Splendid concubine

Chapter 22
Liu Rujian was very happy when she saw that her goal had been achieved, but she pretended to be thinking of her on the surface.

"Father, don't blame my sister. My sister definitely didn't do it on purpose."

"Sister, if there is nothing else, I will leave first." Liu Ruyi said, she put her hands around her arms pretending to be cold.

Liu Xuanshuang only felt an indescribable anger rising in her heart.Since when did she also learn to pretend to be pitiful?Make her feel a little embarrassed if she acts like a baby.

"Okay, Yi'er, you'd better go back quickly." Prime Minister Liu said.

Liu Ruyi returned to Qianjingju, Xiangyi looked at Liu Ruyi and said happily: "Miss, today you were not bullied by the eldest lady, but the eldest lady, who was so angry that your body trembled a little."

"This is just the beginning, Xiangyi, remember, you don't need to be afraid of anyone in the future. With Miss here, no one can bully you, whoever bullies you is bullying me."

"Miss, look at what you said, we were indeed looked down upon by servants and bullied by ladies before, but now, hasn't your status changed?" Xiangyi said.

"Although there are some improvements, after all, my identity is a concubine, and my status is not very stable. If I don't do something, we may soon be beaten back to our original shape. And the exclusion of those brothers and sisters, Even if things change now, they won't be afraid of us."

"Miss, why are you thinking of so many things now? Hearing what you said, it seems that we can't take it lightly. I don't want to go back to the old days." Xiangyi said with some fear.

"Xiangyi, don't worry, Miss will definitely guard our position." Liu Ruyi comforted.

"Well, I believe you!" Xiangyi looked at her and said.

When Liu Xuanshuang returned to the Xiangxie Residence where she lived, she clenched her fists tightly and her face was pale.

Minglan looked at Liu Xuanshuang's appearance, and she couldn't help but said worriedly: "Miss, change your clothes quickly, or you will catch a cold."

"No, let's go to my mother first. Today, I didn't expect to be framed by her instead of taking her into the army. I'm not convinced!"

"Miss, the body is more important." Minglan persuaded.

"Don't be too wordy, come with me." Liu Xuanshuang thought that if she went like this, her mother would be angry with Liu Ruyi.Anyway, my father didn't see how they fell into the water.She wants to blame all the crimes on her, and she wants her mother to go to her father to sue her!After all, she is his daughter from the concubine, and Liu Ruyi is from the concubine. In terms of strength and status, she will never be able to compare with her!
In the Emerald Pavilion, Mrs. Zhao was still recuperating from her injuries, when she was bored.She heard hurried footsteps outside.

"Mother, look that I fell into the water today, and it was all caused by that bitch!" Liu Xuanshuang said angrily, completely lacking her usual calm appearance.

"Shuang'er, who caused you to fall into the water and made you so angry!" asked Zhao in surprise.

"Who else but her?" Liu Xuanshuang said angrily.

"Shuang'er, don't get angry, and don't pay attention to losing your original demeanor. Women should be beautiful at any time, you know?" Zhao said.

"Yes, mother, I understand." Liu Xuanshuang nodded, she suddenly felt a little cold, so she couldn't help shivering.

"Minglan, what do you do as a maid, Miss is soaked through, why don't you hurry back and get a clean dress!" Zhao said angrily to Minglan.

"Ma'am, it's Miss..." Ming Lan wanted to say something more, but Liu Xuanshuang looked at her eyes and said nothing.

"Mother, aren't you angry at all? Liu Ruyi got your daughter into the water." Liu Xuanshuang said with some doubts.

"Shuang'er, mother has asked someone to call your father just now. You should go back first. Your health is important. As for your matter, I will talk to my father properly." Zhao was worried about her health, so she said this .

"Yes, mother." Liu Xuanshuang went back seeing that her goal had been achieved.

When Prime Minister Liu came to the Emerald Pavilion, he saw the painful expression on Mrs. Zhao's face on the bed, and said worriedly, "Why is Madam's wound still hurting?"

"The injury on my body doesn't matter, it's just that my heart hurts."

"Oh? What the hell happened?"

"I feel sorry for Shuang'er! My lord, think about it, Shuang'er is our precious daughter. We have cultivated her to develop in all aspects since she was a child, so she is impeccable both in appearance and inwardness. We I have always been proud of her, but she made a fool of herself again and again yesterday. Didn't your lord investigate properly? Don't let others take this opportunity away!"

"Ma'am, what are you talking about? I've investigated, but I haven't found out who is behind the scenes!" Prime Minister Liu was also very anxious when he thought of his daughter's constant accidents yesterday.

"My lord, my daughter told me yesterday that she made a fool of herself at the dinner party, but Liu Ruyi unexpectedly got the governor's attention! Don't you think it's suspicious? Is our Shuang'er only like this? We can't let her miss this opportunity, and today Shuang'er fell into the water, isn't she here? Could it be that Shuang'er's falling into the water has nothing to do with her?"

"Ma'am, you misunderstood. It was Shuang'er who let Yi'er fall into the water. As for her suspicion, I think you think too much. Although my daughter has made a fool of herself this time, I will still find a way to get her to find someone better." A good opportunity is close to the prince. I will go to the governor and talk about it. Madam, please don't worry too much. Even if Yi'er unexpectedly shines this time, her identity is there after all. You don't need to worry about her Grab something."

"My lord, you were not like this before. After all, Liu Ruyi is not your eldest daughter. How can she compare to our Shuang'er, she is not at all!"

"What was it like in the past? I have more than one daughter. I used to ignore her too much. Well, you don't need to worry too much about Shuang'er. I will go to the governor now, Madam, don't worry. .”

"Okay, you go." Zhao Shi actually wanted to say something more, but she suddenly felt that the current prime minister was very strange.But she knows that as long as her family's power does not fall.The prime minister will not really favor one person over another.After all, only her daughter is the real descendant.

Prime Minister Liu was making all kinds of calculations in his mind. Although Liu Ruyi's status was not high, after all, his use value was much higher now. As for Mrs. Zhao, only she could help him back then, if it wasn't for her support all the way!Will he sit where he is now?After all, they are a couple who share weal and woe.Look at the Buddha's face even if you don't look at the monk's face.Shuang'er is her precious daughter, and she will not abandon her easily unless it is absolutely necessary.After thinking about it, he sent someone to find the governor.

The governor was invited to Prime Minister Liu's mansion.

"I don't know if the prime minister is looking for me. What's the matter?" The governor was at a loss.

"It's like this. I apologize to you for the accident that happened yesterday! My Shuang'er is indeed versatile. What happened before was accidental. Look at these, these are all the works of my little girl."

Prime Minister Liu waved his hand, and the servants immediately brought some things up.

It was some embroidery, and a few sheets of written poems.

The embroidery is very delicate.Those calligraphy are also relatively good.The sound of the piano that the governor listened to before was really wonderful, which shows that the daughter raised by the prime minister is indeed very good.

Prime Minister Liu looked at the governor's face, and said: "Yesterday, what my Yier did made you laugh. After all, she is not as good as my eldest daughter."

The governor saw what he said, and he understood what he meant.

"Since this is the case, if there is nothing else, I will go first." The governor said.

"Okay, then I'll take you out."

"Then there will be Mr. Prime Minister Lao."

The Governor left the Prime Minister's Mansion, and on the way back, he couldn't help but sigh.They are also his daughters, but why does he favor one over the other?Indeed, my younger sister is not as beautiful as my elder sister, but she is very thoughtful and talented.It would be unfair to say nothing because of this.And looking at her appearance that day, he thought of an old friend.

His inspection in the past few days has not yet ended, so he has not met the emperor yet.He also has to go to a place to inspect and see.

A few days later, the governor entered the palace to meet the emperor.

In the afternoon, the emperor and empress were taking a walk in the imperial garden.

The emperor looked at the flower bed full of blooming flowers, and he said with a smile: "The queen will have an annual flower appreciation meeting in one month. Are you ready to invite anyone?"

"Your Majesty, who else can there be? Of course they are the same people as in the past, but this time we have to see the results of the governor's inspection."

"Your Majesty, the governor is asking to see you." A servant stepped forward to report.

"It's true that Cao Cao and Cao Cao will be here." The emperor couldn't help laughing.

"See Your Majesty! The results of my minister's inspection have come out." The governor said.

"Okay, then tell me."

The governor wanted to tell the truth, but he remembered what Prime Minister Liu said, so he omitted the accidents that happened to Liu Xuanshuang in the prime minister's mansion. He also mentioned Liu Ruyi's outstanding performance, but he didn't emphasize it emphatically.Just a little mention.

"So she was the one who sang that song? I didn't expect that as a concubine lady, she would be so talented! Compared with those concubine ladies, she is not inferior at all!" The emperor thought of the song and that sentence that was spread yesterday. talk.He felt that this woman was really special.So he discussed with the queen whether to bring her into the palace a month later.The Queen also agreed.

The governor thought to himself, is his action today right or wrong?He couldn't help being a little worried, whether that woman was as pure-hearted as her, and would she not adapt if she entered the palace?After all, there is still a difference between inside and outside the palace.Every step in the palace is frightening!
