But She’s So Charming - Chapter 23
“My grandmother promised An Lan to be my side concubine?” Wang Ying held his forehead, he felt his temples jump suddenly.
Seeing that King Ying had already picked up the words, the old lady simply said directly: “That child, you are the only one in my heart. I have also scolded her, punished her, and told her not to be wishful thinking anymore! But after all, she has been growing up since she was a child. Raised by my side, she wants to be an old girl for a lifetime in Anjia…How can I be willing to do that!”
As she spoke, Mrs. An’s eyes were red.
“The fact that my grandmother sent An Lan to me as a concubine is not correct. She is a concubine of An Guo Gongfu. She has understood the distinction of concubine since she was a child. Grandma thinks that she can live the life of serving the mistress. “” King Ying said.
Aristocratic concubine is not a concubine, and it can be regarded as the first criterion for the eldest wife to choose a son-in-law.
Even if his royal palace is more honorable and decent than the nearby place, the side concubine is the side concubine. Once he passes the door, he has to live in the concubine’s house, and he will give birth to heirs in the future, only with the word concubine.
Speaking of this, how could Mrs. An not understand what he meant.
But how could she not tell Sister Lan about the same thing? But that child is a stubborn ass, knowing to anger her old lady!
Mrs. An is very old, and her hands will tremble as long as she gets angry.
“His Royal Highness… can you tell Sister Lan a few words for me? She always listens to what you say.” Mrs. An sighed.
King Ying smiled and replied: “Grandma, don’t worry, when I come back from the Zhongxu Pass, I will definitely pick An Lan for a marriage.”
The old lady took his hand and said with a bit of choking: “Why am I getting old and old, but I have started to do some silly things, knowing that you are about to fight, I even bother you with these trivial things. It’s really confused and confused. .”
“The banquet feels that my grandmother is not confused, it is clearly eccentric.” After speaking, King Ying met the suspicious eyes of Mrs. Shang An and couldn’t help laughing in a low voice: “My grandmother is willing to take An Lan to my side. Concubine, isn’t this eccentric?”
Hearing this, the old lady couldn’t help but lift her eyebrows and spit out a laugh.
After a while, the old lady’s hand slowly stroked King Ying’s eyebrows, rubbing his outline, and then said word by word: “You and her are the most alike.”
In this sentence, she refers to Queen Ann.
When Queen Ann was young, she was the wisest child in the Anguo government. It was precisely because of this that the old Anguo chose her to enter the palace.
At that time, Mrs. An refused to agree, so she privately taught Queen An how to roll around and how to cry.
But in the end, she chose to sacrifice herself to make the whole settlement…
Recognizing his fate to live all his life, in the end, it ended up so badly.
King Ying knew that the queen mother to Mrs. An was like a scar that would never heal. Every time he remembered it, it would be unbearable. She can love An Lan so much only because of An Lan’s appearance, one-third of them resemble a mother’s queen.
Thinking of this, Ying Wangwu shook his head.
Based on this alone, it was impossible for him to take An Lan into the mansion.
——
Three days later, King Ying was ready to take Yu Zhen and a group of cavalry to Baixidi before Zhongxu Pass. Before leaving, the princess and others also went out to see them off.
King Ying was riding on the horse, his expression was unusually calm, his eyes were looking into the distance, thinking about the battle in his previous life.
In the previous life, he was the commander of Yang Pi.
Yang Pi is a veteran of the central government, not to mention the use of soldiers like a god, it can be considered brave and good at fighting. Unexpectedly, the Emperor Yu was divided into two troops and led the battlefield to the river. General Dayan was not good at water battles, and there were ambushes in the river. As soon as he confronted, he was forced to retreat steadily.
In the end, not only Zhongxu Pass was lost, but Yang Pi and the 10,000 elite soldiers were also buried in Baixidi.
In this life, if he doesn’t want to see the horror of corpses all over again, then this battle will have to fight with all his life.
King Ying clamped the horse’s belly, tightened the reins, turned around and headed out of Beijing.
At the moment when he closed his eyes, he turned his head and glanced at her.
She was on the far left, wearing a turquoise jacket, standing there with low eyebrows, her expression a little haggard, and her lips a little pale. Suddenly, the sound of her cry last night appeared in his ear again.
In the end, he was still cruel…
The corners of King Ying’s lips twitched slightly, and he silently accepted the words she had begged him last night.
“His Royal Highness be lighter, and then be lighter, okay?”
——
As soon as King Ying left and the gate of the palace closed, Anru’er’s anger became a little uncontrollable.
Just now she said so many sentimental things and didn’t see him Ruding smile, but Hu Meizi’s somewhat unstable posture made him look a little bit more concerned.
It’s really a fox that has become a spirit.
Anru’er counted the days. As soon as three months arrived, Concubine Chu released her forefoot, and she went to Anshan Hall on the back foot.
She has to figure out how, during the period when she did not return to the palace, this was such a good concubine, how could she be banned…
Concubine Chu chuckled, “The princess does not have to greet me in circles, I know that the princess is here for her.”
Anruer glanced at her with more interest and said, “Who does the younger sister think it is for?”
“Although I haven’t taken a step out of the yard in the past three months, I have probably guessed a little bit when the servants in this yard come and go. Your Majesty, I should have taken her off from her low status long ago.” , Chu side concubine smiled, and then continued: “Yes, she can plant love for an immortal highness, naturally she is powerful.”
Anruer’s “Hanji” was joined by the word, and her heart was shocked. But still calmly took the cup, put it under his nose and smelled it, and then whispered: “What kind of shame.”
Concubine Chu shook her head and sighed: “It turns out that my elder sister was really kept in the dark by His Highness.”
Seeing the patience of the princess, Concubine Chu smiled and said directly: “Sister Yongyang Street knows, there is a row of red lanterns in that alley, the largest of which is called Jun Meng Yuan. Aunt Tang from the mansion is the number one card there!”
As soon as this was said, the cup in Anju’er’s hand fell to the ground with a “bang”…
By the time Anjoul returned to the bright moon, it was already evening. She sat in the square chair and fell into silence for a long time.
Flower Street Willow Lane? Top card?
She thought, this is really interesting.
That day she saw Tang Wu being recognized in Jinyulou, and she felt weird. She only thought that if she was the concubine selected by her Majesty from Suzhou, she should not be called by a capital treasurer to be a sister…
But she wanted to break the sky, but she couldn’t think of it, she actually came out of the flower house! Since she was a child, she heard from her mother that most of the pickling things in the house came from there, but she never thought that it would be her turn.
Mother Anjuerla landed and said: “Mother, your Highness is absurd! Now that the world is in chaos, how can he turn a woman of unknown origin into the person next to her pillow! What’s more…she actually came from that kind of thing. place!”
“Even if she is the first card that has not taken a guest! How can it be clean from that kind of place! Mother, when I think of serving your Royal Highness under the same roof with her, I panic in my heart! I just want to I sold it to her immediately!”
Mother Lu said: “The princess must not say such an angry thing. His Royal Highness is willing to completely block the news for her and even fabricate her identity. Then she can’t deal with it at will, otherwise the princess will end up hurting her husband and wife by doing so. Affectionate.”
“Then mother said what should I do?” Anruer said nonchalantly.
“It depends on the old slave, so it’s better to think about it in another direction. If Aunt Tang is really an innocent concubine, where can the princess go to find her fault? On the contrary, her background makes things easier. Like what the princess said just now, it’s impossible for a woman from such a place to be clean! The princess might as well spend more money and ask the people on the rivers and lakes to investigate Junmengyuan. If you can find out something. , Do not worry about acting without handle.”
“If you can completely drive her away, it would be nothing to spend more money! Madam, even if you take my private money, quickly find a clean spy. I heard that the Zhongxuguan side has been hit, this War, your Highness will return to Beijing in a short time. I want to deal with her before your Highness returns.”
