Resourceful beauty

Chapter 64 Beauty
"Where did you guys come from?"

In the main hall of Yixin Hall, looking at the two delicate beauties in front of her, Su Yuan asked with a grim expression.

During Rui'an's four-year draft, dozens of upstarts have been added to the palace. Among these people, who will become the new concubine favored by His Majesty's side? Now, no one can be sure. The bustle in the capital has gradually calmed down.

Just when the common people were secretly envious of the ninety-five-year-old sage who thought of the blessings of Qi people, two beauties also ushered in the mansion of Prince Qi. of.

With that incident a few years ago, the number of concubines and concubines in Prince Qi's mansion dropped from as many as seven or eight to the present three. Su Yuan thought that with King Qi's current state of mind, he might not be able to accept new concubines. Concubine, unexpectedly, the Holy Majesty "understanding" sent the newcomer here.

As for the two in front of them, one could tell at a glance that they were not local girls from Dayuan. They were tall and slender.

The willow eyebrows are curved, and the pupils of Qiushui are full of affection, and the glances are fascinating.

Even Su Yuan, who is also a woman, saw that she felt that she was less attractive than them, but it was this feeling that made Su Yuan unable to put on a good face even though she knew that they were bestowed by the Holy Spirit.

Hearing Su Yuan's question, the plump one of the two saluted and replied: "As for Wangfei, my name is Yunna, and I was presented by Yao Kingdom."

The other one also saluted and said, "My name is Zhuqing, and I'm also from Yao Country."

Su Yuan frowned slightly.

The beauties presented by the Kingdom of Yao, Emperor Rui'an did not enter the harem, but were sent to Prince Qi's mansion, what does this mean?
Thinking of this in her heart, when Su Yuan raised her eyes to look at those two people again, her eyes became a little more wary.

"The prince will be back in the future, you should settle down first. As for how to deal with it in the future, we will decide after the prince returns. Qiu Tong..."

Called Qiutong and asked her to take the two of them to the vacant yard in the apse to resettle. Su Yuan waved to Yunna and the two.

After the two saluted and turned to leave, seeing their swaying figures and the amorous gestures they showed, Su Yuan's expression immediately sank.

After a cup of tea, side concubine Wu arrived after receiving the news.

Xu Shi already knew the appearance of those two people. Concubine Wu's nose was not her nose, her eyes were not her eyes, and snorted: "Look at that foxy appearance, you can tell that Yao Kingdom has no good intentions, but unexpectedly, it's unlucky for us body came."

Su Yuan sighed, and turned her head to tell Qiu Shuang, "Go and find out, which other mansions have the same situation this time."

In a short time, Qiu Shuang went back and forth, and said that not only the Qi Wang Mansion, but also the beauties awarded by the Holy Majesty in the mansions of several major families in the capital, and all of them were donated by the surrounding countries.

This time, Su Yuan just wanted to find an excuse to dismiss Yun Na and Zhu Qing, but she couldn't.

On the fifth day of October, King Qi and Fang Zhengjun returned from the Northwest Camp.

As soon as Qi Wangfu got off his horse, he was invited to the Yixin Palace by someone sent by Su Yuan. Fang Zhengjun followed him to the ceremony, and then went straight to Shuyuxuan.

"Brother, Sister Mei is here, you don't know yet, do you?"

After the Mid-Autumn Festival, King Qi and Fang Zhengjun didn't return to the palace alone. Su Yuan wanted to send someone to invite her, but she was worried that the people in the army would make fun of her.

Seeing Fang Zhengjun, Fang Ruxuan asked with a happy face.

Fang Zhengjun didn't answer, but smiled and said, "I haven't seen her for several years, and I don't know what she has become now."

Fang Ruxuan asked flatteringly: "Brother, it's rare that Sister Mei comes back to the capital. Let's stop riding horses today and go shopping in the street, okay?"

Knowing what Fang Ruxuan was up to, Fang Zhengjun nodded with a smile.

The two brothers and sisters changed their clothes respectively, went to Yixin Hall to say hello to King Qi and Su Yuan, and then went out.

Fang Zhengjun was riding a horse, Fang Ruxuan was riding a carriage, and when they arrived at the gate of the Chen Mansion, they met the maid beside Chen Mei who was poking her head outside the gate. The carriage stopped and saw Fang Ruxuan, and the maid trotted towards the yard.

Within a quarter of an hour, Chen Mei came out with her maid and got into Fang Ruxuan's carriage.

"Sister Mei, you are so beautiful today."

In the carriage, Fang Ruxuan praised sincerely.

Today, Chen Mei is wearing a lake-green chest-length skirt. Between her jet-black temples, a white suet jade hairpin exudes a soft light. A pair of pearl earrings by her ears swing slightly with Chen Mei's movements, becoming more and more beautiful. The hair sets off the softness of the daughter's family.

Chen Mei's face was flushed, "I haven't seen you for a few days, but your mouth looks like it's been smeared with honey."

Fang Ruxuan pursed her lips and snickered.

The group didn't go to the clothes store, nor did they go to the Jewelry Pavilion, which sells jewelry. Instead, they stayed at Mingyuan Bookstore on North Street for more than an hour.

Seeing that Chen Mei and Fang Ruxuan each picked out several books and bought some pens, inks, papers and inkstones, Fang Zhengjun jokingly said, "You turn a blind eye to my daughter's favorite clothes and jewelry, but these things caught your eyes. It's a pity, if it is a man, three years later, it will be two pillars of talent."

Chen Mei curled her lips and said, "Could it be that Big Brother Fang also thinks that my daughter's family should embroider in the boudoir and be illiterate?"

"Don't dare, I'm praising you for being different, can't sister Chen hear that?"

"I never heard Brother Fang have such a meaning."

The two came and went, bickering very lively, Fang Ruxuan, who was silent at the side, just watched from the sidelines, but there was always a playful smile on her lips.

At noon, Fang Zhengjun was the host, and everyone had lunch in Huixian Tower.

Sending Chen Mei back to the Chen Mansion, Fang Zhengjun got off his horse, hesitated for a moment, and said to Chen Mei: "You and Ruxuan have been sisters since childhood. Now that we have returned to the capital, we will walk around more. I will accompany you again during the Chinese New Year. Take a good stroll around the capital..."

It has been more than half a year since returning to Beijing. Besides teaching Fang Ruxuan how to ride a horse, Fang Zhengjun has never taken Fang Ruxuan out for a walk. Fang Zhengjun's words made Fang Ruxuan feel something was wrong.

Noticing Fang Ruxuan's suspicious gaze, Chen Mei blushed again, nodded and gave a hum, without saying hello to Fang Ruxuan, she turned and entered the gate of the Chen residence.

"Brother, you didn't treat me so considerately and meticulously in the past, did you?"

Pretending to be annoyed, Fang Ruxuan pulled down the car curtain. Outside the car curtain, Fang Zhengjun scratched his head in embarrassment. Inside the car curtain, Fang Ruxuan snickered, as if he had discovered some big secret.

Back at Prince Qi's mansion, seeing her elder brother following her side step by step, wanting to say something but unable to say it, Fang Ruxuan finally couldn't help laughing, "I didn't see anything, you don't need to tell me."

The two brothers and sisters talked and laughed all the way into the Yixin Hall, but saw that the atmosphere in the main hall was somewhat dull.

"My lord, it's a joyful thing to have a newcomer in the house. As long as the lord likes it, the concubine will definitely be happy to bring him in, but what are the identities of those two people? Is it true that the lord is so unavoidable?" Can't you be fooled by those two people? Your lord..."

Su Yuan finished her sentence halfway, but when she saw Fang Zhengjun and Fang Ruxuan, she immediately stopped talking.

King Qi saw a pair of sons and daughters coming back. He seemed to have something to explain. He glanced at the two, turned his head and told Su Yuan, "This matter is not as complicated as you think. Why, do you want me to resist the order?" Do not comply?"

Seeing that Su Yuan was depressed, King Qi stood up and said: "Jiaying is also an old man in the palace, and her status should be changed. You can make a note and promote her from concubine to side concubine. As for Yunna and Zhuqing , are all concubines, and if they are titled, one is cloud and the other is bamboo, and the rules are the same as when they were in Jiangbei."

After King Qi finished speaking, Concubine Shen hurriedly got up to thank the lord, "I thank the lord for your kindness."

Nodding his head, King Qi strode out of the Yixin Hall.

That night, King Qi rested in Concubine Yun's Longxue Hall.

In Shuyuxuan, upon hearing the news, Fang Ruxuan gloated and said with a gleeful smile: "Tonight, at the Yixin Hall, I'm afraid I'm going to be sleepless all night."

Su Ye snickered, "I'm afraid the princess didn't expect that newcomers would enter the palace so soon."

After all, Su Yuan is not a tolerant concubine. In the past, every time King Qi returned to the mansion, as long as he did not rest in the Yixin Hall, after King Qi left, Concubine Wu and Concubine Shen were favored. The person who is in love is bound to be ridiculed by Su Yuan with raised eyebrows and eyes, not to mention that Concubine Yun and Concubine Zhu are still seventeen or eighteen-year-old beauties.

Fang Ruxuan couldn't help thinking of the words Su Yuan said when she entered the Yixin Palace during the day.

On the surface, it sounds like Su Yuan is doing it for King Qi's benefit, fearing that the two women from Yao Kingdom will cause trouble in the future if they are in King Qi's inner house.

But Su Yuan didn't want to think about it. Even if there was something wrong with these two people, it was rewarded by Emperor Rui'an. Could it be that King Qi could still refuse?

"She is stupid because she thinks that she is entrusted by her mother and has three children to rely on, so her father should treat her as if she respected her mother. But what she didn't expect was that after going through the events of the past few days, she was already in her father's heart. She is useless, and in the future, she can only be Princess Qi, and everything else is probably delusional."

Fang Ruxuan said harshly.

Ding Xiang and Su Ye nodded again and again.

When she got up early the next day and went to the Yixin Palace to pay her respects, Fang Ruxuan felt a little funny when she saw Su Yuan in a formal red princess dress.

After a while, Concubine Yun and Concubine Zhu came steadily.

Seeing that the two were not a few years older than her daughter, Su Yuan suddenly felt a little bitter in her heart. She got up an hour earlier to arrange her makeup, trying to make everything from the hair to the soles of her feet look inappropriate, but seeing the indiscretions in front of her eyes But she felt that no matter how elegant and luxurious she was dressed, she couldn't compare to their youthful beauty.

The original one-hour greeting ended early because of Su Yuan's recurring headache.

Seeing that Su Yuan waved her hand to signal everyone to go back to the room to rest, Concubine Wu and Concubine Shen stood up and left expressionlessly. Concubine Yun walked a few steps, then turned to look at the tired Su Yuan and said, "Princess, don't worry. I have prepared soup for the concubine to avoid children, the prince has an order, Xu concubine, as the prince, will open up branches and spread leaves for the prince's family."

After finishing speaking, Concubine Yun left gracefully.

Behind, Su Yuan's eyes almost burst into anger.
