Chapter 13 Restore the identity of the concubine
When she approached, the little girl saluted Shen Yujuan and said, "Mother, dinner is about to be delivered. Please come into the house and have a meal."
"Well, I know." Shen Yuyan nodded and said, but her footsteps did not move.
"If you delay the Empress's meal, Zhi Ruo is panicked. Please ask the Empress to eat first." Xie Zhiruo looked at Shen Yujuan and said.
Seeing Xie Zhiruo say this, Shen Yujuan nodded to Xie Zhiruo and said, "Then my sister went in first. Be careful. Remember to ask them to add charcoal to you when the brazier is cold. I will ask someone to bring you dinner later."
"Thank you very much." Xie Zhiruo felt that she didn't know what to say except thank you.
"My sister is too out of control. My sister just did what she could." With that, Shen Yuyan walked to the house.
After returning to the house, Shen Yuhuan waved her hand to let all the maids go down, leaving Fei Yun alone to serve.
"Well done." After waiting for everyone to go out, Shen Yuhuan looked at Fei Yun and said with approval.
"Thank you for your appreciation, but you are too kind. As soon as you come back, you will have someone take a brazier to bake for that woman, which is cheaper for her." Fei Yun said with a unwilling face.
"You fool, I'm back. If you really want to leave her alone and spread it out, what will the people below think of me? What will His Royal Highness think of me? What will the masters of each palace think of me? Don't think that your courtyard is safe. The most secret place is the inner courtyard of the palace. Shen Yuyan said as she cleaned her hands.
"But the maid still thinks it's cheaper for that woman." As Fei Yun said, he handed the silk towel to Shen Yuhuan.
Shen Yuyan took the silk towel, wiped the water on her hands, and said, "Of course I won't take advantage of her so much. Her clothes are wet. If she changes her clothes and heats it, it's okay. In this way, she will make wet clothes to bake. The moisture will invade her body, and the root of the disease will remain like this. Can she be good?"
"The Empress is far-sighted." As Feiyun said, he took the silk scarf in Shen Yuhuan's hand and put it down. He sat down at the table and stood beside her to make meals for her.
After all, it is a woman who comes out of everyone, and the rule of not talking has long become an instinct.
After the meal, Shen Yuyan said, "I just promised that woman to send her dinner. You can arrange it later."
"Yes." Fei Yun naturally understood what Shen Yuhuan meant by arranging it, and then nodded and answered. Then, he greeted the little maids to wash their mouth and tea and clean up the table.
There was no activity at night. Shen Yujuan read the book for a while and then bathed and slept under the service of the maid of honor. Until Shen Yujuan fell asleep, Xie Zhiruo did not see her 'devening'. She did not doubt Shen Yuyan, but lamented that she had really been bullied by the servants again. It must have been the prince's concubine who ordered, but the servant was yang Fengyin.
After the nightfall, the night wind gradually cooled down. Even if his clothes had been dried and he was wearing a quilt, he was hungry in his stomach. The night dew was deep, and Xie Zhiruo was still shivering with cold. And the knees were also numb because of kneeling for a long time.
Xie Zhiruo, who was cold and hungry, gradually felt dizzy. After a short time, she fell to the ground. It was not until early in the morning that the sweeping palace man found out that she fainted and reported it to the steward.
After the crown princess got up and cleaned up, the stewer told the crown princess Shen Yuyan about Xie Zhiruo's fainting.
Shen Yuyan thought for a long time before she had Xie Zhiruo carried back to her own yard.
The two little eunuchs reluctantly walked to Xie Zhiruo's yard and walked halfway to meet Prince Mu Yunting, who had not participated in the early morning for the first time, and walked towards the small courtyard of the princess.
The two little eunuchs muttered in their hearts when they saw Mu Yunting from afar. They knew that the person they were holding was the most annoying person the prince. They didn't go to salute and be stabbed out. The consequences were not what two ungraded eunuchs could not bear. They could only secretly muttered about bad luck while standing by the roadside and waiting for Mu. Yun Ting is coming.
"Participate in His Royal Highness the Prince." When Mu Yunting came to him, the two little eunuchs quickly knelt down and saluted on the ground with Xie Zhiruo.
Originally, Mu Yunting, two such little eunuchs, never paid attention to them. He was a prince and the crown prince of a country. There was no need to be pleasant to such a little eunuch. However, the woman framed by the two little eunuchs is so annoying that people can't ignore it even if they want to.
"This woman knelt down for a day and a night?" Mu Yunting frowned and asked.
"Your Highness, I have been kneeling for a day and a night." The little eunuch replied cautiously.
Mu Yunting was stunned for a moment and said, "I know, go down."
"Yes." The two little eunuchs kowtowed and answered in unison. After saying that, he took Xie Zhiruo back a few steps and turned around and walked away to Xie Zhiruo's yard.
Mu Yunting stood still and looked at Zhou Zhiruo, who was being held far away. For the first time, he didn't feel angry. It seems a little too much to bully a woman who has lost her support in this way. It's good that she played tricks to frame him, but looking at the whole country, there are several women who don't want to climb into their own beds, and she just put it into action.
There are still residual tea residues on the woman's hair, and there are also marks left by dry water stains on her clothes. The woman has always been generous and kind, and she will definitely not do such a thing. It must have been done by the palace people below.
As an official lady, being bullied like this, Xie Zhiruo can still live like this, not to mention anything else, but this tenacity made Mu Yunting look faintly, and those palace people were also too bold.
Thinking of this, Mu Yunting became inexplicably irritable. Shouldn't he hate the woman? And the woman's situation in Zhaoyang Palace was also caused by him, the prince. How could he sympathize with her for no reason? Mu Yunting should be a hard-hearted person and will not sympathize with anyone.
Thinking about it all the way, Mu Yunting and his party walked to Shen Yuyan's yard.
Hearing that the prince was coming, Shen Yuyu was a little surprised, because the prince had almost never been absent in the morning. It's not to see that woman die, is it? Shen Yuyan thought of it secretly in her heart.
"Participate in His Royal Highness the Prince." No matter how surprised you are, Shen Yuyan has never fallen behind.
"Well, it's very polite. Get up." Mu Yunting said to Shen Yujuan with a smile.
"Thank you, Your Highness." Shen Yuyan opened her mouth obediently and stood beside Mu Yunting and asked, "Your Highness, have you ever had breakfast?"
"Well, I have something to discuss with you." As Mu Yunting spoke, he walked to the main seat and sat down.
Originally, Mu Yunting had nothing to say to Shen Yuyan, just as Shen Yuyan guessed, he came to see 'that woman died', but when he walked on the road, he met Xie Zhiruo, who was still in a coma, but he moved his heart of compassion, so when he saw Shen Yujuan, he said something wrong. It's time to discuss.
"Your Highness, please order." Shen Yuyan replied respectfully, but she was beating hard in her heart. She always felt that something bad would come out of Mu Yunting's mouth.
"After all, Xie Zhiruo is nominally the concubine of this palace. These days, she has also been punished as she deserves. The crown prince of this palace is really disgruous with a little girl. It's better to forget it like this. What do you think? Mu Yunting said in a thoughtful tone.
Shen Yujuan's heart suddenly became stiff. Sure enough, it was like this. No matter how the Prince made a decision outside, he was not a person who could really be cruel inside. No matter how you raise the case with yourself, no matter how you are not greedy for women, it is actually good for the other two concubines. In ten years, there will always be a day or two in the concubine's room. I'm afraid that in the near future, there will be another Xie Zhiruo to compete with him.
However, no matter how unwilling and unwilling she was, Shen Yuyan could only say against her will, "Originally, I wanted to find an opportunity to speak to Your Highness. Your Highness has spoken to herself. Of course, I will not hesitate at all."
"I know that the wife is the kindest. How lucky I am to be accompanied by her. Since the woman is the concubine of my palace, she naturally has to be served by someone, and there is no need to send someone else. Huan'er will bring back the dowry maid of honor of the woman who was sent to the raccoon bureau that day. Mu Yunting said.
"Since it's like this, my concubine will do it in a moment. Is the sweeping maid arranged according to the other two sisters or something? Shen Yuyan bowed and asked.
"No need. I'm not a good person. It's generous to let them die. How can I send another maidservant to serve?" Mu Yunting shook his head and rejected Shen Yuwen's proposal about the rough sweeping palace people. He didn't really think that the woman was a concubine, but a little sympathetic.
"Yes, I understand." Shen Yuhuaan responded obediently, but there was already a storm in her heart. Even if Mu Yunting has no intention of that woman now, who knows what will happen in the future? After all, I still looked down on that woman, and I didn't know what I had done.
"In this way, it's hard for the baby. I still have a lot of official business to deal with, so I won't eat with the baby." As Mu Yunting said, he got up and wanted to leave.
It's not how busy Mu Yunting is. Although there are many government affairs, he doesn't need him, the prince, to do everything. It's just that the woman's weakness and confusion in a coma always flashes in his mind, which really makes him a little irritable.
"It's not hard. It's all about my concubine." No matter how unwilling she is, on the surface, Shen Yuhuai still wants to maintain her virtuous virtue.
"Well, let's use breakfast before dealing with these things. I'm going to deal with official business first." With that, Mu Yunting stood up.
"Send it to Your Highness." Shen Yuyan got up and said.
"No need. You'd better have breakfast first. It's not good for the crown princess who is hungry." With that, Mu Yunting turned around and walked out.
