Chapter 23

Yan Ruren and Yang stood up together, together with more than 20 young and beautiful women and their maidservants, bowed their knees to Changsun, and said in unison: "I will take my leave."

When everyone went out, Changsun asked Yin Nuo to hand Su Lin a dozen papers. Su Lin took it and opened it suspiciously. Seeing the content, her heart skipped a beat. Jing Liu, Jing Yan, Li Kuan's two nanny, Four second-class eunuchs, eight second-class maids, twenty rough maids, twenty third-class maids, twenty third-class eunuchs, and 76 pieces of paper were all of them except Lianniang, Li Kuanxian and Li Kuanxian. The deeds of sale of all the slaves are provided, one is the land deed of the landlord of seven hectares of fertile land outside Chang'an City named Su Lin, and there are gold tickets with a total of 5 taels of gold. After reading it, Su Lin contacted her for a while What happened, thinking about the intention of Xia Changsun's doing so, is probably related to her first-class martial arts. After knowing the preciousness and usefulness of first-class fighters from Li Shimin's mouth, she felt aggrieved, depressed, joyful, and relieved. But after getting these things from Changsun, she really understood the importance of warriors Li Shimin said. After a while, she handed the bundle of valuable papers to Lianniang who was standing beside her, and from then on Standing up on the cushion, he went to the hall and bowed his knees to Mrs. Changsun, saying, "Thank you, my concubine."

Seeing Su Lin's expressionless expression, Changsun nodded inwardly, feeling that Su Lin's state of mind is still good to this extent, and said with a slight smile: "Congratulations on your advancement to a first-class martial artist, I also prepared some medicinal materials Bring the brocade silk and satin with you when you go back to Qiyuan. In addition, you don’t need to register with me when you enter and leave the mansion. Just send someone to tell your mother where you have gone and when you will come back. The number of slaves in your Qiyuan will be doubled. , How much do you need to send someone to get it from the big housekeeper or ask someone to go outside to find a matchmaker to buy it in and then go to the big housekeeper to make a record. I have a separate account book for you in the accounting room. Except for the exception of Kuan'er's share, additional money and items not exceeding 3000 taels of silver will be withdrawn."

The ration of children in the fifth-rank palace is 50 taels of silver per month, two sets of new clothes and shoes and other miscellaneous things stipulated by the legal system, and the total needs are about three to four hundred taels of silver. Seven hectares, 400 shilumi per month, and some other salaries vary. After learning from Li Shimin that he will cultivate Su Lin from another aspect, Changsun decided to directly give the regular salaries of Ruren and the fifth-rank official first. Su Lin, if Su Lin is useful in the future, she will add more things according to Su Lin's immediate situation, but Mrs. Sun will stop talking about this aspect, or say anything more. Thinking of the reason, she I smiled lightly in my heart.

When they first got married, Shimin didn't believe her and was afraid of her bad things, so he only told her what she needed to pay attention to among the few important points that had to be faced by the two of them together, and she knew that she and Shimin would never be able to truly do each other A pair of ordinary couples who share property, share difficulties, share the same mind, especially the people of the world, she spends her mind thinking about the world's major issues, and also hopes that Tang Li's family will be stable and the people will live and work in peace and contentment, but the starting point is Shimin's future and grandson This is doomed to conflicts and conflicts between her and Shimin. She has no way out, and the future is difficult but bright and bright. So she handles things carefully from the beginning and deepens Shimin's trust and love for her step by step. In a sense, she has achieved the level of heart-to-heart communication that ordinary couples share in the same fate, and now she and Shimin have given each other the greatest trust they can give, except for the really insignificant trivial things and those who have a little relationship. The people of the world no longer hide from her, including the resolved and unresolved government affairs and military affairs in the court, every important force involved and will be involved in the Qin Palace, and his strategy of employing people to handle affairs, etc.

During this period, the countless temptations of you advancing and retreating, you retreating and advancing, also allowed her to gradually divide the range of things she can control and the boundaries that she cannot control in the matters facing the Qin Palace, and the world. The people get along more and more tacitly. Su Lin and Li Kuan's clothing, food, housing, transportation, slaves, some rewards and security, and their disputes with other people in the palace are all things she can and must manage, but Su Lin will be the focus of the world. The matter of cultivation has already belonged to Shimin's government affairs. When she doesn't need to completely destroy Su Lin and Li Kuan, she won't cross the line to take care of anything. Thinking of Su Lin's dispute with others, Changsun frowned. He lowered his brows, picked up his teacup and took a sip of water, put down his voice and said softly: "Su Ruren, what happened to Jing Hong was done by Liang Niang next to Yan Ruren. Liangniang, you don't have to take it too seriously."

The Yan family is now powerful and standing on the side of the Qin Palace. The Yanru people are one of the bonds of cooperation between the two forces. The Changsun family doesn't mind Su Lin going to the trouble of the Yanru people's slaves to take a sigh of relief, but if Su Lin relies on martial arts It wouldn't be good to go directly to Yanru people to trouble them and get out of hand.

Hearing that there was no doubt in Changsun's tone, Su Lin's heart, which was a little excited because of the huge reward for a moment of "getting rich", slowly calmed down. Subconsciously, she didn't believe what Changsun said about Yanruren, but she didn't immediately Ask for details or refute, if Changsun said the facts, she must accept Changsun's favor, if Changsun wants to provoke her to fight Yanru people to the death, she will only ask Changsun to give clues about the Jinghong incident It was wiped clean, and there was no point in saying more, so I thought for a while and said: "I understand, thank you for the generous reward, if there is nothing else, I will retire first."

Mrs. Changsun nodded, and Su Lin took the deep maidservant and Li Kuan out of the main hall, took three big carts of things, and prepared to go back to Qiyuan to think about the next action or inaction.

Song Yu came out from the main courtyard, and after receiving Yan Ruren's stare and a warning from Yan Ruren's wife, Xu Niang, who had just arranged for her, she took three maids and Xu Niang to Su Ruren from the main courtyard to Qi Niang. Waiting on the road that must pass through the courtyard, watching the two neat rows of osmanthus trees planted beside the green brick road not fully blooming, smelling the faint fragrance of osmanthus in the air, I just want to find a place to cry.

When Gao Ai found Song Ai with an exquisite wooden lunch box, she saw that Song Ai's pretty face was full of desolation, and she was stunned, but she didn't say anything, and only handed Song Ai the lunch box containing delicate snacks. Hey, just leave here.

Both she and Song Yu came from aristocratic families, but they were not from aristocratic families. They were only attached to a small family with only two or three hundred people in the total number of masters and servants of the Yan family. Qiao, Mrs. Song's appearance is beautiful, it's not bad if she is not top-notch, the two of them follow the family's teachings when dealing with others, and they always regard peace as the most important thing in dealing with others. All of these were named by the mistress of the Yan family and entered the palace with Yan Ruren as a concubine as a dowry. Song Yu was more lively and more likely to be favored by others. After entering the mansion for a year, she was promoted as a concubine who was slightly higher than the concubine. Compared with Song Yu, her temperament is a little withdrawn, and she is not very favored by the prince. At first, she could only follow Yan Ruren and do some maid work. She endured that tone, and in order to get rid of the lowly concubine With her identity, she has served Yan Ru people wholeheartedly for three years, and at the same time, she has given the prince the most suppleness, caring, and warmth she can show during the few days of being favored. Finally, she got a good word from the prince a year ago, and then There is Liangniang who is beside Yanruren, and she has also been raised as a concubine. She can live out of Yanruren's courtyard, has a maidservant who serves her, and has the right to develop her own power. Although she has few rights, she has finally seen it Relatively good days ahead.

However, she is still not as favored as Song Yu. Even if she tries harder to hold the people around her and do everything Yanru people order as a concubine, she still fails to get Yanru people's attention, so Yanru people are not very ordinary. Using her, she usually puts eye drops on other concubines and Ruren in front of the prince, speaks kindly to the Yanru people after they lose their temper with the prince, or extracts some news from the prince. She was also jealous of Song Yu who had the same status as her but lived a better life than her. You must know that every time she did something for Yan Ruren, she would get a lot of rewards. This is because they entered the palace as concubines without bringing a slave A bit of a dowry foothold.

But this time, Yan Ruren's actions not only made her feel cold, but also made her feel lucky that she would not show indifference. She knew that Yan Ruren was going to deal with Su Ruren, and she also knew that Lianniang and Jing Liu who were able to get close to Su Ru's body now Not to mention that he couldn’t buy him off, he also monitored the inside and outside of Qi’s courtyard tightly and firmly. In addition, the prince had clearly expressed his love for Su Ruren during this period of time, making Yan Ruren unable to do anything when he was holding grudges. Thinking about using other ways to destroy Su Ruren's chance to stand up, based on this purpose, she also participated in Liangniang's plan a few days ago. The original plan was to let Song Yu find opportunities to approach Su Ruren step by step. Three months, at least half a year or a year is fine. In this way, not only will the plan be more detailed, the progress will be smoother and more natural, and it will not be easy for Su Ruren to see anything. Wait for Song Yu to find or create an opportunity to use a conspiracy once. It is easier and safer to escape after trampling Su Ruren and the healthy second prince to death.

But last night, Liangniang was suddenly killed by Changsun's family on the grounds of causing trouble in the backyard of the palace, and the matter was settled with a roll of mats. She and Song Wei were called over by Yan Ruren in the middle of the night and reprimanded for more than two hours. Up to now, there is no water or food Forget it, she can understand the heartache of Yan Ruren's sudden loss of an arm, but Yan Ruren hastily and eagerly arranged for Yan Ruren to assassinate Yan Ruren and asked Song Wei to block the knife for Su Ruren, so as to make Song Wei one step closer to Su Ruren, or simply It was unacceptable for Yan Yu to kill Su Ruren directly by being more fierce.

She thinks that Yan Ruren is simply crazy. In her opinion, Su Ruren looks innocent, but as the second woman in the palace to give birth to a boy, Su Ruren is by no means a simple person in terms of this well-known fact. If you don't prepare well, pave the way, and set up a good situation, so that Su Ruren can't retreat, you must accept Song Aunt's kindness, and then express enough kindness to Song Ai, even if Song Aunt succeeds in blocking the knife for Su Ruren in a hurry, I am afraid that he will not easily gain Su Ruren's trust and be entrusted with important tasks by Su Ruren quickly, let alone find or create an opportunity to erase Su Ruren and the second prince very quickly.

She told Yan Ruren all the words, but Yan Ruren not only refused to listen and slapped her, but also threatened her and Song Yu with their and their family's life and future. As a matter of fact, although Su Ruren's family background is weak and his father is dead, but because her husband is a fourth-rank general, her mother is an out-and-out wife of the fourth-rank Commandery Junjun. The reason is that if the Yan family framed and moved the patriarch in the name of chaos for the sake of Yanru people's mood They are not unknown people, but generals who have titles from the official rank to the fourth rank, who have led tens of thousands of troops and fought many victories. , the official positions are not prominent and they have no titles, and their mothers naturally have no imperial orders, not to mention that their families are still attached to the Yan family. If they are not finished, they will have no future at all. As for their lives, they are probably no different from ants in the eyes of Yanru people. If they are killed, they will be killed. The Song family and the Gao family have no ability to redress their grievances. Will uphold justice for them or something.

Thinking that Song Ai, who has always been favored by Yanru people, is just used as an ordinary tool by Yanru people, and she may be the next to be abandoned. It was the first time that I felt that my life was so cheap, and it was not much different from the slaves in the mansion whose deeds were in the hands of everyone. In the first two years of entering the mansion, she did do the work of maids and women, but after all, she She is from aristocratic background, and she is not a fool. The slaves saw that they could not fool her, so they chose to respect her, and some of them surrendered to her, hoping that she would rise step by step, and helped her do a lot. She looks more dangerous and dirty. It is true that there is no one to take care of the chaotic things, but the situation has never been as gloomy as this time.

No matter how well Yan Ruren said it, he just asked Yan Ai to stab Song Ai's arm, but the knife has no eyes, and Yan Ai is a master with a problem in his mind. Isn't Mrs. Song just risking her life for a chance?Take a ten thousand step back and say that Yan Yan will not make any unplanned mistakes this time. Only Song Ai's arm will be stabbed, but if the treatment is not timely or the healing plaster is not good enough, Song Ai's arm will be scarred by the prince. Disgusted, what else is there to say in this life?It's not worth it no matter what!
Therefore, Gao Yu seriously suspects that Yan Ruren's plan is to let Yan Ruren assassinate Su Ruren. At that time, only the maid who was arranged next to Song Yu and Yan Yu last night will move a little while Song Yu and Su Ruren are talking. Step by step, gently block the maidservant next to Su Ruren, and let Yan Ai rush to Su Ruren's side smoothly. If Yan Ai can't successfully assassinate Su Ruren, maybe there is still a chance to stab the second prince after stabbing Su Ruren. ?After Yan Yan's brain went wrong, she was much stronger.

In this way, Song Yu and Yan Teng must surely die, but it is worthwhile for Yanruren to exchange the lives of two wives for the lives of a Ruren and a prince.

Wiping the cold tears off her face, Gao Yu couldn't help frowning due to the pain on her left cheek, then she walked away from this place that was about to become a place of right and wrong, thinking about how to force her this trip The act of sending things is picked up afterwards.
