Chapter 297 Concubine Shu

Seeing the emperor helping the queen to rest in the tea hall next to the side hall, the handkerchief in the hands of concubine Wu Yueniang, who was kneeling on the futon, was about to be torn by her.

She was a concubine in the general's palace. If her two legitimate sisters hadn't already gotten married, she would never have been given the title of concubine.

When she was going to marry King Qin as his concubine, the direct descendants in the family laughed at her behind her back countless times.

It was said that the King of Qin was weak and sick and was likely to die at an early age. It was said that the late emperor never established a heir apparent because the King of Qin was in poor health and Queen Shen was not as favored as Concubine Zhou.

She said that when she entered Prince Qin's palace, she was just going to die.

It would be nice if King Qin could live for two more years. If King Qin gets too excited and burps on the wedding night, she, the concubine, will probably be buried with him.

These words drifted to her ears in various ways.

Wu Yueniang was originally just a wild girl in the countryside who could not read a few characters. It was not until Chen Quan came to the throne, his father was named a third-grade general for his meritorious service, and the whole family followed him to the city that she achieved the status she has today.

After hearing this, was Wu Yueniang afraid?

Scared.

Chuntao whispered in a low voice: "I'm just going to tell you in private. There are only female relatives in this side hall, and those secret guards are still in the main hall even if they are here. As long as you don't spread the word, no one will hear it."

Lei Ming was originally a secret guard of King Qin, but later he became a bodyguard after King Qin ascended the throne. Not to mention the maids around Wu Yueniang, even Wu Yueniang felt palpitated when she saw Lei Ming full of evil spirits.

"Empress."

Think about the status of King Qin, he is the prince, the son of a dragon, how noble she must be to marry the prince.

The same peach, the same maidservant was promoted to the eldest palace maid, why are the statuses so different?

Chun Xing on the side quickly reminded Chuntao and said softly: "Sister Chuntao, be careful, there are many thunderous people in this hall."

These words just spoke to Wu Yueniang's heart. The emperor and the empress could go to the tea hall and sit there, so why couldn't she.

Wu Yueniang was not stupid enough to ask her mother how she could do this. She did not want to think too badly of her own mother. She still has her mother. Maybe it was just like her mother taught her, and her mother's abilities may also be the same as hers. My mother learned it.

Who can I show you, you are not just trying to seduce the emperor so that you can reach heaven in one step.

After being reminded by Chun Xing, Chuntao also woke up to some extent. She looked at the handkerchief in Wu Yueniang's hand and lowered her voice: "Your Majesty, I will change your handkerchief for you."

But as for her, she was married to the King of Qin, and anyone who saw her had to respectfully call her concubine.

But her mother told her that being able to marry the King of Qin would be a great blessing in her life.

Kneeling beside Wu Yueniang to serve her was her confidant palace maid Chuntao. Chuntao whispered, "Look at the slender waist of that little bitch Taohong. The late emperor was seriously injured. Who does she want to show by tightening her waist so thin?"

Wu Yueniang was so quarreled by them that she had a headache, and she just had nowhere to vent her anger: "Okay, can you two calm down for a while? If the quarrel gets to death, get out of here if you continue to quarrel."

"Sister Chuntao, how could I just pass on the message casually?" Chun Xing secretly rolled her eyes dissatisfied. This Chuntao has a pretty face, but she is just a brainless person.

The emperor must be in mourning. During the period of mourning, not only can he not drink or have fun, he can't eat meat or fish, nor can he have sex with his wife.

If the father lives in the country all his life, the eldest sister and the second sister are married well, and at least they don’t have to work in the countryside for food. The eldest brother’s father-in-law is not a bad person, at least he has some spare money in his hand.

After marrying into Prince Qin's palace, Prince Qin made it clear that he would not rest in the concubine's palace until Princess Qin was pregnant.

Including her aunt, who was cold-hearted towards them at first, but now flatters her with pretense. Her mother has also changed from a concubine who was ignored by her aunt to a concubine in the general's palace.

concubine.

Before Wu Yueniang married into the Qin Dynasty, her aunt only taught her to be docile and virtuous. But her own mother told her to win over the King of Qin and strive to give birth to a grandson before his wife.

One step is slow, each step is slow, why is she a concubine? Why can't she be the princess of Qin or the queen? Why isn't she the one who is pregnant?

Her mother later moved to Beijing and lost her favor. This was because her father's status was different and he had more beautiful concubines around him.

Chun Xing rolled her eyes and immediately said obediently: "My Lady, please go aside and drink some tea to moisten your throat."

When Wu Yueniang came to Beijing, she learned the rules seriously. When she learned skills from her mother, she blushed with embarrassment and studied them seriously. Her mother had been favored in the countryside for more than ten years, so she knew this.

Skills are useful.

Chun Xing didn't want to argue with her, she just sat there and reminded her. As for whether Chun Tao listened or not, she really didn't care.

Chuntao complained aggrievedly: "Mother, it's not my fault..."

For example, her eldest sister was just married to a groceries seller in the countryside, and her second sister was married to the youngest son of a tofu shop family in the town. Her eldest brother was even worse, because his father-in-law was a street vendor.

.

Wu Yueniang could not force King Qin to go to her bed, so she could only nod sagely and wait silently.

It's just that Wu Yueniang overlooked one thing. No matter how useful her skills are, there must be a place for her to use them.

The second half of the sentence was completely silenced by Wu Yueniang's intense gaze.

In order to make her cry more realistic, Wu Yueniang wiped ginger juice on her handkerchief. Now the handkerchief was almost torn by Wu Yueniang, and it was no longer suitable to hold it in her hand.

It's better now. The direct descendant who had been weighing on her for more than ten years now has to kneel down and bow down when he sees her.

Thinking about it, Wu Yueniang felt unwilling to do so.

Just like Wu Yueniang disliked Gongsun Wanying, what Chuntao disliked the most was Taohong, the most important maid around the queen.

After waiting and waiting, Princess Qin was happy. Wu Yueniang thought her chance had come, but the late emperor died again.

Her mother-in-law even went out of her way to teach her some skills in private that, as a woman, she should keep secret between bed and bed.

The meaning of King Qin's words was very clear. He would never let his legitimate son be born after his concubine.

By the time the filial piety was removed, the queen's child was already several months old.

Wu Yueniang didn't reject these methods because they were unpopular. Just like her mother said, it doesn't matter whether the methods are articulate or not, as long as they are useful, as long as a man eats you in bed, you can rely on these to gain an invincible position.

.

Seeing the shy look on Empress Gongsun's face while being supported by the Emperor, Wu Yueniang wanted to scratch her smug face.

Chuntao snorted from her nose: "Then who knows."

I have to say that my mother’s words comforted Wu Yueniang.

"Yes." Wu Yueniang responded softly, letting Chuntao change the handkerchief in her hand.

After changing the handkerchief, Wu Yueniang took it in her hand and pretended to wipe it gently at the corner of her eyes, then stood up with the help of the two palace maids, and prepared to go to the tea hall to sit.

Strings of tears rolled down, looking really heartbroken and distressing.

Even the family members of officials who accompanied Wu Yueniang in mourning all praised Concubine Shu as a virtuous and virtuous woman. She was indeed a role model among our generation.
