Chapter 447 Concubine
Yun Shang also brought gifts for the two little guys. She had packed up the dowry and Xiao Che's belongings in the past few days, and had packed out a lot of trinkets.Someone sent one copy to the two younger brothers, and left one copy for Xiao Yunshuo and Xiao Huan.
Xiao Yunshuo was given a whip, which her character would like.
Sure enough, Xiao Yunshuo was extremely happy after getting the whip.
The sword given to Xiao Huan was probably made by Xiao Che for Siyuan and Sirui. It was shorter than a normal sword and suitable for children to practice.
Xiao Huan's originally sullen face couldn't control his expression after receiving the sword.He was already cute, but his expression of holding back a smile made him even more adorable.
"Brother, you learn slowly, I will protect you in the future." Xiao Yunshuo held her whip eagerly, eager to rush out and fight with others.
"Sister Huang, you are a woman, and I should protect you."
Although Xiao Huan is young, he still feels that he should protect his sister.
After all, because he was young, he couldn't help but secretly play with the sword in his hand.
Yun Shang smiled and looked at the siblings, "How about I teach you?"
"Sister-in-law, can you use the whip?"
"Yes, I can also use swordsmanship. Do you want to learn it, Brother Huan?"
Xiao Yunshuo nodded desperately, and Xiao Huan's eyes lit up.
The whip was not easy to control, so Yun Shang first taught Xiao Yunshuo how to control the whip.Then he took the sword and made a sword flower, and Xiao Huan's eyes brightened even more.
"Sister-in-law, please teach me." He still bowed politely, but his expression betrayed him.
Xiao Yunshuo immediately said from the side: "Brother, you have to smile at the emperor's wife first, and the emperor's wife will teach you." She liked to tease her brother, especially when he couldn't pretend to be calm.
Xiao Huan looked embarrassed. The book said that happiness and anger cannot be expressed through expression, and likes and dislikes cannot be expressed through expression. If he smiled, would it be considered happiness as expression?
His entangled look made Xiao Yunshuo laugh.
The little guy looked at his sister with some annoyance and told himself that this was her sister, so just laugh.
Yun Shang and the Queen were also amused by the siblings and laughed. While they were laughing, a voice that sounded quite pleasant came from the door.
"I heard Liu Yatou laughing from a distance. Tell me, what good thing happened to you?" As he spoke, the emperor walked in from the outside, followed by a woman who was still charming.
The woman is not as beautiful as the queen, but she is dressed very enchantingly and looks charming.
When she saw the person coming in, the smile on the queen's face faded, and she whispered beside Yun Shang, "It's Concubine Zhao."
"I have seen my father."
Yun Shang stood up and saluted the emperor together with Xiao Yunshuo's sister and brother, and then greeted Concubine Zhao.
Although Xiao Che is the Queen's biological son, only the Queen knows that to the outside world he is only the son of the noble concubine. The imperial concubine Zhou and the imperial concubine Zhao are of the same rank.
Concubine Zhao kept looking at Yun Shang. She brought the emperor here today because she wanted to meet this princess from Da Chu.
"Father, look, the fifth emperor's sister-in-law gave the son a whip, and also gave the younger brother a sword. The younger brother likes it very much." Xiao Yunshuo immediately showed off her gifts to the emperor. She has always been very favored.
There are many princes and princesses in the palace, and the most favored princesses are Xiao Yunyue and Xiao Yunshuo.
Xiao Yunyue's dancing skills as a child were outstanding and she was very popular with the emperor.
Later, she took the initiative to bring up the marriage, which made the emperor unhappy. The Southern Kingdom and Dachu were evenly matched, so there was no need for a marriage.But he liked this daughter, and after grinding him a few times, he agreed.
Who would have thought that Pan Hongcai died in Dachu after the marriage failed.
Forget it, both Xiao Sheng and the envoy said that Xiao Yunyue and Pan Hongcai had an affair. The two wanted to elope, but Pan Hongcai was accidentally killed.
The Pan family took the initiative to propose marriage, and finally Xiao Yunyue married into the Pan family.
Now the most favored person in the palace is Xiao Yunshuo.
The emperor liked this cheerful and innocent daughter. Everyone else was afraid of him, but this daughter was not afraid and was particularly close to him.
Concubine Zhao has been sizing up Yun Shang and has to admit that she is indeed a rare beauty.She had seen it during the palace banquet, but she couldn't see it clearly from a distance. When she saw it up close, she somewhat understood why Xiao Che was confused.
With such a beauty, it is difficult for other women to take notice.
but!
"Princess Rui doesn't seem to be frightened. That's good. This happened right after Lao Wu left. The emperor has been worried about it." At this point, Concubine Zhao sighed again, "Hey, actually the princess is also at fault for this matter. .
We women should be generous. If you hadn't rejected Qian's family, this wouldn't have happened. "
After Concubine Zhao finished speaking, the queen showed a hint of ridicule in her eyes.
This is not to persuade people to be generous. No matter how nice the concubine says, she is still a concubine.If the mistress was not generous, how could she exist?
Yun Shang looked at Concubine Zhao with a serious expression, "I am the princess of Chu. According to etiquette, the concubine is not allowed to take concubines."
Dachu and Nanguo were originally the same country, and their rules and etiquette had many similarities.For example, a concubine was not allowed to take a concubine unless he was still childless at the age of 40.Since she was the princess, Xiao Che was the consort, so there was no problem in rejecting those women.
"They clearly know my identity and they are flouting the rules by doing this. What's wrong with my refusal?
Besides, the Qian family keeps assassins behind their backs, and when they have conflicts with others, they will let the killers come to their door. Does the mother-in-law think that such people should be tolerated? "
The Qian family had committed a lot of crimes when their house was ransacked, and the evidence was conclusive. Concubine Zhao would have made a big mistake if she wanted to use the Qian family to talk things out.
Concubine Zhao's expression became increasingly ugly. She originally thought that Xiao Che might have kept someone here, but now she realized that this princess from Dachu was really not that simple. No wonder the Duke's mansion and her family had nothing to do with her.
The queen has a good temper. She understands the emperor's temper. There will definitely be many women in the harem. If she were jealous, she would be pissed to death.
So she is very tolerant to these women in the harem, but she really hates Concubine Zhao.
"Shang Shang is right. Even without the incident at Prince Rui's Mansion, the Qian family has already killed many of their colleagues. If they have competition or conflicts with them, they will kill them secretly. If they dare to come and assassinate the princess today, will they be punished by the emperor next time? , also want to assassinate the emperor?"
It's hard for Yun Shang to say these words, but the Queen can.
After the queen finished speaking, the emperor sitting next to her also turned cold, and looked at Concubine Zhao with disapproval in her eyes.
Concubine Zhao is old and confused, and cannot even think about this matter.
It was he who ordered the Qian family to be severely punished. Do you think he was wrong?
Concubine Zhao noticed the displeasure in the emperor's eyes and gritted her teeth angrily, glaring at Yun Shang angrily, "Since Concubine Rui doesn't admit that she is jealous, why not let me make the decision and give Lao Wu a concubine."
As soon as she finished speaking, the queen immediately retorted.
