Rebirth Of A Virtuous Wife

Chapter 12

Views:

Ananda obediently sat in front of the prime minister's wife, and bravely accepted the prime minister's wife's "love" attention gift.

The prime minister's wife looked Ananda from top to bottom, and glanced at the foot that was said to have been injured on the small stool covered with fluffy white fox fur. The prime minister's wife had to admit that Ananda had many disasters. It's a bit difficult, but it's a good life, at least King Su treats her well. The fox fur that was used as a stepping stone looked like a rare Tianshan snow fox, which was priceless, but King Su was willing to use the whole skin to let Ananda dry his feet.

It's really... too prodigal!

However, remembering that King Su came in with Ananda in his arms when he came back to the door this time, the prime minister's wife's face twitched, and she suddenly felt that this prodigal was really nothing.

"Ananda, how are you... how are you these few days? How is the prince treating you?" The prime minister's wife assumed the responsibility of the concubine's mother and dutifully asked about the concubine's life after marriage.

The prime minister's wife remembered that her husband wandered around her room all night last night, chanting irritably, "Poor little Ananda has been tortured for some reason, and everyone cursed her to die early... ah bah bah bah, my Little Ananda won't die early, those bastards dare to curse my little Ananda..."

The prime minister's wife was lying on the bed at that time, unable to even complain. It is obvious that the fate of Su Wang's wife and son is too hard, no one is optimistic about Ananda, and they are all waiting for when Ananda will be killed. Why, in the eyes of her husband, did those people curse Ananda? Could it be that because her family's husband loves Ananda so much, he loves Wu and Wu, and can't bear to be harsh on King Su, so he can only get angry with the group of gamblers outside

Before the prime minister's wife could think clearly, she saw her husband rubbing his hands in embarrassment, and said to her shyly, "Madam, when Ananda comes back tomorrow, go and ask Ananda how he spent the past three days. Yes, Lord Su is very kind to her, did the two of you...well, share the same room..." Under the expression of his wife who had seen a ghost, Prime Minister Lu blushed with an old face, almost tongue-tied, and his heart was full of inner thoughts: if it wasn't for In a special period, he knew about some ulterior hobby of Lord Su from the first emperor. Does he need to put down his old face to do such a shameful thing? However, if you don't ask clearly and don't want to be reconciled, you can't let Ananda marry and become a widow, right

Xiao is as calm as the prime minister. The wife was also dumbfounded by her husband's behavior of caring about the married daughter and son-in-law's boudoir life, and looked at him in disbelief. Then, under the rare and shameless request of her husband, she agreed to his request.

However, now the prime minister's wife regretted it a bit, and she was not Ananda's biological mother, so how could she ask

Ananda didn't know about the prime minister's wife's entanglement, so she replied a little shyly. What she said was that King Su was very kind to her—as for King Su's obsession with cleanliness, she would never reveal it.

"Cough... on the wedding night, I heard that you passed out, but were you injured? And... you two had sex..." The prime minister's wife felt that her old face was about to be lost in front of the concubine.

After Ananda understood the meaning of the Prime Minister's wife's words, his face blushed instantly.

Well, there is no need to ask any more questions. The aunt and concubine don't know how to get along with each other anymore.

After this embarrassing question, the prime minister's wife asked some more about Ananda's encounters in Su Wang's mansion, and then pointed her out. Finally, I talked about some ways to be a wife and the way to be a mistress.

"You are already the serious mistress of the palace. You must have your own ideas when managing a big house. You must not let the slaves below bully you. As long as you are a princess, no one will surpass you, no matter what What's going on in the palace, as long as the prince loves you, you don't have to worry about those petty things, and it's the best policy to try to have a son and secure the position of mistress."

Ananda blinked his eyes, showed a sweet smile, and obediently answered yes.

The prime minister's wife braced her forehead, feeling that she didn't seem to understand clearly enough. Seeing the concubine's appearance, she only listened to the surface. The prime minister's wife sighed, Ananda looked like a fool, which made people really worried. Especially that pink look, coupled with that sweet smile, makes people want to stand in front of her and help her do everything properly...

None of her three daughters had ever worried her so much, so when she came to the concubine's place, she, who was not her own mother, had to plan for her everywhere.

"...Ananda, the prince is a man. We women don't understand the world of men, and we can't interfere with it. If you do your part, you can help them. And which man is not greedy, don't worry about it, you She is a decent concubine, no matter how many women you have, she will be a concubine. If you are a woman rewarded by the empress dowager and the emperor, you can just take it to the mansion and take care of her..." the prime minister's wife said in a rambling voice. , Give Ananda a vaccination. Since Ananda was able to share a room with King Su, it proves that King Su is not as good as Longyang as rumored outside, then the queen mother and the emperor will give people to the palace of King Su one day. Even if the two elders are not crowded, it is difficult to guarantee that the officials outside will send women to the mansion—King Su is the younger brother of the current emperor, and he is very popular in the court. Say a few nice words in front of the queen mother. Of course, throughout the ages, the best way to bribe a man is to send a beauty.

Ananda's eyes widened, and he realized that he was not stupid, and he understood what the prime minister's wife said.

This... Ananda thinks that stuffing a man with a cleansing obsession with the human body with a woman seems unlikely to succeed, right

*****

When the prime minister's wife was doing ideological work for Ananda and teaching her how to be a housekeeper, Prime Minister Lu was also sitting in the study with his most honorable son-in-law.

However, their narration is different from the normal son-in-law Weng, and the content is very serious.

"My lord, General Zhao sent a letter saying that the royal court of North Vietnam is ready to move. It is estimated that there will be a war before winter comes." Living with water and grass, the farther north is a land of poor mountains and bad waters. There are no weeds growing, and it is difficult to produce food. According to the spies, when this year's autumn, a plague broke out in the northwestern half of the Northwest, and countless people died. The sheep and horses have caused the North Vietnam's food for winter to drop sharply, and it is almost difficult to last a winter. Thinking about it, the North Vietnamese army will definitely go south to plunder for food."

Holding a cup of tea, Chu Baning looked coldly, "The royal court of North Vietnam is ambitious. Regardless of whether their food is rich or not, they must go south every year to harass our border residents. This is not surprising."

"This lower official knows about it, but..." Prime Minister Lu took a peek at King Su's cold expression, and said cautiously: "Floods have occurred in Chongzhou this summer, and many fields have lost crops. Our treasury of the Great Chu Dynasty cannot make ends meet. Large-scale war, perhaps…”

The conversation between superiors and subordinates must be reserved, which is the way to save life in the officialdom. Although King Su was his son-in-law, Prime Minister Lu habitually made official remarks.

Of course, Chu Baning also knows what Prime Minister Lu said. Chongzhou is located in the south of the Yangtze River, with a warm climate and criss-cross rivers. It is the granary of the Great Chu Dynasty. However, this year seems to be a year full of disasters. In July, floods occurred in Chongzhou, flooding countless farmlands, causing many people to have no harvest, and the country's grain tax was cut by nearly half. In addition, to appease the people affected by the disaster, the imperial court had to allocate a large sum of money for help. All sorts of things come down, this year's treasury is really shy. Therefore, not to mention that North Vietnam could not survive the winter, the winter of the Great Chu Dynasty was also bitter, and what supported the entire dynasty was a little savings from Emperor Chongde's hard work and thrift in the past ten years.

Chu Baning frowned tightly, knowing that in the face of the upcoming war, preparing for the army and food has become a problem that must be solved.

Knowing that Chu Baning understood the meaning of his words, Prime Minister Lu stopped talking. This kind of state secret is only known to a few people. Before the emperor makes it clear, it is better for everyone to keep it secret. However, what Prime Minister Lu is worried about is that the matter of raising food for the army will fall on which unlucky official. No matter who it is, this is a thankless job...

After a while, Prime Minister Lu looked at the sky and knew that it was almost time.

"Uh, my lord, it's getting late. The servants have prepared the food. Please move your seat." Prime Minister Lu got up and made a gesture of invitation respectfully. My boss is average.

There is no way, but for the most powerful and serious prince in the dynasty, the aura is too strong, and the prime minister can hardly hold it!

Chu Baning got up, nodded to Prime Minister Lu, walked out first, and then walked directly to the backyard.

Prime Minister Lu was dumbfounded.

"Oh my lord, where are you going?"

Chu Baning stopped, looked at his father-in-law who obviously blocked his footsteps with some displeasure, and said in a low voice: "Isn't it time to start the banquet? This king is going to pick up the princess."

And the so-called "connection"-everyone knows it well.

The corners of Prime Minister Lu’s eyes twitched, and it was jealousy in his heart: Don’t think that if you marry Ananda from his family, you will treat Ananda as your property, Ananda is still his daughter, walking around like this in Yue’s house holding his daughter what ah! It's clearly here to sow hatred!

"My lord, my wife and concubine are already waiting in the main hall, so you don't need to go there in person." Prime Minister Lu said politely, still angry at the fact that his daughter was carried into the door by his son-in-law. Pay attention to it!

Chu Baning frowned, something seemed to flash in his dark eyes, then he pursed his lips and walked back with a solemn face.

Prime Minister Lu led his noble son-in-law to the main hall with a loyal and honest appearance, but he was very proud in his heart: I didn't expect his family, Ananda, to be able to cure this cleanliness addiction. It seems that Ananda is indeed a blessed one!

It would be even more blessed if Ananda broke King Su's fate of "killing his wife and son".
