Sometimes the palace is sunny

Chapter 9 The Concubine Room
"Girl, Xie Feng'an has five concubines in total, and this time four of them were sent here at once. Among them, An Niannian is the oldest and most senior. She used to be the maidservant next to Mrs. Laohou, and she is proficient in literary and ink. You entered Xie Feng'an In the second year of the family, Xie Fengan came back from Nanzhili to marry Su Yaoer as a concubine. Mrs. Hou called you over to talk, and when you came back, you brought An Niannian back. She was bought from outside, and she was in the mansion. He has no foundation and has always been honest. After a year, Brother Duan was born. Brother Duan is also Xie Fengan's eldest son.

"Although An Niannian can read and write, she is not as good as Su Yaoer, who was born in Qinhuai. After An Niannian became pregnant, Xie Feng'an only doted on Su Yaoer, and even took Su Yaoer to the academy in Nanzhili. Madam Hou said He also carried Xia He to be Xie Fengan's roommate. Xia He belonged to Liu Sui's family, who was in charge of the vegetation in the garden. She was pregnant, and Xie Fengan didn't bring any of them when she went to Nanzhili, but when she came back, she brought back a few "confidantes". The government was dismissed.

"In order to make Xie Fengan feel at ease, Mrs. Hou gave Liu Tianxing to him again. Liu Tianxing's father is the steward of Ning'an Hou's mansion in the north village. She has a bit of a naive personality. Xie Fengan has liked it for more than a year, but she also lost it. On one side, she has not given birth so far.

"The other one is Cui Jinniang. Her father is a Juren, so she is considered a good concubine."

Speaking of Cui Jinniang, a thin layer of anger appeared on A Chi's face, and his tone became more impolite:
"Cui Jinniang's father, Cui Juren, used to be instructed by the master. After winning the imperial examination, he failed many times in the Jinshi examination. On the contrary, he almost lost the family business. During the imperial examination the year before last, Cui Juren brought his family into Yanjing. However, Cui Juren was sick herself, so Cui Jinniang borrowed the connection between her past relationship with the master and begged the girl. Miss, you asked Chuiyun to treat her father's illness, and rented a house for them in Yanjing. As a result, that Cui Jinniang used the excuse of visiting the girl to come to the door from time to time, but she hooked up with Xie Fengan and became adulterous with Xie Fengan. She was three months pregnant and knelt down to beg the girl to be fulfilled...Miss, what did the servant say wrong?"

A Chi was cursing in her heart Cui Jinniang, who would avenge her kindness, and Xie Fengan, a lecherous and hungry ghost, when she saw her girl staring at her, she became at a loss again.

Her girl is gentle and kind, even if she only said to Cui Jinniang, "I've been poor for a long time, it's like a drowning person grabbing a floating reed to get out, it's really pitiful", and she would never allow herself to speak like this .

Zhao Surui was aroused when he heard that, and stared Shen Shiqing's eyes completely round. His father, the first emperor, and his mother, the queen mother, had a very deep relationship, and the only two sons were his elder brother of the first prince and him, his The empress dowager was quite cunning when she was a queen, and she managed the harem like an iron bucket. As the youngest son of the imperial concubine, Zhao Surui only heard about the jealousy among women, but never saw it personally. Such a few women are jealous He really felt a little strange about the excitement.

It was also because he was bored in this village.

He couldn't kill and make decisions, he couldn't even kick the eunuch's ass, and he could only listen to these little things in the backyard to amuse himself.

"And then? Four of the five concubines were sent out. Is it the Qinhuai stunning Su Yao'er or the heroine Cui Jinniang who was left in the mansion?"

A Chi was taken aback by his girl's words, what Qin Huai is stunning, a hero among women...

"It was Su Yao'er who was left in the Ning'an Hou Mansion."

"Oh... Qin Huai's beauty is slightly better than that. This Xie Feng'an is really a womanizer."

Zhao Surui casually played with the brush in his hand, seeing Achi nod repeatedly.

"That's right! Miss, Xie Feng'an is a womanizer!"

Ever since he found out that the Xie family was determined to force his daughter to ask her to come down, and might even kill her, Ah Chi didn't even call him "Uncle", and it was very disrespectful to name the Xie family. Seeing the girl calling Xie Fengan lecherous by name, A Chi also felt bad breath coming out of his heart.

However, Zhao Surui liked her "small-mindedness" of worrying about her master's worries and hating her master's hatred. He had a smile on his face, and he wanted to let A Chi take care of Zhuangzi's affairs for her, so he asked her:
"Then do you think any of these people can be used?"

A Chi thought for a while, and said: "Mr. An is the servant girl by the old lady's side. She has a bit of face around the old lady. Mrs. Xia is the son of the Xie family and has some connections among the servants. Mrs. Liu's father can be regarded as the Marquis of Ning'an." My confidant, as for Mrs. Cui... Mrs. Cui..."

"Among these people, you are most afraid of that house fighter, because she is ruthless enough, generous enough, and shameless enough." Zhao Surui knew what A Chi was thinking without even looking.

A Chi was silent for a moment, and said in a low voice: "She betrayed the girl with revenge, and she has only one character, which is the worst."

"The villain has the usage of the villain. If you want to use them, you must not be afraid of them."

How many real gentlemen were there in the civil and military affairs of the Manchu Dynasty?As for those villains who are only lured by power, lured by money, and deterred by the emperor, once their desire for power and wealth exceeds their fear of the power of the emperor, they can be killed.

Thinking of a few people he had killed, Zhao Surui yawned:

"Go back and see if they have finished crying, and bring them here when they are finished crying."

"Yes, girl."

A Chi went out, Zhao Surui stood up and stretched with Shen Shiqing's body.

On the table were refreshments brought in by Tunan, a plate of sugar crisps baked into golden brown sprinkled with sesame seeds, a plate of walnut kernels with the inner and outer skins removed, a plate of candied dates, and a pot of chrysanthemum tea with a strong aroma.

Zhao Surui glanced at it, and sneered: "That's what a woman raised by a poor family like Shen Sanfei eats."

He casually picked up a candied date, put it in his mouth, ate it, ate two pieces of candy, and drank half a pot of tea. Ren'er clicked and started to eat.

This small Zhuangzi in Ning'an Hou's Mansion is only about the size of four entrances, and it is not half the size of Chaohuayuan. In his eyes, it is a place where you can't even move your buttocks. Such a small place is still stuffed Si Xie Feng'an's concubine came over, plus a dozen of maidservants.

Looking up from the window, the scenery is really lacklustre, Zhao Surui is a little strange, Shen Sanwas living in this kind of place doesn't go out of the gate, so he didn't drive him crazy.

"Crack clap..."

After taking another sip of tea, Zhao Surui felt as if he was surrounded by the newly opened sweet Wei Zi Yao Huang in autumn.

"It's hard for Shen Sanwaste to change ways to make her live a comfortable life. It's a pity that these clever efforts just didn't make her live well."

How can there be any indisputable truth in life?

The momentary safety gained by escaping life is like a thin-bodied porcelain cup, which will be broken if it is broken.

Just as he was thinking about something, Zhao Surui heard faint crying coming in from outside the window, and he casually smashed the cup in his hand:
"Tunan, take someone to watch, anyone who dares to cry again will immediately drag him down and throw him into the river!"

Tunan, who was guarding the door, responded.

Several concubines of Xie Feng'an standing at the gate of the courtyard were startled by the glass thrown towards them, and then heard the stern voice of the always benevolent young lady, they were all at a loss.

Among them, only one woman didn't cry, she looked around and said with a smile: "Sisters, let's go to Zhuangzi, let's listen to my wife's orders, even if I think about the child again, I have to shed tears in my stomach first. "

Hearing this, A Chi suddenly turned his head to look at the woman in the green silk jacket.

The woman just smiled at her and didn't speak.

Putting his arms on the table next to the bed and looking at the eyebrow-eye lawsuit outside, Zhao Surui immediately knew that the extremely kind-looking woman was Cui Jinniang, whom he called "the heroine of women".

Several other people came to see the mistress who was imprisoned in the Zhuangzi outside the city, and they were tempted in their hearts. At first, two parts of their crying were true and eight parts were false. When Cui Jinniang mentioned the child, they remembered that they were forced to separate their flesh and blood. , The tears in the eyes are eighty percent real.

Xia He has always been a bit aggressive, and she was about to cry out on the spot, but her mouth was tightly held down.

An Niannian held her head and whispered in her ear, "Don't listen to Aunt Cui's advice."

Liu Tianxing, who came in last, still wanted to cry, but because no one was carrying her, she was a little scared, so she could only bite her handkerchief.

These women really stopped crying, and Zhao Surui was in a better mood. He stretched out his hand and waved it out of the window: "Let them stand outside the door, A Chi, go to Peifeng and ask her to bring all the things she found out." .”

"Yes, girl."

At noon, the courtyard with no view was covered with sun, and when looking into the house, one could only see a deep, unreal place.

Several women crowded together and stood in a group. After waiting for a while, the door opened wide, and a foot on a satin embroidered shoe stepped out of it.

Seeing Shen Shiqing at first glance, Cui Jinniang couldn't help frowning.

It was still a thin and frail face, and the eyes were still lacquered, but she felt that the "Shen Shiqing" in front of her was the same as the "Shen Shiqing" who looked at her for a moment, and only said "I can do it for myself" and let her be Xie Fengan's concubine. Lady Shen" is different.

On her upper body was an oriental bright woven flower jacket, on her lower body was a goose yellow horse face skirt, her head was undecorated except for a jade pearl hairpin, and her face was devoid of make-up or makeup. out of the room.There was an elm armchair under the eaves, covered with a new chair drape, "Shen Shiqing" stepped over and sat down, her left leg was already on top of her right.
