A Scumbag Father Doting on His Concubine

Aunt Ling said with a smile: "After all, the old lady still loves the Crown Princess the most. The Crown Princess is back, and the old lady is smiling so happily!"

Mrs. Xie's face was full of doting, and she hugged Xie Yunshu full of love. "That's not true. There is no child better than our Shu'er. How can she be blamed for people to love her!"

The ladies were chatting and joking lively, when suddenly someone from the Qi family came to report: Madam Qi passed away, and she came here to report her funeral.

 After sending Qi’s wife away, the room became quiet for a while.

Hearing such things around the year always makes people feel unhappy, especially for an older person like Mrs. Xie.

Xie Yunshu felt secretly in her heart. Is this what the old woman from the Qi family told her?

 That old lady from the Qi family is also very cruel.

 Xie Yunshu really has no good impression of the Qi family.

However, it is a good thing that a lunatic like Mrs. Qi is finally over, otherwise I really don’t know what she would do with her desperate madness.

 Shu Fei and the others will not let go of the opportunity to take advantage.

Su said softly: "I have long heard that the eldest lady of the Qi family is ill, but I didn't expect that she would not be able to survive it after all. It's just fate! I'm afraid I have to ask Mrs. Qi and the Marquis to go there..."

Speaking of the Qi family, the old lady frowned. She didn't know about Xie Yunqian yet. If she found out about it, there would be a big fuss. It would be a disaster and make people uneasy!

Old lady Xie then said: "It would be disrespectful for her not to go, and our family would be disgraced. Just keep an eye on her more carefully. Aunt Ling will accompany her when she arrives."

Mr. Su and Aunt Ling agreed.

Mrs. Xie patted Xie Yunshu's hand gently and said with a warm smile: "You are busy at the end of the year. Just send someone to give you a gift. There is no need to go."

Xie Yunshu didn't say anything at first, but smiled and nodded.

The three ladies put aside this matter and talked about other things. Xie Yunshu had lunch and then went back.

As expected, the Qi family also sent someone to report the funeral to the East Palace. Xie Yunshu left it to Eunuch Xia and asked him to go there in person and offer three sticks of incense.

As a princess, she naturally has to be broad-minded. How can she remember past grudges?

 Besides, when one dies and the debt is gone, one should pay more respect to the elders.

The Qi family also felt unlucky when Mrs. Qi died. Besides, it was unlucky to hold a funeral during the year. The Qi family had no connections in Beijing, so Mrs. Qi's funeral was held in a very low-key manner.

As expected, Mrs. Qi started looking for a son and a daughter after leaving Mingse Hall. When she heard that Xie Yunshu had gone to Zhuangzi to recuperate due to illness, Mrs. Qi made a scene and asked Mrs. Su to put it down with a strong attitude.

Ms. Qi was so angry that she cursed Mr. Su with vicious eyes, and her curses were even more vicious and sinister.

Su Shi was extremely disgusted, but she was too lazy to argue with people like her, so she still kept her under house arrest in Minse Hall. It's just that this is not a long-term solution after all, which makes people a little worried.

Xie Yunshu was worried and understood clearly through the eating melon system. She thought that when she returned to her parents' home on the second day of the Lunar New Year, she would have to have a good talk with Mrs. Qi to see if she wanted a son or a daughter!

Mother is still too kind and doesn’t understand threats, so she doesn’t care about that. On this day of Xiaonian, people worship their ancestors, and so does the royal family.

On this day, Xie Yunshu and the Crown Prince entered the palace early in the morning, and went to Qianqing Palace to pay their respects to the Emperor. Then Xie Yunshu went to Concubine Shu, and then together with Concubine Shu and other female family members, waited for the Emperor and the princes to gather together. Offer incense, kowtow and worship in the front hall.

 After worshiping the ancestors in the first hall, there is a palace banquet, and after the palace banquet, everyone goes home. Every year after worshiping the ancestors, it is also the time when the emperor gives rewards to the concubines, princes and princesses. Tributes from various places began to arrive in Beijing as early as early November, and basically everything that was due to be sent in early December was delivered.

The little **** announced the decree, and everyone listened, and the recipients thanked each other one by one. Others rarely listened attentively, and compared what others got with their own.

Of course, among the concubines in the palace, no one could surpass Concubine Shu. Concubine Shu received a higher reward than anyone else. After all, she ruled the Sixth Palace, and the emperor always had to take her face into consideration.

 The next one is Concubine Xiang and Concubine Jing.

Compared to Ying concubine, Xin concubine’s income is much richer, more than half more than that of Ying concubine. Concubine Ying was so embarrassed that her face almost lost its expression.

Concubine Shu and the other three concubines quietly raised their lips, but they understood very well in their hearts, and they pampered Concubine Xin as if the Emperor's old house was on fire. This was the first New Year after Concubine Xin entered the palace. The Emperor I don’t know how many rewards were given to her in private!

It means that the concubines below are ignorant and not well-informed. Not to mention that they don’t pay attention at all on weekdays. Even if they are careful, they may not know many things.

But the third concubine could see clearly what kind of rewards the emperor usually gave to the concubine Xin, but sometimes the jewelry and the materials used in the clothes worn by the concubine were not at all what the official rewards were. Where could it have come from?

  Not to mention all kinds of food at the entrance.

It’s funny that Concubine Ying feels that she can’t keep her face on her face. What’s wrong with her?

 But soon, the third concubine’s face became a little confused.

 Because the emperor's rewards to the prince and princess were much more generous than others.

Forty pieces of cloud brocade, twenty pieces of tapestry of various colors, twenty pieces of gold-woven silk, twenty pieces of Song brocade, twenty pieces of floral satin, twenty pieces of peacock brocade, twenty pieces of Ning silk, ten pieces of Sichuan brocade, of various colors One hundred pieces of Hangzhou silk, as well as various furs such as fox fur, sable, cashmere, camel hair, etc.

The clothing materials alone were more than double what Concubine Shu had.

The Crown Princess was given four sets of complete sets of emerald, inlaid, emerald, and pearl head and face jewelry. There was also a pair of phoenixes holding pearls and walking towards the sun, which was even more luxurious and dazzling. It was not only valuable, but also a symbol of status.

Everyone who saw it would know: the emperor is extremely satisfied with the princess.

Everyone knows that the Emperor is partial to the Crown Prince. Over the years, they have gotten used to it. But after the Prince's wedding, the Emperor's partiality has become even more limitless.

Honestly, the prince is his closest relative, and everyone else is separated from him!

No matter how angry everyone was, they didn't dare to show it. Instead, they smiled in a good-natured way.

 The prince is indifferent to everyone's reactions, and he has long been used to it.

 In any case, he is in this position, no matter whether he is high-profile or low-profile, they will always dislike him, and in this case, there is nothing to hide.

His father is willing to favor him, but he is happy before it's too late, and he doesn't care about the envy and jealousy he suffers - even if his father is not partial, as long as he is the prince, don't they feel jealous and jealous?

The father is partial, so they have to be even more afraid. He could accept and defend his father's favoritism, so they had nothing to do with him.

The prince led Xie Yunshu to express his gratitude calmly and asked the eunuchs to carry the long dragon-like reward back to the East Palace. (End of chapter)
