Princess Ning knew that Aunt Qing had just entered the courtyard when her mother-in-law dragged Tan'er out. Naturally, Aunt Qing would not hide it from the old lady, but she did not expect that the old lady would be so concerned about this matter. In the past, her courtyard
The old lady never interfered with the affairs inside. Even if something really happened, her mother-in-law would help her to block it. Now that the mother-in-law was gone, the old lady actually reached out to her own yard.
Just now I taught Qin'er a lesson for no reason, and now I am asking myself why I treated Tan'er with medicine. When did the old lady become so nosy? Why should the old lady interfere with the matters in her yard?
"Grandma, this is a matter in Ning'er's yard. You never ask about Ning'er's affairs. What happened today?" Princess Ning asked.
"I won't interfere with your affairs. If you haven't recovered yet, just go back to the yard to recuperate. After you recover, remember to come over and pay my respects every day," the old lady said.
"But grandma, Qi'er..." Princess Ning asked unwillingly.
"She is no longer from your yard. She will stay in my yard from now on. Her name is not Qi'er, her name is Tan'er. Ning'er, don't call her by the wrong name in the future." The old lady said.
"Grandma, this is someone from my yard, how can you stay? If you want to choose a girl, you can choose someone else. How about you look at Qin'er? She has always been considerate, and you must like her.
I must take this Tan'er back to deal with her, she will only make you angry if she stays." Princess Ning said.
The old lady said coldly to Qin'er who was kneeling on the ground: "You, get up quickly and help your princess, can't you see that she can't stand firmly?"
Princess Ning endured the pain and walked over alone. She originally insisted on talking to the old lady, but the old lady refused to leave Tan'er to her. At this time, cold sweat broke out on her forehead and her face
It's as white as a piece of paper.
When Qin'er heard the old lady asking her to stand up, she quickly stood up and supported Princess Ning. Princess Ning was indeed a little unsteady. Qin'er wiped Princess Ning's forehead with a handkerchief.
Princess Ning continued: "Grandma, just feel sorry for Ning'er. If it's not this girl's fault, why should Ning'er beg you to hand him over?"
The old lady said: "How can I not feel sorry for you? Your mother-in-law gave you to me to teach you before she left. You should be obedient. Why did you run out before your injury healed?"
"Grandma, you..." Ning'er was talking when she suddenly fainted.
"If you don't want to help your princess back, Qing'er, go get a doctor for your princess," the old lady said.
"Yes." Aunt Qing responded.
Because the princess fainted, the yard was in a mess. Fortunately, as the princess left, the yard became much quieter.
"Thank you, old lady." Tan'er knelt in front of the old lady and said.
"Why are you kneeling again? Get up quickly and help me in." The old lady said.
"Yes." Tan'er said.
"Tan'er, when the young prince went to visit the princess this morning, where was the girl named Qin'er?" the old lady asked.
"She said she was going to prepare tea and asked me to stay with the princess to serve her," Tan'er said.
Tan'er knew Qin'er's thoughts. Every time the prince came, she would dress up. This time too, when she heard that the prince was coming, she immediately found an excuse to go out. In fact, she just went to dress up.
The prince's stay in the yard was shorter today, and he left before she came back. Could it be that the old lady believed it?
"When you were waiting for Ning'er in the house, wasn't her makeup so heavy, and the clothes she was wearing were probably different from the ones she wore in the morning, right?" the old lady asked.
Tan'er was stunned at first, because she didn't notice any change in Qin'er's clothes at all. After thinking about it, she said: "Old madam, the clothes Qin'er was wearing seemed to have changed. I can't remember clearly. In the morning
, things happened too suddenly."
"She usually wears so much makeup? Does your princess allow her to do this?" the old lady asked.
"No, Qin'er usually dresses very neatly. The princess was injured these days and didn't pay attention to Qin'er's dress," Tan'er said.
"Tan'er, you don't have to hide it from me. I know you grew up with her, and you definitely can't bear to see her punished. But, even if you don't tell me, I will figure it out. The prince should have left me early in the morning.
After that, they went directly to the princess's yard. After Qin'er got the news, she immediately found an excuse to leave. In fact, it was to dress up. Am I right?" the old lady asked.
"Old Madam knows things like a god. Sure enough, nothing can be hidden from Old Madam." Tan'er said.
"If she is a sensible girl, it would be okay to promise her to the prince, but Qin'er has evil intentions. Even if the prince is interested in her, I will be the first to refuse," the old lady said.
About a quarter of an hour later, Nanny Qing returned to the yard.
"Old madam, Princess Ning has woken up. She fainted just now because of the pain." Aunt Qing said.
"It's good to recuperate in the yard. It's better to have to pass out after all the hard work. What does the doctor say?" the old man asked.
"Don't worry, old lady, the doctor said it's nothing serious. As long as you pay more attention, you'll be fine," said Aunt Qing.
"Well, Aunt Qing, what do those women do?" the old lady asked.
"It was only brought by the princess to torture the maid." Aunt Qing said.
"Take some silver and two cents from the accounting room and let them go. The palace doesn't need them," the old lady said.
"Yes, but if you decide to keep Tan'er, why not give her a token, at least she will not be bullied by anyone in the house." Aunt Qing said.
"I was worried that you would think too much, so I didn't bring it up. I planned to ask you to take more care of her," the old lady said.
"If you give her the token, I can take some time to rest." Aunt Qing said with a smile.
"Let's do it like this," the old lady said.
The old lady rested on the soft couch. Aunt Qing gave the prepared token to Tan'er and said to Tan'er: "You don't have to worry about it in the future. The old lady likes you very much, otherwise she wouldn't do this. But.
, you must not let her down."
"Thank you for the advice, Aunt Qing. I will not disappoint the old lady. Although the princess arranged for the slave to come in to take care of the princess, the princess is stubborn and only the old lady can teach her well. Moreover, the old lady treats the slave sincerely.
, this slave will definitely repay the old lady well." Tan'er said respectfully.
Tan'er knew that it was the old lady who saved her from the mother-in-law. If it weren't for the old lady, she might have had her tongue cut out. Perhaps the princess was not even willing to save her own life. So, she must repay the old lady.
The grace of saving her life. Now the old lady gave her a palace token. From then on, she was a member of the old lady's palace.
Princess Ning's yard
"Qin'er, tell me what happened just now." Princess Ning said.
"Princess, you just woke up, let's wait a few days before talking," Qin'er said.
"If you don't tell me that I can't rest well, I want to know what grandma said and why you made your cheeks swollen." Princess Ning said.
"The old lady called all the slaves over. She actually told us to take good care of you. She didn't say anything else." Qin'er said.
"Don't hide it from me. If you want me to get better soon, tell the truth. Why are you slapping yourself in the face?" Princess Ning said.
"Princess, it's actually your fault for talking too much, otherwise the old lady wouldn't punish herself," Qin'er said.
"What did you say to the old lady?" Princess Ning said.
"Actually, I didn't say anything, but the old lady asked us to persuade you and not let you be too willful. At that time, I was shocked when I saw the chess player standing behind the old lady, and quickly told the old lady that she had angered the county.
Lord, I hope the old lady will hand her over to you. I don’t know why the old lady suddenly lost her temper with me and asked the people in the yard to attack me. I don’t know what Qi’er said in front of the old lady. I just opened my mouth, old lady.
I started to get angry." Qin'er said in a low voice.
"Are you telling the truth?" Princess Ning asked.
"Princess, I don't dare to hide anything from you. Everything I say is true. From the look on the old lady's face, she has made up her mind to keep Qi'er by her side," Qin'er said.
"What on earth did this bitch say to grandma? Why did grandma insist on keeping her by her side? I know you have been wronged. Your face is still red and swollen. You should go and rest first. You don't have to take care of me for the time being.
Yes." Princess Ning said.
"I'm not tired, slave. I know that you went to the old lady's yard. In fact, you were worried that something would happen to the slaves. It was because of your appearance that I didn't continue to be beaten. Your wounds oozed blood because of us. After you fainted just now,
, I’m worried about my death,” Qin’er said.
"You are a talkative girl. You thought that if you went to the old lady's place, you would be favored by the old lady. Who knew that the old lady didn't like you? That's all. She even planned to have someone beat you. But why are you wearing your makeup today?
So thick, do you know that the old lady is most annoyed by girls wearing heavy makeup? I know you admire your elder brother, but do you think my elder brother will like you if you wear such heavy makeup?" Princess Ning said.
Princess Ning has known Qin'er's thoughts for a long time, but the eldest brother is not a womanizer. No matter what the woman around her looks like, he is not interested. The eldest brother can't even look down on Miss Shangshu, how can he be interested in Qin'er
.It’s not because of Qin’er’s identity. If the eldest brother falls in love with Qin’er, she will naturally help Qin’er. The eldest brother just has an extra concubine, which will have no impact on marrying the concubine in the future. But the eldest brother doesn’t like doing this at all.
As a woman, Qin'er likes to be ostentatious, and the clothes she wears never conform to the rules. She doesn't look like a eldest girl from the palace, but more like a young lady from a rich family.
Princess Ning usually just turned a blind eye to her, especially this time she was injured, so she couldn't care less about her.
Recalling the old lady's attitude towards her, I guess it was because of her makeup. The old lady didn't like girls who had no rules, not to mention that it was obvious at a glance that she wanted to seduce her elder brother.
"I know I'm wrong. I never thought that the prince would fall in love with me. I just wanted to leave a good impression on the prince. I was really anxious today and the makeup I wore was too thick. I won't be able to do it anymore in the future.
This slave will not have any wrong thoughts." Qin'er said with some worry.
"How could I not know your thoughts? Don't be anxious. You have also seen that my eldest brother is not a lustful person. At his age, even if he does not have a concubine, he has already married a concubine. But what about eldest brother? There is a concubine in the yard.
There is no room. In the future, there must not be only one concubine in the backyard. When the mother-in-law proposes to take a concubine for the eldest brother, I will give you to the eldest brother, what do you think?" said Princess Ning.
"Princess, I don't mean that. I just want to watch the prince from a distance. I don't dare to have any wishful thinking." Qin'er said.
If the concubine knew about this matter, the concubine would definitely not spare her. When the concubine chose four people to enter the palace, the ones she trusted the most were her and Qi'er. Later, the concubine discovered that she was seducing the prince, and she also
She once reprimanded herself for dressing too ostentatiously. From then on, the concubine never trusted her again.
"Your appearance is not bad, but you should be restrained from now on and don't dress up every day. Only in this way will the big brother not refuse. I know you really admire the big brother, and I will find a way.
I will help you, Princess Ning said.
"Princess, my servants all obey you and will only be loyal to you, not like chess pieces." Qin'er said excitedly.
