Xie Yunqing came to Xie Yunqing when she was six years old. She has served Xie Yunqing personally for many years. Xie Yunqing has always trusted her. Among all the maidservants, she has the most face.
Finally, it was Aster who betrayed Xie Yunqing.
Xie Yunqing squeezed the scroll in his hand, "You go get fifty taels of silver for the aster, just say that I used it for her. Since there is something in her house, she will be allowed to take leave these days and wait until the family affairs are handled before returning."
It was just to give Aster another chance, and it was up to Aster whether he could seize the opportunity this time. If he still betrayed her, Xie Yunqing would never be merciless.
As soon as the news that Princess Huayang was about to talk to Gao Xiuyi about her dear, the noble family in Beijing immediately exploded, and they were all discussing what luck did the girl of the Gao family have, and she was actually favored by the Princess. .
This long princess, although she has lived in the princess mansion for a long time and does not go out, but who in the capital does not remember those deeds when she was young? It is the blessing of several generations to be favored by the princess.
Mrs. Gao kept asking her servants to inquire about the news, and when she learned that the incident was true, she walked around the room with excitement, and then ran up to the statue of Bodhisattva and put two sticks of incense on it.
Madam Gao let out a long sigh of relief, her face also showed a smile that she hadn't had for several days.
"Madam, you pray to the Bodhisattva so sincerely and sincerely. The Bodhisattva sees your mind and he really takes care of our young lady." The maid next to him knows how to cater to Mrs. Gao. Seeing Mrs. Gao's smile, she stepped forward and asked what Mrs. Gao liked to hear. Say.
Mrs. Gao became more happy when she heard it, and rewarded the maid with a ring.
The maid couldn't help but replied, "Mrs. Xie's reward."
Mrs. Gao didn't worry about her troubles, and she spoke a lot more lightly. "You said that if the princess is able to stand up for Xiuyi, did Xiuyi's classmates speak kindly to Xiuyi in front of her?"
"The county owner of the Luo family, the servant and maid only met once, and he seems to be a true temperament."
The little maid stopped talking until she said this, but Mrs. Gao knew what she meant. Luo Huixin has been an arrogant and careless person since she was a child, she should not have been so meticulous.
Mrs. Gao thought of another girl, her face was quiet, she didn't speak eagerly, she didn't look like a teenage girl. ** The girl in the government house is very smart and can talk.
Mrs. Gao spoke a few words with the little maid, and someone came in outside to spread a message, saying that the imperial concubine lady invited her into the palace to talk.
Concubine Gao Gui did not easily declare her to enter the palace. Today, she proactively declares her, probably because of the princess.
Madam Gao raised her hand and closed her hair, and said, "Let me change my clothes and enter the palace to greet the concubine and empress."
"Mother concubine, how could the eldest princess give her cousin a marriage for no reason?" The second prince was also in Yanxi Palace, and he was peeling lychees for Concubine Gao.
The lychees were sent from Panyu Quickly with a whip. Only four baskets were obtained. Because Concubine Gao liked to eat, the emperor gave a full basket to Concubine Gao.
Concubine Gao Guiqi's red lips lightly opened, and she spit out the pit, "You have to ask your aunt. The princess always doesn't ask what happened outside. The first time she came out for your cousin in more than 20 years is really intriguing."
"When the princess came like this, wouldn't it disrupt your mother and concubine's plan? Didn't you want to tell the cousin to the only son of the household department?"
"What's the Hukou? It's a big deal to give your uncle's other cousins to
Yu Jia, if your Xiuyimei can cast the eyes of the princess, it will bring more benefits to the Gao family. "Gao Guifei smiled.
The second prince scratched his head, "Mother, concubine, children don’t understand. The princess stepped into the coffin with one foot. Even though she made a lot of contributions to the emperor grandfather’s accession to the throne, the emperor grandfather has died for so many years. . After all these years, what else can she have worthy of our attention."
Concubine Gao Gui's charming fox's eyes flashed at this time, "You don't understand, the emperor has always been grateful and guilty for the eldest princess, and wants to compensate the eldest princess. In addition to giving the eldest princess enjoy the endless glory and wealth. , Gave me something like the Grand Princess."
"What is it?" The second prince was stunned. He knew that the first emperor took special care of this aunt, but given so much wealth and knighted, is this kind of honor not enough
"Lingquan Sword," Gao Guifei paused, "Upper kills the traitor, lowers the chaotic thieves, Emperor Sejong used to put down the San Francisco disaster, and was given to the princess by the first emperor."
"This... This sword is actually in the hands of the princess?" The second prince was dumbfounded.
Although he was young, he knew how important the Spirit Spring Sword was. In addition to the jade seal of the Great Zhou Dynasty, only this sword is handed down from ancient times to today.
Concubine Gao said: "The Lingquan sword is in the hands of the princess, which means she holds supreme power. However, the princess is still a member of the royal family. After a hundred years, the sword will still return to the Xiao family. of."
"The mother queen means, think..."
"Yes," Concubine Gao nodded, "If you have the Lingquan Sword, you will also have the trust of all officials to surrender. At that time, your father will make you the reserve, and that is a matter of course.
Several princes are still young. Although the emperor favors the second prince and wants to make him the crown prince, the second prince, like the other princes, has not yet displayed any talents. The emperor intends to set up the second prince as the prince, and the members of the Gao Guifei line also seconded.
Although the final decision is in the hands of the emperor, this matter must also take into account the opinions of several cabinet elders.
The cabinet’s first assistant is Gu Pingzhang. He and the two second assistants have been writing letters. They feel that the princes are still young and that the emperor is in the same year. They persuade the emperor to wait for another two or three years. Skills, then consider the matter of Li Chu.
Sure enough, the emperor was persuaded, and temporarily decided to put aside his plan to save. He went to Yanxi Palace. Although Concubine Gao was disappointed in her heart, she still pretended not to care and served the emperor intimately.
The emperor was moved in his heart, holding the high noble concubine, and promised that the crown prince must be the second prince.
"But, mother concubine, are you sure that the eldest princess will give me the Lingquan sword?" the second prince asked, "you know, the eldest princess has always had no friendship with us, and I don't believe it."
Concubine Gao Gui lightly knocked the second prince on the head, "You, I told you to study harder, but I just refused to listen. The princess has enjoyed everything in splendor and wealth, but she has to think about her children and grandchildren when she dies. Wait. Once she dies, can the Luo family still have the power and position it is today? Maybe as soon as her forefoot is gone, your father will have the Luo family."
"So, for the future of the Luo family, she must use the Spirit Spring Sword in her hand. The Grand Princess is a smart person. I can't figure out why she has been reluctant all these years.
Accept my request for cooperation, both implicitly and implicitly. "
"Now think about it, is it possible that the eldest princess is arguing with me? Now that she is showing her appearance for you, she wants the Gao family to owe her a favor, so that she stands in a place that is more advantageous than us and negotiates terms with us?"
Concubine Gao Gui said a call and felt thirsty, and ate two more lychees.
The second prince was a little excited, "Does that mean that the eldest princess agreed to cooperate with us?"
"It's possible. It's just that the princess is more sophisticated and unpredictable. I can't send someone to thank the princess for this. Only let your uncle's mother go to the princess's house to explore her breath."
The mother and son were talking, and the court lady came in to pass on, saying that it was Mrs. Gao who was here.
Concubine Gao Gui asked people to declare, and looked at the second prince, "You go back." He also ordered a basket of lychees to be carried by the second prince.
The second prince went out of the residence of the noble concubine, but did not leave the palace immediately, but walked in the garden of Yanxi Palace.
In the garden, there are many little palace ladies who are constructing flowers and branches. These little palace ladies have good facial features and a slender posture.
Concubine Gao was usually served by wives or court ladies with ordinary appearance. Like these beautiful, Concubine Gao was afraid that they would attract the attention of the emperor, and kept them away from them. Instead, they let them take care of the garden and sweep the palace.
The second prince was standing behind a little court lady, looking at the beautiful shadow of the little court lady.
The little palace lady seemed to notice that someone was watching her, and when she turned her head, there was someone else. The little palace lady was startled, her hand was holding her chest, her heart thumped and thumped.
The second prince stepped forward and held the hand of the little palace lady, "I don't know how to eat people, why are you so nervous?" He has a very good skin, and he is extremely gentle when he speaks.
The little palace lady grew up in the palace. Wherever there is a man who treats her with such tenderness, he blushes immediately.
She grew up in a deep palace, naturally she was not as innocent and harmless as she seemed on the surface, and she also had a heart to chase fame and fortune. In the past, Concubine Gao never let them get close to the emperor. She could not find a chance to start. Now there is a second prince who is younger than the emperor. If the little maid didn’t seize this opportunity, she would really be sorry for her so many years of hard work. And wronged.
The little maid gently broke away from the second prince's hand, turned sideways, and whispered softly: "Second prince, you suddenly appeared behind the maidservant and did not speak. The maidservant was naturally frightened." She was half lowered. The head and face were flushed, with the shyness of a girl.
The second prince was even more irritated by such a charming posture. He stepped forward and held the slender waist of the little palace lady, approached the little palace lady's ear, and said softly: "Then I can apologize to you?"
The little palace lady gently pushed the second prince's chest, saying that it was a push, but the action was soft and weak, "Second prince, everyone is watching." Her voice was so charming to the bones.
In fact, no one dared to look at the second prince directly, and fewer people noticed the movement here. The second prince smiled softly and lifted the little palace lady sideways.
The little palace lady hurriedly buried her head in the arms of the second prince.
The second prince said: "This way, no one will see it?" After that, he walked into the side hall with the little palace girl striding to the side.
Mrs. Gao was about to enter the dormitory of Concubine Gao, and she saw the second prince walking hurriedly holding a little court lady from a distance. Madam Gao shook her head, she was so presumptuous in her mother's palace, and she didn't know how Concubine Gao educates her son. Without saying much, he entered the main hall.
