Chapter 337 Winning a Man in One Move
"Luo Kui, as the Crown Prince, he has not only the Crown Princess but also two concubines, and even more concubines and maids. If she gets angry over just one concubine, she's not Bai Miaojun anymore!"
Xiao Jiuyue looked at them and shook her head. From her experience, Bai Miaojun was also an ambitious girl, otherwise she would not have waited another year before entering the Prince's Mansion!
With the status of the Bai family, it is still a little short of becoming the prince's concubine.
"But, but..." Luo Kui wanted to refute, but the words were on the tip of her lips and she couldn't say a word.
"I'll go and ask around." Donggui took the initiative to speak.
Xiao Jiuyue looked at her and reminded her, "It's raining outside."
"It's okay. I have nothing to do here." Dong Gui got Xiao Jiuyue's affirmation and went out wearing a straw raincoat.
Luo Kui looked at Lian Xin and said, "Do you think Bai Miaoyun will really take good care of Qiao Huilan?"
"Of course." Lian Xin answered without thinking: "Whether she entered the prince's backyard or not, she was the one who took the blame for the prince."
"But, she wants to snatch the crown prince from her?" Luo Kui felt that Bai Miaojun would definitely not take good care of her. She said, "Let's make a bet."
"Okay." Lianxin smiled so hard that her eyes narrowed. It seemed that next month's money for cosmetics was settled.
"Luo Kui, you really have no memory at all." Xiao Jiuyue almost spit out the tea in his mouth. Luo Kui just lost the bet with Lian Xin, and now he is betting again?
Xiao Jiuyue even suspected that Luo Kui lost all her monthly salary in bets with others. If this continued, would she have any money left over from her monthly salary?
"Miss, do you think I will lose?" Luo Kui tilted her head. The more she thought she was going to lose, the more she wanted to bet. She said, "Miss, I don't think she would be happy about this. This woman's mind is smaller than a needle tip!"
…
The home of County Magistrate Qiao.
"Sister Huilan, come quickly. I asked someone to stew an old hen for you today to replenish your energy and blood." Bai Miaoyun walked into the room with a smile on her face. Unlike the distant way she addressed her as 'Miss Qiao' at the beginning, she now called her 'Sister Huilan' affectionately.
"Sister Miaoyun, how can I feel comfortable doing that?" Qiao Huilan looked at Zhu Hong holding the hot chicken soup in her hand. During the two days when she was injured, Bai Miaoyun almost fed her three meals a day to replenish her body.
It was either hen soup, pigeon soup, red bean porridge, or pork liver soup. Bai Miaojun felt like she was about to vomit, but it was Bai Miaojun who brought it to her with a smile and said that it was the best soup for replenishing qi and blood according to the doctor. Qiao Huilan couldn't refuse it at all.
"Sister Huilan, you saved His Highness. As His Highness's concubine, I must protect you well. Otherwise, how can I face His Highness?" Bai Miaoyun smiled and walked to the bedside and sat down, patting her hand gently. "Sister Huilan should take good care of your health. Otherwise, how can you give birth to children for His Highness in the future?"
Bai Miaoyun's straightforward words made Qiao Huilan, who was still a virgin, instantly shy. Her fair cheeks instantly turned red, like the sunset in the sky.
"Are you sorry?" Bai Miaoyun said jokingly, "Sister Huilan, you can't be so shy. When you return to Shengjing, come find me if you have any problems. I'll help you."
"Sister Miaoyun, you are so nice!" Qiao Huilan was instantly moved to tears, and completely forgot about Bai Miaoyun's previous mood swings!
"Silly girl, you saved His Highness, and that means you saved me too. You're my savior. If I don't treat you well, who will?" Bai Miaoyun took the hen soup from Zhu Hong and said, "This is an old hen I asked Zhu Hong to pick out. The soup is incredibly delicious. Drink it while it's hot!"
"Yeah." Qiao Huilan drank chicken soup and listened to Bai Miaoyun's words. She was both looking forward to and nervous about going to Shengjing.
Bai Miaoyun sat for a while and then left. Qiao's mother came over with Qiao Huiwen and saw Qiao Huilan grinning foolishly. Qiao's mother looked at the bowl of chicken soup beside her and said, "Is this the chicken soup sent by the Empress? Huilan, from now on you must obey the Empress. The Empress is a concubine. When you go to Shengjing and enter the Crown Prince's harem, you will have someone to take care of you."
Mother Qiao smiled, as if she saw the scene of Qiao Huilan entering the palace as a concubine in the future. By then, there would be a concubine in the Qiao family palace, and her status would be different, and it would rise with the tide!
"Mom, I know. Sister Miaoyun said that she would protect me when we get to Shengjing." Bai Miaoyun said with a red face.
"Your Majesty is right. Don't keep using your favor as an excuse. Serve the Crown Prince well and give birth to a son soon. Your future will be good!"
Mother Qiao glanced at her belly, picked up the chicken soup beside her and said, "Miaoyun, there's still some chicken soup here. Drink all the chicken. Hurry and get well."
Qiao Huiwen watched the two of them interacting with each other and couldn't help but remind them, "Mother, you said before that you didn't want to be a concubine."
In the past, Qiao's mother was very opposed to her sisters becoming concubines, saying that they were daughters of officials, and if they became concubines, wouldn't it tarnish their father's reputation?
"Huiwen, the prince's concubine, how can you call her a concubine?" Qiao's mother turned around with a cold face, looked at Qiao Huiwen's unhappy expression, raised her hand and poked her forehead and said, "You silly girl, you don't want to be a concubine of an ordinary family, but it's different for the prince. You want to be the queen in the future..."
Mother Qiao lowered her voice, and after confirming that no outsiders were around, she said, "The Crown Prince will succeed to the throne, and by then, your sister will be the Empress!"
"Mother, can I, can I really do this?" Qiao Huilan felt elated. She always felt that this was all like a dream. The Crown Prince, who was so high and mighty, as if he were in the clouds, had suddenly come to live in their home. She had even saved the Crown Prince by accident, and now, she was going to become one of his concubines...
Even if I beat Qiao Huilan to death, I would never have thought that she could marry so well!
"Silly girl, the prince has already agreed, so why not?" Qiao's mother said with a smile. Although it was not so pleasant to say that entering the backyard in exchange for a favor, but, let alone the fact that the master was a county magistrate, even if it was the prefect's daughter, I'm afraid she would not be willing to give up this opportunity, right?
"Mother gave birth to seven children. Except for two who died young, you two sisters and your three brothers are all doing well. You should take good care of your health and make this a done deal before we return to the capital." Mother Qiao looked at Qiao Huilan and said, "If we return to Shengjing, you will still have the Crown Princess and concubines. It will be even more difficult for you to see the Crown Prince!"
"Mom." Qiao Huilan's face instantly turned as red as a monkey's butt.
"Don't be shy. All women have to go through this. Your future son and my future grandson will belong to the royal family!" Mother Qiao's face was wrinkled with smiles when she thought of this scene. She solemnly warned: "If you can get pregnant at home, you will have a talisman when you go to Shengjing!"
"If we have another boy, that would be even more amazing!" Mother Qiao said, then felt it was unlucky. She said, "I gave birth to three sons before you and your sisters. You can definitely give birth to a son too!"
