speech was so funny, he took the tea from Xiaozao and drank a few gulps.

"Eat slowly." Xiaozao reached out to pat her on the back.

"It's okay." Swallowing a sip of tea, it felt a lot better.

In less than half an hour, the chariot drove to the gate of the prime minister's mansion, and Qiu Yingyu led the family to wait at the gate.

"Your Majesty, Your Royal Highness."

"Welcome Your Highness."

Everyone bows down.

Beiming Shaoxiao playfully stepped down from the chariot, looked at Qiu Yingyu with a smile, and said in a calm tone: "Aunt Qiu, please get up, everyone get up!"

During the speech, she had already stood beside Qiu Yingyu, holding Qiu Yingyu's left arm.

"Aunt Qiu, can you introduce everyone to me?" Her easy-going and unassuming appearance made everyone have a good impression of her.

"This is the official husband of the old minister, Mrs. Yu." Qiu Yingyu pointed to the green-robed man beside her, and then pointed to the four men behind him, "These are the four husbands of the old minister. Mrs. Xu, Mrs. Jing, Mrs. Li."

"Hello, uncles." She smiled obediently and greeted the men dexterously. After all, she knew that to get along well was the kingly way.

"Prince, you're being polite." Yu said with a laugh, and the other husbands also nodded to Beiming Shaoxiao, and a slight smile represented politeness.

"Okay, let's go in and have dinner together! Princess, please." Qiu Yingyu slightly parted her lips, with a cheerful look on her face, and invited Beiming Shaoshao to enter with a very polite manner.

"Thank you, Aunt Qiu." She nodded obediently and sensiblely, and then stepped into the door first. No one saw the dark smile in her eyes.

Think about it!
How long is the future?Reading as a companion is also a pastime.

……

"Jingming Pavilion" This is the residence that Qiu Yingyu arranged for Beiming Shaoxiao.

At this moment, Beiming Shaoxiao returned to his new residence, climbed onto the bed early without taking a second look, fell asleep soundly, how could he go to class if he didn't have enough energy?hey~
Instead, the two maids who came in to help her tidy up and salute were called out by Xiao Zao so as not to disturb her sleep.

After sleeping for an unknown amount of time, there were small cries and whipping sounds in his ears. Beiming Shaoxiao suddenly opened his eyes, looked out the window, and listened carefully. The sound did not come from a dream, but rather from the yard next door.

"Come here." She sat up from the bed, lifted the quilt and got off the bed, and looked close to the window.

The female guard guarding the door hurried in, clasped her fists and knelt down obediently: "Your subordinate is here, what is your order?"

"Do you know who lives next door?" Qing Congyu pointed to the other half of the wall outside the window, which was the source of the voice.

The female guard hesitated for a moment, then replied, "I'm telling the emperor, it's an abandoned courtyard."

"Accompany me to have a look." Something was wrong, Beiming Shaoxiao frowned lightly, put on his coat and walked out quickly.

The female guard behind her naturally had to keep up.

Stepping into the yard, it was covered with layers of weeds and dust. Beiming Shaoxiao walked lightly towards the house, and the crying inside became louder and louder.

"Prince..." The female guard was about to say something, but she was stared back by Beiming Shaoxiao, and obediently shut up and followed behind her.

Beiming Shaoxiao squatted down and walked towards the window, because of her short body, it was very convenient for her to hide outside the window and watch the situation inside.

There was a child sitting on the haystack inside because of his tattered clothes, and Bei Ming could not tell whether it was a boy or a girl with a small smile. The child was huddled in a corner, covered with wounds all over his body, and his small body was trembling constantly. A tall and burly woman stood opposite the child, holding a long grass whip, and whipped the child without any mercy.

Beiming Shaoxiao's pupils shrank, and a protective heart rebelled, suddenly turned around and whispered to the female guard: "Go and call Aunt Qiu."

The female guard nodded and tiptoed out of the yard.

"Crack, crack, crack..." The straw whip lashed the child, causing the flesh to rip apart, and bright red blood ran down the child's body.

"Stop." Beiming Shaoxiao couldn't help shouting, the more she looked at it, the more frightened she became, this is still a child, how did she do it.

The woman inside stopped her hands, turned her head to glance out of the window with vicious eyes, and said cruelly: "Hmph! A little girl's film? Since you saw it, then you shouldn't live in this world."

After closing his words, he quickly ran to the window, opened the broken window with a whip, and stretched out his hand to make Bei Ming laugh less.

"Presumptuous! Do you know who I am?" Bei Ming sneered with a small smile.

"I don't care who you are, if you know my secret, don't even think about getting out alive." The woman was not moved by it, but became even more murderous.

A whip was thrown, fortunately Beiming Shaoxiao lowered his head and dodged quickly, but in the next second his arm was grabbed by the woman, and he pinched him ruthlessly.

Beiming smiled and took a breath of air, how unreasonable he was pinching and pinching his old lady, it hurt her to death, I will make you look good later.

"Plop~" The woman mentioned Beiming Shaoxiao and threw it on the haystack.

Beiming Shaoxiao finally realized that the child in the corner was a boy, and he seemed to be taller than himself, why is he so weak!
After thinking about it, this is women respecting the country, and the personality differences between men and women are quite interchangeable.

The woman waved her hand and a whip fell, "Pa~"

"Stop!" The door was kicked open, and Qiu Yingyu snatched the whip from the woman's hand with her bare hands.

He scolded: "Presumptuous! Still don't kneel down."

Qiu Yingyu looked at the woman sternly, her eyes were full of disbelief and surprise, she never thought that the woman in front of her would do such a thing.

The moment the woman saw Qiu Yingyu come in, her complexion was stiff for a long time, and she smiled softly: "Yingyu, aunt, I..."

"I am late to save you, please forgive my sin!" Qiu Yingyu ignored the woman and knelt down in front of Beiming Shaoxiao with an apologetic expression.

"Aunt Qiu, this matter has nothing to do with you, don't kneel down and torture me." Bei Ming glanced at the woman with a small smile, and hurriedly pulled Qiu Yingyu up.

"Plop~" The woman knelt down in front of Beiming Shaoxiao, her face turned pale instantly, she turned out to be the princess?This……

"Caomin pays homage to the imperial daughter, asks the imperial daughter to show mercy, and spare Caomin."

"Princess, I beg you to hand this person over to me, and I will give you a satisfactory answer." Qiu Yingyu's face was dull, but her eyes were surprisingly cold and selfless.

Hearing this, Beiming Shaoxiao must have no objection.

It's just that the woman's complexion changed drastically, from pale to livid, she looked at Qiu Yingyu in disbelief, she knew this niece, she was too much like her sister, if she said this, I'm afraid she would be doomed .

"Come here, take the princess back to her room to rest." Qiu Yingyu turned her back, unable to see the expression on her face for a while, her voice was very indifferent.

"Aunt Qiu, can you give this child to me?" Beiming Shaoxiao originally wanted to leave, but when he turned around, he saw the child in the corner staring at him pitifully and the wound on his body was still bleeding , asked out of sympathy.

Qiu Yingyu turned her head to look at the person in the corner, and nodded: "Yes."

Beiming Shaoxiao walked towards the child in the corner, pulled him up and walked out, regardless of what Qiu Yingyu wanted to do with the woman.

And the child beside him was trembling, with an inexplicable sense of reassurance when his little hand was held by Beiming Shaoxiao, he stared at her intently and let her lead him away.

——The Mirror Pavilion——

"Princess, the Nian imperial doctor is here to see you." The female guard reported.

"Biography." Bei Ming raised his eyes and smiled slightly. This year's imperial physician and himself are also old acquaintances. Today's uninvited visit is probably the meaning of the empress.

After a while, a fat woman in official uniform came slowly, holding a medical box in her hand, and saw Beiming half-kneeling with a smile: "I see the princess."

"Prince Nian, please get up." Bei Ming smiled and gave a little help, and continued: "Give me a seat."

"Thank you, Empress." Imperial Physician Nian stood up, and sat down opposite Beiming Shaoxiao.

"Prince, Your Majesty heard that you invited a doctor, and was worried, so he sent a humble minister to check if there is any physical discomfort for the princess." The imperial doctor Nian did not beat around the bush, and went straight to the point.

I asked a doctor to treat that child. Does the empress know about "asking a doctor"?The news is too well-informed, right?It's only a matter of time.

"The king is fine. I asked the doctor to see a friend." Bei Ming frowned slightly with a slight smile, and slightly parted his lips, and replied, "You can return to the harem and return to your life. Let the empress rest assured that everything is fine with me. .”

I have only been out of the palace for a day, is it possible that the empress is not at ease?It would be better for me not to go to school at all.

Nian imperial doctor heard the words, smiled clearly, and said: "Then I can rest assured, I will bring the emperor's daughter's words, and I will leave."

"Xiaozao, send off the imperial physician." Beiming Shaoxiao stood up and shouted to the outside.

"Nian imperial physician please." Xiao Zao hurried in and treated everyone politely.

The imperial physician Nian nodded to Beiming Shaoxiao, then turned and left.

At this time, the female guard stood outside the door with the child, and said respectfully: "Princess, this young master's wound has been treated."

"Well, come in!" Bei Mingshao nodded with a smile, and took a sip of the tea room. The two had entered the door and stood in front of them.

The young man was taller than himself, and changed into a clean and luxurious black brocade robe, with a handsome face that was still young and childish, but he had a somewhat handsome temperament, and a pair of deep and dark eyes stared at Bei Ming. Laugh less.

"How old are you? What's your name?" Beiming Shaoxiao didn't care that he looked at him, and asked first.

"I don't have a name, and I don't know how old I am." The boy answered softly with his head down.

"Why do you call yourself a slave?" Beiming Shaoxiao avoided the original words and said something else.

When asked by her like this, the boy was indeed stunned for a long time before he said in a daze, "Because the slave is a slave with a low status."

Who gave you such a cruel thought?Children.

"Your status is not humble, and you will be called... Shaoyuan from now on, can you be successful?" After pondering for a while, he blurted out a name when he thought of it.

"Thank you for the name given by the princess." Shaoyuan's eyes were a little moist.

"Can you call yourself me, don't call yourself a slave, come on, we will be good buddies from now on." Bei Ming Shaoxiao found a playmate, of course he looked at him like a brother.

Although he didn't understand what "brother" was, but seeing her harmonious and approachable smile, she lowered her head slightly, her face was a little blush, and she stood there silently.

Beiming Shaoxiao naturally didn't pay much attention to Xiongzi's expression.

Afterwards, Shaoyuan's residence was arranged, and it was learned from the female guard that Shaoyuan was the illegitimate son of Aunt Qiu Yingyu, born of a prostitute, so he had been abused all the time.

After listening, Beiming Shaoxiao sighed sympathetically, this poor baby did not have a good pregnancy in this era of patriarchy.

This matter soon spread to Bei Minglin's ears.

In the imperial study room, she and Mo Qi looked at each other, smiling lightly and thoughtfully.

"What do you think?" Bei Minglin asked first.

"Your Majesty has his own thoughts, why don't you listen to His Majesty's thoughts first." Mo Qiyun replied with a singing voice, with a spoiled smile in the corner of his eyes, no matter what, he only wanted his daughter to be well. As for Lin'er's decision, he It will not participate in half points.

Bei Minglin gave him a clear look, and gracefully picked up the pen to write on a blank imperial decree, and finally pressed the jade seal upward.

Beiminglin's vermilion lips curled slightly, and she handed the imperial decree just finished to Mo Qi, and said cheerfully, "How about you help me take a look?"

Mo Qi took the imperial decree, glanced away, smiled acquiescingly, and nodded towards Bei Minglin.

　Thank you for your support
