Chapter 377

How to get this idea?

On one side is Xiaoqian. Regardless of her relationship with Doudou, she is also the princess of Guning Kingdom, and the other side is the princess of Fuyang Kingdom. Neither of them can offend.

Seeing that Su Muer was silent, Princess Yongping held up her salted fish and said calmly:

"Since the princess is in such a difficult situation, then I will think of a way for the princess."

Hearing that she had a solution, everyone turned their attention to her.

She winked and then said:

"Why don't I compete with this princess of Guning Kingdom? You can play piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, or martial arts. It's up to you to choose."

Doudou looked at her and snorted coldly,

"You clearly know that Sister Xiaoqian doesn't understand anything, but you still want to use this method to compete? This is obviously bullying. I don't think you need to compete. I won't take a fancy to you. Don't have any delusions.

Already."

"You are presumptuous."

Princess Yongping suddenly shouted angrily,

"I, the majestic princess of Fuyang Kingdom, have fallen in love with you, and you actually rejected me in front of so many people? Where did you want me to put my face? Besides, who told you to come up and fight me just now? Otherwise, I would have watched.

Do you want to fall in love with you? Since you provoked me first, there is no reason to refuse me. Anyway, I won't marry you unless you have it, but you are still young now, so I can wait for you for a few years."

Her words made everyone present boo. This girl was really direct in her speech, without any girlish reserve.

The emperor's brows began to frown. He glanced at Ye Shihan and Su Mu'er, and then said:

"Uncle Emperor, since the princess of Fuyang Kingdom and the princess of Guning Kingdom have taken a fancy to Su Liyang together, you should handle this matter behind closed doors. Once it's done, just tell me the result, otherwise it won't continue like this.

, I’m afraid that my concubine selection ceremony today will be interrupted.”

Ye Shihan also felt that the matter between Doudou and these two women could not be resolved immediately, so he stood up and clasped his fists and said:

"I understand. I will let them return home first. This matter will be discussed later."

Princess Yongping didn't say anything else this time, but she directly requested the emperor's order.

"Please allow me to live in the palace. I like the young prince and I will not marry him unless I marry him. So I have to get along with him day and night so that he can develop feelings for me."

Hearing this, Doudou hurriedly spoke to stop him.

"No, you have to live in the royal post house or the palace, not my house."

"Then where does she live?"

Princess Yongping pointed at Xiaoqian and asked. Xiaoqian stayed in the palace yesterday. In order not to embarrass Doudou, Xiaoqian said directly:

"I stayed at the palace yesterday because the princess and I are old acquaintances. Today I plan to stay at the royal inn or the palace."

"Then I don't care. You stayed one night in the palace, and I also want to stay one night. I am the princess of Fuyang Kingdom. Fuyang Kingdom and Eastern Jin Kingdom are friendly neighboring countries. The emperor of Eastern Jin Kingdom will not refuse to agree to this.

It’s just a small request, I believe the prince and princess won’t refuse me.”

Ye Shihan frowned and was about to refuse, when Su Muer stretched out her hand and pulled the corner of his clothes, and then said:

"Okay, the palace is so big, and it can be lively with just a few more people. Why don't you come and live with Xiaoqian? I'm pregnant these days and I'm bored at home, so you all can come and keep me company."

Hearing this, Doudou opened his mouth in shock. Why did his mother agree to let this woman live in the palace?

Princess Yongping was very happy to kneel down and thank her, "Thank you, Princess, for your support."

She glanced at Doudou and Xiaoqian with the corner of her mouth raised, a look of victory on her face.

Therefore, Xiaoqian and Princess Yongping were sent to the palace together, and the emperor's concubine selection ceremony continued.

Next, Princess Pingyang of Changping Kingdom and Princess Yunxiang of Qingcheng Kingdom each presented their own dancing skills.

After the performances of the princesses from neighboring countries were over, it was the turn of the girls from the palace ministers of the Eastern Jin Dynasty to take the stage. Now Sun Mengmeng was fully prepared.

She was dressed in red and walked slowly with her hands on her body.

The red gauze half-covered her face, revealing a pair of smart eyes, which made her look even more mysterious.

She did not let anyone tell her her name, just to give the emperor a different feeling.

She touched the ground with one foot and danced gracefully, flying like a butterfly among the flowers, and wandering in the fairyland like a drop of water.

Ruoxianruoling's dancing posture is definitely one of the best in the capital, and even the emperor was a little stunned.

The eyes covered by the red gauze looked at the emperor from time to time, revealing a trace of intelligent gaze.

After the dance ended, the emperor kept nodding and praising,

"Okay, I didn't expect that there is such a beautiful dancing girl in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. May I ask whose daughter this is?"

The corners of Sun Mengmeng's mouth raised slightly, and her face was full of confidence.

She raised her slender hands and slowly pulled off the red gauze on her face. A face that was so handsome that people were mesmerized appeared in front of everyone. Everyone was stunned for a while.

Su Mu'er and Xiao Yuanyuan, who were sitting in the crowd, looked at each other. They didn't realize that this person was Sun Mengmeng. No wonder the emperor didn't notice either.

After the veil was completely removed, she bowed and saluted,

"You've made a fool of yourself in front of the emperor."

The emperor looked at her in surprise,

"It turns out to be Sister Sun. Who do I think she is? I didn't expect that Sister Sun not only has good cooking skills, but also dances so gracefully. It really opened my eyes."

Sun Mengmeng shyly pursed her lips and chuckled,

"The emperor has rewarded you. As long as the emperor allows me to accompany him, I will be satisfied. I have loved dancing and working in the kitchen since I was a child, so I am willing to work as a cook and maiko for the emperor alone for the rest of my life."

These words really won the hearts of the people, even the emperor was moved, but Su Muer felt chills all over after hearing it.

It seems that this Sun Mengmeng is really what Xue'er said. She went to the kitchen to learn cooking and dance skills all just to show off in front of the emperor.

But this is just her guess, and she cannot say it in front of others.

The emperor was so happy that he grinned from ear to ear, "Thank you for your hard work, Sister Sun, please go down and rest first!"

This shout from Sister Sun made Sun Mengmeng's red lips slightly closed and her pink face turned slightly red.

She bowed her knees and bowed, then slowly withdrew.

The concubine selection ceremony didn't end until nearly noon. All the official ladies also showed off their talents and wanted to show off in front of the emperor.

At noon, everyone will have a lunch together outside Qianqing Palace. After the lunch, the emperor will order someone to read out the imperial edict. This is also the moment that everyone is most looking forward to.

Sun Mengmeng actually took the initiative to sit at the same table with Su Muer and Xiao Yuanyuan, her pretty face was full of confidence.

She did not lift the chopsticks, but looked at Su Muer with a handkerchief in her hand, smiled lightly, and then said:

"The princess is really lucky. She has two daughters-in-law at once. From now on, she will have someone to take care of her."

Looking at her triumphant face, Su Muer pursed her lips and chuckled,

"Miss Sun is also a good tactic. She knows that the emperor is still young and mentally immature, so she uses dancing and cooking skills to please him. It's really powerful."

"It's inappropriate for the princess to speak like this. To please the emperor is what all women in the world want to do. It depends on whether the emperor likes it. Besides, although the emperor has only been on the throne for a short time, he is already a sixteen-year-old man. He knows what he likes.

woman."

Xiao Yuanyuan snorted coldly and said:

"Even if the emperor likes her, he will not marry a woman who is six or seven years older than him."

Sun Mengmeng chuckled disdainfully, "The eldest princess is wrong! Didn't the emperor also like the eldest princess very much at the beginning? If the eldest princess hadn't refused, she would have been made a concubine by the emperor. I am the same age as the eldest princess.

, I know how to feel sorry for the emperor, why not be with the emperor?"

Listening to her irrelevant words, Xiao Yuanyuan glared angrily, while Su Muer breathed a sigh of relief.

Does Sun Mengmeng really think that the palace is heaven? Doesn't she know that not many harem women in the past have been able to die a good death? It seems that she is another poor woman.

But with her mentality, she definitely doesn't want to enter the palace. It seems that this woman should be on guard.

But the emperor didn't think so. After Sun Mengmeng's dance ended, he no longer had the intention to look at anyone else. Her dance kept lingering in front of his eyes.

Therefore, after the royal luncheon, the ceremony of reading out the imperial edict began. Except for the two pregnant women and Ye Shihan, everyone else knelt on the ground, waiting to receive the edict.

Eunuch Liu, who came to announce the edict, looked delighted. He spread out the edict and said loudly:

"As a gift from heaven, the emperor issued an edict saying that I am in a very good mood today. I specially designate Sun Mengmeng, the daughter of Sun Chao, as the Jade Concubine, Princess Pingyang as the Yang Concubine, Princess Yunxiang as the Xiang Concubine, and all the others as concubines.

, the consort ceremony will be held in three days, I appreciate this!"

After hearing this imperial edict, Sun Mengmeng's face was immediately filled with pride, and Sun Chao's face was also full of joy.

If his daughter becomes a noble concubine, his status in the court will rise rapidly. When he returns home and tells his father about it, he will definitely be happy.

After reading out the imperial edict, Eunuch Liu said directly:

"Concubine Jade, please move to Xianfu Palace. Your Majesty will allow you to sleep with her tonight."

It was such an honor for the emperor to have granted so many women titles and only allowed her to serve as his bed partner. Sun Mengmeng immediately received the order to express her gratitude.

Before leaving, she looked back at Xiao Yuanyuan proudly. She finally defeated her once. Even if she was a princess personally named by the emperor, it was not as important as the woman sleeping next to the emperor.

She was confident that she could win the emperor's heart, and her ambitions were more than that. She wanted to be the queen, she wanted to be in charge of the harem, and she wanted to make the Sun family proud of their ancestors.

In this concubine selection ceremony, not only the emperor but also Su Liyang made a lot of money.

At this time, in the palace, Xiaoqian and Princess Yongping were standing in the courtyard with their arms akimbo, looking at each other, with disdain for each other in their eyes.

Xiaoqian was confident in the relationship between Doudou and her, so she was full of disdain for this woman who barged in.

Princess Yongping was full of disdain for the woman in front of her who didn't know how to read a lot of Chinese characters. Anyway, she won in both chess, calligraphy, painting, and martial arts, so she thought that the woman in front of her was not a good person at all.

any threat.

The palace also became restless because of the presence of these two women.

Under such circumstances, Xiao Yuanyuan still moved in resolutely. She liked the excitement and even watched the excitement. Living in the princess mansion was boring anyway. Watching these two little girls noisy here might make people feel happy.

Much younger.

The two pregnant women sat under the locust tree in the yard, eating pastries and chatting while watching the two women pinch each other like two roosters.

"Sister, who do you think Doudou likes?"

"I don't know. Doudou hasn't come back since they arrived at noon. Liu Hai said that he moved to Yunjun Camp. It seems that he knew what kind of life he was going to face and chose to escape."

Hearing this, Xiao Yuanyuan couldn't help but smile.

"Doudou is like his father back then, but no matter how hard Sun Mengmeng and I fought back then, the woman in my heart is always you, my sister, but I don't know who Doudou really has in his heart."

Su Muer sighed helplessly,

"Doudou is still young. Although he has experienced a lot, and although he is tall, he still has the mentality of a child. He still doesn't understand what liking and love are, so it is too early to evaluate this matter now."

"What about Xiaoqian? He still has very deep feelings for Xiaoqian."

"He is more dependent on Xiaoqian. As for whether his feelings are genuine, I, a mother, don't know."

Xiao Yuanyuan simply waved her hand,

"It's better to let Doudou marry them all. It would be nice to have so many people serving you, sister."

"If Wang Biao marries someone else, would you be willing?"

"Of course I don't want to. He is a consort and dares to marry someone else. I don't want his life."

"That's right. Which of these two women do you think can accommodate other women serving the same husband? If you let them live under the same roof and serve the same man together, it would be strange if the roof of the house would not be overturned.

Woolen cloth."

This question is really a difficult question, and Xiao Yuanyuan also thinks this is reasonable.

"Then what should we do? They can't continue like this, right?"

Su Muer helplessly pulled the corner of her mouth and smiled,

"Of course you can't. Let's take it one step at a time. This Princess Yongping will not live here forever. When one day she feels bored and bored, she will naturally leave."

Now that she is pregnant, she really has no time to take care of too many things. She can only wait for the development of the situation.

In the Xianfu Palace, Sun Mengmeng was sitting in the large Huaqing Pool. This was a place where only the imperial concubine and the emperor could come. Her face was full of pride. She was confident that the emperor, a man who had never had contact with a woman, would be able to handle him.

He received it obediently.

The palace maid Chun Hua came into the house to call her,

"Your Majesty, Eunuch Liu has just sent word that the emperor will finish handling state affairs while he still has a stick of incense."

It seems that the emperor cannot wait any longer.

It's no wonder that the emperor, who has never experienced anything between men and women, is very fond of this sister Sun. How can he not be impatient.

After washing, the maids prepared a set of water-pink night clothes for her. She sat in front of the bronze mirror and dressed up carefully, and then began to wait for the emperor.

But the time for a stick of incense passed and the emperor did not come.

The time for two sticks of incense passed and the emperor still did not come.

After waiting for half an hour, the emperor still didn't come.

Sun Mengmeng was a little anxious for a moment,

"Chunhua, go find out why the emperor hasn't come yet?"

Chunhua retreated in response, and Sun Mengmeng felt a little unhappy in her heart.

After a while, Chunhua hurried back,

"Your Majesty, it's not good. I heard that Concubine Yang suddenly had a fever and the Emperor went to her."

"What?"

Sun Mengmeng stood up angrily. Princess Pingyang was still lively during the day, but she had a fever at night?

She snorted angrily,

"Let's go and see Yangfu Palace."

"Mother, you can't."

Chunhua hurriedly stopped her and said, "Your Majesty has just been named a noble concubine. Don't be so impatient. You can easily be caught. In this palace, it's no different than at home. Everything must be based on the overall situation."

After all, Chunhua is a girl brought by her parents' family, so she is relatively calm when things happen.

Sun Mengmeng sat back on the soft couch again and said angrily:

"Then what should I do? Could it be that all my careful preparations to serve the Emperor were in vain?"

Chunhua pondered for a while, pursed her lips and shook her head.

"No, the emperor is just worried that something will happen to Concubine Yang. After all, she is the princess of Changping Kingdom. If something happens, it will easily cause disputes between the two countries, so it is appropriate for the emperor to go and have a look."

Chunhua's words seemed to make sense, but Sun Mengmeng was still unwilling to give in. She bit her lip tightly and kept tugging at the handkerchief in her hand. It seemed that if she wanted to gain a foothold in the palace, she really had to get rid of these unsightly women.

The palace has been extremely lively these days, but it's just a few women who are making trouble non-stop. Not only Dou Dou didn't come back, but Ye Shihan also excused himself from being busy in the army.

So the matter of sending messages between the military camp and the palace was left to Liu Hai.

Today, Liu Hai had just brought back a wild turtle to Su Mu'er, and Princess Yongping pulled him to ask someone to carry the message.

"General Liu, give this to Su Liyang, and tell him that if he doesn't come back, I will die in this palace."

These words were really scary. Liu Hai looked at the salted fish in his hand and couldn't help but want to laugh.

Xiaoqian came to Liu Hai holding a letter,

"General Liu, please give this letter to Doudou."

Liu Hai held the salted fish in his left hand and the letter in his right hand, with a look of helplessness on his face.

Su Mu'er was supported by the girl Liu Ye and walked out. She glanced at her bangs and couldn't help covering her mouth and snickering.

"Tomorrow is Doudou's birthday. Tell the prince and Doudou to come back. I will order someone to prepare a birthday party for them."

Liu Hai nodded hurriedly,

"My subordinates know. If the princess doesn't mention it, I'm afraid the prince and the young highness will forget about it. They are busy training new recruits recently and have no time to take care of it."

"My son's birthday and my mother's day, even if he can forget it, I, the mother, will never forget it."

Speaking of this, she touched her belly, and a cute little life like Doudou appeared here, and her heart instantly became very warm.

Su Liyang will be back tomorrow, and Princess Yongping hurriedly summons the girl to take her out, saying that she is going to buy him his favorite food, as if she knows what he likes to eat.

Looking at her back, Xiao Yuanyuan was a little worried.

"Do you think she really fell in love with Doudou that easily?"

Su Mu'er naturally thought about this issue for a long time. Even if it is love at first sight, girls should be more reserved. It is really rare for Princess Yongping to take such initiative.

After a moment of silence, she shook her head and said:

"It's hard to tell whether she likes Doudou or not, but it can be seen that she wants to stay in the palace, and she wants to stay in the Eastern Jin Dynasty. This is very suspicious."
