Of course Madam knows that Concubine Yun is still unwilling to help arrange the marriage for Ning'er. She only cares about the safety of that girl, so she rushes to summon her. Of course she doesn't expect Concubine Yun to like Ning'er that much, as long as she takes care of that girl.
For the girl's sake, just arrange the marriage for Ning'er.
However, that girl is a lucky one. The old lady not only saved her, but also gave her a new identity. This identity is much better than the identity of a concubine in the prime minister's family. Even if she is just a goddaughter, she is at least a member of Prince Cheng County's palace.
In the future, if you meet a suitable young master, the old lady can ask your majesty for that girl to become a princess and marry her off.
But what Madam is worried about is that Tan'er will resent herself and Ning'er after knowing her identity in the future. If Concubine Yun knew that Ning'er had wanted to kill Tan'er, Concubine Yun would never spare Ning'er.
Therefore, she must not let Tan'er know her life experience, nor will she take her to see Concubine Yun.
Concubine Yun Guifei said to Madam: "Actually, it's not just me who is thinking about that girl. My eldest brother also asked about her a few days ago. You also know that eldest brother has always loved that girl's biological mother. He entrusted that girl to you, too.
In order to save her life, if she is taken back to the Prime Minister's Mansion, she will be a concubine at most. The eldest brother is busy with official duties and has no time to take care of the girl. The eldest brother trusts you, so he will give the girl to you. Don't worry, the eldest brother will not treat you badly. Even if I
If there is no way to help Ning'er, big brother will not ignore her."
"I know that eldest brother loves this girl the most, otherwise he wouldn't have left her to me to raise. However, eldest brother will definitely like her very much when he sees her," the lady said.
"Ning'er still has two years to get her haircut, so she can wait for some more time to get engaged. However, you also know that Yue'er has already got her haircut, so it stands to reason that she should have already married. However, my sister-in-law was worried about Mo'er at the beginning, so she kept delaying it until
Now, she doesn’t agree with the marriage that my sister-in-law arranged for her, so I leave it to me. Before the end of the year, I must help her arrange it properly," said Concubine Yun.
"Yue'er wanted to marry His Highness King Mo, so why didn't she ask His Majesty for marriage in the first place?" Madam asked doubtfully.
You must know that His Majesty King Mo did not have a concubine at the time. If he asked His Majesty, His Majesty would definitely agree.
"My sister-in-law had her own plans, but she didn't know that the daughter of the Linfeng Kingdom got there first," said Concubine Yun.
"The marriage between the two countries is a state matter. Even if my sister-in-law intends to stop it, Your Majesty will never agree. My sister-in-law will not have her mind set on His Highness Pluto, right? Could it be that she has the heart to let Yue'er marry Pluto as a concubine?" Madam was puzzled.
said.
"Of course she can't bear it, because she thinks His Highness Pluto may inherit the throne in the future. Even if Yue'er is just a concubine, she will be named a concubine and enter the palace in the future." Yun Guifei said.
"Sister-in-law's ambition is really growing, but Yue'er's age seems to make it inappropriate to delay it any longer," the lady said.
"These things are just my guesses. After all, my sister-in-law wants to bring Yue'er and Jue'er together on the surface. You know my sister-in-law is ruthless. Otherwise, who will die in the hands of my brother's many concubines? Mei.
Son, although you and I don't have a good relationship, we are still sisters from the same mother. You have to be careful about my sister-in-law, she can do anything." Concubine Yun Gui said.
Concubine Yun's words kept lingering in Madam's ears. On the way back, Madam was uneasy because she really didn't understand what Concubine Yun meant by her last words.
Princess Ning waved her hand in front of Madam's face and said to her: "Concubine, what's wrong with you? What did my aunt tell you? Are you in a daze all the time?"
"My aunt said you caused trouble at the flower viewing party. Fortunately, you performed well on her birthday. Your Majesty has a good impression of you. The marriage will have to wait until next spring," the lady said.
"Ning'er's marriage is not urgent, but mother-in-law, don't worry, Ning'er will definitely keep her peace. However, Ning'er has something to say to mother-in-law," Princess Ning said.
"Say it," the lady said.
"Because Ning'er is ignorant, she has caused a lot of troubles. In fact, Ning'er has also figured out these days that Yun Ying is indeed the eldest daughter of Prince Cheng County. Even if Ning'er doesn't want to admit it, this is a fact. It's almost the end of the year.
Now, my grandmother is going back to the palace, and she and Tan'er are the only ones left in the princess's palace. This is her first year back, and she must kowtow to her ancestors. If she had not returned to the palace, gossip would spread in the capital.
" Princess Ning said.
"Why did the gossip spread?" asked the lady.
"Although she is determined not to go back, people outside know nothing. They don't even know that you came to ask her to go back, and she rejected your kindness. When the time comes, it will be spread in the capital that it is because of Ning'er
Because of this, the eldest daughter cannot go back to kowtow to her ancestors even on New Year's Eve. Mother and concubine, if the news reaches the palace, Ning'er's marriage will be difficult to handle," Princess Ning said.
"What you said does make sense. In this case, the whole blame for her not returning to the palace will be your fault," the lady said.
"Therefore, the mother-in-law must let her return to the palace to celebrate the festival." Princess Ning said.
"Last time you were there, she already rejected me. Even if I invite her again, she won't agree," the lady said.
"Mother, if you don't go, how would you know that she refuses? If it doesn't work once, do it twice, and if it doesn't work twice, do it three times, until she agrees," Princess Ning said.
"Ning'er, aren't you planning any bad ideas?" Madam asked doubtfully.
"Mother, Concubine, Ning'er was just too willful before, and you suffered a lot of grievances, so Ning'er will not cause trouble again. Ning'er just feels that if Yun Ying is not invited back this time, it will spread all over the city.
, I want to push Prince Cheng's palace to the top of the wave again." Princess Ning said aggrievedly.
"Concubine Yun reminds you that even if she agrees to go back this time, you are not allowed to cause trouble. When you entered the palace today, Concubine Yun was very critical of your previous actions. If you don't listen and cause trouble, I'm afraid even Concubine Yun will also
I can't help you," the lady said.
Princess Ning knew that even if something happened to her, her mother-in-law would not sit idly by, so she readily agreed because the most important thing now was to ask her mother-in-law to invite Yun Ying back.
She had given up a few days ago, but she was unwilling to give up. She knew that if she didn't trick Yun Ying into the palace, she would have no chance to deal with her.
But she knew that if she just mentioned Yun Ying's return to the palace, her mother-in-law would definitely not invite Yun Ying back. However, if Yun Ying's failure to go back would affect the reputation of the Chengjun Palace, her mother-in-law would not sit idly by and ignore it.
After Princess Ning came back from the palace, she felt a little tired. She asked Ke Xin to make tea for herself. Seeing that Qin'er didn't speak after returning from the palace, she asked: "Qin'er, are you worried about something?
We've already returned to the palace, why haven't we said a word yet?"
Qin'er said: "I don't know what to say."
"You must be wondering why I suddenly changed my mind and asked my concubine to find a way to invite Yun Ying back to the palace?" Princess Ning asked.
"The princess has made a decision a few days ago, and it is always not good to attack her in the palace. However, today, the princess suddenly discussed with the madam, and the slave girl is really not mentally prepared." Qin'er said.
"Because the more I thought about it in the past few days, the more unwilling I became, so I decided to deal with her. However, if I suddenly mentioned this matter to my mother-in-law, she would definitely not agree. So, I thought of a way to make the mother-in-law have to go and invite her.
She goes back." Princess Ning said.
"However, we have all said before that if we attack the palace, we will always be suspicious of the princess." Qin'er said.
"Don't worry, they won't doubt me. Even if Yun Ying agrees to kowtow to her ancestors, she will only stay in the palace for two or three days at most. I will take action before she leaves, and even if something happens she won't be found.
On my head." Princess Ning said.
Qin'er knew that her persuasion was useless, because Princess Ning was determined to deal with Yun Ying. After listening to the monarch's words, she fell silent again.
"Are the crotons you bought last time still there?" Princess Ning continued to ask.
"Yes, the slave buried it in the yard after she got it back." Qin'er said.
"I don't want to be unreasonable, I just want to teach her a lesson. Besides, I originally planned to let you buy the pi cream. However, I know that you are kind-hearted and will never buy the pi cream back." Princess Ning said.
"Princess Princess still wants to buy pi cream? Don't do it. Princess Yunying is not a servant of the mansion. If something happens, she will definitely send someone to investigate the matter. If it is found out that this matter is related to the Princess, even if
Even Madam can't protect you." Qin'er said anxiously.
"You are right, that's why I only prepared those crotons to deal with her." Princess Ning said.
"Princess, I'm just worried about you." Qin'er said.
"I know you're worried about me, otherwise you wouldn't have told me this. Don't worry, I know what's going on," Princess Ning said.

"Concubine, did grandma really promise to come back to celebrate the New Year?" Prince Cheng asked.
"Yes, she is finally willing to come back. However, do you know why grandma has been angry with you for so long?" the lady asked.
"Mother, my grandmother is angry because I stand up for Ning'er. My grandmother is already biased against Ning'er, otherwise I wouldn't dare to contradict her," Prince Cheng said helplessly.
"Ning'er is much smarter than you. She at least knows how to make the old lady happy. On the contrary, it's you. Grandma is still angry with you. After so long, have you ever visited her at the Princess's Mansion?"
the lady asked.
"The last time I went to the princess's mansion, my grandmother said she didn't want to see me." Prince Cheng said.
"The same is true for Ning'er, but she still insists on going to pay her respects to her grandmother," the lady said.
"Ning'er is indeed much more sensible than before, and it is right for her grandmother to treat her well," Prince Cheng said.
"Tomorrow morning you accompany me to the Princess's Mansion to pay her respects to her old man. Even if grandma loses her temper, you must persuade her to forgive you," the lady said.
"I understand, concubine." Prince Cheng said.
"Concubine, I heard that you went to the princess's mansion in person last time to ask Yun Ying to come back with her grandmother, but unfortunately, she did not agree." Prince Cheng continued to ask.
"Well, I know what she is thinking, but it doesn't matter, I will discuss it with her again," the lady said.
"If she doesn't want to come back, I'm afraid she won't be able to bring back ten cows." Prince Cheng said.
"She has always been the legitimate daughter of Prince Cheng, and she must pay homage to her ancestors this year. Ning'er has done many wrong things, and now it's time to make up for her," the lady said.
"Mother, Concubine, after Ning'er's lesson last time, I believe she won't cause trouble again. She is from Prince Cheng's Mansion, and she really shouldn't be allowed to spend the New Year alone in the Princess' Mansion. It's just that Mother and Concubine have worked so hard, and
I need to persuade her to come back." Prince Cheng said.
"You'd better think carefully about how to coax grandma into good health," the lady said.
"Don't worry, concubine, I will coax my grandmother well," Prince Cheng said.
