Yixiu's Rebirth: Sending Bai Lianhua's Sister to Become a Concubine

After everyone sat down, Su He said, "I heard that the prince's favorite little prince is called Hongchang. He is two years old now. Is his mother here too?"

Yinzhen's heart skipped a beat, but Suhe was still glancing at the women opposite him without any hesitation.

Yinzhen said, "It's an unfortunate thing for the leader to ask. His mother is kind and has gone out to pray for the blessing of our Qing Dynasty. Come on, let's sing and dance."

Yinzhen didn't give Suhe another chance to speak.

This Su He is the leader of the Borjigit clan. Although he intends to win him over, he cannot lose his status in front of everyone.

An hour later, the banquet was over and Wujina sent Su He out of the house alone.

"Father, what's wrong with you today? I'm not saying anything bad, but you've gone too far. No matter how good-tempered Prince Beile is, he's still a proper prince. People say that family members are polite, but why are you so unreserved, Father?"

These days, Yinzhen treated Wujina well, and she liked Yinzhen even more, so her words naturally tended to favor Yinzhen.

Su He said, "Our Borjigit daughter died a year after coming to the capital. How can I rest assured? If I give him another warning, what if something happens to you, what will Father do?"

"Then father, you should also be more careful. You say that the food in the capital is unpalatable, but even though it's unpalatable, you don't eat less..." Wujina continued.

"You know, I hate all their red tape. It makes me uncomfortable, and there are those stinky eunuchs."

"Well, I don't like the etiquette here either. It's okay if Ama feels a little uncomfortable once." Wujina didn't think much of it. It wasn't a big deal after all.

Ama is also a powerful person on the grassland, and Yinzhen is just a beile now.

It's a rare opportunity to come to Beijing, so if Ama wants to show off his power, he might as well do so and let the women in the backyard see it.

Although I am just a princess now, I am different from them after all.

------

After the banquet, Yinzhen also took Su Peisheng to the study.

Yinzhen had a sullen face and remained silent.

Su Peisheng said cautiously: "I didn't expect that the leader of the Borjigit clan would be uncomfortable with the capital."

"He is not used to the capital, but he is familiar with my mansion." Yinzhen snorted coldly and said, "He knows which of my sons is valued by the emperor, and he also knows who is favored in this mansion."

Su Peisheng knew that Yinzhen was blaming Wujina for being too talkative. Even if it was not a big deal, the royal family was very sensitive about privacy. Moreover, under the iceberg, there was the dangerous powder keg of Hongchang and Rouze.

However, words are words and actions are actions.

At night, Yinzhen appeared in Wujina's Hengwuyuan as usual.

"Father is a rough man. He was disrespectful in front of Lord Beile. I will apologize to Lord Beile on behalf of Father."

As soon as Yinzhen came in, Wujina knelt down and apologized.

"Get up." Yinzhen sat in the main seat, looked at Wujina and said, "Your father hasn't been to Beijing for a long time and is not familiar with the etiquette and rituals. How can I blame him?"

Wujina stood up and leaned softly on Yinzhen. The man next to her was now in his twenties, clearly at the age of being well-dressed and full of vigor and vitality.

But more often than not, he always showed a thoughtfulness that was inconsistent with his age.

For example, although Wujina did not think today's incident was a big deal, she did not expect Yinzhen to just let it go without mentioning it.

He really likes himself.

Wujina was feeling very proud and once again distanced herself from the other women in the backyard.

The next morning, after Yinzhen left, Su Peisheng returned, holding a mahogany box with gold threads, and ran back, saying, "The prince asked me to look for this treasure in the ice cellar early in the morning, and as soon as I found it, I ran to show it to the princess."

Su Peisheng held the box in his pocket personally. When he opened it, it was still cold and contained a scarlet lychee.

Looking at Wujina with a puzzled expression.

Su Peisheng said, "This thing is called Feizixiao, it grows south of the Huai River, and was given to the princes by our Emperor Kangxi. The Prince's Mansion only got two, and Prince was worried about the princess, so he ordered people to freeze them in the ice cellar. Now that you and Prince have reconciled, Prince quickly ordered the servants to open it."

Wujina touched the red shell and said, "It feels hard. Since there are two shells as a reward, who did you give the other one to?"

"Oh, there is no extra reward." Su Peisheng said with a smile: "The first one was eaten by the prince himself on the spot. You are the only one in the backyard."

"Puchi." Wujina smiled happily and asked, "Then why is this thing called Concubine Smile?"

Su Peisheng explained: "This concubine's smile has an allusion. In the previous dynasty, there was a concubine named Yang who was deeply favored by the Emperor Ming and was the most beautiful in the harem. This concubine loved to eat lychees. In order to make the beauty smile, the Emperor Ming ordered people to ride horses from Lingnan all the way to Chang'an, and it became a good story at the time."

"At that time, the great poet Du Mu wrote 'A horse gallops away, and the concubine smiles. No one knows that it is the lychees coming.'"

The more Wujina listened, the happier she became. Doesn't this mean that in Prince Beile's heart, she is the same as Concubine Yang, who outshines all the other concubines in the harem?
