Merchant's daughter is not a concubine

Chapter 347 Shooting yourself in the foot

Concubine Chen's mind was buzzing with what they said: "Second brother, don't talk about it anymore. The side concubine is in charge, and the son is the one with power. What's the point of talking about it now. You didn't come to Beijing to complain. Bar?"

Gu Shi also felt that it was not the time to complain: "Actually, this is the case. In addition to settling down in Beijing, we also want to find a marriage for Miao Miao, so I will leave it to you."

Princess Chen is in a bad mood: "You... what are you talking about? You are parents, how can you entrust your marriage to me!"

"It's not because you know a lot of people in Shangjing, otherwise why would we call you." Gu Shi said.

"You are looking for it in Yuecheng..."

"How can I find it in Yuecheng?" Second Master Ning's face turned blue: "You don't know, since that dead girl got married, a lot of old men have come to propose marriage and said they want to take her to be a concubine, and the old bustard came over... ...If you can get married in Yuecheng, how can you come to Shangjing?"

Concubine Chen thought secretly that she didn't make it all by herself, she said in a low voice. "Gancheng, which is not far from Yuecheng, should also be found."

"What do you mean?" Second Master Ning was furious: "You mean that my daughter is not even worthy of finding a family in Shangjing?"

"No, no." Concubine Chen waved her hands again and again: "Second brother wants to find someone, but he can be called an official media."

"Can you want someone introduced by the official media?" Ning Erye said: "It's not a poor scholar or a merchant! Don't think that if you live in Shanghai, a scholar will not be poor, and a merchant will not be low."

Concubine Chen broke into cold sweat when she heard this, and her face turned red with anger: "Second brother and sister-in-law, look at the fourth girl, she is 19 years old. To put it bluntly, she is an old... girl! What kind of family do you want? And We are also merchants, aren't we?"

Ning Miao's eyes turned red: "Auntie, you are so biased! I found a concubine for the fifth girl to be her, but instead of me, let me marry a poor scholar!"

Princess Chen is about to collapse!It's as if she was the one who rushed to bring Ning Qing into Beijing, as if she was the one who pushed for the position of concubine!
Jing Wen, who was always with Princess Chen, couldn't stand it anymore, and said coldly: "At the beginning, the concubine Shi Zi was brought into the mansion as a concubine."

"Then let me find a rich family to be my concubine! One day I will climb up!" Ning Miao said confidently.

Concubine Chen's face turned blue and white, and she was about to cry from anger.Jingwen said anxiously: "You have to go, find it yourself! Anyway, the princess will not be a matchmaker!"

These four girls are so capable of acting as demons!Not to mention introducing it to a wealthy family, even ordinary people might get into trouble!

"When will it be your turn to speak, a lowly servant girl!" Second Master Ning was furious, and looked at Princess Chen again: "It's just for you to introduce her."

Princess Chen was already crying: "You know, I'm not favored. I'm not good at socializing. In Shangjing, I don't even know a lady I know well. How can I find someone? Anyway...Second brother, you rest Think about it! If you don’t go back to Yuecheng, buy a house to live in as soon as possible. If you don’t know the market, I’ll ask Mei Niang to look it up for you.”

Mei Niang is the shopkeeper of Princess Chen's small embroidery shop in Shangjing, and she was Princess Chen's maid.

"Buying a house..." Second Master Ning frowned.

Of course they wanted to settle down in Shangjing, but they were reluctant to spend their few 10 taels of silver.Originally, they wanted to wait for Ning Miao to marry into a rich family and let Ning Miao's husband's family pay for them to buy it.

"Where did we get the money?" Gu said.

Princess Chen frowned: "Didn't you just split up? Didn't you have 45 taels of silver?"

"Here's the silver. If you use one tael, you will lose one tael. It's not like you. You have monthly money." Gu said.

Concubine Chen's eyes darkened. With so much money in their hands, they were still crying poorly in front of them!

"Since the eldest sister asked Mei Niang to find a house for us, I will leave the matter of the house to you." Gu said immediately.

Second Master Ning also looked at her.The husband and wife waited anxiously for Princess Chen to agree, but they didn't intend to take the money out.

Concubine Chen's eyes went dark again, she was almost aggrieved to death.But thinking of Second Master Ning asking her to find someone else for Ning Miao, she gritted her teeth and said, "Okay, I'll find a house for Second Brother. But Miao Miao's marriage is really helpless. You settle down first, how many months do you live?" Now that the situation is clear, let the official media find it.”

Second Lord Ning and Mrs. Gu were a little dissatisfied, but they had no choice but to let go when they thought that Princess Chen promised to buy a house for them.After all, Princess Chen is so cowardly, she just shakes her head and doesn't know, so she can't find any good door.

"Guest officer, do you want to order?" At this time Xiao Er knocked on the door.It's lunchtime now.

Mrs. Gu opened the door, took the menu card, and looked back at Princess Chen: "Big sister, are you still eating? Or go back to Prince Chen's mansion to eat?"

This means that she is afraid that people will eat her up!
Chen Wangfei was eager to leave, and said with a sneer: "Second brother, sister-in-law, you can eat, I will go back to the house first."

"Then I won't give it away." Gu said with a smile.

Princess Chen left like her tail was on fire.

Concubine Chen was still in the mood to eat, so she immediately went to her small embroidery shop, went to find Mei Niang, and asked Mei Niang to help the second-entry house in the not-so-prosperous West District.

After a confession, he returned home.

When he returned to Jingxinyuan, he didn't even eat the rice, and took out 5 taels of silver, and asked Jingsi to send it to Mei Niang.

The money was given by Ning Qing to Princess Chen.After Ning Qing entered the mansion, seeing that she had no money, she gave Princess Chen 20 taels and asked her to buy whatever she liked.If there is anything that is out of reach or not thoughtful, you can ask Ning Qing for it.

Jing Si took the money, her expression was very bad, but Princess Chen is the master, so it is not easy to refute.He said: "Princess, no matter what, the money was given by the concubine Shizi. If you spend such a large amount of money all at once, you'd better tell her."

"You're right. Look at me... I'm almost dizzy from the anger of Second Brother and the others!" Princess Chen rubbed her temples, and said helplessly, "And let them go to Beijing...I have to tell Girl Qing too."

Princess Chen went to Biyunxuan.

In the past, his Biyunxuan couldn't even be approached by outsiders.But since Ning Qing became pregnant, Song Zhuo was very tolerant, allowing Princess Chen and Song Qiwu to come and sit for a while when he was not around.But Song Qimei was warned by Song Zhuo not to approach her!

Seeing that Song Zhuo treated her differently, Song Qimei felt aggrieved and heartbroken.Crying in the room all day long, Song Zhuo looked at Song Qiwu but ignored her. It must be the little business girl who was picking apart people, deliberately suppressing and humiliating her!

Ning Qing was sitting in the small hall, and Zi Lu was playing with the snow cake not far away.Ever since she became pregnant, Song Zhuo strictly forbade the ice cake from getting close to Ning Qing.

"Shi Zifei, the princess is here." Chunjuan smiled and opened the curtain.

"Mother Concubine." Ning Qing smiled and stood up to sit down.

"Hey, sit down quickly. It's been three months, and it's still the same." Princess Chen glanced at Ning Qing's belly as she said, "But your belly is a little bigger than ordinary people."

"My baby is growing well." Ning Qing said as she touched her belly.He sat down again and wrapped himself in fur.

Concubine Chen wanted to touch Ning Qing when she looked at it, but remembering the last time she wanted to touch Ning Qing's stomach, she was stared at by Song Zhuo, and she never dared to touch Ning Qing again.And when Song Zhuo comes back, no one else can come in.

"Have you eaten, Miss Qing?" Princess Chen said.

"Half an hour ago, after eating half a bowl of bird's nest porridge, I was lazy and didn't want to eat it anymore." Hui Ping complained a little, "There are all kinds of meat porridge, vegetarian porridge, and sweet porridge in the small kitchen. Nutritious variety Soup is also prepared."

But Ning Qing said: "I don't want to eat porridge today. I want to eat rice! It tastes good when the bacon is steamed on top!"

"Yes, come here immediately." Hui Ping responded with a smile.

The servant girl who had been alert for a long time was listening outside, and had already arrived at the small kitchen to scoop steamed rice with bacon, and put two side dishes on the small round table.

Ning Qing took two mouthfuls and was full.The maid cleaned up all the dishes.Ning Qing said she wanted to drink fruit juice again, and the spring rolls came up immediately.

Anyway, whatever she wants to eat, she will be there at any time.The small kitchen is stocked with all kinds of her favorite and often eaten foods day and night.But there were so many things in the whole kitchen, Ning Qing only ate a little, and poured out the rest.It has to be fresh the next day.

Princess Yuehe, Princess Duanling, and Song Qihui, three married girls, also came back to visit Ning Qing and saw the way Ning Qing ate.I was so envious that my heart burst into sour water.

Ning Qing's marriage to Song Zhuo, a stunningly talented and beautiful man, has already made people jealous. If Song Zhuo still supports her and pampers her like this, other women can only envy and hate her when they see it!
Princess Yuehe said to Concubine Sun: "If it wasn't for my brother, I would have fought to the death!"

Concubine Sun sighed: "If you fight with your life, they don't need you! Even if you are lucky enough to marry him, his arrogant personality is better than your status in his heart now."

Princess Yuehe rolled her eyes angrily: "Am I that bad?"

"It's not that you are bad, but..."

"I'm not good enough?" Princess Yuehe raised her eyebrows and said depressedly: "That's right. Although I am the princess, I'm not very outstanding, not even Cheng Yuhua. Ning Qing is a lady of destiny! Ordinary people like us are comparable. Brother Shizi, you should be worthy of such an unreachable fairy."

Concubine Sun sighed and shook her head with a smile: "It's not like that. Rather, only the Imperial Concubine has an appetite for him."

It has nothing to do with talent or wealth, or noble birth and fate.He simply only likes Ning Qing.In the past, when Ning Qing was as humble as dust, he was willing to leave his position as a prince to follow her.

……

It is said that when Princess Chen saw that Ning Qing wanted to eat, she didn't dare to talk about Second Master Ning.

After Ning Qing finished eating, she said, "Go out today and buy a longevity lock for the child, see if you like it or not."

"Ah, it's very cute." Ning Qing looked forward to it and was happy when she saw that it was for the baby. "My concubine has been on the street for a long time, so she brought this back? Don't hide anything for fun."

"I'm going to be a mother, and I'm still so playful." Princess Chen joked, and said, "Actually, I wanted to buy other things, but I ran into your second uncle's family in front of the silver building."

When Ning Qing heard that Second Master Ning's family had come, she felt a little disgusted in her heart, "They have something to do when they come to Beijing."

"Well, they said they wanted to go to Beijing for development. They also asked me to help you find your fourth sister's marriage, but no matter where I looked for it, I refused." Princess Chen said.

No matter how much Ning Qing hated Second Master Ning, that is to say, she broke off her relationship with Second Household. Princess Chen is Second Master Ning's direct sister, so she never asked Princess Chen what to do.

Ning Qing was quite relieved to hear that Princess Chen said she refused.Ning Miao was really disgusting and disgusting to others, if she could not stick to it, she would not stick to it.

"They don't have a house for the time being, so I'll give them a place to live." Princess Chen said. "I just took 5 taels and asked Mei Niang to help find a house."

When Ning Qing heard this, she was in a bad mood.Even if she is stupid, she knows that if the 5 taels of Princess Chen is released, don't expect Second Master Ning to pay it back!
"They are my elder brothers and your second uncle after all. The broken bones are still connected." Princess Chen sighed, her voice miserable.

Ning Qing felt sick and uncomfortable like swallowing a fly.But she remembered that when she first came to Prince Chen's mansion, Princess Chen wanted to give her the best, and didn't want her to suffer any grievances.

Now that Second Lord Ning came to Beijing, he couldn't even enter the gate of Prince Chen's mansion. Princess Chen must feel the same way!I don't want to see Second Master Ning being treated so indifferently. After all, Second Master Ning is her biological elder brother.

Ning Qing only said: "I gave the money to Concubine Mu, just to make Concubine Mu spend it happily. Since you are so happy, use it like this."

Princess Chen was overjoyed and nodded: "I just think, if you can help, please help."

Ning Qing said again: "Long poverty is hard to care about. If they can't gain a foothold in Shangjing and rely on you to help them survive, why not go back to Yuecheng?"

Princess Chen said: "That's what I said too... They insist on making a foray here, but we can't drive them away."

"That's not it. How can I say that the gate of Shangjing is wide open, and the people of Tiansheng, who are serious and honest, have no reason not to enter Beijing." Ning Qing's tone was dispensable. "It's just Ning Miao's marriage. It's better for the mother and concubine not to interfere. As the saying goes, it's hard to be a matchmaker. Ning Miao's personality is worse than Song Qimei's. Any guy she introduces to her will be a scam. If she doesn't get it, she will be a double-faced person."

Concubine Chen nodded: "Of course I know." If she didn't know, she wouldn't try hard to reject the second room. "It's just...they're gaining a foothold in Shangjing, so just leave them alone, girl."

She wanted Ning Qing to persuade Song Zhuo not to embarrass Second Master Ning.

"Anyway, I can't see it, as long as it doesn't fall under my nose." Ning Qing said.

"Of course not." Princess Chen said. "Don't say that I will persuade them. Even if I don't persuade them, I dare not repeat the shock given to them by the prince last time."

But as soon as Princess Chen finished speaking, Zi Wan walked in with a green face: "Concubine Shizi, the Eldest Young Master and the Eldest Young Madam have returned from outside. They also brought Second Master Ning and Ning Miao's family with them."

Ning Qing's expression darkened.Princess Chen staggered even more, she almost fainted, she was so angry and angry that she was about to shed tears.She had just assured Ning Qing that Second Master Ning's family would not fall under their noses, and Second Master Ning would bump into him in the next moment!

"I'll go and have a look." Ning Qing stood up while supporting her stomach.

"Concubine Shi Zi, no, we can wait for Shi Zi to come back to discuss the big things." Hui Ping said urgently.

"That's right, the prince is coming back soon." Zi Wan said.

"Don't be afraid, I'll go take a look and ask what they want to do?" Ning Qing's face turned blue.Second master Ning came back with Song Xian, what is it?
Ning Qing just walked to the door, and saw Song Zhuo coming: "Cousin."

Song Zhuo smiled, walked over, and took her into his arms: "Qingqing is so good, I know my cousin is back." As he spoke, he kissed her and touched her belly. "Is the baby good?"

"Good boy." Ning Qing rubbed her arms in his arms: "I'll go ahead and have a look. Song Xian brought the people from the second room into the house."

Song Zhuojun's face sank: "I'll go and have a look."

Ning Qing said, "I'll go too."

Seeing that she had been nesting in the house for a day, Song Zhuo took her little hand and went out together.

Song Xian took Second Master Ning's family of four before they entered the gate. Before reaching the main hall, they were blocked by Song Zhuo and Ning Qing.

In the inn, since Princess Chen left, Song Xian had a plan in mind.Isn't this Ning Miao rushing to become a concubine?After all, she is Ning Qing's elder sister, and being his concubine, her face is so slapped!
Ning Miao saw that Song Xian was not as handsome as Song Zhuo, and he was not a son of the world, but a son of the bastard, so she was originally unwilling.But she thought that Prince Chen had always favored Song Xian, and she didn't believe it. With her ingenuity, she couldn't help Song Xian win the position of son after entering the door!

At that time, she will be the concubine of the crown prince!
Ning Miao thought beautifully, she thought Lan Ruoying was dead the whole time!
Song Zhuo and Ning Qing appeared, and Ning Miao was so jealous that Ning Qing was almost insane when she saw Ning Qing dressed luxuriously and hugging her.And Song Zhuo made her a little scared, but she thought that Song Xian would support her now!Moreover, there is more than one Song Xian, and Prince Chen also has to support her!Because she belongs to Song Xian, and Prince Chen loves Song Xian the most!
Ning Miao and Ning Erye suddenly felt that they had two big backers, and they were no longer afraid of Song Zhuo!

"Who let you in?" Song Xian glanced at Second Master Ning and Ning Miao.

"I let you in, why do you have an opinion?" Song Xian smiled and said: "Although you are the son of the world, I am also a serious master, so why not bring a relative in? They are also relatives. How can the concubine Shi Zi come from the Ning family, how come she has climbed a high branch and doesn't recognize her relatives?"

"You brought them back, you didn't just recognize some relatives, did you?" Song Zhuo's cold phoenix eyes flashed jokingly.

"That's right. This cousin Ning Miao is as beautiful as a flower, and she is too old to find someone. My son decided to take her as a good concubine. Her parents also agreed." Song Xian said, his face Quite impressive.

"As a concubine, you don't know that she is the cousin of the dignified concubine, are you humiliating on purpose?" Song Zhuo said. "Would it be bad for Qingqing's reputation if the news got out?"

"Third brother, how can you talk like that?" Song Xian became more and more complacent, which was exactly his purpose. "I didn't think too much about it. I just wanted to make a beautiful concubine. The younger siblings are cousins, not her parents. Their parents have agreed, so why should she stop it!"

"Okay, since you want to establish it, just do it." Song Zhuo said: "Anyway, this relative will not be recognized by this family. Qingfeng, Qinghe, go outside and make an announcement. The eldest son wants to establish the first cousin of the imperial concubine. As a concubine. But we will not recognize this cousin and second wife!"

Song Xian smiled indifferently.

Because he came back all the way, he sent someone outside to say that he wanted to make Ningqing's cousin a concubine.The people in Shangjing started talking in low voices.

Song Xian asked people to say that after Ning Qing married a noble family, she stopped kissing poor relatives.Even the second uncle, who is a direct relative, dragged his family to Beijing, not to mention seeing each other, but he couldn't even enter the door!I called the door yesterday and was kicked out by the servant.

But the common people don't believe it, because Ning Qing is a noble daughter who has done so many things that benefit the common people, how can she be ruthless to her relatives?
Song Xian is not in a hurry, as long as there are too many rumors, his reputation will slowly deteriorate!And Ning Qing really doesn't recognize Erfang!

Who knew that before Song Xian's plan had even started, Song Zhuo made people reveal what Ning Miao and Erfang had done.

What is the second house headed, the dowry is not even 50 taels.Even Song Zhuo wanted to deduct a copper coin from the dowry gift!Ning Qing's ten miles of red makeup was earned by her righteous brother and herself.If it weren't for the pressure, the dowry gift would not come back as a dowry.

Also, at the banquet, Ning Miao actually played the Jiaozi tune in front of many elders!On the days when Ning Qing was hired, she acted like a prostitute.After being scolded, Song Zhuo took Ning Miao as his concubine by desperately pushing her.

Before the cousin got started, the cousin rushed in and took the lead to become a concubine. What kind of sisters are these, she is simply a vixen and an enemy, with bad intentions at all!

It is also said that Song Zhuo gave 300 million taels of silver to the Ning family.The so-called nurturing grace of the past ten years can be considered complete.

The second wife of the Ning family didn't stay in Yuecheng properly, or let Ning Miao marry far away, but she came to Beijing again, she really wanted to be rich and rich, and she was crazy!

And that Song Xian, marrying such a disgusting and aggressive enemy as Ning Miao, deliberately targeted Ning Qing!I don't think this Ning Miao is the most disgusting!This is all easy to say!
Song Xian soon knew the public opinion outside, and was so angry that he fell on his back.

Lan Ruoying said with a gloomy face: "I just said it's not worrying! You want to get it back!"

At the inn, Lan Ruoying disagreed with Ning Miao's entry.Which woman would like her husband to get a woman to get started!
"I just want to add trouble to Song Zhuoningqing because they are not worried!" Song Xian gritted his teeth.

"Hehe, it's true that you've added trouble, but it's for yourself!" Lan Ruoying sneered.

Song Xian glared at her, and rushed to the small courtyard that had just been arranged for Ning Miao's family. The guards around Song Xian had already held down Ning Miao and Second Master Ning's family and punched and kicked them.

Ning Miao and Ning Erye were beaten up and screamed. In the confusion, Ning Miao only felt a pain in her mouth, and the ground collapsed, and ten teeth that had just been filled fell out again!

Ning Miao's eyes went dark, and she passed out immediately!
Song Xian personally led the guards, dragged Ning Miao's family of four to the door, and threw them all out.

The common people gathered around curiously: "This, isn't it the second bedroom of the Ning family who is the most shameless?"

Song Xian also yelled: "My son was almost deceived by you!"

This is to tell the people that he didn't intentionally make enemies for Ning Qing, and his vision is not that bad!

At this moment, Song Zhuo, who was dressed neatly, came out with a magnificent smile on his face: "It turns out that elder brother is not so affectionate and loyal to Ning Miao."

"Of course!" Song Xian said angrily, "I just want to accept her as a concubine because I see her beauty. What kind of feelings are there?"

Song Zhuo snorted, smiled meaningfully, turned and went out.

Song Xian was stunned, but still hadn't reacted.The people around exploded again.

One said: "It turns out that this concubine was established casually! Even if Ning Miao's family did not do anything shameless, if they are of good character, they should not be established as concubines!"

"That's not right! Even if Ning Miao is too old to get married, her parents have agreed, and she should not have been appointed! Knowing that she is the concubine's cousin, she did not want to slap the concubine in the face. ?"

"It's not that I love you to death, it's her! This was intentional!"

"No, play against!"

"By the way, this eldest son really... only plays such small tricks all day long, what's the point! He's petty! No wonder he can't be a prince!"

Song Xian almost vomited blood!This Song Zhuo actually dug one trap after another for him to drill into!

This time Song Xian really shot himself in the foot!
Later, Prince Chen finally returned to the mansion in Qiu Lie. When he heard Song Xian doing stupid things again, he was so angry that he rushed into Song Xian's residence and kicked Song Xian over.

"Song Xian, look at the stupid things you did!"

Song Xian was kicked until blood came out, Lan Ruoruo heard the news, fell down on his knees with a plop in fright, and cried, "Father, please calm down..."

Song Xian was so aggrieved that he wanted the Prince Chen to come back to vent his anger on him, but he was beaten up by the Prince Chen first, and he was wronged and angry and said: "Father, you said that you let me be your son... ..."

"If you want to be a prince, then work hard!" Chen Wang said coldly.

"I...have worked very hard...the father and the king don't help the child..."

"You work so hard to become like this? Do you think this king is not helping you enough?" Chen Wang said: "I will ask you to be named on the charge of confusing the concubines! I have brought you to social parties in the past few years and given you all the resources. This king has paved the way for you, and you can fall into the ditch! Still doing such a stupid thing today!"

Song Xian was so scolded that his neck shrank: "I also want to ruin his reputation..."

Chen Wang was annoyed and laughed: "You have been thinking about the reputation of bad people and the innocence of people all day long, why don't you do something practical? Song Zhuo took a private salt case one by one, why didn't you go and grab it? Dongyang Mansion The surrounding Qinglian sect is bewitching people's hearts, the emperor is annoyed, Song Zhuo is actively preparing, why don't you think about it?"

Song Xian's face froze for a moment. He also wanted to grab the private salt case, but Uncle Huang handed it over to Song Zhuo.Isn't the Qinglian sect only teaching groups? If you are not dead or injured, what can happen!Something really happened, just send troops to destroy it!
Chen Wang snorted coldly, turned and left.

Lan Ruoying's face changed slightly: "Father, is this disappointed in you?"

"How could it be! My concubine said that my father loves me the most. And I grew up next to him, and my love and affection are different! What is Song Zhuo!" Song Xian said with a livid face.

He will never admit that he is inferior to Song Zhuo!It's Uncle Huang who is eccentric!All good cases were given to Song Zhuo!And the imperial grandmother was there to protect her!

And him?He is no worse than Song Zhuo!He used to handle all the cases in Qizhou!His father often praised him too!
This is not his land, it's just that he can't use it!He will prove that he is better than Song Zhuo.

"Sir, the No. [-] Martial Arts Scholar on October [-]th will have a grand banquet!" Lan Ruoying said suddenly.

Song Xian's eyes lit up.October [-]th is the imperial examination for the champion of martial arts!Wu Zhuangyuan's palace test was not in the palace, but in the martial field!
The best martial arts will naturally win the champion!After the champion is selected, there is still the link of accepting the challenge from your noble son.

In the past three years, he has participated in every year, and every year he can win the champion and win the first martial arts.

He must also participate in today's quiz banquet!And he has to force Song Zhuo to participate, as long as he wins Song Zhuo, all honors will be recovered!
