Chapter 128 The War Between the Two Princesses

First she belittled herself, then changed the subject and said sharper, "It's a pity that my sister will have to spend more time in the future to take care of her son and not have unnecessary conflicts with her own brother. The older one, one grew up in the countryside, and has different tempers and temperaments, so it may be difficult for them to get along well."

"..."

In a few words, the face of the princess was ashen.

Due to her unsatisfactory stomach, she has not been able to conceive all these years. On the contrary, she is her greatest enemy. One child after another, she gave birth to two beautiful daughters and a son with outstanding talents.

If you want to say that you are not envious at all, then you are talking nonsense with your eyes open, but...

"Sister is right. My concubine's son is indeed a hunter, but no matter what, he is also the eldest son of the family, the former crown prince!"

Tried Bailing's tricks, every time he threw this trump card, the arrogant and domineering woman immediately shut up obediently, not daring to make any more mistakes.

But this time, I was a little helpless.

"Sister, you must not go outside and talk nonsense about such outrageous things."

"What should this princess say? When should I say it? Do I still need to report to you?"

"This……"

"The Empress is here!"

As soon as the concubine side's tit-for-tat words came to her lips, she heard the eunuch's shrill voice coming in. The two ceased fire for a while and knelt down to wait for the queen.

"I heard you guys arguing all the way from the palace. What is it about this great day that makes you so unhappy?!"

It's just asking knowingly!
The princess who was kneeling on the ground sneered in her heart. Others don't know. Could it be that the queen, the instigator, didn't know why she married her sister into the palace in the first place, just to target her everywhere while monitoring her!
"Empress, the concubine is just joking with my sister, what a quarrel! You must have misunderstood."

After some "well-intentioned" explanations, in the ears of the princess, it was just an ulterior motive, deliberately pretending to be a good person, in order to make herself more pitiful.

"Yan Wan, as a big sister, I can tell just by looking at how much pain you have in your heart. If you want to deceive Ben Gong, you may have to practice for a few more years."

While the queen was talking, she helped the side princess up herself, and ignored the princess, "After suffering an unfair loss, I have to talk to this palace, my mother passed away early, our sisters depended on each other, and my father resigned early in the morning If you are so estranged with me, how will I explain to my mother in the underground? Don’t you think so? Princess!”

At the end of the conversation, he pointed the finger at the princess.

"What the empress said is very true. Since your sister married into the Eighth Prince's Mansion, the concubine should treat her as her own sister and dare not be negligent."

Without the queen's will, even if her legs were kneeled down, she would not be able to move.

"It's good that the princess understands this truth, and I can rest assured."

While speaking, he looked around and hooked his hands at the chief eunuch who was standing not far away, "Bring me the congratulatory gift prepared by the palace, let the princess have a look, I don't know if the princess will be able to see it, They're all unhandy gadgets."

The white-haired old eunuch held the treasure box in both hands, opened the lid, and the rich fragrance of flowers came out.

"A purple-gold censer from the Western Regions. This is a high-quality treasure. There are only three in the palace. One was given to the emperor, one was placed in the Treasure Pavilion, and the other was originally given to the empress. His own son went home and specially sent him over to celebrate."

Listening to the eunuch's rhetoric, the princess raised her head and looked at the strangely shaped incense burner.

What the Western Regions are best at is not making incense, but practicing witchcraft.

Every year during the Great Court Blessing, all the vassals and kingdoms pay tribute to the good things and eatables, and they have to taste them one by one. If they think the taste is acceptable, they ask the eunuchs to record them, and then send out a booklet, ordering the vassals to send more.

As for those first-class fabrics, they all belong to the garment workshop, and they figure out the style and make new clothes for the harem queens and princesses and princes.

The rest are rare things, some can be held in the hands to play with, some can only be placed in the house as decorations, but all of them are the emperor's favorite, rarely appreciate, or put The Treasure Pavilion fell to ashes.

But only the objects sent to the palace from the Western Regions, no matter whether they are food, clothing, or use, are all given a symbolic look, and are directly distributed to the concubines of the harem, or thrown into the pavilion for storage.

As for the reason, there is only one reason, and it is nothing more than the fear that the most restless foreign race in the Western Regions will tamper with the tribute and be poisoned by Gu poison, and that is a narrow escape.

But now, the empress is actually holding this terrible thing to celebrate the son Quanxu Quanying's return to Beijing. This is not sincere, it is nothing more than a different way to warn that since Zhou Yongnian can be killed once, there will be a second time.

"Princess, what is your expression? Don't you like the gift from Bengong?"

"Chen and concubine dare not."

The concubine touched the ground with her knees, turned around, and kowtowed to the queen who had already walked into the corridor and cared so much for the concubine's son, "The concubine is overjoyed, I didn't expect the empress to treat the concubine's son The son is so sad, he is flattered."

"As long as you like it, use it if you like it."

The queen used her eyes to signal the old eunuch to help the princess up. If she was kept on her knees, once word got out, she would inevitably be gossiped and would only ask for trouble.

Even the aloof Lord of the Sixth House still needs to be somewhat measured in his words and deeds.

"Tomorrow, the son and his wife and children are going to the capital. I heard that the wife of the son is a rural woman. Is it true?"

Supporting each other with the side princess, they sat quietly at the stone table under the corridor, and the maid who followed immediately picked up the teapot and poured tea for the two masters.

"Yes."

The concubine stepped forward and forcefully squeezed out the word "yes" between her teeth.

It's true that good things don't go out, and bad things spread for thousands of miles. People haven't even arrived in the capital, and the rumors of this kind of thing have already spread, and people outside the palace are probably talking about this country lady! !
The concubine, who has always been very concerned about face, now loses all face for her son.

"Hmm..." The queen drank a cup of high-quality jasmine tea, tasted the sweet taste, and then continued, "If this is the case, this matter will be very difficult. There is no precedent for a rural girl to be the wife of the prince, so what should I do?"

"Empress, what do you mean..."

"Divorce your wife and marry another. There are many ladies in the capital. Any girl from any family is a hundred times stronger than a rural girl!!"
