Chapter 722: King Zhou’s Thoughts

"Being selected into Prince Zhou's Mansion? What do you think? How can two women be selected into Prince Zhou's Mansion? And they are both concubines!" the Queen's face turned cold as she said.

Shao Yanru is the noble eldest daughter. Any family like this eldest daughter will do their best to cultivate her.

Shao Wanru's identity is not weak either. Not only is she the legitimate daughter of the former Crown Prince Xingguo, but she is also the daughter of Princess Qinghua. For this empty identity, she is even higher than Shao Yanru.

Shao Yanru was caught because of what happened before. Even if he entered the palace as a concubine, Duke Xingguo would endure it. But Shao Wanru couldn't. If Shao Wanru was a concubine, Duke Xingguo would not be able to stand up.

Originally, there were many rumors about Duke Xingguo's government not treating the former prince well. There were even rumors that the former prince was harmed by the current second wife of Duke Xingguo, so the title fell to the second wife. Now they are even more unwilling to let the former prince Xingguo stay. The eldest son below has a promising future.

The daughter who had just left the eldest family often had accidents, and even almost lost her life.

Moreover, this matter has now come to the attention of the Queen Mother. At this time, even if Duke Xingguo is willing to send his niece out as a concubine, he cannot really do so.

If he really did this, would he have the nerve to stand up straight and speak in the future? Can he still express his innocence in front of others? Besides, the eldest princess Ruian will also cling to him.

"It doesn't matter if both mothers and queens are side concubines! In fact, the father did not clearly state that two daughters of the same family cannot be side concubines at the same time, but they cannot all be the prince's main concubines. If they are side concubines, and the circumstances are special, It's a beautiful thing to say!" Chu Liuzhou said confidently.

He did ask the emperor about this in a roundabout way, but the emperor didn't say anything, which gave him a new idea.

Of course Shao Yanru is good, but Shao Wanru seems to be even better. It would be a pity to give up such a beautiful woman. Even if she is just an empty show, she is also a noble and stunning empty show.

"You actually asked your father about this matter?" The queen was furious.

"Empress, I just happened to hear my father talk about the draft and mentioned it. Don't worry, empress, my father won't think that I really meant it. I was not the one who mentioned the draft at that time!" Chu Liuzhou saw that the queen was angry. , hurriedly explained.

After hearing his explanation, the anger on the Queen's face slowly subsided, and she warned: "Don't make such a move in vain. Since you mentioned it to your father, no matter if it was you who brought it up, you Father must have cared about it, if nothing happens to you, that’s all, but if something happens, it’s related to both sisters, and I won’t let you off lightly!”

"Mother, have your father noticed what I mean?" Chu Liuzhou said dissatisfied, "She is just a side concubine. The position of the main concubine depends entirely on the mother's orders. So what if there is one more side concubine!"

Seeing that her son was still so stubborn, the empress stretched out her finger angrily and hit Chu Liuzhou's forehead hard: "You are an immature person. You just want to see how good-looking the parents are. I'll wait until you can secure your position in the world." , What kind of beauty you want is unavailable, why do you need to weigh such an empty frame!"

This of course meant that she was against it.

Of course she objected to Shao Wanru entering the Zhou Palace. It would be fine if Shao Yanru came in. She originally thought that she would definitely be given the position of the principal concubine. But now Chu Liuzhou meant that only one side concubine would be given, and then the position of the principal concubine could be well operated. After a while, the queen's mood improved a little after thinking about it.

"Go and say hello to the Queen Mother!" he waved.

Now that you have entered the palace, you should go and say hello to the Queen Mother.

"Mother, I'm going now, it's my business..." Chu Liuzhou said unsatisfied, and wanted to beg the Queen for a sincere response.

"Didn't you just say that you would wait until the selected woman enters the palace? It's useless to say this now. Remember, you can't show off your skills in front of your father!"

The Queen Empress waved her hand and said with a bit of hatred.

Although he didn't get a word of approval from the Queen Mother, at least the Queen Mother no longer objected at first. Chu Liuzhou was quite satisfied. He stood up, bowed to the Queen Mother, retreated, and went to greet the Queen Mother in her palace.

He had just left here when the maid sent out to investigate the matter came back.

"Empress, I have gone to check. It was the Yong-Kangbo Mansion who took the lead in inviting Nanny Zheng to the Qin Mansion. They were the ones who invited Nanny Zheng to be the nanny. They didn't tell anyone at the time. For education, it was only said that they would be sent to the Qin Mansion. The two nuns who were sent later stayed in the Qin Mansion. However, when Miss Shao Wu recognized her ancestors and returned to the clan, the nun who educated the eldest daughter of the Qin Mansion resigned and left. !”

The palace maid handed over the case file that she had just looked through.

The empress took it and looked through it. Since she was a nanny, she had something to do with the palace. Especially Aunt Zheng, who had a high rank in the palace in the past and had records in the palace.

Turning to the page of Aunt Zheng, I saw what the palace maid said just now. Is this really an accident? The Queen's brows furrowed again.

After a long while, he said to Aunt Xi, who had been kneeling below: "You continue to go to Xingguo Duke's Mansion and serve as a nun for the young ladies in their mansion. As for Miss Shao Wu, since she is a student, of course she is It’s best to learn together. Her previous nun has been out of the palace for several years, and you don’t understand some of the conditions in the palace. You can explain the taboos in the palace while educating her, so she should be able to listen to the class together."

"What does the Queen mean after that?" Aunt Xi knelt so hard that her knees hurt, but she didn't dare to move. She just tried to figure out the meaning of the Queen's words.

These words were much softer than when I went to Duke Xingguo's mansion before.

The last time I went there was a strong suppression, but this time there was a hint of coaxing. Aunt Xi was not sure about her master's intentions for a while, so she asked one more question cautiously.

"Go!" The Queen didn't mean to explain to her. She waved her hand, leaned back, and drove her out directly.

"Yes, your Majesty!" Nanny Xi walked out holding her trembling knees. When she got outside the palace, she carefully tasted what the Empress had just said to her, as well as what the Empress and His Highness the King of Zhou had said. She suddenly felt that she understood. .

After the soreness in his knees subsided, he hurriedly returned to the Duke Xingguo's Mansion with the two serving maids.

"Let me learn the rules from my sisters, because not only do I need to learn etiquette, but I also need to talk about some new taboos in the palace?"

Shao Wanru pondered for a moment and then understood what Aunt Xi meant, which was to let herself learn together. Regardless of whether she had educated her or not, Aunt Zheng didn't know about the recent events in the palace. Aunt Xi was Use this as a starting point and allow yourself to follow the lectures and learn etiquette.

In fact, this is not impossible!

"Go tell the people sent by Grandma Xi that I will definitely go tomorrow!" Shao Wanru said without raising his head, focusing entirely on the sachet in his hand.

She embroidered very delicately. In her previous life, after she married Wen Xichi, she had time to embroider slowly. Although Wen Xichi did not know how to embroider, he was good at painting and had his own special skills for this kind of embroidery. His unique insights can give Shao Wanru some advice.

Because of this, her embroidery is different from other women's, and the layout is more beautiful and picturesque.

No matter how good other women's embroidery is, it was the woman who directed it, but her embroidery was directed by the man, and some of the arrangements are more elegant.

Just like the sachet in her hand, even though it is also an embroidered bunch of flowers, it looks more elegant and natural, blending the painting into the embroidery.

"Miss, do you really want to go? This Auntie Xi can tell at a glance that she is a bad person. This time she has the Queen's wishes again. She may not be sure how to deal with the miss!" Yu Jie said worriedly.

She saw Aunt Xi embarrassing her in Mrs. Tai's yard before, and she was so angry that she almost couldn't bear it anymore.

"It's okay, her attitude is much better now!" Shao Wanru smiled slightly. Aunt Xi's words now are much softer than her previous words. It seems that the Queen's intention does not make her tougher anymore. In this case, Just look at it.

Otherwise, when something happens, he will definitely be suspicious of himself, a person who doesn't have a good relationship with Grandma Xi at first sight.

"Is there anything going on at the ancestral hall?"

"Qing'er just told the slave that Aunt Sheng has been very busy these past two days. She even sent someone out before, as if she was delivering something to the palace!" Yu Jie replied.

Qing'er always went into the house directly if it was inconvenient, so she entrusted Yu Jie to report the matter.

"Going to the palace?" Shao Wanru said thoughtfully.

"Are you reporting a message to the Queen?" Qu Le was surprised and asked anxiously, fearing that Mrs. Xingguo and the Queen would collude to harm her young lady.

Shao Wanru shook his head: "Not the Queen!"

In the past, the Queen Empress was not very affectionate towards Duke Xingguo. A relationship as far away as possible was not enough for the Queen to treat them as relatives. Mrs. Xingguo and the Queen were not familiar with each other.

If we say they are familiar, she is not as good as Concubine Shu, who is also a distant relative. She has a much closer relationship with Duke Xingguo's wife, and she occasionally rewards her with a daughter of Duke Xingguo's mansion.

The two of them had plotted against themselves together before.

What happened last time in the palace, things outside the palace were arranged by Duke Xingguo, but things in the palace were arranged by Concubine Shu. Shao Wanru could see clearly when it happened.

"We should go find Concubine Shu!" He smiled slightly, with a cold smile on his lips. He was not afraid that Mrs. Xingguo would go to Concubine Shu, but he was afraid that she would hesitate and not go there!

Now, that piece of material was Mrs. Xingguo's favorite, and it also gave her a backbone. She thought that Shao Yanru was wholeheartedly helping her and wanted to save her from the ancestral hall. Mrs. Xingguo was also planning to save herself!

She and Shao Yanruli cooperated with each other, and Concubine Shu pushed the hand. Her matter was caused by the palace. Although Concubine Shu's weight is a little weaker, if the Queen is involved again, there is no chance!

"Miss, do you still want to keep an eye on her?"

"Keep staring. If there is any abnormality, ask Qing'er to report to me quickly!" Shao Wanru's watery eyes turned, and he was leisurely. The person who was locked up was the most anxious. Even if this person was the one who used to hold it, It seems that Mrs. Xingguo is not easily fooled...
