Chapter 25: The ninth princess was killed, how could he not be anxious?

The main hall of the Sculpture Gallery is resplendent with gold and gold, and the gilt beast is filled with ambergris. The tiny bits of sunlight streaming in through the hollow pear blossom windows fall on the bed curtains with golden embroidered phoenixes on the couch.

When the eldest princess woke up from her nap, the maid who served her from her nap quickly served her fragrant tea. The eldest princess took it and took a sip. She opened her eyes and saw Grandma Ju walking in. The eldest princess asked, "Have you heard? What happened to the ninth princess?" "

Grandma Ju replied: "I figured it out. It's not poisoning, but eating peanuts by mistake."

The eldest princess put down the tea cup and asked: "The child has always been allergic to peanuts, how could he eat it by mistake so easily?"

Aunt Ju said: "I heard it seems to be related to the Eighth Princess, and the inner court is still investigating."

 Hearing that it was related to the eighth princess, the eldest princess was a little worried. Although they are all her nieces, these nine princesses are the children of the second aunt of the Zhenguo Palace, so they are different in terms of love.

Aunt Ju saw the worry of the eldest princess and couldn't help but said: "The eighth princess is the daughter of the beloved concubine Meng Guifei. She is arrogant and arrogant. If Qingluan has an affair with such a person, life in the palace will naturally be difficult. ”

The eldest princess picked up the tea cup, put it to her mouth and blew on it, but did not drink it. She put it back again. She frowned slightly, her phoenix eyes moved slightly, and said to herself: "I'm afraid this matter will not happen." So simple.”

After hearing what the eldest princess said, Grandma Ju pondered for a moment and asked tentatively: "Princess, I think this matter is the work of the person from Jiaofang Palace."

The eldest princess was silent for a long time and then asked, "Didn't Boyo come back in the past two days?"

Aunt Ju shook her head and replied: "Ever since the Ninth Princess got into trouble, the Crown Prince rushed back in a hurry and hasn't come back for the past two days."

The eldest princess asked again: "Is the ninth princess okay?"

Aunt Ju replied: "Fortunately, the princess didn't eat much. I heard she's fine now."

Seeing that the eldest princess stopped talking, Aunt Ju sighed and said, "Hey! The ninth princess is also pitiful. Without her biological mother to protect her, she will inevitably suffer in every aspect in the palace."

After hearing what Grandma Ju said, the eldest princess sighed: "So what if my biological mother is here? If Ah Xian is still here, maybe I can compete with the Meng family. What weight does Ah Tian have?"

A Xian in the eldest princess's mouth is the eldest aunt of Zhenguo Palace, that is, Li Ling's eldest aunt, and A Tian is Li Ling's younger aunt.

There were two aunts in the previous generation of the Duke of Zhenguo's palace. The eldest aunt was born with beautiful appearance, capable and intelligent, and she fell in love with the eldest princess, her sister-in-law. Therefore, the eldest princess often took her in and out of the palace. Those who came and went were often attracted by the prince who was still the prince at the time. Emperor Ming fell in love and asked the late emperor to appoint the eldest daughter of the Li family as the crown princess.

 After marriage, the eldest daughter of the Li family and the prince were also loving and harmonious. But later, when the prince ascended the throne and the harem gradually became full, the Meng family, who was born as a dancer, won the favor of Emperor Ming and was accepted into the harem, where she received great favor.

 It turns out that this Meng family was ambitious, and she flirted with the emperor and rose to the rank of concubine. Later, relying on Emperor Ming's favor, she even ignored the eldest daughter of the Li family who was the queen.

 The two clashed frequently.

They were both the favorites of Emperor Ming, so he had a good time between the two of them, protecting his concubine overtly and covertly.

Empress Li felt depressed about this, and the eldest son she gave birth to was also born with deficiencies and died when he was less than one year old.

 Her husband betrayed her and her young son died, leaving the Li family in a state of despair.

In order to help him maintain his favor, the Li family sent the second girl to the palace.

With her sister by her side, Empress Li gradually cheered up and became pregnant again.

Although the Meng family was devoted to her, the two sisters helped and supported her, and her life in the palace was not bad. But later, my sister offended Emperor Ming for some reason, and the emperor was so angry that he was thrown into the cold palace.

Empress Li was so exhausted mentally and physically because of this that the baby in her belly was dead after birth. She also gave up completely. Before she died, she only asked Emperor Ming to forgive her sister for the sake of the two young couples.

  Emperor Ming, feeling guilty about his wife, finally forgave the second girl of the Li family and restored her status. A few years later, the second girl of the Li family gave birth to a daughter for Emperor Ming, the ninth princess Qingluan. However, she herself was depressed for many years and injured her body during childbirth, so she died before she was born.

The eldest princess had a deep love for her late aunt and sister-in-law of the Li family. Whenever she mentioned these things, she always felt sad.

Seeing that she was feeling sad again, Grandma Ju quickly comforted her and said: "How many women who marry the emperor can die a good death? Princess, don't think about these things anymore. Fortunately, the children are all doing well, so the princess should be relieved."

Speaking of the child, the eldest princess said, "Bojo must have had a hard time these past two days."

Aunt Ju replied: "Seeing the Ninth Princess being framed, the prince may be so worried." "It's really hard for Bo Yue." The eldest princess paused and asked, "How is Shu'er? Yesterday I heard from Jin'er She said she is not feeling well, have you ordered the imperial doctor to see her?"

Grandma Ju replied: "I took the imperial doctor over yesterday. The second lady said it was nothing serious, but I caught a little cold on the boat."

Just as he was talking, the maid came in from outside and reported, "Princess, the Crown Prince's wife and the third young lady are outside asking for an audience."

The eldest princess smiled and said, "Please invite them in quickly."

The maid agreed and retreated.

Grandma Ju smiled and said, "We haven't seen each other for just one day yesterday, and the princess already misses the children."

The eldest princess said: "I don't even notice them if I don't see them on weekdays. Nowadays, they are in front of me every day, and I am thinking about them."

Aunt Ju said: "The second lady is considerate and meticulous, and has a good temper. No wonder the princess likes her."

"The princess is so lucky to have such a good daughter-in-law."

The eldest princess gave her an angry look and said, "Boyue is blessed, so don't make a mistake, mama."

The master and the servant were chatting here, when Jingshu and the third girl were led in by the maid, and they greeted the eldest princess respectfully.

The eldest princess was happy in her heart, but she said strangely: "It's hot today. If you don't stay in the house to escape the heat, why do you come all the way?"

The third girl approached the eldest princess and said mysteriously: "Mother, what do you think the second sister-in-law has brought for you?"

“Oh?” The eldest princess looked at her daughter and then at Jing Shu in confusion.

Jingshu opened the basket of bamboo snacks she was carrying, brought it to the eldest princess, and said with a smile: "It's not a rare thing, it's a few snacks I made myself. I'm clumsy and made rough. I don't know yet. Can it enter the mother's mouth?"

Without waiting for the eldest princess to reply, the third girl couldn't wait to pick up a piece from the basket, brought it to the eldest princess's mouth, and said, "The snacks made by the second sister-in-law are delicious. Mother, please try it."

 The eldest princess took a bite. It was sweet, soft and glutinous and melted in the mouth. Even though she was used to eating delicacies from the mountains and seas, she had to sincerely admire her daughter-in-law's craftsmanship. She asked: "What is this made of? How can it have such a delicate taste."

Jingshu replied: "This is made from finely ground red beans and lotus seeds, then honey and lily pine nuts."

The third girl smiled and said, "What does mother think of the taste?"

The eldest princess took the chopsticks from her daughter's hand, took another bite of the snack between her hands, and praised: "The taste is good, not bad!"

After hearing what her mother said, the third girl said as if she had a close friend: "I also think the dim sum made by the second sister-in-law is more delicious than the ones made in the royal kitchen in the palace." After that, she looked at the eldest princess and asked: "Mother, guess Guess how much I ate at Second Sister-in-law’s place today?”

The eldest princess looked at her daughter with a smile and said, "How could mother guess this?"

Grandma Ju on the side smiled and said jokingly: "I'm afraid what the second lady cooks is not enough to feed the third lady."

The third girl smiled sheepishly: "That's not true. The second sister-in-law made a lot of food for me, but that's it! I didn't even have to eat at lunch. I only had snacks at the second sister-in-law's place."

The eldest princess took her daughter in her arms and said angrily: "Why are you so old and still so greedy?"

Seeing that the eldest princess and the children were happy together, Aunt Ju said calmly: "It's hot today, why don't I order them to have a banquet on the porch in the evening, and let the second lady and the third lady have dinner here in the evening."

The third girl clapped her hands and said, "I like eating mother's Bazhen pigeon the most. I want to eat this tonight."

The eldest princess naturally had no reason to disagree. She smiled and said to Aunt Ju, "Let them prepare to go."

Grandma Ju agreed and was about to go out when the maid came from outside and said, "Your Highness, Mr. Liang, who is beside the Crown Prince, is waiting outside. He said that he was ordered by the Crown Prince to come to take the second lady back."

Princess: Look at my son. He hasn’t seen his wife for only two days and he already thinks about it.

Third girl: The second brother is annoying, and he comes to steal people from me again!

Jing Shu: Li Ling! Just wait for me and see how I deal with you when I get back!
