Chapter 129 Showing Loyalty
"Madam Duke, Princess Consort, I don't need these two beauties. To thank you for your help and care for me in my daily life, I plan to send them to the Duke's Mansion. You can arrange them for use as you please. Their indentures are all here. You can arrange them to do odd jobs in the Duke's Mansion, or you can sell them." The King of Qin stood in the hall of the Duke's Mansion, looked at the Madam Duke and the others seriously and said.
At this moment, he was followed by several servants. The two beauties stood behind the King of Qin very unwillingly, with obvious whip marks on their necks.
"Your Highness Prince Qin, this is the person that Concubine Ru gave to you. You actually want to give it to us? This... This is probably against the rules!" The Duchess looked at Prince Qin in surprise.
The King of Qin immediately explained: "Since it was given to me by Concubine Ru, and I have the indenture, I will take care of this person. You don't have to worry. Concubine Ru will not cause you any trouble. In the future, you can also change their names. Concubine Ru will not know at all. These two slaves are in your house. You can just treat them as slaves who were bought with money and indentured."
Xu Qingyan looked at the King of Qin and couldn't help but feel curious. [Huh? How did His Royal Highness the King of Qin get the woman's indenture? If it were according to Concubine Ru's personality, she would want to put her own people around the King of Qin to control them, so she would definitely not be willing to hand over the indenture.]
However, since the other party was a prince, she couldn't ask him directly. So, after Xu Qingyan hesitated for a while, she was too curious and decided to use her ability to spy again.
After Xu Qingyan knew about it, she thought excitedly in her heart: [So that's how it is! It seems that I didn't misjudge the King of Qin! This King of Qin is really smart and can endure. Since he brought the two women back to the mansion, he sent someone to the palace to report to the emperor the next day. He told the emperor that he was very grateful for Concubine Ru's arrangement. He liked the two women very much and wanted to raise them as concubines, so he asked the emperor for the indentures of the two women. When the emperor heard that his son just wanted two women, he immediately sent someone to Concubine Ru to get the indentures, and also blamed Concubine Ru for giving the indentures together when sending people. After the King of Qin got the indentures, he immediately directed and acted in a play, saying that the two women actually poisoned him! So, he had a reason to drive them out. Oh! No... In fact, he could have killed them directly. After all, this was a conspiracy to murder the prince. Even if he killed them, the emperor and the concubine would not say anything to him. But he chose to send them to the Duke's Mansion and let us deal with them? Is this... for Jin Yu? Hahaha... It must be like this, he was afraid that Jin Yu would get jealous and misunderstand, so he did this! 】
After hearing Xu Qingyan's voice, the Duke's wife was stunned and thought: It's for Jin Yu? The King of Qin... is really thoughtful! These two women committed such a serious crime. Logically speaking, they can be killed directly to eliminate future troubles, but he insisted on sending them to the Duke's Mansion. I'm afraid he really wanted to make Jin Yu feel at ease. It seems that the King of Qin really cares about his own Jin Yu. But after all, he is a prince. If he really becomes the emperor in the future, there will not really be only one woman in the harem. Now, even if he is infatuated, what can he do? This person will change, and she still doesn't want her daughter to marry into the royal family.
Pei Jinyu, who was standing by, was also very surprised after hearing Xu Qingyan's thoughts. She had not expected that the King of Qin would go to such lengths for her, and she was very happy at the moment.
Facing the King of Qin, Pei Jinyu was no longer as cold as before. Instead, she took the initiative to step forward and said to him: "King of Qin, is it okay if I ask them to clean the toilet for me and do hard labor? You won't feel bad, right? After all, they have been your women for a day."
Upon hearing this, the King of Qin's face changed slightly, and he quickly explained: "No... I have not touched them, they are just slaves. Since they have been sent to the Duke's Mansion, it is up to you to decide how to deal with them."
Hearing this, Pei Jinyu put her hands behind her back, looked down at her toes, and couldn't help but curl up the corners of her mouth.
When the two women heard that they had to clean the toilet, their faces suddenly changed. They said, "We were sent by the Imperial Concubine. How can we clean the toilet?"
They have always been skinny horses trained by the imperial concubine. Not to mention they have never cleaned the toilet, they have never even swept the floor or washed clothes!
But before Pei Jinyu could answer them, King Qin coldly rebuked them: "If you don't want this chance to live, forget it!"
Suddenly, the two women were so frightened that they dared not speak anymore.
After the Prince of Qin left the Duke's Mansion, Pei Jinyu really arranged for the two women to serve night incense in the backyard of the Duke's Mansion.
——The Imperial Palace——
Naturally, Concubine Ru sent people to monitor every move in the Prince of Qin's mansion. The fact that the Prince of Qin sent the two women to the Duke's Mansion did not escape her eyes.
"Asshole! Now, he is so treacherous and shameless! He played such a trick on me and then sent away the person I sent over!" Concubine Ru smashed the teacup to the ground angrily.
In just three days, she didn't expect that the King of Qin would actually kill the woman she arranged, and she couldn't even blame him. She naturally didn't dare to ask the emperor for justice, because she was afraid that the King of Qin would tell the emperor that the two women poisoned him, and if so, the emperor would suspect that she was the one who ordered them.
However, she was unwilling to swallow this anger. After thinking for a while in the room, she was reminded by the maid beside her and remembered to go to the queen. I remember that the emperor said last time that the mother of the King of Qin died early, and now the education of the King after returning to Beijing was arranged to be the responsibility of the queen.
As a woman, the Queen would have thought that the King of Qin should have a woman by his side. So, after Concubine Ru had calmed down, she went to see the Queen.
——Fengluan Palace——
"Sister, do you think the King of Qin can't stand me? How could my two carefully trained women do such a thing? Even if they had ten thousand courages, they would not dare to do it! If this was reported to the Emperor, he would definitely suspect me, but the King of Qin did not report it. I thought the King of Qin must just want to get rid of my people, so he didn't report it. But I'm doing this for his own good. He's already so old, and he hasn't even had a woman." Concubine Ru sat beside the Queen, complaining with a handkerchief and wiping the tears from her face.
The queen couldn't help but frown when she heard this. She sighed and said, "The King of Qin did this, which really let you down. It may be because he grew up in a fiefdom, so he developed this kind of temper! He is still immature, so you don't have to take it to heart. I will find a chance to talk to him properly."
Concubine Ru wiped her tears and continued, "Thank you for your hard work, Queen. Her mother and I had a good relationship when she was alive. I am sure I want to help Concubine Yun take care of her son. If he listens to you, you can persuade him to get married and have children as soon as possible. The last time I saw my daughter-in-law's biological sister, she was really good and a good match for the King of Qin."
"I'll have to persuade you further. Don't be too anxious." Upon hearing this, the Queen comforted Concubine Ru.
When Concubine Ru heard the Queen's words, she was delighted, thinking that the Queen was convinced by her. However, she did not notice the coldness in the Queen's eyes when she was not looking.
