Prequel to the Red Chamber: I Am the Second Wife

Jia Zheng was grinning in front of the mirror and rubbing a barely visible bruise on the corner of his mouth, Zili was holding back a smile and standing beside him, holding a white jade box and dipping his finger in the ointment for Jia Zheng to rub With bruises on his face. "Hiss, it hurts, take it easy!" Jia Zheng yelled out the pain, but his hands dishonestly climbed up to Zili's waist, stroking around Zili's waist.

Zili purposely tightened his hands, causing Jia Zheng to scream even louder, shouting that it hurts to death, grandma should be more gentle. "Stop pretending, it's just that I made a mistake and made you feel so wronged. Let the wife and the master know and write a letter to teach you a lesson." Zili rolled his eyes at Jia Zheng.

She and Jia Zheng have now become celebrities in Qingzhou official circles. As Zili expected, although Zili accepted the dry stock sent by Li Yangde, Wei Wang was obviously not at ease. He took advantage of the peony in his garden When the flowers bloomed, they asked Princess Wei to invite Jia Zheng and Zili to enjoy the flowers and drink.Naturally, Zili and other female guests were entertained by the concubine and the concubines of Prince Wei's residence in the inner courtyard.During the banquet, Princess Wei was dignified and generous, courteous and thoughtful to the guests.It's just that Zili clearly felt the princess's indifference and alienation.She secretly looked at the princess, although she was dressed in fine clothes and full of jewels, but in the eyes of the princess, there was no hint of happiness at all.But this is also expected, Wei Wangfei and Wei Wang are incompatible, and they seem to have very different views on the reserve position.It is not bad to respect each other as guests if the way is different.

On the contrary, one of King Wei's favored concubines, Concubine Qin, was free and unrestrained, calling out to serve dishes, asking Zili for a show, and talking vividly about the origins and benefits of the various peonies.Compared with the indifference and alienation of Princess Wei and other concubines who were either timid or slightly frivolous, it seemed that Concubine Qin was more and more free and generous.

That Concubine Qin's looks really showed that even though she was wearing layers of loose clothes, she could still see that Concubine Qin had a good figure with a slender waist and a slender waist.Concubine Qin has a good figure, and Concubine Qin has good looks. Zili has seen many beauties, but Concubine Qin is so delicate and cute, with bright facial features and innocent eyes, she has never seen Zili, a beauty who is feminine in every move she makes. .

The wife of the envoy Dian found that Zili had been watching Concubine Qin quietly, so she lowered her voice and said, "Mrs. Xian is looking at her?! This Concubine Qin is the prince's favorite person. This peony garden is for the prince to win a smile from a beautiful woman." It really was built with a lot of money.”

The fire of gossip in Zili's heart was also stirred up, and she said in a low voice: "If you really are a prince, you will spend a lot of money without frowning. But Qin Fei is like this, and anyone is willing to change her personality. I think she also likes it very much. I just wonder what her background is?"

"Well, I've also heard about this. It is said that this Concubine Qin is a woman from a good family. It's just that her father is an old scholar who has been tried for a long time, and the family only has a few acres of Susukida to rely on the church for a living. Who knows that she was born so She was born as a daughter, and she was also literate since she was a child. It is said that she has never forgotten books, and her poems and articles are better than men. Her father only has her as a daughter, and every time she sighs, it’s a pity that you are not a boy and cannot shine in the family. Now she She has been favored by the prince, and the prince has already played the role and made her a serious side concubine, and her family and even the Tang clan have rewarded her. I heard that one of her cousins ​​even won a small official from the Ministry of Industry." Dian Envoy The wife said that Concubine Qin's life experience is very precious.

"It's not in vain that her father's hard work in raising her was not wasted." Zili smiled slightly, holding a wine glass and sighing to Mrs. Dianshi: "I think the princess treats her well, but I don't know if she has any children."

"I haven't heard of it yet. Although the princess has always been generous and kind to the concubines in the house, but according to the posture of the prince doting on the concubine Qin, if the concubine Qin gave birth to a son, the princess will be uncomfortable. Everyone knows that the prince treats the concubine The son you give birth to is not very important." As soon as Mrs. Dianshi finished speaking, she saw Qin Fei Tingting approaching gracefully.
