But She’s So Charming - Chapter 35
Until the dead of night, even after the footsteps outside completely disappeared, King Ying suddenly said: “Wu’er, be a concubine for me, have you wronged you?”
As soon as the voice fell, Tang Wu’s sleepiness was immediately scared away.
“Why did your Highness say this?” Tang Wu looked at him, always feeling that what he did today is very weird. Whether it is now or just now, the cannibalism is not like him in normal days.
“After this New Year’s Day, how about officially making you a side concubine?” Wang Wang said.
Tang Wu heard this and thought he was dreaming, so he raised his hand in front of his eyes and shook it up and down.
King Ying turned his head to look at the corner of her eyes with a smile, a little startled, “What’s the matter?”
She met his eyes, and whispered softly: “The concubine body is a humble body. I have never thought about the position of the concubine in the palace. It is the favor of God to be the concubine room of the Royal Highness. … Besides, Wu’er’s background is not on the stage after all, how can you embarrass your Royal Highness by entering the royal jade disc?”
It has been more than half a year from the day when she entered the house until now. During this time, she could not only understand some of his preferences in terms of clothing, food, shelter and transportation, but also the matter of bed, but she still had nothing else. Known.
He is of high authority, so how dare she guess his thoughts.
She doesn’t have a mother’s family, and she has no status, not even a good concubine. If she allowed her appetite to grow larger and greedy, would he still treat herself well?
As she finished speaking the last word, the corners of King Ying’s mouth completely froze, and I don’t know when, those words that he thought would be pleasant to the ears, now they listened to them like needle sticks.
Tang Wu looked at him with a deep gaze, fearing that he might mistakenly think that he was eager to welcome or refuse, so he hurriedly kissed him on the chin, “In today’s days, Wu’er is very satisfied.”
The expression in her eyes was like a pool of lake water, clear and transparent, without any impurities.
Perhaps most people in this world heard what she said just now, and they felt that under her skin, there was an extremely hypocritical and extremely greedy soul. But in fact, every word she said was sincere.
Tang Wu feels that a person’s self-knowledge is important, and if he has experienced more, he will know what is true and what is false. What is unattainable in a lifetime, and what is placed in front of us in a down-to-earth manner.
As far as she is concerned, being a favored concubine, living a life without worry is already excellent, and the position of the side concubine that she should not have hoped for will not cause her troubles, and she will be Amitabha.
He looked at her for a long time, inexplicably heartache, he stretched out his hand and took her into his arms, so that her small face was pressed tightly against his chest, and his tone was stiff and said: “I will never allow such presumptuous words. You speak up.”
Tang Wu was startled. She hadn’t recovered yet, so he heard him say again: “From now on, I won’t allow it anymore.”
—
By the New Year’s Day, the house gradually became lively.
It is the highest sense of existence since Anjou’s return to the mansion to sash the door, clean the house, change the door god, wall clock Kui, nail peach charm, and post spring card. Not only did he ran to Sui’antang in two days, he also sews a red official gown for King Ying by himself.
Anru’er even added an example to Xitongyuan to please him. The things assigned to Tang Wu are exactly the same as those assigned to Chu Yan.
She did this for nothing else, just for the family dinner in the palace on New Year’s Eve.
Your Majesty hosted a family banquet in the palace today. Some of the invited dignitaries in the capital will bring their family members with them today. Cheng Guogong’s residence is equivalent to her mother’s home, and Ying’s palace is equivalent to her husband’s home. If she loses her dignity tonight, she I can’t lift my head anymore.
So recently, she has retreated to the next level and didn’t toss Tang Wu. Instead, she was kind to her. She said that the Shu brocade sent by her mother a while ago was generously divided into half of Tang Wu.
It was also this matter that gave Anru’er hope in her heart. Because on the second day after the delivery of the Shu brocade, she found that her complexion looked a little better.
At this moment, Anju’s eyes were smiling, and it took an hour and a half to dress up. Because today is the day when she and His Royal Highness enter the palace together for a banquet, except for her as the princess, the rest are naturally not eligible to participate.
While holding her ears in her ears, she thought: Your Royal Highness just likes that little **** again, that is, he likes it in the mansion. After getting out of this yard, that little **** is not even qualified to stand with her!
When she got on the carriage, Anjuer was a little restless. It is said that she should have picked the most spacious carriage today, but she thought that today’s opportunity was not easy to come by, so she only picked the one that was quite satisfactory, so she was close to him. Some.
How wise King Ying is, she was afraid that he would see through these careful thoughts, so she sat silently beside him on the way.
There is not much space in the carriage, and there is no light yet, so Anjou used the dim light to look at his profile. The more you look, the faster this heart can’t help beating.
He has sword eyebrows and stars, his nose is like a gall, his clothes are well-dressed, and his demeanor is elegant.
Gradually looking down, Anruer couldn’t help but glanced between his legs, perhaps because of the sitting posture, unexpectedly, somewhere in his clothes was raised up, like a…
The next moment, she turned her face away, she was afraid that this blushing heartbeat might be seen by him.
Anru’er clenched her fists and felt ashamed of her a little wet. She is a girl who came out of the Cheng Guogong Mansion. Why does Your Highness want her to be less than twenty years old and start to be a widow…
For some reason, there was a picture of that little bitch’s waist, which was close to him, suddenly appeared in her mind.
Will she be like the picture book her mother gave her, sitting on him and shaking gently, the waist seems to be folded…
Thinking about it, she found that her fingertips were shaking, and she had decades to pass in the rest of her life. It was not that she was jealous, but that she really couldn’t tolerate that concubine’s room.
Without her, His Highness wouldn’t even look at her without even looking at her…
After a while, the sound of horseshoes stopped abruptly, and the coachman opened the curtain and said respectfully: “His Royal Highness, Princess Qi, has arrived.”
Anruer retracted her gaze, took a big breath, and followed him casually.
As soon as he entered the palace, Father Xu bowed himself to invite King Ying to move, saying that his Majesty had been waiting for a long time.
And Anru’er, as Princess Ying, was introduced to Qianyun Palace by two other little eunuchs.
As soon as Anruer arrived at the Palace of Dry Clouds, she saw Princess Wenning.
Princess Wenning is the only daughter in the princess’s house, and has never dealt with her. The capital is full of people who tend to be inferior to the flames, and now she is not favored in Prince Ying’s Mansion. Those who had good handkerchiefs with her back then have long since turned to the head of Wenning County.
“Oh, isn’t this sister Anjia?” Just now, she saw Princess Wenning deliberately sarcasm. She said this to remind her that she was not surnamed Cheng, but An.
“Look at my memory, I forgot that my elder sister was Princess Ying, and Princess Ying’an.” After that, Wen Ning added another sentence.
“Princess Wenning An.” If she was favored, she would definitely not swallow this breath, let alone let the identity of Princess Ying suffer her ridicule. However, King Ying is not even a respectable guest to her. If she causes trouble on such a day, I am afraid that there will be no one who is facing her.
The distribution of the noble ladies in the capital is very obvious, like the princess Wenning, those with royal blood, and the noble ladies of the aristocratic family are on their own.
On the other hand, they are the daughters of the upstarts of the DPRK and China. They do not have deep roots in the capital, but because they are loved by His Majesty, this kind of banquet can naturally come. In twos and threes, they are also together with the same identity. Play.
Only like Anjou, it is a special case.
She was unable to truly integrate into the circle of aristocratic families, and she was unwilling to commit herself to dealing with women who came from poor families.
So in the past, she only snuggled up next to Mrs. Cheng Guogong.
But now she is married, and her relationship with the Cheng family is a bit stiff, so she can’t be the same as before.
It was an embarrassing moment, An Ruer saw Cheng Yu at a glance.
“Princess Wenning, I have something to discuss with Brother Yu, so I’ll be out of company first.” After that, she turned and walked towards Cheng Yu.
Before she left far, she heard Princess Wenning say to the little sister on the side: “It’s so funny, she is so diligent, and I don’t know that she and Brother Yu are relatives! That’s the body of the Cheng family sister. Why is it not good? Another day I will send two more ginseng to the Cheng family sister! If she doesn’t recover, wouldn’t it be that a pheasant ruined the Cheng family’s reputation!”
Anruer walked forward as if she hadn’t heard her, then Princess Wenning couldn’t provoke her, and she couldn’t hide it! She is so arrogant and self-willed, 80% of her life will never get married!
“Brother Yu, where’s auntie, why aren’t they here?”
When Cheng Yu saw Anru’er, he couldn’t help but curl his eyebrows to say something to his heart. Since her cousin took her grandfather’s jade token to force His Royal Highness to marry her, he has become more reluctant to talk to her.
Even, some hate her.
It’s not good for Cheng An to be small, even her ears can’t hear noise. The Cheng family still felt that Doctor Liao was selfish and wanted to use Cheng An to get some benefits, but they saw people’s hearts over time. If there was no Doctor Liao in these years, Cheng An would have been gone.
I remember that one winter, Doctor Liao sent someone to send a letter saying that Cheng An was ill, but at that time Anru’er dragged her mother to the temple fair, and Cheng Yu went there alone before she could tell.
When he arrived, Cheng An was lying on the bed without a trace of blood on his face.
She whispered to him: “Brother, where’s mother?”
He didn’t blame Anjoule for such a thing before. At that time, he felt that this was not to blame on her, it was just accident.
But since that happened, his opinion of her has changed.
Cheng Yu suddenly felt that his cousin, who was good to everyone in the Cheng family, was not as simple as it seemed, and seemed to be mixed with various purposes.
“Mother went to the Queen’s, but the princess was worried about it.”
“Brother Yu, you are my dearest person, can’t we be the same as before?”
“The princess was joking. I only have two younger sisters, Concubine Cheng and Cheng An.”
After that, An Ru’er’s figure swayed and her eyes were red.
That Concubine Cheng has been dead for so many years, and Cheng An is a sick child who can’t come back, but everyone in the Cheng family never forgets them! But as for her, she has worked so hard in the Cheng family for so many years. Is it because her blood is farther away, it is useless anyway?
