Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 38 Rare Treasures

Yan Cui walked out of the room quickly, at the corner, she patted her chest, and whispered: "Fortunately, I didn't reveal anything, if I stayed in the room for a few more seconds, I would definitely tell, it's just Madam Why don't you tell the young lady? Didn't the young lady know about it in a while? Forget it, don't think about it, it's better not to ask about the master's affairs." Yan Cui walked towards the kitchen while talking.

Tang Lanhui sat at the main seat, slowly sipping the tea in her hand, with a faint smile on her face, but behind that smile, there was endless bitterness.

After Shangguan Wanchun finished washing, she went to the kitchen, and after preparing the ingredients, she went to the front hall.When she walked in, what she saw was such a beautiful picture: her mother Tang Lanhui was carefully blowing away the heat from the teacup in her hand. The gentleness of her movements was obvious, as if what she was holding in her hand was not a cup of tea, It's like a rare treasure.

"Mother!" Shangguan Wanchun couldn't help shouting softly.

Tang Lanhui raised her head, put down her teacup, and looked at her with a smile.

Shangguan Wanchun was taken aback for a moment, she saw that although her mother was smiling, she could feel the slight sadness in the depths of her mother's eyes.

"Chun'er." Tang Lanhui said and got up.

"Mom, I have prepared all the ingredients, and I believe we will be able to eat soon."

"Mother is not hungry, don't worry, don't get exhausted." Tang Lanhui said softly.

At this moment, a sharp voice sounded from outside the door, and she said in that dainty tone: "Yo, sister, are you here too?"

The two were smiling, when they heard the voice and turned their heads away, they saw Fourth Aunt walking over with a coquettish smile, followed by Shangguan Wanshan.

Seeing Tang Lanhui's mother and daughter looking at her with displeasure, the fourth aunt snorted coldly in her heart, and then said with a smile: "I heard that Miss Fourth was injured, so I brought some supplements." She glanced at her personal servant girl, and the servant girl put the tonic on the table.

The fourth aunt then smiled proudly and said: "These supplements are given to me by the master. The medicine is very effective. If you keep them for a few days, you will be cured."

"Thank you fourth aunt." Shangguan Wanchun replied in an official tone.

At this time, Shangguan Wanshan came to the front politely, and said with a smile: "Mother, sister, Shan'er is polite."

Seeing Tang Lanhui, Shangguan Wanshan only responded lightly, but Shangguan Wanchun didn't even lift her eyelids, which made her feel very uncomfortable.

Seeing this, the fourth aunt immediately said with a loud smile, "Hey? Why are you standing, sit down." Then she pulled Shangguan Wanshan to sit on the chair.

Only the fourth aunt went on to say: "Sister, you really raised a good daughter, and the fourth lady is really lucky. To be loved by the queen mother and invited to stay in the palace for a few days is really a blessing that has been cultivated for a few lifetimes." Ah! Don’t you think so, sister?”

The fourth aunt completely ignored Tang Lanhui's gradually darkening face, and continued to speak on her own, with a smug expression on her face.

Enter the palace?When did it happen, how come I don't know?Shangguan Wanchun asked in his heart.Although she didn't know about this matter, she didn't show it, and she still didn't change her expression.I think since ancient times, it has been as deep as the sea like the Hou family, let alone the imperial palace. Those who sincerely hope that their daughters will be good will never send their daughters there.Shangguan Wanchun thought in her heart, and then she looked at her mother's face, and she understood a little bit in her heart.

Seeing the puzzled and ignorant expression on Shangguan Wanchun's face, Shangguan Wanshan said with disdain in her heart: "I didn't expect my father to dislike you so much. He didn't tell you such a big thing until now, let alone Your good mother, hum! God has eyes!"

Shangguan Wanshan couldn't help but echoed, "Yes, Shan'er is here to congratulate my sister."

Seeing the gloating expression on Shangguan Wanshan's face, Shangguan Wanchun said in her heart: If people don't attack me, I won't attack others. If people attack me, I will fight back!

This has always been Shangguan Wanchun's consistent principle.Shangguan Wanchun sneered and said, "Really, Fourth Aunt? But I don't want to enter the palace? Then should I tell my father to let Sister Shan'er go instead of me?"

I saw Shangguan Wanshan looking at her with bright eyes, hoping that I could replace her, and the fourth aunt saw Shangguan Wanshan looking yearning, so she poked hard in private Shangguan Wanshan suffered from pain in her thigh, and looked at the fourth aunt unhappily. After seeing the fourth aunt winking at her, she realized how explicit her expression was just now, so she quickly adjusted her mood , and then showed a very disdainful look.

It's a pity that Shangguan Wanchun saw all this in his eyes and despised her very much in his heart, so her next sentence completely shattered Shangguan Wanshan's dream and made her fall from heaven to hell all at once.

I saw Shangguan Wanchun following the example of the fourth concubine, and said coquettishly: "Oh, it's not right, I think my sister is a concubine after all, her status will be worse, and my father may not agree."

These words just hit Shangguan Wanshan's Achilles' heel, she stood up abruptly, looked at Shangguan Wanchun with a stern look, as if she was about to tear her apart, and said angrily: "You !"

"Shan'er!" Fourth Aunt shouted coldly. Although she hated Shangguan Wanchun's mother and daughter to the bottom of her heart, she knew when to enter and when to retreat, especially now that Shangguan Wanchun is in favor. She must not be offended, otherwise she will have good fruit to eat.

"Mother, fourth aunt!" Shangguan Wanshan didn't expect that her mother would help outsiders today, and she was also her enemy, so she was very annoyed.

Only the fourth aunt said lightly: "Fifth Miss, you are a lady, you must not be underestimated!" As she spoke, she quietly tugged on Shangguan Wanshan's dress, and then secretly gave it to her again. She winked, Shangguan Wanshan gave up and sat down on the chair angrily.

"Heh, Miss Si, isn't what you just said a little too much?" The fourth aunt went on to say, "What's more, you don't even pour a cup of tea for your guests. Is this your way of hospitality?" Too provocatively, he said with a nonchalant smile.

"Fourth aunt, what you said is wrong. Let me tell you, you have been talking non-stop since you entered the door, and there was no time for me to call someone down. How did you talk about tea?" Shangguan Wan Chun asked back.

"Really?" Shangguan Wanchun then shouted to the boy outside the door: "Come here!"

"Miss Four!" The servant came in and said respectfully.

"Go and make two cups of hot tea."

"Yes." Saying that, the young man backed away.

After a while, the young servant came in with steaming tea.

"Ah!" Shangguan Wanshan yelled, and saw that the scalding cup of hot tea was sprinkled on her body without leaking, and the water droplets also splashed on her arms. With red blood bubbles, she kicked the boy in pain.

When the boy saw that he had caused trouble, he immediately fell to his knees in fright, trembling.

"Shan'er, are you alright?" Fourth Aunt stood up hastily, grabbed Shangguan Wanshan's arm, and asked anxiously.

"It hurts!" she cried.

The fourth aunt saw that her daughter was injured and in unbearable pain, so she didn't get angry, "You dog slave, how did you do it!" Then she kicked him hard.

"I'm sorry, the servant deserves to die, please punish Fifth Miss." The young man touched the blood oozing from the corner of his mouth, and crawled to Shangguan Wanshan's feet.

Seeing that the fourth aunt still wanted to kick him, Shangguan Wanchun hurriedly shouted: "Stop!"

"Sister, do you want to cover up the servants who have done something wrong? Is this your way of doing things?" Shangguan Wanshan looked at her fiercely and said.

"Sister, where did you say that? He didn't do it on purpose, so why did you beat and scold him like this? Besides, did he pour the tea on you? Or did you do it on purpose?" Shangguan Wanchun had already seen the clue, she knew that Shangguan Wanshan did this on purpose.

"You!" Shangguan Wanshan pointed at her and shouted angrily enduring the pain.

"Sister, what are you talking about? Shan'er has already been burned like this, and Miss Si still talks about her like this? How sad does this make a younger sister feel? Besides, who would burn himself? ?” Fourth Aunt said anxiously.

Just when Tang Lanhui was about to speak, she heard Shangguan's displeased voice: "What happened? Why is it so lively?"

From the moment he entered the door, he smelled a strong smell of gunpowder. This feeling made him very uncomfortable, so he came over with a gloomy face.

But Shangguan Wanshan didn't know how to read people's faces. She threw herself into Shangguanhe's arms with a single stride, and began to cry, crying, "Father, you must make the decision for your daughter!" !"

Seeing the displeasure on Shangguan He's face, he was very disgusted with Shangguan Wanshan's behavior in his heart.

Seeing that Shangguan and he were silent, the fourth aunt said emphatically: "Master, look at Shan'er's arm, it is full of blood blisters, it makes my heart bleed!" The fourth aunt covered her face and sobbed .

"Master, this slave didn't do it on purpose, I beg you to punish me." The servant hurried over and begged for mercy.

Shangguanhe glanced at Shangguan Wanshan indifferently, and then at the servant kneeling on the ground begging for mercy.It would be a lie to say that he doesn't feel distressed, but he said in a cold voice: "Uncle He, everything should be done according to the rules of the house."

"Yes." Uncle He nodded.

"You take Shan'er home first, and ask a doctor to come and bandage her." Shangguanhe then said to the fourth aunt.

"But, master." Seeing that Shangguan He didn't mean to blame Shangguan Wanchun's mother and daughter at all, the fourth aunt felt very unwilling.

Seeing Shangguanhe glanced at her coldly, Fourth Aunt said timidly: "Yes."

When did Shangguan Wanshan receive such treatment, the hatred for Shangguan Wanchun in her heart grew without limit.

After the fourth aunt, mother and daughter left, Shangguan Wanchun said flatly, "Father, why are you here?"

"Let me see how your injury is doing?" Shangguanhe said as he walked to the main seat and sat down.

"Thank you father for your concern. Chun'er's injury is much better." Shangguan Wanchun replied, but she said in her heart: I can't imagine that my father, who has always loved Shangguan Wanshan, is so powerful. He doesn't care about her at all. An unfavored first daughter, ha ha.

"That's good." Shangguan He said gently.

At this moment, Yan Cui trotted in and said happily: "Miss, the food is ready, you can eat now."

But when she raised her head and saw Shangguanhe was also here, she immediately silenced, saluted respectfully and said: "Master."

"Well, let's eat first, we'll talk after we finish." Said Shangguanhe got up and walked towards the inner hall.

Yan Cui looked at Shangguan Wanchun suspiciously, as if asking: Is the master eating here too?

Shangguan Wanchun looked at his mother Tang Lanhui, seeing that she did not show any displeasure, she felt relieved, turned her head and said to Yan Cui: "Yan Cui, go and prepare four servings of bowls and chopsticks."

"Yes." Yan Cui replied, then turned and walked to the kitchen.

"Mother, let's go to the restaurant for dinner." Shangguan Wanchun walked to Tang Lanhui and said with a smile.

"Okay." Tang Lanhui smiled lightly.
