==Chapter 157==
"Thank you, Your Highness."
"Get in the car quickly." Prince Qing retracted his hand.
Concubine Han glanced at her elbow with some disappointment, said nothing, nodded and got into the car.
In another carriage, Princess Qing watched this scene through the window, her eyes twitching.
Next to her, Zhuzhu pulled Princess Qing's sleeve, "Mom, I'm sleepy."
Princess Qing held her in her arms and said softly: "I'm sleepy, I'll hold you to sleep." She closed the car curtain with one hand and stopped looking at everything.
When he arrived at Prince Qing's Mansion, Prince Qing got off his horse and came to the carriage. He first picked up Brother Yan, and then went to hold Zhuzhu. Zhuzhu slept like a little pig and didn't even wake up when she got off the car. Princess Qing held Brother Yan's hand and followed Prince Qing inside.
"Ahhh..."
A female voice came from behind, it was Concubine Han's voice.
When he turned around, he saw her stroking her calf with one hand, her brows furrowed, and her face looking painful. There was a girl beside her, looking at her at a loss.
King Qing couldn't help but stop. When Concubine Han saw King Qing looking over, she immediately called out with tears in her eyes: "Your Highness, my foot seems to be twisted..."
Prince Qing looked at her hesitantly, and then looked at Princess Qing.
Princess Qing's face was expressionless, and Concubine Han over there screamed in pain again. Prince Qing said hesitantly: "She is pregnant...I will send her back and I will come back..."
Princess Qing reached out to take Zhuzhu, said nothing, lowered her head and left.
Seeing the people leaving in groups, Prince Qing's eyes flashed with a hint of depression. He didn't walk over slowly until the other party called him again.
"Mother." Brother Yan called with some worry. He only calls his mother concubine in front of others, and usually calls his mother.
"What's wrong?" Princess Qing looked at him with a smile.
"It's nothing." Brother Yan shook his head, hiding the worry in his eyes.

Except for having a free day in the mansion on the second day of the Lunar New Year, starting from the third day of the Lunar New Year, King Jin took Yaoniang and Xiaobao out to visit New Year's Eve and have banquets.
The first one to go was naturally Ning Guogong's Mansion, which was bustling for a whole day, followed by Prince Hui's Mansion, Prince An's Mansion, Prince Dai's Mansion and Prince Yong's Mansion. The former is to pay homage, and as for the Prince Lu's Mansion, Prince Qing's Mansion, etc., one can only go to the palace upon invitation. Going to other people's houses was all about being vigilant and just looking around. For several days in a row, Yao Niang was very tired. It was not until someone from Prince Qing's house came to invite her that she finally showed a smile.
On that day, I slept until midnight, got up, cleaned up, had breakfast, and prepared my carriage and horses to go to Prince Qing's Mansion.
Prince Qing’s Mansion is no different from the other mansions, they are all beaming with joy. The servants were dressed up nicely and had smiles on their faces. Even if there was a funeral in the family at this time, they had to wait until the New Year was over.
Of course King Qing invited not only King Jin, but several of his brothers.
Except for King Hui, who did not bring his concubine, all the other kings came with their concubines. On the other hand, King Jin took Yaoniang with him. Everyone now knows what happened in Prince Jin's palace. Princess Jin fell out of favor and was sent to Zhuangzi to recuperate. Seeing that King Jin was used to taking Yaoniang around, Emperor Hongjing didn't say anything. , others won’t say much.
At this time, it was naturally festive and lively, and Prince Qing's Mansion also invited a troupe to sing in the hall. Nowadays, it is popular to go to the theater in Beijing, and anyone who can sing can hum along with a few lines from the opera. Yao Niang didn't like it. The martial arts opera felt too noisy, and she couldn't understand the literary opera. I patiently listened to it a few times, but each time I felt dizzy.
Talking to King Jin, King Jin said that she didn’t listen enough.
Not to mention, when Yao Niang was still at home, she really had not heard a few operas. That is to say, when she was a child, there were two times when wealthy families in the county invited opera troupes to sing temple fairs. After listening to them twice, there were huge crowds of people. Not even a single shadow was seen.
The banquet has not yet arrived at noon, and everyone is sitting in the theater building watching the play.
Children are naturally indispensable on such occasions. There are more than 20 children from the eight palaces in total. The older ones play with the older ones, and the younger ones play with the younger ones. As for the older ones, they always stay with their father or mother.
For example, Zhao Zuo, the eldest son of Prince Hui's family, and Princess Rongxia, the eldest daughter of Prince An, who is fourteen years old. Princess Rongxia looks like Princess An, with a round face and fine features, a demure look, and doesn't talk much. If no one talks to her, most of them sit beside Princess An in silence.
A few women were chatting, and the subject of Princess Rongxia's marriage came to mind.
Princess Wu was the youngest among the princesses, but she was the most talkative. Princess Rongxia was so embarrassed that she wanted to hide from the questions, but she still refused to shut up. Yaoniang and Princess Qing looked at each other and didn't interrupt. They sat silently and listened.
The men sat on the other side, separated by a passage. From here you can clearly see the situation over there, but you can't hear what's being said.
On the other end, several half-year-old children came and whizzed away, running upstairs and downstairs. It's completely different from what I usually see in the palace. Most of the time, he is just serving food to others, knowing that he can't make trouble in the palace, but he can make trouble when he comes out.
It is also a festive time to celebrate the New Year. At this time, taboos are important. Generally, even if the children are naughty, no adults will scold them.
Seeing that Princess An and Princess Wu were facing each other, as if they were about to quarrel, Princess Qing and Yaoniang looked at each other, stood up and excused themselves to go to the palace.
The two of them left the theater.
The weather is nice today. Although it is still cold, there is sunshine.
Brother Yan, Xiaobao, Zhuzhu and Yueyue were playing in the flower garden in front of the theater, followed by several maids and women. Seeing Yu Chan watching from the side, Yao Niang left with great relief.
While Princess He Qing chose a path to walk, Yao Niang asked in a low voice: "What's wrong? I think you seem to be in a bad mood these few times?"
Princess Qing wanted to hide it at first, but she was probably depressed. She opened her lips, lowered her head and looked at the hem of her skirt: "She is pregnant again."
Pregnant? Yao Niang was surprised, until she saw the lonely look on Princess Qing's face, she hurriedly put it away in embarrassment.
"How long has it been, and that matter is over?" Yao Niang simply didn't know what to say. Prince Qing seemed to be a wise and powerful man, so why did he mess around with him so much?
Princess Qing smiled bitterly: "This is her usual method, pretending to be pitiful. She always has a way to win his sympathy. I used to lie to myself. The prince only sympathized with her and pitied her, not that he liked her. Now I suddenly feel unsure..."
Yao Niang didn’t know how to persuade her, so she could only say dryly: “Don’t think too much.”
"Sister-in-law Wu, I didn't think too much. I thought very clearly during this period. You probably don't know that I can't sleep all night long these days. I think about this every day. I wonder what I am doing Where did I lose? How am I inferior to her? But gradually I realized that I really thought too much. It is natural for a man to have three wives and four concubines. I am jealous because I am jealous. But the problem is that everything was fine before... really , I also want to do what you said, to win over and not give in, but I find it very difficult, especially after going through all the things before, and suddenly it is beyond recognition, and I feel so strange and cold..."
Yao Niang had the urge to cry.
She hoped that Princess Qing would cry rather than murmuring her thoughts in despair. What kind of disappointment can make a woman like a begonia suddenly wither and wither?
Yao Niang couldn't think of it. She tried to think about what if King Jin suddenly changed one day and was no longer what he was now. His cold tenderness was given to another woman. He did the most intimate thing with that woman and said the same words, and the woman gave him a child...
She felt as if she had fallen into an ice cellar, and she could not help but shiver. She tried to let herself think about it and imagine what would happen to her. She felt that she would definitely go crazy, she would definitely go crazy.
After all, she was so fond of him that she wanted to dominate him and would not let anyone else.
She likes King Jin?
Yes, she likes it, very early on.
"Seventh younger brother and sister, if you don't think about anything else, you should also think about Brother Yan and Zhuzhu." Yao Niang felt that her comfort was particularly weak. She even felt that she was shameless, because she herself could not be indifferent, and How can you ask others.
But besides this, is there any other way to go?
This world is so harsh on women. If the daughter-in-law of an ordinary common man takes a concubine, she can only watch helplessly, let alone the royal family. For the royal family, this is a matter of course and should be given priority. The most important thing is to produce heirs. Even if there are fewer women around the prince, the superiors will take the initiative to reward a few.
Yao Niang has not forgotten that there are many women in the back house of Prince Jin's Mansion. Even if Prince Jin has never touched them, they are still his nominal concubines.
This is a life-and-death war without swords. She dominates, and others are destined to be left alone. If others don't want to be left alone, they have to fight. If she is defeated, others will come forward. After living two lifetimes, Yao Niang had a thorough understanding of the dispute over the back house for the first time.
Yao Niang was so flustered that she didn’t want to think about it anymore.
After Princess Qing smiled faintly, she said: "I was just thinking about Brother Yan and Zhuzhu, otherwise I would have asked for them by now."
As he was talking, a maid suddenly came over hurriedly: "Princess, something happened to the young master, the young master."
Princess Qing's face suddenly turned pale.
*
Xiaobao and Brother Yan were playing with the little native dog named Doudou with their two little girls.
We were having a good time, but Brother Xuan, that skinny monkey, called a few people around his age to come here and play a game of officers and soldiers catching bandits.
They roared in and roared away, each holding soft branches as swords in their hands. The bandits and the officers and soldiers were fighting in full swing.
Seeing that it was getting more and more noisy, Xiaobao wanted to move somewhere. He told Brother Yan and the others, and the four of them took Doudou and planned to stay away.
The bandit Brother Xuan, who was walking to avoid the officers and soldiers, accidentally bumped into Brother Yan.
The two are about the same size, but brother Xuan is stronger and brother Yan is weaker. Brother Yan was knocked to the ground, and Brother Xuan was caught by the officers and soldiers behind him because he blocked him.
Brother Xuan is the last person in the bandit group. Catching him is considered a victory. Several brothers who were playing the role of officers and soldiers burst into cheers, while the bandit group complained that Brother Xuan was caught because he couldn't run. He was obviously the fastest runner.
Seeing that Brother Xuan had lost and was being complained about like this again, at the same time he remembered the revenge of the last time he was beaten, and his face turned red with anger. He dropped the branch in his hand and rushed towards Brother Yan. .
"It's all your fault!"
As soon as they saw Brother Xuan fighting with someone, the bandit group, as well as the officers and soldiers nearby all clapped their hands in applause.
The maid next to her immediately wanted to come forward, but was scolded by one of the 'robbers': "Stand away, this is a battle that belongs to us men."
Hey, you're a little kid, his hair hasn't even grown yet, but he can fight.
It was obvious that Brother Yan couldn't defeat Brother Xuan, so Xiaobao wanted to go up and help. Before he could go over, someone said that he was too weak to win with more than less. Xiaobao was too lazy to pay attention to these little brats and still wanted to step forward. Brother Xuan's accomplices in the bandit group rushed forward.
"Fight me if you want."
Boys seem to be particularly passionate, especially when there are people around them cheering and slapping them. They now dare to do things that they usually didn't dare to do. Yueyue and Zhuzhu were circling around anxiously, asking the maids to step forward to stop them. Several maids also wanted to step forward, but were deliberately blocked by the bandits and officers and soldiers, and while doing so, they scolded the slaves for disturbing the situation.
Yu Chan is also watching, but it is not convenient for her to take action in this situation. If she takes action, her slaves will help beat the young master. And from what she saw, the little one who was fighting Xiaobao, the shortest and the fastest, was not the young master's hand.
The noise outside attracted attention inside. The second floor where the men were sitting happened to be closest to here. An Wang and others came to the window together and looked down.
Wang An chuckled and said: "Lao Liu, your son is actually a demon king. Why is he fighting with others again?"
Not only did King Lu not feel embarrassed, he actually looked proud: "This boy is very energetic. I plan to teach him martial arts in another year. But second brother, your statement is wrong. We used to fight like this when we were children. How come it’s my son’s turn to become a demon king?”
This is true. These princes often fought together when they were young. As long as they didn't use weapons, no one would stop them. Emperor Hongjing would not let anyone stop him. If he could win, he would fight. If he could not win, he would be beaten. Because of this, several princes have good martial arts skills when they grow up.
Except for King Yong, of course, but King Yong has been a thief since he was a child. He never takes the initiative to provoke his brothers, and usually plays dirty tricks.
So when King An and the others saw such a scene, instead of stopping them, they stood by the window and watched.
King Lu said to King Jin: "Fifth brother, the one in your family is still young, but he can fight with the one in fourth brother's family."
The King of Jin was too lazy to care about King Lu.
King Lu was also used to the dead face of King Jin, so he turned his head to provoke King Qing: "Old Qi, I think your boy is no match for my boy."
No, Brother Yan is thin and Brother Xuan is strong. It seems that Brother Yan is several months older than Brother Xuan, but he is no match for Brother Xuan. Brother Xuan pinned him down, but Brother Yan could still fight back, but it was a bit difficult.
But Brother Yan was also stubborn, so he didn’t cry.
Prince Qing smiled a little reluctantly, "This child has been thin and thin since he was a child. He is not as strong as Sixth Brother's family."
King Lu laughed and said, "Just be strong. You won't suffer any loss when fighting against others in the future."
King Lu's smile reminded King Qing of some things from his childhood. He and King Lu were the closest, and when he was young, King Lu pinned him down and beat him the most. My father didn't want anyone to interfere, so if my fifth brother wanted to help him, he could only watch from the sidelines.
He was beaten many times, and each time he went back, he studied Kung Fu more diligently. Unfortunately, King Lu was extremely talented, and he was the most skilled in martial arts among the princes except King Jin. While he was learning, the other party was also learning. Because he was not favored in the palace, the martial arts master did not teach him carefully, so he could never defeat King Lu.
Now his son can't beat King Lu's son. Brother Yan is obviously older than Brother Xuan.
Prince Qing felt disappointed. Brother Yan has been weak since he was a child. This is something he is born with and cannot be changed at all. He would like to have another son with Jirou, but unfortunately Jirou has been silent since giving birth to Zhuzhu.
Somehow he thought of Brother Sheng. The child was very strong since he was born. He's big and strong. He's only a little over a year old, but he's so skinny all day that he can barely lift the roof of the house.
Concubine Han said that when Brother Sheng gets older, she will let him learn martial arts from her. Although Prince Qing did not respond, he was actually willing in his heart. He even thought about how to carefully train Brother Sheng more than once.
He knew that Jirou would definitely be unhappy again, but if Brother Yan hadn't failed to live up to his expectations...
Just when King Qing fell into a trance, a sudden sound of horror came from downstairs.
"Seeing blood..."
"The young master's head was broken..."
The author has something to say: Princess Qing has this kind of mentality, so there won’t be many plots in Prince Qing’s Mansion.
