Nine-fold lotus of the famous family

Chapter 389: The Concubine Takes Action (1)
King Yan's Mansion is a big mansion with three entrances and five entrances. The left and right lanes live respectively with the four concubines and children of King Yan. The rest are concubines and their children. Prince Yan has many heirs. I heard that this mansion It has been expanded several times over the years.

The middle road is naturally the main house of King Yan and Princess Yan. There are five main rooms with two wing rooms on the left and right. It is covered with scarlet red silk curtains, this kind of fabric is even reluctant to be used by ordinary people to make clothes, and it is as smooth as quicksilver.

Mama Wang was walking quickly under the veranda. The maids and servants on both sides stood silently with their heads lowered. One of the maids opened the curtain, and Mama Wang walked in without stopping, bypassing the purple purlins placed in the main room. The chiseled silver enamel screen made it easy to see Princess Yan reclining on the large kang inlaid with nanmu wood in Xici's room. Yaoru's pastel tea set was placed on the kang table, and the maid was holding the pot and pouring clear tea soup.

Princess Yan watched the tea soup roll down into the cup with satisfaction, without leaking any water.

Mother Wang saluted with a smile, glanced left and right, and the maids standing in the room retreated one by one without making a sound.

Mama Wang cautiously leaned into Princess Yan's ear and said, "Princess, I have received the good news from Pei's residence. I heard that Mrs. Pei has one."

Princess Yan just took a sip of tea, her expression changed when she heard the words, the teacup in her hand landed heavily on the kang table, splashed a few drops of tea on the table, she gritted her teeth and said, "Yunqi's child is not blessed, I didn't expect her to more?!"

Seeing Princess Yan's livid face, Mama Wang rolled her eyes, "Princess, this is actually a good thing!"

"She is pregnant with a child, so what kind of good thing is it for me?" Princess Yan snorted angrily, and looked at Mama Wang, "I think you are old-fashioned!"

Mother Wang blushed, but she didn't dare to say anything, she just whispered: "Women have children in the past, and they have to sleep in separate rooms. They are pregnant in October, and there is no one close to Mr. Pei. Princess, look..."

Concubine Yan was startled for a while, and then she came to her senses, and gave Wang Mama a half-smile look, "You mean...you, an old bastard, have more ideas!"

Mama Wang was praised, she put aside her previous unhappiness, and continued to flatter her: "It's just that we can't be too eye-catching. If we only focus on Mr. Pei, everyone might say that we are targeting Mrs. Pei, but if we widely Cast the net, and there will be no such gossip..."

"you're right!"

Princess Yan rolled her eyes, and said in a deep voice: "Right now, we should take care of those powerful subordinates in front of the prince. If I win over these generals for the prince, the prince will praise me for being virtuous!"

After much deliberation, this is a good strategy to kill two birds with one stone!
Mama Wang complimented: "Princess Wang is wise!"

Concubine Yan's eyes were already pale when she said this, "Go, call me Situ Geng!"

Mama Wang retreated, but when she turned around, she breathed a sigh of relief, quickly lifted the curtain, and ordered a little maid standing under the veranda to invite Situ Geng to the outer courtyard.

Situ Geng is the long history of King Yan's mansion. Although he only listens to King Yan's orders on weekdays, if the princess asks him to do something, he naturally dare not delay.

Although the four side concubines are now faintly able to compete with the princess, the master of the inner courtyard is the princess herself. At least the princess has not made any major mistakes, and she is married to the king of Yan. He gave birth to a son for the prince, but at present, the prince still maintains superficial respect for the princess.

When Situ Geng arrived outside the main room, the maid informed him, and Wang's mother warmly welcomed him in, which surprised Situ Geng slightly.

You must know that Wang Mama is the dowry mother of the princess, and she does not lie to anyone on weekdays. If she hadn't been ordered by the princess herself, she might not have used this face to face herself.

This made Situ Geng's heart tremble a little, being courteous to others, one must ask for something!
I just don't know what the princess is asking for this time? !

"Master Situ please sit down!"

Princess Yan was already sitting upright at this moment, Mama Wang hurriedly moved a brocade stool over, Situ Gengqian gave way, and sat halfway sideways, then she bowed her hands to Princess Wang, "I don't know if Princess summons the officer, What are your orders?"

"It's like this," Princess Yan smiled lightly, her right hand caressed the bright red Dan Kou on her left hand carelessly, and she spoke softly, "I want to find some concubines for the prince's capable subordinates, so that they can have a cold-hearted person beside them." People who know the heat, on the one hand, they are enticing them for the prince, and on the other hand, if they have any moves, these concubines will naturally inform us, which plays two roles."

Princess Yan looked up at Situ Geng, and said sternly: "However, we need to carefully select candidates. I wonder if Sir Situ has any good recommendations?"

Situ Geng was slightly taken aback, wondering if this was King Yan's idea, or the princess's unilateral idea?

More than half of the generals in the military camp are married, and of course there are also singles. In some mansions, their own wives preside over them, and some randomly accept a concubine to take care of the house temporarily. In the past, I didn't know whether it was good or bad.

Situ Geng suddenly thought of Mrs. Pei. He heard that Mrs. Pei had just found out that she was pregnant... He glanced at Princess Yan indiscriminately, and felt that there was something strange about it.

It is not difficult for him to understand that Princess Yan will hate Mrs. Pei because of Jian Yunqi's relationship. Now that she is sending concubines to various houses, it is really hard to say whether there is any hidden meaning against Mrs. Pei.

Situ Geng was very scheming, and these interests were only passed in his mind, but he didn't show it on the surface, and he still replied respectfully: "As far as I know, there are a new group of family members and relatives of criminal officials in the teaching workshop. Among the servants and maidservants, there are many women who know the rules and etiquette, and their background and education are naturally higher than those of Shijing, if you choose some from them, it should be feasible!"

"The girl from Jiaofang? Why didn't I think of it, that would be really good!"

Princess Yan clapped her hands and smiled, obviously very interested in Situ Geng's suggestion.

Just like Pei Yan's wife, Ji Chonglian, she was born in Danyang Ji's family, a noble family with a scholarly family. If you pick some women from Shijing, how can these generals with high eyesight be liked?

Although the girls in Jiaofang lost their slave status, one or two of them were still the jewels held in the palm of their hands by their family members. As long as she trained them well and promised them a future, wouldn't they be afraid that they would not be used for themselves?

"Situ Geng, you go pick some people back today, and I'll let Mama Wang give them a good education, and when I'm familiar with the rules, I'll send them to your lords' mansions, and say that they are concubines I bestowed on them!"

The more Princess Yan thought about it, the more complacent she became. Seeing that Situ Geng responded respectfully and turned around to leave, she said, "Don't report this matter to the prince. I will naturally tell him after the matter is completed. If the prince praises you, I have to remember you for your credit!"
