Difficult to be a Concubine - C299

Mu Rousang did not seal him because he saved him again, and he did not mention this matter, the two of them had this sort of tacit understanding, there were some things that were not needed to be mentioned!

“If Zixuan wants to bully you, just come find me!”

“I know, if you want to eat my food, just send someone to tell Zixuan that I’ll make someone to bring it in …”

She hesitated again, then smiled apologetically. “I forgot again.”

“If you remember, you wouldn’t have abandoned this last position. I don’t blame you, the palace isn’t like any other place!”

When Su Ruirui was ten years old, he was sealed by the Xiangyang, and when he was fifteen, he officially went to the vassal lords. He had been used to palace’s affairs since he was young, and that was why he treasured them so much when he met Mu Rousang!

“En!”

The two of them sat facing each other in silence. After a while, he lazily said, “I am sleepy! You don’t have to see me again when you leave tomorrow. ”

He did not want to face separation, and from then on, he was at a great distance!

The next day, the purple-red light rose from the east side of the palace, and the heavy red lacquer gate of the palace was forcefully pushed open.

Squatting at the corner, Yang Zixuan, who was accompanied by Commander Zhao, looked haggard. When he heard the door open, he immediately jumped and ran over.

A figure that he had missed for a long time was reflected in his eyes. He was so excited that no matter how much he said in his heart, he just turned into “My wife!”

“Husband!”

Mu Rousang quickly walked in front of him, looked at the skinny man in front of him, and laughed: “My husband’s good body that took so much effort to raise has fallen again.”

“My wife!” Yang Zixuan’s heart was filled with grief, and his naughty words instantly swatted him away!

“Come on, let’s go home. Grandmother heard that you entered the palace, but she was very worried and kept scolding people at home.”

It was self-evident who he was scolding. Not long after, Idle Consort’s son was infected with smallpox too, but he was not as lucky as Su Ruirui, and Mu Rousang did not go to treat him either. His already weak body could not withstand such a serious illness, and he did not endure it.

The noble women of the Great Zhou Dynasty felt as if they were on stimulants. Because Her Majesty had ordered the selection of suitable concubines for the emperor.

It was just that the position of Empress could never be mentioned. He did not know how Su Ruirui and Empress Dowager Dun Shu had negotiated with each other, but the position of empress was suspended at this moment.

Of course, this was something that would come later!

Following the decree for the selection of women, the people continued to go through the process like a raging fire, but the scene in the Imperial Palace was a completely different story.

Ever since Mu Rousang went into the palace to look after him, Yang Zixuan was very worried, but he did not know how he came to a conclusion, or how he came to a secret discussion with Mu Jinzhi. In short, the Princess Huaiqing entered the palace again.

Of course, Princess Huaiqing often went to the palace to accompany the empress dowager. Since Su Ruirui had smallpox, he lived in the palace to the point where he could gossip and talk about things that people hid carefully.

When the Princess Jing’an followed her back to her parents’ house to roll and act coquettishly, she whispered in her ear again. Princess Huaiqing’s complexion changed again, but in the end, she was pushed into the palace by the Princess Jing’an.

“Empress Dowager, you look well today?”

When the previous emperor was still alive, the Princess Huaiqing was very arrogant and proud. Now that the previous emperor wasn’t around, they could only befriend the empress dowager.

“Stop talking nonsense with This Dowager. I knew you had something you wanted to ask of me. Just tell me quickly. When you’re done, accompany This Dowager to see that White Jade Peacock that the barbarian has paid tribute to!”

The Empress Dowager glanced at his, then motioned to the palace maid to bring her the new snacks from the imperial kitchen.

“Eh, the empress dowager also likes pastries stuffed with fresh flowers?”

“You’ve eaten?”

The Empress Dowager looked at her in confusion.

“Ai, isn’t this the same as Jing’an marrying a poor kid? Her sister-in-law would do this. ” Princess Huaiqing laughed.

“You’re talking about the top scholar today. Judging from the emperor’s words, he seems to be very important to him. Is he a talented young lady named Jing’an?” Wasn’t she the sister of the top scholar? After His Majesty recovered from his illness, This Dowager even mentioned to him that he had to properly reward that little daughter-in-law. Why was it that she still hadn’t been rewarded even now? “What a load of nonsense.”

After all, she had saved her son’s life twice before, so it wouldn’t be too much even if she treated her as a benefactor. Only, she was stopped by Su Ruirui, who only knew that the wood elves would be destroyed by the wind, whether it was Yang Zixuan or Mu Rousang, they weren’t suitable to be roasted on fire.

“The Emperor probably has too many concerns!”

Princess Huaiqing was also an intelligent person, after slight thinking, coupled with the gossips she heard, she was able to understand about half of Su Ruirui’s thoughts.

“Your majesty is in a difficult situation. A single or two officials are all staring at his harem! It’s time to strike a balance in front of the hall! ”

The matter of Empress Dowager Tantai making an early start in the imperial court was very moving.

Princess Huaiqing recalled the scenes of how she was spoiled by the late emperor in the past and couldn’t help but say, “Back then, when big brother late emperor was still alive, the palace was extremely lively!”

“That’s true. Your brother and your sister, it’s just that this one has no way to add a sister or brother to the emperor’s company.”

In the past, she favored the harem, but she could only protect Su Ruirui’s child. Afterwards, she was pregnant with a few babies, which either slipped or disappeared before she grew up!

It had hurt Empress Dowager Dun’s heart, and after that, Su Ruirui had become the Xiangyang King, so she had no mood to think about his children.

“Empress Dowager, Mme Marquis Wen is an exceptional person, even I am moved by his words. After suffering so much, both brother and sister have ascended to a higher level, and now that you’re living a noble life, you might as well send someone to bring her to the palace so that she can tell you some interesting stories about the countryside. Although it’s a little crude, it’s still fun to listen to!”

The Princess Huaiqing brought up Mu Rousang in a roundabout way. Empress Dowager Dunn muttered to himself for a moment, “The fact that the emperor delayed withholding the rewards is related to the hall in the front hall. After all, the champion of the imperial examinations, the Marquis of Yuanwen Chang, and the Wen Bo Hou are related, if not rewarded, the emperor would not be wise!”

“This matter is very difficult, Empress Dowager. Don’t worry about it!” Princess Huaiqing replied with a smile.

As Su Ruirui’s biological mother, there was no one who didn’t understand their son’s thoughts. They probed, “However, mentioning the Mme Marquis Wen, I remember now. Liu Wanshi seems to have become her upbringing aunt.”

“Yes, I heard it was my son-in-law who asked for it.”

The Princess Huaiqing’s words were flawless, it was not wrong for brother to find a way for his sister to get a good upbringing aunt.

“That’s good! “Some other day, when you enter the palace, bring her in for a look!” It was unknown what the Empress Dowager was planning.

The Princess Huaiqing immediately agreed. As long as Mu Rousang came to the empress dowager’s palace often, it would be hard for him to force Mu Rousang into the palace. Furthermore, everyone knew that Mu Rousang was favored by the empress dowager, so the outsiders wouldn’t intentionally make wild guesses.

Mu Rousang didn’t know what the fox spirit in her house was planning, but ever since she took care of the sick Su Ruirui, the depression in her heart had dissipated, and this cute little bun’s plan was also put on the agenda.

An aunt of the palace who was released was surnamed Wang. Everyone called her Aunt Wang after Aunt Liu.

Aunt Wang was an aunt who specialized in the treatment of medicine. Aunt Liu had invited her to come and specially treat Mu Rousang’s body.

As for Yang Zizhi’s family who had been demoted to a commoner, they had matters to take care of.

The moment she entered, she saw Yang Zizhi, Yang Junhua and Concubine Yan holding Yang Ru Cheng in front of the matriarch.

“Grandmother, Sun’s daughter-in-law is unfilial. Recently, I’ve been so busy that I haven’t even touched the ground, I haven’t come to visit you.”

It was probably because of the absence of the Duke Palaces that the Matriarch Yang was actually extremely calm, and his face had turned a lot redder.

“Come quickly and show it to Grandmother.” Matriarch Yang was extremely satisfied with Mu Rousang.

“Grandmother, did you call the Sun’s daughter-in-law here today for something?”

When Mu Rousang saw Concubine Yan hug Ru Cheng with a face full of joy, his heart was moved.

She had first seen Yang Junhua and before she asked that question.

Matriarch Yang looked back at Yang Junhua, and only spoke after seeing him nod her head: “It’s not about the other things, but about your brother’s matter. Now, the Yang family has fallen, and your father and I are fine, but the Yang family’s foundation has definitely been preserved, but the pitiful Zi Zhi has suffered a similar fate.”

The laws of the Great Zhou state that the demoted family of three cannot be officials in the court.

As a result, they only sentenced Yang Zizhi’s faction. Although many of the other clan members were implicated, their foundation was still there, and with Yang Zixuan, the Wen Bo Hou, as the support, no one dared to step on the Yang Family. Compared to the other established nobles, their lives were much easier.

“Although the several great families still have their foundations, looking at the entire capital, it is all thanks to your mother’s improper conduct back then. It was Liu Chengyin who inadvertently interfered. Now, I have to thank her for tormenting Zixuan to such an extent.”

When the Matriarch Yang mentioned this in front of Yang Junhua, Mu Rousang felt very awkward.

At this moment, Yang Junhua spoke up, “I’ve fought for my entire life and struggled for my whole life, but as I grew older, I realized that this life was also very comfortable. Usually, when I’m at home, writing and playing with birds, it’s much better than when I was with a few colleagues at the same time.

When he thought about his comrades who supported the crippled emperor together with him, the families, the exile, and the decapitation, Yang Junhua only stripped away his official position and paid a few hundred thousand taels of silver. Although he was demoted to a commoner and had suffered in prison, living the life of a rich man at home was actually better than those people.

“What did father say? Zixuan said it many times that he was going to take you and Grandmother to the manor.”
