Chapter 10 Preemption, a small win

The eldest princess got up early in the morning and went for a walk in the garden as usual. She walked around the mirror pool and sat quietly in the Qixia Pavilion in the heart of the pool. The light became brighter that day. Chaoxia soaked in the clouds and returned to Yuanying Hall for a meal. As soon as she entered the hanging flower door, she saw at a glance that she was wearing a short gauze and a few moon-white hibiscus skirt. The woman was bending down to cut the brocade flowers in the flowerbed, and half of her face became more and more white and beautiful against the background of Fangfei.

The eldest princess is so quiet that she has avoided the morning and evening of the younger generation, but the scenery still often comes to Yuanying Hall to accompany her gossip, but most of them are after the time. Now it's the beginning of Chen, how can she come so early?

Qiu Yue's eyes were sharp. She had already seen the eldest princess and quickly reminded her of the scenery.

The girl handed the scissors to Qiu Yue. She took seven or eight carefully selected blooming flowers and greeted the eldest princess briskly with a happy smile on her face: "Grandma, look how well these flowers are. My granddaughter specially cut them and inserted them into the bottle."

Seeing the beautiful scenery holding two delicate flower buds on her head, her hair gently hung around her waist with beads, curling and graceful, like green bamboo after the rain, elegant and beautiful, the eldest princess rose a feeling of love and pity from the bottom of her heart, stroked her granddaughter's beautiful cheeks like magnolia flowers, and took her little hand and walked into the room together: " Why is it so early today?"

"Come here to eat delicious food." The beautiful scene made her eyebrows bent with a smile.

I heard that the beautiful scenery has not been eaten yet, so the eldest princess quickly ordered Linglong to go to the kitchen to prepare an extra bowl of blue terrier porridge, a basket of beautiful scenery's favorite gold and silver rolls, and a bowl of silver-eared bird's nest with less sugar.

When the ancestors and grandchildren entered the room, Yijing gave the flowers to the maid to insert the bottle, and asked Qiu Yue to go outside to guard not to let others in. He specially told him, "If you see Mother Song coming, remember not to let her see you. Come in time and tell me."

Seeing the mysterious appearance of beautiful scenery, the eldest princess couldn't help but be curious. She leaned against Luohan's couch and said with a smile, "What trick did Jinger play? Is it possible to speak ill of M Mother?

Yijing had a serious face and lifted the curtain to take a look. Seeing that Qiu Yue was really standing on the side of the gate of the Mingtang, she looked out thieves. Then she stepped on a small step to her grandmother and covered her mouth with a string of whispers.

The girl's sweet fragrance and light and gentle voice made the eldest princess happy, and her smile became more and more comfortable. However, when she heard it, her expression became solemn, and her eyebrows frowned slightly. After saying that, beautiful scenery also stood aside cautiously, looking like a little adult without childishness.

"How do you inquire about these things?" After a few breaths, the eldest princess asked.

hurriedly replied carefully: "Sun's daughter originally wanted her brother to ask his classmates in the Guozi prison. She didn't want her brother to say that his father had a new staff, who happened to be from Ninghai... That gentleman is a student of Southern Confucian Dingchangsu, and what he said would not be false."

After saying that, beautiful scenery carefully looked at her grandmother's face, closed her mouth obediently, and did not express her opinion.

There are words that don't need to be too clear. My grandmother is a wise person and always has a deep understanding of great righteousness. I heard that Song Er is such a virtue that she will not let her marry in the evening.

"Did you ask Chunmu to inquire for her?" After another half of the noise, the eldest princess loosened her eyebrows, waved to sit down next to her, and asked kindly.

"Chunmu didn't want to open her mouth... It was her granddaughter who accidentally heard Hongyu and the maid in the yard talking about this, so she asked Chunmu, but she said that because her mother's nephew was in Ninghai, and her parents and family were in Jinyang, she didn't want to leave home to marry... Her granddaughter felt that if she could marry a The eunuch is also a good thing. After all, Chunmu has served her grandson's daughter for several years. Her love is here. She has a good home, and I also feel happy. If I can carefully explore the nature of the second son of Song, it is better to solve the spring and evening, but I don't want to..."

Seeing that her grandmother had a smile again, Yijing was more relieved and simply said, "My granddaughter is reluctant to give up Chunmu, not to mention that M mother's nephew is not good, so she made Chunmu refuse mother, grandmother, I don't know if she will be angry with her granddaughter."

The eldest princess took Yijing's hand and saw her worried face. Her clear eyes seemed to be a little ashamed and couldn't help laughing: "Jing'er is really big. She knows how to care about the maids around her, and it's not in vain to take care of you carefully for so many years... Don't worry, if Chunmu doesn't want to, no one can force you."

Unfortunately, her grandmother did not know the hidden feelings in her previous life, and she did not dare to refuse Mother Song's "gshengqing", so that a gentle woman fell into the tiger's den and wolf's nest. In less than a year, she became a wisp of injustice. They did not know how terrible things happened in Chundu, let alone how many grievances there were.

Qiuyue suddenly lifted the curtain and came in. She lowered her voice and said nervously, "Wuniang, Mother Song is here!"

Yi Jing hurriedly jumped down from Luo Han**, twisted his waist and said, "Grandma, don't tell grandma that I'm coming." After saying this, he hid inside and didn't forget to wave to Qiu Yue.

Looking at the panicked back of the two girls, the eldest princess shook her head helplessly, but suddenly a subtle and very unhappy feeling suddenly appeared in her heart - even Wu Niang was so afraid of Song? Isn't Song's nature too strong?

Mama Song calculated once last night and didn't sleep well. Today, because she was thinking about going back to the eldest princess, she got up early and rushed to wait for the eldest princess to eat. Therefore, her eyelids fell a touch of blue and looked gray. When the little maids in Yuanyingtang saw her entering, people kept asking questions. Well, Mother Song just nod and didn't bother to talk to them. She went straight to the eldest princess's room.

Lifting the brocade curtain, I saw Luo Han** sitting in front of the embroidered screen, holding a jasper tea bowl in her hand, as if she was thinking about it. Mother Song hurriedly piled up a smile on her face, restrained the sharp color in her eyes, and came forward to greet her.

"How many times have you said that I won't let you be so diligent, but you don't know how to enjoy some blessings." Although it was a scolding, the eldest princess did not mean to blame her in her tone.

"I'm old and sleep lightly. I'm idle at home. It's better to come in and chat with the princess." Mother Song smiled.

After the master and servant said a few words, Linglong led several maids to bring breakfast and quietly placed them on the big kang near the window, but they did not see the beautiful scenery. She couldn't help but be a little confused. The eldest princess sat on the kang, looked at Linglong, and smiled and said, "Jing'er originally said that she would accompany me to eat with me today, but there is no one at this time. I think it's after sleeping for hours. Anyway, you can pick two kinds of food that she likes and send them to Luqing Garden.

Linglong was stunned and would be sorry for a moment. Although she didn't know what had happened, she only smiled and agreed. She really put Yijing's share in the food box, carried it out, and told the maids in the yard not to talk too much and mentioned that Wu Niang came to greet her this morning.

In the room, Mother Song stood aside and served diligently, with cloth dishes, and consumed half a column of incense after breakfast.

When the eldest princess rinsed her mouth with tea, Mother Song helped her to sit down in front of the makeup mirror and still combed her in a bun: "The princess's hair is really good, still like when she was young. The luster and smoothness are still not reduced, and it is still so rich, unlike maidservants. At this time, she can only rely on the fake bun, and the white hair is also It is more and more."

The eldest princess took a glance earlier and did not see the beautiful scenery and Qiuyue. She expected that the two must be hidden in the back green gauze cabinet and did not worry. After listening to Mother Song's words, she followed her words and said, "To comb her hair, Biluo's craftsmanship is the best. Unfortunately, she had a hard life. She went early and did not leave a child left. Female." Speaking of the maid around her, the eldest princess smiled and said, "Xue Yan is the most careful. If she is a man, she can be an official of the household department. Now she only assists with Huang in the affairs of the state government, which is really a little talented and useless."

The ebony comb in his hand was stagnant, but after a breath, it slid again. Mother Song's smile at the corners of her lips never disappeared: "I remember that Aning did a good job, and people were also born to be selected, so there was a blessing in the future. Now it is also full of children and grandchildren. Only slaves and maidservants, the most of them are stupid. They are not abandoned by the princess. At this time Only then can there be a place to settle down.

The eldest princess shook her head: "You are too humble. In those years, your mandarin duck sword killed many enemy generals. If you are a man, I'm afraid you have already been awarded the title. You are a left-handed person. I have the intention to find a good match for you, but you politely refused. In order to serve me, you will not marry for life. This loyalty is What others don't have anymore is to suffer yourself. In fact, it doesn't have to be like this.

"It's a great blessing for the maidservant who doesn't want to marry and can stay with the princess all the time, and it's no worse than Aning." Mother Song smiled and said, "How many people envy the princess's letter to the maidservant? I can't wait for such a blessing."

"Forum, Brother Spoke is filial to you. Now he has Ming'er. Your grandson is also three years old. You have to let your daughter-in-law take him in and let me have a look."

Mama Song hurriedly agreed and took a bun for the eldest princess and wore a jade hairpin. It was simple and elegant, which satisfied the eldest princess very much.

The master and servant left the makeup mirror and continued to gossip.

Seeing that the eldest princess was in a happy mood, Mother Song said: "The girl is stable and beautiful. I liked it. That day, I chatted with her and learned that it was sixteen years old, and the maidservant was moved... She served the fifth mother in the Green Qingyuan, which is the most useful. If she really married Ninghai far away, the fifth mother There is a lack of an arm... but this is indeed a good marriage.

"What you mean..."

"The eldest grandson of the slave's eldest brother was crowned two years ago. Because a Taoist man saw his fate when he was a child, he said that it would be a disaster for marriage too young. He had to be resolved when he was older, and he could not marry the southern son... The slave's nephew wrote a letter to ask for a gentle woman in Jinyang."

is coming! The eldest princess subconsciously glanced at the blue gauze cabinet, but saw that it was silent, and her heart could calm down, but she said, "But after all, spring and evening are slaves..."

"That said, she is indeed a rare good child. Besides, the maids in the prince's mansion are better than those small jaspers. If the princess can be kind and get rid of the slaves in the spring and evening, there is nothing to worry about. After all, my nephew is a white man, and the famous family also sees him."

Jing'er didn't say that Chunmu Niang had rejected Song. Why did she still beg her to come to her? Does she have to push Chunmu into the fire pit? In her heart, the eldest princess didn't show any on her face, and only pondered for a moment: "At present, Xia Yun is diligent, but she is a stuffy gourd. She doesn't care about things as usual. Qiu Yue and Qiu Shuang are still small. In the past, she used to follow Jinger's mischievousness, and only spring and dusk can I rest assured that she is in the green garden."

Mother Song smiled and said, "There should also be a stewmaker in Wu Niang's yard."

"I picked it up for two or three years, but I don't think who is suitable."

"If the princess can trust the maidservant, let the maidservant stare at it..." Naturally, Mother Song said this sentence. She only felt that these two little things. For the sake of many years, the eldest princess will not refuse. When she gets married at the end of spring, it is reasonable for Hongyu to be promoted to a first-class maid to serve Wu Niang. Cheng Zhang, then find a way to solve the problem of Mother Yang's family. The matter of Lvqingyuan is not under the control of their grandparents and grandchildren.

The abacus is playing loudly, but suddenly I heard a sentence--

"If Chunmu has a small relationship with Jing'er, if she suddenly gets married far away, I'm afraid Jing'er will be reluctant to give up... Besides, she is a slave maidservant. Your nephew is the son of an official eunuch, and the two are somewhat out of a good match."

Mother Song's face stiffened and looked carefully at the eldest princess's expression, but did not see any unheasiness. Then she was slightly relieved and then fought for it again: "The maidservant really likes the appearance of spring and evening. Besides, the eldest brother wrote to beg in front of him. The people outside did not know the bottom, and the maidservant was not worry... If the fifth mother knows Dao Chunmu will only be happy for her to get rid of slavery in the future.

This words gracefully illustrates a layer of meaning. Spring twilight serves the beautiful scenery, and there are all the merits and hard work. She provides such a good future for spring and twilight. If the masters are profound and righteous, of course, they will not destroy the future of spring and twilight.

If the eldest princess did not listen to the beautiful scenery, she would have agreed to this good thing, but at this time... the eldest princess finally showed an unhappy look on her face.

M Mother Song was stunned and didn't know where her words were wrong.

"As far as I know, her mother may not be willing to marry in the evening of spring. Hasn't she already rejected Song?" At this time, the eldest father still wanted to save some face for Mother Song.

No wonder Chunmu Niang was fearless yesterday. It turned out that she came to the princess early in the morning and put eye drops on it! Mother Song was shocked and angry. In an instant, she felt anger in the bottom of her heart, gritted her teeth, and knelt down in front of the eldest princess: "Princes! The maidservant was beautiful, and she did not refuse. At first, her mother also accepted the maidservant's gift. The maidservant only waited for a suitable opportunity and came to beg the princess for her kindness. Unexpectedly, they changed their gossip... The maidservant has always been trusted by the princess. Who in the house dares to be such a slave maidservant... Besides, the maidservant has gone home. The letter only waits for someone from Ninghai to propose marriage... The behavior of his parents in spring has hurt the face of slaves and maidservants, but I'm afraid they didn't see the princess..."

In the Bisha cupboard, beautiful scenery and Qiu Yue heard these words clearly. Qiu Yue was shocked, but beautiful scenery sneered secretly. What a domineering tricky slave dared to speak so bluntly in front of his grandmother, clearly relying on his grandmother's trust and not to do anything else. People pay attention to it. In this way, even if my grandmother is dissatisfied with her, she thinks that she is temperamental. She is a little domineering, but she is not choked by her master, and she is still loyal...

M Mother Song is indeed a qualified opponent. Based on this alone, it is really difficult to fundamentally shake her position.

Fortunately, the scenery did not expect to bring down Mother Song so quickly, and some doubts had not been solved. If Grandma just drove Mother Song out of the house in anger, she would teach Mother Song to take advantage.

The hatred of life and death, how can she retreat?

Yingjing clenched her fist, but heard her grandmother sneer-

"A Song, when I am used to knowing your temperament, I am the most decisive, and arrogant in my bones. You have been following me since Chuzhou, serving in front of the saddle and behind the horse, following me to fight in the south and north, and followed me to this duchy. We have experienced life and death, share wealth and wealth. We have been together for decades, and have not been like ordinary masters for decades. So, no matter how much you pointed out to your subordinates in the past, I didn't pay attention to it, because you still know this!" The eldest princess's eyes were slightly raised and seemed to be fierce: "But this time, you are really too much!"

Mother Song was shocked. She didn't understand what this meant too much. She subconsciously wanted to distinguish it, but she saw the eldest princess wave her hand and said, "What kind of virtue is your nephew? Do you still need me to say it myself?"

Like a shocking Thunderbolt, Mother Song was stunned and thought a lot for a moment.

Hateful! Chunmu's parents actually inquired about the reputation of their nephew and grandson. Yesterday, they didn't reveal their mouths, but they directly stabbed the eldest princess! Deny is impossible. Everyone knows the notoriety of his nephew and grandson in Ninghai. At that time, they thought that their parents were just domestic slaves. They used to look timid, honest and humble people. How could they have expected them to have such ability? This time, I overturned the boat in the gutter and let the eagle peck its eyes!

She gritted her teeth with hatred, but Mother Song's face showed a frightened look at the right time. She quickly turned her eyes red and knelt straight on the ground.

"For so many years, I have been serving Jing'er wholeheartedly. The two of them are like sisters. You know the evil deeds of your nephew and force her to marry Ninghai. If there is a good or bad thing in the future, how uncomfortable will Jinger be? Even I have no face to face my parents in the evening of spring!" The more the eldest princess said, the more angry she became: "I heard that your nephew bullied the people and beat them in your name. Not only did you not know the constraints, but you even wanted to make Chun Twilight... It's all my fault that I indulged you, so that you don't know the importance now!"

For decades, Mother Song has been so heavily criticized by the eldest princess. She was angry and worried. She had a pale old face, kowtowed and cried without hesitation: "It's all because the slave maidservant was confused for a moment... Knowing that her nephew is unworthy, she still wants to hide it." How long has it been since you knelt down? I only felt the pain when my knees fell on the floor, and the spontaneous humiliation was even more heartbreaking: "I only think that he is still young, even if it is absurd, it is not a big mistake. In the spring and evening, I am virtuous and steady. If I can raise something by my side after marriage, I may not be able to let the prodigal son turn back... I should not deceive the princess... I have discarded the princess's trust in slaves. "

"Let me ask you, do you know how many maids your nephew treated me harshly and let them die unjustly?"

"I only heard that he was so fierce. He often fought and caused trouble. He also sent home books to restrain his eldest brother and nephew more... I really don't know that he still has human life..." Mother Song took a few steps on her knees: "Princess, I only think that my nephew is the son of an official eunuch, and it is a high climb to get married in the past few decades. In the past decades, because of business Lord, the servants of the State Government are respectful of the slaves and maidservants, and gradually make the slaves' maidservants' eyes higher than the top. This marriage proposal is from sincerity. Once rejected, they can't help but think that it is the Chundu family who does not know how to praise, and is unwilling to act recklessly and forget their own duty.

At this point, she had to give up the spring twilight, only to forgive this time for the sake of decades of love. Mother Song silently warned herself that she would be angry and cried until she was about to cry.

"The slave is humble. Although the law stipulates that it can be sent down by the master, it is a living life. Your nephew is domineering and fierce by relying on the merits of his father. If he is no longer disciplined, he will cause great trouble in the future! You don't need to mention the matter of Chun Twilight. Let's go back and write to Ninghai and let Song Baihu discipline his son well. If I hear that the Song family has the evil deeds of swindling people's lives and bullying... Don't blame me for not remembering the past!"

Seeing that Mother Song cried pitifully, the eldest princess was a little soft-hearted. Thinking that this matter did not lead to any irreparable consequences, she helped Mother Song up: "At the beginning, the four maids around me, Biluo went early. Aning is now far away in Jiangzhou, and only you and Xueyan are still by my side, especially for you, I It's close. I know that you are impatient, and because you are worried about your nephew's marriage, you can't think about it for a while. At this time, you and I have talked about things, and don't have any grudges in the future.

M Mother Song naturally thanked her for her kindness. She showed her own feelings with tears in tears. She beat her chest and showed her loyalty, which made the beautiful scenery in the Bisha cupboard listen to the lake. She couldn't help admiring Mother Song's adaptability. Sure enough, she was indeed a person with profound Taoism. Seeing that the situation was wrong, she immediately honestly admitted her mistake, did not lie, and straightforward. On the dark side, with such a sincere attitude, if I hadn't experienced her previous life and knew her face, I'm afraid I would have felt sorry.

Looking at Qiu Yue, the shocked look was gone, and her little face was full of understanding and sympathy for Mother Song.

A small victory in one game at least saved the spring and evening and saved her fate, but it is still a long way to uncover the true face of Mother Song and make her unable to die...

When I was thinking about it, I listened to my grandmother's voice - "Come out."
