250, pray(1/2)
Princess Duan Min smiled, "I won't bother my mother anymore. Just leave this little thing to me."
Mrs. Ruan wanted to deal with Biyun's slutty hoof with her own hands. She had no vision at all, and she provoked Princess Duanmin. She couldn't guess whether this daughter-in-law was angry. If it were someone else, Mrs. Ruan would never be so angry.
But this daughter-in-law has a noble status and is not simple, and the Ruan family cannot afford to offend.
"The eldest princess calmed down. This slut was originally a bit honest, but when she was old, she had thoughts she shouldn't have. She deserved to die."
Mrs. Ruan was cautious and said soft words, for fear that Princess Duanmin would get angry, and she would hold a grudge against the Ruan family, and even more afraid that she would go to the palace to complain.
Although Princess Duanmin was angry about this, she could not rely on Mrs. Ruan. There was still some measure of this, especially since Mrs. Ruan came to apologize in person, and Princess Duanmin's anger had disappeared without a trace.
"Mother doesn't have to take it to her heart. She is just a slave who doesn't know the best. She doesn't have to hurt the harmony between our mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. The daughter-in-law is not angry. Just give her a small lesson and then send it out."
Princess Duanmin personally held a cup of tea and handed it to Mrs. Ruan, smiled. Mrs. Ruan took it with both hands and breathed a sigh of relief, "It's good if you don't get angry. The eldest princess is generous and open-minded, and she is newly married to Zhiyan. Don't be transferred by such a bastard."
Not to mention taking a concubine, even if Mrs. Ruan dares not mention it. As long as Princess Duanmin gave birth to the child of the Ruan family, Mrs. Ruan would pretend to be deaf and mute in the future, turning a blind eye and never dared to get involved.
"Go and invite the young master." Mrs. Ruan ordered the maid.
After a while, Ruan Zhiyan arrived. Mrs. Ruan immediately said, "Biyun is the eldest maid next to you, but she is a bad-minded person. She really disrespects the eldest princess and even her mother can't stand it. I'm going to make the decision today and I've sent Biyun's family away. You and the eldest princess have just gotten married. You must not have Yingying and Yanyan around you. Change the maid around you into servants."
In front of Princess Duanmin, Mrs. Ruan took the responsibility on herself and protected Princess Duanmin everywhere.
Ruan Zhiyan was slightly stunned, turned his head and looked at Princess Duanmin, "Did Biyun contradict the princess?"
Su Qing told everything about what had just happened. Ruan Zhiyan pursed her lips tightly and was silent for a while. Princess Duanmin felt a slump in her heart when she saw this. Biyun was not bad, she was well-fed, with fine skin and tender flesh, and her slender waist was graceful. It would not be surprising if Ruan Zhiyan took a fancy to it.
Could it be that Ruan Zhiyan was unhappy?
Ruan Zhiyan bent down and bent, "It's my fault. Biyun is indeed a restless person. I was thinking of Biyu's mother doing business in the mansion and turned a blind eye. But I didn't expect Biyun to disturb the eldest princess. I should indeed punish him. Please forgive me."
Mrs. Ruan breathed a sigh of relief and looked at her son's humble appearance, and she felt a little uncomfortable. Her son was both civil and military, and everything was good. How could he be so humble?
"What does the prince consort say? The prince consort is busy with official duties every day and does not come to the backyard often, so it is inevitable that he is not careful. I don't take this matter to heart."
Princess Duanmin personally helped Ruan Zhiyan up, "The prince-in-law doesn't have to be so polite in the future. You and I are husband and wife, but I have seen each other like this. Biyun and his family have just sent it out, so there is no need to delay their good mood because of this."
"The eldest princess said this very well. We don't have to be angry anymore. It's really not good." Mrs. Ruan muddled from the middle and smiled at the eldest princess. It seems that this matter has been overturned.
Biyun and his family were sent away, and Mrs. Ruan was determined to establish authority for Princess Duanmin. In this way, who would dare to think about Ruan Zhiyan?
Mrs. Ruan left quickly, but Ruan Zhiyan did not leave. Instead, she sat on the chair and Su Qing retreated with tactfulness.
"Mr. Concubine, I..."
"I would like to thank the eldest princess for sending Biyun for me today. That maid is indeed inappropriate."
Knowing what she was going to say, Ruan Zhiyan smiled and saw that Princess Duanmin had a hot cheek. Ruan Zhiyan said again, "I will move here to live with the Princess today."
"There is no need to call my eldest princess in the future, just call my name."
Listening to the sound of the princess being so awkward, Ruan Zhiyan nodded and called Duanmin.
In the afternoon, Mrs. Ruan replaced all the maids around Ruan Zhiyan with servants and sent all the maids outside to work as jobs, basically no longer seeing Ruan Zhiyan.
The servant moved Ruan Zhiyan's gift to the main courtyard and handed it over to Su Qing to arrange it one by one. Princess Duan Min was nervous and drank water.
The cup in his hand was filled again, Ruan Zhiyan reached out and took the cup away. Princess Duanmin looked up in shock.
"It's time to keep drinking."
Princess Duanmin nodded.
After dinner, Ruan Zhiyan got up to take a shower. Princess Duanmin sat on the chair, her palms were sweating and she was very nervous. The tip of her nose was suddenly surrounded by a scent of fragrance. She put her hands on her waist and wrapped her slender waist in her arms.
The next day
Princess Duanmin opened her eyes and was exhausted. Su Qing came in to wait for her to wash up, "Princess, do you need to have a meal?"
"Yeah!" The voice was very small, and the people around him had already disappeared. There was still residual heat on the collapse. As if he had remembered something, Princess Duanmin's heart beat fast and asked again, "Where is the prince consort?"
"What's this!" Ruan Zhiyan walked in the door with a refreshing step. She was dressed in white and looked handsome and beautiful. Princess Duan Min wanted to find a gap to get in. She lowered her head, and Ruan Zhiyan laughed at her, "I will stay in the palace these two days."
"good."
When I went to pay my respects to Mrs. Ruan in the morning, Mrs. Ruan discovered the difference between Princess Duanmin and felt a little relieved, "This matter has been accomplished."
"Mrs. Don't worry, Madam. I look at the eldest princess considerate and well-educated, and is an excellent person to get along with. Our young master is gentle and kind. The two of them stand together like the perfect person on the painting."
Mrs. Ruan smiled, "After all, it's a royal princess. Compared to the next door, the eldest princess is really undeniable. Yesterday, I heard that there were a lot of troubles next door. The princess killed a pregnant concubine and bleed all over the floor, making the wife of Dingguo fainted in anger."
The more I thought about it, the more I became more shocked. If it weren’t for the disagreement between Empress Dowager Ruan and Concubine Liu and stopped this marriage, I might have thought that Princess Xinyang would be the wife of the Ruan family.
After marrying Princess Xinyang, such a daughter-in-law, Mrs. Ruan can live several years less.
A few days later, bad news came from next door. Princess Xinyang was critically ill. She asked several doctors to take the pulse one after another. When the news came to Princess Duanmin, she raised her eyebrows, "Is she really sick?"
"I guess it's because the palace has given some medicinal materials. I'm afraid I'm very sick when I see the situation."
Princess Duanmin hesitated for a moment, and suddenly remembered that when she was in the palace, she was jealous of Princess Xinyang and was bullied by her again and again. Concubine Li Xian had a weak personality and did not like her. Most of the time, Princess Duanmin suffered losses, and the feng shui changed. Now she is the noble princess, but Xinyang is implicated by King Heng, and no one dares to get close to her.
"The Marquis of Dingguo Mansion must have endured it for a long time."
If there is no action, the Marquis of Dingguo Mansion will definitely be dragged down by Princess Xinyang and will ruin a bright future in vain.
"Princess, Princess Xinyang sent someone to send a letter."
Princess Duanmin pursed her lips, picked up the letter, and glanced at it quickly. It was Xinyang who asked her to meet her. After thinking for a while, she said, "I will tell the person who sent the letter that I will not go if I feel uncomfortable, so I will let Xinyang take a good rest."
"Princess, Princess Xinyang said that before her death, I wanted to talk to the princess alone. The people outside the door couldn't get up, I'm so busy..."
"Bastard!" Su Qing scolded him angrily, "Didn't you hear the princess say? Let's leave quickly!"
Princess Duanmin waved her hand, "Forget it, let's go."
...
Dingguo Hou Mansion
In just a few days, Princess Xinyang lost a lot of weight, and her temples were mixed with some silver threads. She lost her former water spirit. She was aged more than teenagers and was lying on the collapse to cough, as if she wanted to cough out her lungs.
"Ahem!"
There were only two maids around him who dared to approach him. Everyone else hid far away. The strong smell of medicine in the room was disgusting.
With a creaking sound, the door was pushed open. Princess Duanmin walked in slowly, glanced at the bed lightly, and was really shocked.
Princess Xinyang looked up at Princess Duanmin. Seeing that she was slim and dressed in gorgeous clothes, she looked like a girl with 28 people. Several people were following her, as if everyone was holding the moon and laughing at herself. Who would have thought that the proud Princess Xinyang would end up in a embarrassed appearance today. Princess Changxun, who was looked down upon in the past, turned over once, and was admired by thousands of people and highly respected.
"Everyone goes out, I have a few words to say to Duanmin alone." Princess Xinyang sat up with her body.
Su Qing frowned and didn't want to leave.
"If you have anything to say, just say it." Princess Duanmin did not intend to let the people around her leave, her eyes were calm.
Princess Xinyang shook her head, simply didn't care, and stood up stumbled and knelt on the ground with a thud.
"All the past were my own fault. Today, please don't have a lot of experience with me."
It is really not easy to make the noble Princess Xinyang kneel at her feet. Princess Duanmin avoided it. Princess Xinyang said again, "I only ask you for one thing. For the sake of seeing you and I are sisters, please help."
Princess Duanmin clenched her fingertips and did not speak.
"I beg you to take care of Brother Yuan occasionally. I know it's too forced to do it, but I really can't do it anymore. I offended the Marquis of Dingguo Mansion. As long as I die, Brother Yuan will definitely be disliked. You are the eldest princess and are brothers and sisters with the emperor. As long as you take care of one or two of them, Brother Yuan will have much better life."
Princess Duanmin was soft-hearted. Before she came, she had thought about countless possibilities, and was even prepared to leave after being insulted.
But I never thought that Princess Xinyang actually knelt down and begged her to take care of Brother Yuan.
"You... get up. Brother Yuan still has the blood of the royal family in his body. The Marquis of Dingguo dare not act as Brother Yuan, and Brother Yuan is still the legitimate son."
Princess Xinyang shook her head, "What's the use of a legitimate son? I will be disliked after all. My identity is embarrassing. The Marquis of Dingguo will definitely not tolerate Brother Yuan'er in order to protect themselves. Duanmin, I beg you, give Brother Yuan a way out. I will repay you for being a cow or a horse in the next life."
Princess Duanmin took a deep breath. Brother Yuan was only two years old this year. Without her biological mother by her side, she might be punished.
"How do you want me to help you?"
Princess Xinyang covered her chest with one hand, her face pale, and she kept breathing a sigh of relief, "Pick a trustworthy person as her second wife, and her status should not be too high. It is best to be a illegitimate daughter of a fifth-rank official."
This is a good idea. Without a mother's family, she will not be able to make a big fuss even if she has a child. Even if she has a child in the future, she will not pose too much threat to Brother Yuan.
"I know you are kind-hearted, and it was all my fault in the past..." Princess Xinyang apologized again, gritted her teeth and slapped herself in the face. Her thin and slender body was shaking. Princess Duanmin couldn't see it anymore, "You don't have to do this, I agree to this."
Princess Xinyang was very happy and stepped forward to pull Princess Duan Min's sleeve, "There is one more thing, remember, when the father was dying, he still had a secret guard in his hand, which was taken away by the empress dowager."
Princess Duan Min's eyes were slightly stunned, and Princess Xinyang raised her head, "What I said is true, this is what I saw with my own eyes."
"Yeah, I believe you."
After staying for a while, Princess Duan Min was thinking about it and wanted to go to the palace. She met the Prince of Dingguo Hou on the way.
"The eldest princess..."
Princess Duanmin's eyes were a little cold, "Treat Xinyang well, Xinyang is a princess after all, and no one can tolerate others' abuse!"
Leave a word, Princess Duanmin left with her sleeves.
The Prince of Dingguo stared at Princess Duanmin's back and asked the gatekeeper, "What did the Princess and Princess just said?"
The gatekeeper shook his head, "The eldest princess has stepped back and is not allowed to listen."
The prince of Dingguo was silent.
