Chapter 35 Concubine
This was the first time in Song Zijin's life that he drank too much. He woke up before dawn, feeling refreshed and very excited.
He glanced at Fu Yue who was sleeping on the bed with his mouth drooling, and was surprised at his laziness today.
She vomited every now and then last night, causing Fu Yue to secretly go to the kitchen to cook sobering soup in the middle of the night and she has no memory of it at all.
I simply thought Fu Yue was tired, so I didn't wake her up and went out alone.
A patient who came to the Women's Clinic yesterday had a serious problem and needed clean morning dew, so she wanted to get it herself.
When he finished his work and returned to the palace, it was already noon.
There was a palace carriage parked at the gate of the palace. She just took a quick look and went in through the back door.
The incense table had been set up in the front yard. Eunuch Wan cleared his throat and began to read the imperial edict.
Song Zijin was sneaking around behind a willow tree and eavesdropping.
The imperial edict said that Xiao Linyuan was harmed by a villain this time and suffered an injustice, and he must be avenged.
To celebrate his escape, Emperor Guangxi held another palace banquet and rewarded him with many precious medicinal herbs.
In addition, Zeng Yuanshuang was rewarded with a thousand taels of silver and ten pieces of Shu brocade for his contribution to the wedding.
The content of the imperial edict was speechless, and even Song Zijin, who only knew some gossip, couldn't help but criticize it in his heart.
But this matter seemed to have nothing to do with her. Just when she was about to turn around and leave, she saw Zeng Yuanshuang stand up and walk to Xiao Linyuan, holding his hand and looking at him affectionately.
Song Zijin couldn't describe how he felt.
My heart felt like it was stuffed with a ball of cotton.
But Xiao Linyuan did not resist and let Zeng Yuanshuang do what she wanted.
Song Zijin snorted lightly. He was indeed a superior, with top-notch acting skills and endurance.
Xiao Linyuan suddenly glanced behind the willow tree. Song Zijin felt guilty and subconsciously hid behind the tree trunk, not daring to breathe loudly.
I scared myself for a while before I realized why I was hiding.
He openly flirted with his brother's woman without feeling guilty, so why should she, a bystander, feel guilty?
Not far away, Xiao Linyuan looked at the sneaky shadow on the right side of the willow tree and curled the corners of his lips slightly.
What's in the backpack, kitten?
My mind is full of the kitten's coquettish look last night.
She is really thin. A thin willow tree can cover her entire body.
…
While collecting morning dew on the mountain, Song Zijin was originally looking forward to a delicious breakfast, but now he had completely lost his appetite and felt bored.
The kitten I picked up was snow-white all over, with a lot of earwigs on it, and its fur was stuck together, looking so pitiful.
It was so hungry that it gobbled up the food from the small bowl. Fu Yue ignored it and sat opposite Song Zijin, supporting her chin with both hands, her face full of worry.
"Girl, are you still feeling hungover from last night?"
"No, I don't feel drunk at all."
"That's because I made you two bowls of hangover soup last night, plus the one the prince ordered, you drank a full three bowls!"
Song Zijin was stunned. No wonder she couldn't help but urinate today.
"Your Majesty...does he know I'm drunk?"
Fu Yue nodded and whispered, "Not only do I know, but you also flirted with the prince last night!"
"What!" Song Zijin stood up suddenly, "I flirted with him?"
"You really don't remember anything? You threw yourself into the prince's arms, thinking he was a waiter in Yixianglou, and..." Fu Yue grinned evilly.
Song Zijin had a bad feeling, and her cheeks were burning hot. "What did I do?"
"You bit the prince's collar and touched his waist!"
If possible, Song Zijin would like to faint on the spot.
The most explosive thing is yet to come.
"Also, the prince told you not to go to Yixianglou anymore, but you complained that he didn't allow you to eat in the main house, saying that he was a bad man, and you insisted that you would go to Yixianglou to see handsome men in the future..."
Thinking about what happened last night, Fu Yue didn't know what to say. "Girl, don't drink anymore. You look like a female hooligan."
“…”
Song Zijin was in a state of confusion. She couldn't believe that she had said such a thing when she was drunk.
Fu Yue brought over the porcelain bowl of bird's nest and said, "If you can't finish it, don't force yourself to eat it. Drink the bird's nest instead."
Song Zijin has been drinking a bowl of bird's nest every day these days, and he can clearly feel that he has gained weight.
Is it because he is too thick-skinned that he subconsciously dares to say such disrespectful words to King Jinyue?
Song Zijin slapped his face hard, but the heat didn't dissipate at all.
At this time Chunsheng came and knocked on the door.
"Miss, the prince is calling you over."
Song Zijin looked like a rooster that had lost a cockfight, listless. Could it be that the prince saw that she was obsessed with the main courtyard and decided to be a good person to the end?
But Chunsheng did not take her to the main house, but to the outside of Ruifengyuan.
Zeng Yuanshuang was pestering on the side, and Xiao Linyuan looked impatient.
If I'm not mistaken, Zeng Yuanshuang should be looking for an opportunity to take Xiao Linyuan's pulse.
Seeing Song Zijin, Xiao Linyuan spoke in a low voice: "Come and push this king."
It seemed that he had taken a small amount of fake medicine today, so his voice was weak.
Song Zijin then realized that in the eyes of Zeng Yuanshuang and Xiao Jin, her role now should be that of a concubine.
So she trotted over, pushed Zeng Yuanshuang aside, and took the job of pushing the wheelchair.
"I have someone to take care of me now, so please return to the Xiao Mansion."
Zeng Yuanshuang twisted her handkerchief. She hadn't seen Xiao Linyuan since she entered the mansion. Only after seeing him today did she realize how elegant and refined he was, and how serene he was.
He looks somewhat similar to Xiao Jin, but his overall demeanor is much lower.
Even though he was ill and unable to walk, his majestic appearance could still be seen.
Like the mountains in the paintings, the pines on the mountains, the spring wind and the winter snow.
What was even more appealing was his identity. King Jinyue, the only king of a different surname, how noble he was.
She is this man's concubine, the only legitimate woman.
"Your Majesty, I am your concubine. It is my duty to stay and take care of you. Why do you always want to drive me away?"
Xiao Linyuan got goosebumps all over his body. How could a woman's voice be so hoarse?
"It's better not to leave. I will send someone to the Xiao Mansion to inform them that the concubine will not return to the Xiao Mansion. Tell Minister Xiao not to worry about her anymore."
When Xiao Jin was mentioned, Zeng Yuanshuang suddenly came to her senses. Xiao Jin had too many tricks up his sleeve, and for the time being, she couldn't openly disobey him.
She squatted down and wanted to get closer to Xiao Linyuan's ear, but was stopped by his eyes.
I could only laugh awkwardly and said, "Your Highness, I am your woman. If you have any requests, please feel free to contact me. For Your Highness, I can do anything."
After saying that, she stood up and left leisurely.
When I reached the back door, I was bumped by someone rushing out and found a note in his hand.
Zeng Yuanshuang quickly covered her nose. Did she fall into a cesspool? Why was it so smelly?
Only after she got into the sedan chair did she open the note with disgust.
It turns out that the person just now was Li Hai.
He complained that King Jinyue punished the people in the mansion after he woke up, and he could only work in the toilet and clean the feces in the stable when he had nothing to do.
He had skills but he couldn't display them in the palace where there were so many masters. Not to mention that he smelled bad every day, so even the best of his martial arts skills would be discovered.
Ask Zeng Yuanshuang to help put in a good word and get your original job back.
Zeng Yuanshuang rolled her eyes. As a servant in the courtyard of Xiao Linyuan, the concubine who cheated on her, it was considered merciful of Xiao Linyuan that she was not stabbed. It was good enough that she had a job in the toilet.
On the other side, Song Zijin silently pushed Xiao Linyuan into the yard, without saying a word.
On the way, I met Chunsheng who was carrying a tray with two untouched bowls of porridge on it.
After pushing the person into the house, Song Zijin bowed, turned around and left.
"etc."
Song Zijin stopped obediently, looking at him with puzzled eyes.
