The atmosphere in Concubine Shu's palace was a little dignified. In addition to Hou and Concubine Shu, there were also Concubine De, Concubine Rong and several princesses from the royal family present.
The prince of the county abused the princess of the county. This kind of thing is a scandal in the royal family. Although Emperor Qilong was dissatisfied with King Shengjun, he was still very dissatisfied with Hou's actions. In his opinion, it was an honor for Hou's family to marry into the royal family. Now he dares to make such a scene. The thing is, they really don't care about the royal family.
And Yan Boyi is also useless. He can't even watch his own woman, and let her make the whole city known. Even if he is dissatisfied, he can only let people take good care of Hou, and he can't let her suffer. Aggrieved, otherwise the royal family would be even more embarrassed.
The royal family is dissatisfied, and the family is not so comfortable. Although the Hou family is not the most famous family, it is also a big family. A well-bred daughter married into the royal family. As a result, the child was not kept, and there were rumors that the husband and other women were unclear Bai's gossip, now being scolded by her husband to be so embarrassed, is too disrespectful to the aristocratic family.
Although the aristocratic family was muttering in their hearts, their faces remained calm, and they were waiting for the reaction of the royal family. As for Prince Sheng, who abused his wife, his reputation in the hearts of the family and the common people had plummeted.
Seeing Hou Shi's sobbing, Concubine Shu felt very embarrassed. She was also a daughter of an aristocratic family, so she naturally favored Hou Shi in her heart, but she also knew that the emperor was dissatisfied with this matter, so how to deal with this matter, she temporarily It's really hard to decide halfway through.
As the saying goes, it is better to demolish ten temples than to destroy a marriage, but in the face of Hou Shi's skinny and embarrassed appearance, Concubine Shu couldn't open her mouth. But she didn't dare to let the two get divorced. At the beginning, the two were married by the emperor. If she said that the two were not suitable, wouldn't she mean that the emperor had no vision
It is said that marriage is to achieve the good of the two families, such as Hou Shi and Yan Boyi, it is really a sin. When Hou Shi first married, she was such a beautiful woman. In just a few years now, he has actually tossed a charming and charming woman into a dead tree.
Everyone here is a woman. Although some people are watching the fun and watching jokes, they are more regretful. Everyone is a woman, so how can they not know the suffering of women
Seeing the appearance of Hou Shi's description of being withered and unable to even cry, Concubine Shu sighed: "Relax your heart, the royal family will definitely give you justice."
When Mr. Hou entered the palace, his clothes were ragged and his hair was messy. Now, although he has been groomed for a while, the gorgeous skirt draped over his body has a feeling of emptiness, which makes people feel distressed for no reason.
Hou Shi's distracted and apathetic eyes were sluggish for a moment, then he got up and saluted Concubine Shu: "Thank you, Concubine Shu."
"Sit down quickly, you don't need to be so polite." Concubine Shu couldn't help sighing in her heart again, a person who used to be so smart, but now she's stunned to a pitiful point.
Concubine De and Concubine Rong exchanged glances, and then shook their heads helplessly. Like Concubine Shu, they were concubines who were vacant and unloved in this palace. Because they had no children, they were destined to die of old age in the harem. , so I don't want to provoke too much right and wrong.
Now that there are many supporters of King Shengjun, if he really becomes the emperor in the future, if they offend him in this matter, how will they spend the rest of their lives
Several concubines and concubines in the palace did not dare to speak easily, and Princess Ning and Princess Xu naturally would not express their opinions rashly, so everyone in the audience looked at me, I looked at you, and finally all their eyes fell on Concubine Shu.
Concubine Shu secretly complained in her heart, but her face did not reveal the slightest, she looked at Hou with a gentle expression: "You are staying in my palace for the time being, this is no trivial matter, it is better to invite all the clansmen of the royal family and above. Enter the palace and discuss how to solve it together?"
"Thank you, Niangniang," Hou Shi got up and walked to the center of the hall and knelt down, "It's just that the concubine has nothing to ask for in this life, only peace for the rest of her life, and I will never meet the King of Shengjun again."
Concubine Shu's brows were slightly wrinkled, and then she regained her gentle expression: "You said..."
"My concubine only wants to be able to reconcile with the King of Shengjun, and I would like to go to the Taoist temple to pray for the emperor and the Yan family, and will not go out again." Hou squatted heavily towards Concubine Shu, and seemed to have made up his mind. " The concubine is dead physically and mentally, please beg your concubine to be fulfilled."
"It's not that this palace is unwilling to complete it, it's just..." Concubine Shu realized that her words were inappropriate, and quickly changed her words, "This matter is no trivial matter, and this palace needs to report to Your Majesty."
"Thank you, Niangniang." Hou Shi slapped again, seeing that Concubine Shu felt pain for her, but Hou Shi's expressionless expression, as if the person with the red and swollen forehead was not herself, but someone else.
At this time, the eunuch came to report, and Princess Xian asked to see him.
Concubine Shu asked to help Hou Shi to sit on the chair next to her, and then announced to see Concubine Xian.
As soon as Hua Xiwan entered Concubine Shu's palace, she noticed that the atmosphere inside was unusual. She entered the main hall without looking sideways. Down.
"Is elder sister okay?" Hua Xiwan patted the back of Hou's hand lightly, stroked Qingwu's scar on it, and sighed.
"Fortunately," Hou looked up and glanced at Hua Xiwan, and quickly retracted his gaze, as if there was no love in life, "Little sister made a special trip for me."
The others stared at the two of them in astonishment. Listening to this tone, it seemed that the two of them had a good relationship
It stands to reason that with the current position of King Shengjun and King Xian, Princess Xian and Princess Shengjun should not have a good friendship.
"I heard that my sister is suffering, how can I sit still?" Hua Xiwan saw Hou's index finger unconsciously draw a circle on the edge of the table, her tone was a bit angry and solemn, "What's your plan?"
Princess Xian, do you still remember your identity
The onlookers felt that this scene was a bit strange, and Concubine Shu, who was the leader, had to speak again: "Princess Xian and Princess Shengjun have a good relationship."
"My concubine is disrespectful," Hua Xiwan stood up and bowed her knees to Concubine Shu, then said, "I heard that my sister has suffered so much, and my concubine's anger is hard to calm down. Please forgive me."
When Concubine Shu heard the words, she immediately understood in her heart. It seemed that Princess Xian was on the side of the Hou family. I wonder if this was what King Xian meant or what Princess Xian herself meant
Hua Xiwan, no matter what Concubine Shu's plans, she is now standing up to speak for Hou's family, which can be regarded as a way to help Hou's family, because the King of Shengjun is not destined to ascend to the position of the ninety-five supreme. Prince Sheng and Li can be understood in the future, and they don't have to be implicated by Prince Sheng.
Thinking that Yan Jinqiu had the idea of having a child because of the entanglement between Hou Shi and Yan Boyi, she felt a little headache. Too young to give birth to a child is not good for the mother and the fetus. How can she scientifically and effectively demonstrate this serious issue with the object
"You have a deep relationship, and it is right for you to care about each other. This palace can understand," Concubine Shu looked at Hou, but the meaning of her words changed a lot, "Is your decision just now sincere?"
Hou nodded: "The concubine has been decided."
Concubine Shu sighed and said, "I understand, I will go to see Your Majesty after a while, but I can't guarantee whether I will succeed or not. I can only do my best."
At the last moment, she still chose the line of King Xian. King Shengjun, a man who can even make a ruthless attack on his own wife, if he ascends the throne, what kind of dignity are there for these old emperors of the past, it is better to surrender to the king earlier, at least to ensure a stable life for the rest of his life.
Seeing this, Concubine De and Concubine Rong also comforted Hou Shi and expressed their willingness to intercede with the emperor for Hou Shi.
"Thank you so much for the ladies," Hua Xiwan got up and saluted the three concubines with a pun, watching the palace attendants in Concubine Shu's palace help Hou to rest in the apse before getting up and saying, "It's not early, the concubine If it is inconvenient to disturb you any more, my concubine will retire."
After hearing the words, Concubine Shu held her back for a while, and seeing Hua Xiwan insisting on leaving, she sent the most respectable nanny around her to send her out of the palace to show that she valued her.
"Princess Xian, walk slowly." The mama took Hua Xiwan to the gate of the palace. Seeing that King Xian was standing by the carriage, she was secretly amazed. She didn't expect King Xian to value Princess Xian so much and waited for her to return to the palace at the gate of the palace.
Watching the two get on the carriage together, the maid returned to Concubine Shu's palace, and after reporting everything she had seen just now, she said, "Niangniang, this servant thinks, if in the future... I will befriend Princess Xian, and I will treat us well. It is very beneficial.”
"Why doesn't this palace understand?" Concubine Shu took a sip of tea and entered the palace in a few days. In fact, His Majesty is very old, and there are many things I am afraid of.
As for whether the Crown Princess and Her Majesty really had something filthy...
Concubine Shu sneered, the most prosperous in this world is the royal family, and the dirtiest is the royal family. She has been in the palace for more than ten years, and she has never seen anyone or experienced anything. The Zhang family is so public now that they even dare to use Princess Xian as a stepping stone to raise her reputation, and she will naturally suffer in the future.
"Have someone to take good care of this Hou family," Concubine Shu put down her teacup, "I'm afraid there will be a lot of articles in this matter today."
In the carriage, Yan Jinqiu and Hua Xiwan sat side by side, Yan Jinqiu carefully looked at the expression on Hua Xiwan's face, and then said, "What do you think about what I told you before?"
Hua Xiwan raised her eyebrows and said slowly, "Of course I'm lying down and thinking slowly."
Yan Jinqiu was silent for a moment: "I... just a little unsteady."
The car swayed slightly as it moved forward. Hua Xiwan lifted a corner of the curtain, looked at the peddler who respectfully avoided the carriage outside the car, lowered the curtain and said, "I thought you should be a lot more at ease now."
Yan Jinqiu looked at her suspiciously.
Hua Xiwan tilted her head and smiled at Yan Jinqiu: "I know your ambitions, and you know my temperament. Is there anything in the world more suitable than us?"
Yan Jinqiu was stunned for a while, then smiled and said, "You are right, I think too much."
Hua Xiwan shook her head: "Thinking too much consumes your mind and is not good for your body."
Yan Jinqiu held his forehead: "It's mine or not."
Hua Xiwan curled her lips into a smile. Seeing Yan Jinqiu's appearance, she lifted the curtains again and saw a group of old couples walking slowly with each other on the corner of the street. children will have.”
A child whose parents expect to be born can have the most perfect love in the world.
