Chapter 2
When Concubine Chen took Chen Jin over, she realized that not only Princess Rui was there, but even Princess Rui was sitting upright in the room, while Chen Zi was lying in Concubine Xu's arms and crying, standing quietly beside him and crying silently.
Chen Qi sat next to Princess Rui. Seeing Princess Chen and Shen Jin nodded slightly. Princess Rui saw Princess Chen frowned. After Princess Chen brought Chen Jin to ask his wishes, Princess Rui said, "Chen and the third girl sit down first, Cuixie will have tea."
King Rui didn't say anything. Although he favored Concubine Xu, he rarely spoke about the backyard and left it to Princess Rui to handle it. Princess Rui never disappointed him.
Chen Jin sat next to Concubine Chen, lowering her head and not speaking actively. Although she is also the daughter of King Rui, she rarely saw King Rui. More often, she heard from her second sister Chen Zi that what the father gave today and what the father rewarded tomorrow. From the beginning to the later period, it turned out that the father went to spend money again.
Princess Rui's voice was very gentle and asked, "Three girls, the prince and I asked you to come here, I'm asking you something."
"Yes, Mother." Chen Jin then raised his head and looked at Princess Rui.
Princess Rui asked, "Let me tell you what happened in the garden today."
"Yes." The fence-tree never ended well. Thinking of the news I heard in the garden today, Chen Jin lowered his eyes slightly and said the matter. She did not add fuel to the fire, but she honestly said what she saw and heard. However, people also have skills in speaking. If the order of some words changes slightly, the effect will not be certain. Chen Jin just quietly turned to the princess.
Chen Jin was a little worried about looking at Chen Zi who was crying with tears in her eyes, and continued, "I will go back first after that."
King Rui guessed from the beginning that the reason was probably because Chen Zi saw Chen Qi wearing that set of coral jewelry. Chen Zi asked for it, but it was not because he was reluctant to give it. But as soon as the reward was given, Princess Rui said hello and said that it was planned to leave it for Chen Qi, because Chen Qi was already at the age of going out, not only did the dowry but also things to go out.
Although King Rui loved Chen Zi, after all, Chen Qi was the legitimate daughter of the mansion and the eldest daughter, so naturally Chen Qi should be the first in everything. However, King Rui also asked someone to go to the south to buy things, and specially ordered him to buy more that Chen Zi liked.
But now it has started to make a fuss. On the one hand, he is the dignified concubine and on the other hand, he is the gentle and beautiful concubine Xu. King Rui knew that this matter was really Chen Zi’s fault, but it was his daughter who had been in love for a long time. King Rui frowned and said, “Chen, how did you educate your daughter.”
This was simply a disaster. Concubine Chen did not defend herself, so she quickly stood up and knelt down. Chen Jin's eyes were filled with tears, and she quickly got up and knelt beside Concubine Chen.
Princess Rui winked at her daughter who wanted to speak. Chen Qi pursed her lips and said without saying a word. Chen Jin held back her tears and said, "It's all my daughter's fault."
King Rui coughed, looked at Princess Rui and said, "Princess, what are you looking at?"
Princess Rui angrily glanced at King Rui and said softly, "Chen and the third girl get up. They are all small matters of their sisters. There is no question of who is right or wrong."
Concubine Chen then spoke, "Yes." She felt that she might as well die of illness after giving birth to her daughter, so she could send her daughter to the princess to raise her. She was also the prince's concubine, so why did she just dominate the two of them?
Concubine Xu said at this time, "Sister Chen, don't think that your sister is long-winded. The third girl is obviously a sister, but she doesn't know how to persuade her when she sees two sisters. And they are both the prince's daughters. Why do you want to snatch things from yourself? It's all at home. If you are outside, you will lose the prince's person." She sighed quietly, "Zi'er can't stand it, so she said a few more words. This girl has been a clumsy since childhood and can't speak and she loves to worry about her. She just attaches too much importance to the eldest girl, the sister."
Just say this directly. Chen Jin has a shallow eyelid. He wants something when he sees Chen Qi. Chen Zi couldn't stand it and cares about Chen Qi's sister, so he said a few words. Unfortunately, he is stupid and makes people feel that he is not listening enough. He puts all the responsibility on Chen Jin, pointing at Chen Jin's nose and calling her a shrewd trouble-provoking spirit.
Concubine Chen's face changed. She was willing to bear the grievances, but when it came to her daughter, she couldn't. However, before she could speak, Chen Jin took the initiative to stand up. Concubine Xu's eyes flashed. As long as Chen Jin dared to contradict her, she could hold the shit basin tightly on Chen Jin, and she could not give her daughter a bad reputation at all.
Who knew that Chen Jin ignored Concubine Xu at all, but said to Chen Qi, "It's all my fault today. My elder sister gave me this string because she loved me. Who knew that so many things happened? My elder sister belonged to me. Can I make the decision?"
Chen Qi looked at the third sister with tears in her eyes and nodded, "You can't blame you for this. I thought I gave you what I saw when I looked at you as cute as my third sister. Now it's yours, so you will naturally decide."
Chen Jin smiled at Chen Qi, with a small dimples on her face, but it made people feel sad and wanted to cry, and she felt sorry for her sensible and cute.
Even King Rui, who was standing by, felt a little uncomfortable. After all, the most innocent person in this matter was Chen Jin. Even if he didn't like Concubine Chen, Chen Jin was his daughter. It was obvious that everything had been resolved just now, but Xu refused to let go, and King Rui was a little unhappy.
Chen Jin stroked the coral skewers on his wrist, touched his white fingers, and then looked at Concubine Xu and Chen Zi beside her, and said, "Second sister, don't cry anymore. I don't know that the second sister likes this skewers so much. I just give the skewers to my second sister. Father and mother are most worried about us sisters on weekdays, and they will feel distressed when they see them."
When King Rui heard this, he was obviously stunned. He thought his third daughter was about to cry a few times, but he endured it back. Could it be that this is the reason? This is too stupid. Don’t you know that the child who will cry has candy to eat?
Princess Rui also sighed from the side and murmured softly, "This silly girl." No one could hear this sound, but the King Rui, who was sitting next to her, could hear it clearly.
Chen Jing felt that it was not good enough, so he quickly said, "Sister Third Sister, don't misunderstand it, the second sister is not because of this string."
"Yeah, that's good." Chen Jin did not refute, but instead took a few steps forward and stuffed the skewers into Chen Zi's hand, saying, "Just treat it as my sister for my sister."
Chen Jin said just now, Chen Zi couldn't cry anymore, as if she deliberately made King Rui feel distressed, but then a string of bracelets were stuffed. In this way, it was like she really cried because of this string, and she stopped crying when she got it. Chen Zi suddenly thought of this possibility, and saw that King Rui was indeed not good-looking, so he suddenly let go of his hand and said, "I don't want it."
The bright red coral beads fell to the ground, Chen Jin's body trembled and squatted down. She was young and had not yet grown up, and she still had a baby fat. When she squatted down, she was a small ball, which was particularly adorable. She saw her reaching out to pick up the string of coral beads, but she didn't stand up immediately. She secretly wiped her face with her sleeves, as if she wanted to hide something. However, the seats of King Rui and Princess Rui were sitting high. Although she couldn't see Chen Jin's face clearly, she could see clearly the small movements.
Chen Zi quickly stood up and said, "I didn't mean it. I just... I was so surprised that I missed the situation just now." This was barely an explanation.
"Yeah." Chen Jin stood up, put the coral beads on her handkerchief, wiped them clean and handed them to Chen Zi again, "To the second sister."
Chen Zi looked at her mother, but she didn't know that Concubine Xu was secretly hating her. She didn't realize that Chen's stupid gourd actually raised such a cunning daughter. She didn't take them seriously for the time being. She suffered this great loss today and had to say, "Isn't thank the third girl yet."
"Thank you, my third sister." Chen Zi gritted her teeth and took it and said.
Chen Jin shook his head, returned to Concubine Chen, lowered his head and stopped talking.
"Okay, let's go back." King Rui said.
Concubine Xu first saluted with her two daughters and left. Concubine Chen took Chen Jin and walked behind Concubine Xu and arrived at the gate of the main courtyard. Concubine Xu said with a smile, "I underestimated Sister Chen in the past." After that, he turned around and left.
Concubine Chen held her daughter's hand. At this time, Chen Jin was not as calm as before. Not only did her face turn pale, but her little hands were cold. "You child..." Concubine Chen felt very distressed and had to pull her to walk to the place where she lives.
After everyone left, Princess Rui looked at her daughter and said, "Today I will punish you to copy three "Female Rings".
"Yes." Chen Qi didn't dare to say more and agreed.
"Go." Princess Rui said.
Chen Qi bowed to King Rui and Princess Rui and stepped down. Princess Rui looked at King Rui and said, "The prince is too frivolous today and is unfair."
King Rui also felt regretful, but he was embarrassed to admit it. However, Princess Rui said it and stopped mentioning it, "Xu was too petty to teach Eryao, and she was not as sensible as the third girl."
"Why would the princess bring her to her?" King Rui also felt that this was the case. Although Xu was gentle and had a low background, he was not able to teach his daughter.
Princess Rui sighed, "I am going to be busy with Qi'er's affairs recently. How can I have time? Besides, I have brought the second girl, the fourth girl and the fifth girl or not?"
"Why would you rather send Brother Hao to the princess?" King Rui thought of Xu's youngest son. If the youngest son was ruined, he would regret it.
Princess Rui has two sons herself, so she can't take this trouble, but she can't say this explicitly, just said, "My good prince, just let me rest. Brother Hao is so old, and he is just when he can't live without his mother. When he gets older, he will be taken to the front yard. Then the prince and the master will teach him personally, so it's not much different."
King Rui thought that this was the case and stopped talking about anything.
