Chapter 94 She is jealous that I am prettier than her
Hongxiu screamed in embarrassment and scolded Wu Tian for a while. When he was about to reach the door of the palace, Hongxiu scolded again,
"When the prince comes back, he will definitely be angry if he knows that the princess treats me like this. I am the woman given to the prince by His Highness King Qi. The princess is violating His Highness King Qi's wishes. Aren't you afraid of offending His Highness King Qi?"
"Ah~~"
A cry of surprise rang out, and Hongxiu was thrown out of the palace gate by Wu Tian. She was wearing a red gauze, and she fell to the ground like a thunderbolt, with tears falling down.
The King of Qi loved to collect beauties, and beauties such as Hongxiu Tianxiang had entered the Prince of Qi's palace since they were young, and had been specially taught by someone since they were very young.
In Prince Qi's Mansion, they were all well-dressed, well-fed, and surrounded by slaves. How could they have ever experienced such abuse and humiliation?
Hong Xiu's eyes were red, she stood up from the ground, looked at the civilians gathered around her, and said angrily:
"What are you looking at? I am from His Highness King Qi! You are not allowed to look at it."
The surrounding civilians have long been accustomed to seeing the bustle at the entrance of Prince Li's Mansion. Some people covered their mouths and said with a smile:
"His Royal Highness Prince Qi? His Highness Prince Qi actually let a beauty like you go without. What a waste of natural resources. How did you offend our little Princess Li?"
"She is jealous that I am more beautiful than her, and jealous that I can give birth to a young prince!"
Hong Xiu was crying angrily as she spoke. She was driven out of the palace by Hua Jin out of jealousy before she even saw King Xiao Li's face.
Then Hongxiu's eyes became more and more angry:
"I want to see the prince, can anyone help me? I want to see the prince~"
"King Xiao Li is on the battlefield now. If you want to see him, you can only go with the army."
Someone responded to Hongxiu, looking at Hongxiu with a smile, his eyes had an obscene light,
"Beauty, now that Prince Li doesn't want you, do you want to go back with me?"
"Don't listen to him. You should go back to Prince Li's Mansion and tell the princess your fault. The princess is in our north, but she is a very good person. She has no bad intentions."
Some people couldn't stand it any longer and decided to point out a clear path for Hongxiu.
"As long as you don't confront the princess, she will be easy to talk to. But if you keep putting yourself against the princess, I guess your life in this northern city will not be easy."
Hong Xiu looked at the passerby who was helping Hua Jin with a look of disgust, and snorted,
"Why were you bewitched by that demon concubine? You actually helped her speak, but don't forget, she is just a hen that can't lay eggs!"
When she said this, many people stopped talking. The people who were originally speaking for Hua Jin seemed to be unable to find anything to say to refute.
In the end, he shook his head, too lazy to watch the excitement, and walked away with great regret.
The princess is a good person, but she will never have an heir in this life, alas.
There were some men who stayed around Hongxiu who wanted to take her away. Since Princess Li couldn't tolerate Hongxiu, they wanted to pick up a beauty and take her back.
However, Hongxiu's heart is as high as the sky. She has been trained since childhood in order to be sent out by King Qi one day and become a man's favorite.
Not just any cat or dog can take her away.
The men around him saw that Hong Xiu was resolute, and they couldn't use force at the gate of Prince Li's Mansion. They could only exchange glances with each other, stand in front of the gate of Prince Li's Mansion, and pester Hong Xiu with words.
Ignoring the men with evil intentions around her, Hong Xiu held up her red gauze skirt and stepped forward, about to enter the palace.
Tianxiang, wearing a green gauze skirt, walked out of the side door, followed by a woman.
"elder sister."
Tianxiang came over softly and held up her skirt. She looked at Hongxiu with her almond-shaped eyes full of worry.
"Sister, do you want to admit your mistake to the princess?"
"What mistake do I admit? I am the woman given to Prince Xiao Li by His Highness King Qi. If you want to drive me out of the palace, you can only do it if the prince has spoken. I want to return to the palace."
Hongxiu glanced sideways at Tianxiang and cursed again:
"You are such a weakling. Seeing me being dealt with by that hen that doesn't lay eggs, you didn't help me. It's a waste of time for me to be worthy of your sister."
"Sister...I..."
Tian Xiang, who had straight bangs, burst into tears immediately. She looked extremely timid. She looked behind her again and stuffed a bag of silver into Hong Xiu's hand.
"Sister, the princess is very angry right now, and I'm afraid she won't let you into the palace. You should find a place to settle down first, and wait until the prince comes back before making any plans."
Hong Xiu's complexion became a little better. She weighed the bag of silver in her hand, feeling a little disgusted.
"Why so little? Didn't His Highness give you any money before you came?"
"I have given some, but His Highness always loves my sister more, so naturally I don't give as much as my sister."
Tianxiang lowered her eyes, her eyelashes covering up the expression in her eyes. Before Hong Xiu could reprimand her again, she said in panic:
"I have to do some embroidery work, sister. I have to offend my sister and wait outside the palace. After the prince comes back, I will tell the prince about my sister and ask him to pick her up."
After saying that, Tianxiang squatted slightly towards Hongxiu, looked back at the old woman behind her, and followed her to the embroidery workshop.
Leaving Hong Xiu behind, she watched Tian Xiang leave with a look of disdain, and gave a "hum" in her red lips.
"How spineless."
It wasn't her who said that Tian Xiang was like this in Prince Qi's Mansion before. He was weak and weak, and seemed like he couldn't win anything or gain anything.
Hong Xiu has always felt strange that His Highness, Prince Qi, would send such a weak woman as her and Tian Xiang to Prince Xiao Li together.
If there was someone who was as powerful as her, how could the two of them together allow Hua Jin, a hen that couldn't lay eggs, to run wild in Prince Li's mansion?
snort!
What happened outside the door reached Hua Jin’s ears. Hua Jin shook her fan to fan the wind and asked Su Niang with a smile,
"What do you think?"
"It seems that this girl Tianxiang is much kinder, more gentle and sensible than the girl Hongxiu."
Su Niang told the truth, her impression of Tianxiang was much better than that of the whistling red sleeve.
Hua Jin just shook her fan and smiled,
"Oh, yeah..."
Then he said to Wu Tian:
"Just let the red-sleeved girl go and pay close attention to the Tianxiang girl."
Wu Tian responded and gave the order.
At present, it seems that Tianxiang is much less of a threat than Hongxiu. She seems to be very obedient and signed a labor contract with the palace obediently. She goes to the embroidery workshop to do embroidery work during the day and returns to the palace to rest at night.
There was no noise or fuss during this period, and when working in the embroidery workshop, she was serious and did not show any signs of laziness or slippage.
Gradually, people in the palace have a good opinion of Tian Xiang. As long as she does not compete with Hua Jin for favor, people in the palace will not look down upon her.
As for the war in northern Xinjiang, it started in early spring, and as it continued, it became a stalemate.
This time, Beirong devoted all its national strength to fight this battle and assembled hundreds of thousands of troops outside the northern border, determined to go south and invade Tianjing Kingdom.
However, Li Yunqing led a small Shence Army with less than 10,000 people, but the more they fought, the more ferocious they became. The more they fought, the more skillfully they fought. The more they fought, the more heroes and heroes came to join the Shence Army.
Therefore, Beirong's army fought less and less, while Li Yunqing's Shence Army fought more and more.
Frontline military newspapers are delivered to Hua Jin every day, and she burns them after reading them. Then she goes to the military town every day to treat the wounded soldiers who have retreated from the front line and are sent to the military town.
In such a tense environment, Miss Tianxiang went to the embroidery workshop every day to work. Occasionally, she would go to Hongxiu's to give her some daily necessities.
Other than that, Tianxiang is very calm and doesn't act like a monster.
Hongxiu couldn't help but scold her for being so peaceful. Her non-competitive and non-competitive attitude was so infuriating.
Looking at the simple little courtyard she rented, Hong Xiu pointed at Tian Xiang's nose and cursed extremely arrogantly:
"Who are you burying when you send me these rags? Now that you are in Prince Li's Mansion and I live in this shabby courtyard, why don't you be more generous and drive away that hen that doesn't lay eggs?"
Because Li Yunqing didn't come back, Hongxiu's patience was almost exhausted. She was tired of waiting day after day and tired of living in poverty.
When she was in Prince Qi's Mansion, she wore silks and satins, ate delicacies from the mountains and seas, and her food and clothing expenses were better than those of ordinary young ladies.
But now that Hua Jin has been kicked out of Prince Li's Mansion, she doesn't have enough money at all. Although Tianxiang helps from time to time, how can it compare with the past?
Hongxiu, who usually doesn't touch the spring water with her fingers, has to dress and cook by herself. If Li Yunqing doesn't come back, Hongxiu's delicate hands will become rough.
She scolded Tianxiang, but Tianxiang only cried weakly and innocently, which was of no use at all.
Just listen to Tianxiang sobbing and crying:
"I, I also want to help my sister. When I first came out of Prince Qi's Mansion, I heard that even the imperial envoy was of no use to Beidicheng. How can I help my sister?"
"Moreover, the prince is fighting on the front line, and the princess has to go to the military town every day and is often away from the palace. I can't even see the princess. How can I win over her?"
After hearing these words, Hong Xiu was very irritated and could only wave her hand to chase her away.
"Go ahead and use this useless thing to be your embroiderer."
It seems that in order to unseat Hua Jin, relying on the ineffective method of adding fragrance will definitely not work. Hongxiu still has to find a way on her own.
After driving away the crying Tianxiang, Hongxiu immediately thought of the imperial envoy Zhai Yi who came to Beidicheng.
