Chapter 238 Come to Apologize
Ever since Concubine Li Shufei was rejected by Xie Run when she tried to seek justice for the princess, she has never liked to talk to Xie Run.
I guess he just doesn't like Xie Run.
However, she was of low rank, so even though she disliked him, she had to respect Xie Run.
Xie Run smiled and said nothing.
Songfengyuan——
Concubine Sun is a steady person, but the maidservants around her can't help but speak up for her.
As soon as he returned to the courtyard, he couldn't help but say, "Miss, the concubines in this mansion are too arrogant. Each one wants to step on you!"
"Why didn't you tell Concubine Jiang about her pregnancy earlier or later, but at your inauguration banquet? It's clear she's trying to steal your limelight!"
"You complained of a stomachache at night and dragged the prince away from your yard... This was a deliberate slap in your face!"
"If that were the case, it would be fine, but who knew that a concubine named Hua would appear out of nowhere and intercept us!"
As the maid spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. "When I was home, Madam said that Prince Jing's Mansion had more rules than the other palaces. My girl came from a good family, and as long as she behaved herself, her future would be comfortable. But now that she's entered the palace, two concubines are already stepping on her. Who will respect you in the future? What kind of rules are these?"
Concubine Sun originally listened expressionlessly, until the maid's words became more and more outrageous, she finally spoke up to stop her!
"Taoyao! You're getting more and more outrageous!"
Tao Yao immediately shut up, lowered her head and wiped her tears, "This servant really feels sorry for you, young lady."
Being pampered by everyone at home, who would dare to say something disrespectful?
Who knew that as soon as he entered the palace, he was bullied by people stepping on his head one by one!
"The princess is so kind. As soon as we entered the palace, she let Concubine Xie and I take charge of the household affairs. The other sisters are also kind and friendly. We are very easy to get along with. How can there be no rules?"
Concubine Sun raised her hand to wipe Tao Yao's tears and gently taught her: "Don't talk about the palace like this anymore!"
"With the Princess in charge of Prince Jing's mansion, even if there are a few villains who are scheming and playing tricks, they are just petty matters of jealousy. After all, it is a prince's mansion, with so many people, how can there not be conflicts? Our mansion is not always peaceful."
"The other two palaces, the Prince of Wei's Palace is run by a concubine, with countless concubines and concubines under her. The Princess of An's Palace is despised and lives like a widow, unable to control her subordinates. The concubines are in power, and the concubines are favored... These two palaces are truly devoid of any rules."
Whether it is good or not can be determined by comparison.
The Sun family wants to invest in the fight for the throne, so Concubine Sun must marry one of the three princes.
Prince Jing respected the princess. As long as the princess remained in power, there would be someone above Prince Jing's mansion to suppress her, and life in the mansion would not be difficult.
On the other hand, in the other two mansions, without the suppression from high-ranking officials, concubines and commoners can all fight for power, and no one will submit to anyone else. This is the sign of a chaotic family!
Tao Yao wiped her tears and said softly, "I understand. But I feel really sorry for my master..."
Concubine Sun smiled gently and said, "Why are you wronged? I don't feel wronged at all."
"Looking at the current situation, Concubine Jiang and Concubine Hua are both vying for favor."
"Yesterday's incident seemed like Concubine Jiang slapped me in the face, but if you look closely, it was Concubine Hua who intercepted her, and that's when she was truly slapped in the face."
"Based on Concubine Jiang's personality, she must have already come to hate Concubine Hua. There will be some trouble between these two in the future."
Before entering the palace, Concubine Sun did her homework and knew the personality of everyone in Prince Jing's palace.
Jiang Baobao is the kind of person who can make a big splash even without any warning. Now that someone has snatched away his money, how can he bear the humiliation?
Could Hua Shufei, a person as chubby as a bun, withstand Jiang Shufei's violent roar?!
Concubine Sun chuckled and said, "It's not so easy to fight for this favor."
"The prince is also a man of rules. Since he left Concubine Jiang's courtyard yesterday, it shows that he will not condone the unhealthy practice of using children to compete for favors in the backyard. I don't know why he went to Qiufeng Courtyard to favor Concubine Hua."
"Now that the prince and princess know I've been wronged, they will definitely compensate me in the future... If I had served the prince from the beginning, I'm afraid I wouldn't have felt this guilty."
Concubine Sun lowered her eyes and said softly, "Mother once said that sometimes a man's guilt is more useful than his love."
Tao Yao was persuaded, but she still felt sorry for her master. Just as she was about to say a few words to cheer her master up, she heard someone from below come to report.
"Master, Concubine Hua from Qiufeng Courtyard sent a maid to deliver something."
Concubine Sun's calm eyes showed a hint of surprise, "Concubine Hua sent someone to deliver something to me?"
Tao Yao's eyes narrowed, "Miss, could it be that Concubine Hua is showing off in front of you?"
Concubine Sun glanced at her and said, "When the enemy comes, we will stop him with our troops, and when the water comes, we will block it with earth. What's there to be afraid of?"
I just feel puzzled.
Judging from Concubine Hua's personality, she doesn't seem like the kind of person who likes to show off.
Probably only Concubine Jiang in the palace could do such a thing as showing off in the palace.
Concubine Sun: "Bring the tea first, I'll be there right away."
Tao Yao was puzzled and said, "Master, she is just a maid. It just so happens that Concubine Hua has damaged your reputation. It would be better to let her wait a little longer so that people will know that you are not a face-saving person either."
Concubine Sun glanced at Tao Yao and said, "Tao Yao, we are in the prince's palace now, not in our house."
"When you follow me in the future, the first thing you need to do is to clearly understand our position in the mansion and not lose your composure."
Having said that, Taoyao didn't dare to be presumptuous anymore.
When Concubine Sun arrived at the main courtyard, she saw Hua Yu's personal maid Zhiqiu, who was holding a box in her hand.
Zhiqiu said respectfully, "I am Zhiqiu, your servant, and I greet Concubine Sun."
Concubine Sun smiled and said, "Miss Zhiqiu, you are so polite. I wonder what Concubine Hua wants you to do?"
Zhiqiu lowered her head and whispered, "My master is here to apologize. Last night was a good night for Concubine Sun. The prince got drunk in the middle of the night and went to rest in the Qiufeng Courtyard... My master felt guilty and specially asked me to bring a gift to apologize to Concubine Sun."
"The box contains a fine bamboo fan. Sichuan only sent three of these as tribute this year. The master received one and gave it to Concubine Sun."
Because the maid spoke so sincerely and humbly, for a moment, Concubine Sun really couldn't tell whether Hua Yu was asking someone to apologize or to mock and show off.
Concubine Sun's wet nurse, Madam Du, was furious when she heard this. "Apologize? Is Concubine Hua deliberately trying to humiliate my young lady?"
"The prince is willing to stay in Concubine Hua's courtyard. That was the prince's idea. What did Master Hua do wrong? Concubine Hua came to apologize specially. Does she think the prince did something wrong?"
Zhiqiu subconsciously said, "How could it be?! Of course the prince is right!"
"Since the prince is not at fault, why does your master have to act so hypocritically?"
