She returned to Meixiangju in the middle of the night. Because there was something going on in the army, Prince Rui went to the army in the middle of the night.
Prince Rui asked her to have a good rest, but how could she really sleep like this? The princess knew that she was sleeping in the study, and she might find some way to torment herself the next day.
She doesn't have the ability to fight against Jiang Yushu now.
When she returned to Meixiangju, the first thing she did was ask Lianrong for Bizi Soup.
She knew her status very well, and she dared to get pregnant without the ability to protect herself. The women in this house would have thousands of ways to miscarry.
In the ten days since she entered the mansion, she had found out that both concubines were pregnant, one was stillborn inexplicably, and the other fell and died after going to the yard to enjoy flowers.
There was also a concubine Yang who died in childbirth, causing damage to both mother and child.
Jiang Jinxin actually knew that it was Jiang Yushu who did it, because she had a medical girl who knew medical skills beside her, and she was a strong and jealous person. Before her legitimate son was born, how could she allow others to live before her?
Early in the morning, the princess sent someone to spread the word, saying that the new tea this year was good, and invited all the sisters to come and taste the tea.
Jiang Jinxin had no choice but to cheer up, pack herself up, and arrive at Qiluan Courtyard on time.
But she seemed to have arrived early. The princess had not yet finished her makeup, so she asked a group of people to wait at the door. Concubine Chen, concubine He, and three concubines were all there.
The two concubines were given by the Queen at last year's New Year's Eve banquet. Because the princess had been in the palace for a year and a half and had nothing to do, she gave them to the daughters of a small official family.
Later, he married two concubines, Concubine Gao and Concubine Liu. Concubine Liu was the daughter of Huang Shang, and Concubine Gao was the sister of the general next to Prince Rui and the legitimate second daughter of the Earl of Weiyuan. , a powerful concubine, Gao Concubine has a violent temper, but she is always troubled, while Liu Concubine is much gentler, never causing trouble, and never socializing with anyone.
The three concubines were all chosen by Jiang Yushu for Prince Rui. They were not ugly, but they were not good-looking either, and they were not very courageous. They had rules and duties.
As soon as Jiang Jinxin arrived, she bowed to the two concubines in a polite manner.
Concubine Chen glanced sideways at her, and with just one glance, she was shocked. She frowned and looked over, looking at her up and down without any hesitation, especially her breasts. Looking at her own, she was really infuriating.
All good things come to this bitch.
"Are you the concubine newly promoted by the princess?" Concubine He looked at her and was also very jealous.
Less than half a month after entering the mansion, the prince asked her to serve Xihui. She had been in the mansion for a year and a half, and the total was not enough for ten visits.
This charming and coquettish look is born to seduce men.
"Yes." She replied warmly.
"Hey, you are the new bed-warming girl that the princess has found for the prince. What is your name?"
A strange voice sounded behind him. With the help of a servant, he slowly walked forward and walked half a circle around Jiang Jinxin. When he saw Jiang Jinxin's face, his sarcastic smile slowly disappeared.
"My concubine's name is Jiang Jinxin. I have met Gao Fangfei." She bowed.
Hearing this, Concubine Gao laughed and said, "I heard that you came from the Qiyuan Marquis Mansion and have the same surname as the princess. You are not the princess's concubine or something, right?"
"I'm not worthy of you. I'm from a humble background and I don't dare to talk to the princess. I also ask the high concubine not to elevate me. It will make people think that I am deliberately causing misunderstandings."
Concubine Gao laughed, glanced at the concubines, and then at her, "You are much smarter than those few, and you are quite good at talking."
Jiang Jin was silent. Concubine Gao was digging a hole for her and Jiang Yushu. If she answered carelessly, there was no guarantee that Jiang Yushu would not hate her.
Although she has already held a grudge, it doesn't give her an excuse to torture herself.
At this time, Concubine Liu had also arrived, with some beads of sweat on her forehead. She looked like she was coming in a hurry, and she was tired after walking in a hurry.
Concubine Gao glanced at Concubine Liu, snorted, and immediately walked to the first position to stand.
Concubine Liu also glanced at Concubine Gao, slightly displeased, but said nothing, straightened her bun, and then stood on the other side.
Anyone with a discerning eye can see that these two people may have had conflicts again this morning.
Concubine Gao was in this courtyard, and even Jiang Yushu dared to speak disrespectfully occasionally, let alone Concubine Liu, the daughter of a mere merchant. The two of them fighting openly and secretly was nothing new in the house.
The situation outside was being watched from the inside, waiting for everyone to gather before opening the door.
Qiao'er opened the door and said with a smile, "Masters, our princess is pregnant and it is difficult to get up early. I have kept you waiting for a long time. Please come in with me. The tea has been brewed."
Hearing this, Concubine Gao looked a little ugly, but she forced a smile, stroked her temples, and stepped forward, "I was so unwell when I was pregnant with the child. You can understand it, but the princess is pregnant now, so why bother?" Why don’t we come here to order some good tea?"
"What Gao Fangfei said is that this tea is different from previous years. It is the top quality tea specially supplied to the royal family from southern Xinjiang. This year, the queen specially asked someone to send a batch to our princess. The princess thought that none of the masters had tasted it, so she could only I asked all the masters to make this trip." Qiao'er said with a warm smile.
Everyone took their seats one after another. Several concubines could only stand, and only concubines and above were qualified to sit.
Jiang Yushu pinched the handkerchief and pretended to be uncomfortable to cover her face. The servant quickly brought a spittoon to her. She retched a few times. After she felt comfortable, she sighed deeply.
"It's really difficult for this woman to be pregnant, especially when she wakes up early. I think my sisters will understand this too."
The expressions of Concubine Gao and Concubine Liu suddenly turned gloomy, as if they were remembering something sad, especially Concubine Gao, whose eyes were slightly red, but she still had to force herself to maintain her expression.
No one responded. Concubine Chen smiled quickly and said, "It's not easy for a woman to get pregnant. It's really hard for the princess."
Several concubines came forward one after another, "Thank you for your hard work, Princess."
Hearing this, Jiang Yushu smiled with satisfaction, "I am willing to work harder for such hard work a few more times. The prince has no children, so I am just waiting for you sisters to produce heirs for the prince."
"Not everyone is qualified for such hard work. For example, Concubine Chen, it has been almost two years since you entered the palace, and it seems that the prince has not even visited you a few times. Concubine He, the prince has visited you a lot, and your stomach is not good. It's not too big, but the rest of them look so crooked that the prince has lost his appetite." Concubine Gao snorted coldly.
This sentence made everyone in the room click on it.
"That's right. I wasn't lucky enough to be pregnant with the prince's child. Sister Gao was lucky enough to be pregnant, but she wasn't blessed enough. Didn't she keep it?" Concubine Chen rolled her eyes and snorted.
After Concubine Gao heard this, she immediately stood up and slapped Concubine Chen on the face, which shocked the whole audience.
Jiang Yushu immediately slapped the table and yelled, "Concubine Gao, what are you doing?"
"Concubine Chen is guilty of the crime below. I just want to teach my sister a lesson. No matter how unlucky I am, the prince will still care about me. But if I wait a little longer, I can still get pregnant again. But Concubine Chen is different. She has a baby." It’s not good-looking, and it’s even more clumsy. I’m afraid that if the prince wakes up at night and sees you lying next to you, he’ll think he’s having a nightmare.”
After saying that, he glanced at everyone with unkind eyes, twisted around and left.
Before leaving, he stared at Jiang Jinxin for a while before going out.
