Chapter 25 "Legend of the Demon Concubine"
In this way, Xiaojuzi became the young master's exclusive playmate, and the young master also called her "sister".
The eldest young lady didn't even stop him from calling her that, and let the young master call her that. This shows how much the eldest young lady doted on this little girl.
During this time, the Seventh Young Master did go to the Eldest Young Lady and told her that the orange was not good and asked her to return it to him or to the servants' quarters.
The eldest young lady only said that Xuan'er liked her, and she was afraid that Xuan'er would make a fuss if she wanted Xiaojuzi to leave now, so she decided to wait until Xuan'er was older.
Time passed day by day, and in the blink of an eye it was my wife's birthday. In the past, there was nothing special about my wife's birthday. At most, her children and relatives would come over for a meal.
It happened to be the wife's 50th birthday, and because a noble had come to the mansion, all the married ladies had returned home. So, the eldest young lady suggested a grand celebration, and the eldest master actually agreed.
Therefore, the He family held a very decent birthday banquet for the lady, and also invited the prominent ladies and daughters in Anshun City to come to the house to join in the fun.
Everyone in the mansion, big and small, went up and said auspicious words, but none of them could compare to what the young master said.
The little person knelt in the middle of the room, holding a big "Shou" character written on red paper. Although the characters were not very pretty, the words sounded very nice.
"This is the best longevity character Xuan'er has ever written. I asked my mother to send it to my grandmother's home to be worshipped for three days. I want to dedicate it to my grandmother who has worked the hardest and the most tired. I hope she will be safe and sound every year!"
The ladies and young ladies in the hall couldn't help but feel their hearts ache at this villain.
"Why do you say your grandmother is the most tired? Is it because you are naughty that your grandmother is mad at you?"
"Xuan'er doesn't. Xuan'er knows that the person who works the hardest for her children is her mother. Therefore, the person who works the hardest in this house is my mother's mother, so that's my grandmother! My grandmother works very hard, and Xuan'er will never make her angry."
"My dear grandson! ..."
Mrs. He was so happy that she forgot to behave like a hostess. She took the child and kissed him, making Xuan'er's face drool.
With such a well-behaved son, the eldest lady was naturally liked by the wife even more. The aunts who came back also loved the eldest grandson of the He family very much and praised the child to the sky and the earth.
Today's banquet was a grand one, and the mansion had also arranged a troupe of actors. The ladies went to watch the opera, and the young ladies who didn't want to watch the opera were accompanied by the mistress to the garden. The He family's garden was very famous.
The ladies were sitting in the pavilion, drinking tea and chatting. They heard the sound of a play starting from afar and couldn't help but start chatting...
"What's the story ahead? Isn't it about loyal ministers and good generals?"
"What other dramas can there be? Otherwise, it's always the same old stories of the queen entrusting her orphan to someone else, or the wife and children being separated...."
"That's right. There haven't been any new plays released in the past few years. It's just the same few plays over and over again."
"That's right, it's not as interesting as reading a storybook."
"Speaking of storybooks, do you know 'The Legend of the Demon Concubine'?"
"Yes, why?"
"I heard that the leader of Xiao Wei's class is going to perform an excerpt from this play."
"Really? What's the discount?"
"Of course it's Ten Questions on the Execution Ground. I heard that three gentlemen were asked to write the script. Now, someone has already decided on the play."
"Really? That's great! If it's put on a show, the tickets for the first show will definitely sell like crazy."
"Yes, the troupe leader Xiao Wei played Qin Qiong Niang himself, and also invited that young student Tan to play Gu Tingyu. He said that he would perform an excerpt first, and if it was successful, he would perform the full version of 'Yu Qiong Biography'."
"That's great!"
"If you ask me, the name 'The Legend of Yu Qiong' is much better than 'The Legend of the Demon Concubine'"
"That's right, Qin Qiongniang didn't do anything, but she was called a witch. Really, these writers are so cruel and vicious."
"Alas, who could have said such a thing? Moreover, there is also the matter of Master Gu... How could the emperor tolerate such a thing?"
"But, the Ten Questions of the Execution clearly stated that there was no private relationship between the two of them."
"Originally, the Queen wanted to wrongly accuse Concubine Qin, but in the end, she failed to harm anyone and lost her own child. She even tried to blame others. It's a pity for Gu Tingyu, a famous family."
"Yes... But if, if a girl could have someone like Mr. Gu treat her sincerely, it would really be..."
"Yes, it's a pity that they can only meet in the next life."
"I think that even if Concubine Qin didn't have Gu Tingyu in her heart at the execution ground, she must have had him in her heart for the next three years. Otherwise, why would she commit suicide on the day of Gu Tingyu's death three years after his death, and chase him away?"
"Three years after death? That's the book you're reading? What I'm reading is about the emperor ordering death."
"No way, this is a very early version."
"Really? But..."
"Hey, stop arguing. This is a story from the previous dynasty, Da Qi. There are many versions handed down. Some say that the two of them were originally engaged, but because Concubine Qin was good at math and knew the secrets of heaven, she helped the then King of Wu to seize the world, and that's why she entered the palace. There are all kinds of stories handed down."
"Yes, I have also heard this story. It says that Concubine Qin is very different from the others. Not only is she the most beautiful in the harem, but she is also very cunning."
"I haven't heard of it, what is it like?"
"What's the big deal? I have a copy here, and it's a hidden copy, right?"
"Really, if the eldest young lady has this book, I wonder if you could take it out and let us see it. We would be grateful."
"Haha... Okay, you can take it out and have a look, but we have a deal, I won't lend it out."
"Haha...Okay, we'll just look at it, not lend it to you."
"...By the way, do you know what happened in the end?"
"My book says that after Concubine Qin died, she was not buried in the imperial mausoleum. Her body was taken away by her family. It says that she was buried on a hill, facing Gu Tingyu's tomb from a distance."
"The book you have is just about a talented scholar and a beautiful woman. In fact, the reason why this book is called 'The Legend of the Demon Concubine' is not because of the story of Concubine Qin and the second son of the Gu family..."
"what is that?"
"Everyone calls it 'The Legend of the Demon Concubine' because this Concubine Qin was really different. Let's not talk about her saying 'All men are created equal'. After her death, her family and friends tried their best to avenge her. They even started a war and spent several years to overthrow Emperor Wen of Qi and replace him with his brother..."
"However, because of the heavy casualties in that war, coupled with the fratricide, Concubine Qin, who caused all of this, became a demon concubine in the writings of literati."
“I see, that’s really…”
"Look, here it is, my book..."
The eldest young lady took a book from a maid with a smile, put it on the round table and said, "This book not only contains the touching story between Concubine Qin and Gu Tingyu, but also the story of her second brother, the second young master of the Ji family, and his confidante who avenged her..."
"Oh, really..."
Just when everyone was listening attentively to the eldest young lady talking about this book.
Suddenly, a little girl dressed as a maid rushed into the pavilion, grabbed the "Legend of the Demon Concubine" on the table and started reading it.
