She just felt the attachment to her, her only niece, in her arms, but Cai didn't tell her. Although I don’t know what this niece went through after her parents died. But when Situ Huanshuang was talking, a look of pain flashed across his face. But let her know that this child's life of living under the shelter of others may not be as easy as she said.
What other thoughts does she have at this time? She just feels distressed. How much suffering has this child who lost his parents since childhood gone through? No matter how good life is when living under someone else's roof, is it really that easy? The Prince of Guilin sent her to the palace, probably just for exchange with the imperial court, or as a hostage in the hands of the imperial court.
Coming from a wealthy family and marrying into a family that had been officials for generations, Ms. Cai was not the kind of housewife who revolved around her husband and children. On the contrary, Cai is a very wise woman. However, in this era where men are respected, women are not allowed to have too much wisdom. Just because she had kept silent in the past didn't mean that she really didn't understand anything. As an adopted daughter, she married into the royal family instead of her biological daughter.
Cai could still see the meaning behind it. It's just that many things can only be seen through but not explained. Situ Huanshuang didn't say anything, and Cai didn't want to uncover the bloody scars that might exist in her heart at this time. Gently stroking the hair of the woman in her arms, looking at the beautiful face of her niece, and thinking of her own fate, Cai sighed softly.
For the sake of Cai's body and not wanting to increase Cai's pain, Situ Huanshuang chose the final concealment. As for Situ Huanshuang's concealment, Cai, who could see something was wrong from the expression on Situ Huanshuang's face, did not tell the truth. Because she knew that her niece, whether she inherited the character of her own sister or her brother-in-law, would probably be a stubborn person.
If she doesn't want to say it, I'm afraid she won't say it no matter how much I ask. Both of them had their own thoughts, but for the sake of each other, they both chose to hide it to a certain extent. And this night, the two of them were like ordinary relatives reunited after a long separation, and they talked for most of the night. Situ Huanshuang never left Cai's arms. Even when she fell asleep, she snuggled into Cai's arms and slept.
As for what the two of them said that night, they have never mentioned it to anyone else, including their common husband Huang Qiong. However, after that night, Situ Huanshuang's mood became much better, and Mrs. Cai never mentioned her request to leave the palace and live elsewhere. This situation made Huang Qiong greatly relieved. After all, if the family affairs are not peaceful and involve too many experiences, they will also affect his energy.
While Situ Huanshuang and Cai were talking at night, Huang Qiong, who was bathing in the bathroom, was also thinking about what the two women would talk about and what the consequences would be. But Huang Qiong still has some confidence in Cai. The longer Huang Qiong stayed with this woman, the more he felt that this woman had extraordinary vision and wisdom. If it were anyone else, Huang Qiong would still be worried.
But Huang Qiong still has some confidence in this kind of thing when it comes to Cai. Situ Huanshuang couldn't turn around the twists and turns in her heart. At this time, she needed a careful person to soothe her thoughts. Cai was gentle and wise, and was Situ Huanshuang's only relative. Apart from his own accident, it can be said that he is the most suitable candidate, both emotionally and in terms of selection.
Huang Qiong even hoped that Cai could use her gentleness and consideration to completely heal the bloody wounds Situ Huanshuang had suffered. Therefore, Huang Qiong was also concerned about their night conversation, but he was not too worried. As he lay in the bathtub, he was thinking more about today's events and how to deal with them in the future. Especially the rumors and the matter of the concubine.
Huang Qiong's treatment of Concubine De today, and even a slap on Concubine De's face, was actually not just to suppress this woman, but also to set rules for the old man's concubines in the harem by stretching out his hand a little too long. The purpose is more to muddy the water so that he can fish out of the water and hide the other big fish that is waiting for the snipe and clam to fight for his own benefit. De Fei was just an unlucky guy who bumped into a gun.
Lying in this specially built bathtub, which was half the size of a room, Huang Qiong put a handful of hot water on his face and rubbed his tired face. At this time, the former deputy envoy of Shaanxi Jiedu came to the door to serve him in the bath. At this time, several naked women looked at Huang Qiong, who was lying in the bath with his eyes closed and silent, and carefully gave him a bath. He wiped himself.
When Huang Qiong calmed down slightly, he opened his eyes and looked at the lively scene in front of him, with a faint smile on his face. Lifting up the face of one of the deputy envoys, he looked at the beauty and maturity of the woman in front of him, with a hint of reluctance and even sadness. He said softly: "Why, are you still thinking about that person or that home? Don't worry, he passed by in central Guizhou pretty well."
Listening to Huang Qiong's words, this man, who is already in his forties, is still loved by her husband for so many years. In order to cling to the young man in front of me, I gave it as a gift. It also affected his daughter-in-law and daughter, a woman who had the same fate as him, and she couldn't help but shed tears. At this time, she felt more depressed and worried about the fate of her only son.
Look at this woman's somewhat sad expression, and then look at her daughter and daughter-in-law, who have equally sad expressions. Huang Qiong thought for a while and said to the five women in front of him: "He has nothing to do with you now. Remember that you are all my women now. I also know what you are thinking. In addition to resenting that person in your heart In addition, I am more resentful of the few people who are greedy and lustful."
"At the beginning, you were not robbed or forced by me. In fact, you were also a victim in this matter. He put a kind of incense in that room. That kind of incense The smell is very light, but the temper is very domineering. Based on this, even if I crush him to ashes, I still deserve it. I spared his life because of your face."
, "Now, since you have followed me, you must be separated from the people and things in the past. From now on, stay with me in peace, and give birth to children with peace of mind. As for your son, where is it?" One day, because he was drunk, he slipped and fell into Qujiang River. Because it was late at night, he was not discovered in time. By the time he was discovered, he was already swollen from the water."
I saw and heard that my only son, as well as my husband and brother, had passed away last year. The faces of the three women became extremely painful. They wanted to cry but did not dare to cry. Huang Qiong stood up, and under the service of the other two former concubines, who were not too sad and could control themselves because they were not his sons, he wiped his body and hair hastily, pulled away his clothes and put them on simply.
When he reached the door of the bathroom, he turned around and said softly to the three women who were trying their best to suppress themselves: "Today, I don't need you to sleep with me. I will allow you to go back to your bedroom and cry happily." But you must not cry again tomorrow. In the palace, people are not allowed to cry casually. Remember, after today, the original home will no longer have anything to do with you. "
After that, Huang Qiong walked out and came to another bedroom. Just looking at the two women kneeling on the ground, trembling with fear, Huang Qiong pinched the bridge of her nose a little tiredly. I doubted myself whether I was in the wrong place again. The palace he came to was none other than the palace of the two women who had been forcibly occupied on the outskirts of Chang'an. Send the eunuch with you to find Zhao Jinse and others.
Huang Qiong raised his hand to signal the two girls to stand up and sit next to him. Since that time outside Chang'an City, Huang Qiong has never asked two women to sleep with him again. Looking at the two girls today, not only their beautiful appearance has not changed at all, but as their lives have improved, their complexions are much better than before. Especially that young woman, second only to Cai in beauty among the women in Chang'an.
Her figure, which is slightly plumper than Cai's, looks even more attractive under the candlelight. However, facing the beauty and the two women, even though he was in the bathroom before, the accumulated anger became more and more intense. But Huang Qiong was not in a hurry, but was waiting for the two daughters of Zhao Jinse and the two Madam Chu to come over. These two people are still too raw and need to study hard.
He looked at the two girls who looked a little nervous when facing him. Huang Qiong also knew that the memory he brought to the two girls for the first time was probably very bad. He smiled softly and said: "Don't be so nervous. I am just an ordinary, normal man. I am not a hungry wolf. I will not eat you alive. How about it? I am still used to life in the palace." Bar."
After hearing Huang Qiong's question, the two girls couldn't help but become even more trembling. Although she didn't want to answer, in any case, the second daughter, who had been with Huang Qiong for a long time and knew some of the rules in the palace, knew that she had to answer. The older one could only bite the bullet and said in a low voice: "Your Highness, the two of us are of low status, from ordinary farmers' families."
"Staying by His Highness' side to serve His Highness is really tainting His Highness's noble status, and is not worthy of this magnificent palace. There are so many beauties around His Highness, not least of us two vulgar fans. The one His Highness had at the beginning was just a temporary thing. It's just a matter of rising up. Please have mercy on Your Highness and let us go. This palace compound is too glorious and it is really not a place for lowly women like us."
The woman's words made Huang Qiong frown. Seeing the change in Huang Qiong's expression, the two women were so frightened that they knelt down in front of Huang Qiong. Looking at the two people who were frightened but somewhat insistent on their expressions, Huang Qiong sighed softly. Maybe, I did do something wrong. Not all women in this world are greedy for glory and wealth.
Thinking of the Cai family and the Wu family in the past, Huang Qiong felt a little bitter in her heart, but she still didn't intend to let go. Stretching out his hand to lift the two women's drooping faces, and caressing them gently for a while, Huang Qiong sighed softly and said, "Don't mention this matter anymore. A person who is a widower once will always be a widower." A good person. Stay with me, I will not treat any woman around me badly."
He raised his head and saw that the four daughters of Zhao Jinse who had been summoned had already arrived beside him. Huang Qiong sat back on the edge of the bed and pushed the heads of Zhao Jinse and Zhao Jinse down. On one hand, he peeled off the two wives of the Chu family and held them in his arms. After a lot of movement with his hands. Then he chuckled and said: "I won't treat you badly if I stay with me. As for now, you should first learn how to serve me."
That night, Huang Qiong directed all the anger in his heart to the girls. Especially the two women were even more exhausted by him. Even the other place was forcibly occupied by Huang Qiong. When Huang Qiong got up on the second day, she got dressed and was served by Zhao Jinse. After getting dressed, she pointed at the two women and asked Zhao Jinse to persuade them.
