The Beloved Imperial Consort - Chapter 143
[143. Chapter 143 Negotiation]
“Break your mind”? In this matter, Helian Minmin’s brain is very useful. She was about to bluntly put Helianwei Rui in the mansion of the Eighth Prince.
Mu Xiyao felt that this transaction was a bit of a disadvantage. Helian Minmin dared to bring it up so clearly, and it had a lot to do with her returning to her parents’ home this time. Someone should have mentioned it behind the scenes, otherwise this woman wouldn’t let go of her grudges so easily.
“Since it’s all for the peace of the house, there is no reason for the concubine to shirk.” No matter what she said or not, things were always done. This time, it will be a bit of a loss on the bright side, and I will find it next time. And on the side of the Sixth Highness, if she pretends to be pitiful and shows weakness, the benefits should be enough to recover the “loss” caused by being too generous this time.
I really want to talk about what kind of loss, but it’s that Mu Yaonu didn’t take advantage of it, and she had to use her brain to drive away the woman she didn’t like.
Helian got her straightforward reply, and he was satisfied and walked away with everyone.
Indeed, Mu Xiyao was still afraid of the woman who also won the Phoenix lottery as her, and her mother was right. The negotiation went unexpectedly smoothly, and Helian Minmin was extremely satisfied with the result. One mountain cannot tolerate two tigers? snort! When Helian Weirui is resolved, she and Mu Xiyao are back to the bridge again, the road back to the road, how will we live next?
“Wei Zhen, keep an eye on Helian’s house. Lord Helian should be very busy these days.” Mu Xiyao was reliable. She has always kept her promises.
“Master, why don’t you tell His Highness about this? The Helian family is not easy to deal with.” Wei Zhen was sitting in the corner just now, listening to the conversation between the two women clearly. What Master Yao wanted to do, he was a little uncertain. His Royal Highness should be extremely displeased that Concubine Helian actually urged her master to do this.
“Of course the Helian family is not a soft persimmon. However, some things cannot be achieved without a solid foundation. A little flaw is enough to change the whole situation.”
How to find this flaw, Mu Xiyao decided to wait and watch Lord Helian first . .
Zong Zhenglin took Yan Chengzhou to walk outside the camp at will, and turned halfway up the mountain to see Zong Zhengming, dressed in apricot and white brocade robes, sitting anywhere. With a horizontal flute on his lips, he heard the ancient tune of “Liu Shang” in his ears, which is particularly moving in this deep mountain.
Mu Xiyao prefers “Liu Shang”, and every time she plays the guqin, she will never miss this song. Now Zong Zhengming is also in love with “Flowers”, and Zong Zhenglin’s eyes flashed with brilliance.
It was the first time that Yan Chengzhou listened to the music played by His Royal Highness the Fifth, and it was very pleasant. Although he is not proficient in rhythm and rhythm, he can still hear it. The fifth highness seems to have a good foundation. This tune is straight into the hearts of the people, and I always feel that there is a sustenance in it.
In the blink of an eye, Zong Zhenglin saw that Yan Chengzhou was fascinated, and his eyes were even darker.
“Sixth brother.” Zong Zhengming finished playing the tune and turned to greet the visitor politely. He had noticed it as early as when he came, but he did not intend to interrupt this ancient song.
“The fifth brother is in good spirits.” He was here alone at night and chose such an elegant pastime.
Zong Zhengming held the flute in his hand to a flower and stood up on the ground with one hand. Roughly sorting out the brocade robe, he smiled extremely handsomely.
“This song is suitable for the occasion. The old man once praised “Liu Shang” as a lofty and elegant song, and when nothing happens, this is the only song that can be played.” Zong Zhengming said regretfully. I couldn’t hear that person playing the qin, otherwise it would be a celebrity affair.
An old friend? The curvature of Zong Zhenglin’s mouth gradually disappeared. When did Mu Xiyao’s woman become an old friend of Zong Zhengming?
“Tomorrow is early for the camp. If fifth brother is having a good time, it’s better to rest early.” Zong Zhenglin nodded his leave, put his hands behind his back, and walked with Yan Chengzhou in a hurry.
On the way down the mountain, His Highness Sixth Highness glanced at the commander of the guards who were waiting seriously beside him, and spoke lightly. “The song is good?”
Yan Chengzhou nodded honestly, “My subordinate thinks that this song should be good for His Highness the Fifth.” Specifically, how good it is, he is so rude, he can’t say it, he can only answer according to his feelings.
“I’m interested in the rhythm, so I need to practice more in my spare time. Next time I have a break in training, it’s better to have some adjustment.”
Yan Chengzhou’s steps were chaotic, staring at the master’s back like a copper bell.
Learn rhythm? Is this errand, Your Highness, wrong? Since he was a child, he was incapable of pentatonicity and did not even know musical scores. With this qualification, no musician is willing to teach at all.
Yan Chengzhou held back his doubts and followed His Royal Highness all the way back to the camp, until he fell asleep, without thinking about it. It’s just that, next time he is training, is he really going to go up to show his ugliness?
Zong Zhenglin picked up Mu Xiyao’s letterhead and read it carefully under the oil lamp.
In the dead of night, some miss the soft and greasy look of the little woman when she was coquettish. More than half a month has passed, and things in the house have come one after another, and she can’t be idle for a moment.
He also took the Chengqing “seal” that must be attached to the back of each letter. That kid was raised by his mother in Danruo Garden, and he must be jumping for joy.
Zong Zhenglin glanced at the pile of letters in the box, and felt that this traitorous party needed to be destroyed as soon as possible.
So on the second day, the officers and men found that His Royal Highness’s expression was even colder, and his speed seemed to have increased a little. If there is a difference between the Sixth Highness, everyone thinks that it may just be a military emergency. However, the Fifth Highness on the side is also a rare stern face, which made the entire team instantly condense a lot, everyone buried their heads and hurrying, and out of the corner of the eye caught sight of Commander Yan’s dark green eyes, and even more did not dare to make a sound.
In the Shengjing Palace, Helian Minmin brought Su Linrou and two concubines to the Palace of Concubine Shu, as a routine greeting. Then he got into the sedan chair and followed the empress to meet the Queen Mother Qiansui in Feng’an Palace.
Only after entering the main hall, Helian Minmin saw several princesses talking and amusing beside the Queen Mother at a glance. At this time, Mrs. Jin had a kind smile on her back.
“The Empress Dowager, the concubine brought you from the Sixth Family to greet you.” Concubine Shu smiled decently and saluted respectfully. Behind him, Helian Minmin followed the example, followed closely behind Concubine Shu, and greeted Empress Dowager Jin, who was sitting on the first soft couch.
“No gift.” Empress Dowager Jin raised her right hand slightly, and the golden crystal armor on her tail finger was particularly eye-catching.
Concubine Shu went to sit down at the concubine’s side, and Helian Minmin led someone to sit down under the fifth concubine consciously.
“Sixth brother and sister are not sleeping well? Why are your eyes puffy?” Zong Zhengying on the other side picked up Helian Minmin to ask a question.
The Empress Dowager looked this way, and it was indeed a bit striking.
“Lao Liujia, what’s the matter? Didn’t you have a good rest at night, or was it too much control? You have to take care of yourself, and Aijia is still waiting to hug his great-grandson.” Helian’s stomach has been silent for a long time, but Empress Dowager Jin didn’t. Don’t forget a day.
Helian Minmin folded her hands on her knees and sat upright with an excellent manner.
“If I go back to my ancestors, this concubine is conditioning her body with medicinal meals. I used it a little late last night, and my eyes were slightly swollen this morning.
” People remind me. Otherwise, I drank the many cups of Laoshizi soup in vain, and it won’t work, so I won’t be busy.” The Queen Mother heard that she took the initiative to take medicine, and she showed satisfaction on her face.
“How are the sixth siblings taking care of themselves? When will the ancestor’s wish for a great-grandson be fulfilled?” Zong Zhengying’s eyes flashed sharply. She now sees Zong Zhenglin’s family as an eyesore. Concubine Shu’s holy favor is not declining. She can’t move for the time being. Helian’s family can still make things difficult for her.
Helian Minmin had long been prepared to be censured by her, but she didn’t expect Zong Zhengying to be so unobtrusive in front of the Queen Mother.
“Mother said that you need to take medicine for two or three months. As for the offspring, it depends on fate.” Helian Minmin’s face showed a little shyness, and she seemed embarrassed to say it carefully in front of others.
“Why did this palace hear that the sixth brother often settles in the concubine Mu side’s courtyard, and it doesn’t seem to be many when he is in the house of the younger brother and sister?”
Zong Zhengying said a word, and Zong Zhenglin couldn’t keep Mu Xiyao’s domineering and Helian Minmin together. The two things in my heart are all on the bright side.
The Queen Mother raised her eyebrows, glanced at Zong Zhengying, and then looked at Helian Minmin’s complexion.
“Is this true?” What’s the matter with the rules in this old Sixth House?
Concubine Shu looked towards Helian’s, fearing that she would not understand the sense of proportion and give a bad answer. Unexpectedly, Helian Minmin was rarely sensible this time, and actually excused and explained to Mu Xiyao.
“Old Ancestor, there is nothing we can do about it.” Helian Minmin turned to Zong Zhengying and corrected her with great patience. “Miss Mu’s baby is really unstable, so His Highness naturally tightened it up. It’s normal for people to stay there at night. Besides, they all rest on the couch next to them, separated by a screen, so the rules are not broken.
” Minmin couldn’t be more clear, but at this time, the words must be answered in this way, otherwise there will be no rules in the courtyard, and the ancestors will definitely not like it.
The queen mother remembered what the chairperson of Anguo Temple said, and it was a good thing to remember that this child has a very good fortune and is lively and active. Considering Mu Shi’s hard pregnancy, the surprise in his heart disappeared a lot.
“Besides, Your Highness will not break the rules for the sake of the Mu family. Before leaving the capital, His Royal Highness also went to various courtyards every month, and there was nothing the princess said. Being deceived.”
Where did Zong Zhengying’s news come from, Helian Minmin waited for her to justify it.
Su Linrou was persuaded by Helian Minmin in advance, and the two passed their breath early. Although they were reluctant in their hearts, they had a look of approval on their faces.
Wan Jingwen and Mrs. Zhang were only concubines, and they were not even qualified to answer the question from the Queen Mother, so they could only wait in silence. Listening to Helian Minmin’s answer at this time, she was extremely shocked in her heart, but she didn’t reveal anything on her face.
When the queen mother saw Zong Zhenglin’s mansion, the women in the back house were still in harmony, and there was no worry in her heart. On the contrary, he heard about Zong Zhengying and was not happy.
“Fourth girl, how can you allow yourself to be partial to your beliefs and speak ill in public? What are you asking about in private about the affairs of your Sixth Emperor’s younger brother’s mansion? Do you still need this decency and respect?” Empress Dowager Jin is a typical harem Women have very heavy demands on women’s virtues. This time, when she bumped into Zong Zhengying overstepping the distance, she naturally wanted to give a few words of admonition.
“You are also the mistress of the house now, and the most important thing is to use the Aijia to tell you that it will not work? What are your plans for the old sixth family just now? Have you let your mother see it and take care of it?”
The queen mother asked, not only Zong Zhengying’s face could not hang, but even Helian Minmin was very surprised.
I thought that the queen mother would admonish Zong Zhengying to be open-mouthed and listen to some nonsense. I didn’t think that my ancestor would be guided by her, but instead I thought of the private affairs of the princess’ mansion.
Helian Minmin squinted at Zong Zhengying and laughed secretly in her heart.
The slap slapped loudly.
