Refusing to marry the king of broken sleeves

Chapter 105: Asking the prince to comment on the side concubine of the dignified four princes' mansion, and being punished to go to the kitchen to burn fire and chop wood?

When Ling Ruoyao announced the punishment for Yao Qingru and Su Yuhe, they were immediately unhappy, with expressions of dissatisfaction on their faces.

Su Yuhe was even more annoyed on the spot, frowned and looked at Ling Ruoyao, and said with a cold snort: "Why should the princess punish us to do things in the kitchen?"

The reaction of the two of them was already in her expectation, if they were not angry, she would find it strange.

Always with a calm expression, Ling Ruoyao took a sip of the teacup on the table, and said slowly: "The two side concubines are not strict with their servants, and they allow them to wantonly slander this concubine and destroy this concubine. The reputation of the concubine. Without the secret support of the master, how would the servants dare to be so presumptuous?"

Ling Ruoyao's words made the two of them stunned for a moment, and the expressions on their faces were a little stiff.

Although the two of them did not instigate their subordinates to spread the rumors slandering Ling Ruoyao, but after they knew the rumors were spreading, they did not stop them, and even secretly encouraged the rumors to grow. .

But this can't be used as a reason to punish them to work in the kitchen, right?

They are dignified side princesses, how can they go to the kitchen to do rough work?

It's ridiculous!

Trying to keep herself calm, Yao Qingru looked at Ling Ruoyao, twitched the corners of her mouth, forced a smile, and said in a low voice: "The concubine and sister Yuhe both know that the princess is very angry at the rumors circulating in the mansion, but the princess is also angry. You can’t wrong people at will, can you?”

On the fair and pretty face, there was still a leisurely look, but in the clear and lively eyes, there was a layer of coldness.Ling Ruoyao turned her head and cast her eyes on Yao Qingru, but she didn't say anything immediately, but gave her a good look.

Do you think she was angry at them for a moment?

That being said, there doesn't seem to be much difference, but she has been planning to punish the two for a long time.

This time, with such an opportunity, how could she let it go?Although this opportunity caused her reputation to be affected.

Seeing that Yao Qingru was stared at uncomfortably, Ling Ruoyao said casually this time: "Is Concubine Yao blaming me for wronging you?"

"The concubine dare not." Standing up hastily, Yao Qingru bowed her body with a respectful look, "How dare the concubine blame the princess? It's just that I feel aggrieved."

"Wronged?" Ling Ruoyao raised her delicate eyebrows, showing a surprised look, "Is this concubine treating you badly and making you feel wronged? It seems that in the future, this concubine will have to take extra care of you."

There was a look of resentment on his buried face, Yao Qingru pursed his lips tightly, a trace of hatred flashed in his eyes, and he was thinking in his heart how to excuse himself.

"About the rumors, Chen Qie and Sister Yu He didn't know about it, it was all those servants, behind Chen Qie and Sister Yu He's back, they were gossiping behind their backs."

"If the two side concubines are properly disciplined, how dare those servants be so bold and slander the master behind their backs?"

In a word, Yao Qingru was speechless. He opened his mouth to refute, but finally closed his mouth.

As for Su Yuhe, who was still sitting on the chair, she was not so calm. On her beautiful face, she was already full of anger, and she was about to burn into flames.

She slapped the tea table next to her suddenly, stood up suddenly, and stared at Ling Ruoyao angrily, as if she wanted to scold her for three days and three nights.

"Princess, there are some things that you can't decide! All the big and small things in the palace are decided by the prince. The concubine and sister Yao, no matter how you say it, is the prince who married in the door with a big red sedan chair. It must be the prince who speaks. Otherwise, the concubine will not agree."

Ling Ruoyao was a little surprised, she thought she would argue with her, but she didn't expect that she would bring out Huangfu Yi to suppress her.

Do you think she will be afraid?Even if Huangfu Yi was standing in front of her right now, she would make the same decision.

If these two people are not punished today, they will only get worse in the future, and they will not take her as the princess seriously.

Do you think they can regain control of the entire backyard of the palace after she left the mansion for half a month?

I'm really sorry, she has already returned, but she is the biggest in the backyard of the palace, and they are just side concubines.

Putting away the surprised expression on her face, Ling Ruoyao raised the corners of her rosy lips, with a faint and elegant smile on her lips, and said nonchalantly: "If Su Fangfei feels that this concubine's handling is not appropriate, you can go to see The prince's theory. This concubine believes that the prince will deal with this matter fairly."

Don't think that moving out of Huangfuyi can scare her.

Yao Qingru on the side, after listening to the conversation between the two, secretly calculated in his heart.

Under such circumstances, if she, Su Yuhe and Ling Ruoyao were to rely on their arguments, they would definitely not succeed, and Ling Ruoyao was determined to take this opportunity to punish them.

And the only one who can change Ling Ruoyao's mind is the prince.

After thinking about it, Yao Qingru said aloud: "The prince has always been fair and strict, and will never favor anyone."

"Then concubine Yao means that she is also going to ask the prince for comment?" Ling Ruoyao cast a sideways glance at Yao Qingru while playing with the bracelet on her wrist, and raised her voice slightly.

"I have to trouble the concubine to go with the concubines." Yao Qingru put on a respectful look on his face, but his tone of voice contained dissatisfaction that could not be ignored.

Just glanced at Yao Qingru indifferently, Ling Ruoyao shifted her gaze to Su Yuhe, and asked aloud, "Where's Concubine Su?"

"Hmph." With a cold snort, Su Yuhe said angrily, "Of course we will go together, the princess won't refuse, right?"

Without answering, Ling Ruoyao lifted her sleeves and stood up casually. After glancing at the two of them, she turned her gaze outside the house: "Let's go, go find the prince."

Then, with Caizhi's support, he took the lead to walk outside the house.

***

In the quiet courtyard, Huangfu Yi was standing on the stone steps outside the house, with his hands behind his back, looking at the blue sky above his head, with a serious expression on his face, as if he was thinking about something.

Ye Yuan came out of the room, holding a cup of tea in his hand, and handed it to Huangfu Yi: "My lord, the tea is ready."

Turning his head slightly to look at him, Huangfu Yi took the tea cup he handed over, fiddled with the lid of the tea cup twice, blew on the tea leaves floating on the water, and took a sip.

After covering the lid of the teacup, he turned his gaze to the yard again, and said casually, "Tomorrow is the day of hunting in the paddock. I don't know what kind of prey will be hunted this time."

"My lord is very good at archery, what kind of prey can't be hunted?" Ye Yuan raised the corner of his mouth and said in a low voice.

Huangfu Yi just smiled, didn't make a sound, but was silent for a while before saying: "It doesn't matter if you are good at archery, it's not like you don't take it seriously and you don't like it."

While speaking, a trace of gloom appeared on his handsome and resolute face, and even the deep and narrow phoenix eyes became dim.

In the past 20 years, when did he receive attention?Although he is a prince, he cannot enjoy the love and care of his parents like ordinary children.

His father treated him with all kinds of alienation. He even remembered that when he was young, his father would not even look at him. Sometimes he even wondered whether he was born by his father, and why he would be so indifferent to him. ?

For this reason, he also asked his mother and concubine, but every time the mother and concubine gave him the same answer, they all used "Father takes care of everything every day, and every day is very hard. As a prince, you should be more considerate of your father." Emperor".

But he knew that was not the case.

The same is the prince, the other brothers can enjoy the love and care of the father, only him, only he can't!

Not only that, but he also found that the royal father didn't even want to see the concubine mother. Since he could remember, the royal father seemed to seldom enter the palace of the concubine mother. .Until the death of Concubine Shu, father and emperor rarely set foot in the harem.

Gradually growing up, he no longer cares about these things so much, but hides his feelings deeply, and no longer expresses them easily.

Falling into deep thought, Huangfu Yi suddenly frowned slightly, because there was a burst of noise from outside the courtyard.

His yard has always been quiet and there are few people, and the servants seldom waver in front of his eyes, let alone someone who dares to make such a loud noise.

Handing the teacup in his hand to Ye Yuan, he turned around and walked into the room, sitting on the top seat.

He had just entered the room and sat down when the noisy sound had already entered the courtyard.

A group of people rushed into the yard, Su Yuhe and Yao Qingru exchanged glances, then quickened their steps, walked into the room first, and came in front of Huangfuyi.

Seeing that the two were so impatient to get ahead of her, seeing Huangfu Yi's face, Ling Ruoyao couldn't help but raise the corners of her mouth and sneer with disdain.

Are they acting guilty?Afraid of being preempted by her, they will not be able to excuse themselves?

Ling Ruoyao was not in a hurry, and she still had injuries on her legs, so it was indeed not as good as the two of them's intact bodies.

When she walked into the room, Su Yuhe had already started to accuse her in tears: "My lord, you must be the master for my concubine!"

Huangfu Yi frowned in displeasure, his sharp-edged face was covered with a layer of gloom, he narrowed his phoenix eyes slightly, glanced at everyone, and suddenly felt a severe headache.

He originally thought that as long as the matter in the backyard didn't come to him, and let the three of them fight, he could ignore it. If he could, he wanted to see how they fought.

But at this time, these three women still came to him.

It's all three women in one play, and his Four Princes' Mansion is really putting on a good show every day.

Clearing his throat, Huangfu Yi asked seriously in a low voice, "What happened?"

Su Yuhe, who was always arrogant and short-tempered, now turned into a cute and pitiful little white rabbit in front of Huangfu Yi, accusing her of Ling Ruoyao, the big bad wolf.

"My lord, you must make the decision for my concubine and sister Yao!" Su Yuhe choked up and said, wiping the non-existent tears at the corners of his eyes with a handkerchief, "My concubine... my concubine wants to punish my concubine and my sister Yao The kitchen is lighting a fire and chopping wood!"

Hearing Su Yuhe's words, Huangfu Yi was stunned for a moment, with a strange expression on his face, as if he was holding back a smile, but also seemed to be somewhat annoyed.

Her eyes glanced at Ling Ruoyao casually, but she saw that she was always indifferent, and it was fine if she didn't salute him, but she sat down on her own.

For the sake of her unhealed leg injury, he didn't care too much about her.

He didn't expect that this woman dared to punish the two of them to go to the kitchen to burn fire and chop wood. Wasn't she afraid that the two of them would unite to deal with her?

Or is she not afraid at all?

Is it because he doesn't care about his backyard too much?If Su Yuhe and Yao Qingru hadn't come to him to comment on such wonderful things, I'm afraid he would be the last to know about them.

It seems that in the future, he will have more to do with you in the backyard of his palace.

Seeing that Huangfuyi didn't make a sound, his face was still calm, and there was no reaction at all, Su Yuhe became a little dissatisfied, and quickly winked at Yao Qingru.

Receiving Su Yuhe's gaze, Yao Qingru nodded calmly, then looked at Huangfuyi, leaned forward and said: "My lord, my concubine understands that everything in this backyard must be decided by the princess, but if you really want to talk about it , this entire palace, is it up to the prince to decide?"

Withdrawing his gaze towards Ling Ruoyao, Huangfu Yi glanced at the two of them, his gaze was clear and without any extraneous expression.

Since the two side concubines got married and entered the family, he rarely had any contact with them. It was just that the mansion had raised two more idlers. Naturally, there was no more affection between them.

He could just ignore this matter and let the three of them fight to the death, but at this moment, he was very curious, why did this woman, Ling Ruoyao, punish the two of them for cooking water and chopping firewood?The field was punished by fire.

Putting on a serious expression, Huangfu Yi cleared his throat, stopped Su Yuhe from sobbing, and then said: "Tell me, why did the princess send you two to boil water and chop firewood?"

The expressions of the two changed suddenly, and after looking at each other again, Yao Qingru took a deep breath secretly, showing a look of grievance, and said: "The prince doesn't know something. In the past two days, there have been rumors in the mansion that... the princess is hooking up with you outside. Fucked another man."

When she said this, she quietly looked at Huangfu Yi's face, seeing him showing a look of surprise, she knew that the effect she wanted had been achieved.

The lord was really surprised by this matter, and if he thinks about it, he will investigate this matter thoroughly.

Although this is just a rumor, it will not be groundless, and there is always some basis.

In this way, even if Ling Ruoyao cannot be brought down in one fell swoop, at least the prince can be suspicious of her.

After glancing at Huangfu Yi, she glanced at Ling Ruoyao out of the corner of her eye, but saw that she always looked leisurely and composed, and did not show any dissatisfaction or panic.

I was a little surprised in my heart, but Yao Qingru still didn't show any strangeness, she always had an aggrieved expression, and continued: "Afterwards, the princess also found out who made the rumor, it was a girl named Cui'er in sister Yuhe's yard. After slapping Tweety [-] times, she was punished and sent to the laundry room. Not only that, the princess wanted to blame the concubine and sister Yuhe for the rumor, saying that the concubine and concubine This kind of thing happened because of lax discipline of the subordinates. The concubine is really wronged."

Although he didn't know much about the affairs in the backyard, the struggle between women was just as it was said.

This Cui'er is a girl in Su Yuhe's yard, she dares to spread rumors about the princess, if no one supports her behind her back, how can she, a slave, have such courage?

And Yao Qingru and Su Yuhe have always been close, they are often together, she will not be unaware.

This is an obvious thing, and the two of them dare to shout out their injustice.

Do you think he will show favoritism, or do you think he is easy to deceive?Think he won't know the truth?

Although he was aware of the struggle scene between the three women, Huangfu Yi did not tell the truth, but became interested in the content of the rumor.

The princess hooked up with another man outside?

This is an ugly rumor. If this rumor is true, wouldn't he be cuckolded?

"This girl named Cui'er is also really bold. How dare she speak badly about the princess behind her back. The princess seduces men outside?" Huangfu Yi said, turning his gaze to Ling Ruoyao, "Princess, is this true?"

Sensing Huangfu Yi's gaze, Ling Ruoyao squinted at him, and threw him a slash, and couldn't help but slander in her heart, saying that it was all rumors, and he even asked her if it was true or not, that there was something wrong with his head. Are you sick?

If she really cheated on Hong Xing, would she obediently go back home with him?She had already gone far away with her concubine.

There was an elegant smile on her rosy lips, and Ling Ruoyao said disapprovingly: "My lord also believes that these are false rumors? Isn't your lord always clear about right and wrong?"

Hearing what she said, Huangfu Yi raised his eyebrows, pulled his beautiful thin lips, and said casually: "Although it is a rumor, it may not be groundless."

After hearing Huangfuyi's words, Yao Qingru and Su Yuhe, who were left alone, immediately realized that their chance had come.

Su Yuhe didn't wipe the corners of her eyes with the handkerchief anymore, but put on a cautious look, and said in a low voice: "It seems to be because of... a red spot on the princess's neck."

Red spots on the neck?

Huangfu Yi was stunned for a moment, as if he remembered something in his mind, he immediately understood it.

And just when he was meditating secretly, he felt a cold and resentful gaze, staring at him fiercely all the time, Huangfu Yi raised his head, and met Ling Ruoyao's cannibalistic gaze as expected.

As a result, he became more convinced of his guess.

Withdrawing her gaze from looking at Huangfu Yi, Ling Ruoyao turned her gaze to Su Yuhe, put on a casual look, and said seemingly unintentionally: "I remember that there seemed to be only two people who saw the red spot on my neck yesterday. A side concubine, and the girls who follow the two side concubines? At that time, my concubine also clearly said that the red spots on my neck were bitten by insects."

When speaking, Ling Ruoyao deliberately emphasized the word "worm", gnashing her teeth, and cast her eyes on Huangfu Yi.

Huangfu Yi's heart suddenly became dissatisfied, and a layer of gloom appeared on Jun Yi's face.

How dare this woman call him a bug!What a fight!

After eating her twice yesterday, he left a hickey on her neck on a whim, but he didn't think that he would make such a thing like this.

But it was quite exciting, the princess actually wanted to send the two side concubines to the kitchen to burn fire and chop wood!

What Ling Ruoyao said made Yao Qingru and Su Yuhe's faces change a bit. They wanted to continue pretending to be pitiful and sympathetic in front of Huangfuyi, but at this moment, they didn't know what to say.

The people present at that time were indeed those people Ling Ruoyao said.

Caizhi will not slander her master everywhere, the rest are only the two of them and the maid who accompanied her.Whether it's the anger and dissatisfaction shown by the two of them unintentionally, or gossiping with their girl, they can't get away from it.

"You two side concubines, do you have anything to say?" Seeing that the two of them were silent, Ling Ruoyao said again, her tone was a bit cold.

The faces of the two became ugly, but neither of them admitted defeat, they still looked at Huangfu Yi with a delicate and pitiful look.

Su Yuhe blinked her beautiful eyes, seeing that she was about to shed tears in the next second, and said with a choked voice, "My lord, you must seek justice for my concubine and elder sister Yao! The concubine doesn't know, it's all That girl Tweety is chewing her tongue."

On this matter, he still agrees with Ling Ruoyao's approach.

If at this time he made the decision for the two of them and punished Ling Ruoyao, wouldn't that just prove the truth of the rumor in disguise?In this way, his green hat must be worn.

Although he knew that there was no green hat, the red spot on Ling Ruoyao's neck was stamped by him, and he was the worm in her mouth.

After weighing the matter, he said aloud: "I know the general situation of the matter. Concubine Su, Cui'er is from your yard. As the master, you can't even discipline the servants in your yard well. You Are you ashamed to say that you have been wronged? Concubine Yao, you are also to blame! Knowing that Concubine Su is wrong, but not correcting and stopping it, you are also guilty!"

"My lord!"

Both of them were shocked, and looked at him in surprise, with an expression of disbelief on their beautiful faces.

They never expected that the prince would believe Ling Ruoyao's words so easily instead of choosing to believe the two of them.

Didn't the prince suspect Ling Ruoyao at all?Or does the lord know what's going on with the red spot on her neck?Do you know they are spreading rumors?

They really wished that wasn't the case.

"Just do what the princess said. The two of you will go to the kitchen to light a fire and chop wood, as a reflection for yourself."

Huangfu Yi's words completely shocked the two of them, and they were stunned.Both of them couldn't believe their ears, they couldn't believe it was true.

While reeling, Su Yuhe fell to the ground, but turned her eyes to Ling Ruoyao, glaring at her fiercely, with that posture, she wanted to eat her alive.

Ling Ruoyao graciously let her stare at him without showing any displeasure.

From the very beginning, she didn't think that Huangfu Yi would speak for them.How could he cuckold himself?
