The two black treasures of Tiangui's escaped concubine

Chapter 85
Unexpectedly, these words caused Old Madam Hua to hit his head with a chestnut: "You bastard! Needless to say, Mrs. Liu must have given you such a bad idea."

Hua Zhengke said aggrievedly: "Mother, her suggestion did not harm the Hua family. Isn't it possible for our Hua family to have a crown princess who can be suppressed by other nobles? The virtuous king will become the emperor in the future, and our Shu'er will be the queen. I You are the emperor's father-in-law, and the entire Baichang country must respect you, the queen's grandmother, the most."

"I keep saying that it is good for the Hua family, but I just remember that Shu'er has forgotten Xiyan. Such flattering soft bones have been used for generations in my Hua family. In your generation, it is simply useless." The old lady Hua became more and more angry when she said that In the middle of the fever, several sons have their own families and careers, but they are all disappointing. The bigger the official, the more he only knows about petty gain. He has long forgotten the roots of the Hua family, making her faceless in the face of her ancestors, and even her eldest granddaughter.Then he pointed his angry finger at his son's head again: "Do you think that you and Mrs. Liu's plan is really for Shu'er? You can see the current situation for yourself, where is Shu'er?"

"Shu'er, Shu'er—" Hua Zhengke trembled, speechless.

"Shu'er has been missing for a long time, has King Xian ever worried about her?"

Listening to the old lady of the Hua family scolding his son, the Xian Wang originally had the mentality of watching the show, but when he was inattentive, the old lady pointed the finger at him, which made him face quite embarrassed.

Mrs. Hua ignored these people, waved her sleeves and said, "Your Highness, please go out. I am old, my health is not good, and I am tired from the journey. I need to rest."

The virtuous king saluted patiently and then got out of Mrs. Hua's carriage.

Just as Hua Zhengke was about to follow, the old lady behind suddenly grabbed the teacup and threw it on his head: "You bastard. What kind of fate did Xiyan cultivate to have a father like you! Don't forget, whether the heir of the Hua family is For men and women, Xiyan is the eldest daughter, so don't think about who else you want to marry except Xiyan."

Liu Shi was worried at first, and was listening outside, but now she heard the old matriarch speak like this again, she almost spit out a mouthful of blood.She has been fighting for so many years, is it easy to be a stepmother?She gave birth to four daughters for Hua Zhengke, and finally gave birth to a son, but now she is actually despised by the old lady!
I should have killed Hua Xiyan earlier!
It took eight days for the envoys to travel on the road before arriving at Tanglin.Prior to this, Princess Dongling's mansion became lively first.Entrusted by Queen Mother Hu, the eldest princess undertook the important task of holding the summer lantern festival.Early in the morning, while the eldest princess was discussing the list of invitations with the consort, her own daughter tugged at her sleeve and begged her to let Li Zimo take back the emperor's order forbidding him to enter the palace.

"It is said that the Holy One has a weird temper, which is worse than that of the late Emperor. This is caused by you yourself, and my mother can't speak for you in front of the Holy One. Besides, it's only three days, you go for a walk on the street to relax. Anyone who visits the house will just pass by." The eldest princess patted her daughter's mischievous hand, "If you are really bored, go back to the boudoir to learn embroidery. Don't think that you are the princess. When you get married, you must embroider it yourself in the dowry." s things."

"Mother." Li Jiyao said aggrievedly, "I didn't do anything wrong. Brother Huang treats me so harshly."

"Are you still saying that you did nothing wrong?" The eldest princess squinted at her daughter, "Don't you think about who you provoked? You provoked the celebrity in front of the current emperor."

The son-in-law, Li Yongkang, interjected, and followed the eldest princess to educate his daughter: "Stop talking. The Holy Majesty is doing this for your own good. There are many people who are popular. Many people are staring at Yan Shangshu. You follow in and make do, you are not afraid of being involved." Get into right and wrong. The princess and I are afraid that no one will be able to protect you when the time comes."

"Who is staring at Yan Shangshu? What are you doing staring at Yan Shangshu?" Li Jiyao asked, blinking her big eyes in a daze.

Both the eldest princess and the son-in-law shook their heads and sighed.Their daughter is good in everything, but she has been overprotected by them since she was a child, so that her scheming is too simple.

Seeing that one or two ignored her, Li Jiyao stomped out.Sanqi, the maid who followed her, saw her wandering around in the courtyard and couldn't sit down, so she made a small suggestion: "Princess, otherwise, go to Madam Gong's house and sit down."

The eldest princess's mansion is not familiar with the Gong family, because the Gong family are all indifferent and not sociable, so everyone likes to say that the Gong family is an untainted fairy behind their backs, and the derogatory meaning is greater than the compliment.

However, because Li Jiyao had a deep friendship with the emperor's sister-in-law, the queen, later on, she often ran to the palace house with the eldest princess on her back.In Mrs. Gong's house, watching Mrs. Gong's skillful hands embroidering flowers is also a pleasing and beautiful thing.

Sanqi's suggestion relieved Li Jiyao's boredom.Li Jiyao applauded, got into the sedan chair, and ran to Gong's house.

It happened that Mrs. Gong was alone at home, drying the books in the study in the yard with the servants of the palace family to keep out moisture.Stacks of books lay all over the floor.

"The princess is here." The servant came in to announce.

Mrs. Gong straightened the corners of her clothes and went out to greet her.

Li Jiyao came in and immediately grabbed Mrs. Gong to play chess.

Mrs. Gong followed her wishes and set up the chessboard, playing backgammon with her.

As for backgammon, Li Jiyao's game is not bad, unlike Go, which is bad in one hand.The innocent girl couldn't keep her mouth shut, and she spit out the grievances in her stomach with Mrs. Gong, saying that Emperor Li Zimo banned her from entering the palace for no reason, and her own parents said she should.After all, the princess didn't think there was anything wrong with Hua Xiyan, but thought that everyone was discussing Hua Xiyan's rights and wrongs in this way, and felt wronged for Hua Xiyan.

Mrs. Gong listened to her left and right words of Yan Shangshu, and when she described Hua Xiyan with an obvious scar on her face, Linglong behind her screamed in a low voice: Isn't this what she and her wife were in the inn before? The mother and son you met?
"Linglong, what are you talking about? Have you met Yan Shangshu?" Li Jiyao caught Linglong's low cry and asked.

Mrs. Gong stood in front of Linglong, and smiled slightly: "Princess, she is confused. Yan Shangshu is the one who serves the Holy Majesty in the palace. How could she be a maid on the street?"

"That's right." Li Jiyao had no doubts, she raised her brows and said, "My emperor's brother has such a temper, the person he likes must be bound by his side. I asked her to come out of the palace to find me, but I thought, it's hard, sad to go to the blue sky .”

Madam Gong smiled slightly.

"Master Gong going home for dinner?" Li Jiyao saw her maid Sanqi urging her to return home for dinner, and she didn't really want to go back, so she asked.

Mrs. Gong shook her head: "He is busy with business, so he probably won't come back."

Li Jiyao clapped her hands happily: "In this way, I can stay here for dinner."

Sanqi could only roll her eyes at her master who had no rules at all.

Of course Mrs. Gong would not refuse her to stay.

Li Jiyao stuck out her tongue at Madam Gong: "In my mansion, my father and mother don't care about me anymore, and I want to hold a lantern festival for the Queen Mother. On that day, I will go to Madam's house to hide, okay?"
