The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 258 Giving Li Ling a Woman

The news of Jingshu's pregnancy spread throughout the aristocratic circles of the capital within a few days.

Not only did she become the mistress of the Duke's palace, she was married to Li Ling for so many years, and her husband treated her wholeheartedly. There were not many concubines in the house of a powerful person, but she could monopolize her husband's favor.

.

All the good things in the world go to Jingshu.

Originally, when they learned that she was unable to get pregnant, those noble ladies who were filled with sour stomachs still wanted to see the jokes she would make in the future. Unfortunately, within a few days, she became pregnant again.

Most people can't see others being nice. How can Jingshu not be jealous when she's in such a situation?

Jingshu's good fortune not only made the noble ladies of the aristocratic family jealous, but also many noble ladies in the palace were so stunned after hearing the news that they could not eat or sleep well.

The ninth princess, Qingluan, had been thinking about Jingshu's infertility all day long, and was looking for an opportunity to ask the emperor to decree that she be Li Lingping's wife. Suddenly, when she heard that Jingshu was pregnant, the ninth princess was overly frightened, and all of a sudden

Passed out.

There is also Zhou Qing from the East Palace. Empress Cao originally wanted to execute her because she offended Li Ling and his wife last time in the princess palace, but because Prince Zhao Bi wanted to save face and had an argument with Cao Hou, she saved her life, but was demoted.

She became the lowest-level Cai Nv. Last time Li Ling penetrated one of her feet with a sword in public, Zhou Qing hated Li Ling and his wife. When she heard about this, she was so angry that her feet hurt.

Li Ling regained the five cities and made great contributions. Now he is a popular figure in the Qi Dynasty. As the saying goes, a husband is noble and his wife is honored. With such a powerful husband to protect him, there is no choice but to let these people be jealous or resentful.

To vent their emotions behind their backs, they could only flatter Jingshu and never dare to offend her again.

There was only one person who couldn't swallow this breath no matter what, and that was Concubine Meng.

The rewards Li Ling received for his meritorious service were always given to his wife.

Li Xian and Xu Wanning were both stunned when they heard this. Xu Wanning frowned and asked, "You are so old and dishonest, and I haven't made any meritorious deeds. How can I get a reward?"

When the mother-in-law left in response, Li Xian quickly stood up and pulled his wife over to coax her: "I promised you that I will never accept another woman. Not to mention a palace concubine, even if the Nine Heavens Xuannv sent it to me, I, Li Xian, also have my eyelids."

Not even flirting."

After hearing this, Li Ling stopped. He frowned slightly and said calmly: "There is no need to leave this to Madam. Let Butler Fu take care of the arrangement."

Li Xian stood on the corridor with his hands behind his hands, glanced at the girl, and asked, "What's your name?"

Since his wife became pregnant, Li Ling tried his best to return home as early as possible.

"It's a good name."

A shrewd and sensible woman like Concubine Meng would not openly offend the Zhenguo Government. Secretly and quietly adding gambling to people she hates is her best method.

Li Xian waved his hand towards his mother-in-law: "You just want the person in charge to wait."

"I'm going to order someone to send her out right now." After saying that, Li Xian stood up, strode open the door and walked out.

Li Ling just said "hmm" and strode towards Qingfeng Garden. Ling Xiao followed closely behind and said hesitantly: "Your Majesty, in addition to gold, silver, jewelry, jade and antiques, the palace also rewarded two concubines this time.

"

The mother-in-law replied: "Today, the palace came to deliver the reward from the Crown Prince. There were two concubines in the palace. The steward said that it was clearly marked on the reward list that one of them was awarded to us."

After hearing Ling Xiao's words, Li Ling replied: "Then just give her to Madam along with those treasures."

After Li Ling successfully regained the five cities, he was promoted to a rank. He is now a first-grade hussar general. Among military generals, his status is second only to the veteran general Zhou Yi.

Li Ling's official position was bound to be promoted after his meritorious service, but there would also be no shortage of rewards such as gold, silver, and jewelry. Now that the meritorious officials who had recovered the five cities had all been awarded, the rewards would naturally come down according to grade.

Ling Xiao replied: "There are many rewards this time. Madam ordered the housekeeper to count them."

This is the woman who was gifted to Li Ling by the Holy Emperor. It would be best if Li Ling or Jing Shu takes care of her. How can Housekeeper Fu do it for her?

Li Ling nodded slightly and said, "Madam, have you read it all?"

In Xiyuan Bitang Juli, Li Xian and Xu Wanning are having dinner.

After hearing this, Ling Xiao knew that his master had not heard him clearly. He cleared his throat and raised his voice appropriately: "Of the two concubines rewarded by the palace, one of them is marked on the reward list for the uncle.

One is for you."

"If I say I won't accept it, I won't accept it. A gentleman's words are hard to follow. How could I, Li Xian, break my trust with you?"

After Xu Wanning heard what Li Xian said, she snorted coldly: "If you like her, just keep her alive. If she is a peaceful person, just put her in the yard next to Aunt Ping."

The mother-in-law came in and replied: "Sir, madam, the steward came here to say that the palace has rewarded a concubine."

Xu Wanning's face immediately turned cold, and he turned to glance at Li Xian: "Since it is given to you, you can just settle her yourself. I don't care."

Ling Xiao knew that his master was not a womanizer, so he implicitly reminded him: "Sir, the concubine given to you is the best at music, and the wife is also very happy. Why don't you give her to the wife to take care of her."

The steward was waiting in the courtyard with the concubine who had been rewarded. When he saw Li Xian coming out, the steward hurriedly stepped forward and said, "Sir, this is the concubine who was rewarded by the palace. Please take a look at it."

When Li Ling returned, he saw that his pregnant wife was very happy. After listening to Ling Xiao's words vaguely, he replied: "After counting all the rewards, I will give them to Madam."

She is just a palace concubine. In Li Ling's heart, she is just like gold, silver and jewelry, and is not worthy of his attention.

On this day, when he just entered the palace gate, he saw bright red wedding silk hanging at the door. Li Ling walked into the palace gate and threw the horse rein to his attendant Ling Xiao, and asked casually: "Have you received the reward from the palace today?"

Ever since the eighth princess was blinded by a peck, she was sometimes sober and sometimes crazy. Seeing that her beloved daughter Baiyi was not getting better, Concubine Meng began to harbor hatred towards the third girl of the Zhenguo Palace and Jingshu who had indirectly caused her daughter to suffer this condition.

The palace concubine slowly stepped forward, with her head half bowed, and gave Li Xian a slight smile: "The slave family is good at singing, and their name is Qing Ge."

Ling Xiao replied with a smile on his face: "A whole cart full of good things came down this afternoon."

When the palace concubine who called Qing Ge learned that she was going to be sent to the Duke of Zhenguo, she paid close attention to find out that the future master was a scholar who knew how to love women and cherish jade. Since ancient times, scholars loved romance and loved to sing and dance. She was originally a thief.

She was sure to be favored, but she didn't expect that she would be sent to Zhuangzi as soon as she took a photo of her.

Li Xian murmured to himself, then raised his voice and told the steward: "Let's move Miss Qingge to Longzhuang in the suburbs. The mountains and rivers there are beautiful, and it is a suitable place for singing."

Then what chance does she have of getting ahead?

"Master Li, I'm a slave." How could Qingge be willing to accept this? But before she could open her mouth to beg, Li Xian had already turned around and entered the house.
