Chapter 162
"By the way, Crown Princess, you don't need to look for beauties for me these days. The court has been busy lately, and there are several more concubines and concubines in the palace. The emperor's uncle is also keeping an eye on the East Palace all the time."
Xuan Yi took the initiative to speak to Xu Chunhua who was about to leave.
It was obvious that Xuan Yi was in trouble.
What Xu Chunhua has done recently has been a bit too much. It can be said that she has forced those beautiful and wealthy women into the palace.
Previously, there was a woman in the Eastern Palace who could not bear the humiliation and committed suicide by jumping into a well.
It doesn't matter if those maids who were born in a lowly status are given some vulgar names, after all, those maids are born to be stepped on by others.
However, some rich girls have been served by maids since childhood and have also received some education. It is normal for them to not be able to bear such oppression.
But Xuan Yi actually wanted to do this in his heart. What Xu Chunhua did was exactly what he wanted. He was now the high and mighty prince, so how could he play with those women of lowly status again?
That's why Xuan Yi had never stopped it before. Also because of this, Xuan Yi gave Xu Chunhua a lot of face. He didn't say a word even when Xu Chunhua criticized him several times.
After all, Xu Chunhua was blamed for this incident.
And he just needs to pretend to be a good person in front of these women.
Say a nice word from time to time.
"The concubine knows."
Xu Chunhua didn't expect that even now, Xuan Jiuqing would still go against her.
Xuan Jiuqing didn't like her in his previous life, and he doesn't like her in this life either.
Now she finally lives a good life.
As a result, Xuan Jiuqing actually came to snatch her position as husband.
Unfortunately, she had no way to deal with Xuan Jiuqing.
If I had known this earlier, I would have asked Aunt Mei to kill Xuan Jiuqing.
After all, Lu Yuan is already very miserable now.
Lu Yuan is also something that makes people angry.
The woman who assassinated the emperor was brought in by Zhu Xing'er, and Lu Yuan actually protected Zhu Xing'er.
Then the Ning'an Palace gave Zhu Xing'er to the prince as a concubine.
No matter what Zhu Xing'er is, she is still the legitimate daughter of the Ning'an Palace!
She couldn't be bothered. Even if she had to be given contraceptive soup, it had to be the best kind.
And they may not even drink it!
As soon as Zhu Xing'er entered the mansion, Xuan Yi abandoned all the beauties she had found for him and favored Zhu Xing'er. She even had to pretend to be generous and rewarded Zhu Xing'er with a bracelet. Fortunately, the bracelet was hollow and a lot of red flowers were put inside.
The bracelet was worth a lot of money, and Xu Chunhua was reluctant to give it away, but she had no choice but to give it away.
And even if red flower was put in, there was still a possibility that Zhu Xing'er would get pregnant.
Fortunately, Xuan Yi did not favor her later.
Xuan Yi said that he had to give face to King Ning'an.
In this assassination attempt, Zhu Xing'er was also used, and the real mastermind behind the scenes was Xuan Jiuqing.
But the prince is dead.
Xuan Jiuqing is the only living prince.
His Majesty was still a little hesitant about his son and grandson.
In this matter, the emperor chose to protect Xuan Jiuqing, and Xuan Yi also told Xu Chunhua about this.
Xu Chunhua hated Xuan Jiuqing even more in her heart. Because the prince had always been very good to Xu Chunhua, and it was the princess who was not good to Xu Chunhua. Every time the prince saw Xu Chunhua, he was smiling, and Xu Chunhua liked the prince very much.
She was thinking, it would be great if her biological father was someone like the prince.
It’s a pity that the prince died. It would have been better if the princess died before him.
The annoying people just never die. Now the Golden Book of the East Palace is still in the hands of the former Crown Princess. She is just a Crown Princess in name only.
If she hadn't picked a few maids who were favored by Xuan Yi, she would have been bored every day, lying in the yard to take care of her pregnancy. She couldn't leave the yard, nor could she go to find Xuan Yi. She could only passively wait for Xuan Yi to come to her.
"Princess Consort, if you are bored, you can summon some opera troupes from outside to perform for you in the palace."
The nanny said to Xu Chunhua from the side.
She knew that Xu Chunhua had been going too far recently. She was the former Crown Princess's person, and the former Crown Princess wanted Xu Chunhua to stop making trouble, so at this time, she suggested that Xu Chunhua listen to an opera.
"Is this okay?"
"Of course you can. You are the Crown Princess, and the Crown Prince has issued an order. Your order is his order. You have been looking for a close friend for the Crown Prince these days, and the Crown Prince has always been thinking of you!"
"Then summon the most popular opera troupe in the capital."
Xu Chunhua was somewhat moved.
I heard that there was a very handsome young actor in the opera theater, she just looked at him, it didn't matter to her.
She must keep herself in a good mood, otherwise it will be bad for the child.
She gets angry whenever she thinks of Xuan Jiuqing, and she also gets angry when she thinks of those concubines and concubines in the palace. These people are people that Xu Chunhua cannot deal with.
So she had to think of something else.
············
In the servant's room.
The stinky pig is applying medicine to its hair.
"You! Don't do this again in the future. The Crown Prince has many concubines, and it may not be your turn! There is no need to ruin your beautiful face, and scrubbing the toilet is hard and tiring, and it smells bad."
The stinky pig persuaded Pig Hair.
Stinky Pig saw that Zhumao was depressed. She was worried that Zhumao would be upset for a while, so she took out a piece of bitten cake that she treasured and handed the unbitten side to Zhumao.
"Sister, I know you don't like this name, and I don't like my name either, but since we've come to this palace, we can only be called by this name for the rest of our lives. This cake was given to me by the Crown Princess after she took a bite of it.
This other half, which has never been touched, you can try it, it is delicious."
Pig Hair looked at the faint smile on Stinky Pig's face.
The stinky pig's eyes are very bright, shining like stars in the sky, and the dimples on his face are very sweet.
She opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but no words came out.
The stinky pig said to the pig hair: "Maybe you don't remember me, but I always remember that when we were fleeing from famine that year, our family passed by Taohua Town. When you were providing disaster relief, you gave me and my brother water and food. I always remember that.
Being alive is always better than being dead.
In this palace, as a maid, you can have enough meals, and every time His Highness favors you, he will reward you with some of his leftovers.
I know that what I did was very despicable, selling myself out for a bite of food.
But my brother and I came to the capital and knew nothing. If we didn't want to starve to death, we had to sell ourselves into slavery.
We have become slaves, and we have no control over what we want to do or what we can do.
I became a stinky pig, but my brother gained his freedom. He no longer had to be a slave. He could use the money to do some small business outside, and his life would get better.
I heard that we maids are not considered His Highness' women, but palace maids. Palace maids will be released from the palace when they reach the age of 30. Then we may be free.
If you really don't want to serve His Highness, I will help you. If you live well, you may be able to go home. Eat something. You will have nothing to eat when you go to clean the toilet. If the palace servants know that you have offended the Crown Princess and you are not favored by His Highness, they will definitely be mean to you and not give you food. "
