"Please help us, Madam." Jin Yu knelt in front of Madam Qian and kowtowed.
Mrs. Qian is very old. She is almost ten years older than before. She is very old and decrepit. Her face is pale with a hint of cyan. It is obvious at a glance that she is in poor health. She is almost trying to hold on. I really don’t know why.
At that time, it may disappear immediately, and the face will be so thin that it is almost bone-shattering.
She was getting older, and her injured leg healed slowly. She was still leaning on the bed, raising her heavy eyelids, but her eyes were not completely decayed. Instead, they were a little dull.
Mrs. Qian, who raised her eyes, and Mrs. Qian, who closed her eyes, seemed to be two people. One looked full of ambition, while the other seemed to be on the verge of death.
Yes, Mrs. Qian has ambitions. Compared with the old Mrs. Qian who always had a kind and smiling face in her eyes, this Mrs. Qian without outsiders in front of her is the real Mrs. Qian. Even though she is already old,
There is still ambition in his eyes.
One step forward, another step forward. After all, her bloodline is the most noble bloodline, even her direct brother cannot compare with it.
Her mother is not a lowly outside wife, and she is not a lowly outside wife. Everyone will bow to her bloodline, and she will step on everyone's backs, step by step, and then up.
"Are you having conflicts with Xu Anjiao again?" Mrs. Qian whispered.
"Old madam, Concubine Xu is really too much. Whenever the prince spends the night at our concubine's place, he will definitely come to the house the next day to make trouble. He makes trouble again and again. It is obviously not our empress's fault. In the end, the trouble becomes so bad.
It has become our queen's problem, especially the prince, but he didn't reprimand Concubine Xu more."
Jin Yu was so wronged that her eyes were red, angry and annoyed.
Even in the Xuanping Hou Mansion, my master had never suffered such grievances, but he suffered such grievances, but had no way to appeal. He obviously sent the news to the Xuanping Hou Mansion, but even the people of the Marquis saw it.
However, when I met Mrs. Zhou several times, she just excused herself, saying that she was just an ordinary wife and could not care about the affairs of Mrs. Hou's legitimate daughter, not to mention that it was still a matter of Prince Duan's palace.
"The Xuanping Marquis Mansion doesn't care?" Mrs. Qian understood, rolled her heavy eyelids, and asked.
"I didn't see Lord Marquis, I only saw Mrs. Zhou, and Mrs. Zhou said she couldn't control it," Jin Yu complained.
The room became quiet, and it took a long time before Mrs. Qian heard a cold snort: "You are indeed useless Marquis Xuanping. If I had known, I would have let my daughter marry the son of Princess Minghe."
Mrs. Qian, the two eldest princesses who were in the capital at that time, had considered it, but she finally chose Xuanpinghou Mansion, naturally because she felt that the daughter of Xuanpinghou had a better chance.
Both of royal blood, Ming and the eldest princess looked like their legitimate princesses. They were equally popular at the time, but they were just looking at them. Mrs. Qian analyzed them from all aspects. Finally, she also looked at the two eldest princesses’ sons.
It was also analyzed on a level basis, and we came to the conclusion that it was easier to deceive Marquis Xuanping, and it would be easier for his daughter to enter the Marquis Xuanping's house.
"Old madam, our concubine has no one to support her now. Please... help our concubine." After hearing what Mrs. Qian said, Jin Yu hurriedly said.
"Backer? With me as the minister's house?" Mrs. Qian sneered.
"Old Madam..." Jin Yu lowered her head.
Mrs. Qian's eyes slowly lowered and fell on Jin Yu: "Jin Yu, you haven't forgotten that you are not an ordinary maid, have you? When I sent you to Xi'er, you were not just an ordinary maid.
You and Jin Zhu are both very skilled."
"Old... what does the old lady mean?" Jin Yu said in a panic. She was more powerful than ordinary maids. She also knew some secrets and was good at martial arts. However, she did not dare to expose what happened to Jin Zhu before.
She was so scared that she didn't dare to do anything unusual. She was just an ordinary maid, and could only be an ordinary maid.
"Since the Xuanping Marquis Mansion can't make the decision for your empress for the time being, and Xu Anjiao is so annoying, why not let her calm down for a while?" the old lady said softly.
"Old...old lady..." Jin Yu trembled.
"There are not many people around me now. I only have a few confidants left. It's just you and a few people around me. I lost some people before... There are even fewer people outside... Jinyu, as long as
Your master has made his mark, and everything in the future will be yours. Don't be afraid, you are very important now."
Mrs. Qian smiled, but her voice was inexplicably gloomy.
Very important? Jin Yu felt a little at ease. As long as it was very important, it would be fine for the time being. Thinking that he was the only confidant around the concubine, Jin Yu immediately became less panicked.
"Old lady, what should I do?"
"Xu Anjiao has someone to rely on. I guess she has to go back and find someone to rely on now, right?" the old lady said.
"Yes, Concubine Xu returns to the mansion of the eldest princess Minghe every few days. It is because of this that the prince scolds her less. He must be afraid that she will go back and complain."
Jin Yu gritted her teeth and said, in fact, she could see clearly that her concubine was relatively weak because the Xuanping Hou Mansion did not support her, otherwise Xu Anjiao would not be able to step on her head. Before,
When Xu Anjiao faced off against the third girl, she was repeatedly at a disadvantage. At that time, Xu Anjiao was still holding the title of county head.
Isn’t it because the third girl is followed by An and the eldest princess? What if Ming and the eldest princess quarrel again?
But now that the Marquis is angry with his concubine, Jin Yu tries not to think about the matter of leaving the Xuanping Marquis Mansion. It is also a nightmare for her.
His fingers twitched for a moment, and then he breathed hard, for fear of attracting the old lady's attention.
"Now that she's out of the house, just let her do something." The old lady said.
Jin Yu was overjoyed: "Old madam, tomorrow...tomorrow Concubine Xu will leave the house. She quarreled with the empress again today and smashed several of her good things. The prince scolded her a few words. Now she will go back to the courtyard to reflect on herself.
went."
Normally, the next day after such an incident, Xu Anjiao would leave Prince Duan's Mansion to complain to the eldest princess Minghe. When she came back, she would be accompanied by her grandmother, who would also meet her own prince.
After that, the prince would neglect his wife for a few days and stay with Concubine Xu for several nights.
Needless to say, it must have been Ming and the nun beside the eldest princess who said something.
Jin Yu was very angry. It was Concubine Xu who was obviously in the wrong, so why was it her own mother-in-law who was punished in the end? This meant that she had no one to stand up for and no one to rely on for bullying her own mother-in-law.
Mrs. Qian slowly closed her eyes, and then said: "Is the car for the trip confirmed?"
"It's certain. Concubine Xu's carriage is actually better than our concubine's carriage. It beats our concubine head-on." Jin Yu complained angrily.
Now the two mistresses of Prince Duan's Mansion regard their concubine as the most respected one, and it is indeed their concubine who helps manage things. However, Concubine Xu always comes to pressure her whenever she has something to do. She wants to gain the upper hand wherever she goes. Obviously, the prince
He also knew that the concubine was wronged, so he would comfort the concubine. It can be seen that he was always partial to Concubine Xu.
"Something happened to the carriage wheel, right?" Mrs. Qian thought for a moment and said, ignoring Jin Yu's complaint. Now that she has entered Prince Duan's Mansion and the backyard of Prince Duan's Mansion is so complicated, this kind of thing is a common thing. Qian
The old lady didn't feel the need to tell herself.
She raised her granddaughter single-handedly, and she had warned her before. The only difference was that she was in the position of the principal concubine at that time, and now she is in the position of the side concubine.
It's just a palace, it will be a prince's palace in the future, or even a harem. The so-called battle is just the beginning.
That being the case, let’s do it!
"Don't worry, old lady, I can do it, slave." Jin Yu gritted her teeth.
"Then do it." The old lady said.
"Old madam, can Xuanpinghou Mansion..." Jin Yu said eagerly.
Xuanpinghou Mansion is the support of his concubine, but now this support is useless. This is where Jin Yu is most panicked. If Xuanpinghou Mansion still has the same attitude towards his concubine, how can Concubine Xu dare to be so presumptuous?
The prince would not be lenient to Concubine Xu on the surface, not because his master had no one to rely on.
His Royal Highness Duan Wang expressed deep affection for his master before, but now he treats his master like this. Jin Yu also has some resentment in her heart, but she is the most resentful, and she can't compare with her master.
The Xuanping Hou Mansion ignored her again, so Jin Yu could only find Mrs. Qian, hoping that Mrs. Qian could use her strength...
"There is no need to rush things in the Xuanping Marquis' Mansion. Let's take it slow." Mrs. Qian waved her hand, "Tell Xi'er to be careful in Prince Duan's Mansion. The main concubine will come in soon, not only the main concubine, but also the side concubines.
, there is someone behind every one, she has no background but only favors, showing weakness is not a good thing at all, please take good care of your prince's heart!"
There are so many women, none of them are easy to get along with. There is no royal figure behind any of them. They are different from the inner courts of ordinary aristocratic families. Showing weakness will make opponents look down upon. As for the help from the Xuanping Houfu, she will do it for her granddaughter.
If you ask for it back, Prince Duan will look at Xi'er more highly.
Only a woman with a background and favor can truly win in the backyard of Prince Duan's Mansion and have the last laugh.
"Old lady..." Jin Yu didn't understand.
"Go ahead and tell Xi'er to be careful. I'm responsible for everything outside the house." Mrs. Qian took on everything.
Jin Yu breathed a sigh of relief and quickly kowtowed to Mrs. Qian: "Thank you, Mrs. Qian. I will leave."
Jin Yu stepped back, and Mrs. Qian stretched out her hand and knocked gently on the bedside. The nanny standing by the bed poured a glass of warm water, half-supported Mrs. Qian, and brought the warm water to Mrs. Qian's mouth.
Mrs. Qian opened her mouth, drank half the cup, and then shook her head.
Grandma gently put down Mrs. Qian and put the cup back on the table.
"Didn't you hear before that the man from Xuanpinghou Mansion is also going out? Let's get together!" Mrs. Qian whispered.
"Old madam, our people in the Xuanpinghou Mansion... are basically gone." Mammy's face turned bitter. The Xuanpinghou Mansion had been cleaned again before. After such cleanings, no matter how many people were left, the Hou
There were only a few true confidants of Madam in the past, and the others were all two-sided. How could anyone be willing to do this?
"Then... let's change the target!" Mrs. Qian said, her eyes narrowed, she still had to send someone off to Xuanpinghou Mansion. Xuanpinghou Mansion is too important to her granddaughter...
