Lian Suisui came to visit. The eldest princess was in a good mood and ate a little more for lunch. After dinner, Lian Suisui walked with her for half a quarter of an hour.
Seeing that the eldest princess was sleepy, Lian Suisui said goodbye.
When Qinghe sent her out, he whispered: "Miss Third, my princess is worried about the consort."
When talking about this, she looked around carefully, "The eldest princess is not allowed to mention the prince-in-law, and the servants don't dare to talk about it. If the news reaches the ears of the princess, we servants will be embarrassed."
"The third young lady is sincerely good to the eldest princess. Please don't tell anyone what I say next."
Everyone in a wealthy family has privacy. Lian Suisui nodded solemnly and waited for Qinghe to continue.
"Our consort is Qi Yan, the head of the Qi family. Ever since our princess married, the head of the Qi family has shown great respect for the princess, but secretly has been bringing all kinds of women to the house, including concubines who gave birth to children. There are thirteen.”
"Our princess couldn't have children, and she had no position to blame him, so she took her concubine's children with her and raised them well. But the master of the Qi family became more and more excessive and began to bring promiscuous women into the house. Our princess couldn't bear it and asked the emperor. Propose reconciliation."
"But at that time, the emperor had just ascended the throne and still needed the support of the Qi family. The Qi family had not yet established a foothold in the capital through the reputation of the eldest princess, so they refused to reconcile."
"It was at that time that the eldest princess's heart disease worsened, and she was very dangerous several times. Finally, the emperor had no other choice, so he gave the eldest princess a house outside the city. Although the eldest princess and the head of the Qi family had not reconciled, they already had many friends. We haven’t seen each other in years.”
"Originally, everyone was in peace, but some time ago, the head of the Qi family heard that the emperor wanted the eldest princess to help select concubines for the princes, so he had a weird idea and wanted to use the eldest princess's way to seduce people into the back house of the prince's mansion. The eldest princess Without consent, he gave the daughter who the eldest princess had carefully raised to be a concubine to a high-ranking official, which made the eldest princess so angry that she has not recovered yet."
Qinghe said worriedly, "There is no place to express the grievances of the eldest princess. I can only keep it in my heart. It is rare for the third young lady to win the favor of the eldest princess. If there is a chance, please help us persuade the eldest princess to be more open-minded."
Lian Suisui didn't expect that there was such a hidden secret. No one else could do anything about this kind of thing and could only figure it out on his own. However, the authorities were obsessed with it. Even if he was as noble as an eldest princess, it would be difficult for him to have real freedom.
A sense of powerlessness suddenly arose in her heart. A woman was trapped in the back house and could only waste her whole life guarding her man. Thinking of such a life made her feel suffocated.
"I understand. If I have the chance, I will advise the eldest princess."
Lian Suisui is a doctor. She can only treat physical diseases and cannot control other people's minds.
Qinghe Fushen said: "Thank you very much, Miss Third."
After getting on the carriage, Lian Suisui sighed outside the carriage curtain, sympathizing with the eldest princess's plight and feeling confused about her future.
She couldn't really drug King Cheng and poison him to death and become a widow, right?
Otherwise, you can imagine what kind of life she would live if she married into Prince Cheng's palace, with Weng Ling'er as a house-fighting king, and Prince Cheng as a husband whose power overriding etiquette and law, and who hated her very much.
It is no exaggeration to describe it as "water deep and fire hot".
Gan!
If you really make her anxious, the worst case scenario is to put her aside!
In the hot weather, dogs found a cool place to lie down and stick out their tongues. Lian Suisui's outdoor exercise was changed to indoors, and her three meals a day were adjusted again. Fresh fruits and vegetables were in season at this time, so she increased her exercise. The intensity and results are very obvious, almost every day.
"Miss."
Lian Suisui felt too hot and tied her loose hair back with a pen. When Xiao Tao came in, she was reading a medical book. Her other hand was not idle, she picked up two silver needles and threw them on the bed next to her. On the doll by the window.
Her state was so casual that Xiao Tao felt that she could do it too.
"Um?"
Lian Suisui looked up, and Xiao Tao first saw her exposed smooth forehead and well-defined jawline. Her face had been made several times smaller, highlighting the beauty of her facial features.
Xiao Tao was stunned to see that her young lady was so beautiful. Thinking of her mission, she stammered: "Miss, the medicinal materials you requested are back. I will help you put them away."
Lian Suisui hummed again. After following her for so long, Xiao Tao also learned to recognize the medicinal materials. Now he can at least help her sort them into categories.
"Miss, someone from the etiquette department in the front yard is here. When the servant passed by, he listened and seemed to be here to discuss your marriage to Wang Cheng."
Even Suisui paused while reading.
"So fast?"
It's only been a month since King Cheng and Weng Ling'er got married. Are you so anxious to get her married?
She hasn't gone out much this month. The weather is too hot and she can only cool down in the morning and evening. She has to exercise in the morning and evening and has no time to go out.
Besides, Chu Zhiyi's poison could attack at any time, so even with the pills she gave him, he still had to run to the Ninth Prince's Mansion from time to time.
She was doing well during this period. Mrs. Qin was very pleased and took the initiative to take her out to a banquet, but the date was undecided.
Even Sui Sui is not in a hurry, the days just go by like this.
"Shall we go take a look?"
Suisui couldn't sit still for even a quarter of an hour, so he pulled Xiao Tao and ran towards the second door.
As expected, many strangers came to the outer courtyard, dressed like servants.
Looking into the living room, he vaguely saw several officials dressed similarly to his father.
The marriages of princes and princes are all planned by the Ministry of Etiquette, which even has a special department responsible for these matters.
It seems that they are really here to discuss marriage...
Lian Suisui just looked inside and bumped into someone with his head unprepared.
He looked up and saw Chu Jing'an's energetic face.
He grinned and was about to say hello to her.
Lian Suisui was afraid of disturbing the people inside, so he grabbed his arm and pulled her to a hidden corner.
"Shh..." She pointed to the front yard, "Why are you here?"
Chu Jing'an has not yet been crowned king, and he is also the most arrogant among all the princes.
"Is King Cheng here too?"
She looked like she was facing an enemy, and her round cheeks were quite cute.
Chu Jing'an grinned.
"Third brother had something to do today and didn't come over, so he asked me to accompany the officials from the Ministry of Etiquette to go through the marriage proposal process, so as not to make Master Lian feel embarrassed."
Although she is a concubine, she still has to go through the marriage process, but the etiquette is slightly lower.
"However, I have never been married. I almost fell asleep after hearing them talk about the process, so I just wanted to go out for a walk, but I didn't expect to meet my third sister-in-law..."
"Don't!" Lian Suisui hurriedly stopped him, "Don't call me third sister-in-law, it will ruin your life!"
Even Suisui didn't want to have anything to do with King Cheng, but officials from the Ministry of Rites to discuss the marriage came to the house. When will the Nine Emperors Uncle take action?
Chu Jing'an found Lian Suisui talking interesting.
"Is Miss Lian San here to see Brother San?"
Why can't these three sentences be separated from that dog man Cheng Wang.
Lian Suisui said angrily, "No, I'm here to see you."
