The Concubine in the Palace_The Feast of Masks【Complete】(65)
King Jin cleared his throat, and Fucheng went outside honestly. He didn't stand far away, but stood by the door.
"Your Highness, can this slave help you change the tea?" Yao Niang said.
Prince Jin raised his eyes and glanced at her, then nodded.
Yaoniang changed the tea and put it on the table beside him. She could neither stay nor leave. Especially when King Jin always looked at her with a pair of dark eyes, she began to feel nervous inexplicably.
"Why do you, Your Highness, want to come here? In fact, you don't need to take me with you. Brother Zhou has promised me that he will pick me up when he goes back..."
In fact, Yao Niang regretted it as soon as she said the words, and as expected, King Jin's face turned cold.
"Does this king allow you to call him Brother Zhou?"
Well, it was obviously inappropriate, but Yao Niang had the idea that if she didn't call her Brother Zhou, what should she call him? Is he really jealous?
But apart from being jealous, Yao Niang didn't know what to think. From that day he snatched her away on the street and punished her severely, and to this day he came to Yao's house so early, it was all a sign of trouble for King Jin. He was jealous, and seemed to be jealous of Zhou Sheng.
She glanced at him secretly and saw that his brows were slightly furrowed and he was glaring at her with a fierce gleam in his eyes.
Yao Niang was too familiar with this kind of light. Every time he tormented her, she would always look at her like this. This is not the Jin Palace, this is the Yao family... Yao Niang subconsciously became timid and wanted to please him, "If you don't let me scream, I won't scream."
King Jin looked at her. Although he was sitting and she was standing, Yao Niang felt a sense of oppression for no reason.
It wasn't until she saw him nodding that she breathed a sigh of relief. She looked at him again, but he didn't look at her anymore, but didn't know what he was thinking.
After a long while, Prince Jin glanced at her: "Why are you standing there? It's not like there are no chairs here."
Yao Niang immediately found a chair to sit on.
When Fang sat down, King Jin had another objection, "Why are you sitting so far away!" He tapped the chair next to him with his chin, and Yao Niang could only stand up again and sit down to follow him.
Only then did Prince Jin focus on her, looking her up and down, "You have to be conscious."
What consciousness?
Yao Niang's expression was so shallow that King Jin could see through it at a glance. He frowned and said patiently: "You are my wife, you are not allowed to flirt with those rickshaw drivers and arresters. Next time, I won’t spare you!”
Forget about the coachman, he refers to Zhou Sheng.
Catcher? Yao Niang suddenly remembered Chen An whom she met yesterday. Could it be that King Jin was talking about him?
She looked at King Jin in confusion, but King Jin did not respond, but said with disgust: "Who is that woman? If I hadn't seen that she was from this family, I would have had her dragged out. "
Today's King Jin really surprises Yao Niang. King Jin would never tell her so much before. How should I put it, Prince Jin seems to understand a lot better today.
Inexplicably, Yaoniang's heart felt sweet. He was obviously domineering and unreasonable.
"She is my brother-in-law's little sister!" she whispered.
King Jin snorted, "It's pretentious and inappropriate."
Yao Niang couldn't help but want to laugh, and then she laughed too, earning another cold snort from King Jin.
Looking at his face again, it looked strange, as if he was a little embarrassed. Yao Niang rubbed the corner of her clothes and whispered: "I'd like to ask you a favor, please?"
"explain."
"Well, my sister knows what happened between us." Yao Niang couldn't help coughing twice, and then whispered: "My sister beat me to protect me, and she got very angry on the way, saying that you... if If she offends her later, can you please stop annoying her..."
Yao Niang's words were so thought-provoking that King Jin couldn't help but wonder what her sister knew, how she told her sister, and what her sister said about him.
But King Jin had the nerve to ask this question in person, so he could only say yes.
After receiving King Jin's reply, Yao Niang was very happy and said briskly: "Thank you, Your Highness."
This is a girl who doesn't hide her emotions. When she is happy, you can clearly hear the excitement in her voice, and she even has a clear smile on her face.
But Prince Jin had never seen such a smile.
He has seen more of her begging for mercy, being docile to the point of losing her temper, or being cautious and timid for fear of making mistakes.
Only there is no such smile.
King Jin suddenly understood why she didn't want to have a status and was only willing to be a wet nurse, because she couldn't compete with Concubine Hu, not to mention the princess.
At the same time, he felt a little uncomfortable in his heart. Could it be that serving him made her so unhappy?
Huiniang dragged Sister Yan to the east chamber fiercely, and when she entered, she saw Yao Cheng in the room.
Yao Cheng looked at her in a panic.
Inexplicably, he just felt guilty.
Huiniang glared at him fiercely, and for fear of scaring the three children, she took Sister Yan to the inner hut. Yao Cheng chased after her. Li just came in from the outside and saw many people standing in the yard. She quickly closed the door and went to the inner room.
This was probably the first time Huiniang, who had always been knowledgeable and sensible, showed such an expression that was almost a sneer.
In fact, it was not the first time. The other time was when Yao Niang had an accident, and Hui Niang also looked like this. In order to beg her to come back, Yao Cheng should have tried every means possible, but it was Yao Niang who persuaded Hui Niang, and Hui Niang came back.
He looked at Huiniang in panic: "Huiniang..."
Huiniang ignored him and just took a deep breath. Sister Yan was still asking Huiniang to let go of her, but Huiniang listened to her words and let go of her hand. She fell unsteadily and fell to the ground.
Mrs. Li saw this scene when she came in: "Su Huiniang..."
Madam Hui looked at her: "Don't point at my nose. There are so many people standing outside. If you are not afraid of being embarrassed, just go ahead and make a noise!"
Li became silent immediately.
Huiniang glanced at the three of them and suppressed the endless turmoil in her heart: "I know what you are planning. But I also want to tell you, if you don't want to cause trouble for the Yao family, just keep going. What trouble will you bring? Come on, don’t blame me for not reminding you!”
Li couldn't help but said: "Why do you want to attract trouble? How could it be that if you encounter such a good opportunity, if Sister Yan really makes the prince like you, our family will be prosperous in the future..."
Huiniang ignored her and turned to look at Yao Cheng: "You think so too?"
Yao Cheng was speechless.
In fact, Yao Cheng really thought this before. The appearance of King Jin was so unexpected that when the disbelief in his heart faded away, it was replaced by an almost excited mood.
In particular, Mrs. Li made Sister Yan come out again. Yao Cheng wanted to stop her, fearing that Sister Yan would hit the noble man, but Mrs. Li pulled him down and said something, which made Yao Cheng unable to help but move his mind.
Regardless of whether it can work or not, there is no harm in trying. If it really works...
People are always obsessed with the world of possibility and allow a trace of delusion to expand into disaster, so Yao Cheng was tempted. He was not a stupid person, so he found an excuse to avoid going out. Even if Sister Yan really messed up, at worst, he would immediately come out to scold her and say that her sister was ignorant.
It was a good idea, but unfortunately they misjudged Huiniang's reaction.
If Yao Niang hadn't been involved, Hui Niang wouldn't have said anything even if she felt disgusted. But it happened that Yao Niang was in front of him, and the King of Jin came to Yao's house just for Yao Niang. What does it mean if the mother and daughter have an affair?
Although Huiniang was also a little disgusted with King Jin and felt that he had bullied others and bullied her sister, she had not thought about how to deal with the relationship between her sister and King Jin. But the relationship between his sister and him was already like this. Judging from his appearance, his sister seemed to have some unusual feelings for Prince Jin. How could she allow Sister Yan to do bad things? !
Sister Yan's behavior always made her think of Chen An, Zhou Sheng, and even more so her sister was in a dilemma. Who was responsible for it? To put it bluntly, it was all Sister Yan.
"A woman who lost her virginity and gave birth to a child before she was married actually wants to seduce the prince. Not to mention whether the prince likes her or not. Even if he does, you'd better ensure that you can hide this matter, otherwise it will be The end is imminent."
Can you hide it? Impossible. Almost everyone knows about Sister Yan.
Li Shi said unwillingly: "Then what is Su Yaoniang's ability to let a prince come to her door?"
To put it bluntly, no one is a fool. Even if Fucheng's excuse is very deceptive, it does not mean that no one can understand its meaning.
Men love sex, but they don't care whether you are a widow or not and have a son.
These words were undoubtedly a stab in Hui Niang's heart, but naturally she would not show weakness at this time. She looked at Yao Cheng with a sneer, "I've already said what needs to be said, you can decide what to do on your own!"
Yao Cheng did not hesitate for too long and said in a calm voice: "Until the prince leaves, Sister Yan will stay in this room and is not allowed to go out."
"Brother..."
"Cheng'er!"
Yao Cheng looked at Mrs. Li with some irritation: "You know what your daughter is like. If you fail, you will fail. But once this matter fails, it will cost our whole family!"
He smiled bitterly and said to Huiniang: "Huiniang, I was wrong and lost my head for a moment."
Huiniang snorted coldly, then turned around and went out. Yao Cheng followed hurriedly, trying to get his wife's forgiveness.
The meal was quickly prepared and placed on the square table in the hall.
The dishes are very simple, that is, the ordinary seven dishes and one soup, all home-cooked dishes.
Yao Cheng invited King Jin to sit down. Logically speaking, as the master, he should accompany him. But King Jin didn't say anything, and Yao Cheng didn't dare to sit down.
Yao Niang was about to ask her brother-in-law to leave to save him from embarrassment, but King Jin asked Yao Cheng to sit down with him.
