Chapter Fifty-Seven: Blushing into a Monkey's Ass
Concubine Xian didn't laugh angrily, Su Youyi secretly thought in her heart that the queen's scheming was still too shallow, and she was deceived by Concubine Xian.
If she didn't move, she was afraid that Concubine Xian would not be able to confirm that this title was not from the queen, and now the queen was angry, but she didn't confess herself.
Su Youyi couldn't help but wonder if the emperor wanted the queen to protect her or let her help the queen by tying her up with the queen on his own initiative?
The more she thought about it, the more she felt that the latter was more likely.
Concubine Xian smiled: "Yes, it's all the concubines who lost their words, please don't take the queen to heart." ”
The queen seemed to realize that she had just been too strict, and looked at Concubine Hui with a smile on her face, "How is the eldest princess doing lately?" How's the needlework going? ”
Concubine Hui also responded with a smile, "There is the care of Queen Lao." Jing Yan has nothing to do in the room middle needlework girl red, a few days ago embroidered a handkerchief in the fish play lotus pond. She also said that when her craft improves, she must embroider a purse for the queen. ”
Regardless of whether this was said by the eldest princess or Concubine Hui herself, the queen was comfortable when she heard it, and she nodded to Concubine Hui with satisfaction.
Concubine Hui is the maid of the former queen, and she has always regarded herself as a person from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, so the queen naturally can't get close to her.
Although he is not close, he has a good impression of her gentle temperament.
She looked at Concubine Xian again, this time her attitude was not as affectionate as she asked the eldest princess, "How is the second prince these days?" I heard that the eldest prince went out on patrol with the emperor, and the second prince was very unhappy, and he lost his temper and beat the palace people. Is this true? ”
I almost forgot about the second prince.
I have long known that he is uneasy and kind to the eldest prince, but I didn't expect that he looked gentle at a young age, and he would beat the palace people.
A naughty child like the eldest prince, when he gets angry, he scolds Xiao Jizi at most for being angry, and he has never made a move, and he doesn't want the second prince to be in front of his brother.
Su Youyi pricked up her ears to listen to Concubine Xian's reply, since this matter had been known to the queen, she showed her cowardice when she wanted to quibble, and simply admitted it generously.
"Yes, the second prince is young, naïve and ignorant. He saw that his father and the eldest brother had gone out of the palace, and wanted to play with the eldest brother, so he accidentally hit the palace people twice in a hurry. ”
She said that the second prince was jealous that the eldest prince could drive out of the palace with him, saying that the second prince wanted to play with the eldest prince, and this reason was impeccable, and Su Youyi admired it.
The second prince is naïve and ignorant?
Su Youyi grew up with her father in the school, if the second prince is naïve and ignorant, then the ones she saw when she was a child are probably idiots-
Even the eldest prince, he is an idiot.
She has never seen a more precocious child than the second prince, living out of a miniature version of the virtuous concubine, and her scheming is terrifying.
The queen snorted coldly.
She has already learned Concubine Xian's clever words and arguments, and she has already practiced an attitude of not being surprised.
"That virtuous concubine is going to discipline the second prince, the emperor has never liked the princes to be pampered, and they have become naughty and playful. The second prince is now beating twice and the palace is small, and it will become even worse in the future, not to mention that the mother-in-law of the palace has not been disciplined well. ”
Concubine Xian's face changed slightly.
She has always regarded the second prince as her greatest pride, and she can't tolerate others saying that the second prince is not good at all, and she is even more disgusted with the word "mother-in-law" in the queen's mouth.
The concubine next to her is not as valuable and favored as her, so she can only abide by the duty of the concubine, and the position of the virtuous concubine is naturally unwilling to be pressed by the queen.
She still had a faint smile on her face, but her tone was three points colder, "The concubine only has a son like the second prince, so she will naturally teach him all the poetry and books she has learned." However, the queen went early, and the eldest prince had no biological mother to take care of her, so the queen should spend more of her thoughts on the eldest prince! ”
She glanced at Su Youyi as she spoke, with an expression as if she suddenly thought of something, "Hey, the palace has forgotten, and now there are nobles by the side of the eldest prince." In the past, when the nobles were still serving by the eldest prince's side, the two of them were like their own mother and son, but now they have the name of a legitimate concubine, wouldn't it be better? ”
As soon as these words came out, not only the queen's face changed slightly, but even Concubine Hui frowned and looked at Su Youyi.
Su Youyi secretly said in her heart that it was not good, Concubine Xian wanted to use the eldest prince to provoke the relationship between her and the queen, the identity of the eldest son was higher than that of the second son, and the eldest prince was the most valuable of all the princes.
Concubine Xian said that she and the eldest prince were mother and son, which was tantamount to roasting her on the fire, how could the queen not be afraid as a middle palace?
Concubine Hui is nominally close to the eldest prince as the maid of the former queen, but in fact she also wants to be with the eldest prince, how can she be willing if Su Youyi is allowed to come later?
Su Youyi hurriedly got up and said: "Concubine Xian, don't laugh at the concubine, the concubine is not a few years older than the eldest prince, like his playmate, how can she be like a mother and son?" The biological mother of the eldest prince is the first queen, how noble is her status? The concubine was born as a palace maid selected by the people, and she did not dare to be commensurate with the mother and son of the eldest prince when she was killed. ”
The queen's face softened slightly.
Su Youyi is right, even if the emperor and the eldest prince like her again, there is absolutely no possibility of raising the eldest prince under her knees.
It's not that her identity is humble, it's that the background of the eldest prince is too precious, even if the emperor raises him under his knees, she, the stepmother, has to hold it carefully.
Concubine Hui has been with the eldest prince for so many years, and even gave up her life to save him, she is still a close confidant of the first queen, didn't the emperor hand over the eldest prince to her to raise?
Concubine Hui also laughed, "Noble Zhao said so, then this palace and you are both from palace maids, and they can be regarded as having the same roots." ”
"How can that be the same?"
Su Youyi didn't think about it: "Concubine Hui Niangniang is a person from the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and she acts in everyone's style. Who doesn't know that in the Gaomen mansion, the girl who serves the young lady close is the same as the deputy lady, and the etiquette and upbringing are the same? ”
This made Concubine Hui feel comfortable, not only was she happy, but even the big palace maids such as Cui Shao who were waiting in the palace had a light on their faces.
Su Youyi glanced at it, and knew that Cui Shao must also be the dowry maid brought by the queen from her mother's house, and the same is true for Fang Concubine and Yan Concubine.
Young women naturally can't trust the people in the palace when they first enter the harem, and it is normal to use their own dowry maids to be big palace maids.
A person like Su Youyi, who was born as a palace maid, did not have a maid brought from outside the palace by her side, and subconsciously chose Shuya, who served her from the beginning, as the big palace maid.
The queen saw that she spoke very measuredly, was both modest and knew how to please others, and the key was that she was quick and eloquent, and she was very happy.
Whenever the concubines get together, the virtuous concubine always shows off, and now it's time for someone with a flexible mind and a book to extinguish her words.
Concubine Xian smiled faintly and easily took Su Youyi's words, "Exactly, in the past, the news of the refusal of the emperor's noble person to agree to the emperor came out, and I don't know how many people in the harem talked about you." At that time, the palace heard others say that you want to wait for the eldest prince to be the person next to the eldest prince, otherwise how can you be willing to refuse the emperor? ”
