The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 138

[138. Chapter 138 Undercurrent]

“Master, are you okay?” Mo Lan looked at Mu Xiyao’s swollen calf in distress and kneaded her gently.

After cleaning it, Mu Xiyao took Huilan and handed over the fragrant fruit, and returned nonchalantly. “Don’t worry, it’s okay.” She bit down on the cold juice and slid down her throat, making her mentally divided.

“Where’s Chunlan? Can you hire a doctor? Send her a box of the ointment that His Highness gave her last time.”

The little girl knelt under the sun with her arms twisted for nearly half an hour. There must be burns on the face too.

Zong Zhengying’s torture method has made the harem yin secret 100% vicious. Princess Dawei is nothing but a poisonous woman who has been corrupted by the deep palace.

“Master, why do you have to be so patient? Your Highness knows that, and you will definitely not be happy to see it.” He just curtly bowed his knees for half a cup of tea, and if it was His Highness, he would never tolerate this happening.

Mu Xiyao tilted her head to look at the lotus pond outside the window. The lotus flowers inside were already in full bloom, the leaves were wrinkled and drooping, and the entire pond had no scenery at all.

“Mo Lan, you can’t count on His Highness in everything. Besides, His Highness should not intervene in this matter.” When Zong Zhenglin left Shengjing, she was “bullied” to the head. If His Highness Sixth Highness came back, he hurriedly vented his anger for her, which would surely make Emperor Yuancheng unhappy.

“Don’t underestimate the woman who was raised in the harem. If she can choose this time, she still has a vision.” Zong Zhenglin had already suppressed her once, and once again, His Highness Sixth Highness lost his morality.

“The more arrogant the Fourth Princess, the better. Your master, I am afraid that she will look ahead and look back, and she will not be able to be cruel.”

Everyone followed the rules. This battle of the women’s family is a long-term entanglement. .

Mu Xiyao has always felt that it is a good way to combine hardness and softness. This “gang” has been played, and “soft” seems to be not practiced enough. Finally, a very strong Zong Zhengying came. She had to cooperate with her no matter what?

With the pity in Emperor Yuancheng’s heart, how much “bad news” does he need to make him completely disappointed with the fourth daughter of the emperor? Mu Xiyao’s eyes were dark and shining, and she began to think hard in her heart… the

palace, the imperial study.

Emperor Yuancheng looked at Zong Zhenghan, who was standing in front of him, and nodded in appreciation, “You have done a good job recently. Is there any reward you want?”

This question was asked casually, but Zong Zhenghan did not dare to be careless. “Imperial Father, it is a matter of your own accord for the sons and ministers to do errands, and there is no need for additional awards. The other brothers do well on errands, and the royal father also praises them. This is enough to encourage the sons and ministers to keep improving.”

“The eighth brother is very true. Father, the sons are looking forward to sharing your worries for you, so you must be careful when you are on duty.” At the moment, the crown prince is alone in Shengjing, and without Zong Zhengming and Zong Zhenglin’s stumble, this is a bit light to say.

“Second brother has been really diligent in the past few days. It turns out that he has made progress again.” Zong Zhengchun is now weak, and the barefooted are not afraid of wearing shoes, and the treatment of the prince is not as good as before. The old enemy is still shouting in front of him, how can he be at ease as an idle prince?

This is to live with his head in his head. Once Zong Zhenghui succeeds to the throne, the first person to be killed, if he doesn’t think about it, is definitely himself who has sang opposite him for more than ten years. This made Zong Zhengchun unable to relax at all times, and hated Mu Xiyao even more.

Yuan Chengdi’s words attracted everyone’s guns and arrows.

These His Royal Highnesses do not want to suppress dissidents all the time, and the emperor is extremely dissatisfied with this.

“Okay.” Emperor Yuan Cheng’s memorial fell on the table, interrupting the prince’s words. “I’m asking about the eighth, are you all the eighth?” This was a faint sign of anger.

The prince hurriedly pleaded guilty, squinting at Zong Zhengchun’s unconvinced stupid face, although his face was interrupted by Yuan Chengdi, he was very happy in his heart.

“It’s fine if you don’t want to reward him. I’ll keep it in mind for you, and I’ll reward you when the time comes.” Emperor Yuan Cheng looked at this young son and was still very satisfied.

“Old eighth, since your mother and concubine passed away, your house has been much deserted. Now that I mention that I have asked the imperial concubine to choose a virtuous woman for you to enter the mansion, it is good that someone knows the cold and the heat and takes more care.” Ping Xiuyi passed away , This little son is hard to see smile. If it weren’t for the peaceful expression on his face, Emperor Yuancheng would have thought that he would have another son who looked like the sixth son.

Although Zong Zhenglin was much better than before, he was still colder than others. If it wasn’t for the eldest son under his knees and the Mu family’s girl making a fuss in the house, I’m afraid he could be a vegetarian and recite the scriptures now!

Emperor Yuancheng attached great importance to his son’s position on both sides of the courtyard. With Mu Xiyao as a successful example, the emperor planned to put a decent woman in his younger son’s house, but he had no time to choose, so he could only tell the imperial concubine to be careful.

Zong Zhenghan had long felt that there was a shortage of people in the backyard, and now Emperor Yuancheng opened his mouth first, and he was naturally happy to accept it, and quickly thanked the emperor for his grace.

After leaving the imperial study, the prince patted Zong Zhenghan on the shoulder, as if envious.

“Old eighth, your treatment is about to catch up with the sixth boy. Among our brothers, only his concubine is hand-picked by the father, and the rest of the women are just harem ladies who are pleasing to the eye. It was only when people took care of them that they moved into the mansion. But this time, your concubine is an exception. The imperial concubine chose the person personally, which shows that the father and the emperor value you.”

“Speaking of the Namu family, the father and the emperor personally chose the person. The people are different. Tsk tsk…” The prince’s wicked eyes were not concealed, and it was clear at a glance that he had plans for Zong Zhenglin’s side concubine.

“What did the prince say? The emperor was only watching his brother lose his mother and concubine, so he took special care.”

Zong Zhenghan didn’t seem to understand the provocation in his words, so he just followed. If Zong Zhenglin wants to be so easy to deal with, Zong Zhengchun will not be standing right now, so he will be unhappy. Wanting to ask him to trouble the other party out of jealousy, the prince seems to think he is stupid.

As for the Namu Clan, he focused on investigating for a while. The woman’s ability is also easy to move. If the side concubine selected this time can have half of Mu Shi’s skills, he can also rest in peace in the back house of Zong Zhenghan.

Seeing that he pretended to be confused and couldn’t take the bait, the prince snorted coldly in his heart, but continued to exchange warm greetings on his face.

Zong Zhengchun is hopeless, and the remaining brothers are the fifth brother Zong Zhengming, the sixth brother Zong Zhenglin, and the eighth brother Zong Zhenghan. Among these people, only Zong Zhenghan is still immature and may be able to try to win over. The other two have hardened their wings, and they look like they are not taught, and they clearly have no heart to surrender.

Zong Zhenghan is younger than the prince, but his eyes are much more vicious. Seeing that the prince was suddenly silent, he didn’t speak first.

Zong Zhenghui’s ability is mediocre, especially jealous of the virtuous. How can such a person be a prince? If he hadn’t taken advantage of his son-in-law, Emperor Yuancheng would probably be inferior to Zong Zhengyun. That trash is now tinkering with two rare things in farming in the Ministry of Industry, which was valued by Emperor Yuan Cheng and ordered by the Ministry of Industry to try to promote. From this point of view, Concubine Shu’s mother is precious by virtue of her son, and she still has some days to be pampered.

After this day, the news of the imperial concubine’s selection of side concubines for the eighth prince spread all over Shengjing. After the well-known Mu Clan in the Sixth Prince’s Mansion, who can rise to the top and become rich in one day?

While the major families in Shengjing were rushing to get to know each other and vying for the position of the prince’s concubine, a very secret conversation was taking place in the Helian mansion of the century-old family.
