The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

Chapter 476 Pingyang’s kindness

Author: Que Nanzhi

Murong Yi was a kind-hearted person. After listening to his father's teachings, the resentment he had for Qingluan dissipated. After saying goodbye to his parents, he returned to his palace.

Murong Yi entered the gate and saw his three concubines and a pair of children in the courtyard. When they saw Murong Yi, they all greeted him in a polite manner, except for Murong Yi's youngest daughter, Sister Bi.

He ran over and complained to her with his little mouth pouting: "Dad, my concubines and I came to pay our respects to the princess. She has kept us waiting outside for a long time, but she just refuses to see her."

As she said that, the little girl couldn't help complaining: "Isn't she just a princess? What's so great about her? She has such a big air."

Murong Yi picked up her daughter lovingly and coaxed softly: "She is daddy's bride, you should call her mother."

Sister Bi said disdainfully: "How can there be such a mother who lets her child wait outside and refuses to see her? She is not my mother."

Murong Yi patiently persuaded his daughter: "Your mother has just come to the palace. She is just feeling unwell today, so she made you wait outside for so long."

After saying that, he handed his daughter over to Pang, who was also waiting outside the palace, and said to several concubines: "It's almost noon, it's hot outside, and the princess is feeling unwell today, so I'll leave her there for now. You guys?"

Let’s go back with my brother and sister first.”

The three of them took the order and left with their two children.

After Murong Yi watched his concubine and the child leave, he walked into the main hall and saw Qingluan leaning on the couch boredly and playing with a pair of jade beads. Murong Yi stepped forward and asked: "Just now, did I have several side rooms and a pair of jade beads?"

Your children have come to greet you, why don’t you see them?”

Qingluan raised his eyes and glanced at Murong Yi, then replied with a wooden face: "There are quite a few women in your room?"

Murong Yi heard the jealousy in these words. He pulled out a chair and sat down in front of Qingluan. He explained patiently: "Pang and the others are from the Jiangdong noble family. I accept them as just the father and mother of the king."

Arrangements are made to balance the forces of all parties."

From the emperor to the powerful, political marriage is a common thing.

Murong Yi was not a womanizer. Apart from taking in these three girls from aristocratic families due to political needs and following his parents' arrangements, there were no beauties such as singers and dancers in his house.

Murong Yi thought that Qingluan would understand him when he explained like this. Unexpectedly, after hearing this, Qingluan sneered and said: "No matter what your purpose is, since you have accepted so many women, it means that you are not a professional."

Lover."

Murong Yi was stunned when he heard this. He calmed down and replied to Qingluan: "If you don't like it, I won't go to their room in the future. But they are all daughters of rich families. Jiangdong's stability cannot be separated from these noble families.

We will treat them with courtesy, that’s all.”

Qingluan raised his eyes and glanced at Murong Yi, and said with a sneer: "I am your real wife. These concubines of yours are dangling in front of my eyes every day. Have you ever considered my feelings?"

She stared at Murong Yi and said word by word: "If you really want to show sincerity, then drive them all out of the palace."

Murong Yi really wanted to get along well with his new wife. Although he did not expect her to be as harmonious and loving as his late wife, he should at least respect each other.

Although Murong Yi is well-educated, it does not mean that he has no bottom line and no temper.

When he saw that Qingluan was so unrestrained, Murong Yi exhaled slightly and said in a deep voice: "With all due respect, I will definitely not be able to fulfill the princess's request."

After saying that, Murong Yi glanced at Qingluan solemnly and walked away.

After finishing Li Yu's marriage and successfully sending Qing Luan off to marry, Ping Yang, the mistress of the princess's palace, stopped worrying about the big things and could finally relax.

On this day, she ordered people to take out some clothing materials and daily necessities from her warehouse, and told Yuzhu: "You can take people to send these things to your cousin. I heard that your Majesty intends to let her go to the north in a while."

As for Xinjiang, it gets cold there early. Instruct the two servant girls who serve my cousin to make these materials into cotton-padded clothes and thick quilts for my cousin to wear when he goes north."

After Yuzhu took the order and left, Li Xiang, who was just inside, walked out with a cold face and said calmly to Pingyang: "You are quite nice to that person named Pei!"

Pingyang took care of Pei Yunqian at the request of her parents. Pingyang never concealed anything from Li Xiang. Just like this time she ordered Yuzhu to deliver something to Pei Yunqian. She knew Li Xiang was at home and had no intention of going behind his back.

Seeing that there was something wrong in Li Xiang's words, Pingyang looked at him and replied frankly: "My cousin and I are just brother and sister, don't think too much about it."

Pingyang's words were not against her will. Except when she went to Beijing with her grandmother and mother to congratulate her and fell in love with Li Xiang at first sight at the imperial aunt's princess palace when she was fifteen years old, Pingyang has not expressed any love for anyone else even though their husband and wife have separated now.

The man had other ideas.

As for Pei Yunqian, she just regards him as a relative of her mother's family.

Li Xiang replied with a stern face: "Although you are magnanimous in your heart, the person named Pei may not be so."

Pingyang glanced at Li Xiang and replied: "I don't know what others think. I just have a clear conscience."

With that said, she left Li Xiang behind and left the main room.

Sister Qing and Sister Wan were feeding and playing with the little hare given by Pei Yunqian in the yard. Sister Mei stood aside and watched timidly. She opened her eyes curiously and looked at the little rabbit, but she did not dare to act like Sister Wan and Sister Wan.

Sister Qing stepped forward and played with her.

Pingyang was kind-hearted after all. She saw that the child was pitiful and couldn't bear to say: "Sister Mei, if you like, just follow the sisters and feed the little rabbits."

Over the years, although Pingyang resented Li Xiang in her heart, she had never angered the innocent sister Mei. Because of the grudges between adults, she could not do it and let Pingyang abuse a weak child.

this.

Because her aunt never looked down on her, the young sister Mei also had good intentions towards Pingyang. She looked at Pingyang and complained aggrievedly: "Mother, my sisters don't let me get close to the little rabbit."

As the eldest child in Pingyang, Sister Qing has always been sensitive. The fact that children can feel the discord between their parents seems to have something to do with Sister Mei, a concubine. Therefore, Sister Qing has always disliked Sister Mei.

When Sister Qing saw Sister Mei complaining, she said angrily: "This little rabbit was given to us by my cousin's uncle. If you want to play with it, go find your own uncle."

Sister Mei cried aggrievedly after hearing this: "I don't have an uncle. Where can I go to find my uncle?"

Pingyang couldn't bear to see the child being wronged, so she quickly pulled Sister Mei over and coaxed her for a while, then she taught Sister Qing: "Sister Qing, you are a sister, you must know how to love and care for your sister."

Sister Qing pouted and replied: "Sister Wan is my sister, and this sister is not my mother's biological child. Why should I love and protect her?"
