But She’s So Charming - Chapter 19
The next morning, Tang Wu was awakened by coughing. She half-sit up, and suddenly thought of something, she stretched out her hand to touch the place next to her.
cold.
Seeing her getting up, Shuang’er quickly put a pillow behind Tang Wu and said, “Madam, let’s lean, the medicine will be ready immediately.”
“Where is your Royal Highness? When did he leave?” Tang Wu asked hurriedly.
“After Madam fell asleep, Your Highness left.” Shuang’er said.
After hearing this, Tang Wu felt uncomfortable after all. She thought he would stop here, but she didn’t expect him to go back again.
After drinking the medicine, Shuang’er came over to dress Tang Wu. She picked up a blue jade hairpin and placed it in front of the bronze mirror. While comparing it, she said: “Your Royal Highness is really good to the madam. I was sick yesterday because of my wife’s illness. , Your Royal Highness actually came here three times. We like Tongyuan. If this is known to other courtyards, I might be envious of it.”
Tang Wu knows that he treats her well, but the more so, the more disturbed her heart is…
After Tang Wu finished breakfast, she heard Luoying tell her that the princess was coming.
She frowned, wondering what the princess meant at this time. Had no choice but to go out to greet her and salute the princess in a proper manner.
Anru’er smiled and whispered softly: “My sister is sick now, so you don’t need to give this gift.”
Anjou’s smile is not the same as before, and the smile on her face is not mixed with any falsehood. It stands to reason that if she had heard the actions of His Royal Highness yesterday, even if she hadn’t put her anger on her face, she wouldn’t have been so pleased.
But the reason why Anru’er can completely change her face is because of a word from King Ying.
An Ru’er got up early in the morning and went to Sui’antang, thinking about where to go to King Ying to please and take a look at his mouth, so she deliberately mentioned the matter of Sheng Tang Wu as a side concubine, but she only said half of it. Interrupted her, saying that this matter need not be mentioned again.
Even though Tang Wu was not an official lady, she was indeed not qualified to be promoted to a side concubine. But who is King Ying? His position in the entire Dayan can be said to be less than 10,000 people. If he really wants to pet a citizen’s daughter, who would dare to be beaked?
However, the four words “no need to mention” are interesting.
Anru’er looked at Tang Wu up and down, and couldn’t help feeling at ease in her heart. No matter how beautiful she was, it was just a new plaything for the time being.
Since she got the words of His Royal Highness, it means that if she wants to make use of Tang Wu in the future, she doesn’t need to care about it anymore.
After they were seated, Anru’er took the tea from Luo Ying.
She lifted the lid of the cup slightly with her white fingers, blew her breath, and took a sip: “My sister is weak and caught in the wind. Today I specially brought you some good ginseng. I hope you will get better soon. .”
After Anru’s said this, Pei’er handed the two boxes of ginseng to Luoying’s hands.
Tang Wu hurriedly got up and said, “Thank you for your concubine’s concern. The concubine’s illness is okay. I guess it will be fine after a few days.”
Anruer pointed her finger at Xiaozi on the side, and said to her: “I told you not to be offended and sit down quickly.”
She greeted Luo Ying to replace Tang Wu’s tea, and said that she shouldn’t drink these teas if she was ill, and that she should drink more warm water. Between the words, she looked like a mistress.
“It will be the Midyear Festival in a few days, and your Highness is also about to go to the expedition. Three days later, I am going to Longhua Temple to pray for blessings. Then you will be with me, and by the way, I can beg an heir for you.” Anru’er smiled.
Set off…
Child…
She never heard him say it.
Anruer saw her panic, and she couldn’t help but curl her lips and continue: “Recently, the Yu State sent troops to attack Yizhou, but the intention is for Zhongxu Pass. Zhongxu Pass is our important place for Dayan, and soon your Highness. So she will set off in person, and go to Longhua Temple this time. Naturally, it is mainly to pray for His Royal Highness.” Anru’er knew of such a major event. Tang Wu, as a concubine’s room, could not know about it. She said so in detail that she was beating her identity.
Then, Anruer put her hand on her lower abdomen again, pretending to say: “I am in a bad shape. I have been cold before. Doctor Lu said that if I want an offspring, I have to wait a few more days, but I am impatient. …Thinking that His Highness has always loved my sister, so I thought it’s better to let my sister share the worries for her sister.
At this time, Tang Wu understood the meaning.
The princess’s piety and rhetoric was nothing more than a tool that could serve her and be fertile. His Royal Highness did not go to her room, on the contrary, it was because she was not in good health.
Tang Wu put the cup on the table, and his heart could not help getting up and down. After a long time, she knelt down and said: “The concubine’s identity is really unsuitable to give birth to the eldest son of her Highness, nor dare to have such a delusion. The concubine only hopes that the princess’s body will be healed soon.”
At this time Anru’er got up, stepped forward to help Tang Wu’s body and said: “I know you are a sensible, so I will tell you about this. Of course, I also love you from the heart. Today, I do it for you. My Royal Highness raised the issue of your promotion to the side concubine, thinking that in the future, if you have an heir, you can stay by your side to raise it, but… Your Royal Highness did not allow me to mention it…”
While talking, An Ru’er sighed again: “But don’t worry, sister, my sister won’t tell you to give in vain. The future will be long in the future. When you give birth, my sister will never let others pass my sister. .”
Tang Wu’s scalp felt a little numb.
The princess is not the shrews in the market. Those people who want to make use of the concubine’s room are either hands-on or insulting. That kind of nonchalant behavior is tantamount to surrendering to someone like the princess.
She just said her elder sister and her younger sister, revealing her and her identity.
In just a few words, she turned his petting into a taste.
Anruer comforted Tang Wu again, and then walked out of Xitongyuan slowly.
Tang Wu lowered his eyes and took a few breaths.
She has never really thought of the identity of the side concubine. The princess presumably didn’t know her origin, she just thought she was an ordinary girl, but she knew that the position of the side concubine was going to be a royal jade plate, which was beyond her reach no matter how long she worked hard.
Tang Wu suddenly understood why Gu Jiuniang and Yuniang kept talking about these internal affairs. When she was a girl, she only found it annoying to hear too much. Only when she really stood in this yard did she know how difficult it is to keep the four words in this high gate compound.
There are wolves in front and tigers behind, and there is still an abyss underneath.
She sank weakly on the tart.
It’s been a long time to return to God.
—
On the eve of Zhongyuan Festival, Tang Wu and Anru’er rode in the same carriage to go to Longen Temple to burn incense and worship Buddha.
Since that day, Anru’er has taken special care of Tang Wu. Even the cushions on the carriage were placed for Tang Wu, saying that she was afraid that she would catch a cold.
Tang Wu was not afraid that she would deal with herself clearly, she had suffered too much, and there was nothing she couldn’t cope with. But the princess protected her in this way and treated her well, which really made her a little unbearable.
Tang Wu wore a drapery hat that hung down to his neck, and was draped in a blue cloak. From beginning to end, he was well-mannered, and he didn’t dare to be a bit more orderly.
Madam Wang told her that many people go to Longhua Temple to offer incense on the Mid-Year Festival. Those who can offer incense are all people with faces in the capital. If you want her to remember that going out, it will represent the face of Prince Ying. Do not do anything that does not comply with the rules.
The princess got out of the carriage first, followed by Tang Wu.
Tang Wu was dumbfounded when he came down.
The carriages in the capital are also a status symbol. They are wide, narrow, and tall, and made of materials. You can see the difference at a glance. As soon as the carriage of the Ying Palace arrived, many people over there began to whisper.
“Sister!” It was Wu’an Hou’s grandson Nianqi who spoke. He was only thirteen years old, of low stature, and his eyes were particularly bright.
“Hey, isn’t this Nianqi? Where’s your mother?” Anru’er took her hand affectionately and asked warmly. Sun Nianqi is a few years younger than her, but because Wu’anhou and Cheng Guogong are close, they have known each other since they were young and they have handed in handkerchiefs.
“My mother has already gone in… Oh, who is she and how come with Sister An?” Sun Nianqi pointed to Tang Wu behind Anru’er.
Before Anru’er spoke, Peer said, “This is Aunt Tang from our house. The girl has never seen her.”
Speaking of her aunt, this noble lady has always sneered at her, especially the Wu’anhou family.
Wu’anhou once doted his concubine and annihilated his wife to the point of making the whole capital laugh. He even carried his wife to a woman from a lowly background. Mrs. Wu’anhou couldn’t raise her head at all when she was in the capital in those years, except for the Cheng family. Call her when you are doing affair and fun. People will mutter when they see her.
Until the woman died of illness, Wu’an Houfu stood up.
So when it comes to the degree of rejection of his aunt, the Wuanhou family is the first.
