Of course Madam Lu had a problem with that!
She truly loved her husband Song Yuan, for which she even held a humble attitude towards Song Yixiao, a legitimate daughter of the first wife. She even got her mother into trouble because of Song Yixiao!
Then she went into labor early because she was too sad about the loss of her mother. Finally, she and her twin babies survived in the end. Now her babies were just one month old when she heard that her husband had taken a concubine!
And the concubine was the very niece of his previous step-wife Madam Liu!
No matter how virtuous a woman was, she wouldn’t put up with this after suffering such a serious blow!
But Madam Pang approached her and started to weep, “It was so stupid of me to allow Yuan to marry Wei Mengying! She stopped our family from having any boy descendent and even gave birth to the evil, Song Yixiao! Otherwise, why would your mother be implicated? Even your babi
Song Yixiao still couldn’t think it through after pondering for a while. Eventually, she had to consult her husband, “Even if my father and grandmother have no sense of propriety, Lord Gu is in the Song Family’s mansion. How can he not give them a reminder?”“How can taking a concubine run counter to the Crown Prince?” Unexpectedly, Jian Xubai said in surprise, “She is a toy only. Since she can be bought, she can be sold tomorrow. The Crown Prince has so many things to worry about. How can he have time to interfere with your father’s harem?”He added, “In the old days, among the daughters of the sinful officials, sent into the imperial palace as servants some of them were still selected as the imperial concubines and gave birth to imperial children. Lady Nuan in the palace is more or less of this type. And Madam Liu is a concubine of an official only.”Song Yixiao flushed with shame, “I stay in the backyard for long so I’m kind of narrow-minded
“Since he is on the list, why didn’t you ask him in advance?” With her face turning ghastly pale, Song Yixiao stared at Qiaoqin who was in charge of this matter, “Now Cuipiao finally makes her decision but the man she chooses doesn’t agree. How should I reply to Cuipiao now? If it is disclosed to Her Majesty the Empress Dowager, she will think that I must be narrow-minded and deliberately fool the maid that she granted to Xubai!”Qiaoqin also realized that this matter could be really troublesome. With a pale face, she replied, “Your Highness, when I asked around in the front yard, Captain Yu told me explicitly that he wanted to find a wife among the maids in the backyard! I don’t know why he changes his mind!”Yu Shiheng was brought back from Wuhuan by Jian Xubai. Although the misunderstanding between Song Yixiao and her husband was cleared, she didn’t want to make him lose face just because of their affection.Therefore, she held back her ange
Two days later, the news that Gu Shao would return to Chunnong Venue was confirmed. Song Yixiao prepared a huge housewarming gift with doubt and let her husband offer congratulations to Gu Shao with it.Jian Xubai spent almost one day in Chunnong Venue. Having returned to Duke of Yan’s mansion, he became even more confused, “Today Lord Gu is in a good mood.”“Does he think of any way to deal with Prince of Wei and Prince of Zhao?” Song Yixiao smelt alcohol on him, slightly frowned and urged him to drink the soup for the hangover, “Otherwise, as he looked so happy just after he moved out of the Song Family’s mansion, those unknowing people may think that the Song Family have mistreated him! Isn’t it discourteous?”Unexpectedly, after taking a sip of the hangover soup, Jian Xubai slightly shook his head, “I asked the others at the feast and learnt that Lord Gu hadn’t given any advice to the Crown Prince recently.”“Is it because my f
Song Yixiao intended to straighten Jiang Muting out. After seeing Yuan Xue’e off, she returned to the feast and kept her eyes on Jiang Muting’s action.After having a few drinks, she saw Jiang Muting leave the feast, who seemed like going to get dressed. Hurriedly, Song Yixiao also rose and followed her.Unexpectedly, after Jiang Muting went out and walked towards the changing room for a short distance, she suddenly turned around and headed towards a secluded place.“Where is she going?” Rather surprised, Song Yixiao wanted to stop her at first. After thinking it over, she still didn’t utter any word and then winked at Qiaoqin next to her to act quietly. Following behind Jiang Muting stealthily, they made quite a few turns and walked into a bamboo forest.Now it was late. The bamboo forest grew luxuriantly so it was inevitably dark in the forest.If she didn’t suddenly hear what Jiang Muting called in a low voice—“Xuep
Song Yixiao didn’t know that Jiang Muting returned after leaving. When she came back to her seats, she asked people next to her where did Jiang Muting go, they all told her that they hadn’t seen Jiang Muting for a while. When she was just worried, she saw Jiang Muting walked in with a smile. She also held a blooming begonia in her hands. Occasionally, she put the flower under her nose to enjoy its fragrance. It was obvious that she was in a good mood.Song Yixiao was relieved. She went to Jiang Muting and asked, “Where did you go, Muting? I was about to look for you when I didn’t see you here just now.”Jiang Muting didn’t expose the fact that Song Yixiao stalked her just now, she said with a smile, “I had some wine just now and I didn’t feel well, so I went out for a walk.”Then she gave the flower to Song Yixiao, “Sorry to make you worried, this is my apology.”“Are you feeling better now?” Song Yixiao accepted the flower and ask
Discussions about the unmarried new imperial scholars’ marriages were going on. Su Shaoge and Helou Duhan received the most attention. However, the first to get engaged officially was Cheng Chongjun.It was just that he did not have a high ranking in the imperial exam. Moreover, he was not a well-known talent. Besides his close relatives, not many people knew about this matter.“Before that, my aunt had promised to observe whether Cheng Chongjun is a good fit for Wei Chan. It turned out to be delayed, but now a marriage engagement has been decided between them.” After receiving the news, Song Yixiao told her maids to prepare the gifts, while speaking in a complicated mood, “I hope that Cheng Chongjun could be a good match for Wei Chan and they can live in harmony as a couple.”Qiaoqin knew that Wei Chan had suffered from her marriage. She was not very optimistic about the marriage of Wei Chan in the first place, but she could not say it out. Sh
“That is great news!” The couple was a little stunned when hearing this. Neither were they in the same party with Prince of Wei nor close to him in private. So, after hearing the news, apart from being surprised, they were not excited about it at all. They rewarded the man who came to report by the rules and then ordered Qiaoqin and the other first maids to prepare the gift list.The next day, Song Yixiao went to Prince of Wei’s mansion to congratulate Princess Consort of Wei. Daiguo Grand Princess and her daughter both always kept a high profile. Now that Princess Consort of Wei got pregnant, more people came to flatter them one after another. The gate of Prince of Wei’s mansion was crowded with people coming to congratulate them. The carriage of the Duke of Yan’s mansion was almost blocked outside the gate without getting in.When Song Yixiao finally managed to enter the mansion, she still had to line up for a chance to talk to Princess Consort of Wei. Th
Song Yixiao didn’t know what Ji Zifu was thinking at all.The experience of her being taken by the hound to rescue someone in Zhanchun Venue was really a humiliation to her. Until now, she didn’t tell anyone. How could she tell others something shameful like this?She even wouldn’t tell someone as close as her confidante and her husband.So, after leaving Daiguo Grand Princess’s mansion, she immediately forgot Ji Zifu’s matter.Time filed. The fifth day of the fourth lunar month soon arrived.Dowager Consort of Hengshan’s birthday banquet was held as scheduled. Maybe it was held to bring good luck to the Dowager Consort, the birthday banquet this year was especially grand. Not to mention the friends and relatives, even all the officials of the court and the new scholars received invitations.When Song Yixiao met her mother, Wei Mengying, that day, she couldn’t help but say in half surprise and half complai
At this moment, the Grand Princess of Jin's residence.Jia Yao gently picked up the silver pot on the table and poured warm rose dew into the giltsilver begonia marigold, the sound of the flower dew entering the marigold seemed particularly silent against the backdrop of the whirling winter rain outside the window.The north wind rolled through the court, lifting up a snowy mist, and the obviously warm springlike interior was flooded with a chill for no apparent reason.She suddenly heard the sound of a rustling of the Chinese tent, and busily set aside the silver pot that had only been halfpoured, turning to check just in time to see the palefaced Grand Princess of Jin rising tremblingly to her feet."Is Your Highness thirsty?" Jia Yao took three steps to the edge of the couch and held the master, on one side taking a hidden bag from the side and padding it behind the Grand Princess so that she could lean more comfortably, and on the other side she said wit
With this sudden question, even though Jian Xu Bai has always been deeply favored by the Empress Dowager, he could not help but feel creeped out!He was stunned for a moment before he got up and left the couch, kneeling down in front of the Empress Dowager, and said in a deep voice ''Why did Imperial Grandmother make such a remark? I don't dare to say that I don't have any selfishness, but I have never thought of usurping the throne! The reason why I will support His Highness King Su to ascend to the throne, apart from worrying about Second Auntie, is also because His Highness King Su has the qualifications of a wise ruler, and can succeed the late Emperor's divine warrior!"Taking a deep breath, he knocked heavily on the ground, "I never thought of betraying Lu!""Good boy, mourning home but just so ask, why do you have to be so solemn?" The dowager empress looked at him with complicated eyes, bent down to help each other, sighed, "Mourning family naturally believ
In fact, the large empire, to say that no one can really stop that so far still silent Yu Qinghan may not be the problem is, whether the empire can hold, related to the entire Qingzhou Su's future!Therefore, the first and foremost thing that the candidate for guarding the city should do is to make the Su family trust him, otherwise, even if he is talented, the Su family will not be able to give him this important task!And because of the Marquis of Yan's support for King Su, even though there is now a disconnect between the Su family and the Su family, they are unanimous on the big issue of supporting King Su to ascend to the throne so Su Shaoge immediately considered Lv Qinghong of the Marquis of Yan after having no one at hand himself.As for the other generalship talents in the city, Su Shaoge could listen to their advice, but would definitely not give the forbidden army directly to their command!Now Su Bofeng said, if Lu Qinghong can't hold up Yu Qing
Uncle Lu is Lu Qinghong, the divine archer on the Wuhuan battlefield back in the day, Jian Xubai's right hand man although he is old, but also because of his age, even if Lu Qinghong has never been a commander before, in this kind of battle of defending the city, his rich experience in the sand field is the newcomer group of forbidden army is currently in urgent need of.After all, even Yang Jue himself, aside from yesterday's battle to seize the palace, had never experienced a real war.... In fact, last night s seizure of the palace could not be considered a war at all, but rather a sneak attack of a heavier nature.After understanding Su Shaoge's intention, Jianxu Bai pondered for a while and said, "Uncle Lu can lend it to you, however, he can't go with you right away, I have to give him a few words of advice!"Su Shaoge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I should!""Uncle Lv, in your opinion, is Su Zhiyong really not confident in relying on Yang
Originally, according to Su Shaoge's intention, with Song Yixiao to take away the Jiangnan Hall secret guards "with the wind" after the token, directly erase Song Yixiao in two times to get together the token through the "with the wind" of the master, nailed Gu Shao.So send the Su family early infiltration into the "with the wind" people in fact, not necessarily "with the wind" in the people, anyway, the secret guards in addition to the internal no one knows, "Dai Feng" things to kill people are the same. "Dai Feng" to do things to kill people, recorded in the "with the wind" account is the same.Anyway, when Yang Jue led his troops into the palace, the heads that were thrown in front of He Wenqiong were all killed by "Gu Shao's secret guards from the Song family".In addition to dragging Gu Shao into the water, forcing him to help stabilize the situation and people's hearts afterwards, this is also to create the false impression that "you see, Minister Gu actual
This sudden palace change lasted until the faintest light of day, when the sound of swords and guns shouting and killing gradually subsided.But the panic in the imperial capital, from the royal family and officials down to the peddlers, could not end yet the day had already dawned, but the gates of the imperial capital's workshops still had no intention of opening."There are two pieces of news, one good and one bad." Su Shaoge reappeared in the flower hall of Marquis Yan's mansion, his face unable to tell if he was happy or angry, "The good news is that last night's takeover of the palace went very smoothly, inside and outside of the imperial city, no, it should be within the imperial capital, it's all already within our grasp!"But the bad news is very bad, "The forbidden troops sent to Wei's house missed their mark, allowing Wei Xi to escape up the city wall and let down at night!"If it was just one Wei Xi, Su Shaoge wouldn't be worried, the problem is,
After a moment of silence in the hall, Bell said in a hard tone, "Then why did Grandma hand over the 'Follow the Wind' token to Second Duke Su just now? In case he took it ...""Have you noticed?" Song Yixiao's gaze was icy cold as he said, "I only gave him the token, and he didn't ask for anything else I remember when I only had half of the token in my hand, I had asked him for advice on the matter of the Six Valves' secret guards, and he said that the token could first and foremost only be used by the head of the family, and only by the head of the family who had reached the age of the bundle of hair! Of course I am the only one left in the Jiangnan Hall's direct line now, so of course this rule is not so strict. But, he's neither under me nor is he anyone of mine, and he can actually mobilize 'Follow the Wind' with just the token! What do you think that means?!"Bell was slightly lost in thought and said ''So there are Su family members in the 'Follow the Wind'? But
Su Shaoge mildly said, "Of course it's useful when your father gifted the dark guards to Gu Shao, although it wasn't announced to the public, my Su family heard about it."He paused here, giving Song Yixiao a moment to think, before continuing, "So if there is a 'Follow the Wind' out there right now, it's always easier to do the aftermath, I don't know what Grandma thinks?"Song Yixiao stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and mused.She understands the meaning of Su Shaoge's words, the socalled "I have heard of the Su family", meaning that they have the evidence of Song Yuan to Gu Shao's gift of secret guards, then this interception of He Wenqiong, as long as the "with the wind" is involved, regardless of whether the order comes from the Song Yixiao or Gu Shao, will be credited to Gu Shao's head in the end! The final result will be put on Gu Shao's head!So if you hold Gu Shao's handle, you can coerce Gu Shao to help the aftermath then the aftermath will
He Wenqiong is very disappointed to look at the screen outside the granddaughter's silhouette, although He Xiuyi did not enter the palace before, with his grandfather in fact not see a lot, but in the end is the eldest granddaughter, He Wenqiong occasionally listen to his son and daughterinlaw mentioned to He Xiuyi's character is still an understanding of the granddaughter of the broken not have the guts to join the conspiracy to kill the eldest Princess of Changxing things.The problem was that when the palace maid accused He Xiuyi of being displeased with Empress Su, in full view of everyone, instead of immediately retorting, He Xiuyi exuded a clear sense of trepidation!Now who doesn't know that she did express her displeasure with Empress Su?"This child is still too young and has experienced too little!" He Wenqiong sighed inwardly and decided to divert the blame he asked to reexamine the scented sachets made by Ms. Jiang, and questioned whether the scented s
