There were five concubines in total, and the leader looked to be in her twenties. She had a fox face with raised eyes, and she walked in a charming manner, which was very suitable for a concubine.

The one following him was more gorgeously dressed, and his appearance was not outstanding, but not bad either. Xiaojiabiyu looked very comfortable, but his complexion did not look very good, and he was also thin.

The three people walking side by side behind them were dressed worse than the first two, but they were all beauties with good looks and figures.

Father-in-law Xiao Lin once said that basically no one who can serve his father will not be unfavored, but there will always be poor people who are not blessed to receive this favor, but there are really women in the backyard who are counting on men to live a good life.

The right to choose?

Song Qingyue didn't dress up specially today, just like usual. Her hair was pulled into a casual twist, a silver hairpin inlaid with sapphires and purple pearls was inserted, and she wore two purple pearl earrings on her ears. It was Li Zhao

The Zhenbao Pavilion specially made it for her. It looks fresh, good-looking, valuable, light in weight, and does not pull her hair.

She was wearing her favorite plain silk dress in the past. Today, because she had to meet guests, she put on a translucent blue half-sleeved blouse embroidered with lotus flowers and fragrant cloud gauze. Her whole figure looked like a cool breeze on a hot summer day.

Beautiful and refreshing.

Several concubines were startled when they saw Song Qingyue dressed in this way. She leaned casually in the armchair and smiled very easy-going.

Several aunts bowed to her one by one.

The young woman at the head smiled very sweetly: "I am Aunt Liu from Uncle Fang's family, and I am here to pay tribute to the Crown Princess."

After the one in the front finished speaking, the talented aunt in the back said calmly: "I am Zhang, the concubine of Vice-General Liu, and I am here to pay tribute to the Crown Princess."

The last two are Aunt Su from the family of General Wen of the Northeast Army, Aunt Chang from the family of General Tian from the Xijing Camp, and Mr. Ning’s third roommate named Yunxiu, who looks to be the worst-dressed among them.

He was still young, he looked about fourteen or fifteen years old, his head was always lowered, and he felt a little awkward when raising his hands.

Song Qingyue pointed to a few embroidered embroidery pieces that had been arranged and said, "Sit down, we are all outside now, so there is no need to be too formal."

Mo Yun and Mo Xiang brought tea and snacks, and Song Qingyue said: "Everyone please order casually, so that I can also be casual. I am always tired from serving."

Aunt Liu from Uncle Fang's family looked like she was a good talker. She waved her fan and said, "It's thanks to the Crown Princess that we can enjoy these ice basins for a while. There are ice basins in the whole military camp."

Apart from the Marshal's place, you are the only one with pots. You can stay with us for a while so that we can cool off more!"

The flattery was so natural and comfortable that Song Qingyue was amused and giggled. She turned back to Mo Yun and said, "Let the aunts get some ice-fried yogurt to try."

Song Qingyue glanced at Mrs. Zhang from the Liu family and asked very cordially: "I see that Aunt Zhang doesn't feel well. Maybe she ate something iced?"

Mrs. Zhang was a little uneasy at first, but seeing that Princess Su was very easy-going, she nodded and said, "Yes."

Madam Liu smiled and explained: "Sister Zhang's discomfort is caused by the heat. I don't need to see any doctor. Princess Zhang can be cured with just an ice bowl."

Song Qingyue smiled and waved her hands: "If you feel uncomfortable, you should see a doctor. You can't avoid seeing a doctor for fear of trouble for your men. A minor illness will turn into a serious illness. Isn't it bad for the generals to still miss their women when they go to the battlefield?

"

Mrs. Zhang hurriedly and respectfully said: "I have learned a lesson."

Song Qingyue said: "I don't want to preach. Men are working hard outside, so we should take good care of ourselves. Letting the generals have no worries is the real help. Since you are here today, why not let the imperial doctor take a look? What do you think?

?”

Mrs. Zhang was stunned again, looking at Song Qingyue who was smiling very kindly, her eyes were a little dodgeful, and she kept saying that it was inappropriate and she deserved it.

Song Qingyue directly asked Mo Zhu to go out and ask for Dr. Jiang.

The aunts did not expect that Crown Princess Su would be such a gentle person. After a small bowl of ice-fried yogurt was served to each of them, the atmosphere of the conversation became even better.

Even Yunxiu, the not-so-old Tongfang of Third Master Ning, opened his eyes wide and wanted to ask Song Qingyue how he made this thing. Song Qingyue said generously and authentically that he could not tell for the time being. The method of making it was to be sold to Liu Quanju.

of.

So Aunt Su of the Wen family imitated Mrs. Zhang and flattered Song Qingyue, saying that the Crown Princess was a very good steward of the house and money.

Then several aunts asked about Song Qingyue's clothes and headwear. In short, they were trying to flatter her. After talking for a long time, except for asking the imperial doctor to prescribe a prescription for clearing away heat and detoxifying Mrs. Zhang, all they said was nonsense.

Song Qingyue began to become a little impatient.

Seeing the fading smile on Song Qingyue's face, Mrs. Liu who took the lead finally brought up the business in a roundabout way: "Prince Concubine, you don't know, recently a Qing courthouse from the south of the Yangtze River came to Yanchun Pavilion, the largest brothel in Baoding Prefecture.

My son’s name is Meng Niang, and he was invited by Mr. Ning to serve drinks in the camp a while ago. Later, before my father left with the army, he actually went to Fucheng to support that Meng Niang!"

Song Qingyue raised her eyebrows, thinking that this uncle of the Fang family was really... speechless.

Mrs. Liu sighed and continued: "I know very well what my father's temper is, and he is not a long-term lover. As an aunt, I can't care about my husband's son. There are more than one who is obsessed with that Meng Niang.

My father-in-law and several other men in the army came to praise me. The most surprising thing was that General Liu from Sister Zhang’s family. That general was always a clean and tidy man. A few days ago, he actually asked Sister Zhang to take the money and go to Fucheng.

Redeem the life of that dream girl!"

Song Qingyue's eyes were so frightened by this bloody giant melon that she glanced at Mrs. Zhang with great sympathy. No wonder she looked bad. She hadn't fallen asleep for several nights, right?

"Is there some misunderstanding? I heard that Vice Admiral Liu is not that kind of person..."

At this time, Ms. Liu lowered her voice mysteriously and said, "That's right! We sisters also feel that General Liu is not such a person. Maybe he is covering for someone."

Mrs. Chang from General Tian's family in Xijing nodded and added: "When Sister Zhang went to Yanchung Pavilion to redeem someone, she didn't redeem him. She even said that she already had someone she wanted to belong to, but the man was of high status and she didn't want to bring him down.

She was willing to give up her life to any man for the sake of her reputation! We originally thought that this was just a way of raising one’s status, but that day, Sister Zhang saw a pair of men in the boudoir of the dream girl.

On the half-embroidered gauze table screen, there is a poem written on it: 'The scenery of Zhaozhao Nan Mountain is just like my heart.'"

Song Qingyue, who was taking a sip of lotus leaf and hawthorn tea, suddenly choked on her saliva and coughed for a long time before stopping. She looked at the aunts who came to her sleeping room and thought it was funny. She suddenly laughed out loud. After laughing,

He coughed twice more, took a breath, then looked at Mr. Zhang and smiled: "He is quite ambitious."

The aunts looked at the extremely calm Song Qingyue with some surprise. Mrs. Zhang followed Song Qingyue's gaze and suddenly felt uncomfortable because of the exploration in her eyes. Sitting on Xiudun, her buttocks moved forward slightly.

He moved and straightened his back slightly.

Aunt Zhang still seemed to be avenging her injustice and said: "Prince Concubine, don't underestimate that person, she is very scheming!"

"Um - really?" Song Qingyue protracted, holding her chin, lowering her eyes, staring at the muddy shoe marks on the carpet, and said slowly: "This matter probably depends on His Highness's wishes, tonight

I'll just ask him when he comes back."

After saying that, she raised her eyelashes, glanced at everyone with a half-smile, and said: "As a servant, it's okay to be called to serve His Highness. After all, I can't stay here forever, but I have a sister to take care of His Highness for me.

It’s also good.”

The aunts seemed to be relieved and joked a few more. Little Qin's father-in-law came in and said that lunch was ready. He asked the concubine when she wanted to have lunch, and the aunts all got up and said goodbye and went back.

After they went out, the corners of Song Qingyue's bright mouth suddenly dropped. She smiled for too long, and the flesh on her face almost became stiff from smiling.

She rubbed her face hard, and Aunt Bai who was standing aside was a little anxious, "Prince Concubine, don't be stupid. As long as the Crown Prince doesn't mention it to you, you must never take the initiative to mention this matter to the Crown Prince!"

Song Qingyue hummed and said, "I know, mama, don't worry." Then she looked at little Eunuch Qin and said, "Place the food, I'm hungry."

While the maids were setting up the dishes, Song Qingyue sorted out her thoughts and wanted to find Lin Wanfu and Eunuch Xiao Ji, but thinking that they were probably busy, she turned her attention to Eunuch Qin and asked: "Eunuch Jifu,

Do you know what the relationship between the Rongchang Prefecture and the Guangning Houfu is?"

Little Qin Eunuch immediately nodded and said: "Uncle Rongchang was once a subordinate of the old Guangning Marquis. More than ten years ago, the two mansions were very close, but later one guarded Liaodong and the other was transferred to the Northeast. Old Guangning

After Hou passed away, the exchanges between the two houses gradually became less frequent."

Song Qingyue sneered: "So that's it." She looked up at Aunt Bai, and said with a bit of anger: "I thought that Mrs. Zhang was a kind person, but he actually used me as a gunman! He bullied me for being young.

Or something, it’s true. How unreasonable!”

Little Eunuch Qin moved his ears, raised his head and glanced at Song Qingyue. Song Qingyue felt his gaze and quickly said: "Little Eunuch Qin, don't tell His Highness what happened today!"

Young Eunuch Qin looked puzzled, and Song Qingyue explained: "You can't let your highness and the generals get along with each other because of a few concubines."

Little Eunuch Qin then laughed and said, "You can save it, my servant! Don't worry, Princess, I will definitely not talk nonsense."

Song Qingyue nodded, picked up the bowls and chopsticks to eat, and couldn't help but sigh thinking about what just happened.

Aunt Bai advised from the side: "They are just a few little ladies, they are not worth the trouble you have to worry about for them, Crown Princess."

As a result, Song Qingyue sighed again and ate a few mouthfuls of rice. The more she thought about it, the more unhappy she became. She complained to Mo Yun and Aunt Bai: "I mean well to them, but I'm afraid that if I don't see them, what will happen to them after they go back?"

I was so embarrassed in front of my men, and I even asked Mo Yun to make ice-fried yogurt to entertain them. In the end, they took advantage of me, and they were so kind as to feed the dogs! It's so annoying!"

This matter is actually simple to say. It's just that Uncle Fang is a dishonest man and has fallen in love with the dream girl. For some unknown reason, he doesn't dare to come forward, so he lets General Liu, who has a good relationship and is kind and kind, take the blame for him.

.

As for the other generals, they probably all had some interest in the Mengniang. The aunts were afraid that the Mengniang would be redeemed by their men and compete with them for favor. It just so happened that Li Zhao didn't have anyone to serve him, so they decided to target Li Zhao.

Got it on him.

After all, Song Qingyue is the head wife, and she always has to arrange things for the prince. The best result is that Li Zhao asks for Mengniang. He is the prince's prince, and Mengniang cannot refuse, so that other generals can rest their minds.

These aunts can feel at ease. If Song Qingyue is jealous, they can ask her to come forward and give Meng Niang a slap in the face, telling her not to take any more chances with the young generals in the military camp.

As for whether that girl really wants to climb into Li Zhao's bed, that's not necessarily true. Maybe these aunts made it up in order to get Song Qingyue's advantage. Of course, it can't be ruled out that Meng Niang really likes her.

Li Zhao.

In terms of model appearance, Li Zhao is quite capable.

Um!

Song Qingyue felt very unhappy, so she asked her grandmother to bring her needle and thread.

Although her sewing skills were average, she just felt a sense of crisis and instinctively looked for something to do to please Li Zhao.

Her feelings for Li Zhao are now very entangled and awkward. While she is desperately trying to prevent herself from falling in love with Li Zhao, she also subconsciously wants to hold on to him tightly.

As Liang said, it is good for a man to love you for a few more years.
