The sixteenth princess, who was already disgusting and gentle, fawned over Queen Mother Jiang and got all kinds of benefits.
This time Princess Rouzhen said she wanted to file a complaint, and she immediately got angry again. She originally asked her sisters to push her away, but then she threw the group away and turned back.
When he walked to Princess Rouzhen, he raised his hand and slapped her: "How dare you? If you dare to complain, believe it or not, I will make you walk around without food."
Princess Rouzhen was stunned by the slap, but she cried louder and louder, saying: "Sister, you are bullying me, I, I, I want to tell my mother, my father, my grandmother..."
Although Princess Sixteen scolded her and hit her, she was still really afraid that Princess Rouzhen would complain. After all, among the sisters, no one was as favored as her.
At that moment, I was so anxious that I jumped on my feet and stretched out my hand to push him: "How dare you..."
"Someone, someone, come..."
Rouzhen was followed by several palace attendants, and when she saw her master being beaten, she rushed forward to protect her. Several princesses watching the excitement behind her were also afraid of making things worse, so they hurriedly stepped forward to break up the fight.
He didn't want to flirt with her, but he knocked Princess Rouzhen out.
She was born petite, and she couldn't stand firm when someone bumped into her. She brushed against the palace wall, and immediately a large drop of blood appeared on her pretty face.
The princesses got into a fight and got into trouble, so they thought they couldn't handle it.
Although Empress Dowager Jiang did not go to war over the quarrel between the girls' families, she left the matter to Empress Wang.
Princess Rouzhen was raised by the Empress Wang as if she were her own child. When she was entrusted with her, these princesses became even worse.
Although the walls in the palace are better made than those in private houses, there are still some stones and sand at the bottom.
The princess's face is so delicate that it won't land well if you rub it there.
While the imperial doctor was cleaning the wound with the medicinal juice, he couldn't help but sigh when he saw the red flesh exposed on the face. There was so much hatred that the person's skin was rubbed off.
Princess Rouzhen in the room was crying so hard that she couldn't breathe. She asked the imperial doctor directly: "Am I disfigured? Will there be scars on my face in the future? Will I look ugly in the future..."
Several princesses were kneeling outside so well that they didn't dare to snort in anger. The sixteenth princess who committed the crime was even more frightened and trembling when she heard the cries.
She didn't want to ruin Rouzhen's appearance. She just wanted to teach her a lesson and didn't ask her to file a complaint. How could she have known she would commit such a big disaster.
The imperial doctor did not say clearly whether it would disfigure her face or leave scars. He only said that she should live a good life and recover.
Princess Rouzhen's crying became louder and louder. She hugged Queen Wang until she was tired from crying, and then she fell asleep.
Several princesses knelt outside the main hall of the middle palace for three full hours. The king and empress did not do anything to them. They were grounded for a month and punished by having their female precepts copied ten times before letting them go.
Princess Rouzhen hurt her face and never left the palace. No matter how much Empress Dowager Jiang liked her, she couldn't like her anymore after seeing her terrifying face. Although she felt distressed, it was just for giving her some clothes, nothing more.
Within a few days, she was forgotten.
Empress Dowager Jiang stopped summoning her, and the sound of crying could be heard from time to time in Princess Rouzhen's palace, sometimes day and night. The palace servants in her palace were full of complaints when they mentioned this matter.
Originally, he looked like he could be a master who could rise to great heights, but now that he is in this situation, how can he still fly?
Princess Rouzhen was embarrassed, so she naturally avoided the marriage.
When the Prince of Xiliang came to Kyoto in September to propose to marry the princess, Empress Dowager Jiang had not yet chosen a candidate. Emperor Chengxing had given birth to a litter of daughters, but not many of them were useful.
Either she is not good-looking, too weak, or too straight-tempered. What Empress Dowager Jiang wants is someone who can handle Xiliang carefully, who can win over the prince of Xiliang and obtain information about Xiliang.
He must be a well-rounded person who can tell everything. Among all the granddaughters, none of them like her. The only one who likes her, but it hurts her face. Let alone a marriage, she is afraid that she will be honored in Kyoto.
It is not easy to find a marriage partner in this family.
When Princess Rouzhen's face was ruined, Queen Mother Jiang didn't take it seriously, but now she sighed: "It's just the right time for her face to be ruined."
The eunuch in charge who was personally serving him said, "No, if it can't be ruined, the marriage will definitely fall on her. It's a pity that she doesn't have this luck..."
Regardless of whether Princess Rouzhen's face was ruined at the right time or not, the marriage issue still escaped her.
In mid-October, the prince of Xiliang married the thirteenth princess, bid farewell to the emperor of Dali, and left for Xiliang.
Princess Rouzhen took advantage of seeing off her bride and found the time to run to Yipinju.
She had not been out of the palace for several months. She sat down on the rose chair, crossed her legs and let out a long sigh.
Song Qinghuan folded the account book in his hand, looked up and saw that she was still wearing a veil on her face, raised her eyebrows and said, "Is your face really disfigured?"
Princess Rouzhen reached out and took off the veil, brought her cheek to Song Qinghuan, pointed to the red meat on her face: "Look, I spent a lot of money this time."
Song Qinghuan took a look and found that although the wounds on his face had long since scabbed off, there was indeed a large red patch on his right cheek.
She stretched out her hand and touched it, and saw that it was severe but not too deeply injured. She turned around and found a porcelain bottle in the eight treasures behind her, and threw it away casually.
"Apply it on your face every day or two, and you may be able to return to your original state after two or three months."
As he spoke, he raised his eyebrows again: "You are a young girl, and your thoughts are far-reaching. If I hadn't heard about the marriage, I would have thought that your sisters were so fierce that they even disfigured their faces.
You can do anything like this."
Princess Rouzhen smeared some of the paste in the porcelain bottle onto the back of her hand, sniffed it, and snorted twice.
"If I don't do something cruel, I'm afraid I'll be the one heading to Xiliang today. You should see me off outside the city now."
After saying that, she asked Texue to fetch water for her to cleanse her face. She corked the porcelain bottle tightly and put it away, and then said: "The war in Liaodong is about to begin."
Speaking of Liaodong, Song Qinghuan couldn't bear to look down on the account books. Ever since Song Youyu went to Liaodong with Xiao Ci, Xiao Ci had really sent a letter every five days regardless of rain or shine. What he sent was not necessarily full of words and pictures, but more of it.
Something that was casually stuffed into an envelope.
She took a carved red lacquer box and filled it full, but her brother was stunned and didn't send a word to her home.
Hearing Rouzhen talk about it, he asked, "Where did you hear this gossip?"
Princess Rouzhen chuckled: "No matter where I heard it from, I should have come back years ago."
Then he said, "I remember that your birthday is on the winter solstice. This year, the Queen Mother and the saints will go to the star observatory to worship the sky. I will also go on that day to celebrate your birthday."
Song Qinghuan didn't even look at her and refused: "No, I'm not familiar with you.
