A tree of peach blossoms pressing the prime minister

Chapter 27 Reality is cruel
You say this life is really unfair sometimes.Some people can easily get rich clothes, fine food, high beds and soft pillows, but some people have to struggle in hell for ninety-nine times and 81 times in order to have a peaceful life.

If it is possible, Jiang Taohua is like being a beauty who relies on her face to make a living. If she has nothing to do, act like a baby, embroider and embroider, and someone will promise her a lifetime of wealth.

It's a pity that dreams are so beautiful that they can fly into the sky, but reality is always so cruel that they can make people fall to pieces********** For example, there is a rumor coming from nowhere, saying that Mrs. Jiang from Zhengchun Pavilion Going to the street with a sickness to get along with men in private, and now people are looking around with her portrait.

Tao Hua was terrified when she heard that, and thought that there might be someone who knew how to draw on the street that day and remembered her appearance?That would be terrible, if King Jing finds out, Shen Zaiye didn't kill himself first to avoid future troubles?

Hastily asked Qingmo to go outside to find her portrait and came back. When she opened it, Jiang Taohua could roll her eyes.

"This looks like me?!"

Glancing at the weird face in the painting, Qingmos comforted: "It's not like that, so this portrait must have nothing to do with you."

"But if it has nothing to do with me, how could there be such rumors in the mansion?" Tao Hua frowned: "Where did it come from?"

Moss shook her head, expressing that she didn't know.They are still not very familiar with this mansion, and they are always in a passive stage. Everything can only be discussed after the situation is clear.

Jiang Taohua was silent, her fingers landed on the roster in front of her, and she turned to the page of Meng's.

The concubine's daughter of Meng Taifu.

The eunuch is the official in charge of horse administration, with great power and a lot of money.His prostitute didn't even enter the palace, but only worked as a lady in the prime minister's mansion?
Taohua instantly felt that she was really wronged by being a princess, after all, she was only a concubine, and all the serious and serious concubines were just maidens.

After all, she can't do anything now, so why not wait until the water really floods in.After closing the booklet, Taohua lay down to rest in peace, thinking that whoever wants to talk about it now can go, anyway, Shen Zaiye will definitely help King Jing's side.For the rest, she wasn't afraid at all.

"master."

After lunch, Moss came in with a serious expression and said: "Madam said she will come over later."

Mei Zhaoxue?Taohua blinked, what is she doing here?
Although she doesn't know many people in this yard at the moment, Mrs. Mei is indeed the most dignified of them all, she has the air of a lady, and she is not someone who will make trouble for nothing.At this time, there must be something important.

Thinking about it this way, Taohua reluctantly dressed up and leaned against the bedside to wait.

Mei Zhaoxue came alone, wearing a dress of plum blossoms reflecting spring, and sat down beside her bed with a smile: "Is your body feeling better?"

"Thank you Madam for your concern." Tao Hua said with a smile: "It's still being raised, so it's inconvenient to be present, Madam, don't blame me."

"You know the rules, I know." Mei Zhaoxue smiled and took her hand: "It's just that there are some things you can't help yourself, and I never wanted to argue with you."

Is it true that you don't care about it?Tao Hua also knew in her heart that she had broken the rules of the house, so she could only bow her head and admit her mistake: "I am afraid."

"Now that you are beautiful, I don't care if you don't care about it, I can understand." With a soft sigh, Mei Zhaoxue said: "It's just that the rules of serving the bed no longer exist, and it is inevitable that many people in the yard are uneasy. If there are one or two who are not sensible If you hit you, my wife will take care of you."

This is to give her an advance notice, is someone going to deal with her?Taohua smiled dryly: "I see that the people in this courtyard are quite sensible."

Shaking her head, Mei's eyes were deep, and she approached her and said: "Some people are not so easy to get along with, and they have come to me to complain a lot. I know she is making trouble for no reason, so I ignore it, but you have to Be careful, you should see clearly what is in the yard."

With a slight movement in her eyes, Jiang Taohua looked up at her, then nodded: "Thank you, Ma'am, for your reminder."

Mei Zhaoxue smiled, her eyes were gentle and harmless: "I just like you, a woman who is pampered but not coquettish, and knows how to measure. When the injury is healed, you can often go to my place for a sit-down."

"Okay." Tao Hua replied gratefully: "When my concubine recovers from her injuries, I will definitely bring a gift to thank you."

Nodding her head, Mei Zhaoxue gave her a pair of bracelets before she left, the best mutton jade.

"It's really rich." Qingmo was stunned: "Our empress is also wearing this kind of bracelet."

Taohua took one to weigh, and smiled softly: "This lady is very good at being a person, and she has a way of winning people's hearts. She is indeed the daughter of Mr. Fengchang's family."

"Does the master think she is trustworthy?"

Shaking her head, reaching out to put down the bracelet, Tao Hua said: "There is only one person in this world who can be completely trusted, and that is yourself."

Qingmo was stunned for a moment, a little disappointed: "Master, you can't even trust me completely?"

"I can entrust my life to you." Tao Hua said solemnly, "But I can't completely trust you."

"..." Life can be given, how difficult is it to have complete trust?Moss didn't understand very much, but thinking about how her master's thinking was always different from ordinary people, she didn't worry about it anymore.

"Since the madam has come to mention something, let's be more careful." She said: "Your servant, go and pay attention to the people in the yard."

"Don't pay attention, just drive out the maid who lied to you that day, and say that you have committed a crime, and you don't want Zhengchun Pavilion."

Qingmoss was startled: "So direct?"

"Madam has given us a chance, why don't we hurry up?" Tao Hua smiled, her eyes full of cunning: "She wants to sow discord, so let's take advantage of the situation and see who that maid is."

She actually understood what Mei Zhaoxue meant, which was to tell her that someone was going to kill her, and she was helping her to block it, and even mentioned that there were unclean things in her yard.Speaking of which, wouldn't it be a pity if she didn't drive that maid out in the name of Madam?

Even if the master behind the scenes wanted to settle the score, this account must be recorded on the wife's head.She just hides under the big tree to enjoy the shade.

Moss nodded and went to do it immediately, and crying sounded in the yard after a while.

"Ms. Jiang, Mrs. Jiang! The slave didn't do anything, why was he kicked out?" Zhuyu cried while crying, "Please, my lady, please spare the slave! Please spare the slave!"

Taohua listened for a while, and when the voice was far away from Zhengchun Pavilion, she said: "Bring people in."

Qingmos brought the little girl in with one hand and threw it in front of her.

Zhuiyu was so frightened that she trembled all over, and said in a crying voice: "What did the slave girl do wrong? The lady wants to be punished so severely?"

The girl who made a mistake in this yard and was kicked out will be kicked out of the prime minister's mansion directly, and other yards will not accept it.

Tao Hua leaned against the bed, looked at her and said softly: "A good slave does not serve two masters, do you understand?"

Turning pale, Zhuiyu looked up at her in disbelief: "How could it be..."

How would she know?

"I don't know the situation in this mansion very well, and I don't care who you belong to." Jiang Taohua sighed, and looked at her with pity in her eyes: "But Madam has said that you are not a loyal servant and that you are harmful to me. heart, then this Zhengchun Pavilion won't be able to accommodate you, let's go."

Zhuyu shook her head again and again, she was really unwilling: "The servant has no intention of harming the master! Although serving these few days is not dedicated, but it is also dedicated, can't the lady see it?"

"It takes a long time to see people's hearts, and these few days can't explain anything." Taohua said: "Compared to you, I believe in madam."

If other people came to gossip, then at least she still has a little room for defense.But why is it Mrs.Zhuiyu bit her lip and said in a panic: "The maidservant did serve in the Ruanyu Pavilion before, but Lady Meng didn't like it, so she went back to the backyard and worked as a handyman for a period of time before being assigned here."

Montenegro?Taohua raised her eyebrows: "So that's the case, you are from the Meng family?"

"Yes... no!" Almost caught in a cliché, Zhuiyu burst into tears in anxiety: "This servant is only yours now, and I have lost the friendship with the Meng family."

"Then I don't care about it." Taohua shook her head: "If you continue to keep you, you just don't want to give Madam face. I have made up my mind, so you don't need to say more. Qingmoss, drag her away."

"Obey!" Qingmo replied, and Zhuyu panicked even more, reaching out to hold the big vase next to her in an attempt to struggle.

As a result, Moss came over, picked up the vase with her, and sent it out gracefully.

Taohua coughed twice, sniffed, and heard the screams outside, a little worried whether the vase would break.

But Moss' kung fu is reliable, the person threw it away, and the vase was put back intact.

"Very good." Taohua nodded, and continued to lie down and rest.

When it was time to officially go to bed, there was a maid in the yard who broke her mouth, and ran to Qing Moss and muttered for a while, and Qing Moss sent a message to her master.

"Meng Shi ran to greet his wife at night, saying that she was a little unhappy, and when she came out, her face was very ugly."

Looking at it this way, he is really a member of the Meng family.

Taohua wrapped her clothes and nodded: "The rest is up to them to toss about. They will forget my sin of robbing me in a short time."

Because she was injured, she couldn't go to bed, but other people in the yard could.Next is the real battlefield for this group of women, and she wants to stay out of it.

However, I don't know if Mrs. Meng was stimulated, and came to the door directly the next day.What's even more frightening is that he brought Shen Zaiye with him.

"My concubine has something to report to the Lord." She bit her lip and looked at Tao Hua and said, "It has something to do with Mrs. Jiang, so please step aside."

Taohua was sleeping comfortably, and greeted Shen Zaiye with half-opened eyes, and then waved to let the moss go down.

"What happened?"

Shen Zaiye sat drinking tea expressionlessly, and Meng Shi reached out and took out a painting.

This painting is nothing but Jiang Taohua's bizarre portrait.

"Our Prime Minister's Mansion has always been clean, and there is no rumor at all." Meng said quietly: "I didn't expect such a thing to happen now. Madam meant to hide it from the master, but the concubine felt that the master should know .”
