Concubine Sheng Chong

Chapter 137 How much do you deserve him to treat you like this?

In Yingxia Palace, the atmosphere these past few days has been unusually dignified.

After leaving the inner hall, several maids carrying copper basins and handkerchiefs breathed a sigh of relief.

The Princess Huaishu these days is not like a firecracker, it catches fire at one o'clock!

If you make a slip of the tongue or do a small thing wrong, you will be pulled out to beat the board!

In the past few days, the maids and eunuchs in Yingxia Palace were all trembling, for fear that they would be used as a punching bag by Princess Huaishu.

At this time, on the palace road outside the Yingxia Hall, a woman with gorgeous make-up wearing a red satin cape with peacock pattern came from a distance.

She held the hand stove in her hand, and her Danko-coated fingers slightly exposed in the cloak were like water onions, and her skin was whiter than snow.

There was no emotion in her eyes, and she whispered to A Li beside her, "The winter in Luoyang is really cold, unlike Anxi."

Ah Li was also shivering from the cold. She held back the cold and supported Mu Nan, and asked in a low voice: "Princess, have these hidden stakes in Luoyang been properly arranged? How long are we going to stay in Luoyang?"

How long do you want to stay in Luoyang?
Thinking of this, Mu Nan's heart suddenly sank.

These days, I don't want to leave Luoyang...

Is it for the hidden stake, or for that stern but magnificent man?
She raised her eyes and looked at the dark dripping eaves everywhere in the palace city.

I heard that Luoyang will snow in winter.

But the four seasons in Anxi are always lukewarm, so I want to see the snow in Luoyang.

She lowered her eyes and said in a low voice, "I have my own plans."

Before entering the gate of Yingxia Palace, several sharp-eyed maids trotted over to greet her.

"See Her Royal Highness."

After the salute, a bolder court lady looked at Mu Nan's gentle eyebrows.

She bit her lip, stepped forward and said: "Your Highness, you are here. Our princess has lost her temper for several days. Your Highness always listens to you. Go and persuade her."

Mu Nan smiled, "What is the princess doing? And what jewelry?"

This Princess Huai Shu has a spoiled personality, so it's easy to coax her.

These court ladies looked at each other in blank dismay, as if they were about to say something.

oh?Could it be that there is an inside story?
Mu Nan said softly to them: "If you don't say it now, what if I go in and bump into Princess Huaishu again?"

The bolder court lady hurriedly took another step closer, and said in a low voice: "Our princess is because of the refusal of marriage by Duke Anguo... You don't know, our princess has a deep love for Zhen Guohou."

After finishing speaking, the court lady was busy, so she covered her mouth and said nothing more.

Mu Nan lowered his eyes, but the deep meaning in his eyes became more intense.

Oh?
Didn't expect Princess Huaishu to have such thoughts?
Rejected a marriage?
I have never been like this!
Thinking of the man who wanted to swear to her that he had no second wife made her feel so uncomfortable!

How could such an outstanding man have such a long relationship with a woman from the backyard!
A person like him should be unattainable...

She glanced at Yingxia Palace, the corners of her mouth slightly raised.

Is that Jiang Jinyan?

I'd like to see how much you really deserve him to treat you like this!
After slowly walking into the silent inner hall, she saw that Princess Huai Shu really had a bad complexion.

Princess Huaishu was only wearing a brocade dress made of Yunfei makeup, brocade woven with colorful flowers and flying butterflies, and a pleated moon skirt was tied underneath. At this time, she was leaning obliquely on the imperial concubine bed covered with a thick silver fox mattress.

At the moment, she is listlessly stirring a peony-patterned handkerchief.

The earth dragon in the inner hall had already warmed the inner hall like spring, and Ah Li hurriedly waited for Mu Nan to take off the cloak.

Mu Nan said to the few court ladies who were standing with their hands down: "Go down first, I will talk to the princess."

Feeling relieved, the maids quickly saluted, bowed and retreated.

A Li knew that the princess had something to say, so he bowed and retreated with the maids in his cape.

Huai Shu was no longer in the mood to talk about rouge and gouache with Mu Nan at this moment, she didn't lift her head, she was still staring at the peony pattern handkerchief in her hand.

Mu Nan sat on the jade stool next to the imperial concubine's bed.

The jade stool was also covered with a thick silver fox mattress, which was extremely soft.

Mu Nan looked at her and sighed, "Look at Huai Shu who is depressed every day, no matter how delicate her appearance is, she will turn into a yellow-faced woman."

Huai Shu panicked, and subconsciously stroked her own cheek.

Then she flattened her lips again, "So what about the yellow-faced woman, no one cares..."

Mu Nan thought to himself that Princess Huai Shu really did it for a word of love.

She laughed again and said, "What's the matter? We Huai Shu who came here to ask for marriage are not going to step on the gate of this palace? Why is Huai Shu so worried?"

Huai Shu threw the handkerchief in her hand onto her lap, mist also appeared in her eyes.

Her voice was full of grievances, "Sister Mu, how do you think the Marquis of Zhenguo got married?! How could he just withdraw my marriage..."

Hearing the word "engagement", Mu Nan felt a chill in her heart, but her face was filled with shock and astonishment.

"Sister Huaishu is the golden branch and jade leaf of the Great Zhou Dynasty. Is this Zhen Guohou so stupid?!"

Huai Shu felt even more wronged.

Mu Nan persuaded again: "What's the point of being engaged? After retiring, it means that if you can't let go of that girl, you can just marry her back as a concubine. Why did you refuse your marriage?"

Huai Shu held Mu Nan's hand with red eyes, "They made it clear that they just don't want to talk about this relative...Sister Mu..."

Mu Nan sighed softly, "Which family's daughter has been settled for, and she has actually overwhelmed Huai Shu?"

Hearing this, Huai Shu held her hand with more strength.

She bit her lip and said, "Sister Mu, you have seen her before, she is Jiang Jinyan who sat next to you at the palace banquet last time!"

Mu Nan covered his mouth and whispered, "It's her, I see she is indeed a stunning appearance, no wonder, even Zhen Guohou can't escape from her grasp."

Huai Shu snorted coldly, "When I look at her, she looks like a bit of a fox..."

Mu Nan took her hand and said anxiously: "Now Zhen Guohou's thoughts are all on her, sister Huai Shu, please don't offend her, offending Zhen Guohou's displeasure for nothing."

After hearing this, Huai Shu became even more angry, "It's the same with all sluts, they can seduce a man with just one face! If it wasn't for her seducing someone like Zhen Guohou, how could he be like this?" Confused?!"

Mu Nan said again: "Anyway, it's just an engagement, it's better for sister Huai Shu to spend more time with Miss Jiang..."

Huai Shu glared at Mu Nan and said, "Sister Mu! How can I lower myself to associate with her?!"

Mu Nan smiled, "Her Majesty Zhen has a wonderful person like her on his heart. Sister Huai Shu shouldn't be close to her? Otherwise, how could there be a chance?"

Huai Shu's heart moved, "Sister Mu, you mean get rid of her?"

Mu Nan tapped her forehead lightly, "Why does it take so much effort to get rid of her, as long as she is unable to compete with our Huai Shu."

Huai Shu was stunned, and then sneered, "Didn't she rely on that face? Then I will destroy her flowery face! I want to take a look, without that enchanting face What does she use to seduce men!"

Mu Nan frowned and covered his mouth, "Is it wrong to do this..."

Huai Shu softened in an instant, looked at Mu Nan pitifully and said: "Sister Mu, I know you will definitely help Huai Shu, look at Huai Shu being slapped in the face by such a fox, sister Mu, you You won't let Huai Shu be bullied by her, will you?"

After these days, Huai Shu also learned that Anxi is rich in poisons, and if she wants to ruin Jiang Jinyan's face, it is safest to ask Mu Nan to come.

Mu Nan shook his head hesitantly, "I'm just a guest of Da Zhou, if something happens... how can I get out of it?"

Huai Shu still begged, "Sister Mu... Huai Shu swears here, if Sister Mu is implicated... Huai Shu will not die well!"

Mu Nan seemed to hesitate for a long time before reluctantly nodding.

"However, this medicine has to be prepared now... Today I went to Luoyang City to search for medicinal materials, and tomorrow I will make it and deliver it, but, Huai Shu...you have to be careful."

Huai Shu looked at the light blue folded branch pillow on the imperial concubine's bed, and thought of Jiang Jinyan who was dressed in light blue like the person in the painting that day.

She clutched the pillow tightly and sneered for a long time.

At this time, in Yijing Palace, Princess Huaiqing was looking at He Guiren who was curtseying with a smile on her face.

I heard that Mr. He Gui has some friendship with Jiang Jinyan.

Thinking of Jiang Jinyan stepping on Huai Shu's head, her smile became even wider at the moment.

Princess Huaiqing hurriedly asked the maids beside her to give He Lan a seat, so He Lan had to sit on the brocade stick with a slanted body.

"I don't know why the eldest princess called my concubine here?"

Princess Huaiqing was not in a hurry to return to her, she just looked her up and down, and said with a smile: "I heard that Mrs. He is the daughter of the He family in Dingzhou...but she entered the palace from Dingzhou?"

He Lan has been in this harem for a while, and all of his words have been carefully considered.

She replied with a smile: "His Royal Highness, the concubine is from Luoyang, Dingzhou, and lived in Jing'anhou's residence for a while before entering the palace. Jing'anhou is the uncle of the concubine."

The Eldest Princess Huaiqing smiled, "It turns out that the Jing'an Hou Mansion heard that the eldest daughter of the Jing'an Marquis Mansion has been engaged recently. I wonder if the nobleman has heard of it?"

He Lan was also taken aback.

Cousin Jinyan actually engaged? !

She frowned, "I live in this deep palace, so I don't know the news."

"Oh? I heard that the nobleman has a very close personal relationship with Miss Jiang. It's a pity that you two can't meet each other for a long time."

He Lan felt sad for a moment when he heard this.

Being alone in this court, it is indeed extremely difficult to see Jin Yan.

Without Jin Yan who is always around me to give advice, I seem to have lost my backbone.

She knew she couldn't lose her words, and lowered her eyes and said: "His Royal Highness is joking, and now I have this opportunity to serve the Holy Majesty, I am already content."

Princess Huaiqing smiled, "I can ask for a token to enter and leave the palace for the nobleman, and I will give it to Miss Jiang at that time... It will also fulfill the friendship between your sisters."
