The Qin army was on the side and the locust plague was passing through, which made the situation of the whole country not good, especially Han Wangan. This Han Wangan, who had just recovered from the shock last year, fell into panic again. Just like last year, even Hu Meiren
It could not soothe the uneasiness in King Han's heart.
People who had a bad life were not only Han Wangan, but also many people, such as Mrs. Hu.
The eldest lady of the Huoyu Villa of the Baiyue clan was rich and wealthy when she was young. However, she suffered a sudden change when she was a girl. Her lover died and her biological daughter was separated. In the end, she married a person she didn't like, so Liu Yi, the Korean Sima.
Marrying someone you don't like is an extremely painful thing. Mrs. Hu used to be depressed because of this all the year round. But after Liu Yi died in the war last year, Mrs. Hu discovered that although Liu Yi was annoying, at least he could give her
Hold up a world.
And now?
Now Mrs. Hu senses the danger.
A widow who is widowed, and this widow also has money. For most men, a rich widow is really difficult to refuse.
If this rich widow is still very handsome, then she cannot be let go.
What's more, Mrs. Hu also has a sister who is the favored concubine of King Han. In addition to money and beauty, Mrs. Hu also has connections.
Therefore, throughout South Korea, all men who thought they had some strength set their sights on this woman.
Therefore, Mrs. Hu is naturally very annoyed, and in this kind of trouble, there are dangers hidden. There are some people, even she does not dare to refuse.
"Sister, have you lost a lot of weight recently?" While Mrs. Hu was looking at herself in pity, a woman in a pink dress walked into her room.
She is Mrs. Hu's sister, and is now the most favored woman around Han Wangan. Her petite figure is the most suitable delicacy for middle-aged people like Han Wangan who are gradually unable to do what they want.
"Sister, why are you here?" Mrs. Hu said in surprise when she saw the visitor, and the worries in her heart were relieved a lot.
"Sister, come visit me. How are you doing recently?" said Hu Meiren, who was very similar to Mrs. Hu.
"What good can it do? I have unwanted guests coming to my door every day, and it has been even more annoying recently." Mrs. Hu said helplessly.
"It's not an option to continue like this. These people and sisters are still able to refuse. What if one day they meet someone they can't refuse? Moreover, these people are fine and can only force each other openly. If they meet someone,
Those who are unreasonable in the world are troublesome." Hu Meiren took her sister, Mrs. Hu's hand and said.
"Yes, there is no solution after all. What can we, a weak woman, do? Just like us back then, we are also helpless." Mrs. Hu said helplessly.
She had no choice back then, but how could she control her own destiny now?
"I do have a solution here, but I don't know if my sister is willing to give up the wealth in front of her." Hu Meiren said.
"Is there really anything my sister can do?" Mrs. Hu said in surprise.
"As for what is rich or not, that doesn't matter. Can this be considered rich now?" Mrs. Hu said with a bitter smile.
"Sister, I heard that a man came from Qin the day before yesterday." Hu Meiren said.
"I've been very upset these days, but I haven't paid much attention to outside affairs. Sister, you can tell me in detail whether this person from Qin State is here, and how he has anything to do with me, sister." Mrs. Hu said in surprise.
The Qin State and myself seem to be too far apart. No matter how we think about it, there shouldn't be any connection.
"Sister, listen to me and tell me slowly. That man is from Xianyang Palace and was sent by King Qin." Hu Meiren said.
"King of Qin? That King of Qin's government?" Although Mrs. Hu had heard nothing about the outside world, she had heard about the master of Qin.
"Exactly, last year the Qin army came to attack, and the king sent the little princess Honglian to the Qin army to defeat him. The little princess is now in Xianyang Palace and seems to be very favored by the Qin king." Hu Meiren said.
"Sister, what does this have to do with my affairs?" Mrs. Hu asked puzzledly.
"Sister, don't be anxious. This matter originally had nothing to do with my sister, but now it does. Prince Qin sent someone to Xinzheng to meet with the king yesterday and ask him for the little princess's former maid. Now,
The king is preparing to send several of the little princess's former maids to Qin, and in addition, he also needs to select a few more people." Hu Meiren said.
"Sister, you mean?" Mrs. Hu vaguely thought of a possibility. If that is the case, it seems...
"If sister is willing to give up the wealth and honor in front of her and enter the Qin Palace as an ordinary palace servant, sister, I can find a way to include her among those maids." Hu Meiren said.
"This?" Although Mrs. Hu had already made a guess, she was still surprised when she heard her sister Hu Meiren say what she said.
"Is there any place in the world that is safer than Xianyang Palace? Even the Han Palace is nothing in front of it." Hu Meiren said.
"Sister, you don't know that when the Qin army came to the city last year, there was an atmosphere of fear everywhere in the Han palace. Even the Han palace was not safe in front of the Qin army."
"Sister, Xianyang Palace is indeed the safest place in the world, but..." Mrs. Hu said no more.
Although Xianyang Palace is safe, it is a completely unfamiliar place. What's more, is it really safe after entering Xianyang Palace?
"I know that my sister is worried, but the little princess is living well there, and I had a good relationship with her when she was in the Han Palace. There shouldn't be any problem if she takes care of my sister," Hu Meiren said.
"Sister, let me think about this matter. After all, it is Xianyang Palace, so it is not a good place." Mrs. Hu said worriedly.
"Sister, there is no truly safe place for people like us. It would be good to find a shelter." Hu Meiren said.
"That's what I say, but that is Xianyang Palace after all." Mrs. Hu said.
"My sister, that's Xianyang Palace, but it's actually no different from Hanwang Palace. It's just because of its owner that it looks like a dragon's pond and a tiger's den. In fact, it's not that scary." Hu Meiren said helplessly.
This sister of hers is good at everything, but her character is too cowardly. The fear of Xianyang Palace is only for people like Yu Han Wangan, and she does not put her authority on a woman.
"Let me think about this matter carefully." Mrs. Hu couldn't make up her mind for a while.
"Sister, we don't have much time. The people from Qin State want to take those maids back before the little princess's birthday. They may leave tomorrow." Hu Meiren said slightly anxiously.
"Let me think about it, let me think about it," Mrs. Hu said hesitantly.
"Sister, alas." Hu Meiren looked at her biological sister in front of her and felt helpless for a moment.
Although her sister is a few years older, she has a cowardly personality, and most of the time she can only protect her as her younger sister.
But now, there is nothing I can do. Although Xianyang Palace is not a good place, it is better than Xinzheng after all.
Since you are bound to be bullied, why not choose the strongest person.
