Scarlet Fang of the Pearl

Chapter 71 'The Ugly' Makes Mischief

The competition in the afternoon is over, and there is still a long time before the reception dinner in the evening.Nasaiah really fell in love with Fu Erkang. After hearing the Tibetan chieftain's request, Qianlong didn't say no, he just said, "This Fu Erkang is not a nobleman of the Eight Banners, but a slave of my son, Bale Ben. Do you want Princess Saiyan to think about it again?" Vulkang's status is too low to be on the table, and such a marriage is not enough, Qianlong said it now to avoid hurting the face of the Celestial Dynasty in the future.

Ba Leben laughed and said indifferently: "No problem, no problem, as long as you have good skills, and Saiya likes it." Saiya is a Tibetan princess who can marry multiple husbands, even if Vulkan's status is not enough, she will marry later That's it, Ba Leben dotes on this daughter very much, so naturally he is reluctant to go against her wishes.Besides, Vulkan's appearance is really good, even if his status is lower.Qianlong didn't say anything anymore and only agreed that if he gave him a marriage, he would raise the flag for Na Fuerkang and save face for Tibet.

In the spare time in the afternoon, Qianlong assigned the fifth elder brother Falconforte and the others to accompany Saiyan. The three of them were very proud of being ordered by the emperor, thinking that the emperor would finally promote them again and give them errands.He hadn't left the palace yet, and his arrogance reappeared. He was very proud when others congratulated him. He didn't see the mocking and sympathetic look in Fulkan's eyes.

Thinking about the bright future, Vulkang could not wait to go to Shufangzhai to talk to Ziwei.But they didn't notice Forte's gloomy expression among the congratulatory group.This opportunity was promised to be his, but now it was snatched away by his good brother, and he only said dryly sorry when he came back, how could he be convinced?It's just that it's not easy to get angry in front of the fifth elder brother, and doesn't talk much all the time. Seeing this, Yong Qi patted Forte on the shoulder, promising to let him behave next time, and let him not be anxious. After all, Erkang still has Ziwei to take care of. with.In this way, no matter how unhappy Forte is, he can only pretend it's nothing, and the emperor also ordered him to accompany Princess Saiyan, and he hopes to take this opportunity to compete.

But Ziwei didn't go back to Shufangzhai with Little Yanzi after they parted, because Lingfei said that there were some good fabrics and powders for them to let Ziwei and her go back to Yanxi Palace to get them.Little Swallow smiled and thanked Concubine Ling. She thought that Concubine Ling was pregnant and she liked them a little more. She agreed to Ziwei's going to Yanxi Palace without even thinking about it. In her opinion, Yanxi The palace is a safe place just like Shufangzhai.

Little Yanzi was right to think so. Concubine Ling would not resort to corporal punishment to destroy the image of her painstaking efforts, especially when this pawn was still useful.She was indeed caring about Little Swallow and Ziwei's life in the palace like an elder, and of course she did not forget to highlight her helplessness for their being grounded.It’s just that Ziwei still smiled and came back with a sad face. She was still thinking about what Concubine Ling had just talked to her, “Erkang has been sent by the emperor to accompany Princess Saiyan. Stop him...then what should I do? I can't recognize my father...will I be a maid for the rest of my life? Don't want her!" Ziwei suddenly thought of Ling Fei patted her hand and said to her with a gentle smile, "We are destined , I heard that you were successful in rescuing your family, and the emperor appreciates your talent and learning. If you don't dislike it, let's be sisters." Lingfei said cryptically, Ziwei, who is not a little girl, can't understand this meaning, but faintly felt bad and shivered.Later, Concubine Ling said that it would be a waste of Ziwei's talents to be a court lady next to Xiaoyanzi, if she agreed, she would be asked to come to Yanxi Palace, Ziwei didn't think much about it, she was a sister and she had to take care of her and refused. Yes, Concubine Ling smiled slightly and asked her to go back to Shufangzhai without saying anything.It's just that she herself didn't know how she had broken through several traps by accident during this trip to Yanxi Palace, and how Concubine Ling sneered after she left.

Ziwei went back to Shufangzhai with mixed feelings. As soon as Xiao Yanzi saw the silk and satin she brought back, she hugged her back to her room happily, and kept telling her how kind the concubine Ling is.Jinsuo saw that Ziwei was in a bad mood, so he sent Little Swallow to serve her miss.Ziwei never hides Jin Suo's concerns, and sometimes tells Jin Suo what she can't understand with Little Swallow, after all, Little Swallow is not even as good as Jin Suo in terms of education.

Ziwei told Jin Suo all that Ling Fei had said without concealing it. After all, Jin Suo was born as a maid, and she understood some things that a lady like Ziwei didn't know.She was shocked when she heard Lingfei's words, and hurriedly closed the door and pulled Ziwei to say: "Miss, miss, you must never go to Yanxi Palace again."

"What's the matter? Although I don't like to hear what the concubine Ling said, she has always helped us. How can we be ungrateful?!" Ziwei was a little displeased, but this was the Jinsuo who had been following her all this time. Don't take harsh words to teach her.

Jin Suo shook his head, "Miss, Madam is hiding some things from you, but we maidservants understand. The words that Lingfei empress told you are clearly a means of using you to invite favors. Miss, you must not agree. The wives of rich families often have these methods. When they are pregnant or sick and cannot be favored, they will choose some good-looking and sincere maids to serve the male masters of the family, and there are many such in the palace. Even if the servants in my own palace are pregnant, they can bring them over to raise them, but if the emperor doesn’t reward them after pampering them, then they will still be slaves, and the maids have the final say on life and death!”

Ziwei's face became paler and paler when she heard this, and she recalled Ling Fei's expression when she said these words to her, she bit her lips and couldn't speak, and then stammered after a long while: "This... is this possible? My age But it's as old as her daughter, and the emperor is my father, how can I!"

"Miss, don't you look at it. Are there still few young concubines in this palace? To be a young master of the Xianfu Palace I saw, she was only 16 years old and younger than you! Besides, the emperor is now rejuvenated, in his 20s. I'm afraid that there will be more people willing to enter the palace next year's draft! It's not Jin Suo who wants to blame Ling Fei and Empress, but Jin Suo is also for you, Miss. The emperor is your father. Only a few of us know that Ling Fei and Empress Do not I know, and the emperor doesn't know either. The concubine Ling must have heard that you have made more contributions this time, miss, and the emperor looked at you differently, thinking that the emperor treats you... Besides, the concubine Ling is old and pregnant with a child, I heard that the emperor hasn't been to the Yanxi Palace for quite a while. I'm afraid that's why the concubine concubine came up with this idea. This is a happy event if the general master favors you, so the concubine concubine doesn't necessarily want to harm you, it's just for us Saying this is not a good thing!" Jin Suo knew that his young lady always only thought of people's good, and Lingfei was usually nice to them, if she didn't say that, she might not listen to it, but now she should take it to heart.

Ziwei's complexion changed drastically and she held Jinsuo's hand, at a loss, "Then what should I do? I'm just a little maid in the palace, and I can't protect myself at all. Looking for Fifth Brother?... No, he is a Brother, I can't control the affairs of the harem. The only thing we can rely on in this palace is the concubine Ling, and Huang Ama doesn't know that I am his daughter, what if... what should I do?"

Although it was said that Concubine Ling was the idea, both Concubine Ling and Ziwei obviously ignored Qianlong's meaning, or misunderstood Qianlong's meaning.Not to mention that Qianlong felt that Ziwei had ulterior motives at all, how could he have a crush on her when he had a little bun by his side?There are many talented women in the palace, and there are more beauties. Although Ziwei has a better color, it is obvious that people in this era are already old and old girls. Look at those who entered the palace for draft, which one is not younger than her?And after all, Ziwei is the person next to Little Swallow, and she is also Swallow's sister, no matter how lustful Qianlong is, he wouldn't accept the maid who served his daughter closely, otherwise the sisters would become foreheads, Qianlong's unattractive and low-spirited ministers They also talk.

If Xiao Baozi knew about Ziwei's unnecessary worries at this moment, he would probably just sneer, 'Ugly people make more trouble! 'Although Ziwei is not an ugly person, this matter obviously made the concubine, Ziwei, and Jinsuo wishful thinking.

In the evening, Fu Erkang and the others returned home, but Fu Lun hadn't come back yet, so Fujin hurriedly asked them how they were with Sai Ya.Vulkan answered very dissatisfied, but he was stunned when he heard Furren's angry voice outside, "You're still happy! Why don't you discuss this kind of thing with me, it's okay now, son You are happy to marry and kiss!"

"What kind of marriage? What kind of son is going to marry?" Fujin didn't hear right and hurriedly grabbed Fu Lun and asked.Falconforte also didn't know why, "Ama? Isn't it good that we finished our errands?"

"Errands? Serious errands are fine. You don't even think about it. This noble man has a higher status than you, and his martial arts are much better. You are now the servants of the fifth elder brother. Why should you accompany the princess to visit the capital?" ? This Princess Saiyan came to Daqing to pick a son-in-law!"

"Choose a son-in-law? That's even better? Does this mean that the princess has taken a fancy to our Erkang?"

"What's so good! This son-in-law is going back to Tibet with them. Women in Tibet have a higher status than men. A Tibetan princess with such a high status can marry several son-in-laws! What are you doing? They don't even have time to hide It’s too late to say anything now, just before I came back, I heard the emperor said that he would marry you, and it’s likely to be Princess Saiyan!” Fu Lun stared bitterly. I glanced at Fujin, and then at Ertai. I'm afraid our family will have to look at Ertai in the future... Erkang... hey...

"How? How could this be?! I don't like Saiyan! No, I want to enter the palace, I want to talk to the emperor, Ziwei, Ziwei is still waiting for me!" Fu Erkang ran out of the house in a gust of wind , Fulun stood up and made people chase him, "Ertai! Chase him quickly, don't let him enter the palace!" Seeing Ertai running away, Fulun sat down in a daze, muttering , "I hope it's not too late..."
