proud wife and concubine

"Come here, I'll tell you a secret, you're not allowed to tell anyone else." Li Yuerong beckoned to Xiao Xueqiong mysteriously, and the other party obediently put her ear to her immediately.

"General, he was injured while fighting abroad, so he can't behave humanly..." Li Yuerong said in a low voice.

"Ah!?" Xiao Xueqiong cried out in fright, then realized that she had lost her composure, and suddenly covered her mouth.

"So I don't live in the same room as the general. I'm afraid that outsiders will be suspicious. There are not many servants in the yard, and only a few confidantes are left to serve. This matter is also an unspeakable secret. I just want to tell you that you must not spread it." Li Yuerong He suppressed his smile and pretended to be solemn.

"This...what to do?" Xiao Xueqiong was in a state of confusion, shocked and worried, "Sister, you are still so young, don't you want...you don't have children yet?" , what will you do when you get old?"

"There is no way around this. Since I have worshiped the world with the general and made an oath of "supporting each other until the end of my life", no matter whether he is sick or healthy, I will always be with him." Li Yuerong acted and acted If you are interested, you will be moved.

"Sister..." Xiao Xueqiong looked at her bewilderedly.

Li Yuerong suddenly felt that something was wrong, and quickly turned around and said to Xiao Xueqiong: "The general's illness is not incurable, maybe it will be cured someday, if he does anything wrong to you, you must not indulge him , tell me immediately, do you hear me?"

"Well, I see." Xiao Xueqiong nodded emphatically.

Li Yuerong took her hand again, and looked up at the sky again: "Let's go, it's time for the general to come back."

"Where did Sister go?" Sitting in the hall were not only Zhao Xu, but also Li Ke.

"You didn't go back to the palace, why did you come here again?" Li Ke always ran towards the son-in-law's mansion. If he came to see her, Li Yuerong would naturally be happy, but she knew that her brother came for Zhao Xu, and thought of the infatuation Xu Cibing felt a little irritable.

"Why, I can't even come to my sister's house now?" Li Ke met Li Yuerong's cold eyebrows with a smiling face, threw the folding fan in his hand on the desk, sat down angrily, and turned his head away from Li Yuerong.

"Hey, you've grown up now, and you've got a big temper. You can set me on fire. You are a prince, so I can't control you. Go where you like." Li Yuerong also got angry and went straight to the Lord. sit down.

Xiao Xueqiong went in without knowing it, didn't sister Yuerong love her two younger brothers the most?The atmosphere was a bit awkward for a while, Xiao Xueqiong was new here, and she didn't dare to talk nonsense, she only secretly looked at other people's faces.When his eyes met Zhao Xu who also looked embarrassed, Zhao Xu laughed a few times, which was very disproportionate to his heroic appearance.

The son-in-law is tall and handsome, approachable and unassuming, no wonder sister Yuerong loves him so much, it's just God's will, poor sister Yuerong, poor son-in-law...Xiao Xueqiong feels sad.

"This is sister Xueqiong, please introduce me to the princess." Zhao Xu broke the silence.

Li Yuerong also knew that her temper was unreasonable, and she was afraid that she would scare Xiao Xueqiong, so she took advantage of the situation and let the three of them address each other.According to the rules, Xiao Xueqiong called Zhao Xu's son-in-law, Li Ke, His Highness King Qin, while Li and Zhao called her Xueqiong, firstly to show the kindness of her family, and secondly for convenience.

"By the way, Ci Bing just came here, and I have something to pass on to you." Li Yuerong took out the brocade box in his sleeve pocket and asked Xiao Xueqiong to pass it to Li Ke.

"what?"

"It's a sachet, Miss Xu's showed it herself." Xiao Xueqiong said.

"Is she quite caring?" Li Ke was very happy to hear that.

Opening the brocade box, there was indeed a sachet embroidered with gold thread. Li Ke carefully took it out and looked at the pattern for a long time.

"Are these two birds? Why do they both have one foot?"

"Bring it to me and have a look." Li Yuerong was also curious about what Xu Cibing could embroider in such a short time.

Xiao Xueqiong took the box, looked at the sachet inside, and handed it to Li Yuerong.

"What kind of bird? These are obviously two mandarin ducks. How can you ruin other people's wishes like this!" Li Yuerong is actually not sure what it is embroidered, but since it is two similar looking things stacked side by side, Li Ke I feel like a bird again, but of course it is a mandarin duck.

"Where did I ruin it? A mandarin duck is also a bird." Li Ke was not convinced.

"Princess..." Xiao Xueqiong hesitated.

"Ok?"

"The embroidery on the sachet seems to be Bingdilian."

Zhao Xu coughed, Li Ke took the brocade box as if nothing had happened, and Li Yuerong didn't mention it anymore.

There was something in Li Ke's house, so he didn't stay for dinner.Li Yuerong ordered his servants to hold a small banquet, firstly to welcome Xiao Xueqiong, secondly to cleanse Shen Qingmo.

It's a banquet, but the dishes are more than usual, there are no separate seats, and there are no singing and dancing, because there are only four people, "Master" Zhao Xu, "Madam" Li Yuerong, "Little Concubine" Xiao Xueqiong and the guest Shen Qingmo.

Shen Qingmo was delayed for some reason, and Xiao Xueqiong and the others took their seats first.

"I heard that concubines are not allowed to sit in a big family's house when they eat." Xiao Xueqiong quietly said to Li Yuerong who was beside her.

"Where did you hear this?" Li Yuerong and Zhao Xu toasted each other and drank it all.

"There are also a lot of people who have been married in the women's prison. I asked before I came. They said that the word "concubine" is the word "li" above the word "female", which means that the main wife will always step on the head of the concubine. The main wife can Sitting, my concubine will always stand." It was only half a day after entering the mansion, although Xiao Xueqiong was still a little cautious, but she felt that she hadn't felt so comfortable in more than ten years.It's always unbelievable that she just left the palace and was free, so that she talked a lot today, always wanting to say something to prove that this is not a dream, not a fantasy.

Li Yuerong looked at her with her chin on her cheek, thought for a while and said: "They have some truth in what they say, and many people are indeed like this. So no matter how much you like a man in the future, don't feel wronged to be his concubine."

I don't care about being a wife, and I don't dislike a concubine, as long as I can stay by your side, Xiao Xueqiong thought so in her heart, but she didn't dare to say it out of her mouth.

"But it's not all like that." Li Yuerong said instead.

"Huh?" Xiao Xueqiong was puzzled.

"The emperor's concubine is also a concubine, but they live a much more comfortable life. Maybe their son can still be an emperor."

Li Yuerong meant something, but Xiao Xueqiong thought of her poor mother.

"But my mother doesn't live comfortably, she is always bullied by Empress Xiao. However, Concubine An is also father...Emperor Xiao's concubine, yet she dares to go against Empress Xiao."

Li Yuerong was in a complicated mood when she heard the words, she just complained from her own standpoint, but ignored Xiao Xueqiong's feelings.

"Wives suffer from wives, and concubines have no grievances, but they are all poor people. Don't talk about this, it's really disappointing." Li Yuerong clapped her hands, and a maid came in outside the door.

"Send someone to see why Miss Shen is still not coming, and tell her that if she delays, she won't wait for her."

The maid got the order to go down, and when she turned around, she saw a figure who looked like a celestial maiden coming in.

"Senior sister, you are really ruthless, you have no more patience with me."

Those who haven't seen him heard his voice first, and those who saw him almost lost their souls.

Xiao Xueqiong was so shocked that her eyeballs almost fell off, who is this beauty?The voice is indeed that voice, and the title is also that title, why is it... like a different head?

"I've always been impatient. Didn't you already know that?" Li Yuerong said while ordering people to pass the dishes.

Shen Qingmo walked to the table and sat down, Xiao Xueqiong only felt a gust of fragrant wind blowing, and she felt a little dizzy.Looking closely at Shen Qingmo's attire, a large piece of white snow was exposed in front of the neck, and the half-wrapped and round shape was ready to be seen. The willow slender waist was tightly tied, and with a firm grip, no one would compare this person in front of him with the daylight. Beggar-like ugly girls.

The clothes were worn by others, but Xiao Xueqiong felt inexplicably ashamed, her cheeks were a little hot, and she hurriedly went to drink the mung bean soup in her bowl.

"I haven't seen you for a few years, junior sister, you are still so coquettish." Li Yuerong glanced at Shen Qingmo, and said with the corner of her mouth hooked.

Zhao Xu was choked up, lowered his head and savagely planed his rice, just wanting to finish his meal quickly and leave the table.

"Senior Sister Miao Zan, you have been prudish for more than ten years." Shen Qingmo raised her pinky finger, stroking the strands of hair hanging on her chest.

Li Yuerong snorted softly and ignored her, and began to serve Xiao Xueqiong with food.

Xiao Xueqiong didn't care about the food, she stared at Shen Qingmo closely, not because of the good looks of the other, but because this woman's peach blossom eyes were glued to Zhao Xu's body, with a smile on the corner of her mouth, her jade fingers stroking her pink lips, she was extremely frivolous.

It was so rude, Xiao Xueqiong was angry in her heart, the more she looked at it, the more she felt that Shen Qingmo was not pleasing to the eye, such a wide chair did not sit well, her body was bent like a twisted candy, and she looked at Sister Yuerong who was always graceful and dignified , It's a judgment call!

However, Li Yuerong turned a blind eye, which made it hard for Xiao Xueqiong to accept. Could it be that sister Yuerong's relationship with this woman is so deep that she doesn't even have a problem with her husband being coveted?

"My concubine is traveling around the border, and I have heard of General Zhao's reputation for a long time." Shen Qingmo didn't seem to intend to let go of Zhao Xu, who was trying to reduce his sense of presence.

"Miss Shen has won the award." Zhao Xu said.

"The general and senior sister usually call me junior sister, but if you call me girl girl, isn't it a stranger?"

Are you an outsider?Otherwise, Sister Yuerong will let you live in the guest room?What a big heart!Xiao Xueqiong bit the ribs viciously, then covered her mouth in pain.

"What's wrong?" Li Yuerong hurriedly put down her chopsticks and looked at her.

"You must have bitten your tongue. Hurry up and lick it on the upper jaw." Zhao Xu, who often gobbled and even bit his tongue, quickly passed on his experience.

"No... I bit my cheek." Holding back tears, Xiao Xueqiong picked up the chopsticks to pick up vegetables again, signaling that she was fine.
