1923 concubines 24

The concubines in the palace and the empress were in charge of the Harem. The emperor brought Consort Xian and Consort Shu, who were the second prince and the third Prince's mother-in-law.

During lunch, Xia Ling heard from the servants that the third prince and the fourth prince had an argument, and Sima Zhao was ridiculed.

The third prince had a willful temper. With him around, Sima Zhao would not be able to have a good life.

Xia Ling had already expected this.

Then, the next day, when they set off again, Xia Ling suddenly noticed that there was an additional person beside their carriage.

Sima Zhao Rode on his horse and did not follow the royal team in front. Instead, he was at the back with General Feng and stayed outside Xia Ling and Madam Feng's carriage.

Those who could follow were all important figures in the capital. Sima Zhao's actions were too sensitive.

General Feng's face darkened, and so did Madam Feng's.

A dignified prince was sticking to them like a piece of Sh * T. could he still have some face... ...

Feng Yan was now a married man. Sima Zhao did not want his reputation, but Feng Yan did!

General Feng was called by Madam Feng to scold him. General Feng turned around and went to the emperor to complain. His own carriage was not very useful and could not keep up with the speed of the imperial family. It needed to be repaired.

The emperor had many eyes and ears. He naturally knew why General Feng was crying like this.

The emperor called Sima Zhao back and scolded him.

The next day, everyone knew that Sima Zhao had been scolded by the emperor. He lost all face.

Sima Zhao returned to the front of the procession from outside Xia Ling's carriage.

From the beginning to the end, Sima Zhao did not show any extra attention to Xia Ling. However, sitting in the carriage, Xia Ling would occasionally lift the curtain to look outside. She could see that Sima Zhao was secretly observing the carriage.

That kind of handsome and sinister gaze was as heavy as a vine that grew from a vicious land.

Sima Zhao's reputation had been destroyed in the circle, but he had also obtained peace. The third prince would never find trouble with him again.

Being reprimanded in front of the Emperor, Sima Zhao's chances of snatching the throne had also been completely destroyed.

In the late July, the vast summer vacation team finally arrived at the summer resort.

The courtyards here were all high-walled large courtyards, with palaces and courtyards.

The Imperial Palace housed the emperor, imperial concubines, and princes, and close to them were the ministers. According to their ranks, they lived one by one.

Xia Ling and Madam Feng lived in the second-class courtyard, which was the treatment of General Feng as a minister.

"When you go out, be careful, " Madam Feng reminded Xia Ling "those women outside, there are people in front of you and people behind you. We mother and daughter are already beautiful in our clothes, and they are jealous. But with your father around, no one dares to do anything. But -- "

"It's easy to hide a spear in the open, but it's hard to guard against an Arrow in the dark. I'm just afraid that some people are playing tricks behind my back. When you go out of the courtyard, don't even drink water outside. Remember to bring a handkerchief with you. If it touches your mouth, spit it out in time. " Madam Feng looked fierce, but she was actually very meticulous.

Xia Ling nodded repeatedly, learning a lot.

The next day, she had her maidservants make a few handkerchiefs and carry them with her.

Of course, these handkerchiefs were not personally embroidered by her. There was not a single mark that was related to her. They were also taught by Mrs. Feng to prevent them from being used by people with good intentions.

On the third day, Xia Ling received a letter from Feng Zhen informing her that she was safe. It was from General Feng.

Feng Zhen reported the situation of the Frontier Fortress to General Feng and also wrote a letter to Xia Ling.

Feng Zhen's words were very hard, penetrating through the back of the paper.

"everything is fine. Don't worry, take care of yourself. "

Because she could not use the open channel, the letter was very short.

However, regardless of the length of the letter, Xia Ling was very satisfied to be able to think of her and send her a message.
