It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

Early the next morning, Zhao Chengjun returned with everyone.

King Jing personally escorted the Xi family back, and the whole Xiping city made a sensation again. Although Zhao Chengjun had left in a team since entering the city, he took Tang Shishi and Lu Yufei's carriage back to the palace and asked Zhao Zixun and his guards to **** Xi's home back to the palace, but in the eyes of the onlookers, these details were completely ignored by them.

They only knew that King Jing hurried out of the city after the snowfall, and within a day, he personally picked up the Xi family's daughters back. I heard that in addition to Mrs. Xi, Miss Xi Er is also there.

Who is Miss Xi Er? That was the sister of King Jing's first fiancé Xi Yunwan. I heard that the two sisters look very similar, and Xi Yunchu's appearance and appearance are exactly the same as his sister.

Those who heard it sighed, Jing Wang is really a nostalgic person.

Shishi Tang finally returned to the mansion. As soon as he entered the second gate of the palace, Lu Yufei and Shishi Tang had no strength to greet each other and went back to the house to rest. After Master Tang came back, he took a shower and slept until dark before finally regaining his strength.

Cuckoo lit the lamp and helped Master Tang to sit up: "Girl, supper has been warming you up all the time, do you have an appetite now?"

Master Tang slept, full of energy, and even his appetite was restored. She thought for a while, and said: "It is not advisable to eat too much at night, and come over with something good."

"Yes."

Master Tang was wearing a Chinese coat, and there was no one in the house now, and she was too lazy to change her clothes, so she went to the dining room for dinner. Dujuan added vegetables to Master Tang and said angrily: "Girl, do you know that there have been many moths in the mansion after you have not been in these two days. I don't know who came in, saying that the prince is interested in marrying the Xi family." The prince has already ordered the eldest girl of the Xi family. It is a taboo for people to die before passing the door. It is not only their family in the world, how can the prince order the same sister twice?"

Master Tang took a sip of the soup and slowly said: "This is what the prince said."

Du Juan was completely stunned: "What?"

"Mrs. Xi asked the prince when he would marry his wife. The prince said in person that it should be soon." Master Tang put down the bowl, patted Du Juan's hand, and persuaded, "The matter is settled, I want to start soon. Wait for Miss Xi Er to enter the door, you If you still have this attitude, no one can save you."

Shishi Tang thought that she had a higher mind than the sky. As a result, Du Juan became more ambitious. She wanted to let Shishi Tang take the most open road, and even planned to make Shishi Tang the first person next to King Jing. Master Tang was very moved, but still chose to refuse.

Because, Master Tang's goal is Zhao Zixun.

Du Juan's ambition was hit head-on. She was a little unacceptable, and asked dullly: "When the prince said, did you really mention Miss Xi Er's name? Is there a misunderstanding?"

Master Tang looked at Du Juan with a foolish gaze, and said, "It's useless to have a fluke in your heart, so prepare early."

After Master Tang finished speaking, he went to the clean room to rinse his mouth. Dujuan stood at the table, thinking for a long time, but still refused.

Ming Ming Jing is the most different girl for girls. Even if the prince really intends to marry a wife, the candidate should be a girl. What is Xi Yunchu? If the prince intends to renew the marriage with the Xi family, it would have been renewed a long time ago. Why did he keep saying that he had no intention of marrying, and waited until this year to suddenly relax his tone?

There is a saying in the public that it was King Jing waiting for Miss Xi Er to grow up, so he said nothing to marry a wife. Du Juan thinks this statement is very ridiculous, who is King Jing, so likely to wait for a woman for so many years? Even if you are really waiting and cannot get married, can you still get engaged?

If a man really likes it, and he wants to immediately announce to the world and declare ownership, how can he be dragged in obscurity? There are no exceptions in the world. If the man doesn't take the initiative, he doesn't like it.

Du Juan was confused, took the ointment, and went into the inner room to apply medicine to Master Tang. Du Juan saw the bruise on Master Tang's back and was very speechless: "Girl, how did you do this?"

"Don't mention it." Master Tang veiled his face in the pillow, and said with an urn, "I accidentally fell off the carriage on the road, and it was like this."

Fell off the carriage? The more Dujuan heard it, the more strange it became. However, Master Tang buried his face, as if he didn't want to talk any more, Dujuan couldn't ask, so he could only give her medicine lightly.

After Dujuan applied the medicine, she covered Master Tang with a thin layer of gauze and went out. After waiting for the people to leave, Master Tang waited for a long time, making sure that there was no sound, and then quietly sneaked into the hidden grid.

Fortunately, the contents inside are still as they are and have not been discovered. Master Tang couldn't help but heaved a sigh of relief. She didn't bring a book this time when she went out.

Master Tang turned to the latest page under the cover of a pillow. The latest chapter says that Zhou Shunhua was awake in Zhuangzi, and Zhao Zixun also fell asleep alone, silently.

Lu Yufei was able to achieve a complete victory this time, all thanks to Zhao Chengjun's light, without the deterrence of King Jing, Zhao Zixun would never have sent Zhou Shunhua away. However, this is only a temporary solution, not the root cause. Lu Yufei seemed to have won, but in fact, he lost completely.

External force will only promote Zhao Zixun's rebellious psychology. The more outsiders oppose him, the deeper his feelings for Zhou Shunhua. Master Tang closed the book and sighed faintly.

It is no surprise that Lu Yufei has not been favored for many years. Disposal in a different place, if someone forcibly sends away the pet that Master Tang is fond of, Master Tang will have to hate him for many years, not to mention that Zhao Zixun is still a man and an emperor.

Although Zhou Shunhua was dangerous, it was not without the power to fight back, because in this way, Zhou Shunhua was pushed to the camp of Zhao Zixun. Lu Yufei was on the side of King Jing, the oppressor, while Zhou Shunhua was a teammate on the same front as Zhao Zixun.

Later, Zhao Zixun rebelled and overthrew Zhao Chengjun's decree after Zhao Chengjun's death. It was also for the same reason. Zhao Chengjun is really too strong, Zhao Zixun has no right to speak in the mansion, and even his most beloved woman can't keep it. As soon as Zhao Chengjun frowned, Zhao Zixun would send his beloved concubine away in fear. How could Zhao Zixun not be resentful in the long run?

If it's a biological son, it's fine. No matter how strict the father is, he will eventually break the bones and tendons, but the adopted son is different.

Teacher Tang sighed, no wonder the old saying goes that the same qi is linked, and the **** of blood is irreversible. The contradiction between Zhao Chengjun and Zhao Zixun is an unsolvable situation.

Master Tang sighed for a moment and hid the book again. No matter how sorrowful the father and son are, one of them is the prince and the other is the son of the world. It is not the turn of Master Tang to show mercy. With this time, she still think about herself.

The following chapters in the book are all related to Nanshan Zhuangzi, that is to say, the palace has become a blank.

Master Tang took a deep breath, she could no longer predict the plot, and for a long time to come, she could only rely on herself.

Misfortune, prosperity, honor and disgrace, in one fell swoop.

Lu Yufei leaned on the pillow, startled to stir the porridge in his hand. Outside the door closed softly, Lu Yufei raised his head in surprise and said: "Where is the eldest son... Where's the elder son?"

The dowry maid lowered her head and said in embarrassment: "The elder concubine, the young man said that the elder concubine is already asleep. If you have anything to say, you might as well go tomorrow."

Lu Yufei slumped, she looked at the porridge in her hand, suddenly dull, and threw it on the table in disgust.

Lu Yufei's face was unabashedly lonely, she muttered in a low voice: "Is the elder son blame me?"

The dowry maid lowered her head and dared not speak. The concubine was too high by the family, and the journey went smoothly, and she couldn't bear any setbacks. Zhou Shunhua left the eldest son on the fifteenth hook, which made the eldest concubine shame, and the eldest concubine must make Zhou Shunhua pay the price for profit.

It's right to be jealous, but the concubine Shi Ziqian shouldn't be absolutely wrong, and shouldn't go to King Jing. Everything is done in the house, and once it gets in front of King Jing, no one can get it right.

Afterwards, Lu Yufei also felt that she was too impulsive. When she went to Guangji Temple this time, she originally planned to repair the old with Zhao Zixun, but when she encountered a snowstorm on the road, she had to turn back halfway. On the return trip, she showed good wishes several times, and Zhao Zixun was neither cold nor hot, and even faintly impatient.

Yes, impatient. Lu Yufei was really scared this time. Did she do something irreversibly wrong?

However, this is the end of the matter, what can Lu Yufei do? She can only continue to be tough, telling everyone that she is not wrong, and can't even show regret in front of the dowry maid. Lu Yufei was depressed for a while, forcibly cheered up, and said: "The son may be too tired today. After a while, he will always change his mind. Zhou Shunhua has been dealt with by me, and then I will comfort Xi's family again, my plan That's it."

Xi's family is the only gain from this trip. Lu Yufei originally wanted to link the Xi family, so he specially invited Xi Yunchu. Unexpectedly, it was a mistake, but he tried to find out the true intentions of King Jing.

Lu Yufei raised her eyebrows. She felt that it was her own credit. If she hadn't invited Xi Yunchu, and if they didn't encounter any danger on the road, how could King Jing care about it and get married? Lu Yufei triumphantly said: "I have shown such a great kindness to the Xi family, they don't know how to thank me. With Xi Yunchu's help in the future, I am not alone in the mansion, and I have suffered from the enemy."

The maid was a little worried, and cautiously reminded: "Earth concubine, if the second girl can really enter the mansion, then she is the princess. At that time, the princess will be in charge of the princess."

"How is it possible?" Lu Yufei said with a sullen face, "Xi Yun was able to be a princess in the first place. It is all up to me. If she doesn't repay her favor, can she still grab things with me?"

"Otherwise?" The maid sighed and whispered, "The second girl Xi is proud and arrogant, I am afraid that she may not recognize the help of the concubine. After all, the concubine is different from the concubine. Then she will have the courtesy to support her and the king's favor. I’m afraid, I’m not willing to succumb to others."

In fact, the dowry maid always disagrees with Lu Yufei's support for Xi Yunchu. There is no room for two tigers, and there can only be one mistress in a mansion. Lu Yufei has no mother-in-law and no sister-in-law, how easy it is to be alone, why does he have to bring a mother-in-law in?

Isn't this just adding to yourself?

The dowry maid was worried, and persuaded Lu Yufei: "Girl, the maidservant knows that you are kind, but you can't trust it all in Xi's family. Your son is the foundation of your life. You have to prepare yourself."

Lu Yufei sat for a while with a calm face, and finally had to admit that the maid was right. Xi Yunchu is not a good person, obviously half a bucket of water is sloshing, and he prefers to give directions. Even if Xi Yunchu was grateful for her at first, after a long time, Xi Yunchu would be ungrateful.

She can win over Xi Yunchu to be a helper, but she can't count on Xi Yunchu to be the trump card. Lu Yufei can rely on himself.

Lu Yufei squeezed the palms of her hands tightly, and her knuckles were slightly whitish because of too much force. After a while, Lu Yufei gritted his teeth and said: "Zhou Shunhua is gone. It's wrong that there is no one who is waiting for the son of the world, so let's give the son of a concubine."

The next day, after Lu Yufei sent away Ying'an's concubine, he called his dowry maid to come in. She looked left and right, not at ease looking at it.

Before a woman gets married, her mother always prepares her daughter to dowry a maid. These women have good looks and enchanting figures, but they are pinched in the wife's house. In the unlikely event that a daughter fails to give birth to a child, or the aunt loves the new and dislikes the old, these dowry maids are tools for solid pets.

Naturally, Lu Yufei also had a dowry maid, but she stubbornly stubbornly opened her face to her maid. Once this step is taken, it will never be repossessed. Not only will the friendship between Lu Yufei and the master and servant of this maid be severed, even the rest of the servants will have their minds floating. After all, if you can be the master, who wants to be a maid?

Even if there is a contract to sell one's body, there is no guarantee that these people will not be extraneous. Lu Yufei thought and thought, and finally said to the personal maid: "Come here, get your clothes, I'm going to greet my father."

Lu Yufei thought it out, instead of hurting his own manpower, it would be better to let those people in Yunyuan bite their dogs. Anyway, these women will be executed sooner or later. They are talented and beautiful, and they are destined to have no children. This is the person who will not pose a threat to Lu Yufei.

When Master Tang was copying books in the study in the afternoon, he received a message from Du Juan. Master Tang remained silent, quietly went out, walked to the corner and asked, "What's the matter?"

Du Juan had been looking around here all afternoon. Just now, after finally catching the sisters he knew well, he finally called Master Tang out. Du Juan looked around, lowered his voice, and said to Master Tang: "Girl, there is a happy event in Liuyunyuan."

"what's up?"

"Ji Meiren has been chosen as the concubine's room."

Master Tang was startled and couldn't help raising his eyebrows: "Ji Xinxian?"

"Yes."

This is not a trivial matter. Master Tang and Liu Ji took leave and walked quickly to the backyard. On the way, Dujuan will repeat today's events to Master Tang.

"I heard that it was the imperial concubine who went to petition with the prince to request that Ji Meiren be given to the prince, and the prince agreed. At noon, the prince's mother came to Liuyunyuan and gave Ji Meiren a few pieces of red fabrics. The beauty is twisting her face. Now Liuyunyuan is lively. After a while, Ji Meiren will move to Shizi’s backyard."

Teacher Tang listened thoughtfully, indeed, Lu Yufei came here once in the morning, she went inside and said something, and she came out immediately. Seeing that everything was calm and calm, Master Tang didn't take this matter to heart. Unexpectedly, Lu Yufei actually went to take a concubine.

Teacher Tang didn’t know what to say. Lu Yufei was really a benchmark for a virtuous woman. On the second day of marriage, he carried Zhao Zixun's two concubine rooms. Now it has just been three months, Lu Yufei gave Zhao Zixun again. Accept the third concubine.

Does she feel that life is too comfortable, or is she afraid that she has fallen out of favor not thoroughly enough?

It is difficult for Tang Shishi to understand. She went back to the Jianjiayuan and simply put things away, without changing her clothes, she hurried to the Liuyunyuan for "Daoxi".

Shishi Tang was the last to enter the door. When she arrived, Liuyunyuan stood on a spot like a beauty, and even Ren Yujun, who had been out of the circle for a long time, came. The women gathered around Ji Xinxian to talk. Ji Xinxian had just twisted the hair on her face, her hair turned into a bun, and she was smiling contentedly.

Master Tang came in, and the room was silent for a moment. Then everyone stood up and greeted Master Tang with a smile: "Girl Tang is here, let the busy people take a seat."

Master Tang ignored their ridicule. Master Tang smiled and congratulated Ji Xinxian, saying, "Congratulations, sister, I'm late, and I hope sister Ji will not blame it."

"Where can I blame Girl Tang?" Ji Xinxian stood up from her seat, with raised eyebrows, seeming to ridicule and show off, "Now who knows that Girl Tang is the number one celebrity next to the prince, and it is too late for me to please my sister, how dare I offend him? In the future, when I enter the yard of the prince’s son, I will be a generation lower than Girl Tang. I also hope that Girl Tang will speak kind words to the prince and take care of her younger sister one or two."

Teacher Tang should naturally be. Master Tang came, and everyone rearranged their seats. Master Tang sat in the front, holding Ji Xinxian's hand to give birth to a "sister affection": "I was in the front yard and the news was slow. I just learned that sister Ji had such good luck. Shizi Fengshen is handsome, sister Ji is charming and charming, you two can't match the talents of men and women. In the future, sister Ji must serve the elder son well, and don’t let the elder concubine's expectations be disappointed."

Ji Xinxian looked confident, her chin raised slightly, and she said loudly: "This is natural. Sister Zhou is gone, and the concubine is busy with housework. I must take over Sister Zhou's important task and take care of the son. Sister Ren, you say yes. Isn't it?"

As if Ji Xinxian had already decided, she would definitely be more pampered than Zhou Shunhua.

Ren Yujun sat in the crowd with a dazed expression. Ji Xinxian did not prevent Ji Xinxian from mentioning her. Ren Yujun was taken aback and then reacted: "Yes, that's right. I am rigid and boring, not as lively as Sister Zhou and Sister Ji. From now on, the elder son will ask Sister Ji. ."

Although Ren Yujun's remarks are self-effacing, they are not exaggerated. Before, Ren Yujun always followed Zhou Shunhua no matter what he did, and everyone felt that these two people were the same. But after the two became the concubines of the eldest son at the same time, the situation was quite different.

Although Shi Zi accepted Ren Yujun, he was still polite to her, but he couldn't say that he loved her much, and was completely incomparable with Zhou Shunhua. Before Zhou Shunhua was in front of him, Ren Yujun could be divided into one or two days in a month. Now Zhou Shunhua is finally gone. Ren Yujun thinks it is finally his turn to be favored, but Ji Xinxian is here again.

Ji Xinxian has a charming appearance, a flamboyant personality, and a fresh person. How can Ren Yujun compete with her? Maybe this is fate, Ji Xinxian is triumphant and high-spirited, but Ren Yujun is bored and doesn't even want to say anything.

Today's Ren Yujun, where is the proud and bright when he first left the palace? In just one year, the brilliance of her body was wiped out.

The women help Ren Yujun to speak with each other, saying it's comfort, but it's actually more like a fire. Master Tang smiled to deal with these hypocritical sisters. Even when Ji Xinxian complained that the concubine sent a lot of jewelry, she couldn't use it up, and Master Tang couldn't turn her face.

In this room, whoever can't help being nauseous first loses.

After all, Ji Xinxian had enough to show off, and finally he was willing to let Master Tang go out. Teacher Tang secretly breathed a sigh of relief, and quickly left.

Feng Qian saw this and left with Tang Shishi.

Walking on the road, Feng Qian and Master Tang sighed: "It's really unpredictable. Among the ten people in our group, Sister Tang is the most beautiful. As a result, Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun are favored one after another, but Sister Tang is not cared about. Now even Ji Xinxian has been selected. My sister didn't move. It's really unfair."

Master Tang rolled his eyes in his heart, this little bitch, Ji Xinxian was jealous, came here to provoke her, Master Tang was not fooled by her! Teacher Tang smiled softly, and said virtuously: "It's all the matter of the world to pet and reward. As maidservants, we only care about our lives and serve, and don't interfere with the master's decision."

"What Sister Tang said. Sister really deserves to be the one who reads with the prince, she knows the general body." Feng Qian hugged Master Tang's arm and acted affectionately. "I actually always think that Ji Xinxian looks like an older sister, but she is nowhere near as good-looking as her sister. No matter how much Ji Xinxian is favored, he is only the concubine of the elder son, how can he compare to her sister? My sister is a celebrity beside the prince, and in terms of seniority, she is much higher than them."

"Feng Qian, don't talk nonsense." Teacher Tang said coldly, "Ji Xinxian is a half master, and I'm just a handmaid. She respects me. How can there be no generations? If you talk nonsense, I will I won't help you cover it up."

Feng Qian quickly asked for mercy. Zhao Chengjun's position in the palace is supreme, no one dared to break King Jing, Tang Shishi's face was slightly cold, Feng Qian did not dare to continue talking.

If they were really stabbed by Master Tang to King Jing, all of them would not be pleased.

Feng Qian touched her facelessly, and walked away angrily after a while. Master Tang heaved a sigh of relief. Now that it was sunset, Master Tang had no intention of going back to copy the book, so he went straight back to Jianjia Courtyard.

Anyway, she was just in the study, but it didn't matter if she didn't go there occasionally. Today, Zhao Chengjun is no one in sight, so I would never know that she was absent from work.

Teacher Tang returned to the room with peace of mind. After eating and taking a bath, she sent people away, holding her wet long hair, rubbing her hair and flipping through the book.

This is what she must do every day. It takes a long time and has been able to do so. Master Tang had habitually scanned it, and when he saw the contents, his pupils shrank severely.

She immediately threw away her hair, put her fingers on the pages of the book, and read the contents word by word. After reading it, Master Tang was struck by lightning, and he couldn't recover for a long time.

In the book, it is her who is carried as a concubine today.

But now, this person has changed from Master Tang to Ji Xinxian. Master Tang looked back and forth, and finally confirmed that there were no errors, and the following catalogues were all favored by Master Tang and bullying others.

Undoubtedly, today was supposed to be the critical moment for Master Tang to enter the stage of competing for the favor, and since then compete for the main storyline, but now, she has completely missed her own storyline.
