Good Man Operation Guide

Mu Qingling fell ill the day after she got married. Her judgment about Linjiang Wang Lin Shiheng was based on various information she heard before the marriage and her own speculation on the night of the wedding.

She originally thought that it would be difficult for a prince like King Linjiang who had never suffered any grievances since he was a child, to get him to listen and give advice. Unexpectedly, the other party listened as soon as she started.

Mu Qingling carefully observed Lin Shiheng's expression and breathed a sigh of relief when she saw that he didn't seem to be perfunctory.

A man who can communicate is better than a man who cannot listen.

"That's right, Princess."

Lin Shiheng suddenly spoke at the door where Mu Qingling had just breathed a sigh of relief, with a slight dissatisfaction in his tone: "Are your third sisters too unruly?"

Mu Qingling didn't react for a moment, and opened her eyes slightly, "What does the prince mean?"

"Just now, I was walking smoothly on the road, but she insisted on stopping me and said that she wanted to talk to me alone. This is not something a daughter of a good family can do, and it is too unruly."

Mu Qingling hesitantly glanced at King Linjiang who had a look of disgust on his face.

If she remembered correctly, during the bridal night, this man would have boasted about Mu Qingrong at length in front of her, his newlywed wife.

Even when she was wandering alone in the temple, he would praise her as having extraordinary courage and not being as boring as other women in the boudoir.

To be honest, on the wedding night, it was already a kind of humiliation to show off another woman to his wife like this. Mu Qingling was so angry that her face turned red, but he was her husband, so she swallowed the anger and treated it as nothing. It happened, and she couldn't handle it any other way.

At that time, I felt cold but at the same time I was glad that although the person I liked was Mu Qingrong and he despised her, fortunately he was willing to give her the dignity of a princess and did not walk away after seeing her face.

So the question is, how long has it been since then, why do you suddenly hate Mu Qingrong so much?

Mu Qingling's heart was full of questions, but it was difficult to ask them. She just lowered her eyebrows and lowered her eyes slightly, and said softly: "Third sister has been held in the palm of her hand since she was a child. She is still young, so her temper is unavoidable. I was a bit naive, I didn’t mean to quarrel, please forgive me.”

"She is your sister, and you call me brother-in-law. Naturally, I want to spare her for the sake of the princess."

Lin Shiheng smiled sarcastically, as if he was very chic: "Princess, please take good care of your health. When you recover, I will send you back to visit your mother-in-law."

"Thank you, Your Majesty."

Mu Qingling was still too weak to be polite, so she could only respond with a blank face.

Just as he agreed, he saw a man in rich clothes standing up, "The king will leave first, and I have a date with someone for a drink today. If there is anything the princess wants, I will bring it back to you by the way."

Mu Qingling is still sick, and there is nothing she wants. Just when she opened her mouth to refuse, she suddenly remembered that she is now his wife.

She had been in a coma the day after she got married. She still didn't know King Linjiang's attitude towards her as the princess, so now was the best time to test it out.

Mu Qingling thought about it, and hid the words of rejection in her throat, and said softly: "If the prince is free, can you go to Ziyunzhai and buy some makeup for me?"

"Okay, I will bring some back to you."

Lin Shiheng brushed his sleeves and said, "Your daughter's family is troublesome, and I never use makeup."

Mu Qingling smiled and did not answer. She just watched Lin Shiheng walk out of the house. Not long after he walked out, she could hear a frivolous laughter coming from outside.

"You're a pretty girl, but what's the name of the person next to the princess?"

Then, her dowry girl Putao's timid yet joyful voice replied: "Greetings to the prince, my name is Putao. She is the second-class girl serving the princess."

"Grape."

Her husband repeated the name playfully, with a heavier smile in his tone: "As expected, the person's stool is so watery that it hurts to look at it. Go and talk to the princess and ask her to prepare it for you. When the princess comes back, I will ask you to serve me.”

Putao's pretty face immediately showed joy, and she knelt down and kowtowed to the handsome King Linjiang who was smiling at her.

She was specially chosen as a dowry by the Second Lady, so naturally she and Mu Qingling were not of the same mind. Given such an opportunity, of course she had to seize it.

"Yes, my slave, thank you, Your Majesty."

"Don't kneel, don't kneel. When I see a beauty like you kneeling on this cold ground, my heart aches. Get up quickly. In the future, how about I give you the title of concubine?"

Putao was helped to stand up by Lin Shiheng's own hands, and she got the title of concubine for nothing. The surprise in her eyes almost overflowed. She was just a girl. Although she married Mu Qingling, the contract of sale was still in the hands of the second wife. I never thought there would be such an opportunity.

If you become a concubine, you will be the master in the future.

The second lady asked her to drug the eldest lady. The eldest lady would definitely not live for more than seven days. When she died, even if she had been a slave and could not be the main concubine, with this position of concubine, she would also have the title of concubine before the successor princess came in. She is sure that she can trap the prince who likes her in her room.

Have another child...

Putao quickly enjoyed the future, with excitement and joy in her beautiful eyes. She looked at Lin Shiheng with eyes full of yearning and shyness: "My slave, I thank you, Your Majesty."

Lin Shiheng looked at her with eyes full of tenderness and love, and even his voice softened: "What can I thank you for now? I will have plenty of time to thank you in the future."

After saying this, he turned and left the yard. Looking at his back, he must have been in a very wonderful mood. Putao stood there and looked at his back, his face full of shyness and excitement.

The nanny standing on the side looked at her, almost biting her teeth with hatred.

Although it is an unspoken rule that the dowry girl will be taken into the house by the uncle, but any family that loves their daughter will only look for dowry girls who are beautiful in appearance but very honest in character, and the contract of prostitution will definitely be firmly in the hands of the mistress.

With the deed of prostitution in hand, no matter how favored the girl is, it is something that the mistress can sell as soon as she wants.

Although it is cruel to stand as a dowry girl, this is the greatest protective barrier that can protect a married girl.

Their wives worked hard to find four girls who were beautiful, honest, and would never betray their master, just to prevent these girls from threatening the girl's status in the palace.

As a result, the day before the wedding, one of the girls "happened" to be seriously ill and couldn't get out of bed, and the second lady "happened" to have a good-looking girl at the right age, so she was sent to the big room without any refusal. .

Of course, this girl is Grape.

The wet nurse saw that this girl was not an honest person on the first day she came here. She originally thought that she would wait until the girl stabilized before finding an excuse to send her back. However, it turned out that this little hooves, which the girl had just woken up, actually hooked | Attracted the prince.

She was filled with hatred and worried that Putao would be a stumbling block for her girl if she really became a concubine in the future, and her face turned blue with anger.

The nanny's face was so conspicuous, of course Putao couldn't miss it, but she didn't care about it now. Does the concubine still need to care about a slave?

What's more, she has already confirmed in her heart that Mu Qingling will not live for more than seven days. Once Mu Qingling, the princess, dies, people like the wet nurse will be like duckweeds without roots, no matter how much they are protected by the princess. Generally, you can be bullied by others.

With confidence in his heart, Tao Tao glanced at the nurse in a masterly manner, opened the curtain and walked in.

The nanny felt angry again at the triumphant appearance of such a villain, and quickly followed her in.

"The princess hasn't communicated yet, what do you want to do!"

Putao was a girl that the second wife found from outside the house. She had not been trained in strict rules, and she was convinced that Mu Qingling would not survive seven days, so her confidence in her heart was very different.

With a smile on her face, she looked at the wet nurse sarcastically: "Mama Liu just heard it. The prince said that he would admit me into his room tomorrow. Although I, Putao, am just a girl, I am also the girl beside the princess. I will accompany the princess from home. I married from the Marquis, not to mention that the prince also asked me to be his concubine. After all, Putao is also someone close to the princess, so I can’t just be unprepared at all, right?”

The wet nurse looked at the pride on her face and wished she could tear her face off directly. There was a hint of cruelty in her mouth: "Even if the prince just said that he would admit you into the room, it will only happen tomorrow." , today you, Putao, are still the second-class girl next to the princess!"

"Master didn't say anything, you just barged in like this, are there any rules?"

The master is going to die soon, so what's the use of this rule.

Putao's face became more sarcastic, "Mother Liu, Putao is still a girl now, but she won't be tomorrow. I advise you, it's better to be careful what you say. Today you are reprimanding a little girl. Wait until tomorrow." , if you talk to me like this again, even if I let you go, the prince will probably not be able to see it, right? "

"you!"

The nanny was furious and was about to retort when she heard Mu Qingling's faint voice from behind the curtain: "Nanny, let the grapes come in."

Even if she was furious, she could only suppress her anger. She glanced coldly at Putao, who looked even more proud after hearing Mu Qingling's voice, and said coldly: "Come in with me."

Putao smiled proudly, opened the curtain and walked in with a swaying figure.

"This slave has met the princess."

Her demeanor when she knelt down was very different from before. She already had a rather delicate attitude of "I am a beloved concubine".

Mu Qingling's lips were still white, but her expression was not as angry as Putao and the nanny thought, but as if she had not heard that her husband was going to take the girl next to her as a concubine.

"Putao, I remember, you have been with me for less than ten days."

"yes."

Putao raised his face with a smile like a flower, "This servant was originally to serve the second lady. She only came to serve the princess before she got married."

"You didn't grow up around me, so maybe you don't know my temperament."

Mu Qingling didn't seem to notice her coquettish smile, and continued softly: "When I was in the mansion, I liked rules the most, but what I disliked the most was having unruly people around me."

"This Prince's Mansion is much larger than the Marquis' Mansion, so it requires more rules. If the rules are messed up, the whole mansion will be in chaos."

Putao said crisply: "This slave has never studied and cannot understand what the princess is saying."

"You haven't studied, but you should know that if you really become a concubine, you will be a member of the royal family. There is no reason for a royal person to sell her body to others."

Mu Qingling stretched out her hand, and the wet nurse stepped forward with a tacit understanding and handed her a cup of tea.

Her hands were very beautiful, with slender fingers and as white as jade. At this moment, these hands were holding the teacup while gently turning the lid of the teacup.

"When you really seal the title of concubine, I will send someone to the Marquis Mansion to ask Second Aunt to get your deed of betrayal back. By then, you will be free."

"It's just that you are free, but you can only be a concubine. I am the principal concubine and control the palace. The prince said to me personally that I am in charge of all affairs in the palace. Do you know what this means? ?”

There was confusion in Pu Tao's eyes, and there was also a hint of condescension that Mu Qingling couldn't understand.

She was a little funny. No matter how good-tempered she was, how could she not be angry when being looked at by a girl like this?

But Mu Qingling didn't understand that she was the master and Putao was the slave. What on earth gave Putao the confidence to look down on Mu Qingling?

Even the second lady didn't dare to show anything openly. Is she just a little girl too stupid or does she have a trump card?

Putao does have a trump card, but her trump card comes from the fact that she believes that Mu Qingling will die of illness soon, and she has won the favor of the prince.

So she wasn't afraid of Mu Qingling, who would be afraid of a dying person.

"I don't know, please let the princess know."

Mu Qingling lowered her eyes and blew the tea in the tea cup, "Now the whole family can be managed by me, the princess. Do you think, if tonight, a girl died of cold in the princess's courtyard, would it be okay? Does anyone care?"

Putao's body stiffened, and then he quickly relaxed: "But if this girl is liked by the prince and questions the princess, will the princess care?"

"She's just a girl. She's not a concubine after all. Even if she does become a concubine, I will be the leader and the concubine will be the deputy. The princess wants to deal with a little concubine, especially a concubine with no family background. ,easy."

"Your Majesty personally granted me the marriage. Even if the prince is unhappy because of a dead girl, he can really divorce me for this girl. At that time, I will still be the princess, but the girl can only send a straw mat out of the palace. Buried."

Putao was nervous at what Mu Qingling said and suddenly raised his head to look at the person leaning on the bed.

Mu Qingling, who was sitting on the bed, looked calm, as if he was talking about a very common thing, rather than about taking a life.

When he was with the Second Madam, he had seen the image of her beating a girl to death for seducing the Second Master, flashing through Putao's mind.

Mu Qingling was also from the Hou Mansion, and she had only been by her side for a few days. Maybe Mu Qingling was not as quiet as she appeared on the surface.

She wasn't trying to scare her, she really wanted to attack her!

The moment this thought came up, Tao Tao shuddered and his body started to tremble.

She was not afraid of Mu Qingling settling the score in the future, because she firmly believed that the other party would not survive until then, but she was afraid that Mu Qingling would really decide to send her on her way because of her disrespectful attitude.

Although Mu Qingling will be able to come down and stay with her soon after her death, what's the use of it since everyone is dead.

Putao was so frightened by his thoughts that his whole body was trembling, and the smugness on his face disappeared in an instant, and he said urgently: "I know your mistake, I will not dare to do it again next time, please forgive me, Princess. Please have mercy, Princess!”

Although she was kowtowing, she was not kowtowing hard like the civilian girl who had been kidnapped before. Instead, she was very careful not to bleed, so as not to ruin this beautiful face that the prince was attracted to.

Mu Qingling took a sip of tea without shouting. She waited until she was almost dizzy from knocking the grapes down, and then she said softly: "Get up."

"You are my dowry, and I will be proud to be my concubine. You will live in the side courtyard tonight. I will have people take good care of you, so as not to lose my face."

As she spoke, she didn't even raise her eyes, and just said: "Nanny, prepare ginseng soup for the Putao girl, and let her recover before serving the prince."

"yes."

Ginseng soup...

Putao's nerves suddenly became tense. Although she didn't stay in the second lady's yard for a long time, she also learned a lot of tricks.

For example, the second wife would give medicine to the concubine of the second master. After drinking the medicine, the woman would be infertile for life. Every time she had menstruation, she would be in extreme pain. She just wanted to die. If one or two of them slipped through the net, she would become pregnant. If she becomes pregnant, the fetus will definitely have a miscarriage within three months, which is naturally the work of the second wife.

She opened her mouth to shout, but she saw Mu Qingling on the bed, who seemed to have expected it, and raised her voice and said outside: "Gardenia, bring someone in."

The eldest girl Gardenia immediately opened the door and walked in. She saluted: "Master."

"Take Miss Putao out. Don't let her out of the side yard until the prince summons you tomorrow."br

"Yes." Gardenia agreed, turning to look at Tao Tao who looked horrified, "Girl, please."

"I won't go. What are you going to do? I won't go. The princess and your servant are wrong. Master..."

Putao was forcibly pulled out by several girls. The nanny closed the door and looked back at Mu Qingling with relief: "Young lady should have been like this a long time ago. If you can do this in the house, why do you have to be demoted to the ground like that by the third girl? "

Mu Qingling waited for the person to leave, and the indifferent expression on her face gradually turned into a bitter smile: "My mother and brother are living under the hands of the second aunt. Even if I have the intention, I can only endure it."

The wet nurse nodded distressedly, "What about this ginseng soup?"

"Go and get it from my private treasury. Just pick something close to the root. If she doesn't want to drink it, there's no need to force her. Just let her know that I, the princess, are not to be trifled with."

"Old slave, you are too kind, miss. Even you look down on Putao before she becomes a concubine. If she does become a concubine in the future, why not fight against you every day? Why don't you deal with it as soon as possible? ”

Mu Qingling smiled bitterly and shook his head: "As long as she behaves well, I don't want to do anything to her. If I do this, it will be easy. Maybe in the end, I won't even recognize myself."

The nurse sighed, "The girl is always like this, not fighting or competing, not getting angry when others provoke her. Although a lady from a noble family should have this temper, you are always giving in like this, and you won't fight back when you are bullied. You will suffer a lot in the future."

"What the nurse said is right, I will change."

Mu Qingling just smiled bitterly.

It's not that she always gives in, but she just doesn't have the confidence. When she was in the mansion, the second wife had a grudge with her mother and kept suppressing the first wife. She had no other way to go except to be a wooden man quietly.

After marrying into the palace, although the prince was kind to her, she didn't want to anger him so easily. Grape was a girl with a bad temper. Once she succeeded, she would be more annoying than before. With the prince's appearance, there would definitely be many women in the backyard in the future. With Grape's temper, she would be the first to die.

As a princess, even if she had no marital relationship with the prince, she had to abide by her duties, guard the palace for him, set rules and regulations, and suppress the women in the backyard.

As for not fighting back...

Mu Qingling looked down at the teacup in her hand, her eyes full of bitterness.

How could she have the confidence to fight back?

When she was at home, as a daughter, everything she had depended on her father. Therefore, when her father died, she, the originally favored daughter of the eldest house, became a foil to her younger sister in an instant.

When she arrived at the palace, her confidence was in her husband, King Linjiang.

If the other party didn't give her this confidence, what could she do?

Mu Qingling thought with some self-mockery, maybe it was really as the nanny said, she would not think of fighting back until she suffered a lot in the future.

Anyway, Grape was frightened now, and she would probably be honest for a while. When she recovered, the rules in the mansion would be rectified, and a concubine would not be able to cause any trouble.

Mu Qingling planned very well, and slept very well that night.

On the other hand, Grape, after she would rather die than drink the ginseng soup, the maids did not do anything to her, but took the ginseng soup and left obediently.

Grape was not relieved, but more worried.

Maybe she didn't drink the ginseng soup, which annoyed the princess and wanted her to die? !

She was frightened by her own fantasy. She didn't fall asleep all night. She kept her eyes open and huddled under the bed nervously looking at the door and window, fearing that someone would suddenly break in and kill her.

In the end, nothing happened until dawn.

She was changed into new clothes, wearing beautiful jewelry, and sent to the princess.

Lin Shiheng was visiting his princess, and he brought cosmetics and even a hairpin, which he pinned on Mu Qingling himself.

"How is it? Doesn't the hairpin I picked look good?"

Mu Qingling's complexion improved a little, and she smiled gently with the hairpin on, "The one chosen by the prince is naturally good."

"I think so too."

As she was talking, Grape came in.

She had been frightened all night, and seeing Lin Shiheng at this moment was like seeing a savior, and she knelt on the ground with a plop.

"Prince!! I finally see you, Prince, I..."

Grape wanted to explain in detail how she was wronged, but Lin Shiheng, who was sitting by the bed, suddenly stood up and stared at her with frightened eyes.

"Where did such an ugly maid come from? Get out of here immediately!"

Grape was shocked: "Your Majesty, Your Majesty, I am Grape. Yesterday you said you wanted to make me a concubine..."

"Bah!! You are so ugly and you dare to be a concubine!! You don't even carry my shoes!"

"Someone come here!! Throw her out, throw her out!!"
