Beloved at the Door - v2 Chapter 5
“Grandma Ran’s words also make sense, since it is Yin’er’s plea, it’s hard for me as a mother to refuse him, so let her be Yin’er’s concubine.”
Liangdi? Shangguan Yan was startled at first, and then couldn’t help but chuckle. Her reaction stunned An Fei and Grandma Ran.
Grandma Ran scolded loudly. “Bold! What are you laughing at? Niang Niang is kind, letting you be a good lady of the Nine Highness, you don’t know how to be grateful, but you still dare to laugh?!”
Shangguan Yan hurriedly stopped laughing. Just now, she accidentally thought of the little junior sister Bai Yuxiao. At the beginning, the junior sister volunteered to be a concubine. When she married into the mausoleum palace, she was a good wife. Now An concubine also has to make her a good wife. This coincidence makes her a concubine. She suddenly felt funny.
She raised her head to look at Concubine An on the seat. It was only then that she could see Concubine An’s face. She was indeed a beautiful and charming beauty. It seemed that the nine princes’ good looks were inherited from her.
“Thank you Niang Niang for your kindness, but the folk girl thinks she is not worthy of the Nine Highness, she dare not climb high.” After speaking, she lowered her head, seemingly humble, but there is no sense of inferiority in her calm demeanor and calmness? It’s not that I dare not climb high, but I don’t want to.
An Fei was angry, and then sneered again. “You think Liangdi’s grade is low, dissatisfied?”
“No, Minnu really feels that she doesn’t even have the qualifications to enter the palace, and she asked her to take her life back. Minnu really doesn’t have this thought.”
Although Shangguan Yan said it sincerely, how could An Fei bear the refusal of a small business girl to be her son’s concubine? It’s one thing for her to be unhappy that her son accepted this woman into the mansion, but it’s another thing to be rejected. What’s more, it’s about the face of the royal family. If she can’t even fulfill her son’s prudent wish, how would her son treat her as a mother ?
Concubine An’s moving voice added a cold warning. “What a arrogant girl, she’s still putting on airs! She’s so courageous! Mother Ran, does she think she has room for rejection? My palace is not discussing with her, I don’t know how high the sky is!”
Mother Ran quickly agreed. “What Niangniang said, but Niangniang is open-minded, so she doesn’t care about her.” She smiled and comforted Niangniang, and when she faced Shangguan Yan, she put on a lesson expression. “The empress is looking at the face of His Highness Nine, and she doesn’t know what you are like, so why don’t you thank you?”
Now if you thank you, there will be no room for change. Even if it will be fined, Shangguan Yan will not be able to respond to it.
“I beg the Concubine An to show her favor, Minnu really doesn’t want to—”
“Presumptuous!” An Fei slapped the table and scolded. She has run out of patience. She told the business girl in a good voice that she didn’t know that she would accept it when she saw it. She didn’t know how to raise her, so she wouldn’t give the other party a bit of hardship. People still don’t take her Anfei’s order to heart! “Mother Ran, pull down and hit the board, teach her the rules!”
“Yes, Niangniang! Come here, take her down!” Madam Ran immediately called two powerful maids, and the two held Shangguan Yan on the left and right, and wanted to pull her out.
Shangguan Yan did not resist, nor begged for mercy, and allowed the maid to pull her out. At this time, Princess Bai Yuxiao of the Mausoleum suddenly came.
It turned out that as soon as Bai Yuxiao received the news from Xilang, she immediately ordered someone to prepare a carriage and enter the palace, and head straight to Lianhua Palace. She was not even allowed to inform the palace ladies. Who knew she walked quickly and saw two palace ladies standing by. When a woman came out, that woman was her great sister, Shangguan Yan, and her face fell instantly.
“Wait! What are you doing with her?”
Seeing the arrival of the Mausoleum Princess, the two court ladies hurriedly greeted her.
“This woman collided with Concubine An, we are going to take her down to play the board.”
Bai Yuxiao didn’t believe that her big sister could be so stupid, and it was okay to anger An Fei. There must be some reason.
“Let her go!”
“Niang…”
“My palace said let go, did she hear it!”
The two palace ladies were not frightened. Although they were frightened by the concubine Mausoleum, they were the palace ladies of An Concubine, and they were also obeyed by their master’s orders.
“Please forgive my mother, the slave and maid also follow orders. If the mother has any objections, please go and talk to our master.”
“Bold!” Bai Yuxiao’s eyes were extremely sharp, and the two court ladies were stunned by her.
At this time An Fei’s voice came, accompanied by footsteps. “Who is making noise in the courtyard of this palace?”
When Bai Yuxiao heard Concubine An’s voice, she first glanced at the elder sister, and whispered: “Don’t worry, elder sister, with me, I will never let her touch you.”
Shangguan Yan said lightly: “Be careful yourself, don’t be impulsive, after all, this is the palace.”
“I see.”
Bai Yuxiao nodded at the master’s sister, glared at the two court ladies, and then gave orders to the two personal servant girls she had brought.
“You stay, stare at them, and don’t be rude to the elder sister.”
“Slaves obey orders.” The two maids are not fuel-efficient lamps. They are both practicing families, and the prince singled out to protect the princess.
Bai Yuxiao turned around and immediately went to An Fei to talk about it. Even if the other party was a concubine, she was not afraid. Who wouldn’t use power to suppress others? If she dares to bully her big sister, she will use her power to press her back. Anyway, she still has the prince as her backer!
As a result, the two noble women quarreled, and An Fei really opened her eyes. This Shangguan Yan not only fascinated her son, but even the Princess Ling also came to help her speak, which aroused An Fei’s stubborn arrogance. Today, even a business girl can’t be cured. Does she still have face when it spreads out? !
Just when Concubine An and Princess Ling were in a stalemate over the matter of Shangguan Yan, Grandpa Lu came with two eunuchs.
Grandpa Lu heard women arguing from a distance, and when he approached, he saw two court ladies fighting a woman, and two other maidservants confronting them.
He swept his old eyes around, and finally stopped on the framed woman, knowing that this woman must be Miss Shangguan Yan.
He looked at the other party, seeing this girl was neither shocked nor stunned, neither humble nor overbearing, and her expression was indifferent, as if she had seen the world, and she was also blessed. He attracted the attention of the emperor only when he entered the palace, and he personally ordered him to lead people. Princess Ling also fought against Concubine An for her, which shows that this girl is not an ordinary person.
When Grandma Ran saw that Grandpa Lu next to the emperor was coming, she hurriedly pulled her master, and at the same time stepped forward to show her good intentions, and asked politely, “Father Lu, why are you here? But the emperor has an order?”
When Concubine An heard that Grandpa Lu was coming, she stopped quarreling with Princess Ling. She walked toward Grandpa Lu and said angrily: “Grandpa Lu, you are here, you come to judge, I will discipline a civilian woman, and Princess Ling actually interfered with me. Here comes the palace!”
Bai Yuxiao heard that the other party was Grand Eunuch Lu Grandpa next to the emperor, and remembered that the prince had said to her that Grand Eunuch Lu Grandpa was valued by the emperor and was a matter of mind, so she did not follow the complaint, but walked to Shangguan Yan. , Pushed away the two obstructive court ladies, circled Shangguan Yan’s arms, and stood with her to watch the changes.
On the fair day of Lu Gong, he treated all the maids or grandmothers in any palace without any pretentious expressions. Even if he saw the imperial concubine, he would at most pay court ceremonies. I saw that his attitude was neither lukewarm nor warm, and he said in a rigorous tone: “The slave is on the order of the emperor. I came here to lead Miss Shangguan Yan to the Imperial Study Room to meet the emperor.”
