Chapter 53: Discuss the plan
Chapter 53
Anyone can see that the relationship between Feng Yinshuang and the third prince is no longer as close as it used to be.
No one in Southern Chu knew that Feng Yinshuang, the eldest lady of the Feng family, loved the third prince so much that she even went to the Three Princes' Mansion to find him every day.
But now, the third prince ran to the Taishi mansion one after another, but Feng Yinshuang did not show any performance at all. Instead, everyone heard that she went to the Qingping palace several times, and it took a long time to come out.
This is really shocking news. Could it be that because Feng Yinshuang worshipped King Qingping, he already had a heart for King Qingping, but instead she left her old friend behind?
Of course, there are also some rumors, saying that Feng Yinshuang is no longer innocent, and the wedding room Huazhuye has already reconciled with Qingping Wang.
Isn't it good to say that to whom a woman's body is given, then her heart will naturally fall on whom. Isn't her current attitude towards King Qingping and the third prince a clear proof?
It's just that this woman's heart is big enough. The third prince is so handsome and suave, and she doesn't think she is innocent. She doesn't know how to cherish it. If she insists on marrying King Qingping, she is not afraid that she will become the next ghost to die in vain. What?
She is young and ignorant. The most incomprehensible thing is why the Feng family didn't come forward to stop her. Aren't they the most precious and only daughter?
It's not just that they can't understand it, I'm afraid that even the parties can't accept it, right?
Li Fei saw that the situation was getting worse and worse, and she couldn't sit still.
If it goes on like this, when will she be able to help her emperor gain the world?
Seeing that the emperor's body is not as good as the day, if the crown prince or the second prince inherits the throne, then it will be difficult for their mother and son to turn over.
Although the life in the palace is rich and noble, and the food is brocade, but repeating the same life every day is simply miserable. If one day she can become the empress dowager and sit on the world with her son, then she will really be. It's got what you want.
In the name of praying for the country and going to Putuo Temple in the capital to offer incense, Concubine Li got the token and left the palace. When she came back, she stopped by her son's house to stay for a while, which was not too much.
Nan Yutian received the report from Concubine Li's personal maid, so she made preparations early to welcome her concubine.
Su Manrou also heard about this, so she immediately came to the Three Kings Mansion, wanting to behave well in front of Concubine Li and leave a good impression on her.
Before, when she came to the Three Princes' Mansion, she had to sneak around, for fear of being discovered, but since Feng Yinshuang promised her to be the concubine of the Third Prince, she came here every time she came, and she was no longer afraid of attracting gossip.
…
After Concubine Li came to the Three Kings Mansion, Nan Yutian immediately backed away, and only he and Su Manrou were here.
Obviously, they have business to talk about.
Concubine Li glanced at Su Manrou. She had never put this little county magistrate's daughter in her eyes, but now maybe it's the time to hire someone, and she's actually a little more amiable.
"Rouer, this palace has already heard from the emperor, when the agreed time comes, you will marry the emperor with Yin Shuang, and the sisters will serve the same husband. When you were with Yin Shuang before, this palace I just feel that you are gentle, well-behaved, caring and sensible, and I can feel at ease if you can follow the emperor in the future."
When Su Manrou heard it, she immediately felt flattered, and quickly said modestly, "Thank you, Concubine Li, it is a blessing for Rouer to be able to serve the third prince, and Rouer will definitely not disappoint her expectations, and she will definitely serve the third prince well in the future."
Li Fei took her hand and looked at her with a loving smile: "Silly child, do you still want to be so polite to this palace? This name... should we change it, and I will follow the emperor to call this palace in the future? Mother-in-law."
What, mother-in-law!
Even if she marries Nan Yutian, she is only a lady. To put it bluntly, she is just a concubine. How can she be qualified to be called such a name?
But since she asked so, Su Manrou is naturally very happy, Li Fei likes her, that's a good thing. Isn't she running here to show her hospitality today, for the same purpose? Now, it seems that everything is developing as she wishes, so how could she be unhappy.
"Yes, mother-in-law!"
Nan Yutian heard that she actually screamed like that, a cold light flashed in his eyes, what kind of thing is she, and how can she have such qualifications?
But thinking that the mother-in-law must have her intentions for doing this, so he held back for the time being.
At this time, Concubine Li suddenly took off the pair of jade bracelets she was wearing, and put it on Su Manrou's hand herself.
"You will be Ben Gong's daughter-in-law in the future. When this mother-in-law sees her daughter-in-law, she should have a little greeting. This is a little bit of Ben Gong's heart."
This Li Fei is also very kind to her, right? It made her feel like a pie fell from the sky and hit her head heavily.
Although Su Manrou is powerful, she is not stupid, and immediately feels that things are not so simple.
"How can Rou'er accept such a precious thing? Besides... even if you want to give it, you should give it to Sister Yinshuang."
As soon as she gritted her teeth, she gestured to take it off and go back, but at this time another hand pressed on hers, preventing her from moving.
Looking up, it turned out to be the third prince. Could it be that he also hopes that she can accept this pair of jade bracelets?
Nan Yutian said indifferently: "Since it is the heart of the mother-in-law, will you accept it?"
Su Manrou tried her best to hide the ecstasy in her heart. How could she really want to return the bracelet, she was just worried that the third prince would think that she didn't understand etiquette, and now even he said so, then of course she felt relieved to take it immediately.
Just because Concubine Li and the Third Prince treated her so well, even if they asked her to help with anything, she would never turn back.
It can be seen that she is really a very powerful person, and she also knows how to follow the trend to please.
This sweetness is enough, then it is time to accept the results.
Su Manrou herself understood this truth, so she was mentally prepared.
"Very good, we will be a family from now on. Rou'er, you are a smart woman, so you must understand what Ben Gong is going to say next. The emperor will be your husband in the future. As a woman, the honor and disgrace of a husband is also Our honor and disgrace, if we don’t want to be subservient to others, we should fight hard for ourselves, and in the future, our husband will flourish, then your identity will naturally not be the same as today.”
Although Su Manrou has not read many books, she is not stupid. Of course, she can understand what Li Fei means.
Nan Yutian is already the third prince, so how can he soar?
Going up, isn't that the position of the emperor of the Ninety-five Zhizun?
Although Su Manrou had always known that Nan Yutian had asked her to monitor Feng Yinshuang many times and asked her to report everything about Feng Yinshuang to him, he had never admitted it so personally, and now Concubine Li directly This matter was torn apart, and Su Manrou's face turned pale when she heard it.
The ambition is there, but she is also a little scared. Are they just trying to win over the forces to compete for the throne? Or is it simply trying to usurp the throne?
If he fails, wouldn't he also be implicated, that is the big sin of punishing the Nine Clan, I feel a little weak when I think about it.
But think about it again, if it is successful, the third prince will become emperor in the future, and she can be his concubine.
The woman of the emperor, what a noble and proud identity that must be, she felt excited when she thought about it.
As the saying goes, if you don't enter the tiger's den, how can you get a tiger's son? She must have confidence in the third prince, and this is also a good opportunity for her to surrender and express herself.
Su Manrou immediately took a few steps back, then knelt on the ground and kowtowed to show her loyalty.
"Rou'er understands that the third prince will be Rou'er's husband in the future. In order to help the third prince complete the big plan, Rou'er is willing to do anything."
It is a very sensible woman, she has been by Feng Yinshuang's side all the time before, she must be able to help them a lot.
"Bengong heard that Yinshuang got a new good sister today, Shen Ying, daughter of the newly appointed Shen Hanlin. At the palace banquet that day, Bengong also met her and saw her and Fengyin. Shuang has a good relationship, but you are left out in the cold, what's going on?"
Sure enough, Jiang was old and hot, and Concubine Li would directly attack people's sore spots as soon as she spoke. Su Manrou was very jealous because of this matter, but now that Concubine Li mentioned it, she couldn't help but redden her eyes.
"My status is humble, and naturally I can't compare to them. Now that Miss Shen's father has also been promoted, her status has also become noble. What am I supposed to do?"
Concubine Li frowned and looked at her. She had to figure out what was going on now. No matter why she and Feng Yinshuang became like this, she had to think of a way to make her regain Feng Yinshuang's trust.
"Hasn't she always regarded you as a good sister? Before, she would take you wherever she went. Why didn't she see you disgusting your identity at that time? You honestly tell this palace, did something happen between the two of you? Are you hiding something from us?"
Nan Yutian had already mentioned to her about using Su Manrou, but now they feel that this piece is gradually losing its value, so they have to quickly find a way to remedy it.
When Su Manrou heard this, she quickly shook her head: "No, how could Rouer dare to deceive the mother and the third prince? We were really good before, but on the day she got married, I felt like she was a little different from before. After that, she began to alienate me intentionally or unintentionally, Rouer really doesn't know what's going on!"
Concubine Li and Nan Yutian looked at each other, thinking about the authenticity of what she said, because even they felt that the current Feng Yinshuang seemed a little strange, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.
Now after careful questioning, from Su Manrou's mouth, they suddenly felt that they might be able to get some valuable clues.
