"Thank you, sister-in-law."
Zhang was pleased to see this, and quickly walked up to her, pulled her arm, and said angrily: "Obey your husband after marriage, Jinghe hasn't divorced you yet, you want to run away?"
Zhang naturally wanted Wenxi to take in Qiao. After all, their family of four could get four bowls of porridge, and she would pour half of it from Qiao Yan's bowl every time, so that their family of three could have enough to eat. Besides, there would definitely be a lot of farm work to do in the place of exile. Zhang had already thought about it, and she would ask Qiao Yan to do it when the time came.
Now she wants to rely on Shang Ruoyi and work for her, so who will take care of their family of three?
"Divorce! I want a divorce!" Qiao Yan shouted loudly, "Divorce is always possible!" In Tianshun, women were allowed to ask for a divorce, but there were very few such women. After all, they had been taught the Three Obediences and Four Virtues since birth, and the rebellious nature in them had long gone.
When the word "divorce" came out, Zhang's mother and son were stunned. They didn't expect Qiao Yan to dare to propose a divorce.
"You dare to divorce?" Zhang put her hands on her hips, looking like a tigress, while Qiao Yan knelt on the ground crying, and it seemed that she was often bullied at home.
At this point, it has been confirmed that Zhang often abused her daughter-in-law, and no one would doubt that this was a good show directed and performed by Qiao Yan.
"Forget about the divorce!" The old princess said calmly, "Yan, come and serve me for a while, Zhang, you go back and reflect on it."
The old princess spoke, and the farce finally came to an end.
He Jingheng had been watching coldly from the side. He originally thought that Shang Ruoyi would keep the woman who seemed to have strong intentions, but he didn't expect that she actually took her in. This woman really made him see through her more and more.
It's only interesting if you see it through, right?
A woman like Qiao is disgusting at first sight.
The two spies of the prince looked at each other when they saw Qiao Yan stayed beside Shang Ruoyi.
One of them went to the woods behind on the pretext of urinating, and took the opportunity to pass the note out.
He Lingsheng looked at the note and a smile appeared on the corner of his lips. Finally, there was some good news during this period of time.
"Your Highness, since Mrs. Qiao has come to Prince Ding's family, we should let her take the opportunity to poison them and kill them directly, so as to avoid any more trouble." The little eunuch said softly, "As for Mrs. Shang, let's find a way to change her appearance and send her back to you, how about that?"
"Humph, when did you become my son?" He Lingsheng's voice was slightly cold. When the little eunuch heard it, he fell to his knees with a plop: "Your Highness, please forgive me. I am just worried that you will consider our past friendship. I have always been loyal to you and I have absolutely no regrets!"
"Forget it, get up!" He Jingheng said lightly: "It is precisely because I know that you have no 괗뀞, otherwise your head would have been moved long ago."
The young eunuch stood aside trembling with fear, as if he had been pardoned.
"I don't want to think too much. Although my father has taken over the military power of the Dingwang Palace, don't forget that the He family army only listens to the command of Prince Ding and He Jingheng. If you kill them all like this, I'm afraid something will happen."
"As for Shang Ruoyi." That beautiful face reappeared in front of He Jingheng's eyes, and he said in a deep voice: "Women are already there, and I am the emperor. What kind of women do I not have?"
"Your Highness is wise."
That night, at Concubine Zhao's place.
"Did Sheng'er really say that?"
"Your Highness, the eunuch Wang who is beside His Highness reported this, it must be false." Bixi gently rubbed Concubine Zhao's legs: "Your Highness, Miss Yufu asked if you need to send supper to His Highness the Crown Prince?"
"Hmph, this is something that is not presentable. How can an unmarried woman bring midnight snacks to a man at night? Who knows what she is thinking? After all, she is the daughter of the Prime Minister, how can she be so naive?" Concubine Zhao snorted coldly: "She is still dreaming of being the head of the concubines in the Eastern Palace? Being a concubine is already a compliment to her."
"Your Highness is right."
Concubine Zhao put down the fruit in her hand and frowned, "What kind of fruit is this? It's so sour and astringent. How can I swallow it?"
"All the fruits in the palace are like this now. A few days ago, the Western Regions sent a batch of melons and fruits as tribute, and they were all sent to the Queen's palace." Bixi whispered, "According to the servants, the Queen's morning sickness is very serious. She couldn't sleep all night, and she ate a lot of food."
"Humph, she gave birth to several princes in a row, and the imperial physician said this baby is also a prince, and the emperor still treasures her like a baby." Concubine Zhao picked up the teacup beside her and sneered, "What's the use of being favored? Giving birth to a son is useless."
"Your Majesty's blessing is naturally incomparable to that of a person with a lowly fate. No matter how noble the Queen is, she has given birth to a legitimate son. When the Crown Prince ascends the throne, who will remember her? Naturally, the Queen is respected." Bixi took the teacup and said with a smile: "According to the people in the Queen's Palace, the chef from Sichuan has arrived. The Queen has been shouting that she wants to eat some fresh, fragrant and spicy dishes all day long. The people in the Queen's mother's family are worried."
"Humph, the son I raised with great effort will naturally only recognize me. How could he let the Queen ride on my head?" Concubine Zhao sat up straight, picked up the portrait on the table, and said in a deep voice: "The legitimate daughter of the Duke of Zhenguo's Mansion does look a bit like that child."
"I'm sure the prince will be satisfied with this girl."
"Maybe! I'll find a way out someday, send the Shang family out of the palace, and then let her enter the palace!"
"Yes, madam."
"I heard from the people below that Shang Ruoyi is not very capable. Let them keep a close eye on her and kill her when the situation permits. This will also completely cut off the prince's thoughts." Concubine Zhao frowned and said, "It would be better if she was the legitimate daughter of the Shang Mansion."
Bixi also nodded: "The rest is nothing, but according to them, Shang Ruoyi can use hidden weapons. Some time ago, the assassins sent by Xiao Wangfu all died under her silver needles. And it seems that the poison of Xiao Wang's son was given by her. Prince Xiao is trying to find a way!"
Concubine Zhao frowned even more tightly. She didn't expect that she could hide it so deeply.
"Where are they now?"
Bixi thought for a moment and said, "We have probably reached the place of exile by now."
Concubine Zhao said in a deep voice: "Let them find a way to get rid of Shang Ruoyi."
With such an opportunity and such ability, if I could use it for my own benefit, I would definitely keep it.
Such a woman is the greatest help to He Jingheng, but the biggest threat to them.
Bixi's guess was correct, Shang Ruoyi and the others had already arrived at the place of exile.
People who have lived in warm areas all year round experienced for the first time what it means to be bitterly cold.
If it had been Youshang Ruoyi's cotton-padded clothes, the He family would have fallen ill long ago.
