The Devious First-Daughter

On the street where Yiwang Mansion is located, there is only such a mansion facing south and backing north, which occupies the entire street. The gate of the mansion is thick and big mahogany, tall and cold, and there are several guards standing at the front gate every day. At that time, there was no movement at all, just looking at the situation, the people who entered the door were a little more careful.

Compared with this door, this mansion, no matter who enters the door, it is a bit weaker.

As for the back door of Prince Yi’s Mansion, it’s also called a side door, and it’s not just one place. The mansion is too big and covers too much area, so we had to set up several more back doors to avoid inconvenient travel. It is convenient to say that the one on the east side is called the east side gate, the one on the west side is called the west side gate, and the one on the north side is called the north side gate.

Those things like fruits and vegetables are often entered and exited through the side door near the east, because that place is close to the kitchen, and it is more convenient to enter from here.

As for some garden decorations such as trees, they all come in from the west side door, because the garden where the masters live in that place, and there is also a garden specially built for sundries, it is most convenient to enter from there.

Maids, servants, etc., when it is inconvenient to enter and exit through the front door for some trivial matters, they often enter and exit through the north gate, so in comparison, the north gate is also a lively back door. The west door and the east door go out.

The east side gate is very lively at certain times, but except for the certain time when the food is delivered in the morning, there are basically no people there at other times. As for the west side gate, it is even more deserted. There are almost no people, and the trees and the like are planted there, and it only needs to be pruned by someone. As for whether to introduce new varieties, it has to be decided by the superiors.

A maid-like person came in from the west door, and she was stopped by the gatekeeper's wife when she reached the door.

"Where did you come from? What's the matter?" The woman guarding the door glanced sideways, and said bluntly, she has enough confidence to work in Yiwang's mansion.

"I'm here to find my cousin. My cousin works next to Concubine Yun. Last time I told her about her father's illness, she wanted to bring me something. Did you bring it?" Ah Huan said politely with a smile.

"Oh, you are Hanyu's cousin next to Concubine Yun, I have something for you, just wait a moment." When she heard that it was the person next to Concubine Yun, the gatekeeper's mother-in-law immediately became polite, and her face turned pale. She smiled a little, nodded, turned around and entered a small room on the side, and took out a package from it.

"This is what Hanyu brought over, saying that there are a few taels of scattered silver and some clothes, you can take it and see for yourself."

"Thank you then!" the maid said politely.

"It's okay, you're welcome, the maid next to the side concubine, can we not take care of it!" The gatekeeper said with a smile, with a bit of flattery in her eyes, but it's true, this serious girl in Yiwang's mansion There are only two masters, and Princess Xianyun was the most official mistress before, but she has fallen from the position of the main wife today, and there is no guarantee that she will not go up in the future.

Originally, the side concubine could become a princess and become the only main room, so Princess Xianyun should at least have a high starting point, and it would not be difficult to change from the side room to the main room. The changes, at least one thing cannot be changed, this person's health is not good at all.

Who knows when it will be dead, just go there! At that time, Princess Xianyun will be the only female mistress in the mansion, or King Yi may re-promote the position of Princess Xianyun because of this. Who can predict what will happen to King Yi's mansion? Well, just depending on the prince's preferences, many things can be tossed about, and the emperor usually doesn't care about such things, and follows his wishes.

"I heard that an assassin came to your house earlier, are you okay?" The maid took the package and didn't leave right away, as if chatting with the woman who guarded the gate.

"It's okay! Several people died just like that. It is said that there are more injured people, but fortunately, our masters are all fine, and the dead and injured are all servants. It is finally a blessing in misfortune." The vice-queen looked terrified, and all servants knew that if something happened to the master of the mansion, it would be a big mess.

At that time, many people will die if they are implicated. It is normal for the woman guarding the door to say so.

"Princess Yi isn't frightened, I heard that she has always been in poor health." The servant girl seemed to be leaving, she shook her dress.

"It must have been frightening. Our concubine is weak and frightened. I don't know how many days I've been lying down." The woman guarding the door seemed to be loyal, and sighed, as a servant, she couldn't chat about the master Gossip, of course I can't go on at this time, so I turned around and walked inside.

Seeing the gatekeeper woman go in, the maid could not say anything more, so she had to turn around, walk out, out of the street where the side gate was located, and saw an ordinary carriage parked on it from a distance. Seeing that no one was paying attention, the maid hurriedly climbed into the carriage, the coachman raised his whip, and the carriage moved slowly, just like all the carriages on this street, neither slow nor urgent.

"How is it? Did you get the things?" Hua Qiuying sat in the carriage, looking at the maid nervously.

"Third Miss, I got it, here it is!" The maid nodded and handed the package to Hua Qiuying.

Hua Qiuying hastily opened it, and seeing the several clothes on it, her eyes lit up, and when she unfolded the clothes, there was actually a letter, a return letter written by Princess Xianyun to her.

After reading the letter, there was a bit of joy in the eyebrows, and the brows were lightly raised, and finally got in touch with Princess Xianyun.

"Go to the palace!" She said to the coachman outside in a voice.

"Yes!" The coachman responded, changed his course, and headed for the avenue of the palace.

Even the coachman didn't see that there was another carriage beside them. He was walking with them at a leisurely pace, but this time their carriage changed course, but the carriage did not. disappeared from each other's sight.

Hua Qiuying's carriage completely disappeared from sight, and the gentle carriage also changed its course, turned back, and then entered the intersection of the west gate of Yiwang Mansion. After turning in, the woman guarding the gate Seeing the carriage coming, he let the carriage drive in, and then closed the door silently.

Xinmei got off the carriage, and the coachman drove the carriage from the side to the front where the carriage was parked.

When Xinmei came to Lihua Garden, Ning Xueyan was looking at the invitation card in her hand, the invitation card of Heng Yuqing, or it could be said that it was the invitation card of the Ningguo Mansion, as an honorable person, the invitation card of the Ningguo Mansion Posting, in Xungui's circle, is still quite effective.

The reason for posting this invitation is the birthday of Mrs. Ning Guogong and his wife.

The Mrs. Ning Guogong was said to be a heroine back then, and she even went to the battlefield in person. The reason why the old Ning Guogong was able to obtain such a title was due to this Mrs. Tai. All the ladies and gentlemen of Ningguo gave their thumbs up.

Although it is said that this Mrs. Tai doesn't care about anything now, Yu Wei is still there, and she also has a lot of face in front of the emperor. This time it is her 70th birthday, so this invitation is naturally sent to Yi Wangfu.

"Wangfei, it was Hua Qiuying who came here by herself. After she read the letter, she didn't say anything else, she just said to go to the palace." Xinmei opened the curtain and came in, reporting that her eyes and ears are the best among the maids. Yes, so she heard Hua Qiuying's words even through a carriage.

Enter the palace? A trace of doubt flashed across Ning Xue's smoky eyes. She can be sure that no one is in the palace for Huajijiu. The emperor currently has more than a hundred women in the palace. They are the most unfavorable ones. Hua Qiuying's current appearance clearly shows that she can meet people directly.

Hua Qiuying can see people, which means that this concubine should be favored, and people who peeped at Concubine Xia's face before are spreading rumors that Concubine Xia should be related to Huaji Restaurant, and Ning Xueyan can be sure that it is Hua Qiuying Concubine Xia should be the one entering the palace to meet now, and Concubine Xia must have something to do with Huaji Restaurant.

"Master, do you want to ask the lord?" Lan Ning also heard some meaning from the side, made a cup of tea for Ning Xueyan, and asked in a low voice.

Ning Ziying was wronged, Lan Ning and Wang Momo cried for a couple of times, and then recovered. She was still the calm and decent Lan Ning in the past. Apart from being convinced and respectful of Ning Xueyan, there was even more I am a little more grateful, if only relying on their two servants, no matter what, they will not be able to avenge Miss Ziying.

"No, you don't need to disturb the prince, it's not a big deal." Ning Xueyan shook her head and stopped. Every time the Hua family was mentioned, Ao Chenyi's expression was filled with anger and disgust, which shows that he is serious about the Hua family. It's not to be seen, since this matter is related to Ao Chenyi's "Rotten Peach Blossom", Ning Xueyan thinks it's better to do it herself.

As for this Concubine Xia, Ning Xueyan is sure that there is something tricky in it, and she even has a more unbelievable idea, which makes her even more reluctant to let Ao Chenyi intervene, and Concubine Xia If you think you don't know, then relatively speaking, you are the one hiding in the dark.

Although Concubine Xia is the emperor's favored concubine, her status is extraordinary, but she is Princess Yi, her status is not low, and no matter what, it should be impossible for Concubine Xia to openly deal with her.

As for Mrs. Ningguo's birthday mentioned in the letter, of course she will go.

"Xinmei, let Liu Feng keep an eye on the back door of Duke Ningguo's mansion these few days. If there are any abnormal people waiting to come in and out, let him report to me quickly." Ning Xueyan took a sip of tea, then held the teacup quietly She thought for a while, and said to Xinmei that Hua Qiuying's letter also mentioned Ningguo's mansion, because there will be arrangements.

Concubine Xia, if it is really like the one I expected, or if this mysterious Concubine Xia will also appear in the Ningguo Mansion, it will be too shocking. Some things, Ning Xueyan has also been processed here.
