Sheng Chong Concubine

Chapter 534 Lost in the bamboo forest, danger is approaching (5)
"Qingya!"

Princess Rong's voice became more serious, "Don't forget, what did your father go to Yangzhou this time?"

Feng Qingya's complexion changed, but she was still a little unwilling.

"So what? Even if she is lucky enough to be promoted to a daughter-in-law through her grandfather's promotion, it will not change the humbleness in her bones."

Princess Rong's eyes were a little cold, "It seems that I really spoiled you, making you more and more inappropriate, speaking regardless of the occasion, don't you know the truth that disaster comes from your mouth?"

Feng Qingya's face turned pale, and she said in a panic: "Yes, concubine mother, don't be angry, I know I made a mistake, and I won't dare to do it again in the future."

Princess Rong's face softened a bit, "Okay, you can go and play by yourself. Don't you also like playing the piano, go to Yaoyao and the others, and learn from each other, so that you can improve yourself."

"Yes."

As soon as Feng Qingya turned around, she saw two figures passing by the path beside the green pool not far away, their expressions were a little strange.

"Concubine Mu, do you think those two people are Qiu Mingyu and Qiu Mingshan?"

Princess Rong had already turned around, but when she heard the words, she turned around and narrowed her eyes.

"Seems to be."

"Where are they going in such a hurry?"

Feng Qingya frowned and thought.

Princess Rong withdrew her gaze, "Okay, don't worry about others, let's go."

"Mother concubine."

Feng Qingya's eyes were a little bright, and said: "Qiu Mingyu is sister Mingyue's direct sister. I heard that she has always been at odds with sister Mingyue. I noticed just now that when Yaoyao and the others were acting together, the two of them seemed to have a dispute Well. The two of them are in such a hurry, there must be nothing good, you are not curious?"

Princess Rong frowned, but said nothing.

Seeing her brows loosen, Feng Qingya hurriedly said, "Why don't I go over and take a look? What if they want to harm Sister Mingyue?"

Princess Rong frowned even deeper, as if she was considering Feng Qingya's proposal.

"Mother concubine."

Feng Qingya walked over, with a bit of coquettish tone in her tone: "Second brother didn't come today, so I have to help him protect his future wife, right? Just let me go, don't worry, You Tingshan will follow me, no Something will happen, I'll just go over and have a look, if it's really all right, I promise not to cause trouble."

Princess Rong seemed to be frowning, and thought for a while.

"Well, you can go. Remember, Mingyue's safety is the most important thing, don't let people trick her into going."

Feng Qingya's eyes lit up immediately, "I know about my concubine, I'm going."

She took the maid and headed towards Bichi, looking a little excited.

Princess Rong looked at her back and shook her head helplessly.Turning around to leave, she was a little stunned when she saw a person.

"Madam Xu?"

Mrs. Xu is already sixty years old and wears a cane, but she is still in high spirits. There is only a maid to support her, and there is no one else.She looked at Princess Rong and smiled faintly.

"Princess Rong is about to have a good daughter-in-law, I congratulate you."

Princess Rong also laughed, "Thank you."

She walked over and said kindly, "Madam, why are you here alone? You are getting old, you should rest more."

Mrs. Xu sighed, her tone was a bit melancholy.

"I'm getting old, and my grandchildren are all grown up. My old lady can't take care of her anymore. If she has nothing to do, she will go out for a walk. Otherwise, she will die in the hospital bed sooner or later."

"How come? The old lady is in good health and will surely live a long life."

She had already helped Mrs. Xu to the pavilion and sat down, and poured tea for her herself.

Mrs. Xu looked at her twice, and suddenly said: "The princess is virtuous and gentle, Prince Rong is so lucky."

Princess Rong paused while pouring tea, and then put down the teapot naturally, with a gentle smile.

"Old Madam Xu is full of praise."

Princess Rong is the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and she can be regarded as half of the royal family, and her status is actually higher than that of Mrs. Xu.It's just that General Xu, the veteran of the two dynasties, has gone to the battlefield countless times to drive out the enemy army and made great military exploits for Dazhao.Mrs. Xu was also a rare woman when she was young. Zeng Nv disguised herself as a man and went to the battlefield with General Xu. The two were husband and wife for decades, and their love remained the same.General Xu never took a concubine in his life.

The first emperor was grateful for Mrs. Xu's loyalty and staunchness, and because her son died in the battle, he made her a first-rank madam, respecting her more than the imperial concubine.Even the fourth concubine in the harem is one level lower than her, let alone the princess or princess?That's why Princess Rong respected her so much.

Old Princess Xu looked at the tea in front of her and smiled.

"Back then, the sixth prince begged the late emperor for a marriage, but he didn't want to..."

She seemed to think of something, suddenly stopped and smiled.

"Look at me, I like to recall the past when I'm old, don't be offended by Princess Rong."

The smile on Princess Rong's face was a bit stiff, and the hands on her knees were slightly tightened, but her face remained calm.

"Madam Xu is too serious."

She looked away, the breeze was blowing, and the veil outside the gazebo floated faintly, casting a shadow on her face.

"Back when my cousin entered the palace, I felt very sorry for her and the lord. However, the late emperor's decree was also intentional and powerless."

"Yes, the emperor's order cannot be done."

Mrs. Xu sighed, "It's a pity...the beauty is unlucky."

Princess Rong turned her head and saw Mrs. Xu had closed her eyes, as if she had fallen asleep.

She cast her eyes on the maid standing aside, and asked with her eyes.

The servant girl said respectfully: "The old lady is getting older, she sleeps a lot more, please forgive me, Princess Rong."

Princess Rong nodded, "But it's very windy here, let someone help your old lady go back to the mansion."

The maid shook her head, "The old lady didn't get enough sleep, and she was lazy during the day. Now she finally fell asleep, so don't wake her up, or the old lady will suffer from insomnia again tonight. The doctor said that the old lady had a few years ago If you are tired, you should rest more."

Princess Rong thought for a while, and told the maid behind her: "Congxuan, go to Princess Zhennan and ask someone to bring you a quilt. Sleeping in the open air like this, don't catch the wind and cold."

"Yes."

Cong Xuan led the way.

The maid next to Mrs. Xu blessed Princess Rong, "Thank you, Princess."

Princess Rong just hummed, and looked into the distance, but her memory has already returned to that spring full of peach blossoms many years ago.There are the crisp laughter of the girl, the gentle eyes of the boy, and the secretly jealous figure hiding behind the rockery...

Qiu Mingyue walked along the path for a stick of incense, and finally walked out of the bamboo forest. Before she could be happy, she saw a high wall in front of her, and the corners of her mouth twitched involuntarily.Does this mean that a mountain is higher than a mountain?
