Chapter two hundred and ninety-eight, three people fell into the water together
Prince Duan actually left with the second girl from the Xuanping Hou Mansion.
The wealthy ladies of the aristocratic families around them have their own agendas and are extremely jealous. Why should a Marquis of Xuanping be of no use to him?
There are also some people who vaguely know the inside story. After seeing the scene in front of them, it is basically certain that Yu Yuxi will marry into Prince Duan's palace, but they don't know whether she will be the main concubine or the side concubine.
As the granddaughter of Yu Yuxi'an and the eldest princess, she regarded herself as the royal concubine, but the Xuanping Marquis Mansion had no strength or ability. With such a father-in-law, he could not help King Duan at all.
The emperor has not yet established an heir, the crown prince's position has not yet fallen, the middle palace has no children, and the beloved concubine has no children. Prince Duan still has an advantage over the other two, at least he is the eldest son. Therefore, Princess Duan's position is compared to the other two.
The princess is even more exciting, and the next step will be the crown princess, and in the future she will be the queen.
Although no one has gone any further now, at least King Duan is the closest.
Yu Yuxi became Princess Duan? Many girls present were unconvinced. If the old Marquis Xuanping was still there, and if Princess An and the eldest princess still frequented the palace, it would still make sense. Why is the current Marquis Xuanping Mansion so big?
I have the confidence to think about Xiao Xiangduan's position as Princess.
After today, the position of Princess Duan has been decided, and many wealthy families with ideas can no longer sit still.
Looking at Prince Duan and Yu Yuxi walking slowly from the corridor, some people began to secretly calculate whether the position of Prince Duan's concubine could still be grabbed? Would Prince Duan really be willing to marry such a helpless concubine?
Feng Lanxiu and Yu Yuxi came over chatting and laughing, and all the wealthy ladies they met along the way bowed shyly. Feng Lanxiu glanced over with a smile on his face.
Looking at Feng Lanxiu like this, Yu Yuxi was inexplicably uneasy. The vial in her sleeve seemed a bit heavy. After leaving here, she had to find a suitable place first. The position of the princess was hers...
The accident happened at this time.
Several wealthy ladies from aristocratic families who were talking saw Feng Lanxiu approaching and hurriedly turned around to salute. They didn't know who stepped on the skirt of a charming girl wearing a red dress. The girl in red clasped the skirt of another girl in yellow clothes.
He rushed out with his hands and staggering steps, and bumped into Yu Yuxi who had just arrived in front of him.
Yu Yuxi took two steps back, screamed and retreated to the railing. She stretched out her hand to grab the railing to steady her body. She never thought that the railing behind her was not strong and was actually broken. Yu Yuxi fell upside down into the lotus pond, followed by Hong Yi.
The woman also flew out, followed by the girl in yellow clothes who was holding her hand.
No one expected that three people would be knocked over like this.
In the nearby corridor, everyone was shocked.
Feng Lanxiu reacted the fastest. He threw off his robe, looked at the place where Yu Yuxi fell into the water, and jumped down. At the same time, he ordered the servant: "Save someone."
When Feng Lanxiu jumped into the water, the waiter also reacted. While screaming for help, he also jumped into the water to save the other two girls.
The place where Feng Lanxiu jumped into the water happened to be where the woman in yellow clothes fell into the water. When the woman saw someone coming down, she struggled and shouted "help" while vigorously fluttering the lotus leaves around her, and rushed towards Feng Lanxiu.
Lan Xiu pushed away the lotus leaf beside him, ignored the woman in yellow who was nearby, and went straight to the place where Yu Yuxi fell into the water.
Two chamberlains jumped into the water to save the woman in red and yellow.
When Yu Yuxi was rescued, she was wrapped in Feng Lanxiu's clothes, her face was pale without a trace of blood, and her whole body was trembling.
The weather is very hot. In fact, even if you get into the water, you won't shiver from the cold.
"Your Highness..." Yu Yuxi's tears fell and her lips trembled twice.
"It's okay, don't worry, it'll be okay." Feng Lanxiu comforted Yu Yuxi gently, helped her stand still, and at the same time called Yu Yuxi's maid, and escorted Yu Yuxi to the resting place on the shore to change clothes.
"I am with you in everything, and I will never let anything happen to you." Feng Lanxiu said with a serious face, his eyes falling on Yu Yuxi's face with firm eyes.
"Your Highness..."
"Take you girls to change clothes first. We'll talk about anything later." Feng Lanxiu told Yu Yuxi's maid Jin Zhu.
"Girl, let's change clothes first." Jin Zhu responded hurriedly.
"Your Highness..." Yu Yuxi shed tears, her voice was sad, and she weakly shook her head towards Feng Lanxiu.
Feng Lanxiu knew what she was worried about, so he leaned his head against Yu Yuxi's ear and whispered: "Things may not be that bad. Don't worry, I will never give up on you no matter when."
Yu Yuxi nodded, cried and held Jin Zhu's hand and left. Feng Lanxiu asked two chamberlains to follow him and took Yu Yuxi away.
The other two women were also rescued by the chamberlain. Feng Lanxiu looked at the two women and said, "Give them a change of clothes and bring them over later."
After speaking, he stepped forward and walked forward.
Everyone was trembling with fear. The incident happened suddenly. No one expected such an accident. Everyone could see that King Duan's face was not very good at this moment.
After walking a few steps, Feng Lanxiu stopped again, suddenly turned around and walked to the broken railing, and looked at the broken spot: "Let someone check what happened to this railing and why it broke with a collision.
, can a few women be so powerful?"
"Your Highness, this servant is going to investigate right now."
The chamberlain agreed with a cold sweat, and they would have a nice flower-viewing banquet, but before the candidate for the main concubine was selected, something like this happened, and it happened to the second girl of the Xuanping Hou Mansion who was almost certain to be Princess Duan.
This thing smacks of conspiracy.
At the pavilion, Feng Yian looked over with a frown. One of the two princes had something happened, and the other was the most likely suspect...
"Did the second girl from the Xuanping Hou Mansion fall into the water?" After hearing Feng Lanxiu's report, the Queen Mother's face changed greatly and she asked in surprise.
"Yes, just now, two other women rushed out." Feng Lanxiu said with a heavy face, his previous gentleness had long since disappeared.
"Which family's girls are from this family?" the queen asked.
"I don't know, but I have already gone to change my clothes." Feng Lanxiu said with an unhappy expression. "Mother, these two women rushed out at that time and bumped into Miss Yu. If it weren't for them, Miss Yu would not have fallen into the water.
I almost lost my life."
The lotus pond is very large, and the lotus leaves are also very wide. There are lotus leaves wherever you fall into the water, so your life will not be in danger for a while.
Feng Lanxiu was also very angry, so he said such words. This was different from the gentle image he had given people in the past, which showed that he was really angry.
"I will investigate this matter, but Prince Duan...what do you think?" The Queen was silent for a moment and asked softly.
"Please ask the Empress to grant a marriage to Miss Yu and my son." Feng Lanxiu kowtowed three times to the Empress and said without changing his original intention.
"It's always...not good to fall into the water in public." The Queen did not agree directly.
"Mother, when the sons and ministers rescued the second girl Yu, they wrapped her in clothes, and then asked the chamberlain to take her to change clothes."
Feng Lanxiu knew what the empress meant and argued hard.
"After all, this matter... is a disgrace. Even if you come up wrapped in clothes, you can't say... it's not a matter." The Queen shook her head gently, "Prince Duan, your princess is of great importance. What the Emperor cares about most is
As for your affairs, you can’t ruin your reputation and future just because of a little thing.”
There were too many meanings in these words. Even though Feng Lanxiu wanted to marry Yu Yuxi wholeheartedly, he was silent for a while, and then lowered his head: "Mother, Miss Yu is very good."
"No matter how good you are, Princess Duan's reputation cannot be damaged at all. You also understand some things. The position you occupy is not something you can do as you please. Being born into the royal family, sometimes you have to know the way to choose." The queen said earnestly.
He said, "Your mother-in-law is a careless person. Today, my mother-in-law is standing in the position of your mother-in-law and saying this to you. You can figure it out for yourself."
Not standing in the position of the queen, but standing in the position of the biological mother.
Everything he said and did was for Feng Lanxiu's "good" sake.
The weight of such a sentence was something Feng Lanxiu couldn't bear. Feng Lanxiu hurriedly lowered his head and kowtowed again. After being silent for a while, he said sadly and angrily: "Empress, I only hope that Miss Yu can come in."
This is my royal palace, and I will protect her... for the rest of my life."
At the end of the words, the voice was so low that only he could hear it.
The Queen heard it very clearly, with a smile on her face: "Second Miss Yu can certainly enter your Prince Duan's Mansion. As Second Miss Yu, even if she is not the main concubine, she is also a side concubine. If you really feel sorry for her, you can also
Don’t worry about whether you are the royal concubine or not, just explain it to her and she will understand what you mean.”
"I understand." Feng Lanxiu looked downcast.
"What about the other two girls?" the queen asked again. They were not her biological sons. The queen reported to the visitors with a hint of inquiry.
In the harem, the empress has always been a good person.
"Mother, no matter what the reason is for these two girls, and no matter whether they are innocent or not, I do not want to see them again." Feng Lanxiu raised his head angrily, this matter was an unreasonable disaster for Yu Yuxi, and the cause was these two "
The girl who "accidentally" bumped into.
He wanted to believe it was an accident, but if it turned out to be an accident, he wouldn't accept them.
"Mother, the person who rescued them was the servant. At that time, it was not just the son and minister who saw them, but also the second brother and the Crown Prince of Zhongshan. Perhaps the second brother and the Crown Prince of Zhongshan were willing to let them into the palace. Prince Duan's mansion of the child and minister could not accommodate them.
they."
Although he was some distance away from the pavilion at that time, the corridor curved and circled back. In fact, Feng Yi'an and Feng Jingze were on the opposite side of the pavilion.
This is also one of the reasons why Yu Yuxi’s famous festival suffered losses.
"Okay, the Queen Mother understands what you are thinking. The Queen Mother will investigate this matter. Don't worry, no matter what, these two girls will not be allowed to enter Prince Duan's Palace." The Queen Mother said solemnly.
"Thank you, Queen Mother." Feng Lanxiu breathed a sigh of relief. No matter who those two were, he was extremely disgusted by the sight of them. If they really entered Prince Duan's Mansion, he could be sure that the back house would be uneasy, and Yu Yuxi would not tolerate it.
Putting them down and seeing them reminded her of what happened today.
Feng Lanxiu had already wronged Yu Yuxi and was unwilling to wrong Yu Yuxi again on this matter.
"The incident of falling into the water was actually an accident. It was nothing at first. It's just that as a royal family, especially in your position, you have to be cautious about some things. If you are not careful, you may become the target of criticism from officials." The Empress.
sighed.
These words reached Feng Lanxiu's heart. He sighed longly and nodded: "That's what the Queen Mother said."
"I also have something to do here, and it has something to do with falling into the water. I don't know if Prince Duan can listen to it." The Queen spoke slowly.
Feng Lanxiu was stunned: "Queen Mother, please give me your instructions."
