The concubine is also very good today

Chapter 163 The sons-in-law are coming back soon!
At the same time, Xu Ruyi also found Xu Mingxiao's biological mother, Concubine Rong, after she went to court.

If Xu Mingxiao hadn't suddenly climbed a high branch and was adopted by the Empress Dowager Jiang, many people would have forgotten that there was such a number one person in the palace. Back then, no one knew how she climbed into Xu Yinghong's bed. Xu Yinghong saw that she was pregnant with a dragon heir, so he gave her a birthright, but Empress Chen and Concubine Liu Guifei each stood on half of the harem, and Concubine Rong could not climb up even if she gave birth to a prince.

Everyone thought so at the time, but who knew she would surprise everyone like this.

Now, her son is also fighting for the crown prince.

After Xu Ruyi came to Concubine Rong's bedroom, Concubine Rong's first reaction was a little surprised.

But she knew that Xu Ruyi was likely to have the right to speak in the current battle for crown prince, so she warmly greeted Xu Ruyi and said, "Princess Zhaorong, why are you free to come to this palace today? Look, before you came Without saying hello, I'm not even prepared."

Xu Ruyi replied: "I haven't seen Auntie for a long time, and it happened to be entering the palace today, so I wanted to come and have a look."

Concubine Rong saw Xu Ruyi coming, and hurriedly called the maid to bring Xu Ruyi some good food, and said: "This is the best pastry here in this palace, try it to see if it suits your taste. "

Xu Ruyi replied: "My aunt's kindness, I appreciate it, but my teeth have always been bad, so I can't eat these sweets with sugar."

Concubine Rong finally came to her senses, and hurriedly said guiltily: "Hey! Why did you forget about this! I think it's because my aunt hasn't seen Zhaorong for a long time. Let's go into the back room. My aunt will have to pay Zhaorong some trouble. no!"

In a few words, Xu Ruyi had an insight into Concubine Rong's attitude. She was either playing tricks with herself, or she really had a trace of humility in her bones. To Queen Mother Jiang, Xu Mingxiao was still a concubine, and Xu Ruyi was the one in Queen Mother Jiang's eyes. If Concubine Rong knew about the "direct lineage" of the "direct line", then the subsequent matters would be easier to handle.

Xu Ruyi then called Xingtao and Chaoming over, and said: "Now that the Seventh Emperor brother is being raised by the aunt's side, I am close to him, so I should come to see my aunt. I have brought Some of the tea that the aunt usually drinks, the Seventh Emperor also often drinks this in the palace, I didn't know that he also had the habit of drinking tea before."

Concubine Rong was silent.

She didn't dare to say where a child Xu Mingxiao had the habit of drinking tea, and she didn't dare to ask how Xu Mingxiao was doing after he was in the hands of Empress Dowager Jiang.

She has been wondering how Xu Ruyi got this toothache problem, and this incident always made her think about it with horror.

After the tea was brewed, Chao Ming poured a cup for Xu Ruyi and Concubine Rong each, the teacups belonged to Concubine Rong, Concubine Rong watched Xu Ruyi take a sip first, and then followed suit.

When I drank it, I didn't feel anything unusual.

She didn't get close to Xu Ruyi, so she didn't know Xu Ruyi's vicious deeds of helping Queen Mother Jiang clean up hidden dangers all the year round.

After Xu Ruyi drank tea with Concubine Rong, she went to visit her courtyard. The courtyard was indeed renovated, but it was far less luxurious than the courtyards of Empress Chen and Concubine Liu.

Speaking of this point, Concubine Rong also laughed and said: "Those two empresses, one is the main wife and the other is the concubine, how can I compare with them?"

Xu Ruyi smiled and said, "I think it's not bad for Auntie to live a peaceful and stable life like she is now."

Concubine Rong's forehead unknowingly seeped thin sweat.

At this time, Chao Ming came over and said: "Princess, the fifth princess heard that you are back, and would like to invite you to sit with the queen."

Sure enough, Empress Chen couldn't be idle anymore, and wanted to find out the news from Xu Ruyi.

After Xu Ruyi said a few words to Concubine Rong, she went to visit Empress Chen.

At that time, Xu Changjiao actually returned to the palace. She was eating cakes in the main hall of Fengqi Palace. When she saw Xu Ruyi coming over, she hurriedly waved, "Third Sister! I haven't seen you for a while!"

Haven't seen you for a while?

Ever since Xu Changjiao forced Qi Teng into the Evergreen Palace, Xu Ruyi didn't want to see her.

From the bottom of her heart, she disagreed with Xu Changjiao's practice of forgiving and indulging Qi Teng again and again, so that Qi Teng now has people from both his family and Yue's family to support him, and even if he hangs around, there is still a way out.

Xu Ruyi sat across from Xu Changjiao, only to hear Xu Changjiao say: "Third sister is doing well recently! I heard that she took over the property of the third son-in-law and made the business flourish!"

Xu Ruyi smiled and said, "I'm just playing for fun, it would be quite interesting to take over the shop."

"Hey! I just don't know how the sons-in-law are doing. They have never suffered any crimes. If they are suddenly asked to practice for three months, I wonder if the third sister will feel distressed?"

Xu Ruyi asked back: "Do you feel distressed?"

Xu Changjiao snorted: "I don't know that! I really hope that he can develop some skills when he comes back this time. Don't just push Pai Gow like before!"

Xu Ruyi said: "So, they are just growing their skills, so what is there to worry about?"

Xu Changjiao didn't know if Xu Ruyi was playing dumb. They were about to come back, but there was only one place for promotion. Xu Ruyi took over Jing Yu's property, didn't she have this plan in mind?Xu Changjiao didn't believe it when he said this!

But looking at Xu Ruyi's unhurried appearance, he said: "My palace has never had high requirements for concubines. It is good that he can learn something, and it doesn't matter if he can't. Will take good care of him."

Xu Changjiao "tsk tsk" twice: "It's because he has accumulated virtue in his previous life that he can still get a princess like you."

Xu Ruyi didn't respond. She was waiting for Empress Chen to show up, but she had a steady temper and kept asking Xu Changjiao to eat with her today. When Xu Ruyi proposed to leave an hour later, Empress Chen couldn't do it either. show up.

But during the meal, Xu Changjiao asked casually: "Looking at the current situation, I'm afraid it's time to set up a reserve?"

Xu Ruyi immediately replied vigilantly: "Father's thoughts, who knows."

While eating melon seeds, Xu Changjiao asked Xu Ruyi, "In my opinion, who is more suitable?"

Xu Ruyi said: "Then it depends on Father's arrangement."

Xu Changjiao gave a "tsk" sound: "You, you always bring up the father to talk about things, don't you have any ideas?"

Xu Ruyi waited for her to ask this question, and she replied: "According to the usual practice, the eldest son should be established. Even if the son is young, he should first consider going out, but this is the rule of the previous dynasty. I don't know. What does the emperor think?"

This can be regarded as an expression of opinion to Empress Chen. Even if Empress Chen did not show up, the words could reach her ears.
