Chapter 17 Concubine

"But that rebellious son disobeyed me in court today, and I couldn't swallow this breath. Jiapin, guess what I did? I think this move will definitely be able to deal with this rebellious son."

The emperor squinted his eyes and enjoyed Jiapin's massage.

Jiapin's hands trembled: "What? I am stupid and can't guess the emperor's intention."

The emperor pushed Jiapin's hand away, sat up on his own, and was very pleased with himself.

"I have granted several concubines to the palace, both male and female. Isn't Prince Hexuan eager to protect his wife? I want to see if their love is as strong as gold.

If he accepted it, there would be resentment between the two of them. If he didn't accept it, people would say that Princess Hexuan was jealous, which is a bad behavior! ”

Jiapin gritted her teeth and smiled: "Your Majesty was born to be the emperor. You are the only one in the world who can think of such a plan."

What a despicable method! Even the wives of ministers would not be willing to do such a thing.

Unfortunately, the people around him didn't feel Jiapin's ridicule at all. They were just immersed in the joy of making Xie Jingyu somersault.

Wei Qingcheng was still worried that Xie Jingyu would be embarrassed when he went to court today, so she sat in the mansion and waited for a long time, but when Xie Jingyu didn't show up,

But what I saw was a group of men and women in colorful clothes, led by a eunuch with an unfamiliar face.

The eunuch's shrill voice said, "The Emperor has given his order! Princess Hexuan is infertile, but the royal family is lenient and has granted her a concubine to continue the prince's lineage!"

"Your Highness, I thank you for your grace!"

Wei Qingcheng led these people to the backyard. It was not like he had not thought about this before. He had clearly decided beforehand that if Xie Jingyu had a lover, they would get divorced and he would just return to the Wei Mansion.

But these people...

He looked at those people. Women were sent to continue their family line, so what was the point of sending a man away? Was it to humiliate him?

"Butler Song, please take these people to settle down first. We can discuss other matters after the prince comes back."

Butler Song took the group of people away.

Wei Qingcheng sat alone in front of the stone table in the courtyard. Although he didn't care about the rumors, he was really embarrassed this time.

When he decided to marry his sister off, he threw aside his dignity and shamelessly asked his father for help. However, from the proposal to the marriage, Xie Jingyu gave him enough face.

He was very grateful, and in his heart he had long regarded Xie Jingyu as a rare good friend. However, when he thought about having to get along with all the girls in this room in the future, he felt very uncomfortable, as if a big stone was blocking his heart...

"Qingcheng!"

Xie Jingyu looked a little flustered. He hadn't even changed out of his court robes, and there was some dust on the hem of his clothes.

Seeing him like this, most of the depression in my heart dissipated. "You are back. You are not in trouble, right?"

"No, I only found out halfway through that the palace had sent someone here. I left through the Donghua Gate after court, and they took a shortcut. I was worried about you... so I rode back as fast as I could."

He frowned, wanting to explain but afraid that Wei Qingcheng wasn't jealous at all, and he didn't seem to have the right to explain.

But even if there is nothing, he has to make it clear and sort it out.

Never let the person in front of you suffer any grievance.

He stepped forward and held Wei Qingcheng's thin shoulders.

"Qingcheng, this is not my intention, and it is not your fault. I offended that person in the court this morning, and he deliberately made things difficult for me. My informant reported it..."

He was sincere and frank, as if there was nothing he couldn't share with Wei Qingcheng.

Wei Qingcheng felt that her heart was in turmoil again.

It's my heart that's not in good condition. I guess I need to find time to see a doctor.

After explaining the whole story, Xie Jingyu looked at Wei Qingcheng nervously.

Wei Qingcheng smiled and stroked his brow with her white and warm fingertips: "Don't worry, we will not be separated. Women are jealous. I am a man, what should I be afraid of? If you don't want to accept it, just refuse it.

As for the rumors, does he think that the connections in our Wei Mansion are dead? You just watch. When we got married, no one dared to say anything. I wonder if anyone would dare to say anything now. ”

"Qingcheng, you are so nice,"

Such a big man rested his head on his waist and abdomen. Wei Qingcheng felt a little weird, but also felt inexplicably warm and secure.

He raised his hand and touched Xie Jingyu's long hair. It must be very uncomfortable to be plotted against by his own father in the court.

He replied softly, "Hello to you too,"

I'm not good, I'm not good at all, Qingcheng you're so good, I don't want to let go at all, what should I do...

Xie Jingyu hugged Wei Qingcheng's waist, breathing in the fragrance of the herbs in his arms, and screamed wildly in his heart

…

"The world is really going downhill. Have you heard? Today, the person above gave a few concubines to Prince Hexuan."

"Ah, if it's granted, then it's granted. Isn't that normal? Don't all royal families have three wives and four concubines?"

"No, have you forgotten? The princess is the second son of the Wei family, and I heard that there are both men and women in it. Isn't this bullying?"

Two women dressed as men were chatting in the pub, and a man from another table came over.

"Second Master Wei! I'm not saying that he could marry anyone he wanted, but he got married by someone else and was willing to endure this humiliation. He deserves it!"

The two women were pissed.

"No, how can you talk like that! He can marry if he wants to, it's his freedom, what does it have to do with you? Why are you barking like a dog here?"

"I was just about to ask, what's wrong?" The two gangs started arguing.

The owner came over and acted as a peacemaker, sending fruit plates to both tables.

The man watched the store owner and the people at that table settle the dispute and felt that he was right.

He got louder and louder: "If you ask me, Prince Hexuan shouldn't have sent the concubine away. The Second Young Master Wei is so jealous, and the prince can't rely on him to have children in the future. Is he going to use a knife to install one for himself..."

The words were too unbearable to hear, and the shop owner couldn't stand it anymore, so he called his thugs over and said, "We merchants have more or less done business with the Wei Mansion, and we have received a lot of favors from the Wei Family over the years.

No matter what the princess does, she shouldn't let people like you point fingers at her. If there are similar situations again, the tavern's thugs aren't paid for nothing! ”

…

After hearing this, the Wei family also talked about it at the dinner table.

Mother Wei praised Xie Jingyu's performance this time: "Jingyu is still very good. She did a clean job on this matter. Otherwise, Qingcheng would be upset. Even if this child was upset, she kept it to herself. Fortunately, she now has someone who understands her."

Father Wei stroked his newly-repaired beard and nodded: "It's not so bad!"

I thought to myself, this kid really did not break his promise, but this was only the first time, and I'm afraid he will do this many times in the future.

"It seems that Qingcheng has not been wronged. I was wondering why Qingcheng was so stubborn in marrying the prince. It seems that the two of them are deeply in love!" Wei Minghui said with a smile.

Mother Wei glanced at her and said, "You still say Qingcheng is shameless. I see that you two sisters are exactly the same. What do you mean by deeply in love? You are a girl and you haven't even got married yet. Stop saying these words."
