Seventy-sixth bowl of soup (1)
[She was supposed to have no children all her life, but she was humiliated and died at the age of 21 to save her stepdaughter.]
[She was supposed to be infatuated with one person all her life, knowing that she was mistreated, she still held back and devoted herself wholeheartedly.]Qing Huan stood at the gate of the yard looking forward to it, but, since the prince sent someone to say that he would come at noon, it was getting dark now, and he still didn't come. She couldn't bear the look of disappointment on her face, and the maid beside her persuaded: "Madam, it's better to go inside and wait, the wind is too strong at the moment to avoid catching the cold, your body can't stand it."
She shook her head: "I'll wait a little longer, you go to the small kitchen to see if the Anshen Soup is ready, and when the lord comes, you must serve it hot right away."
The maid hesitated to speak, and said for a long while: "... yes, servant girl will go now."
Qing Huan was still waiting until the chief eunuch next to the prince came over, first saluted respectfully, and then said: "Mrs. Qiangwei, the prince suddenly feels a little tired, so I won't be here today, and I specially asked the slave to give it to Madam." Send this glazed eight-treasure lamp, please accept it, Madam."
Hearing this, Qing Huan couldn't hide the disappointment on her face, but she still smiled: "I'm sorry to trouble Eunuch, since the prince is tired, please take good care of Eunuch."
"This is the duty of a slave, don't worry, ma'am. On the contrary, the young prince has checked his homework for the past few days, and he is praising his wife for doing well." Eunuch Wen said with a smile, he had a kind face, Maitreya Buddha Generally speaking, everyone would smile, and the words on his mouth would be watertight, Qing Huan was his opponent, her face turned red. "I will treat the little prince well, father-in-law, please rest assured."
Eunuch Wen chuckled, "Since that's the case, the servant will go back, Madam Wanfu Jinan."
After sending off Eunuch Wen, Qing Huan happily took over the glazed eight-treasure lamp, which was already lit with incense. It was her favorite rose fragrance. It seemed that the prince really cared about her.
It's time for dinner, and the little prince who finished his day's homework came. He was only five years old. Because Faye Wong passed away early, Qing Huan, who had just entered the mansion, took him with him since he was two years old, just like his own mother. She also has the highest status in the palace. Although she is not the main concubine, she is no different from the main concubine. She has always been in charge of the entire palace. It's just that even though she has been in the palace for three years, her temperament is still very gentle and graceful, and she never blush to others, so everyone in the palace likes this Mrs. Qiangwei very much.
Yes, everyone thinks that the prince treats her very well, with all his heart devoted to her, sleeping with her for at least ten days a month, how enviable.
There was no one around, Qing Huan sat in the room with a smile uglier than crying.
If she hadn't heard those words yesterday, she did think so.
The late Wangfei was her direct elder sister. She was beautiful and talented since she was a child. She was more than ten years older than her, and she married the prince early. At that time, the story of the deep love between the king of Huaiyang and the eldest lady of the Shangshu Mansion was circulated throughout the capital. Later they got married and had children. If my sister hadn't been seriously ill and the medicine didn't work, how would she be where she is today
Just because of the death of the princess, and also because she was afraid that the prince would forget the old man and forget the prime minister's mansion when he married a new princess, her father and aunt sent her here, just because she was very similar to her elder sister. If there is any difference, it is probably the difference between rose and rose. Therefore, everyone in the mansion called her Mrs. Qiangwei. She was neither a concubine nor a side concubine, but a worthless substitute sent by the Shangshu Mansion.
The purpose of her coming here is to serve the prince and take care of her two children for her deceased sister. The little princess is already thirteen years old this year, but the little prince is still young, so compared to the little princess who never gets close to her or even hostile to her, the little prince is much closer to her.
Qing Huan always thought so. Her father told her repeatedly before she was sent here that you and the Shangshu Mansion are one body, you will be honored and honored, and you will be harmed by each other. You must obey the prince in everything, don't make him angry, and think of the Yu family.
She is burdened with such expectations and requirements, and strives to make herself do it.
But she didn't know that the prince had done such a thing to herself.
The prince has no heart for her, since she entered the house for more than three years, he has never touched her, even if he spends the night in her yard, he still sleeps with his clothes on, let alone doting on her. Even so, he is still worried about her, the rose fragrance he sent someone, the drug mixed in it has already made her infertile, he is the same as the people in Shangshufu, they just want her to live in peace for the rest of her life As a stand-in for my sister, I will live my life peacefully, and don't do what he thinks.
People in the Shangshu Mansion don't regard her as a relative, and the prince doesn't regard her as his wife, so what is she...
Qing Huan sat on the stool in a daze, she didn't know what to do. It wasn't until the little prince climbed onto her lap and softly called her auntie that she came back to her senses. The child in her arms was white and tender, but besides love and affection, there was also a sadness in her heart that she couldn't express.
The fault is not with the young prince, but with her father, aunt, and prince.
If he doesn't like her, then just don't marry her. If you want to guard your sister, if you don’t marry, you will welcome her into the mansion, give her an unclear name, don’t touch her body, let her live like a sister, and take care of him and his beloved wife’s children... just because Among the concubine's daughters in the family, she and her sister were the only ones who resembled each other.
A vicious thought flashed by, Qing Huan almost wanted to push the child off her lap, her eyes were sore, and her heart was full of struggles. On the one hand, there is the jealousy and anger of wanting revenge, and on the other hand, it is the teachings he has received since childhood and his father's repeated exhortations. All this made her at a loss. She was expecting the prince to come today, so she asked her carefully whether what he said to the little princess yesterday was true, and what meant that she would never be able to take your mother's place. What does it mean that she is just a pawn that your mother chose for your siblings before she died... Could it be that she, Yu Qinghuan, was born for them!
They use her, and they still think that she is a concubine from a humble background, and they also think that she is not qualified to enter the palace, and they still have to discuss how to deal with themselves when the little princess and the little prince grow up in the future!
Yes, in the world, no one knows that Shangshufu married another daughter into Huaiyang Palace. They only know that after the eldest daughter of Shangshufu died, Huaiyang King was very affectionate and not close to women at all.
Qing Huan hated her so much in her heart, but she was gentle on her face: "Little prince, be good, come down to eat, there is still homework to do in a while."
The little prince curled his lips: "I don't want to do it, auntie don't order me, my sister said that auntie has to listen to me!"
After all, it is a family connected by blood. She has devoted herself to taking care of the child for three years, and she is no match for the little princess.
Yes, in the hearts of these people, she is just a humble slave. Calling her madam is to give her face, she must cherish it... she doesn't!
Qing Huan took a deep breath, and when she looked up again, her brows and eyes were very peaceful: "What the little prince said is that from that day on, I will listen to the little prince."
The little prince showed a smug smile: "I won't do my homework tonight! Help me do it!"
Few people know that Qing Huan is extremely talented, especially good at piano, chess, calligraphy and painting, and even better at imitating other people's handwriting. In the past, he wrote the handwriting for the little prince to copy, but now it is not like this.
She doesn't want to harm this child, but just wants her to swallow her humiliation and give, and these people don't want to be delusional. Everyone is like this, who is born nobler than whom? She is a concubine, so she deserves to be sacrificed like this, and she should not be regarded as her fate.
There are children in every family, the prince is busy with affairs, and the little princess is impatient to take care of the children, but now, she doesn't want to take care of them either.
The little prince tasted the benefits of the "order", and Qing Huan no longer taught and comforted him, so he became even more domineering. The little princess also never imagined that her words of command that day would alienate her younger brother from the woman who occupied the magpie's nest. She was so happy that she instigated the little prince to stay away from Qinghuan. It is also common to come here. Qing Huan told King Huaiyang, but King Huaiyang lightly told her not to interfere with the little prince's affairs, because he was his son.
Yes, his son, and sister's son. They wanted her to treat the young prince as her own, but they didn't want the young prince to really rely on her.
Really, it's ridiculous.
She gradually became estranged from the little prince, and when they met again, the little prince didn't even call auntie, and his wife was his greatest respect to her. But Qing Huan didn't care, she just wanted to know, in the future, when the little prince grew up, if he found out that he was different from what she thought, would he blame her
He was so immersed in the pain of the loss of his wife that he forgot everything, and she was not his real wife, so why should she work so hard for him? He lied to her and used her without telling her, but still looked down on her because of her low status.
How could she think that this was her lover!
Now that I think about it, I feel as excited as before, like a clown. Qing Huan thought for a long time before she realized that maybe the prince didn't understand her feelings, but did not understand on purpose. Because only in this way, she will give her all her affection for him until she squeezes out the last bit of her own value.
After she died, she wasn't even eligible to be buried with him. They will dispose of her body in disgust... Qing Huan shivered violently, she has to get out of here! must!
Shang Shufu will not protect her, she can only find a way by herself.
But this method is not something that can be thought of in a moment, life should be lived or must be lived, no one knows that she has an escape plan brewing in her heart. But before that, she still stayed in the palace peacefully, taking care of the affairs of the palace every day, working hard without complaint, no matter how much the little princess and prince bullied her, she would not complain.
