Chapter 322: Sadomasochistic love for your sister (twenty-seven)
"Li Si? Wei Jiu?"
Huo Wuniang followed the sound and looked over, her eyes becoming sharp.
She saw clearly that the people who sneered, not counting outsiders, were all powerful children in the capital.
One is Silang of the Li family, and his aunt is the Xianfei in the palace.
The other one is Jiulang of the Wei family. Although they are not from the same branch as De Fei, they are both from the Jingzhao Wei family.
According to the seniority in the clan, Wei Jiulang can be regarded as Concubine De's cheap nephew.
However, what really made Huo Wuniang wary was Wei Jiulang's other identity——
His father was Concubine Dong's ex-husband.
This ex-husband was originally a branch of the Wei family, and their branch had begun to decline.
Relying on the last bit of family influence, my ex-husband got a small official position in the Ministry of Etiquette.
His mother was a person who was good at sneaking around, and she tried every means to get into the family of the biological mother of Concubine De in the palace.
Yes, Concubine De is not a legitimate daughter, she is a concubine.
However, because her aunt had no daughter and she was born extremely well, she was recorded in her aunt's name for marriage purposes.
Concubine De missed her aunt, but she did not forget her biological mother.
The biological mother was just a concubine of her father, and her natal family was very humble.
After Concubine De entered the palace, she was not favored.
The Wei family is also very low-key and does not regard themselves as "foreign relatives".
This is true for the prince's real maternal family, not to mention relatives like Concubine De's biological mother's natal family who are not even on the stage.
Their family lived a good life relying on the Wei family, but they could not be called rich.
However, her ex-husband's mother felt that, after all, they were blood relatives, and Concubine De would always support her maternal ancestral family for the sake of her biological mother.
So, she worked hard to please her, and actually got in touch with Concubine De.
They were all of the same race, and her ex-husband's mother was respectful enough, so Concubine De regarded her ex-husband as a cousin who could be promoted.
It happened that the princess was getting married at that time, so her companions had completed their mission and it was time for them to go home.
As for Concubine De, she found a little clue and tried to make a match between Concubine Dong and her ex-husband.
Concubine Dong Guifei is just the daughter of a minor official, and her ex-husband is only a minor official, but her family name is noble.
Even the side branches are more noble than ordinary official families.
Concubine Dong Guifei was able to marry her ex-husband, which was already her first marriage after gilding the palace.
As for Concubine De, she is not abusing people, but truly "giving kindness".
Although Emperor Qing was somewhat dissatisfied, the relationship with the Yu Dynasty was relatively tense at that time, and he needed to coax the Yuan family's daughter in the palace.
He did not favor Queen Yuan, but promoted Yuan Zhaoyi.
Concubine Dong Guifei and so on were temporarily put aside by Emperor Qing.
Concubine Dong Guifei married into the Wei family, but within a year, Emperor Qing had dealt with the troubles at hand and began to pursue true love.
It was Concubine De who acted as a matchmaker and married Mr. Dong to Mr. Wei.
In line with the principle of "doing nothing for one thing and taking care of two masters", Emperor Qing gave Concubine De a hint.
De Fei:......
I was almost sick to death, but in order to please Emperor Qing, I still pinched my nose and found my mother's family.
After some manipulation, Concubine Dong became a monk, and her ex-husband married another man.
...Actually, looking back on the whole incident, Concubine Dong and her ex-husband were both innocent.
They are all pawns in the hands of superiors and cannot control their own destiny.
However, Dong quickly became a noble concubine and was favored by the emperor.
The world speculated with the greatest malice: Could it be that she had seduced His Majesty long ago? Otherwise, how could a sage like Emperor Qing bear so much infamy for a woman?
The wife of a strong official! Disobedient to the Queen Mother! Doting on concubines and destroying wives!
Every one of them looked like they were possessed by an evil spirit.
And Concubine Dong Guifei, the evil concubine, is the culprit.
Outsiders don't know the inside story, so they can just make random guesses. My ex-husband clearly knows the truth, but he still hates having fallen in love with Concubine Dong.
"Water-based beauty! Beauty is a disaster!"
"Humph, she is just a restless slut!"
My ex-husband did not dare to insult Concubine Dong Gui openly, but at home, he often spoke ill of her.
Of course, my ex-husband’s anger is not entirely without reason.
Their group became very embarrassed because of Concubine Dong.
Although Emperor Qing did not directly snatch his wife from his ex-husband, he understood everything.
My ex-husband had a bright green hat firmly stuck on his head.
He also has another name: coward.
Yes, he can’t even protect his own woman, so what is he if he isn’t a coward?
There are rumors and gossip outside, and the judgment of people around me. Living in such an environment all year round, it is difficult for my ex-husband not to become a pervert.
With the birth of children, this hatred continues to the next generation.
My ex-husband got married a few months earlier than Concubine Dong. After Concubine Dong entered the palace, she had a miscarriage and a premature fetus due to various reasons. Therefore, my ex-husband’s son was four years older than the Ninth Prince.
However, I don’t know if it’s due to bad luck, but my ex-husband’s son is the ninth in the family.
That is Wei Jiulang in front of him.
He looks to be in his twenties, has average appearance, and has a good temperament, but there is always a gloomy look between his brows.
And this kind of depression, when seeing Gu Qingcheng, who is as beautiful as a demon, is so strong that it is almost impossible to get rid of it!
In fact, the first person to sneer was Wei Jiulang.
"Oh, it turns out to be the little girl from the Huo family!"
"Could this be His Highness the Ninth Prince?"
Li Silang and Wei Jiulang's words were very frivolous. Although they got off their horses and saluted Gu Qingcheng according to the rules, the disdain and ridicule in their eyes could be seen by anyone who was not blind.
Huo Wuniang was not one to swallow her anger. She tightened her grip on the whip and said with a face as cold as a peony, "Li Silang! Wei Jiulang! You are so rebellious!"
"Oh! Where did we go crazy? Didn't we salute?"
"That's right! The Ninth Prince is indeed noble, but he cannot surpass His Majesty. The last time I met His Majesty in Beiyuan, His Majesty didn't even ask us to kneel down."
Li Silang and Wei Jiulang said in a strange tone.
They were not looking for trouble carelessly, they deliberately mentioned Emperor Qing in their words.
They seemed to be saying that Emperor Qing didn't even have that much arrogance, but a bald prince like Qingcheng was so arrogant. Is he more noble than His Majesty?
They directly pulled the emperor out. These two people just wanted to deliberately dig a hole and give the ninth prince a reputation as "unfilial and disobedient".
"You! You guys!"
How smart is Huo Wuniang? How could she not see the little plans of these two people?
She was anxious and angry, and didn't know what to say for a moment.
Gu Qingcheng suddenly spoke, pointing at Wei Jiulang, "What is your name?"
Wei Jiulang was stunned for a moment, and then he became more and more embarrassed.
He regarded the Ninth Prince as his lifelong enemy, but as a result, they didn't even know who he was.
No, the Ninth Prince did it on purpose!
Huo Wuniang clearly called her name just now.
Even if the Ninth Prince lost his memory, the marriage between Concubine Dong and Prince Wei cannot be erased.
The Wei family are also in the capital.
If Concubine Dong was really doing it for her son, she would tell the Ninth Prince everything in detail.
Therefore, even if the Ninth Prince really doesn't know him, he should be wary when he hears the surname "Wei".
But he, he——
With a breath in his chest, Wei Jiulang grinned, showing his sharp teeth, "Reporting to Your Highness, a certain surname is Wei, Jingzhao Wei family, ranked ninth in the family."
"Wei Jiulang!"
Gu Qingcheng pretended to think carefully, and then she showed a look of surprise, "Oh~~~"
She drew out her voice with a hint of sarcasm, "You are Mr. Wei!"
There is nothing wrong with this sentence itself.
However, anyone who knows the past between Concubine Dong Gui and her ex-husband knows that Gu Qingcheng’s words must have a deeper meaning.
Wei Jiulang was originally filled with resentment, and his temperament was the same as that of his biological father and ex-husband, who was extremely sensitive.
Gu Qingcheng had such a pretentious attitude that Wei Jiulang's long-suppressed anger finally burst out.
However, Wei Jiulang still retained a bit of sanity and did not have a direct attack.
He bit his back molars hard and smiled fiercely: "Yes! That's Wei Jiulang!"
"I heard that the Ninth Prince, Junyan, is a good person among men. Since we meet at Longshouyuan today, let's just play a polo match."
"I am the son of the Wei family. I think His Highness, the Ninth Prince, will not deny you this honor!"
Wei Jiulang also deliberately emphasized his identity.
He seemed to say again, dear, I am the son of your mother's ex-husband. As the only son of that bitch couple, should you compete with me?
You and I will fight each other for real.
Let’s see who is the “coward”!
Huo Wuniang is anxious!
The Ninth Prince is just a fragile baby. Even riding a horse can tear his thighs. Wouldn't it be even more worrying if he participated in a more intense game of polo?
On the court, the stick has no eyes.
Moreover, when boys and girls play polo, there are "literary ball" and "martial ball".
The former is to play in a disciplined manner according to the rules of polo.
As for the latter, it is unscrupulous, and it is not certain whether the polo stick is used to hit the ball or hit the horse's leg, or even hit someone.
After a "martial arts" game, there will always be a few injured.
If you don't do it right, you may become disabled!
The connection between Concubine Dong Guifei and the Wei family is known to all the dignitaries in Beijing.
Before Huo Wuniang confirmed her marriage to the Ninth Prince, she heard about that past incident.
After Emperor Qing granted the marriage, Grandma Huo told Huo Wuniang in detail the story of that year and the subsequent resentment of the Wei family against the Dong family.
There was also Wei Jiulang's malice towards the Ninth Prince, which Huo Wuniang, who was standing close by, could clearly see.
Under such circumstances, we still have to play polo together... the consequences are really unimaginable.
However, Huo Wuniang was worried, but she kept her grandmother's advice in mind - be careful!
She didn't say anything directly, but turned to look at Gu Qingcheng.
Her eyes were full of worry and anxiety, and she used her eyes to dissuade Gu Qingcheng: Jiulang, don't agree!
"Okay! Let's have a fight!"
Gu Qingcheng accepted Huo Wuniang's kindness, but did not accept her suggestion.
She smiled as brightly as a flower.
Li Silang and Wei Jiulang, the powerful disciples who were looking for trouble, were also dazzled by this beautiful smile.
It is said that the Ninth Prince looks like Concubine Dong Guifei. He is so beautiful as a young man, so how can Concubine Dong Guifei, a woman, be so powerful that she enchants the country and dazzles all living beings?
Suddenly, a group of teenagers had some understanding——
Don't blame Emperor Qing for snatching his wife, it's just that the Dong family is so beautiful.
