The aunt and sister-in-law were walking and chatting when they saw the eldest princess and Princess Lijun's aunt and sister-in-law also arriving.
The Princess of Li County greeted Yin Ruhua and said, "I have met the Crown Princess."
Yin Ruhua gave her a little help and said, "Princess Li County, you don't need to be polite."
The eldest princess curled her lips, but followed her intention and greeted her with a greeting, "Hello, Princess!"
Her attitude was cold and Yin Ruhua was certainly not enthusiastic either, so she nodded lightly.
Situ Yan also greeted Princess Lijun and called her "sister-in-law", but he didn't buy the princess and didn't even say hello.
"It seems that the third sister is really unfamiliar with me. When we met, she didn't even say hello to me, the eldest sister!" The eldest princess stared at her and snorted coldly.
Situ Yan was not merciful at all, and said: "Isn't it that eldest sister has forgotten what she did to me in the past? If you have forgotten, I don't mind reminding you."
Back then, because he was jealous that she could be raised at the knees of his mother, he actually pushed her into the lake and tried to drown her!
The eldest princess's expression suddenly turned sharp, but she could not help but sigh because of the kindness on her face: "I didn't do it on purpose. Back then, I went to my mother to apologize for this matter, but it has been so many years.
After that, I didn’t expect that I still couldn’t eliminate the resentment in the third sister’s heart.”
Situ Yan said coldly, "Sister, what I said is that I will never forget such a big thing as almost drowning in the lake!"
Princess Lijun looked at Yin Ruhua and said, "We still have to go to the Queen Mother's house to pay her respects. We will hand over the post to the Crown Princess another day for a visit. Today we will not disturb the Crown Princess and her third sister as they stroll through the Royal Garden."
Yin Ruhua nodded.
Princess Lijun and the eldest princess greeted each other and left.
As soon as they left, Situ Yan started to complain: "Situ Bing, she still thinks she is so noble. She was born a little earlier than us, and she will always dominate us! She will be ruthless if she doesn't like it, that is, I am the queen of the mother."
The big one has the confidence to compete with her. Like the Second Emperor Sister, which one of them has not suffered a lot at her hands, yet they have the nerve to come in front of me and put on the airs of the eldest sister. I really think I am the one I was back then, and I can still do it.
Don't let her bully you again!"
Yin Ruhua didn't have a good impression either: "You are indeed very arrogant. Even if you give me a gift, you are reluctant to do so. I don't know how to hide me behind the scenes."
"You don't have to pay attention to this kind of person. If you pay attention to her, you will lower your status!" Situ Yan snorted coldly.
Yin Ruhua smiled.
Situ Yan began to reveal the news, "Gong Guiren's life in the palace was not easy. Qian'er was even humiliated by the concubines in the palace!"
Yin Ruhua was stunned for a moment, "Is there such a thing? Who is so bold?"
"Yi concubine!" Situ Yan said: "She went over and gave Gong Guiren a beating!"
Yin Ruhua frowned: "Although Yi Bin is favored, she has nothing to do with her. Gong Guiren has Prince Li and the eldest princess. Is Yi Bin crazy and rushes out to be the leader? Is there any deep hatred between her and Gong Guiren?"
Situ Yan said: "How can the women in the palace live in peace? Gong Guiren used to rely on the son of Prince Youli to show off his power. Once, Yi concubine fell into her hands and was punished to kneel before the emperor.
In the garden, I heard that it rained all night and almost caught a fever and burned me to death."
Then he whispered: "I heard that Gong Guiren lived in the cold palace, and Yi Bi told people not to let her have an easy time. Gong Guiren lived in the cold palace for a year, and her face has aged by more than ten years. I heard that it was Gong Guiren's masterpiece."
Only then did Yin Ruhua understand: "So Yi Bin is breaking the pot, and she is going to go against Gong Guiren at all costs?"
"Probably, she came to the Queen Mother, and she said that she wanted to take refuge, but the Queen Mother has never been interested in these things. Besides, she has no value. The Queen wants status, heirs, and heirs.
Pampering is even more pampering. My father is currently resting in Fengqi Palace and will not go anywhere except Fengqi Palace. Mother is lacking in nothing at all, so what role can she play if she comes here?" Situ Yan said.
Yin Ruhua also listened happily to these things in the harem.
the other side.
On the way to Fengqi Palace, the eldest princess didn't look good on her face. She lowered her voice and cursed: "Situ Yan, this little maid, do you really think that you came from the queen's belly? How dare you treat me coldly! Back then, I was just
I accidentally touched her, and she went into the water! She was full of evil thoughts at a young age! And she even went so far as to complain to the queen, causing me to be punished so heavily! I haven't even settled the accounts with her yet.
, she really wants to show off to me, she really can do this for this cheap maid!"
Princess Lijun said nothing.
The eldest princess was also a little dissatisfied with this sister-in-law, "I'm not telling you, you are giving too much face to that little concubine. Who is she? What are your backgrounds with me, and you even saluted her?
Say hello to her, can she bear our courtesy? She won't be afraid of shortening her life!"
Princess Lijun said softly: "Sister, you have to know that this is the palace. How many eyes are watching in the palace? The prince and I have just come out, so we can only keep a low profile. Besides, it's just a courtesy, so what?"
How could she sincerely salute Yin Ruhua? She was just a concubine from a noble family! If she hadn't been lucky enough to enter the Prince's Mansion, she would not even be qualified to salute in front of her!
The eldest princess whispered: "That's true, but how could the prince think so highly of such a humble background that he even conferred the title of crown princess on her? The key is that the father actually agreed, too.
Don’t be afraid of making people laugh to death!”
The Princess of Li County shook her head, "We had already been detained at that time, and the details are not very clear. The County Prince also investigated her. She is just an ordinary concubine from a noble family, and there was nothing that attracted anyone's attention before she entered the Prince's Mansion!"
The eldest princess said: "Brother, has he checked clearly? If he is really worthless, how did he get the position of crown princess?"
Princess Lijun: "It's not that she has all her merits. Didn't you see that if you don't look at your family background and only look at your appearance, it will be difficult to find someone who is better looking than her in the whole capital."
The eldest princess sneered: "You do have a foxy face! Even women who are the same are feeling sorry for me, let alone men. The prince also pretends to be human and dog-like, saying that he is not close to women, so he is not the same
Are you fascinated by this foxy girl? She refuses to take a concubine and lets a newcomer in. This is simply a joke. Let’s see how long he can keep pretending! When the newcomer comes in, will this concubine still stand out?
She may have been packed up like that! With just a few pounds of bones, she really dares to let us salute her!"
"We're almost there." Princess Li County reminded.
The eldest princess then stopped talking, and the two arrived at Fengqi Palace not long after.
Empress Qin let them come in and sneak around for a while, then sent them over to see Gong Guiren.
