Don't be a salted fish, the daily life of the concubine in the palace

The princess' body trembled slightly. She looked at the queen in disbelief: "Mother..."

The Queen said in a dignified voice: "Tan Tai Shu Ya, kneel down!"

The princess's knees softened and she fell to the ground. She was full of grievances. Every time she came to the queen, she always felt a huge pressure.

She didn't understand why the queen always treated her so harshly.

It was clear that the Queen had treated her kindly and leniently in the past few years; but in the past two years, the Queen had always been unhappy whenever she saw her.

Sitting on the majestic throne of Kunning Palace, the Queen spoke coldly: "You are the mistress of the Prince of Yan's mansion, in charge of the harem. A concubine had an affair with a groom under your nose and got pregnant! Do you want to ridicule the Prince of Yan in the capital?"

"Ms. Shen was favored by the King of Yan and was falsely accused of having an affair. I don't believe you can't see something strange! But you deliberately blinded yourself and tried to kill her!"

The princess' heart seemed to be squeezed. She lowered her head in grievance, and her eyes suddenly turned red.

The princess kowtowed and said, "Please forgive me, mother. It is my fault. From now on, I will not interfere in the struggles of my concubines."

boom--

The queen smashed the cup in her hand, and the fine Biluochun tea leaves spilled all over the floor, with the aroma of tea filling the air.

The palace maids and eunuchs serving around were so frightened that they all knelt on the ground.

The queen was so disappointed that she angrily scolded, "You are the mistress, and it is your job to manage the harem. But you are not even half a mistress now? You don't ask about the land and shops in the palace! You held a spring banquet a few days ago, and you even let assassins sneak in!

You either chant sutras in the Buddhist temple every day, or force your children to study to death! Which mistress in Yanjing would be as cowardly as you? "

The princess lowered her eyes and said nothing.

She didn't think she was wrong.

In other big families in Yanjing, wives and concubines fought to the death. Although there were some minor setbacks in the Prince of Yan’s mansion, it was generally peaceful.

Isn’t it good that the wife and concubine seem to be living in harmony?

The queen was so angry that her chest heaved. She pointed at the princess and cursed: "You can't even manage a small Yanwang Mansion. How will you be in the future... How will you be..."

The queen did not say the rest, and could not say it.

The princess felt very aggrieved and defended herself, "Mother, I did not manage the palace well, but I raised Cheng Ke and Cheng Zhen very well."

It would have been fine if she didn't mention the two children, but when she mentioned Cheng Ke and Cheng Zhen, the Queen was furious: "The children get up before dawn to study, and recite books late at night. They get sick every now and then at such a young age. Do you call this raising them well? Tan Tai Shu Ya, you will harm the two children sooner or later!"

The princess clutched her sleeves.

The two children started to learn early and were among the best students in the Imperial College. The princess did not think she had done anything wrong.

The queen didn't want to see the princess's stupid face, so she ordered, "Go to the outer hall and kneel down, think about where you went wrong, and kneel until noon before you can return to the palace."

The princess left the main hall with tears in her eyes and felt sad.

Inside the palace, the old maid who served the queen brought a bowl of medicinal soup. After the queen drank the bitter soup, she sighed and said, "I shouldn't have chosen Tan Tai Shu Ya as Yuan Jing's wife back then."

The old nanny comforted her: "My lady, this is not your fault. You arranged everything for the Crown Prince and the Prince of Yan, but you didn't expect the Crown Prince's health..."

The queen raised her two sons in different ways.

As for Crown Prince Li Yuanchang, the Queen cultivated him as the future heir to the throne and poured all her efforts into him. She forced him to study hard and learn how to handle family and national affairs since he was young.

As for the second son, Li Yuanjing, the queen trained him as the prince's arm, and she devoted much less care to the prince of Yan. The prince of Yan learned both civil and military skills since childhood, and went to the border to gain experience when he was a teenager. He grew up in a relatively relaxed environment and was in good health.

The queen also chose different wives for her two sons. The carefully selected princess consort was well-educated, well-mannered and good at housekeeping. She was a good helper to the prince and would definitely become a virtuous queen in the future.

Yan Wang's wife, Tan Tai Shu Ya, was born into a prominent family. The Queen hastily betrothed her to Yan Wang without thoroughly examining her character and housekeeping skills. After all, there was no need to use the same standards for selecting a crown princess to select a princess.

Everything was going well, but the prince read too much in his childhood, which damaged his health, and now his health is getting worse.

The imperial physician said that the prince had three years at most to live.

The prince was weak and could not consummate his marriage with his wives and concubines, which resulted in the fact that there was no boy in the Eastern Palace. Therefore, the only person who could inherit the throne of Daqing in the future was the Prince of Yan.

The more the queen thought about it, the more headache she had: "Look at Tan Tai Shu Ya's personality. She doesn't care about big things, doesn't care about small things, and forces her children to study to death. She pretends to be as indifferent as a chrysanthemum, but secretly even the concubines are jealous of her. If she becomes the queen in the future, can she manage the harem? Can she handle the conflicts between the former dynasty and the harem?"

Of course it's impossible.

To enjoy the honor of being a queen, one must fulfill the corresponding responsibilities. Any woman who becomes a queen cannot have a lazy and sloppy character.

In his position, he seeks his government.

The old nanny pressed the queen's shoulders and patiently advised her: "My queen, if you give the princess more advice, she will understand your painstaking efforts sooner or later."

The queen sighed, "If she hadn't given birth to three children, I would have really wanted to depose her for Yuan Jing. If she becomes queen in the future, the harem will be different from the palace, and every woman will be a beast."

Those wives and concubines in Prince Yan's mansion who are incompetent and lazy will sooner or later be killed to pieces in the turbulent harem.

The queen closed her eyes, her nose sour: "I feel even more sorry for Yuan Jing... All these years, my thoughts have been on Yuan Chang, and I haven't given Yuan Jing much care, but I have put the future of Qing on his shoulders."

Although Prince Yan did not mention it, the Queen could see that Prince Yan really needed love deep down.

The Prince of Yan envied his brother the Crown Prince for having all the love of a mother; he also envied the Crown Prince and the Crown Princess, who loved each other and supported each other.

King Yan longed for someone who had no mixed feelings about other people and who only had him in his eyes and heart.

But how could there be such a person in the world?

The queen thought of the little concubine in the palace: "Shen, who was falsely accused, once again saved Zhaoyang during the Dongshan hunting trip. I want to see her at Zhaoyang's birthday party."

The old nanny said, "Don't worry, Madam. Princess Zhaoyang values ​​friendship and loyalty, and has invited Shen to the birthday banquet."

...

...

Time flies, and two days have passed in the blink of an eye.

This morning, Shen Wei was lying on the table in the waterside pavilion, thinking about the opening plan of the ice drink shop. She asked Rong Mama to rent a street-side shop in Yanjing in her personal name, and the shop had been renovated in the past two days.

All the ingredients for making iced drinks and desserts have also been purchased.

Everything is ready, except for a good manager who can manage "Weixue Ice City".

Cai Ping trotted into the waterside pavilion and told Shen Wei, "Master, there is news about Miss Ye. She arrived in Yanjing last night and is now staying at Wangshu Inn."

Caiping, the gossip genius, has set up an information network in the palace and even bribed the maids around the princess.

There is nothing in this world that money can't do.

As long as the money is enough, you can find out what color the emperor's autumn johns are wearing tonight.

"Very good." Shen Wei put down the brush, "Cai Ping, tell the rich steward that I need to go out of the palace to visit my relatives."

Cai Ping: “Okay!”

Shen Wei put on a white veil to cover her face and got on the carriage in a low-key manner. After a tour around Yanjing City, they came to the most lively Wangshu Inn in Yanjing.

Wangshu Inn has many guests coming and going every day, and the entrance is crowded with carriages. There are so many carriages that Shen Wei's carriage cannot stop, so she can only get off the carriage and walk to the entrance by herself.

"There's not even a parking space." Shen Wei secretly shook her head, "If I opened an inn, I would definitely plan enough parking spaces."

As soon as this idea came up, Shen Wei, who was good at making money, suddenly felt excited. Yes, in addition to opening a dessert shop, she could also open a restaurant and inn.

Selling "Weixue Bingcheng" desserts in restaurants is mutually beneficial and will increase brand awareness.

Write this idea down silently and realize it in the future.

Shen Wei took Rong Mama into the inn. Rong Mama was holding a food box in her hand and whispered, "Master, I have already found out that Ye Qiushuang lives in Room No. 1. According to your instructions, some things in the backyard of Prince Yan's Mansion have been deliberately passed on to Ye Qiushuang's ears."

Shen Wei curled her lips: "Very good, let's go upstairs and find her directly."

Aunt Rong was surprised: "Are you going to come directly to the house to find me?"

Shen Wei chuckled: "Yes, we must be sincere when recruiting new employees."
