Chapter 1 Heartache
In the twelfth lunar month in the north, it snowed heavily, and the heavy snow for several days turned the whole capital white.
In the prince's house, several sweeping maids gathered in the porch with brooms. One of the girl with a round face in a double bun blinked her eyes and whispered to everyone, "Have you heard that the crown princess is kneeling in Mengxi Garden with the eldest grandson in her arms. Tut, she has been kneeling all day." The maid with two small braids on the side came forward and said, "Sister Mei Yu, the prince doesn't care about the crown princess so much, but the eldest grandson is really a royal descendant. If you make trouble in front of the emperor..."
The girl who combed the double-ring bun stretched out her fingers that had been caged in her sleeve and poked the speaker's forehead. "What does the little hoof know? Although the crown princess is the daughter of the prime minister, she is also a concubine. If Master Yunhui of Jingming Temple said that this woman's life was precious a few years ago, how could she have been so blessed? I still listen to Liu Yu in the front yard. It is said that when the prince was the prince, he liked the eldest lady of the prime minister's mansion. He just listened to the master and used this woman as a stepping stone.
Everyone was stunned, and the maid Mei Yu, who spoke, became more and more proud. "After marrying her, the former prince made many mistakes and was demoted to a commoner in less than half a year. The prince stood out among many princes and let the emperor set up a prince."
"The crown princess is a poor person..." When the maid opened her mouth to speak, Mei Yu immediately became unhappy. She thought that the crown princess was beautiful. Although she was gentle, she still made life jealous. Thinking of this, Mei Yu raised her neck and said, "There is nothing to say anywhere about the direct concubine. The eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion is the Prime Minister. The prime minister's direct daughter, her mother's wife, is also the precious daughter of the general Zhenyuanhou. You said that the crown princess is a little concubine, and her biological mother is just the daughter of the county magistrate. Where does the capital come from? Didn't you see it these days? The lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion frequently enters and goes out of the Prince's Mansion. It's not far to enter..."
"Cough..." A majestic voice came, which scared the impassioned Mei Yu. Seeing the person coming clearly, Mei Yu couldn't help but fall to the ground immediately, "Fu's mother..."
The middle-aged woman standing in front of her is the close mother of the crown princess, Fu's mother.
"How dare you chew the master's tongue behind your back? Is it possible that you can't live? Is the prince's house a place to raise a young lady?"
After a few words, there was not much reproach. Mei Yu stood up cleverly with a smile on his face, "Mother Fu, it's also possible for us to have a rest in such a heavy snow. Mom Fu, don't be angry. You are delicate and expensive, and you don't have to worry about these things."
Fu's mother turned her eyes and patted Mei Yu, "You girl..."
Everyone didn't say anything. Although Fu's mother was a princess, she never punished the girl casually. Even if she heard any bad remarks, she always murmured.
Everyone knows that the sky of the prince's mansion is going to change.
"Squeak--" The thick door was pushed open, and several maids rolled up the curtain in front of them. Xia Mengning looked up at the man in front of her and the woman beside him.
"Your Highness, Wu'er's high fever does not subside. Please call the imperial doctor to treat Wu'er." After saying that, regardless of the snow on the ground, he kowtowed desperately.
The prince's eyes were full of contempt. He looked at the person who knelt in front of him and kowtowed to him without any sympathy. "I have said everything. If you go your own way, you will disobey the prince's orders."
"Your Highness!" Xia Mengning raised her head, and her pale face was full of pleading, "Wu'er is your child. Now he has a high fever. Even if His Highness is angry, even if he comes to me, Wu'er is still young and asks His Highness to help Wu'er."
Xia Mengxi, wearing a pink mink velvet cloak, slightly squeezed the palm of his hand. B bitch, don't forget to show off her children at this moment. What about the emperor's eldest grandson? I also have a way for him not to see tomorrow's sun.
"Your Highness." Open your mouth gently, with infinite tenderness in the voice.
Changsun Mo turned his head and looked at the beauty beside him with a worried face. "Don't be afraid. If you don't like them, I'll drive them away." With that, he waved his hand and said, "Come on..."
"Your Highness." Although Xia Mengxi has a wide cloak, she still shows her beautiful figure. The tassels under the plum blossom hairpin in her hair shake slightly, shaking Changsun Mo's eyes for a moment.
"Your Highness, my sister is also eager to save her son. Xi'er is fine today. Please bypass my sister."
Over there, Xia Mengning kowtowed anxiously, "Your Highness, please bypass Wu'er, please bypass Wu'er."
A trace of hesitation flashed in Changsun Mo's eyes. Xia Mengxi was not good, and immediately winked at the maid Biyi next to him.
When Biyi saw the look in her eyes, she immediately went forward to salute. "Your Highness doesn't know anything. Today, the young lady kindly took the bird's nest to the emperor's eldest grandson, but unexpectedly, the emperor's eldest grandson did not accept it, but also overturned the bird's nest bowl, burned the young lady, and insulted the young lady."
The hesitation in Changsun Mo's eyes faded, and Wuer turned into a layer of anger. Wuer would hurt Xier. It must be Xia Mengning, a woman behind her, who instigated. This despicable woman, brazenly sat in the position of the crown princess, but still wanted to be able to control everything.
Xia Mengxi looked at the gathered look in Changsun Mo's eyes and smiled in his heart. Xia Mengning, you are like this now. Let's see how you turn over.
There was an angry look on his face, "Biyi, you can't stop talking. Can you say it casually?" Biyi gently stepped aside and didn't say anything more.
Changsun Mo was so angry that he said, "Xia Mengning, you instigated the emperor's eldest grandson to abuse Xi'er. After that, he didn't know how to repent and talk nonsense. It's really abominable. Go down and get fifty boards."
Xia Mengning was stunned and looked at the handsome face of the man in front of her. Is this the person she loved? She was a concubine, but at that time, he was still a prince. He took the initiative to propose marriage. At that time, how happy she was to marry him. She took care of him wholeheartedly, blocked the assassin's knife for her, and went everywhere for him. Minister, will you exchange these fifty boards today?
No, no, she doesn't accept it, she doesn't want to!
"Your Highness!" Xia Mengning opened her mouth and shouted, but the eldest grandson Mo turned around and left. The bodyguards beside him came forward to take away the emperor's eldest grandson. Xia Mengning was dragged aside before she could shout.
"Wu'er...Wu'er..." Xia Mengning climbed over there desperately, "Give me back the child, you are so bold..."
The two bodyguards held down Xia Mengning to prevent her from moving, and it was useless for her to shout.
"sister!" A gust of fragrant wind came to her face. Xia Mengxi stood in front of Xia Mengning, with exquisite facial features and meticulous buns. She looked at her sarcastically and just shook her head gently.
"Sister, please help Wu'er, please..."
"Sister, this is the order of His Royal Highness. How can I command it casually?"
"My sister is the beloved person of Your Highness. Your Highness will definitely listen to my sister's words. Please, sister..." Xia Mengxi looked at the person lying in front of him with a smile. He was really happy. The daughter of the concubine was lucky enough to marry the prince. If he hadn't been worried about the wrong treasure, it would not have been Xia Mengning's turn to be a bitch. People.
"Sister," Xia Mengxi took out a Juanpa from her sleeve, squatted down and gently wiped the mud on her face. This behavior was indeed sisterly in the eyes of others. Unexpectedly, Xia Mengxi opened her mouth and whispered softly, "My sister's love, I'm afraid that Your Highness will avoid most of them. The emperor's eldest grandson did not overturn the bird's nest, and Did I deliberately overturn the bird's nest and the child's nature, so I cried and said that I was not good. Sister, in fact, a well-sighted person can see it. Why does Your Highness believe me?
No matter how vicious the words were, Xia Mengning was stunned. A pair of fire-breathing eyes looked at the person in front of her. It turned out to be Wu'er, this snake and scorpion woman, "Xia Mengxi, Wu'er is still so young. How can you do it? You despicable and shameless woman."
Xia Mengxi smiled slightly, and her peach blossom-like face was a little twisted. "You are just a concubine. I am the eldest lady of the Prime Minister's Mansion. What qualifications do you have to compete with me? If I didn't want to get married in a hurry today, how could I fall into your hands?"
Xia Mengning looked at her with flames in her eyes. "In those years, my father ordered that the prince proposed marriage in person. Why did you talk about me?"
"Hahaha!" Xia Mengxi smiled gently, with unrecoverable sarcasm and pity in his eyes, "Dad? Do you deserve to be called Dad? In those years, the prince asked to marry the daughter of the Xia family, but my father loved me and wanted me to marry the prince. At that time, the situation was in turmoil, so I had to marry you first and throw stones to ask for directions. Today, you should also return these things to me. For so many years, you have enjoyed my glory and wealth. The life of the emperor's eldest grandson is just the one I received from you. Just a little interest."
After saying that, he stood up and threw Juanpa in front of Xia Mengning and said loudly, "Sister, don't insist on this. Not everyone dares to disobey His Highness's orders."
The white Juanpa fell down leisurely, and a stream character was embroidered in the lower right corner. Xia Mengning closed her eyes fiercely and remembered that in the prime minister's mansion, she had always respected her mother and eldest sister. She was even more filial to her father. It turned out that she was just a pawn in their hands. Now that the prince is stable, she is useless. Dad Dad can't wait to get rid of himself and send his sister into the house.
My most reliable father, my most intimate sister, my most respected mother, and my most beloved man are all like this to me!!
Now, there is nothing left. As soon as the fifty boards are finished, I'm afraid she won't even have her life. Xia Mengning turned her head and looked at Wu'er in the bodyguard's arms, and her heart was full of grief.
"Miss, Miss..." A shout came, and Xia Mengning turned her head to look. It turned out to be her maid, Zhulian.
"Zhulian, why are you here?" Zhulian knelt on the ground and kowtowed desperately. "Brother bodyguard, please let go of my young lady. I'm afraid this board will be dead. I beg you." With that, he kowtowed desperately on the ground.
The bodyguards couldn't bear to bear it. After all, they are all men. It's too much to beat a weak woman.
"Zhulian, Wu'er... go to save Wu'er..." Xia Mengning shouted. Zhulian is her dowry girl. She used to serve her biological mother's fourth aunt. A few days ago, her clothes were cut for no reason. Fu's mother insisted that it was made by Zhulian, so she drove her to the sweeping girl. Now, there is only She is still by her side.
"Miss, Miss!" An exclamation came, and Zhulian shouted loudly, "The emperor's eldest grandson is out of breath..." No, no, no!
Wu'er!
Xia Mengning desperately wanted to break free from the bodyguard's hand, but a familiar voice came from there, "Princess, the old slave came to prison on the order of His Royal Highness."
Mother Fu came over with calm steps, and Zhulian shouted anxiously, "Mom Fu, why are you talking to the young lady like this? Are you crazy?" Fu's mother took a fierce look at her and said with a smile, "The old slave is not the servant of the crown princess. In this prince's mansion, only His Royal Highness is the master." After saying that, he shouted to the guard who was stunned, "Why don't you hit it quickly? Your Highness will see it later. Be careful of your heads."
Although the guards couldn't bear it, they still fought unequivocally relative to their own lives.
Xia Mengning looked up to the sky and shouted, "God, it's unfair. I have been humiliated and blind in this life. I mistakenly regard the jackal as a good person and expelled my heart. If there is an afterlife, even if I fight for my life, I will kill my enemies with one hand."
The sad voice hovered for a long time. Fu's mother's eyelids jumped. She quickly reached out and stroked her chest and poohed fiercely! They are all despicable bodies that are about to die. Do you still want to turn over?
The board fell ruthlessly, and Zhulian hurriedly ran up and lay on Xia Mengning. "Please don't hit me. If you want to hit me, please hit me. Our young lady is weak..."
Xia Mengning couldn't help but shed two lines of tears. In the end of this life, it turned out to be this girl who was wronged to protect herself.
