A Scumbag Father Doting on His Concubine

Xie Yunshu couldn't figure it out, so she just pretended that she didn't know anything and talked politely to Concubine Xiang.

Concubine Xiang suddenly smiled, glanced at Xie Yunshu, slowly held the lid and gently played with the bowl of tea in her hand, and said slowly: "I heard that Concubine Shu gave someone to the crown prince years ago, but why didn't she see the crown prince? Take it with you when you go out? Nowadays, there is only one person around the Crown Prince besides the Crown Princess. You should take the Crown Princess with you when you go out, so that others can see her and praise the Crown Princess for her virtuousness. Wouldn't it be good?"

Xie Yunshu smiled and said: "What I have mentioned is that I have remembered it."

 Remember means remember, what to do next time is her business, what does it have to do with Concubine Xiang?

She did not play word games with Concubine Xiang, saying that it was just a little palace maid given by Concubine Shu to the East Palace, not for the Crown Prince, and so on.

Everyone knew who Concubine Shu was giving away to, and no one could fault her for playing such a clear-minded person, but her reputation as a petty and intolerant person could not escape her.

 She didn't care, but the Crown Princess had to worry a little.

Especially, you have to worry about what the emperor will think if he finds out.

Even though the Emperor promised that the Crown Prince would not rush to give him concubines or beauties, it did not mean that he agreed that the Crown Prince only had Xie Yunshu by his side and did not even have a common roommate.

It will be a big loss if you make him unhappy just to gain the upper hand verbally.

Concubine Xiang didn't expect her attitude to be so good, so she choked for a moment. She smiled half-sneered, half-ridiculously: "The Crown Princess is really virtuous and virtuous, and she listens to advice."

Xie Yunshu smiled and said, "What you say makes sense, I will naturally listen to you."

Concubine Xiang: "Ha!"

That was the person sent by Concubine Shu. No matter what, Concubine Xiang could not do anything to ask Xie Yunshu to go back to the palace and bring the person to her to see. After saying this, Concubine Xiang became a joke.

She also wanted to give the prince a wife, but the time was not right at the moment and she couldn't give it to him.

No princess came to visit the palace on the first day of the new year, so she ended up giving someone a common concubine.

If she did something like this, not only would she become a joke, but she would also be too low-ranking and out of place. I'm afraid the emperor would be displeased if he knew about it.

It doesn’t matter if the emperor is just displeased. Once the emperor is displeased, he will have compassion and love, feeling that the prince and the princess have been wronged! It must be another reward.

Just like on the day of the New Year, not only were the prince and princess given fur cloaks, but the next day, two boxes of antiques and treasures and countless edible tributes were delivered to the East Palace.

 And her son is getting married in early February. It will not do her any good to displease the emperor now.

Concubine Xiang had no choice but to endure her dissatisfaction and displeasure. She talked to Xie Yunshu for a while with a calm expression and then sent him away.

Since we can't take care of her for the time being, we can just ignore her.

Xie Yunshu was puzzled all the way. She thought about it and couldn't figure out when she or the prince had provoked Concubine Xiang.

 Eat the melon system? It doesn't know either.

 At Concubine Jing's place, who knows that Concubine Xin is also there, and she seems to have a good relationship with Concubine Jing.

Xie Yunshu subconsciously relaxed a little, and the three of them got along very harmoniously.

Xie Yunshu secretly thought that Concubine Xin was much smarter than she thought. She specifically chose Concubine Jing, the weakest of the three concubines, to befriend her, which would naturally be good for her. Concubine Jing is probably happy with this. After wandering around the palace for a while, Xie Yunshu returned to the East Palace after noon.

The Crown Prince has not come back yet. There will be a big court today and a New Year's banquet for the courtiers after that. I'm afraid he won't come back until the evening.

Aunt You stepped forward to report that the various gifts she had prepared for returning to Xie's Mansion tomorrow had been moved to the check-in room and put away, and could be loaded into the car early tomorrow morning. He also took the booklet and asked the princess to look at the days when she attended various hall meetings during the Spring Festival, as well as some arrangements for the banquet held on the sixth day of the East Palace. It took me more than half an hour to finish.

 Although these matters have been regulated as early as a year ago, there are still many details that can only be finalized now.

 As soon as Aunt You stepped back, Grandma An came.

Xie Yunshu hurriedly offered a seat and asked with a smile: "Thank you for your hard work, Grandma Chun. How are Grandma Chun and her family doing?"

Fang Xiaorou has been released from confinement. Years ago, Xie Yunshu drove a carriage with Aunt Chun to Beizhuhuangzhuang for a family reunion.

Of course, a reunion is a reunion, and the whole family is still under house arrest in their own yard. All the members of their family were transferred away, and three or four rough servants were hired to take charge of some heavy work.

Although this family has a bad reputation and no longer poses any threat to the Crown Prince, it is probably impossible for them to be free until the Crown Prince ascends the throne.

Fang Muen, Fang Xiaoman, and Fang Xiaorou are not fuel-efficient lamps, and they will definitely cause trouble when they come out.

Even though they were under house arrest, Xie Yunshu would not skimp on their food. How much can they use? There's no need to develop a reputation for being mean.

Aunt An smiled and said, "Don't worry, Princess. This old servant is keeping an eye on this matter. I sent people to see it two days ago. They don't need anything, and no one is depriving them of anything."

They used to show off their power in Beizhuhuangzhuang, and many people hated them. Now that they are under house arrest there, it is inevitable that the walls will fall and everyone will push them.

Xie Yunshu doesn't care about the trivial things in daily life, but it cannot be implemented according to the actual situation.

The family is living a good life with good food and drink, so they can’t be too angry, right? It's better to be a little angry.

Aunt An said again: "I came here for another matter. Na Ruyan had a high fever this morning. It's difficult to call a doctor during the first month of the year. So I asked someone to quietly get two sets of medicine and fry them in the yard." After drinking it, I thought I should tell the princess."

After hearing this, Xie Yunshu sneered: "Can you figure out how she got the high fever?"

Aunt An: "The old slave separately examined the two young maids serving. They both said that they had been taking good care of them and did not dare to be lazy. The old slave checked again. The kang in her living room was warm, and the quilts in the bedroom were warm. It's thick, there are enough clothes, and there's enough charcoal fire. I got sick on the first day of the new year, I'm afraid it was intentional."

 Xie Yunshu has already asked about the melon-eating system, but it was not intentional.

Deliberately falling ill during the first month of the year, trying to use this to cause trouble and force Xie Yunshu to release her, or hoping that the prince would know about it and make the prince feel pity. It is unlucky to ask the prince to anger the princess and her housekeeper for neglecting his duties. It is unlucky for someone in the household to get sick during the first month of the year.

If Nanny An had not returned to the East Palace and Xie Yunshu had asked her to take care of such troublesome matters, the servant girl who delivered the meal would have panicked and screamed as soon as she found out that Ruyan was sick in the morning. However, she and the Crown Prince both entered the palace early this morning. If he is gone, everyone who made the noise will know it. At that time, it would not be appropriate to keep Ruyan under house arrest in the name of studying.

 She was the one sent by Concubine Shu after all.

 It’s okay to spare it.

It's a pity that Aunt An is keeping an eye on her. Even if she dies of illness, she won't be able to make any waves.
