It’s Better to be the Empress Dowager

On the fifth day of October, Mother Feng followed the officials of the Ministry of Rites and set off to return to Beijing together.

There are also a few charming beauties with him. These beauties were very reluctant. They stood by the side of the car and cried for a long time when they got into the car. Finally, they were forcibly dragged into the car by the sturdy servant woman.

The convoy started creaking, and the wedding of King Jing came to an end.

Madam Feng took the news that the beauty of the palace had left. Everyone heard that King Jing was irritated by the beauties and caused the princess to have a fetal gas. They sent everyone away without frowning. They were shocked and speechless. .

This princess who turned out to be so favored? This incident was very deterrent in Xiping City. For a while, no one dared to gossip about Princess Jing and Xi's family. No matter how much the Xi family emphasizes that Xi Yunwan is the original match, it can't compare to the current princess of Tang Shishi. Not only did they conceive King Jing's heirs, they were favored by the prince, and Miyagi was behind them. The triple auras are superimposed, who is mad and dare to offend this one?

Lu Yufei breathed a sigh of relief after seeing off Mother Feng. After Lu Yufei rested for two days, he finally eased his breath. She changed her home-style clothes and talked to the nurse in a leisurely manner: "These people can be regarded as gone. These days, I am afraid that I am afraid to say a word or take a wrong step, so I am afraid that I will make a fool of myself in front of the people in the palace. Fortunately, they left. So I can sleep peacefully."

Grandma Zhang said: "Isn't it? Those court mamas looked weird and stereotyped, and weird to get along with them. But the concubine did not see them a few times. They were disciplined by the concubine, and they had nothing to do with the concubine. The imperial concubine just stays on the fief and enjoys the blessing."

Lu Yufei also felt grief: "Yes. Fortunately, I don't have to deal with them in the future. If I live in the palace and everyone around me is like this, it would be terrible."

Mother Zhang paused slightly and thought of the other women in the palace. Lu Yufei just looked at it and couldn't bear the suffering of the palace nurses, but those few had gone through the draft and emerged from the army.

Teacher Tang is even the first among the show girls. Grandma Zhang suddenly discovered that they had fallen into a misunderstanding. They felt that Master Tang was stupid, utilitarian, and terribly useless, but you should know that Master Tang had lived in a place like the palace for three years as the number one in the draft. Will there be stupid people who can walk out of the Forbidden City alive?

Mother Zhang suddenly had a chill in her back, as if she had overlooked a very important thing. Lu Yufei also thought of the few remaining palace beauties in the palace. After the triple screening of the draft, the Chuxiu Palace, and the Jing Palace, the ones who can stay now are undoubtedly the strong ones. This is the same as cultivating Gu, there seems to be fewer women in the mansion, but the degree of danger has risen linearly.

Mother Zhang sighed: "When the people in the palace left two days ago, those five beauties cried like people in tears. Poor see, they returned to the palace, how can there be any good fruits to eat? Those guards were heart-hearted, I was one of them. The old lady couldn't bear it, but they didn't move."

"Otherwise?" Lu Yufei disdainfully said, "The prince personally ordered it, and Grandma Feng also agreed. How dare those guards pity Xiangxiyu? They can only cry now, and when they return to the palace, even crying is probably a sin. "

Grandma Zhang sighed: "The prince really indulged that one. Those beauties only spoke a few words, and the words were reasonable. As a result, that one got angry, and everyone was driven away. Take it for a while. The wind and the waves are calm, and the sea and the sky are wide. What's the point?"

Lu Yufei said coolly: "She has a gold medal for immunity from death in her stomach, so naturally she doesn't want to bear it, and she doesn't want to retire. I don't believe it, the prince will really not accept concubines. The prince said that is just to take care of the overall situation, in order to let the children live safely. Come down, hold her steady for the time being. I want to see how she will end up when she has no support in her stomach when she gives birth to a child."

Madam Zhang also agreed with this. Three wives and four concubines for men are justified. How can there be men in the world who refuse to take concubines? It’s just that Prince Jing’s situation is special. Prince Jing had his first child at the age of twenty-five. From pregnancy to confinement, Master Tang has six or seven months of free time. If the concubine is accepted, the concubine's room will definitely break the head rivalry. When the time comes, the yin and the yang will be constantly recruited in the back house. If the child is injured, the gain is not worth the loss. .

Presumably King Jing didn't buy a concubine room because of this consideration. Concubine can be taken at any time, but heirs are hard-won and cannot take risks.

Grandma Zhang persuaded Lu Yufei: "Early concubine, now the attitude of the prince is very obvious. The little master in the belly of the princess is the most important person in the palace. No one can harm the little master in any matter. Your concubine, please bear with him for the time being. , Don’t provoke the princess, just endure until she gives birth to a child."

For the time being, everyone said so. Lu Yufei was not convinced, but who made Master Tang be the princess, and she was just the concubine? Lu Yufei reluctantly responded: "I know, I will avoid her during this time."

"Oh, concubine, you can't hide." Grandma Zhang was anxious and persuaded, "Concubine, after all, she is your nominal mother-in-law. Even if you don't have to set rules, you can't be less. Would you like to serve the princess?"

"What?" Lu Yufei's eyes widened when he heard that it was incredible, "I, go and serve her?"

"Yeah." Mother Zhang tried her best to speak tactfully, and said roundly, "You are a serious wife. If you don't go, wouldn't it be cheaper for others? Zhou Shunhua and Ren Yujun are both here, and Ji Xinxian also went today."

Lu Yufei was shocked, and instantly sat up straight from sitting down, his expression changed: "Is it serious?"

"Naturally take it seriously, the old slave can still tell the elder concubine or concubine?" Grandma Zhang said bitterly, "Earth consort, you are easy to hire a villain. If you leave it alone, you may decide how those people arrange you. Go and see. ."

Lu Yufei was really horrified. She originally thought that everyone would not greet Master Tang, so she never took it seriously. How could I think that everyone had agreed not to go, but in the end everyone else went except her.

Lu Yufei yelled angrily, changed clothes quickly, and rushed to Yan'an Courtyard.

When Lu Yufei arrived, the Yan'an Courtyard was full of pearls and greenery, and laughed. Lu Yufei kept cursing Zhou Shunhua, Ren Yujun and other **** in his heart, and he had to put on a smile on his face, happily saluting Master Tang: "See the princess."

"Yeah, the concubine Shizi is here." Master Tang laughed and said, "Get up quickly. Du Juan, show the concubine Shizi."

Lu Yufei looked around, how dare he sit down in front of Master Tang. She resolutely refused, saying: "The princess is the elder, and the concubine is humble. How can the concubine dare to sit down in front of the princess? The concubine should stand and serve the princess."

Master Tang hypocritically declined: "How good is this? We are about the same age, how can I let you do things like serving tea and water like maids?"

The other women just smiled, they believed in Master Tang's evil! Outside the western room, a maid stopped in front of Duobao Pavilion and asked: "Wang Hao, it's time for dinner. Do you want to have dinner?"

Master Tang vomited what he ate some time ago, and his appetite gradually improved over the past few days, and he often felt hungry. Zhao Chengjun refused to let Master Tang eat more, but increased the number of meals, letting her eat less and more meals.

Now, it is time for Master Tang to use one of the meals.

Several women of the family line formed a vicious competition, and no one moved for a while. In the end, Zhou Shunhua was most willing to open his face and stepped forward and said: "Wang, the concubine is waiting for you to eat."

Master Tang raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "How can this work? You are still older than me."

"What does it have to do with age?" Zhou Shunhua said, "Please be kind to the princess."

She wants to rush to serve her, of course Master Tang will not refuse. Master Tang nodded and said lightly: "Then as you wish, yes."

The maids stepped forward and checked what was on Zhou Shunhua's body, then tied her sleeves, exposed her wrists, and stared at Zhou Shunhua's clean hands. Master Tang's diet is especially expensive, and the person who is serving must examine the whole body and expose his intact arms to prevent poisoning from the sleeves.

Several other people saw Zhou Shunhua's attitude, and they all couldn't stand up. People are most afraid of comparison, so they seem to be unfilial. Ren Yujun also said: "The concubine is willing to serve the princess."

Ji Xinxian glared at Ren Yujun angrily, and hurriedly said, "So does the concubine."

The four wives and concubines, the other three turned their backs one after another, and now only Lu Yufei is left. Lu Yufei bit her silver teeth into pieces with hatred, and at last she could only smile and said: "A few beauties are really positive, as if you are the princess's decent daughter-in-law. Princess, serving you is your daughter-in-law's duty, how can you? Prosthetic hands? Or your daughter-in-law."

Master Tang tried his best to hold back his laugh, and said in a humble manner: "The concubine of the empire was born with a noble birth and full of economics. Your hands are used for writing and painting. How can you do the work of serving others? The concubine of the empire should go back and rest. I have them here. Three are enough."

The more Tang Shishi said that, the more Lu Yufei couldn't leave. It is the duty of the daughter-in-law to stay in the morning and twilight and serve her mother-in-law. If Lu Yufei is tired and leaves and leaves three concubines to fulfill her filial piety, what would it say? Lu Yufei lowered his head and resolutely asked Master Tang to give her a chance to express her filial piety to Master Tang. Master Tang smiled, as if helpless, and said, "Well then. Dujuan, clean your hands for Concubine Shizi, Concubine Shizi's hands are valuable and cannot be burned."

"Yes."

After Lu Yufei cleaned up, he walked to the dining table. Zhou Shunhua stood on the other side and nodded to Lu Yufei: "Second concubine, it is not convenient for the concubine to salute you now, please forgive me."

Lu Yufei snorted, the hostility in his eyes almost turned into substance.

Four beautiful and charming officials gathered around Teacher Tang to serve. Two of them were born in the princes and princes, and the other two were born in the scholarly family. However, they are now at the side of Master Tang, all like maids, carefully giving them to Master Tang. Pick up vegetables, serve tea, and pass the kerchief. Master Tang didn’t need to do it herself at all. It didn’t need to say which dish her eyes fell on. Zhou Shunhua would just pick it up for her. If she was thirsty or tired, with a little detail on her face, Ren Yujun or Ji Xinxian could deliver it accurately. Tea soup.

Master Tang sighed, this is the usual treatment for the queen mother. Sure enough, the rich and the right are great, and the happiness of the rich cannot be imagined at all.

Caught between three women who had practiced eyesight in the court, Lu Yufei was unable to give up face, and secondly, he would not wait for others. Standing at the table, he was repeatedly robbed and had no chance to intervene. Lu Yufei was robbed by Zhou Shunhua several times after picking up vegetables, and his face gradually became hard to look.

Master Tang was in a happy mood. She even ate a small bowl of more rice. She raised her hand to signal that she was fine. Du Juan brought the copper basin, Master Tang washed his hands, and as soon as he reached out, Zhou Shunhua half-kneeled on the ground, wrapped Master Tang's fingers with a white cotton pad and wiped it carefully.

Not to mention a few other people, even Master Tang himself felt too delicate. When did she become someone who wiped her hands and had to do it for others? Zhou Shunhua can achieve this level. This woman's patience and temperament are really terrifying. No wonder she survived the four dynasties and seven emperors in the future and became the final winner.

After the meal, Master Tang got up lazily and went outside to digest. Lu Yufei's four people followed her step by step. Master Tang was rarely interested and went to see the autumn scenery in the garden. Now it is late autumn, the garden is withered badly, the leaves are turned deep red by the frost, and the yellow leaves are like a carpet on the ground, and they make a sound when they step on it.

Master Tang traveled with four wives and countless maids, and the battles were like the Queen Mother's southern tour. Master Tang walked along the corridor, a gust of wind blew, and the leaves fell rustling, like a golden rain. A leaf fell on the sleeve of Master Tang. She took the fallen leaf away and looked back, and saw a group of women with beautifully dressed and beautiful faces standing still among the fallen leaves, beautiful like a picture scroll.

Master Tang smiled and said, "It's great that our wives and concubines are full and harmonious."

Seeing that Tang Shishi was in high spirits, the maids said, "Wang Hao, now it's just the concubine and a few beauties who are waiting for you. When the young master is added to the mansion next year, it will be even more lively."

Master Tang gently stroked his lower abdomen, smiling without saying a word. Lu Yufei saw Master Tang's smile, which was really dazzling.

It doesn't hurt to speak while standing, and Master Tang feels that his wives and concubines are full of harmony, so why doesn't she arrange a concubine room for King Jing? Teacher Tang asked Lu Yufei to be virtuous and kept giving Lu Yufei a concubine, but he finally sent away all the beauties sent by the Queen Mother, and even the pretty girl in Yan'an Academy was also dismissed. Master Tang couldn't tolerate a concubine, and the yelling of persuading his daughter-in-law to virtuous was loud, and Lu Yufei was itchy with hatred.

Master Tang turned around in the garden, his muscles and bones moved, and his mood broadened. She happily returned to Yan'an Yard. At this moment, many people outside Yan’an Yard were looking at the side door, and when they saw her back, they rushed up: "Slave to the princess please peace. Princess, you can count as coming back. The women in charge are waiting for you. Suggestions."
