Chapter 267 The side concubine is always just a concubine
At this time, a father-in-law came in and saluted Feng Yuanqing: "Your Highness, Prince Lan, don't miss the auspicious moment. Please go with me to the inn to welcome the bride!"
Prime Minister Qi glanced at Feng Yuanqing, and when he saw Feng Yuanqing nodding, he waved to the father-in-law to leave.
When the father-in-law turned to leave, Prime Minister Qi suddenly stopped him: "Wait a minute!"
The father-in-law immediately stopped and turned around: "Does Prime Minister Qi have any other instructions?"
"Are you just going to the inn to welcome the bride? What about Jiang Shaolan, the daughter of the Jiang family?"
The father-in-law said matter-of-factly: "Of course I just went to the post house to welcome Princess Lan. The daughter of the Jiang family is just a side concubine. After the princess enters through the front door and pays homage to her parents, the side concubine can enter through the side door and then go to Lan."
The princess has tea."
Qi Xiang frowned.
"Xiang Qi, you are also the prime minister of Shangzhou after all. When have you ever seen the emperor's concubine need to go to the wedding? Even Qi Guifei entered the palace through the side entrance. Throughout the ages, except for the main concubine, who can enter the main entrance, all other concubines can enter the palace.
It’s just a concubine! I can only go sideways, doesn’t Prime Minister Qi understand this?” The father-in-law glanced at Prime Minister Qi and said sarcastically.
Qi Xiang's face darkened.
How could he have forgotten this? He originally thought that by becoming in-laws with Jiang Zhong, he would be able to help him in the future, but in the end, he forgot that his concubine was just a concubine.
"Okay, I'll take my leave. Please hurry up and get ready." The father-in-law snorted coldly and walked away.
The expression on Qi Xiang's face was unpredictable.
Feng Yuanqing came over and patted him on the shoulder: "Grandpa, don't think too much. You are a smart man. You know best what to choose."
After saying that, Feng Yuanqing left.
Qi Xiang was left sitting alone on a chair with a gloomy expression on his face.
He is a smart man, and Feng Yuanqing is right.
Feng Yuanqing's ambition has become obvious.
He is no longer the ignorant boy he was before.
His brain was already working.
Qi Xiang sighed and had no choice but to cooperate with Feng Yuanqing.
Today was the wedding banquet of the Second Prince's Mansion. He had to brace himself and not let the wedding banquet be ruined!
At this moment, the Jiang Mansion was also in a state of chaos.
Mrs. Jiang was instructing the maids to dress Jiang Shaolan, and all the maids were very busy.
"Miss, today is a special day. You have to look beautiful and don't make your face dirty!"
Jiang Shaolan's face was very pale, her eye sockets were sunken, and there was no blood on her face. She looked like her blood had been drained, and her whole body was skinny.
She has been looking forward to today since the emperor granted her a marriage. Who would have thought that her father came to tell her a few days ago that one of Feng Yuanqing's maids was pregnant.
This made her extremely jealous!
Why!
She is a dignified daughter of the Jiang family, even if she is not as good as a princess, she is actually not as good as a little maidservant!
Strong unwillingness flashed across Jiang Shaolan's face, and she clenched her fists tightly.
Someone came to the palace just now, saying that she could not wear red and had to wear pink, and that Feng Yuanqing would not come to the magistrate to marry her, so she had to go in in a sedan chair through the side door of the Second Prince's Mansion.
The most important thing is that she also has to give tea to Princess Lan!
Jiang Shaolan's face turned even paler at the thought of giving tea to Princess Zi Chu, and she wished she could rush out immediately to question Feng Yuanqing, but she couldn't.
She has to be patient!
"Mother, I..."
Mrs. Jiang glared at her: "Don't talk nonsense. Today is your special day. Don't let dad know, otherwise he will blame you again."
Jiang Shaolan shook her head bitterly: "I know, mother, don't worry!"
The maids who had been waiting nearby brought a basin, Jiang Shaolan washed her face, and then asked the maids to comb her hair.
She looked at her haggard self in the mirror and suddenly asked: "Mother, do you think Feng Yuanqing will worship with me?"
Mrs. Jiang was stunned for a moment, then sighed softly and said: "Daughter, you are just his concubine, I guess you are not needed."
"Then I will have to watch him love and be happy with another woman under his nose in the future?" Jiang Shaolan said, with a sarcastic smile on her lips.
"Lan'er, don't think too much. If Feng Yuanqing takes that position, there will be more concubines below. Are you jealous? What you have to do is to capture the man's heart!" Mrs. Jiang comforted her earnestly.
Jiang Shaolan lowered his head and said nothing.
"Okay, don't think about it, look at how thin you have become these days!" Mrs. Jiang looked distressed.
She has been worried about her daughter's condition these past few days, but she didn't dare to ask her daughter for fear of backfire. Seeing her daughter's haggard appearance now really makes her heartbroken.
Jiang Shaolan raised her head, forced a smile, and said to Mrs. Jiang: "Mother, don't worry, I am the legitimate daughter of the Jiang family. Although I am not as good as the princess of Xichu in terms of status, there has been no concubine who has been the queen since ancient times.
position, not to mention if I can give birth to a son and a half daughters, they will all be the eldest sons."
"Yes, it's best if you think so! You are now Feng Yuanqing's concubine, and you will also be able to occupy a high position in the harem in the future. You can't be depressed because of this matter, understand?" Mrs. Jiang warned?
road.
"My daughter knows, don't worry, mother." Jiang Shaolan nodded slightly, secretly making up his mind.
She will never give up on this matter!
Jiang Shaolan had a plan in mind, and the expression on her face suddenly improved a lot. She dressed up in the mirror, and then Shi Shiran left the main room.
She walked all the way to the door of the house and saw the sedan chair waiting at the door.
With the help of her maid, Jiang Shaolan sat down in the sedan chair, and the curtain of the sedan chair fell.
"Get up!" the sedan bearer gave the order, and the sedan immediately started moving.
At the inn, Zi Chu also changed into his wedding clothes under the service of his maid.
Today is her wedding day, and she also specially wore a red dress embroidered with butterflies and peonies. The hem of the skirt was outlined with complicated patterns with gold thread, which looked gorgeous and delicate.
Zi Chu's makeup is very light and she looks very pure.
"Princess, it's almost time, Prince Lan is already waiting outside the door." The maid reminded.
"Okay, I understand." Zi Chu nodded, stood up, and walked out of the door.
She stood in the middle of the yard, looking into the distance, with a little less expectation in her heart. Maybe it was because the person she was marrying was not Feng Yuanchen, so she felt a little disappointed!
The entrance of the inn was not very lively, but instead seemed extremely deserted.
Feng Yuanqing saw Zi Chu coming out and greeted him.
"Let's go." After Feng Yuanqing said this, he reached out to hold Zi Chu.
Zi Chu slightly avoided his touch and said calmly: "You get on the horse first, I can walk to the sedan by myself."
With that said, she turned around and asked her maid to help her walk to the wedding sedan.
