The people waiting outside the door heard Lin Shiheng's voice, and quickly pushed the door and walked in, "Your Highness."
"Throw this woman out, don't get in the way of this king."
Lin Shiheng waved his hand, turned his head and stopped looking, as if he even looked at Grape as if his eyes were dirty.
Mu Qingling looked at him, and then at the grapes kneeling on the ground, and his expression became a little confused for a while.
Grape had not slept all night, but at this moment, after listening to his heartless words, he only felt dizzy, as if he had been in hell all of a sudden.
Seeing those servants grabbing her arms roughly and about to drag her out, she was anxious and screamed and struggled: "My lord, don't you know the slaves? The slaves are grapes! Yesterday, you said to the slaves yourself, I want to take slaves into the room!"
"etc."
Lin Shiheng stopped people and saw that they were not moving, he frowned and looked at Grape's face carefully.
After reading it, the frowning eyebrows became even more intense.
"Are you a grape? It's just one night, how did it become so ugly?"
Grape was first happy and then surprised. She hesitantly touched her face, as if remembering something, she stumbled to her feet and ran to the bronze mirror in Mu Qingling's room to look nervously.
She also knew that some medicines could make a woman's face full of red spots and looked ugly. After seeing that her appearance had not changed or disfigured, she was suddenly relieved.
The appearance is still there, and the grapes are more confident. She knelt back and went to grab Lin Shiheng's clothes pitifully: "My lord, the slave did not sleep last night, maybe her eyes are a little swollen, you let the slave rest for a night. , tomorrow's slaves will be the same as yesterday."
"I can't."
Lin Shiheng quickly dodged her hand that was about to grab his clothes, and his face was full of disgust and unconcealed: "You don't even look at your current appearance, your eyes are narrowed, your nostrils are big and black, your mouth is as thin as paper, and your face is sallow. Even the peasant women outside are a hundred times stronger than you."
It is the cruelest thing for a woman to be attacked for her appearance, especially in ancient times.
Mu Qingling watched helplessly as the grape tears fell down, the one crying was a pear blossom with rain, full of grievances.
Her appearance is inherently weak, so her eyes are red and she slightly bows her head and weeps. Not only does she look good, but it can also stimulate people's desire for protection. Even Mu Qingling, who is a little disgusted with her behavior, sees the grapes. Appearance, I have to admit that she is indeed a beauty.
King Linjiang, who was standing beside the bed, seemed to be unable to see this beauty at all, and was still chattering: "And your waist, I'm afraid it's fatter than the bucket outside, and you Compared with the unsightly length, this clothes and jewelry will look much better, but unfortunately, wearing such a good thing on your head, isn't this a blind thing!"
As he spoke, he seemed to remember something, turned his head and asked in disapproval: "Princess, the girl should look like a girl, look at the girl beside you, a girl who serves people, dressed so richly. What a majestic thing to do."
Mu Qingling looked at Lin Shiheng almost sluggishly and covered his eyes with a look of "This woman hurt my eyes".
She paused, then paused, paused again, and then reluctantly responded: "Go back to the lord, because you said yesterday that you want to bring this girl into the house, after all, you are also the person by your concubine's side, so that's why she was sent to her. clothing and jewelry."
"Isn't it a waste to put these things on her! Hurry up, someone will take it back later."
How can I take back what I gave to the girl...
Mu Qingling really couldn't understand why the dignified prince could have such a frugal idea, but he was a husband and she was a wife, so he naturally had to obey.
So she respectfully responded, and glanced at Grape, whose face was full of thunder and choking: "Then this girl... Does the lord want to close the room?"
"Such an ugly girl, whether she sleeps with the king or the king sleeps with her in the house! Hurry up and let her go, the king doesn't want to see her again in the future!"
Grape, who was still crying in the most beautiful pose while concave, was stunned.
The same is true of falling from heaven to hell.
At this moment, she couldn't care about crying and looked beautiful, she hurriedly walked forward on her knees, reaching out to grab Lin Shiheng.
"My lord, your lord, have you forgotten what you said to your servant yesterday? The servant just didn't sleep well, and tomorrow will return to the original lord!!"
Lin Shiheng's face was full of disgust and disgust, and he stepped back several steps, as if the grape's hand was poisonous, and it would kill him if it touched him.
"Don't come here! When you grow up like this, you're too embarrassed to let this king take over the house... ugh... No, it's disgusting. Come on, pull it down and hit twenty big boards and throw it to the outskirts of Beijing for this king, no..."
King Linjiang, who gave the order very smoothly, thought of something halfway, stopped and turned to look at Mu Qingling hesitantly, "Since it is the person next to the princess, it's up to the princess to deal with it."
Mu Qingling, who had already made one more side concubine, responded at a loss: "Yes."
"This girl is ugly and virtuous. She is so dissolute that she wants to seduce this king. Wherever the princess will send her, I don't care, but I don't want to see her in the mansion in the future."
n bs Mu Qingling understood in seconds: "Your Highness, rest assured, this girl and concubine will be sent back to the Hou Mansion, and she will never disturb your Highness's interest again."
Lin Shiheng nodded with satisfaction, glanced at the servants who were holding down the weeping grapes, and glared: "What are you doing standing still! Drag it down to fight!"
"Twenty boards!"
Grape called out mournfully, "Your Highness!!"
King Linjiang was frightened by the voice of the woman who was suddenly raised, and he quickly covered his ears with his hands, "It's too noisy! Add 30 more boards, and the princess will deal with it after the fight, so take it away!"
"Yes!"
Those servants dragged them out obediently, Grape was grabbed and still desperately begging for mercy: "Your Highness, forgive your life, Your Majesty, Your Majesty's servants know what's wrong, please Your Highness..."
Lin Shiheng chased to the door and added: "Cover her mouth and beat her at the door of the yard, so that the servants who are serving will take a good look at it. What is the end of her ugly appearance and trying to seduce this king!"
"Your Majesty! Slave uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu..."
Yesterday, Grape, who had challenged the princess because he wanted to be a side concubine, was escorted to the bench, and he was gagged and hit fifty big.
At first, she screamed miserably, but later, when blood soaked her clothes, she turned pale, and lay on the ground with cold sweat on her face, unable to even scream.
The servants still had to serve the master, but they were not called out to watch her being beaten, but the muffled sound of the slap on the flesh resounded very clearly in their ears.
The main courtyard has never been so quiet before. Whether it is the servants in the palace or the girls brought by Mu Qingling from the mansion, they are all more obedient and respectful at this moment, sitting quietly on their own business. , did not dare to make a sound, for fear that the moody King Linjiang would be dragged out and beaten in the next second.
In the house, the perpetrator was feeding his own princess with medicine as usual.
"This king is going to the palace today to visit the queen mother. If you are not in good shape, I will not take you with me. Next time I will take you there when you are in good health."
Mu Qingling was drinking the soup one by one obediently. Hearing this, he raised his eyes hesitantly, "Would this not be out of order?"
Even in a normal family, the daughter-in-law has to go to the mother-in-law to greet her, not to mention that this is the royal family. She has never seen the queen mother except on the day of her wedding.
"It's okay, your health is not good and you can't get out of bed, just talk to the king and the queen."
Seeing that the soup and medicine were finished, Lin Shiheng seemed to have completed some task. He breathed a sigh of relief, and put the medicine bowl aside and clapped his hands, "This king has to go and ask the emperor, what kind of imperial doctor is this sent, and I will wait a while. Said to be treated this way, and then said that it should be treated that way, and said that it is better than the hospital's judgment of medical skills."
He sneered coldly, and did not shy away from the people who were serving in the house, "Princess doesn't know yet, yesterday Imperial Physician Cui said that you need the flesh of your close relatives to make medicine introduction, your unruly third sister volunteered, this king admires very much With her kind of courage, she drew her sword and planned to cut her flesh by herself, but before it was cut, Imperial Physician Cui jumped out of nowhere, misjudged one bite at a time, saying that there is no need for a drug introduction, and it will be cured directly."
Mu Qingling wiped his mouth with a handkerchief for a while, "Your Highness said it was Cui Mu, Imperial Physician Cui?"
If I remember correctly, he was the cousin of the old lady's family. When he was a child, his family was down and out. He also lived in the mansion for some time. At that time, Mu Qingling met him, and his admiration for Mu Qingrong was straightforward. It was written on his face, but Mu Qingrong always ignored him.
Later, the old lady fell ill, and he grew old again, so he moved out of the Hou residence. I heard that he later became an imperial physician. He was praised by the emperor for his superb medical skills.
Now that Cui Mu was misdiagnosed and Mu Qingrong was involved, it was really hard not to let Mu Qingling think about it.
"It's not him, he really can't handle things without hair."
After saying that, Lin Shiheng sneered again: "This king is so old, and I have never seen an imperial doctor in the imperial hospital misdiagnosed, what a rubbish, now this king has a good eye, and sent the prescription he gave to the hospital for judgment. Look, in the end, what do you think the court verdict said?"
"He said that the remedy for the disease is not the symptom of deficiency that Cui Mu said, but the antidote. Cui Mu has not mentioned this to this king at all."
Mu Qingling clenched his hand tightly, "Detoxification?"
"Oh, yes, this king forgot to tell the princess that you are poisoned. The court judge said that the poison must be eaten for three consecutive days before it takes effect. It is not easy to enter the food. This king thought that it should be by your side. The one who serves."
King Linjiang enthusiastically suggested: "Why don't you push it all out to play the board, or keep playing if you don't admit it."
When he said this, the girls serving in the house were all stiff and well-behaved. Who wants to be beaten, and according to the prince's intention, I am afraid that the poisoner will not admit it, and they will have to be beaten continuously. , so far as not to be killed.
Although a group of girls did not dare to make a sound or move, they quietly looked at Mu Qingling, hoping that she would not respond.
Fortunately, although Mu Qingling's face was a little ugly, he still forced a smile at Lin Shiheng: "It's all the people who serve the concubine's body, and it's not good to fight indiscriminately. Bar."
"Also, if you can't find it out, you can simply sell it for a while. There are minions everywhere, and it's hard to stay with the master."
Lin Shiheng's attitude is so natural, yes, he is the king of Linjiang. He has grown up since he was a child, and he has always been spoiled by His Majesty's brother. Naturally, he does whatever he wants, and he doesn't care about one or two people who serve him. .
Mu Qingling spontaneously speculated about his behavior in his heart, and the discomfort in his heart disappeared a lot.
She still believed in the girl who grew up with her, who could give her medicine. Mu Qingling already had a candidate in her heart, and she just waited for a while to question her.
So she softly responded:
"Yes, the concubine listens to the prince."
"Well, the king is leaving now."
Lin Shiheng got up, patted the dust that didn't exist on his body, and strode towards the outside.
His image has now been elevated in the eyes of all the people who are serving him. Seeing him walking out the door, a group of girls who dared not let their air out quietly breathed a sigh of relief, and was about to move a little bit to move their stiff body. , and suddenly saw that the luxuriously dressed King Linjiang suddenly turned back.
He stared at a girl who bowed her head respectfully by the curtain.
"You're a pretty girl, but the person beside the princess? What's your name?"
When he saw the grapes yesterday, this girl was standing outside the door and saw the whole process clearly. Now listening to his words that were exactly the same as yesterday, the first reaction in my heart was not the joy of being spotted by the prince, but flashed in my mind. The picture of the embarrassed being dragged out to hit fifty big boards of grapes.
She almost shivered and knelt on the ground, her head lowered, not daring to lift her head up, "Slave... slave Shuixiu."
"Water sleeves?"
Lin Shiheng nodded and repeated, looking at her up and down, with satisfaction on his face: "Sure enough, it's just like its name, and it hurts to look at it."
The girl trembled even more.
If she remembered correctly, the prince said the same to Grape yesterday.
If there is no foreshadowing of grapes, she is naturally very happy to be seen by the prince.
But think about those fifty big boards...
The person above is still asking suspiciously: "Why are you shaking? Is it cold?"
Shui Xiu trembled with trembling: "Slave... not cold."
"So beautiful, it's a pity to be a girl. You are willing to serve this king, and it would be good for this king to allow you to be a side concubine."
Lin Shiheng personally bent down, raised Shui Xiu, and said to her in a warm voice: "Stop kneeling, this king will feel distressed when he sees a beauty like you kneeling on this cold ground, come, raise your head, and let this king Take a good look at your face."
The more tender and sweet he is, the more Shui Xiu can remind Shui Xiu that he did the same to grapes yesterday.
Think about the girl who was forcibly robbed and then kicked out...
Although she looks good, she is not specially trained to be a concubine. Princess Renshan has promised to release these girls who have families outside in another two years, and also offer a dowry.
Compared with the unpredictable and unpredictable prince who can play the board at any time, it is more practical to go out and marry a man.
Shui Xiu made a decision in her heart, and raised her head with a white face, "Wang... Wangye, this servant is only a second-class girl, I'm afraid I won't be lucky enough to serve the lord."
"Not waiting?"
Lin Shiheng changed his face instantly, and let go of his disgust and patted the ashes on his body: "If you don't wait for you, say it earlier, it will delay this king's time."
"Don't stand back quickly."
Shui Xiu was like amnesty, and he lowered his head and retreated without daring to breathe.
And Lin Shiheng was just like the person who looked pity and cherishing jade before, he looked at her with disgust, turned his head and complained to Mu Qingling who was watching everything quietly on the bed.
"Princess, look at the people around you."
"Those who are ugly have to pick on this king, and those who are good-looking are unwilling to serve."
As the mistress, Mu Qingling skillfully and quickly took all the mistakes on her own: "The lord said that when the concubine's health is better, I will choose some beauties for the lord to serve."
She has very low requirements now. As long as she doesn't rob civilians and force them illegally, she can accept Yangzhou Thin Horse.
"Forget it, this king still likes to dig by himself."
Lin Shiheng shook his head regretfully, "But your room really needs to be rectified."
"Look at the girls around you. Except for the water snake that this king took a fancy to, the others are so ugly, and that grape, it's really more abnormal than the other."
Mu Qingling blinked blankly, looked around at the worst and most beautiful girls in his room, hesitated for a few seconds: "That's what the lord said."
Lin Shiheng threw his sleeves out of the door in satisfaction, sighing as he went out.
"Tsk tsk tsk, this king is really excited today."
"Outside, are you finished, add ten more boards!"
