"Chun Xiao, is your news accurate?" I didn't expect Concubine Hua to start preparations so early, it seems that it is inevitable!
"Well, the concubine, the servant girl and the Du Juan in the courtyard of the concubine Hua have spoken several times. This is also found out by the servant girl. I heard that the concubine Hua invited the eldest lady to be a nun in the palace. These days The eldest lady has never gone out, so Concubine Hua probably meant that." Chun Xiao said in a hurry, Shen Jingshu listened, although she was a little surprised before, but after thinking about it, Shen Jingshu could still understand Concubine Hua's painstaking efforts.
Concubine Hua doesn't have a daughter, so if she wants her daughter to marry well, marrying the royal family is naturally the best choice. This will not only make King Duan look at her differently, but also make her daughter prosperous and prosperous in the future. But…
Since ancient times, emperors have been ruthless, and affairs in the royal family have been ever-changing. It is certainly beneficial to marry a prince, but if you make a wrong bet and the prince will pay homage to you in the future, the result will be equally miserable. What's more, what's in King Duan's mind, this side concubine Hua probably doesn't know
Thinking of what Prince Duan had said to her, Shen Jingshu was also a little worried when she learned that Concubine Hua had such thoughts, "Chun Xiao, do the princes know about this?"
"My lord seems to know about it, and I heard that he is very supportive."
"Where is the princess?"
"The princess has spent some money on Concubine Hua in the past few days, and also sent a lot of good things. I heard that I know it."
"Really?" Prince Duan and Concubine Duan both knew, so they must have known Concubine Hua's plan, but they both wanted to make this happen, then Concubine Hua wanted Murong Qian'er to marry, could it be...
Thinking of a possibility, Shen Jingshu felt surprised. If it was this person, Prince Duan might agree, but Princess Duan would definitely not. So, why
There are many puzzles in my heart, and Shen Jingshu can't find out at the moment, so I can only ask Chunxiao to continue to inquire, "I know about this, but don't talk about these things in the future, just let us know. You think Find a way to find out who Concubine Hua wants the eldest lady to marry, and then tell me!"
"Yes, Shizi Concubine!" Chun Xiao knew that Shen Jingshu would be interested in this matter, but she didn't expect Shen Jingshu to be really interested, and she was very proud at the moment.
"Well, you all go to work!" She had to think about what to do, or wait for Jin to come back later, and then ask.
"yes!"
…
Shen Jingshu didn't particularly agree with Concubine Hua's decision either. The imperial palace is a place where people eat people. Although marrying the prince can win a future, but it will also encounter a lot of troubles. If you don't have enough scheming, you don't know how you will die.
It's just that she should have thought a long time ago that Yuwen Qian'er's bearing is not cultivated according to ordinary daughters. I think these Duan Wang and Duan Wangfei are well aware of it, but they are all left to Hua side concubine. It seems that they all have their own plans. For Prince Duan, Shen Jingshu can figure it out, and for Princess Duan, maybe she will figure it out after Prince Duan's son returns, right
Confused, Shen Jingshu waited until Duan Wang Shizi came back, and she really told him what happened today, "I heard from Chunxiao today that Concubine Hua intends to let the young lady participate in next year's draft, but is it true?"
"You know about this?"
"Well, didn't you already know that?"
"I guessed it."
"Then what do you think?"
"My father naturally agrees. No matter which prince she marries, my father has no reason to object. Anyway, to my father, a daughter is just a tool, but he will make the best use of this tool." Can marry If it was given to the royal family, it would be beneficial to King Duan. Now that King Duan is being suppressed by the current emperor, he must want to find a new way out. Then he will naturally find someone who will not suppress him, and will even help him in the future, then Yuwen Qian'er can participate in the draft, whether it is selected into the palace or married to the prince, it is beneficial to Duanwang of.
"Then you said what the father means, will the eldest lady marry the sixth prince?" The sixth prince is about the same age as Yuwen Qian'er. Prince's. According to what Prince Duan told her before, the possibility of the sixth prince is very high.
"You're right, I think that's the plan of my father."
"But the princess will not agree."
"So it's impossible for her to marry the sixth prince." With Princess Duan's personality, how could she become the side concubine Hua
"So what you mean is that the concubine is helping on the surface these days, but in fact, she has other plans?"
"It's natural. She never blatantly opposes the father. What she wants to do will only come secretly. The more she supports it now, the more likely she will oppose it in the future."
"In that case, Concubine Hua should understand, why is she?" Pushing Yuwen Qian'er into the pit of fire? Isn't that her own daughter
In fact, I really can't understand what Hua side concubine did.
"This matter is supported by my father, and Concubine Hua has no sons. If she wants to stabilize her position, she can only do this." Indeed, although Yuwen Qian'er is the eldest daughter of King Duan, although she is only a concubine, but King Duan didn't have an eldest daughter, so the status of the eldest daughter of the concubine naturally increased. It's just that under the long-term suppression of Princess Duan, Concubine Hua had to hide her strength and bide her time. If Princess Duan was suppressed, she could only let Yuwen Qian'er marry into the royal family! This is their only chance to stand up!
"But if you follow the father's wishes, the eldest lady still can't escape the palm of the princess!" The sixth prince's mother, Concubine Li, is from the Dongyang Hou Mansion just like Princess Duan. This relationship, even if Yuwen Qian'er married It's not necessarily easy! Even Concubine Hua is more likely to be completely controlled by Concubine Duan, and there will be no chance to stand up again!
"So, Concubine Hua's plan is not the Sixth Prince's."
"Then what do you mean, she wants the young lady to marry the fifth prince? How is this possible?" Now the third prince is not favored, and the one with the highest voice for the throne is the fifth prince, and the concubine Xian has always been virtuous and is very much loved by the emperor. If Concubine Hua wants Yuwen Qian'er to marry the fifth prince, then her ambition is really great!
"You and I think it's impossible, and others naturally think so too. It's just that Concubine Hua comes from a wealthy family, so her thoughts will naturally not be restricted in the eyes of the world. And she will no longer let her father and princess control her, Letting Yuwen Qian'er marry the fifth prince is the best choice!" The fifth prince happens to be older than Yuwen Qian'er, and his personality has become more stable and mature in the past seven years, so he has won the emperor's trust. If Concubine Hua really succeeds, Then she must be able to rely on mother and daughter, and no longer have to worry about the problem of Princess Duan!
Just, is it possible
Shen Jingshu believed that neither the emperor nor the concubine Xian would accept the daughter-in-law of Duan Wangfu.
"Then you say, will she succeed?"
"Isn't there a saying that 'everything depends on man's effort'? Whether she can succeed or not depends on how much effort she puts in and how much effort she puts in!"
"indeed so."
"Okay, it's none of our business. It's up to them to fight whether it succeeds or not, so we don't care!"
"You, you really are. I remember you have a good relationship with the fifth prince, right?" When she was in Jiangnan, Shen Jingshu remembered that Prince Duan and the fifth prince were talking and laughing. It seems that they have a good relationship. pretty good.
"Even if it's good, it's not something I should care about. If he really doesn't want to marry, he will naturally find a way. If he can't think of a way, then he can only bear it!" Thinking of the smiling face of the fifth prince, Prince Duan Some expect the other party to change his face.
"You!" It was hard to tell that Prince Duan had such an attitude.
"But although we don't care, it's okay to add fuel to the flames when the time comes. Although the Concubine Hua is not our enemy now, it may not be the case in the future, so we can't let her be too strong!" Prince Duan said. It is very clear that if the other party is not their enemy, they can ignore the other party's life and death, but if the other party wants to be their enemy, then they will have to bear the price.
"This side concubine Hua is also a scheming person. I'm afraid that the purpose is to become a princess. It seems that even if we are allies, the relationship with us will not be very long." What's more, this person is so cunning, and he has never appeared in person now. See There is not much sincerity.
"So, we still can't do what the other party wants!"
"In the final analysis, you still don't want the fifth prince to marry the eldest lady?"
"You guessed it right!" Nodding Shen Jingshu's nose, why is his little wife so smart
"So, even though you say you don't care about the Fifth Prince, you still do, right?"
"Okay, don't talk about him anymore, this is his business, let him worry about it, let's talk about our business first!"
"Okay, I've already asked someone to tell the princess that we have to buy someone ourselves. The princess said that someone will send someone over tomorrow. How is your arrangement?"
"Don't worry, I'll let people from Zhuangzi mix in, and I'll tell you the characteristics of those people, and then you can just choose."
"Then what if the concubine inserts someone else in?"
"It depends on whether my wife is smart or not?"
"Then do you have any other people ready? I heard that the princess plans to add some people to each house!"
"What do you say?"
"Then shall I stay for a while then?"
"I'm free to arrange this. You can just choose what I pick for you. Anyway, it's just to motivate the servant girl, it doesn't have much to do with it."
"okay, I get it!"
…
The husband and wife discussed it immediately, and Princess Duan was very efficient. The next day, Ren Yazi came early in the morning and brought a lot of people. Princess Duan saw that there was a shortage of people in Shen Jingshu's yard. Let Shen Jingshu choose first. Shen Jingshu was a little embarrassed at first, but Princess Duan asked people to come directly, so she was disrespectful.
Symbolically walking around in front of those people, looking at their clothes and hands, after Shen Jingshu finished walking, she called a few people to come out together, some of them were said by Prince Duan, some of them were not.
"Tell me what you know."
"Slaves can cook and clean normally."
"The servant girl can know how to be a maid, can cook, and can do all the menial work!"
"Slaves..."
…
Because the ones to buy are basically poor maidservants, Shen Jingshu chooses those with calluses on her hands, and she looks very capable. Of course, I also chose two good female maids, who are also very delicate, one is called Yuzhu and the other is called Gu Yu. These two maids were sent by Shen Jingshu to Mingyue. They are both orphans. They were trained by Mingyue. Both of them are good at medicine, and both of them are good at reading and writing. Shen Jingshu bought it now to prepare for the future. After all, it's time for Chunmei and the others to get married.
After choosing the maids, Shen Jingshu changed their names one by one, and then told Yao Nanny to be good at training. This was not through Zhao Nanny's hands, and gave Ren Yazi a lot of rewards, and personally bought these maids. It also made people give her teeth. Mother Zhao stood aside, wanting to say something, but she didn't say anything in the end.
"Thank you, thank you, Shi Zifei, these are the contracts of sale for these people, Shi Zifei is good to keep it!"
"Thank you, the people you brought this time are very good. Next time, if I need it, I will come to you again!" For Princess Duan, whether or not to hand it over to her is not certain, after all, the family has not been separated yet!
I didn't expect that she just said something and gave the other party some benefits, and the other party agreed. Shen Jingshu looked at Ren Yazi and was sensible, so she would naturally look for the other party in the future.
"Okay, Shi Zifei, there are many people here, all kinds of people, Shi Zifei will continue to take care of the business of the people's wife if needed! The people's wife will naturally give Shi Zifei a discount!" Seeing that his behavior made the other party happy, it is very likely to cooperate again, and Ren Yazi also knows that he did a good job today. She is a smart person. Although she doesn't have much contact with the affairs of this big mansion, she knows everything about it. These masters, who doesn't want to control the servants in their own yard? It's much safer to have the deed of sale in one's own hands than in the hands of others!
She knew that this princess was not the son's own mother!
"Okay, there will definitely be cooperation in the future!" If you take control of the palace in the future, the first thing you need to do is to change all the people in it. It will be a big project at that time, and you have to take it slowly.
"Yes, yes, definitely, the woman is leaving first, and the princess is still waiting for the woman!"
"Let me go with you, so that it won't be difficult for you in a while!"
"Okay, okay!" I was still thinking for a while how to not offend both sides, this person Yazi originally planned to push the matter on Shen Jingshu, anyway, she is just a commoner, and she dare not offend people in Duanwangfu. If you want to please both parties, you should know how to do one thing to the face and another to the back. Now that Shen Jingshu is willing to help her out, Ren Yazi's gratitude to Shen Jingshu has increased, and he is very grateful for his actions just now.
Someone greeted her before she came here, and she has already gained a lot of benefits. Now that someone is willing to help her get rid of the relationship, she is naturally willing!
"Concubine Shizi, you go first!" Smiling, let Shen Jingshu walk to the front. Ren Yazi has made a lot of money today, and the money he got in private is much more than selling these people. It seems that she can make more arrangements with this concubine Shizi in the future It doesn't matter, the concubine is much more generous than the concubine.
…
When she came to the hall, Princess Duan saw that Shen Jingshu had made the choice, and asked with concern, "But all the choices have been made? Are you satisfied? If it's not enough, let someone do it again!"
"It's all been chosen, thank you, Princess, for your concern."
"That's good. After a good training, it can be used, so that you can relax."
"Well, it's just the princess. I have one thing to say. I hope the princess will not be offended."
"whats the matter?"
"We need a lot of people in our yard, and I don't want to spend money from my father, so I paid for them myself. I also want to train these people myself, so I accepted the deed of sale to prevent them from coming from outside and being disobedient. The princess won't blame me for making my own decisions, right?" Looking at Princess Duan and Shen Jingshu's appearance with some trepidation, what else can Princess Duan say? I could only bear with it, "How could it be? You also want to discipline these servants well, I understand."
"Then princess, do you want to return this deed of sale to the public?" Shen Jingshu deliberately took out the deed of sale, and Shen Jingshu felt a little annoyed about what she had done before, but with her like this, how could Princess Duan really want to come back
"No need, since it's all paid by you yourself, then it's your own people. You just have to hold the deed of sale yourself, and you can train them well in the future, lest these people don't understand the rules!" Enduring helplessness Having said that, Princess Duan regrets letting Shen Jingshu choose first, otherwise Shen Jingshu will not let Shen Jingshu take advantage of the loophole and control these people in her own hands!
She still doesn't know what kind of people the other party bought. It's okay if they are just rough servant girls, but what if it's something else? Didn't she shoot herself in the foot with a rock
"Thank you, princess. I am also a little worried. After all, these people are not family-born children. There are many things that need to be disciplined. I am also afraid that if their deeds of sale are not in my hands, they will be disobedient. It is good that the princess does not blame her."
"How could it be? It's great that you can think like this, and you'll be fine-tuned in the future!"
"Yes!" Shen Jingshu took the initiative to say, and Ren Yazi was also relieved, so that she didn't have to worry about making excuses later and being scolded by Princess Duan, after all, this person is not a messy master. If someone hadn't given her a lot of money before, she wouldn't have dared to agree.
I was still a little scared, seeing that the matter was settled now, Ren Yazi also put on a smiling face, "Princess, these maids and servants brought by the women this time are all very good, the concubine should take a good look, if you don't I like it, and next time the women will bring some to the princess to ensure that the princess is satisfied!" After speaking, the person who started to brag about himself came, and Princess Duan was not in the mood at the moment, just looked at a few casually, and let her teeth go away. Ren Yazi got the money and left happily, but this time the princess was not very happy!
"This imperial concubine is becoming more and more capable now!"
