Fengming Tianxia's Concubine Empress

Chapter 141 Saving the Image
"Miss, it's the lord. The lord said that you must be very tired from dancing last night, so he told the slaves not to disturb you."

"My lord? Brother, has he been here?" Su Mei asked suspiciously.

"Yes, the prince came over after the morning court. Seeing that you were sleeping soundly, miss, he left. He said that he would inform him after you woke up, and then we will go to bid farewell to the emperor together."

"Oh." Su Mei nodded.

Zi Yan ran to Su Mei's side very gossip, and whispered: "Miss, the dance you danced last night was so beautiful, everyone is saying that you are a descendant of heaven! By the way, miss, servant girl I'm going to bring you breakfast now." Saying that, Zi Yan picked up the washbasin and backed out.

Unexpectedly, the news spread so fast. I believe that it won't be long before the whole Dijiao Kingdom will know that the newly-appointed Princess Xiangrui is a peerless beauty.But, what kind of consequences will this bring?Will it help to find Yancui?
Shanghuang Kingdom, in the study of Prince Qi's Mansion.

Shang Junyuan stood in front of the window, fiddling with the peacock bamboo on the window sill, his eyes gleaming with seemingly absent worries.

Shang Junyuan was conferred the title of King of Qi on the day before his big wedding. When Shang Junyuan received the imperial decree, he was still in Jiangzhou City, but the entire Shanghuang Kingdom and even the entire continent already knew about it. After hearing the news that Shang Junyuan canonized as the king of Qi, except for the ceremony of canonization, he received the same treatment as the king of Qi. Naturally, when he married Yu Haoya, the princess of Longyu Kingdom, he also held it according to the etiquette of the side concubine of the palace. of.

Suddenly, the door creaked and was pushed open, and the butler Shang Yi walked in slowly, saluted respectfully and said, "My lord, are you looking for me?"

Hearing this, Shang Junyuan turned around and looked at Shang Yi sternly, the look in his eyes was completely different from just now.

"The king has not been in the mansion these few days, what happened in the mansion?" Shang Junyuan asked coldly, his tone was surprisingly indifferent, and there was a hint of anger between his words.

Shang Yi was taken aback when he heard the words, he didn't expect that Shang Junyuan, who has always been indifferent to the affairs of the mansion, would care about these things today?However, how can the affairs in this mansion be explained clearly in one or two sentences?
Shang Yi thought for a while and said, "Report to the lord, everything in the house is fine, please rest assured, the lord."

"Really?" Shang Junyuan asked coldly, raising his eyes to look at Shang Yi, as if saying that you were lying.

It's just that Shang Yi kept his head down all the time, and he didn't see the look in Shang Junyuan's eyes at all. He still nodded respectfully and said, "Yes."

"Hmph." Shang Junyuan snorted coldly, and then slammed the table.

"Everything is safe? Well, everything is safe, so safe that you can hurt people's lives at will?"

Shang Yi never thought that Shang Junyuan would suddenly become so angry, and immediately fell to his knees on the ground, with his hands on the ground, his forehead pressed tightly against the ground, and the whole appearance of pleading guilty, he continued to yell Said: "Forgive me, my lord, this slave deserves to die."

"Forgive me? Damn it? Shang Yi, you have been with me since childhood, and you are also someone I trust very much, but now, I don't know if I should call you Shang Yi or Yu Yi?" Strongly disappointed.

As soon as Shang Yi heard it, he immediately understood, and hurriedly explained: "My lord, this servant didn't intend to hide the fact that the side concubine beat the servant girl in the mansion to death with a stick. When the servant heard about this, he rushed over quickly, but who knows when the servant rushed over? When we arrived, the servant girl was already dying and couldn't be saved, slave."

Before Shang Yi could finish speaking, Shang Junyuan interrupted him, "So you just concealed it and didn't report it?" His tone was as cold as ever.

"The servant deserves to die, please forgive me." The matter has come to this point, it is useless to explain more, all Shang Yi can do is kowtow to apologize.

"Shang Yi, since you have been with me for many years, I will spare you this time, but the death penalty is inevitable, and the living crime is inevitable. I will punish you with half a year's salary. Go back and think about it! Step down!"

"Yes, I thank my master for not killing me. I will think about it when I go back. I will resign." Shang Yi said and retreated.

It's just that Shang Yi didn't go far when he was blocked by the dark wind.

"Dark Wind?" Shang Yi was suddenly blocked, and said in surprise after looking up and seeing that it was Dark Wind.

"Shang Yi, you have always been upright and upright, and you have never made any mistakes all this time, but this time, you really disappointed the prince. You also know that although the prince is not in the palace, the people in the palace, big and small Is there anything that the prince doesn't know about? The execution of the servant girl is a trivial matter, but seeing the big from the small is enough to see a person's nature. Don't you think this side concubine is a virtuous and virtuous person? Is she worthy of our master? Shang Yi, don't blame brother for talking too much, you have to recognize the situation clearly, don't be used by others, alas." Dark Wind shook his head, then patted Shang Yi on the shoulder and walked away up.

Why didn't Shang Yi know this? In fact, it wasn't that he concealed it, but that his side concubine Yu Haoya had cried and begged him not to tell Shang Junyuan about it. Seeing his pity, he suppressed the matter and wanted to It is not uncommon for one or two servant girls to die in the mansion, therefore, this matter has passed like this, who knows that Shang Junyuan would be so concerned about this matter, is he caring about the side concubine or monitoring the side concubine?It's no wonder that when the maid died, the side concubine looked so panicked.It's just that this concubine Yu, didn't the prince personally go to the Dragon Feather Kingdom to get it back?Why is this so?
Shang Yi stopped thinking about it and quickened his pace.

However, the Junya courtyard was full of uproar and chaos. Ever since she learned that the prince Shang Junyuan had returned to the mansion, the side concubine Yu Haoya started her journey of makeup and fitting.

This Junya Courtyard is one of the four courtyards of side concubines. It is located on the west side of Qi Wangfu, because Qi Wang Shangjun had never had a concubine or side concubine before he was crowned king. The concubine was alone, and she naturally assumed the role of the hostess self-righteously, but few people would obey her, which is why the maid was beaten to death with a random stick.

When she learned about Shang Junyuan's return to the mansion, she immediately ordered someone to boil chicken soup, saying that she would send it over in person to make up for the prince. She didn't know how much he loved her!

And she, of course, has to dress up.

"This dress is not good, it's too simple and elegant, change it!" Yu Haoxi said impatiently as she saw the milky white dress that the dowry maid Yan Hong took out from the closet, her eyes were full of disgust color.

This was the first time she was going to meet her husband after her wedding. How could she be more dazzling without dressing up?If he wore those plain clothes, he would look like a maid in this mansion, it would be impossible to attract Shang Junyuan's attention!Just ask, how could she allow herself to be submerged in this white world like this?

No, I can't, I have to show my talents and try to hit it with one hit!Yu Haoya vowed to cheer herself up in her heart and said.

You know, Yu Haoya hasn't seen him since the last time I saw him on the street during the Lantern Festival in Longyu Kingdom.Even on the wedding day, she didn't see him.Along the way, she was wearing a red hijab, because Xi Niang once said that it was unlucky to lift the hijab by herself, so she couldn't see Shang Junyuan along the way.

During the wedding night in the bridal chamber, she was very nervous, but she sat by the bed and waited all night, but she did not wait for Qi Wang Shang Junyuan's figure.It was not until the next morning that Shang Junyuan walked into her room, and happened to see the scene where she threw the vase. Shang Junyuan, who didn't like her in the first place, became even more disgusted with her.

Therefore, she must save her own image as soon as possible, and must make Shang Junyuan fall in love with her!

"How about this one?" Yan Hong took out a pink dress and asked.

"No, it's still too plain. Bring me that big red dress. This wedding dress is naturally more festive."

"Yes."

After a while, Concubine Yu walked towards the study with the carefully cooked chicken soup.

Looking at the plain figures all over the yard, Yu Haoya felt disgusted in her heart, which reminded her of her sister, Shangguan Wanchun, who had been called for more than ten years, because Shangguan Wanchun had been a prime minister since she came back from Luoya. Therefore, when she saw these people in plain clothes, she would feel disgusted.

Yu Haoya said bitterly in his heart: "If the lord gives me the power of housekeeper, the first thing I have to deal with is the intentional dressing of the servants in this mansion. It must not be like this!"

When she was approaching the door of the study, she straightened her clothes again, showing what she thought was the most beautiful smile, and walked gracefully towards the door.

"Side concubine." The servant guarding the door said respectfully.

"En." She nodded, and asked with what she thought was the most beautiful voice, "Is the prince there?"

"Reporting to my concubine, the prince is discussing political affairs in the study."

"Well, I got it." Yu Haoya raised his legs and walked forward, but was blocked by a servant.

Yu Haoya was very upset when she saw her way was blocked by a servant, but she didn't dare to be too presumptuous, so she could only suppress her anger, looked up at him suspiciously, her eyes were full of grievances.

"Concubine side, please stay. The prince is discussing matters, so it is inconvenient to see guests. Concubine side please forgive me." The servant said very respectfully.

"My concubine won't disturb the prince, I just went in to deliver this chicken soup to the prince." She continued to take two steps forward, but before she could take a step, she was blocked again.

Before she could open her mouth to ask questions, the servant said indifferently: "Please don't embarrass the servant, the servant is only following orders, and no one is allowed to enter during the prince's discussion."

Yu Haoya's smiling face instantly froze, she wanted to lose her temper, but when she raised her eyes to look at the somewhat cold door of the study, for a moment, she felt as if she was lying on ice, Icy cold.

"If that's the case, then I won't go in, I'll just wait here for the prince to come out." Yu Haoya took the chicken soup to the side, and when he turned around, he squinted at the servant, muttering : What a fox pretends to be a tiger!

It's just unfortunate that this sentence was really heard by the boy. You must know that those who can guard the door of the study are either masters or masters of masters. He can hear any slight voice. It was clear and clear, not to mention this small muttering sound?

I saw the little servant frowned slightly. Some time ago, he had heard about a maidservant in the palace who was beaten to death by the side concubine. At first he thought it was just a rumor, but when he saw it today, he realized that the side concubine It is indeed possible to do such a thing, but why does the prince still ask to marry such a woman with no virtue, no talent and no conscience?So what if she is better than a fairy?

He was still standing there straight, and she was holding the tray dignifiedly with both hands, looking into the room expectantly.

An hour later, Yu Haoya was very tired standing outside the door, she felt that she was a little dizzy, especially her arms holding the tray were sore and numb.She lamented in her heart, praying for Shang Junyuan to end the discussion quickly, but what she didn't know was that Shang Junyuan in the study was sitting on a chair, concentrating on looking at the book of war in his hand, sometimes frowning, sometimes thinking , Sometimes he would write down his opinions in a book, but there was no one else in the room except him, and there was no discussion at all.
