The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(32)
But for Yao Niang, it was no less than a life-changing event.
She was born with a gentle personality. Many people once abused her as a vixen and a foxy woman. In fact, Yao Niang was a very honest girl and didn't have so many tricks.
She was born and raised in Jinzhou.
In Jinzhou, the King of Jin is the king and the heaven.
What he said was no less than an imperial decree to the people of Jinzhou.
Because of this idea, Yao Niang couldn't think of resisting since she entered the King of Jin's mansion.
For the Princess of Jin, yes.
For the King of Jin, the same.
But this time, she didn't want to obey again. She had died once, and she didn't want to die a second time.
Yao Niang raised her head and looked at the man who was so close. When her eyes touched the other's handsome face, she couldn't help but shrink her pupils. The feeling of being unable to breathe came unexpectedly, making her feel dazed.
But there was still a trace of clarity in her mind, and she didn't forget what kind of situation she was facing and what kind of choice she had.
She pursed her lips slightly, lowered her head, and her voice trembled, but she still forced herself to speak.
"Your Highness, please forgive me for not being able to obey your order. I am a married woman. Although my husband has passed away, I still have a young son and have no intention of remarrying. I came to the palace to work to raise my young son to adulthood. You are wise and brave, upright, and have a majestic demeanor. I believe you will not force a poor and weak woman..."
Undoubtedly, the King of Jin was annoyed, but this annoyance had nothing to do with other things. He might also be angry and ashamed of the challenge to his male dignity and status, but more of it was a kind of embarrassment and embarrassment.
He was a prince of the Daqian Dynasty, a prince. With his status and position, women all over the world could get him, but now he was rejected by a wet nurse.
Still being rejected in such a situation, he imitated those bullies who tried to "bully men and women", but the other party would rather die than obey...
But looking at the other party's appearance, his annoyance disappeared inexplicably, because he could see how scared she was, so scared that her whole body was trembling.
So pitiful.
Yao Niang's appearance was indeed quite pitiful. She seemed calm, but in fact it was just a layer of skin. A closer look could show how nervous she was. Her little face was pale, her hands were shaking, her lips were shaking, and even her thick eyelashes were trembling slightly. The corners of her eyes were red, giving people the feeling that she was about to cry in an instant.
Therefore, the words she said, which should have been righteous and unyielding, gave people the illusion of begging for mercy. It was like a little rabbit facing a wolf that wanted to eat it. It was obviously useless to resist, but it still stretched out its claws without sharp nails to deter it.
It made people feel both funny and pity.
The King of Jin pursed his lips and wanted to scold her, but he didn't know where to start. Could it be that she was wrong not to take off her clothes for him to see? But how could he admit that he was wrong with his personality?
So he could only hide his embarrassment and even embarrassment with a cold face, and said coldly: "Go down."
Yao Niang couldn't help but shiver, pressed her chest, and walked out with weak legs and feet.
When she got outside the door, she couldn't hold on any longer and slid to the ground.
She angered him.
This is good.
Yao Niang walked downstairs slowly. She was afraid that someone would notice something unusual, so she rubbed her face twice and took several deep breaths before going to the east room.
The east room was very quiet. Fu Cheng was not there. Yu Cui sat on the edge of the bed and looked at the sleeping little princess.
Seeing Yao Niang come in, Yu Cui subconsciously looked up at her.
"Hey, where is Fu Nei Shi?" Yao Niang pretended to be indifferent.
Yucui replied, "Eunuch Fu went to the bathroom."
Yao Niang nodded, came to the bed, and saw that the little princess was still sleeping. She went to the side to find some clothes that the little princess had changed, told Yucui to wash them, and hurried out with her head down while holding the things.
Yucui looked at her back and sighed almost silently.
Fucheng felt that he was old and it was really shameful to do such a thing, but after all, the life of His Highness was a big deal.
He stayed in the bathroom for a long time. Even though the bathroom was as clean and tidy as the bedroom, it was suffocating enough. He estimated the time in his heart and came out of the bathroom when he felt it was about time. Just when he arrived in front of the small building, he saw Prince Jin walking out of the door with a cold face, and hurriedly approached.
"Your Highness, are you going back to Chaohui Hall?"
Prince Jin didn't say anything, but just walked forward with big strides.
Fucheng glanced at his face. Didn't it work?
Why didn't it work? Could it be that His Highness couldn't handle a little wet nurse? Or did His Highness mess up because of his inexperience?
Fucheng thought the latter was more likely.
He didn't dare to ask more questions, but just followed behind the King of Jin with his head down. The King of Jin walked very fast, and he had to fight for his life to keep up. After waiting for the King of Jin to stop, he couldn't help it and whispered: "How about I ask An Shi to knock the little nurse unconscious and send her to His Highness's room?"
The King of Jin looked at him with very cold eyes.
As cold as ice.
Fucheng stopped talking immediately and acted like an honest quail.
Even so, the King of Jin didn't let him go. For the next half day, Fucheng was ordered by the King of Jin to run around the mansion. Obviously, this kind of trivial matter could be done by the subordinates, but the King of Jin ordered Fucheng to do it.
Fucheng knew that his own Highness was angry with him, but the key problem was that he was also innocent.
After a tiring day, at night, the King of Jin snorted coldly and announced that Fucheng's torture was finally over.
Fucheng, who was old and weak, handed over the task of serving the King of Jin to his grandfather's son Xiao Shunzi, and hurried to the small courtyard.
He went to the east wing and sat opposite Nanny Mu, sighing and complaining to Nanny Mu for a long time.
"Are you saying that the prince has taken a fancy to Nanny Su?" Rather than saying it was a question, it was not that Nanny Mu was not surprised, she just didn't expect it to happen so soon.
From the first day Yao Niang entered this courtyard, Nanny Mu paid attention to her.
Compared with the relatively lively Cuizhu, it was the silent and low-key Yao Niang who attracted her more attention. Nanny Mu had been in the palace for most of her life and knew what kind of woman was lovable. There were three thousand beauties in the harem, but how many of them could really make the upper class think about them? What can make him miss her is nothing more than having various advantages, such as outstanding appearance, pleasing personality, and like Yao Niang, who is born to be a beauty that men cannot resist.
Nanny Mu originally thought that the girl from the Xu family was just extraordinary, and she didn't know where she got such a beauty. Nanny Mu knew about the open and secret struggles between the Princess of Jin and the Concubine Hu, but she never got involved, because she had seen too many such things, and she didn't think that this level of harem struggle would involve men.
Even if there was, it would never be the Prince of Jin. The Prince of Jin was raised by Nanny Mu, and she understood the character and methods of her young master.
And Nanny Mu subconsciously hoped that the Prince of Jin would have as many women as possible, only in this way could he reproduce and prosper.
"This little woman is a virgin and has a child. Doesn't your Highness despise her?"
Hearing what Mu Ma said, Fu Cheng's eyes flashed, and he smiled and said, "How can your Highness speak directly to us servants about this kind of thing?"
Mu Ma nodded: "That's true. Your Highness has always had his own ideas. In fact, it's okay. The ability to bear fruit means that the field is fertile, which is better than choosing a barren land where crops can't grow no matter how hard you work."
Fu Cheng didn't respond to this. He knew who Mu Ma was talking about in the barren land, and it was the Princess of Jin.
Thinking that the other party didn't know the truth, he didn't speak directly, but he kept regretting that he had come to the wrong place today. There were some things he couldn't say clearly, so he could only be vague, but who was Mu Ma? She had been in the palace longer than him and had more experience than him. He was afraid that she would see something through a few words, which would be bad.
So Fucheng did not dare to complain anymore, and even forgot what he wanted to do here. He hurriedly said goodbye to Mu Mama and left.
Mu Mama was left sitting cross-legged on the Luohan bed, looking at his back with her old eyes, her eyebrows twisted unconsciously.
Chapter 25
The King of Jin was indeed angry all day.
This anger was not only because of Yao Niang, but more because of Fucheng's ignorance and contempt.
He was a prince, but he needed his subordinates to knock a woman unconscious and send her to his room. What else could he do if not contempt? It was just adding fuel to the fire that was ignited by Yao Niang before!
He could not bully the little nurse, lest he was not wise and brave, not open and aboveboard, and not swallowing up the mountains and rivers, and naturally chose to bully Fucheng who was unaware of his bad mouth.
Seeing Fucheng being raped, the King of Jin felt a little bit of shame.
But he still felt unhappy, because the pale face of the little nurse would always flash before his eyes. The noise outside after she went out was naturally heard by King Jin, and a sense of annoyance arose inexplicably.
She was really timid, and must have been scared. In fact, he didn't want to do anything, just wanted to take a look...
After thinking again and again, King Jin ordered people to go to the small courtyard early the next morning.
Compared with King Jin, Yao Niang was also absent-minded for the whole day.
An indescribable feeling, afraid that someone would come and order her to pack up and leave, afraid that King Jin would get more and more angry and punish her after he returned, and there were other things that she couldn't figure out.
After a sleepless night, Yao Niang woke up the next day and saw herself in the mirror, with a faint blue under her eyes.
Unfortunately, she never used rouge and powder, and she didn't prepare such things. She couldn't cover it up, so she could only go to work with these dark circles under her eyes.
Yao Niang was born white, so the dark circles under her eyes were particularly obvious. Yuyan was a little surprised when she saw her. When she learned that she didn't sleep well at night, she couldn't help sighing and saying that she had never been like this when she was on night duty before, so why couldn't she sleep at night now that she was not on night duty?
