Concubine Tang through space

Chapter 16

The next morning after Yu Niang recovered from her illness, Su Lin took Lianniang, Jing Liu, and four maidservants to the main courtyard. The women and maids who served them, Su Lin said calmly and expressionlessly after she finished the ceremony and sat down: "Sister Wangfei, my concubine's nanny was frightened by this illness, and her mood was a little unstable. I want to send her nanny back to Su Mansion, I would like to ask the concubine sister to make it easier."

Yu Niang's deed of prostitution is in Su Lin's hands. Strictly speaking, she is not a slave of the mansion, but Su Lin's slave. However, Yu Niang is one of the stewardesses who walked through the Ming Road of the Wang Mansion, and took a With a salary of one and a half years, if you want to send Yu Niang out of the mansion without any trouble afterwards, according to the rules, you must first tell the Changsun family to get the Changsun family's release order.

In terms of etiquette and tone, there was nothing wrong with what Su Lin said, but to Changsun's ears, she felt that Su Lin was not as obedient as before, but she suffered such a big loss with the prince by her side, and almost died of poison. From Changsun's point of view, it is normal for Su Lin to vent a little more arrogantly. She lowered her eyes slightly, and Changsun asked unhurriedly: "My sister released Yu Niang, and there is only one nurse in charge and one beside her." It's time for a maidservant, there are two big vacancies, I don't know if you have a candidate for promotion in your mind?"

Su Lin saw that there was no trace of change from her breath to her expression because of her tough tone, so she knew that she didn't care about contradicting Mrs. Changsun at all. After thinking about it, she didn't answer Mrs. Changsun's words directly, and changed the subject: "Back to the princess, I think Lianniang has done a very good job, and I want to give her a favor. Her husband once served in the Tiance Army. When he died in the battle, he was the eighth-rank Xuanjie captain. I think her son has gone What does the princess think about the qualifications of Mingjing Family Studies?"

Only then did Changsun look up at Su Lin seriously, and a beautiful and happy smile appeared on the corner of her mouth for a moment: "Su Ruren, do you know that students of Mingjing clan school can't have a mother who is a slave?"

Su Lin was slightly startled, then shook her head honestly, and said: "I also ask the princess to enlighten me."

The Changsun family asked Yin Nuo to explain the rules indifferently. The rules of the Mingjing family can send their children to study as long as they work for the Tang Li family and are approved by the senior officials of the Tang Li family. There is also a strict requirement that any student's elder relatives cannot be slaves, and they may not be officials, but at least they must be innocent civilians. Ethnology was divided.

After Yin Nuo's indifferent voice fell, Chang Sun asked Yin Nuo to get Lianniang's deed of selling herself from the housekeeper, and then smiled at Su Lin: "Su Ruren has a heart, the Tiance Army has made countless military exploits for our Tang Li family. , is second only to the Xuanjia Army, and is as famous as the Xihe Army. He can become the eighth-rank Xuanjie Captain of the Tiance Army and is also a hero of the Tang Li family. His son is naturally qualified to study in the Mingjing Clan School." Her meaning could not be more clear. The son of Captain Xuanjie can go, but the son of Lianniang who is a slave cannot. The deed of sale also gave Lianniang the freedom to change her slave status, making Lianniang an innocent commoner.

The former requires Lianniang's psychological endurance to be strong enough to be willing to truly give up her life for her son, while the latter requires Su Lin to have absolutely no weak courage, to control the slaves with bonded bonds and the means necessary to control the subordinates without bonded bonds. Undoubtedly, there are two levels of realm, kindness is always limited, and if the ability and courage are not enough, if you choose the latter, sooner or later you will be backlashed by the servants.

Su Lin was silent for a while, took the deed of sale from Yin Nuo, folded it and put it in the sleeve, and smiled at Changsun: "I understand, and Princess Xie reminded me that if the princess is fine, I will leave my body in the afternoon." Your nanny has been sent out of the palace."

Mrs. Changsun nodded, with a smile on her face: "Okay, I will ask Yin Nuo to tell the housekeeper, and I will transfer Yin Yan to you to serve you by the way, what do you think?" She has great confidence in her ability to control Yin Yan. Even if Yin Yan's scheming city cannot meet her requirements, putting Yin Yan by Su Lin's side and letting Yin Yan do something without a trace seems a little bit to her. No problem at all.

Su Lin got up and bowed her knees slightly, and said expressionlessly: "Thank you, Princess, for your kindness, and I will leave you." She was cautious, but she was not so timid that she dared not even accept people who were upright and upright. It's one thing, but it's another thing to be able to subdue it. I just hope that Changsun will not regret it in the end. Yin Yan is a very good talent.

Seeing Su Lin leaving the room with the backs of her mother-in-law and a few maidservants, and gradually losing her footsteps, Changsun asked without raising her head, "Yin Nuo, look at Su Lin growing up so fast. Will there be a chance to face Yang Teng in the future?"

Yin Nuo bowed his knees and saluted, and said indifferently: "Back to the princess, I feel that if Su Ruren maintains such a state of mind and growth rate, it is still possible to restrain Yang Teng in the future."

Mrs. Changsun pondered, nodded for a while and agreed: "Indeed, she is not a cruel person at all. In this alone, she loses a lot to Yang Xi, and she can only be restrained but not matched." Said: "Mother Xuan, how did you find out about the flamingo rash? Was it Yang Xi who did it?"

Xuanniang shook her head, went to the Changsun family and bowed her knees and said: "Back to the princess, the clues found by the servants all point to Liangniang next to Yanruren, and they have not found any clues related to Yang Teng."

Mrs. Changsun frowned, and stretched out for a moment: "Continue to investigate, and if you confirm what Yan Ruren did, just kill Liang Niangzhang next to her! It's too presumptuous. Is it her Yan's mansion that she treats as Prince Qin's mansion? Before that, you First pull out some nails that the Yan family put into the mansion." Originally, those nails were nothing to her, and she also wanted to give the Yan Ru people more convenience, so that the cooperation between the Yan family and Shimin would be smoother, but Now it seems completely unnecessary, I am afraid that Yanru people don't understand the restraint that a concubine should know at all, since the Yan family has never taught Yanru people, don't blame her for making a move.

"Yes, I'm going now, slave." Niang Xuan bowed her knees and led the two second-class maids out of the room respectfully. Walking on the way to the interrogation, she took a breath slowly, suppressing the sourness in her eyes, and her complexion As the ice cooled down bit by bit, Changsun had already given Yin Yan to Su Ruren. She would only put Yin Yan in a disadvantageous situation if she asked for mercy. The adopted daughter who has devoted herself to raising her for several years, she has already regarded Yin Yan as the person who will die for her. Compared with her and other maids, the relationship is not 01:30. By the time of the news, things had become a foregone conclusion.

Thinking of the news that Yin Nuo framed Yin Yan found out by taking advantage of her position, Xuan Niang's eyes slowly filled with resentment, but she was quickly suppressed by her. Nothing is wrong.

Lianniang gritted her teeth to endure the turmoil in her heart from the moment Changsun opened her mouth. On the way from the main courtyard to the Qi courtyard, she quickly made a choice, biting her lips to swallow the sorrow full of heart, She and Su Lin entered the study room of Qiyuan, and after closing the door, she immediately knelt on the ground and said, "This servant is willing to sign a lifelong contract of sale with Ruren, and I only ask Ruren's grace to remove the son of this servant from the household registration of this servant." It's normal for a person to get something from a subordinate for free, but it's impossible to take away the contract of sale from Ruren and let Ruren help her son enter the Mingjing clan school, and let the master make concessions for a slave and suffer losses. She just She has just established a master-servant relationship with Su Ruren in another sense, and she has not made any great contribution to Su Ruren, and she is not qualified for Su Ruren to give her great grace, so she has only one way to choose in the current situation , Give up yourself to make your son.

As for giving up her son's schooling and not selling herself thoroughly, it is also tantamount to giving up her relationship with Su Ruren. From another perspective, she can only wait to be abandoned by Su Ruren, and it is impossible for a slave who was thrown away by his master as soon as he recognized his master to live again. The palace has a foothold, and leaving the palace is certain. After leaving the palace, all her hard work in the past two years will be in vain. She and her son will fall into the previous desperate situation again, and the news of being kicked out of the palace will be recorded by the toothmaid. Every boss from now on, unless she leaves Chang'an or has some great opportunity, she will no longer be reused by any boss. Slaves have been humble since ancient times. This is a dead end and there is no choice.

Rather than fantasizing about the future, it is better to grasp the present in a down-to-earth manner. At least she has chosen her son and master, and neither the master nor the son will let her suffer in the future.

Su Lin was sitting on the master seat, she could hear Lianniang's voice choked up but she was not unwilling. Before she is not strong enough, she might be in the same situation as Lianniang. In order to survive, she is the only one who can be exchanged and sold, not the slave in her hand. She closed her eyes and took out Lianniang's contract of sale from her sleeve. Pass it to Lianniang: "You first take it to the housekeeper to get rid of your slave status at the household department, and finish your son's admission to the Mingjing Clan School. In addition, I will send Yuniang back to the Su residence in the afternoon. She came to see me specially."

The Changsun family is good at divorce. No matter how much money a slave spends, he can't change his slave status by himself. Su Lin can only send someone to do it. It may not be that there is no resentment towards Su Lin who directly attacked Su Lin. It will not be obvious in a short time. If her son is filial enough in the future, the sequelae will be much smaller. But once her son is not filial enough, the relationship between the two mothers will appear. After a long time, Lianniang's loyal and grateful heart will gradually deteriorate. Ten years later, Lianniang's son will definitely get married. At that time, the relationship between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law will be difficult. Su Lin doesn't think she has the ability to solve this eternal problem, or give up now. Lianniang, who has just been accepted as a confidant, will either taste the bad results in the future.

It's a pity that the Changsun family can't count her. Su Lin is not an ordinary person in a simple sense. She still has space skills. She will have the ability to protect herself in less than ten years. If she is powerful, she doesn't need to wrong herself. If she has no power She can live well without the loyalty of others, and she has the confidence not to do such a damned thing as separating mother and child from her confidant, not to mention that she also needs to use this to further test Lianniang.
