Princess Hexiao has always been arrogant and never scruples too much in doing things. Naturally, she will not care about the face of a daughter she has never cared about, let alone how this daughter will live in her husband's family.
Therefore, the dignitaries in Beijing know everything about this matter.
However, Princess Hexiao's palace belongs to the inner city, and the common people in the inner city cannot enter. Even if the dignitaries know the affairs of the royal family, they dare not speak out at will.
Therefore, this matter is a real secret to the common people, and a 'secret' that is recognized but cannot be told by the powerful.
Old Man Qi and others all had their eyes rounded in shock when they heard this.
If their inner thoughts could be expressed in barrage form, each of them would be thinking: How could a princess of the royal family be so mean to her own daughter?
In their minds, the royal family are all very happy people. They have everything they want, eat whatever they want, and wear whatever they want. Why can there be such disgusting things?
As for their family, they used to be so poor. Si Lang was also born prematurely and had to be raised with the same care. But they had never disliked Si Lang.
Don't mention whether the baby is a boy or a girl. If Siliang was really a girl, they would only feel more distressed and cherished.
Siliang, who was endorsing Li Zheng's family: Should I change my personality and be reincarnated?
Fang Qi didn't hear anything, but just because he didn't hear it didn't mean he didn't know how to read. Looking at the muttering of a bunch of people, a fool would know that they were talking in whispers that were not suitable for others to hear.
Zhiqu silently backed away.
Seeing that Qi Bao'er didn't show any intention of not being willing to listen, Qiu Yu continued boldly: "Isn't it said outside that Marquis Chunkang is cold and heartless towards Princess Ningping?"
Several people who heard this nodded. Chunkang Houfu was considered a relatively prestigious family in Yong'an City. Although Chunkang Hou had no real power, he had a lot of land, including Zhuangzidu near Yongan City, which belonged to Chunkang Houfu.
There are about ten places, and I heard there are others in other places.
In addition, he is a Marquis, and even if he has no real power, the dignitaries in the city still have to give him the face he deserves. Therefore, at least few people in Yong'an City would know Marquis Chunkang if he calls him by his name.
Being so famous, everyone has heard about his family's affairs.
For example, Princess Ningping, the direct wife of Marquis Chunkang, hardly went out on weekdays. When the Marquis was outside, her concubine actually came forward.
For example, the eldest son of Marquis Chunkang had poor bones and it was said that he might become pregnant at any time.
For example, the Marquis of Chunkang had a lot of concubine children.
Another example is that in the Marquis of Chunkang's Mansion, it was not his legitimate wife who was in charge of the house, but his concubine who was in charge of the inner chamber.
Etc., etc.
We don’t know if it’s true or false.
However, with these rumors out there, it seems that the chaos within the Chunkang Marquis Mansion is relatively true.
Sure enough, what Miao Yu said later confirmed this: "The Princess of Ningping County is in poor health. When she got married, Princess Hexiao chose several pretty-looking maids for her dowry. Now, almost all of the concubines around Chunkang Marquis are
It’s these people.”
Parents' orders cannot be violated, and Princess Hexiao used the excuse of "for your own good". At that time, the eldest princess had something to do and was not in the capital, and no one made decisions for Princess Ningping.
There is no lie in this matter, but Qiu Yu heard it true when the eldest princess and/or princess Xiao had a quarrel in the palace.
That was the first and only time Qiu Yu saw the always kind and calm eldest princess being so angry. She grabbed Princess Hexiao's hair and pushed her to the ground like a shrew, then slapped her fiercely. Her words were full of curses.
Princess Hexiao became a mother.
"Hiss~" Several men in the Qi family gasped in unison.
Qiu Yu didn't mention anyone by name, but that didn't stop them from hearing the real meaning.
Is she still my biological mother?
To give as a dowry to your own daughter who is about to get married????
What kind of confusing behavior is this?
These are not mother and daughter. They have enemies, right?
-
Qi Bao'er felt that he really didn't have the aura of a protagonist. Even if something happened to someone while sleeping outdoors, they wouldn't need their help.
They were not alarmed because Chunkang Hou and the others had prepared medicine themselves.
One night passed, and the large team set off again with no end in sight. Half walking and half moving, they finally arrived in the capital in the evening.
After entering the city gate, roads extend in all directions, everyone goes to their own places, and finally the horses pulling the cart can trot on the road.
It's not a coincidence, after all, the two families are going in the same direction, and the Chunkang Marquis's carriage team is always in front of the Qi family's carriage team.
Everyone has a gossip factor. Even if he doesn’t feel like a very curious person, after learning about the relationship between Princess Hexiao and Princess Ningping, he has paid more attention to where Princess Ningping went during his trip.
When we approached Dongsan Lane in the inner city, even Qibaoer opened some car windows and looked forward.
Princess Hexiao is not as favored as the eldest princess, and her status is not as good as that of the eldest princess. This can be seen from the mansions where they live.
The eldest princess's mansion is right next to the palace, but the Zhongyonghou's mansion where Princess Hexiao lives, and the Anle County mansion where Qi Bao'er lives, are both in Dongsan Lane.
The Zhongyong Marquis' Mansion is also opposite the Anle County Lord's Mansion. You name it, it's a coincidence.
Qiu Yu also poked her head and took a look behind Qi Bao'er. When she saw that the carriage of the Marquis Chunkang did not turn toward Dongsan Lane but continued to go straight, she tugged on Qi Bao'er's sleeve and she actually felt a little excited.
"County Master, look, Princess Ningping has gone directly back to Princess Dachang's Mansion. Princess Hexiao is going to lose face this time."
My daughter went back to Beijing to visit her relatives, but instead of going back to her biological mother's home, she went to her aunt's home instead.
Is this retribution?
Qi Baoer looked back at her speechlessly, "You don't like Princess Hexiao very much?"
Qiu Yu's expression suddenly changed, and she fell to her knees with a pop, "I don't dare, this slave."
The answer is already obvious: I dare not, not no.
Qi Baoer raised his hand to signal her to get up and asked, "Is Princess Hexiao really so annoying?"
Even a palace official hates her so obviously. What kind of outrageous thing has she done?
Qiu Yu timidly raised her head and glanced at Qi Bao'er. She had made a mistake by daring to talk about the princess. If she had another master, she was probably cold by now.
Even if she saw that Qi Bao'er didn't mean to be really angry, she didn't dare to get up. She kept kneeling and sat with her butt pressed against her heels, and she didn't dare to hide it:
"My lord, I once had a good sister in the palace. Because the tea she served to Princess Hexiao was too hot, Princess Hexiao ordered her to be beaten to death."
Qiu Yu entered the palace when she was only five years old. It takes several years to train the palace maids who enter the palace at such a young age. If they perform well, they will follow a certain nanny from the beginning, and they will have a bright future.
Those who perform poorly can only become ordinary palace maids when they reach the age of ten, starting from the lowest palace maid in the palace.
In a place like this, which is almost a training ground for future nuns in charge, intrigues are inevitable.
They are also allowed to scheming, because how to guard against being framed by others is also an essential skill for a nanny in charge.
Qiu Yu was only five years old when she entered the palace. To the palace maids who were several years older than her after entering the palace for a few years, she was like a lamb cake among wolves.
Being bullied during training, not eating or drinking, and having black and purple skin all the time except what is exposed through clothes are all very common.
