When Zhou Ruhua was about to answer, Li Tai said first: "Mother, she is the maid of General Yuchi's family. She was sold since she was a child. She has no idea about her life experience."
Li Shimin said: "It's the poor child's fault. It saves a lot of etiquette troubles. If her parents are still alive, she might dislike us."
Zhou Ruhua was a smart man and immediately said: "Your Majesty, people in the Tang Dynasty say that being a maid in the imperial palace is the happiest thing. I can be by King Wei's side. That is a great blessing."
"Okay, this kid really knows how to talk. Okay, that's it."
As she spoke, Empress Changsun took off a jade bracelet from her arm and handed it to Zhou Ruhua, saying: "This bracelet was left by my mother, and I will give it to you as a gift today."
Zhou Ruhua was flattered, took the bracelet and said, "Thank you, Queen."
Li Shimin twisted his beard and said: "After all this time, you still don't call me Queen Mother? Is this child confused by happiness?"
Zhou Ruhua fell to his knees and kowtowed three times, and then kowtowed to Li Shimin.
Li Shimin was happy but at a loss: "This is too sudden. I didn't prepare any gifts."
He reached out and touched a waist badge and handed it to her, saying, "That's good. I'll give this badge to you. You can enter and leave the palace at any time in the future."
When Li Tai heard this, he thought this was much better than gold and silver bracelets. It was so practical, and he quickly thanked Zhou Ruhua.
Ying'er stood aside and saw all this, her face was very ugly.
She didn't expect that this woman would take the lead in her longing for a good relationship with Li Tai.
At this time, Li Tai said to his eldest grandson Wuyou: "Queen mother, why don't you let her stay by your side to serve you temporarily?"
Ying'er was already full of grievances, but after hearing this, she said, "What does King Wei mean by this? Does it mean that we don't serve you well? Madam, is this what King Wei means?"
"No, I just think that my mother is ill and we, as children, should be around to take care of her. Sister Ying'er, don't worry too much."
"King Wei, you must never dare to address her like that. How dare I, a slave, call you your sister?"
Empress Changsun had already smelled the smell of gunpowder and said: "Your Majesty, this child Ying'er has been with me for many years and has served me very attentively. She is not young anymore. I want to give her a big favor. You
What do you think?"
Li Tai became anxious when he heard this. What was she going to do? Was she going to reward Ying'er to him?
He is just a little prince, how can he have so many princesses?
"Okay, as long as you are happy."
This Li Shimin is indeed a maniac who dotes on his wife, and he will accept all her requests.
Ying'er's face was already red at this time.
They have been masters and servants for many years and have the same understanding of each other. She knows what Empress Changsun wants to do at a glance.
Sure enough, Empress Changsun held Ying'er's hand and Li Tai's hand together and said: "People often say that good things come in pairs. Today, my mother will give you one more decision and reward you with Ying'er as well, and there will be one more in the future."
You can rest assured when you take care of your mother."
"But?"
Halfway through Li Tai's words, he heard Ying'er's delicate voice of thanks: "Thank you, Your Majesty and Queen, for your kindness. Ying'er will definitely take good care of King Wei."
That being the case, what else could he say?
It is true that when there is a drought, it will die of drought, and when there is a flood, it will die of waterlogging again.
He got two women at once, and rumors that Li Tai was favored more than the prince were flying all over Chang'an City.
East Palace.
Fang Zhenzhu looked helplessly at her husband who was making the clay figurine.
"Look, does he look like Li Tai?"
Li Chengqian waved a clay figurine in front of her, and then broke the arms and legs of the clay figurine.
"Prince, can you go and see your mother? Her health is getting worse and worse."
"Humph, I'm looking at her? Who's coming to see me? If she hadn't been partial to others, would I have been left out by the emperor? They say pillows are bad, but I finally understand."
"Prince, I'm not telling you, you are too shameless. Even your mother and queen are like this, and you don't go and take a look. Who are you having trouble with?"
"Who else can I have a problem with? Tell me, why is it that I only have one woman and he has two, and he has an unmarried daughter-in-law. I am the prince, why am I always treated less well than him?"
Li Chengqian almost shouted.
"Is it useful to lose your temper here? Besides, what if I give you ten or eight women? Aren't they just decorations?"
When Li Chengqian heard this, he thought this woman was really brave. Was she trying to expose him? She raised her hand and slapped him in the face and cursed: "Fang Zhenzhu, don't think you have a famous father, so what? So what?"
Otherwise, he is still a running dog of our Li family."
Fang Zhenzhu was suddenly beaten, covered her face and cried: "Li Chengqian, you bastard, do you think that you are great because you are the prince? If you hadn't forced my father to ask me, would I have married you?"
"So you don't want to marry me at all? Who do you want to marry? Is it Li Tai? You also come with them to bully me? I'll beat you to death, you bitch?"
After a few "papa" sounds, Fang Zhenzhu's face was immediately imprinted with several handprints.
"Uuuuuuuuuuuuuu" Fang Zhenzhu cried aggrievedly.
She was domestically abused when she was still in the honeymoon period of marriage. She never thought it would be like this. She is still a virgin and Li Chengqian doesn't like her at all.
When her mother asked her about it on the day she returned home, she could only deal with it casually.
"Why are you crying? It would be nice to give you the position of Crown Princess, but that's not enough."
Li Chengqian stamped his feet and went out.
He went to find Rong Xin. He only had that man in his heart.
She wanted to tell Empress Changsun many times, but she felt that the family scandal should not be made public. It would do no good to anyone if this kind of thing spread.
I was in such a bad mood that I thought it would be better to go see Empress Changsun, which would not only show my filial piety but also relieve my boredom.
So I took the cakes just made in the palace and went to Tai Chi Palace.
"Pearl, what's wrong with your face?"
Empress Changsun asked her maid Mei Hua to take the cake and looked at her face in shock.
"It's nothing, I accidentally hit the door frame."
Empress Changsun pulled her over, turned her face to the light, looked at it again and again, and said, "These are obvious fingerprints, how can it be that they were bumped? My child, tell my mother what happened?"
"It's really nothing. I hit it accidentally."
Fang Zhenzhu regretted that she shouldn't have come here. She just felt her cheeks were hot and painful. She thought it was okay, but unexpectedly it left a mark.
Of course she couldn't admit it, otherwise Li Chengqian would think she was filing a complaint.
Queen Changsun told Meihua: "Go and get an egg."
"Queen, what are you doing with the eggs?"
Empress Changsun sighed: "Rolling the egg back and forth on the injured area can remove the mark. My child, I have wronged you. As the eldest son, Chengqian has been spoiled by me. Don't worry, I will definitely teach him a lesson."
Fang Zhenzhu was immediately frightened and shook her head like a rattle: "Mother, he is very good to me. Really, I did it myself."
