The Self-cultivation of a Salted Fish Concubine

Chapter 156 Miss Hua

Fang Yuaner said with a forced smile: "I just hope you can always be happy."

Fang Yuan'er actually couldn't tell for a moment whether Xie Run's love for King Jing was really that great, or he was just pretending.

But none of this matters.

King Jing is back, and it's time for her to be promoted.

Xie Run also guessed it.

When Xie Run saw the girl brought back by King Jing, he finally recognized her identity.

In the original script, in a year or two, there will be a border conflict between the Xia Dynasty and the Dayu Dynasty, and a young general will emerge.

This young general had a rough family background and was bullied by local tyrants in Yunzhou and almost lost his life.

After escaping death, he started a life counterattack script and became famous in one battle. Thereafter, he fought against the Xia Dynasty and won many battles, with remarkable military achievements.

Finally, he became a first-rank general of the Dayu Dynasty and guarded the border of the Dayu Dynasty for more than 40 years.

He was also one of the few military officers who held military power and enjoyed his old age after King Jing ascended the throne.

The girl that King Jing brought this time was the younger general's younger sister.

Xie Run said that if she was just the daughter of his savior, King Jing would never treat her so exceptionally.

I'm afraid that this woman's entry into the palace was not possible without Fang Yuaner's instigation.

It is unknown whether he will become a strong rival of Xie Run or Fang Yuaner by then.

After returning to the palace, Xie Run took Dan Tao back to his own Chunshan Courtyard.

Xiao Shu came back panting.

"Master, I have found out the identity of that girl."

Xie Run was very leisurely and calm. "Sit down and have some tea first, and then talk slowly."

Xiao Shu was so worried about Xie Run that she couldn't even drink a drop of tea.

Xiao Shu: "She said her surname is Hua, and her full name is Hua Yu. Both her parents are dead, and she only has one brother left. He is currently serving in the military camp."

Dan Tao asked curiously, "Did her father die trying to save the prince?"

"That's what I said." Xiao Shu lowered her voice and said, "But it seems that the bandits were not to be feared at the time. It was her father who killed the prisoners in the battlefield to win credit, which led to the bandits rioting and the prince falling into a trap. That's why he saved her life."

Xie Run was also stunned. He didn't know that there was a story behind the so-called life-saving grace.

Dan Tao: "In that case, this favor is not that great. If you really think about it, it's even a sin."

"The prince promised her the position of concubine? Could it be that he is quite fond of her?"

Xie Run reminded him, "The prince only said that Miss Hua would be placed in the same position as a concubine, but her position has not yet been determined."

Xiao Shu's heart tightened, "Master, what you mean is that she might not be a concubine? She could be a concubine?!"

Dan Tao opened her mouth, "This... is impossible?"

Several people in the palace were promoted to concubines by relying on favor or giving birth to children.

If a woman of ordinary status and appearance suddenly gained the upper hand, I'm afraid no one would accept it.

Xie Run leaned back in his chair, a little lazy. "It all depends on the prince's wishes. But when it comes to favors, I'm afraid Concubine Wan is the most dissatisfied."

The two girls' eyes lit up. "This guy has been thinking about doing something bad lately. It's going to be fun."

The first thing King Jing did after returning home was to deal with Concubine Jiang.

King Jing was too lazy to see her and only demoted her to a concubine. At the same time, she moved out of Songya Courtyard and lived in Yunbi Pavilion next door.

Due to the death of Concubine Yun, the Qiufeng Courtyard under the Concubine's rule became vacant.

But King Jing did not let Jiang Baobao live in Qiufeng Courtyard, but chose a pavilion that was neither too big nor too small for her to live in.

This shows how much King Jing hates Jiang Baobao.

If her marriage had not been arranged by the emperor and it had not been a crucial moment in the fight for the throne, King Jing really wanted to demote her to a commoner.

As for the maids around her, they were still treated as the princess would treat them.

King Jing thought about it and was still angry, so he sentenced Concubine Jiang to house arrest for another six months.

At the same time as Concubine Jiang was demoted, the news that Fang Yuaner was promoted to Concubine also spread throughout the backyard.

Everyone had expected the former, but the latter caught everyone off guard.

Concubine Lu came to Xie Run eagerly: "Sister Xie, you are really as predictable as a god!"

"The prince actually promoted Concubine Fang to concubine!"

Concubine Lu had received the message from Xie Run a long time ago. After her initial surprise, she now accepted it well.

She carefully looked at Xie Run and asked softly, "The prince was just out for a while, and Concubine Fang hadn't shown any favor or merit, so how come she was suddenly promoted?"

"Sister Xie's favor in the past was no less than that of Concubine Fang. Is there a chance... of advancement?"

If Xie Run became a concubine, the thighs that Concubine Lu would hug would become even thicker, and she would probably wake up laughing in her dreams.

Xie Run smiled and said, "Since the prince has promoted her to concubine Fang, it must be because of her great contribution."

"Nothing happens without a reason in this world."

"As for me, I have neither merit nor fault, so I dare not expect too much."

In front of Concubine Lu, Xie Run was not prepared to act like a love-brained man.

When the news of Concubine Fang's promotion came, her first reaction was that Fang Yuan'er used the ability of "prophecy".

I'm afraid Fang Yuan'er was involved in Prince Su's rebellion, Yunzhou's disaster relief, and Prince Taiyuan's uprising.

Although these things helped Fang Yuaner become a concubine, they also brought another crisis to Fang Yuaner.

The fact that she traveled through a book and exchanged souls can no longer be concealed!

Wan Linlang is not a fool. It is hard not to be suspicious of King Jing's choice of Yunzhou to provide disaster relief.

Now that Prince Jing has returned home, the first thing he does is to promote Fang Yuaner.

This confirmed Wan Linlang's guess.

In the past, Fang Yuaner was in the dark and Wan Linlang was in the light, which is why Wan Linlang often suffered losses at the hands of Fang Yuaner.

Now that Fang Yuaner has exposed her biggest secret, how could Wan Linlang let her go easily?

Thinking of the fierce struggle that might happen in the future, Xie Run couldn't help but feel a chill on his back.

After Prince Jing returned home, he naturally spent the first night in the princess's yard.

The new Miss Hua is still in mourning and her status is not yet confirmed.

King Jing only visited her during the day and did not plan to stay overnight.

The next night, he stayed in the courtyard of the newly promoted Concubine Fang.

After Fang Yuaner was promoted, she did not choose Lanxiang Courtyard, but chose Songya Courtyard to move in.

After all, although Jiang Baobao is disgusting, no one has ever died in Songyayuan.

After Concubine Ning died in Lanxiangyuan, Lanxiangyuan became desolate and cold, and everyone felt that the courtyard was unlucky.

For the next five days, King Jing stayed in Songyayuan every day.

For a time, Fang Yuaner stole the limelight and became the hottest topic in the palace.

In Chunshan Courtyard, Xiaoshu and Dantao couldn't help but worry about Xie Run.

Xiao Shu: "Master, would you mind sending something to the study? At least remind the prince that you still exist in the mansion."

Dan Tao also said, "The prince has been back for six days. Except for the first day when he stayed in the princess's courtyard, he stayed in Concubine Fang's courtyard for the next few days."

"Originally, the Master and Concubine Fang shared the same favor, but now..."

Everyone was afraid that King Jing would go out and forget about Xie Run.

Men are always fickle.

New people come into the palace one after another, and no matter how favored the old ones were in the past, that is all in the past.

Xie Run... was not panicked at all.

She said calmly, "Don't worry, I need to think about how to meet the prince."
