If the old lady really lived in the palace, would life in the Hou's mansion be easier
The answer is no.
The carriage went straight past the crowd and went to the palace, Wen Wan was still angry sitting in front of the dressing table. Mo Yuhou stood aside, his face was ugly, and Wen Wan pretended not to see it, but choked up with grievances: "You said that you would treat me well, and that you would not let me be wronged, so why do you always treat me wrongly?" Should I apologize to her?"
For the first time, Ning Yuxuan felt that Wen Wan was so arrogant and unreasonable. It was completely a child's heart that refused to admit her mistake and bow her head. It never occurred to her that such a disturbance would be of no benefit to herself.
"Besides, what's wrong with the palace? The palace has delicious food and drink, but they can't take good care of her? What are you worried about?" Wen Wan glared at Ning Yuxuan from the mirror.
Mo Yuhou rubbed his eyebrows, and said in a low voice: "The fault is yours. You still don't know how to avoid suspicion at such a late hour, and you are so close to Mingjie. How can mother not be angry?"
"He came here by himself, and I didn't invite him here, blame me?" Wen Wan was even more angry: "Aren't there sandalwood and Changshan beside me, do you think I'm that kind of watery woman?"
It didn't make any sense at all, Ning Yuxuan finally grimaced, snorted coldly, turned his head and went out through the door, it was still snowing outside, he didn't take an umbrella, and went back to Xiyuan directly.
Wen Wan was startled, she got up and chased after two steps, seeing Ning Yuxuan walking without looking back, she couldn't help but get red-eyed again.
She just wanted to annoy him, knowing that he was in the garden at that time, she let sandalwood lure Ning Mingjie over. Who knew that the old lady would be there, and would be so angry? Wen Wan felt extremely innocent, turned around and went back to bed to cry.
Yu Xuan always felt sorry for himself, after two days his mother lived comfortably in the palace, so he should forgive her, right
Concubine Nie regained the favor, and the emperor cared for her even more, which made many people in the harem popular. She said that she wanted the old lady to enter the palace as a companion, and the emperor moved Ting Yuxuan next to the Ninglu Palace to live in the old lady and Sang Yu.
Rumors quickly spread in the palace, saying that because Mo Yuhou married a shrew, even his own mother had to move out of the Hou's mansion and come to the palace. This is no ordinary mother, she is a majestic wife of the first rank. Holding the handkerchief and crying in front of the emperor, the emperor passed on Mo Yuhou's lecture.
"You also said earlier that Wen Yi is good at teaching daughters and has good morals. Let me give him a promotion." The emperor looked at Ning Yuxuan with piercing eyes and said, "Is this how the good daughters you teach in the end?"
Mo Yuhou knew that his mother would sue the emperor in a fit of rage, and that his father was killed in battle. The emperor always felt indebted to the Ning family, so he would naturally protect him more. But compared with his mother, the emperor, as an elder, must protect his mother.
"Weichen has no eyes." He knelt down slowly and said.
Wen Wan's father, Wen Yi, was only a prison guard in the capital city. Since Wen Wan married into the Marquis Mansion, he had used his connections to promote his father-in-law all the way to the rank of Shaoyin. Wen Wan was already satisfied, but last time the old lady talked about her family background, he had to think about bringing Wen Yi up.
But once this incident happened, the emperor would never agree to it anyway. He valued a woman's virtue the most, and half of the reason he scolded Sang Yu last time was because Sang Yu had done too much. But this time, she was more gentle than Nie Sangyu.
Ning Yuxuan felt that the emperor didn't instruct him to abolish Wen Wan just because he really liked her, like he demoted Sang Yu last time.
After a while of training, Ning Yuxuan went to Ting Yuxuan to find someone.
When Ji Man and the old lady arrived at Tingyuxuan, they began to pack their things. The old lady lived in the main hall, she lived in the side hall, and all the maids lived in the small wing next to it. It just happened to be tidied up, when the old lady was talking to Concubine Nie in the main hall, the prince came over.
It was Clover who tugged on her sleeve that Ji Man realized and knelt down to salute. Because I didn't see clearly whether the robe was a four-clawed or five-clawed golden dragon, so I didn't know whether it was the prince or the emperor, so I didn't dare to shout, so I knelt quietly.
"Is the imperial concubine and Mrs. Ning inside?" The prince looked at the people on the ground and asked with great interest.
"Yes." Ji Man bowed his head.
As soon as the snow stopped outside, the prince stood for a while, but he didn't intend to go in, but reached out to help Ji Man up.
Ji Man was stunned for a moment, and quickly glanced at the dragon on his lapel from the corner of his eye. Fortunately, Four Claws, it's the prince.
It's not that she thinks too much, there are simply too many examples of ancient emperors robbing civilian women, and people who are not in charge of them are lawless. But the prince is different, with the emperor in charge, he dare not mess around. The last time she heard the movement in Ningfu Nanyuan, she still felt uneasy, but now the dignified prince leaned over to help her, Ji Man felt her back was cold.
"I heard from Yuxuan that you wrote the poems of Luoyan Pagoda?" The prince moved closer to her and said in a low voice, "But I have helped His Highness a lot, how should I reward you?"
Ji Man took a step back and said respectfully, "It's Lord Hou who teaches well, and the crown prince rewards him."
Zhao Tuo raised his eyebrows, looked at this well-behaved woman, and said with a light smile, "Where is it my turn to reward Mo Yuhou? He has a lot of power, has countless beauties, and lives more comfortably than me."
Ji Man felt that this prince was a bit unlikable, and he didn't have the slightest dignity to talk so close.
However, she was under the eaves, so it was impossible for her to argue with the future emperor, so she could only say in a friendly voice: "Master Hou is just sharing the Lord's worries, and it can't be regarded as a side of power. When the crown prince controls the world in the future, Master Hou will also It will be of great help to you."
The crown prince was stunned, and after carefully reviewing the words, he suddenly burst out laughing: "It is rumored that Nie Sangyu loved Mo Yuhou terribly, but what he said is true. Look at you protecting your Lord Marquis every word, it is really enviable. .”
Ji Man remained silent, but the expression on his face became a little cold.
Zhao Tuo took a step closer to her, curled his lips lightly, and said in an unscrupulous tone: "Whenever you can protect me like this, it will be great."
"The prince is self-respecting." Ji Man frowned, unable to retreat, thinking that he would simply open the door of the main courtyard and tell the old lady and aunt the prince to come and forget it.
Zhao Tuo backed away with a smile, and stuffed the Golden Dragon Stove into Ji Man's hand: "Stand outside, don't freeze."
This is what Ning Yuxuan saw when she first came in. Ji Man was standing against the wall, the prince was very close to her, and all the servants beside her were standing far away, with their heads down and their eyes closed, not daring to say a word.
Inexplicably angry in his heart, Ning Yuxuan walked over a few steps, pulled Ji Man behind him, looked at the prince expressionlessly and said: "Why do you come here when you have time, the emperor asked about His Highness's homework just now. "
Zhao Tuo didn't expect his father to let Ning Yuxuan leave so soon. The scene was a bit embarrassing, so he coughed lightly and said, "I'm here to pay my respects to the noble concubine. I heard that she is not in good health recently. I just met Sang Yuxuan." Yu, I just said a few more words."
Even Sangyu called? Ji Man's face was very ugly, and Ning Yuxuan was not much better, he squeezed her hand tightly, and said: "Then the prince goes in first, I have something to say with Sang Yu."
"Okay." The crown prince smiled slightly, regained his handsome appearance, and stepped into the main hall after being informed.
Ning Yuxuan pulled Ji Man and walked out.
Ji Man staggered along, stepping on the master's heels when he strode too far, staggering and almost falling. Ning Yuxuan seemed a little angry, his face was calm, but his steps were fast.
On a secluded palace road, he finally let her go, and said with a calm face: "Don't get too close to the prince, he is greedy for beauty, and once his temper comes up, no one can stop him."
Ji Man nodded, and casually threw the stove in his hand into the grass beside him. She can also see it today, this prince is the kind of flirtatious, he will hook up with a woman when he sees it, it is very dangerous.
"Slaves will try to avoid them," she said.
Ning Yuxuan couldn't get rid of her anger. Seeing that she had lost the stove, her face looked better. She pursed her lips and said, "It's fine for mother to live in the palace. You are married, so it wouldn't be good to live with you?"
There are so many messy people in the palace, if Concubine Nie is with the old lady every day, will she have to see the prince in the palace all the time
Ji Man frowned: "This is not up to the maidservant to decide, it is the old lady who wants the maidservant to accompany her, presumably she is alone in the palace and has no one to take care of her, so she brought the maidservant here."
Anyway, she also annoyed him in Marquis Moyu's mansion, isn't it the same anywhere
Ning Yuxuan paused for a while and said: "I'll confess to my mother later, you can help persuade her to let her go back."
"My servant thinks that Master Hou will come back after two days until the old lady is angry." Ji Man said earnestly: "You are angry, but you are not sincere in your apology, and you still want to protect your wife wholeheartedly. The old lady will not forgive you. "
Although this is the truth, but... Ning Yuxuan squeezed his fist, and finally sighed helplessly: "Then help me persuade me more."
"Yes." Ji Man agreed without distraction.
When we're done talking, it's time to go. But Mo Yuhou stood quietly, so she didn't dare to move, to see if he had any other orders.
"Prince, he..." After thinking for a long time, he is still not at ease: "Prince, he has seduced many wives, and his status is so obvious that it is difficult for people to refuse, you..."
Ji Man pursed her lips, and suddenly smiled: "Master Hou, don't worry, Sang Yu won't cuckold you. In case of being embarrassing and losing your innocence, Master Hou can simply abandon Sang Yu and save the reputation of the Hou Mansion." .”
Ning Yuxuan was taken aback for a moment, then his expression turned ugly: "Nie Sangyu."
"The servant is here."
"You really want me to divorce you?"
Ji Man shrugged: "If it wasn't because you want to balance the Queen's side with the Nie's side, Sang Yu would have been divorced a long time ago."
This is the truth, Mo Yuhou is a very smart person, although it seems that he has some disagreements with the old lady, the old lady is partial to the Nie family, and he is on good terms with the prince. But Moyuhou Mansion is actually a delicate balance point.
This is what Ji Man discovered after thinking for a long time, and he had to sigh in his heart that Mo Yuhou's city is actually much deeper than it looks, and every thing he does has his own meaning.
