Chapter 70 Jade Noble Concubine's Niece
The late autumn has gradually faded away, and the winter is coming quietly. The leaves in the yard have already withered, leaving only the lonely branches standing in the cold wind.
"What did you say? The emperor ordered to give the niece of the Jade Noble Concubine to Your Highness as a concubine? Shen Yuyan said with some surprise, how could this matter come so quickly?
"Yes, Madam, the Duke An beside the emperor just came to read the imperial edict, and His Royal Highness also received the imperial edict."
"Didn't you come back from the north of the town yesterday? Why did you take a concubine for him? Did Your Highness say anything?" She knew that Mu Yunting didn't like others to take concubines for him in the past. The reason why he wanted Lin Xiaoer and Yu Linger was that he was willing to take them, but why did the emperor take him a concubine when they just came back from Zhenbei? He had no problem with him at all?
"Your Majesty, there is another one more in the Zhaoyang Palace. Behind her is the Jade Noble Concubine, who is the emperor's favorite concubine!" Mu Yunting's attitude towards Shen Yujuan has been much colder since she recovered from her illness. Even she, a maid, can see it, not to mention Shen Yuuan herself! Now there is one more person to compete for favor. Isn't it more dangerous?
"Where is Your Highness now?"
"Your Highness went to the study after receiving the order. Do you want to go there?
"What to do? Can't your Highness accept a concubine? How could I do such a stupid thing?" She will never do that kind of thing to stop her husband from taking a concubine. This will only make her husband more disgusted with her. What's more, Mu Yunting is still the prince of a country. There are countless women around him.
"Yes."
"It's just a concubine. When you enter Zhaoyang Palace, I have my own way to deal with her." Speaking of this, Shen Yuyan showed a sneer at the corners of her mouth.
Jia Baozhu's entry into the palace is scheduled to be ten days later. Because Jia Baozhu is the niece of the favored Yu Guifei, she was much more grand than Lin Xiaoer at that time, and the Zhaoyang Palace began to be arranged.
"Why is it so lively outside the past of the moon?" After soaking in cold water all night, Xie Zhiruo finally survived. I don't know if it's because the medicine is too strong. Xie Zhiruo, who soaked in cold water all night, didn't get sick. Is her body getting better and better?
"I don't know. I'm going to inquire about it now." With that, he ran to the door of the courtyard.
Xie Zhiruo is still fiddling with the new medicine that Li Dongxu sent to her. This time, the herbs of the plague have helped her a lot, and she has to treat them well.
Soon Yuexi came back, but unlike the positive appearance of going to inquire, his eyes were a little dodged when he came back.
"What's the matter? Did you hear something?" Xie Zhiru looked at Yuexi and asked with a little funny.
"Well, no, it's nothing." Yuexi hesitated and didn't dare to tell the truth.
"There must be something wrong with your appearance. Come on, you look very appetizing!" Xie Zhiruo went to Yuexi and gently pinched Yuexi's nose with her dirty and earthy hands, signaling her to tell the truth.
"It's nothing, miss. What kind of seed did Dr. Li bring you this time? Why does it seem to be a little different from the previous one? Yue Xi pretended to be very interested in Yao Miao and ran to Xie Zhiruo and said in front of Yao Miao just now.
Seeing Yuexi like this, Xie Zhiruo knew that there must be something wrong. Yuexi didn't dare to say anything because she was afraid that she would have negative emotions after telling her. Could it be something happened to Mu Yunting?
"Yuexi, tell me if something happened to the prince?"
"Ah? Prince? No, what can happen if the prince is good?
"Then why do you hesitate to say it?"
"Oh, miss, yes, it's His Royal Highness who is going to take a concubine..." But Yuexi had to tell the truth.
"A concubine... Is Mu Yunting going to take a concubine again..." Xie Zhiruo lost his mind for a moment and took a concubine. Does that mean that there is another woman beside him who can stand around him?
"Miss, Your Highness and you only have four concubines, which are very rare compared with other princes and nobles..." In Yuexi, it seems that it is normal for Mu Yunting to take a concubine, but she doesn't want to see Xie Zhiruo sad.
"Oh... Yes, it's a normal thing..." The disappointing tears began to swirle in her eyes. She really didn't want to cry, but she really felt so sad. Although she had already told herself that she would stay no matter how difficult it was to be around him, her heart still felt so painful that she couldn't breathe.
At this time, in the Jade Noble Concubine's palace, the Jade Noble Concubine was crooked on the soft couch. In the room, there was only her and a woman in red silk with purple thread hooked on the bottom and embroidered with flowers on her skirt. If you look closely, you can also find that the woman is somewhat similar to the Jade Noble Concubine, and she has a crystal beauty on her body.
"Why doesn't my aunt let Baozhu come? These days, Baozhu is thinking about you..." Even her voice is a little similar to that of the Jade Concubine, and she listens sticky and gentle.
"You bridesmaid, why are you running to my palace when you have nothing to do? I'm not afraid that people will laugh at you."
"Isn't this what I want to see my aunt? After getting married, I won't see my aunt for many days." With that, Jia Baozhu leaned into the arms of the Jade Noble Concubine coquettishly.
"You naughty child, you are about to get married and still be so childish. How will you serve the prince well in the future?" Although Yu Guifei said that, she did not push Jia Baozhu away, which showed that she also loved her.
"Auntie, don't worry, Baozhu will definitely serve the prince well..." Jia Baozhu deliberately bit the word 'good' when she said so.
While Jia Baozhu and Yu Guifei were chatting like this, Yu Guifei's hand quickly grabbed Jia Baozhu's hand and seemed to hold it inadvertently. Soon something unknown came to Jia Baozhu.
"Well, it's not too late. You'd better go back quickly." Yu Guifei's face showed obvious fatigue, signaling Jia Baozhu to leave.
Of course, Jia Baozhu is not stupid. After leaving with the Jade Noble Concubine, she left the palace and went back to prepare to marry Zhaoyang Palace a few days later.
Zhaoyang Palace has been prepared for ten days, which is also a lot of festive decoration. On the day of marriage, Zhaoyang Palace was busy early. This kind of concubine is all done by Shen Yuyan for Mu Yunting.
Shen Yuyan got up early. If she was like Lin Xiaoer and Yu Linger, Shen Yuyan didn't need to get up and prepare anything in person. But who let the door enter this time is the niece of the favored Jade Noble Concubine. Although she is just a concubine, she is also much more careful than before.
"It's just a favorite niece! What's great? Do you still want your mother to get up early in the morning and get busy for her to enter the door? Humph!" Fei Yun felt very uncomfortable. Shen Yuhuan was tired, and she was going to suffer together.
"Oc's it, when did you still break your mouth like this? If you were heard, it would be okay?" Shen Yuhuan looked at Yuexi with some reproach. If such words were heard, what would others think of her as such a princess? If she is said to be jealous, wouldn't it have ruined her good reputation?
"I'm just a maidservant who is not in peace with you! You have a high reputation among the people now, which..."
"Well, get ready quickly. You will be there soon." Shen Yuhua didn't give Fei Yun any more chance to talk. Originally, she didn't need to come to her concubine Mu Yunting in person, as long as she brought her in through the side door.
But because Jia Baozhu is the marriage given by the emperor and the jade noble concubine in the palace supports it, there are still a lot of things to do. However, no matter how thick Jia Baozhu's foundation is, there is no worship ceremony for this concubine, just a grand banquet.
And according to the etiquette, Mu Yunting will not come out to pick up people. He will only appear at the dinner party, and then the bridal chamber.
Thinking of Shen Yuhua's dangerous squinting in the bridal chamber, this is another troublesome thing!
Soon, there was a shocking sound of firecrackers in front of the gate of Zhaoyang Palace. Unlike other concubines, Jia Baozhu's sedan chair actually came in from the main gate of Zhaoyang Palace this time, which made many women who had not left the cabinet jealous when they saw it!
There is no need to worship. He just walked through the scene and sent the bride to the bridal chamber. Mu Yunting did not appear in the whole process. Jia Baozhu was placed in the dogwood pavilion in the northwest, which was specially picked up by Shen Yujuan a few days ago.
There are many people who came to celebrate this time. Many people are trying to please Mu Yunting and the noble concubine. It's like Mu Yunting married a side concubine, but this has given Yu Guifei a lot of face. She wanted to come in person, but she thought that some things should not be done too obvious, so she didn't go. .
"Your Highness, it's time to start the dinner. Look, are you going to go there..." At this time, no one would have thought that Mu Yunting was in the gloomy and dark prison.
Xiao Huazi was a little frightened to estimate the time. Thinking that he really couldn't stay any longer, he came forward and whispered.
Mu Yunting stood in the prison with a green face. There is no doubt that he just went to see Mu Yunlei who was captured in the prison a few days ago. Du told him that the person who assassinated him in Zhenbei last time was also sent by Mu Yunlei. After knowing this incident, he had been secretly angry.
No matter how Mu Yunlei opposes him on weekdays, it's good, but he has never done such a thing. So when he knew that the person was Mu Yunlei, he was not angry at first, but had a trace of doubt.
