Chapter 157 Yuan Su Asks for Help
Chapter 157 Yuan Su Asks for Help
The dark spots on Xiaoru's face became more obvious because of her anger, she wished she could strangle the woman in front of her, "Don't be too complacent, father and mother will try to save this palace."
"Yes, your concubine will find a way to save you." Cui Mama smiled maliciously, "By the way, I heard a very interesting news today that your concubine has been thrown into limbo."
Xiaoru's face was horrified, he took a breath and shook his head and said: "No, you lied to me, you are intimidating me, aren't you? The emperor dotes on mother and concubine so much, how could he put her in the cold palace? I won't Be fooled by you, you don't want to scare me."
"The princess has come to this point now, why should this old slave lie to you?" Seeing the despair on her face, Cui Momo got up with satisfaction, "Here is the medicine, it is getting cold, princess, drink it quickly, we will arrive in Beimo tomorrow In the territory, General Wu will return to Daliang after seeing the Emperor Beimo, and then he will tell the Emperor that the princess is well."
"General Wu?" A gleam of hope rose in Xiaoru's heart. General Wu is going back to China, that's great, as long as he tells his father that he has been put into a sedan chair, his father will definitely save her.
However, soon, her hope was lost again, because Cui Mama continued: "General Wu will be promoted because he finally completed the secret order given by the emperor. After the emperor learned that the princess was put on a sedan chair, he ordered There is a secret order from someone to send the princess to Beimo smoothly, and General Wu has fulfilled his mission, so the emperor will surely commend him."
"You mean, father already knew that I was being put into a sedan chair?"
"That's right, the emperor knew about it, and because of this, Longyan was furious. In a fit of anger, he sent Shang Guifei, who had threatened Princess Caiyue, to the cold palace. It can only be said that your concubine thinks too much of herself. She is just the emperor. One of the many concubines, and the prince of Huainan is the emperor's brother, they grew up together and have a deep bond of flesh and blood, how can they be compared to a noble concubine who only knows how to fight for favor and profit?"
Seeing Xiaoru's angry and sad expression, Mammy Cui felt extremely happy in her heart.She knew that Concubine Shang Gui designed the princess, but unfortunately she was helpless. Fortunately, Princess Yili came up with a good plan to turn the situation around, otherwise the princess would be the princess who entered Beimo tomorrow.
Although she will not be able to stay with the princess to serve her in the future, or she may never have the chance to see the princess in this life, but she knows that the princess will have a happy life in the future, that's all, that's enough.
Xiaoru hated Caiyue very much, but she didn't know that it was not Caiyue or Huainan King who designed her, but Princess Yili, whom she had always looked down upon.
Like Princess Xiaoru, there is General Yuan Su who feels that life is miserable.
His hair has turned gray recently because of the more than 1 taels of silver, and it seems that the one-month period is up, except for the little bit that Gao Ling'er gave and some that he borrowed here and there, there is nothing else he can't borrow.
Rumors also began to spread in Beijing, saying that he hooked up with Li Xiangyu before Princess Qinghe died. Princess Qinghe was very popular. When hearing these rumors, regardless of whether they are true or not, everyone has opinions on Yuan Su. Those who were troubled even secretly speculated that Princess Qinghe had always been in excellent health, so how could she suddenly die suddenly?Maybe it was poisoned.
Because of these rumors, Yuan Su couldn't borrow money.
Li Xiangyu finally bit the bullet and went to Gao's house and asked Mrs. Gao for 1 taels of silver.
Mrs. Gao spread her hands and told her that the Gao family was actually very difficult, with too much expenses and couldn't make ends meet. Sometimes they had to rely on their female relatives to go back to their natal family to ask for money to meet the expenses. Moreover, they had to allocate part of it for her wedding preparations. There is no more money to give her.
Li Xiangyu naturally knew that Mrs. Gao was just evading. She said to Mrs. Gao cheekily: "Now I recognize my ancestors and return to my clan. Over the years, I should return the share I deserve. I don't care. Anyway, you Make it up to me."
Mrs. Gao smiled, "That's the reason, but I have to discuss it with your grandfather."
Li Xiangyu was very angry, and he would never give any money to the old man when he discussed it with him, so why bother to ask?
At the same time, Li Fugui also attacked her, because Qinghe's other courtyard drove him away after it was taken back, and now he can only live in the inn temporarily, but he doesn't have much money, so he found Li Xiangyu, If he wants to move to the general's mansion, if Li Xiangyu is not allowed, ask Li Xiangyu to give him a sum of money to buy a house.
Li Xiangyu himself was very troubled, how could he spend the extra money to buy him a house?He had to agree to move to the mansion temporarily, and Sanniang moved here together.
On this day, the palace ordered someone to spread the word that Princess Yili and Princess Changchun would come to the mansion tomorrow to collect the money, so that Yuan Su could prepare it.
Li Xiangyu was in a hurry, and he said to Yuan Su: "You have so many colleagues, can't you borrow some? What about those people who were with you before? They are all rich or expensive, and they can't even get 1 taels of silver." ?”
Yuan Su was also really resentful. Those people who played well with him before all said with embarrassment that they were poor and had no money.Since Qinghe died, these people didn't come to the mansion very often. Yuan Su knew that most of them looked for him for Qinghe's sake in the past. Too lazy to take care of myself.
Thinking of his good life and ending up in such a state, he also felt an indescribable feeling in his heart.
He never thought that one day the burden on his shoulders would be so heavy, and he never thought that he would not even have a true friend despite his high position as a general.
There was really no other way, Yuan Su gritted his teeth and went to Ningjun Palace.
However, he was unable to see the Ningjun Wang and his wife. The concierge told him that the Ningjun Wang and his wife entered the palace early this morning, saying that the Empress Dowager was feeling unwell, so they were summoned to the palace to talk, and they might not come back tonight up.
Yuan Su had no choice but to go to the Marquis of Ningguo.
The person who received him in Ningguohou's Mansion was Princess Qinghe's aunt Wang Shi.
The husband of the Wang family is the third son of the Ning family, the half-brother of King Ning, who was a concubine, but he is a very capable person. Now he works in the household department and is a third-rank official.
Yuan Su was very afraid of this Wang family. Every time he came to the mansion with Qinghe in the past, he was reluctant to talk to this woman, but Qinghe liked this aunt very much, and even called her Wang Xifeng, although he didn't know what name Wang Xifeng was. road.
Seeing Yuan Su coming, Mrs. Wang greeted him to come in, served tea, and asked, "I haven't been here for a long time, what's the matter?"
Yuan Su looked around, "Is the Fourth Madam not there?"
The fourth wife Hu is the wife of Ning Mian, the fourth master of the Ning family. She is the most kind-hearted, easy to talk to everyone, and her natal family is rich and generous, so Yuan Su looks forward to seeing her this time.
Wang said: "She has returned to her mother's house, what can you do with her?"
Yuan Su rubbed his hands, and opened his mouth in embarrassment, "It's nothing, I just came to visit the old man, by the way, how is Hou Ye?"
