When Nangong Yue woke up, it was already dark, and she only felt a little pain in her head, so she couldn't help rubbing her eyebrows.

Nangong Yue was a little helpless. She had always been in good shape all these years, but she never thought that she would become so squeamish occasionally after a stroke.

"Sister-in-law, do you want to drink water?"

Xiao Fei's voice sounded just at this moment, but it made Nangong Yue wake up a little bit again.

Why is Xiao Fei here?

Baihui hurriedly stepped forward, helped her to sit up, and took a large pillow for her to lean against.

Sure enough, Xiao Fei was sitting on the round stool beside the bed, with a volume of books by her hand, apparently she was reading a book just now.

Nangong Yue asked in a hoarse voice, "What time is it now?"

Baihui replied, "Yin Shi is a moment."

And Xiao Fei went to pour a glass of water, handed it to Nangong Yue, and said, "Sister-in-law, drink water."

Nangong Yue frowned and took the cup, drank it all in one gulp, and then said, "Baihui, send the eldest girl back to rest."

Before Baihui could answer the order, Xiao Fei shook her head decisively and said, "No. It's what I should do to serve my sister-in-law. The ancients said:..."

Seeing that Xiao Fei was about to cite the scriptures again, Nangong Yue intercepted her words unintentionally and said, "I'm afraid I'll be ill for a few days, if you don't go to rest, won't you let me take care of things again tomorrow? Yet?"

Xiao Fei thought about it carefully and it made sense, and hesitated.

"It's better than this." Nangong Yue coaxed again and again, "It's so late, don't go back to Yuebiju, just rest in the Bisha closet, if anything happens, I'll let Baihui call you. of."

Xiao Fei thought about it carefully, and finally compromised. After Fushen bowed, he was led by Thrush to the Bisha Cabinet.

Nangong Yue let out a light breath.

Baihui asked Nangong Yue what she meant, and ordered a second-class maid outside the house to bring porridge to the small kitchen and serve her.

After taking a nap and using some porridge, Nangong Yue's spirit improved a little, and she asked what happened after she fell asleep.

Baihui naturally reported it one by one. After hearing about Xiao Fei's disposal, Nangong Yue's brows slightly raised.

Judging from this matter alone, Xiao Fei acted more prudently. Although she did not go to the Xiaohua Hall to see the overall style of the layout, she also knew that the Yellow Diyangcai was the icing on the cake. The two vases are similar in color and style, and can be substituted for each other.

But, at a young age...

It's not just a matter of changing a vase.

Although this double dragon ear bottle is only broken with a hole, it does not affect the practicality, but for Zhennan Wangfu, breaking a hole is no different from breaking the whole, and it is impossible to use it again. In such a situation, the warehouse should report the loss, instead of just staying in the warehouse so casually, which itself is not in compliance with the rules.

Speaking of rules, Nangong Yue's head hurt even more, and the palace's inner house should be rectified.

But these are still to be thought about after the birthday banquet of King Zhennan. Nangong Yue lay back, letting her whole body relax, and soon fell asleep again.

Nangong Yue really wasn't so squeamish, it was just heatstroke, and the next day she was fine, but thinking that this was a good opportunity for Xiao Fei to exercise, she simply ordered the stewards to come to Bi Xiao Fei had something to do with Xiaotang, and asked Xiao Fei to see him.

The morning passed peacefully, and Xiao Fei's decision to replace the unwell Nangong Yue to preside over the central feed also spread in the palace in this short period of time.

Leaving aside the others, Xiao Fei's concubine sisters were a little anxious.

Now that the situation in the palace is clear, everyone can see that the madam will never have a chance to turn over again. They can only rely on their sister-in-law, Nangong Yue, for their future. I can't even cry! It's no wonder that Xiao Fei has always followed his sister-in-law's lead since he visited the capital. I'm afraid he has long thought of this!

Xiao Fei is so cunning!

The concubines of King Zhennan, whether they were ordered by their aunts, or they figured it out on their own, came to Bixiaotang diligently in the afternoon, and kept saying they wanted to serve the elder sister-in-law, making Nangongyue unable to laugh or cry. I thought that I had suddenly become an old lady and was enjoying her old age.

Just when Nangong Yue was taking a break from her busy schedule to recover from her illness, three black-painted flat-topped carriages stopped at the entrance of the Fang Mansion in Luo Yue City.

"The old man is here! The old man is here!" The concierge hurriedly ordered a woman to send a message, and the woman hurried away after responding.

The concierge opened the double-flowered ink-painted door wide and greeted the three carriages attentively as they entered the palace.

The carriage stopped at the second gate, and several people got off the three carriages one after another, men and women, young and old. The leader was an old man in his sixties, wearing a brocade robe with dark pine and rock patterns. Slightly short and stout, with gray hair and dim eyes, this person is Fang Jilian, the grandfather of the third room of the Fang family.

Before the group got off the carriage, they heard a messy and hurried footsteps from the other side of the second door. Fang San, Fang Chengling, led Mrs. Fang San, Fang Shilei and others to the direction of the second door, and then bowed to the person who came. Salute: "I have seen father, mother!"

"A-Ling, no need to be more polite." Fang Jilian, the grandfather of Fang San, looked at this eldest son with satisfaction. This is his first son. He taught him to grow up since he was a child, and his affection is naturally unusual.

At this time, a middle-aged woman on Fang Jilian's right hand cleared her throat and said, "Old man, the sun is shining now, everyone should stop talking, it's not too late for us to go ahead and catch up."

The middle-aged woman had a beautiful appearance, a slender figure, fair and moist skin, wearing a silver-red robe with dark makeup, her hair neatly combed in a round bun, and a red-gold and beeswax waterdrop hairpin inserted. , It seems that her face is radiant, and it is impossible to judge her age at a glance. She can only reveal her true age from the thin lines on the corners of her eyes and mouth when she speaks.

Fang Chengling hurriedly echoed: "What my aunt said is."

This beautiful middle-aged woman is Fang Chengling's birth mother, Aunt Niu. If Fang Chengling hadn't revealed her identity in a single word, I'm afraid this unknowing person would have thought she was Mrs. Fang Santai.

The corners of Mrs. Fang's mouth froze for a moment, but soon returned to normal, smiling casually. The situation of not being a direct descendant or being a concubine in the father-in-law's house didn't start today. However, Aunt Niu was the biological mother of her husband, and when Aunt Niu gained power, it was only good for her family, not bad.

Thinking about it, Mrs. Fang San quickly glanced at the father-in-law's left hand. There was a slightly fat woman standing there. She was Fang Jilian's original wife, Mrs. Chu, and Mrs. Fang's serious mother-in-law. Mrs Chu looked to be in her fifties, her hair was already gray, and she was wearing a sapphire blue silk robe wrapped around a branch, which made her skin a little sallow.

At this moment, Chu's lips were tightly pressed into a straight line, the corners of her eyes drooped slightly, and she didn't even look at Aunt Niu, as if she didn't care about the other party's ostentation.

Beside the Chu family stood a brocade-robed man in his early thirties. It was Fang Liu's master Fang Chengyong. His ordinary Chinese character face was habitually filled with a smile, and he clung to it: "Third brother, let's go in quickly. ."

Not only Chu's mother and son, but also other Fang family members present had no objection to Aunt Niu's demeanor like a mistress, or it was accustomed to it.

After that, Fang Jilian and his party headed towards the main hall under the guidance of Fang Chengling.

In a short while, the originally empty hall was filled to the brim. The two master chairs at the top were naturally given to Fang Jilian and the Chu family, while Niu Yiniang sat on an armchair at the bottom.

There are a lot of people here, and their seniority is complicated. For a while, the greetings came one after another, and it took nearly a stick of incense effort, and everyone was finally able to sit down.

"Father," Fang Chengling, who was sitting across from Concubine Niu, looked at Fang Jilian, the third grandfather, and asked a little strangely, "How many days are left before the prince's birthday? Didn't your letter say that it will take another two or three days to arrive?"

Afraid of her father-in-law's misunderstanding, Mrs. Fang San hurriedly added: "Fortunately, my daughter-in-law has cleaned up the yard where your father, mother and aunt live in advance."

Fang Jilian stroked his gray beard, glanced at Aunt Niu, and said with a smile: "It's not your aunt, she hasn't seen your sister for a year, and I want to come over to see your sister soon!"

Fang Chengling has only one younger sister with the same father and mother, that is Xiao Fang.

Speaking of Xiao Fang, Concubine Niu's slender waist became straighter, and there was a hint of arrogance at the corner of her mouth.

She has done two things right in half her life. The first is to climb on Fang Jilian's bed before she is sent as a servant; and the second is to give birth to this daughter.

Her daughter is much more promising than her two older brothers. She jumped to Longmen and became the step-wife of King Zhennan, from a humble prostitute to the most honorable woman in the entire southern Xinjiang, which made her life in Fang's house as her biological mother. Even better, except that there is no title of a wife, everything is there. Even Fang Jilian has to respect her a little bit, and the two sons are getting better and better... But recently...

Thinking of the second son Fang Chengxun, Aunt Niu's eyes darkened again. In the past two years, their life suddenly became unsustainable. First, the daughter was removed from the imperial concubine's order; then Fang Chengxun suddenly suffered a stroke, not only lost the wealth and the enemy country. His family property was also exiled because of his grievances; not long ago, even his brother Niu Xinglong was framed by a traitor and put in jail...

After Aunt Niu got the news, she couldn't sleep for days and nights. This time it was rare for King Zhennan to celebrate his birthday, and Aunt Niu hurriedly urged Fang Jilian to bring a large family over, planning to make a good plan with her daughter.

"A-Ling," Aunt Niu hurriedly said to the other party, "Hurry up and send a message to the palace, I want to meet your sister."

Aunt Niu thought that this request couldn't be easier, but she didn't want Fang Chengling to be embarrassed. She frowned and said, "Auntie, I'm afraid this is not going to happen..." He hesitated for a moment, thinking that Aunt Niu would always know, then Then he said, "My sister is now grounded by the prince."

What? ! Aunt Niu almost didn't jump up, and was about to ask a question, when she heard Mrs. Fang angrily complaining: "Auntie, you don't know, things have changed in the palace now, and the concubine doesn't know if it's against the prince. What the hell did he do, the lord let the prince and concubine take control of the central feeder of the palace! Now, how can anyone in the palace still remember Mrs. Auntie!" Speaking of this matter, Mrs. Fang San still finds it a little incredible, it is clear that the king of Zhennan does not like the prince Xiao Yi, I don't know how he was subdued by Concubine Shizi, and Xiao Fei...

The corners of Mrs. Fang San's eyes twitched, and she continued: "We went to the palace several times to ask to see the auntie, but all of them were rejected by the concubine, and kept saying that we should find the prince by ourselves..."

Saying that, Mrs. Fang San thought of something, and quickly gave Fang Chengling a sideways glance. If he hadn't caused those pickled things, how could he have put them in such a passive position!

Fang Chengling shrank in guilt, how dare he go to see King Zhennan. My sister once secretly asked Mama Qi to come to Fang Zhai to spread the word, saying that King Zhennan was very angry about that matter. If he went to the palace now, not only would he not be able to help his sister, he might even add fuel to the fire!

Naturally, Fang Chengling wouldn't tell Fang Jilian and Aunt Niu about these pickled things, and Aunt Niu was so angry that she didn't notice that the expression of the eldest son and daughter-in-law was wrong.

Concubine Niu's fair face turned blue and white with anger, and she clenched her fists and said angrily: "I have no respect! This prince concubine is really unruly! No, I have to go to the palace myself, I don't believe that I want to see my daughter, she is the only one. The junior dares to stop me!"

Aunt Niu has been used to it for more than ten years, and she feels that there is nothing she can't do by herself. But Mrs. Fang San can't be so optimistic. She has seen the power of the princess. Since the Concubine Shizi came, her family has suffered a lot.

But Mrs. Fang San won't be so stupid as to pour cold water on Aunt Niu. After all, Aunt Niu is always the biological mother of the little Fang, and she has a bit of face even in front of King Zhennan.

Aunt Niu became angrier the more she thought about it, Huo Di got up and said, "I'll go to the palace now!"

Fang Chengling originally wanted to persuade Aunt Niu to rest for a night before it was too late, but thinking that Aunt Niu's temperament was always unbiased, he moved his mouth and swallowed the words.

He gave Mrs. Fang a wink, and Mrs. Fang was reluctant, but she could only say: "Auntie, I will order someone to arrange the carriage, and I will accompany you to the palace."

Who wants to—

"No need!" Concubine Niu gave Mrs. Fang San a disdainful look. She only felt that this eldest daughter-in-law was really useless. She was still an elder, but she was restrained by a little girl, Concubine Shizi, "I'll go by myself!"

On the one hand, Mrs. Fang San was displeased, but on the other hand, she secretly breathed a sigh of relief: she also did not want to go to the palace to be angry.

Half an hour later, Fang Mansion's carriage arrived at Zhennan Prince's Mansion, and the concierge of the Prince's Mansion immediately opened the door diligently to welcome him.

Madam's biological mother came, and naturally she had to report back to Nangong Yue, who was in charge of the central feeder, so a woman in green clothes immediately went to Bixiaotang to report...

In the Bixiao Hall, Nangong Yue was leaning against the pillow of the beauty's couch.

Accompanied by the sound of hurried footsteps, someone picked up the curtain and entered. Xiao Rongxuan and Xiao Rongying, who were sitting on the small tucks, immediately regained their energy and cast their eyes together.

Ying'er came in holding a mahogany tray with a celadon bowl on it, braving the steaming white mist, the white air was thick, and the strong medicinal fragrance was blowing towards her.

Xiao Rongying happened to be closer to the door curtain, so she quickly stood up, walked over with big strides, and said with a smile, "Miss Ying'er, I'll take my sister-in-law's medicine."

Saying that, Xiao Rongying had already grasped the mahogany tray with both hands and worked hard secretly. Ying'er silently twitched the corners of her eyes. She glanced at Nangong Yue and gave a signal, then let go, and let the other party take the soup away.

Xiao Rongxuan, who didn't take advantage of this good opportunity, glared at Xiao Rongying and secretly regretted: I knew that the fourth sister was cunning, no wonder she just grabbed the position of being close to the eldest sister-in-law, and she didn't fight with herself, so she was waiting for this opportunity what!

Xiao Rongying walked over cautiously holding a mahogany tray, and smiled at Xiao Rongxuan on purpose: "Second sister, please let me go, sister-in-law should take medicine."

Xiao Rongxuan stood up reluctantly, her tone was gentle, but she gritted her teeth and said, "Fourth sister, you have to be careful, don't burn your sister-in-law."

"Thank you second sister for reminding me, my sister will save it." Xiao Rongying said slowly, she greeted Xiao Rongxuan's gloomy eyes without showing weakness, and then sat down on the small tumbler.

Xiao Rongying carefully picked up the medicine bowl, then picked up another spoon, scooped up a spoonful of the dark soup medicine, blew it diligently, put it to Nangong Yue's mouth, and said softly, "Sister-in-law, let me cool the medicine. Now, it won't be hot."

Nangong Yue felt a little speechless in her heart. This is medicine. Drinking such a spoonful, you must die of suffering.

She smiled slightly and said without doubt, "Fourth sister, I'll do it myself." After speaking, she took the medicine bowl from Xiao Rongying, took a sip to test the temperature, and then drank it.

Xiao Rongying realized that she seemed to be doing something wrong? But in the past, it was like this when I was helping my mother...

Before she could figure out where she was wrong, Xiao Rongxuan's delicate voice rang out, "Sister-in-law, do you feel bitter? I have some candied fruit here, so hurry up and eat one."

Xiao Rongxuan also came over with a small plate of candied fruit, skillfully pushed Xiao Rongying aside, picked up a candied fruit covered in sugar through the veil and brought it to Nangong Yue's mouth.

Que'er shook her head secretly, looked at her concubine sympathetically, and said to herself, "Where is this, where is it, is it a fight for favor?" She now knows what the phrase "the most difficult to accept the grace of a beautiful woman" in the book means, maybe it's the situation of the imperial concubine!

The two girls were fighting each other, and Yukou, who was waiting outside the house, reported: "Prince Prince, Concubine Niu is here."

Aunt Niu? Nangong Yue didn't react for a while, but Xiao Rongxuan reminded timidly from the side, "Sister-in-law, she is mother's biological mother."

Nangong Yue nodded slightly and let Yukou come in.

When Yukou finished telling the old lady, Nangong Yue couldn't help frowning.

The palace opened the main entrance to greet a concubine of Fangfu?

The maids who were waiting on the side also looked at each other in dismay, which was really unheard of.

According to the rules, the concubine is half a slave, so neither the concubine's room nor the relatives of the concubine's room can be regarded as serious relatives. If the concubine's family wants to visit, they have to go through the corner door, and they must obtain the consent of the wife. Not to mention Aunt Niu, Aunt Niu herself is a concubine. As far as the palace is concerned, the first wife of Mrs. Fang, Chu, is the wife of the family. joke!

It can be seen that in the past, how arrogant and arrogant Xiao Fang was in the palace, so that all the people in the palace forgot these basic rules.

In the morning, Nangong Yue was still sighing that the Zhennan Palace was really unruly, but she didn't expect this even more unruly thing to happen.

She couldn't help but gave a wry smile and instructed: "Baihui, take someone over and take Aunt Niu to the west side hall of Guanju Hall."

No matter what happened in the past, since the palace is now in charge of his own, he can't let a concubine from a foreign palace run rampant in the palace, which is really indecent.

After a pause, she instructed Que'er again, "Que'er, tell Concubine Wei and ask her to greet her."

Aunt Niu was Xiao Fang's biological mother, and it was only reasonable for a concubine of Wei to entertain her.

Baihui and Queer lead the order in unison.

Nangong Yue did not avoid Xiao Rongxuan and Xiao Rongying, the two of them heard clearly and could not help but froze.

Although Aunt Niu does not live in Luoyue City, she always comes once or twice a year. Every time, her mother calls them over and asks them to salutate and call her grandmother... My sister-in-law is so courageous, not only did she not go to greet her, but she even asked Wei Wei to greet her. Side concubine a concubine to entertain guests?

The two who were still "competing for favor" couldn't help looking at each other.

Baihui and Queer parted ways after leaving the yard, and Baihui hurried away in the direction of the second gate of the palace with the old woman who came to report the letter.

When they arrived, Concubine Niu's carriage had stopped at the second gate, and she was sitting on a chariot, surrounded by maids and wives, walking along the road paved with huge square stone slabs.

Seeing Baihui coming, a woman who was leading the way to Aunt Niu immediately explained Baihui's identity to her in a low voice.

It turned out to be the eldest maid of Concubine Shizi! Concubine Niu was disdainful in her heart, it seemed that Concubine Shizi knew that she was here, so she ordered her maid to welcome her!

Concubine Niu's mouth curled into a arrogant smile, she just said, she is the elder, the biological mother of the princess, the grandmother of the second son Xiao Luan, who dares to neglect her in this palace! ?

"I've seen Aunt Niu." Baihui bowed her knees to Aunt Niu righteously, and the standard of etiquette was such that people couldn't pick out the slightest mistake.

Seeing Baihui's obedient attitude, Aunt Niu felt even more proud. She raised her chin and said, "No gift! But the Concubine Shi asked you to come?"

Baihui followed Aunt Niu's words and replied, "Concubine Shizi ordered her servants to lead Auntie to Guanju Hall to sit down."

It seems that the princess is coming to visit me! Aunt Niu straightened out her plump breasts and said lightly, "Then I'll trouble the girl to lead the way."

Baihui gave a wink, and the old woman who had been leading the way to Concubine Niu respectfully withdrew.

The group moved to the Guanju Hall...

Gradually, Concubine Niu felt that the direction she was walking seemed to be getting more and more remote, and she could not help frowning slightly, but thinking that it was Concubine Shizi who invited her to go there, she finally suppressed it first.

After Aunt Niu was introduced into the West Side Hall, the maid immediately served hot tea. Concubine Niu just picked up the tea cup and poked it with the tea lid pretentiously, when she heard the voice of a little maid saluting outside: "I have seen Concubine Wei."

Aunt Niu's hand froze for a moment while holding the tea cover. She had also heard of the prince's concubine Wei, but she had never seen it before. It was estimated that this concubine Wei heard that she was here, so she came to pay her respects. .

In my thoughts, I saw a young woman in her twenties walking slowly outside the hall. She was wearing a lake-colored embroidered green calyx and plum blossom paired robes, a peony bun, and two white jade hairpins on her head. , looks dignified and elegant.

Aunt Niu paused for a moment on Wei Shi's beautiful face, and thought to herself: She is indeed enchanting, no wonder she is so fascinated by the prince... But what if this little bitch is a side concubine, what if she can't give birth to a son? use!

Wei Shi ignored the contempt in Aunt Niu's eyes and walked forward on her own.

"I've seen the side concubine." Baihui stepped forward and bowed to Wei.

Wei Shi quickly glanced at Aunt Niu and said with a smile, "Miss Baihui, it's hard for you."

"The side concubine is polite, this is the duty of a slave." After Baihui was blessed again, she retired.

Mrs. Wei sat down on the chair of the first teacher, and asked politely, "Aunt Niu came to the palace this time to visit his wife?" During the conversation, the maid also served Mrs. Wei some tea.

Aunt Niu was impatient and said lightly, "Exactly."

Wei Shi didn't care either, and repeated the rhetoric she used to the outside world: "Unfortunately, Madam has been unwell recently and has been raising her in the house, so it is inconvenient to see guests."

Aunt Niu snorted coldly and said nothing.

She was impatient to talk to Mrs Wei, so she slowly drank tea while waiting for the imperial concubine to visit her.

She thought that when the Concubine Shizi came, she must teach her what the elders were, and then ordered the Concubine Shizi to lead her to see her daughter in person.

However, after waiting, waiting until the tea is cold, why didn't the princess come?
