Chapter 3 The Concubine Makes Things Difficult
Chapter 3 The Concubine makes trouble
When Yu Yunxi came to the front hall, he saw an old woman sitting there in plain clothes. She closed her eyes, turned Buddhist beads in her hands, and muttered words in her mouth.
She should be Concubine Ning who was the favorite of the harem, and Concubine Ning is now Concubine Ning.
Hearing the movement, Concubine Ning slowly opened her eyes and glanced at Yu Yunxi with a look.
"Yunxi has seen the Empress of the Concubine." Yu Yunxi blessed her body and bowed gently.
"What else is the name of the Concubine? I call it the Concubine. Yesterday's wedding was too hasty, I feel sorry for you." Concubine Ning waved to her, her tone was extremely gentle.
Yu Yunxi couldn't help but be stunned. Did the concubine have such a kind temper towards a person born from a concubine?
She lowered her eyes and suppressed her doubts, and slowly walked to the other party.
"Good child, mother must be very resistant to knowing that you have married into the Regent's Mansion..." Concubine Ning took Yu Yunxi's hand and patted the back of her hand with care.
Yu Yunxi's expression became weird, so... Concubine Ning planned not to let her be buried with her?
"But," suddenly Concubine Ning's tone changed, "Since you have entered the Regent's Mansion, that's your fate! If Li'er cannot wake up because of your blessing, then you can only go downstairs to explore the way for him first."
There was murderous intent flashing in her eyebrows and eyes.
When Yu Yunxi heard this, he felt helpless. Fortunately, she thought that Concubine Ning was kind-hearted. It turned out that it was just her illusion.
In the other party, the lives of others are simply not worth mentioning compared to those of her son!
"Princess, it's time to offer tea to the concubine." Liu Mama reminded her in a bad tone.
Yu Yunxi was helpless, but he still reached out to take the tea and then slowly knelt down.
"Too...Mother, please have tea."
Concubine Ning looked at her deeply and found that she could not find any fault with her etiquette, so she was willing to take the tea.
After taking a sip of tea, she remembered something and began to remind her coldly: "You are the concubine daughter of the Prime Minister's Mansion. You have never been taught since childhood. Your etiquette is definitely not as good as that of a serious family. But the Ai family still hopes that you will remember your current identity and not be as shamed to the Regent's Mansion..."
"Also," her voice rose slightly, her eyes became a little unkind, "Don't learn from your despicable mother's behavior. The Ai family heard that your mother was born as a businessman's daughter, and came from Jiangnan. She had a humble status. After becoming the aunt of the prime minister's mansion, she dared to hook up with the guards. Otherwise, your father wouldn't hate you mother and daughter so much..."
"My mother has never done anything that goes beyond the distance!" Yu Yunxi, who was extremely docile just now, suddenly looked up and interrupted Concubine Ning's words in a cold voice.
Her body trembled slightly, and under her long sleeves, her fingers curled up into fists.
My mother was framed back then!
My mother is such a good person, but she can't wait to be renamed until she is forced to feed poison and thrown into a mass grave.
"Ha, you dare to talk back? The Ai family just gave you a little kindness. That's for Li'er. Since you have become the daughter-in-law of the Ai family, you have to listen to the accusations of the Ai family! If it weren't for your despicable mother who saved Taizu back then, would you think you could live safely in the prime minister's mansion until now?"
The concubine sneered, her face slightly gloomy.
"Mother, before Yun Xi came to the palace, he heard that the prince was a great hero. Yun Xi thought that as the prince's mother, you should also be a person who distinguishes right from wrong. You will never be just because of others' words. Listening to the wind is the wind, and listening to the rain is the rain!"
Yu Yunxi took a deep breath, and she stood up from the ground and spoke word by word.
"Rareless, are you talking about the right and wrong of the Ai family?" Concubine Ning narrowed her eyes and anger appeared on her face.
"My mother has been in the harem for many years and should have framed her methods. My mother came from Jiangnan and her relatives had long passed away, but the dowry she brought far exceeds that of many female relatives in the capital. She also knows medical skills and often goes to the palace to treat Taizu, which is highly praised by Taizu. In this way, she arouses jealousy and is normal for others to be plotted against. The concubine may not be true when she sees her, let alone when she hears her?"
Yu Yunxi's words were more sad and angry.
Her mother is the best mother, and she will never allow others to tarnish her reputation!
"Shut up!" Concubine Ning was so angry that she slapped the table.
Just when she was about to give orders to stumble, a loud shout came from outside: "The emperor has arrived."
After hearing this, she could only suppress Yu Yunxi's plan to teach her a lesson. She said viciously: "A man is coming from the palace. Please be smarter for the Ai family and don't be ashamed of the royal palace. Otherwise, the Ai family would not spare me!"
Soon, several figures appeared at the door.
Madam Liu quickly helped Concubine Ning up.
"Grandmaster, how can I help you get up? You can sit down quickly."
The person who came was Eunuch Lin De. As a celebrity around the emperor, he was a personal spirit. As soon as he came in, he went straight to Concubine Ning.
"There is nothing to do in Ai's family," Concubine Ning shook her head gently and continued to speak, "Eunuch Lin, what's wrong with the emperor sending you here?"
"Reporting to the Empress of the Concubine, the national master has sent another message. He will not be able to return to Beijing in two days, but he specially ordered someone to send the Han Yu Coffin first." Lin De replied patiently.
Han Yu Coffin? Concubine Ning looked suspicious.
"In the letter, the national master told the emperor that the regent was weak and weak, so he had to put him in a coffin cast with cold jade and nail him to gather his soul and wake up as soon as possible." Lin De said patiently.
"No, the prince is still alive. Now put it in the coffin, how can he breathe?" Yu Yunxi felt it was ridiculous when she heard it, and she shouted to dissuade her.
Now, Lin De's inquiring eyes fell on her.
"Who are you……"
"She is the new princess." Concubine Ning glanced at Yu Yunxi angrily.
The eyes clearly blamed her for being rude.
However, Yu Yunxi's words also reminded her. She was silent for a moment, and then asked Lin De in confusion: "Eunuch Lin, the cold jade coffin is cold. If you seal it, what if Li Er has a short and two shorts inside, Ai's family..."
"Don't worry about the concubine," Lin De shook his head and said calmly, "The national master said that the cold jade coffin was something his master left to him, a treasure for healing diseases and injuries. If a person lies in it, he will only benefit."
"What does the national master really say?" Listening to Lin De's words, the worries on Concubine Ning's face gradually decreased.
"That's natural. The national teacher has always been very concerned about the situation of the Regent. He left Beijing this time to find the Han Yu Coffin."
"Then why don't you send it to the prince quickly so that the prince can lie in!"
When Concubine Ning heard this, she felt like she had caught a life-saving straw, so she quickly ordered.
"Yes, Empress Dowager." Lin De nodded, then took his own people, carried the long nails, and carried the Han Yu Coffin to Feng Yili's yard.
Yu Yunxi was a little panicked and wanted to stop him.
Detecting her thoughts, Concubine Ning's face turned gloomy.
"Come here, look at the princess. Without the orders of the Ai family, she is not allowed to take a step here." She ordered coldly.
