The daily life of a concubine's daughter

Chapter 263 2 Sister, Please Sit Down

When Shi Yao heard the eunuch's hoarse voice, she knew he was coming for her. Then, thinking of the Duke's Mansion logo on the carriage, she realized that Shi Mingzhu had guessed that the person in the carriage was her.

At this time, the entire Shi family was blamed, and she was the only one who could go out to join in the fun.

The young eunuch then repeated the Fourth Prince's words with a somewhat arrogant look on his face: "It was my Highness who ordered you to follow the carriage of the palace. My wife has something to ask you."

Shi Yao thought about it and couldn't refuse. She could only blame herself for being careless and not hiding the carriage well, or for not hiding it like the Fifth Prince did in a teahouse, a restaurant, or on a tree branch... He could just run away if he wanted to.

It seems that if I want to see Shi Mingzhu's excitement in the future, I will have to ask the Fifth Prince for advice.

Why is it that every time he peeks at someone's wife, her legal husband never catches him in the act?

"Okay, go and reply, young eunuch. I'll follow. Since my elder sister married into the Chengwang Mansion, no one in our mansion has seen her again.

The old lady, the old grandfather, the eldest master, the eldest mistress, including the brothers in the house, and me, are all worried about you. It just so happens that I have seen my eldest sister, so I can go back and tell the old lady and others that I am safe, so that they can rest assured. "

Seeing that Shi Yao was so easy to talk to, the young eunuch nodded slightly, saluted towards Shi Yao, then took his leave and went after the carriage of Prince Cheng's palace.

Jiang Miao seemed to be hesitant to speak, and in the end did not ask anything. He told the coachman to follow behind the carriage of Prince Cheng's mansion.

After turning a few streets, the two groups stopped in front of a teahouse.

It was the same little eunuch who came to pick up Shi Yao. Shi Yao understood and got off the carriage, then went upstairs to see Shi Mingzhu with only Aunt Liu Hua.

Jiang Miao frowned slightly and said, "Cousin, I will go with you."

Shi Yao felt a little warm in her heart. This cousin was really not afraid of anything and was responsible when faced with problems. She smiled and said, "No, I can go alone. Aunt Liu Hua will accompany me. Don't worry, cousin. My elder sister is now the wife of King Cheng. It is not convenient for her to see other men. Even her own brothers are not allowed to see her often."

Aunt Liu Hua nodded slightly, that was indeed the rule.

The royal family’s rules are more numerous and stricter than those of the common people. Otherwise, how can we say that once you enter the palace, it’s like entering a deep ocean?

The eldest girl is a concubine. Even if she is promoted to a concubine in the future, she is still a concubine. According to the law, she is the private property of the prince and the princess. There is no reason for her to return to her parents' home, let alone meet a man outside her.

Jiang Miao couldn't explain it in a simple way, so he just said to Aunt Liu Hua, "Aunt, please be careful. If you encounter anyone who offends my cousin, just shout. I'm downstairs."

Aunt Liu Hua responded, knelt down and bowed, then went upstairs with Shi Yao.

The young eunuch led the two men to a private room.

The first thing she saw upon entering the door was a four-panel floor-to-ceiling screen. Shi Yao vaguely saw two seated figures behind the screen, and several others standing and serving.

The young eunuch took a step back. Shi Yao understood and said through the screen, "Your servant greets His Royal Highness King Cheng and greets... Big Sister."

Shi Mingzhu said calmly: "Come in."

"Yes."

Shi Yao responded, walked around the screen, came in front of Zhou Shao and Shi Mingzhu, bowed again, and greeted them once more.

After paying his respects, he stood up straight, lowered his head, and said nothing, waiting for Shi Mingzhu and Zhou Shao to speak.

After about a minute of silence, Zhou Shaofang sneered, "Is this the sister you mentioned, who is prettier than you? In my opinion, she is plain-looking and not that great."

Shi Mingzhu secretly sneered that a man's words are deceiving. At this time, Zhou Shao was probably bewitched by Shi Yao's beauty and was thinking about how to secretly have an affair with Shi Yao and keep her as a mistress, but he refused to admit it.

Didn't Shi Yao always flaunt her purity and innocence and avoid Zhou Shao everywhere?

She just wanted to give this pair of dogs a chance to fall in love at first sight.

Since her life is ruined, Zhou Shao and Shi Yao won't have an easy life either!

She wanted to bring disgrace upon them, but they couldn't get what they wanted!

Shi Mingzhu said coquettishly: "Your Highness has very high standards. If my sister is not considered a beauty, then there is no beauty in the world. Second sister, come here."

After saying that, she extended her hand towards Shi Yao.

Shi Yao hesitated for a moment, then slowly moved over and handed her hand to Shi Mingzhu.

At this time, Zhou Shao put one arm around Shi Mingzhu's shoulder, and Shi Mingzhu held Shi Yao's hand. The postures and positions of the three people formed a weird and funny picture.

But Zhou Shao was unwilling to let go, and Shi Mingzhu was also unwilling to let go.

"Sister, sit down." Shi Mingzhu spoke softly again, "If you stand, I have to look up at you, and my neck will be tired."

Shi Yao looked around and was about to break free and sit on a stool nearby, but Shi Mingzhu held her hand tightly and refused to let go.

Shi Yao looked at Shi Mingzhu and asked in confusion: "Big sister, if you hold me, where should I sit?"

Zhou Shao looked at the sisters with interest.

Shi Mingzhu smiled amiably and said, "Sister, please take a seat."

Shi Yao hesitated and said, "Then I'll sit down? If it's disrespectful, please don't blame me, sister."

Shi Mingzhu smiled secretly in her heart. This was the first time that Shi Yao was so honest in front of her. It showed that power was really a good thing.

When Shi Yao saw her and the Fourth Prince, didn’t she refuse to kneel?

So today, she would use her power to teach Shi Yao a lesson. Since she refused to kneel, she should sit at her feet like a dog and listen to her teachings.

"Sit down. You can relax in front of me. If I ask you to sit down, just sit down. How can I blame you?"

Shi Yao looked embarrassed, coughed lightly, then turned sideways and sat on Shi Mingzhu's thigh.

Shi Mingzhu: “…”

Zhou Shao: “…”

Zhou Shaoru seemed frightened. He suddenly loosened his hand on Shi Mingzhu's shoulder and leaned away.

Shi Yao tightly grasped Shi Mingzhu's arm with one hand, buried her face in Shi Mingzhu's shoulder, rubbed her shoulder hard, and said with a smile:

“When I was little, I thought it would be nice if I had a sister who could hold me tenderly, play with me, think of me first when it comes to delicious food and fun things, and help me out when I’m bullied.

I had this dream for fifteen years. It was not until I returned to Beijing last year and saw my sister that the sister in my dream finally had a face. Big sister, your embrace is so warm.

In my eyes, my sister is the most beautiful woman in the world. His Royal Highness King Cheng is right. Compared with my sister, I am only a willow. My sister is a great beauty with a gorgeous appearance! Hehe, I am very satisfied to be her younger sister. "

Shi Mingzhu's face gradually changed from shock to shame and anger: "Shi Yao, you..."

"Big sister!" Shi Yao cried, "I couldn't bear to let you go. You suddenly married His Royal Highness King Cheng, and I was not prepared at all. I suddenly lost my only sister.

I really want my sister to come home so that we can play together, have fun together, eat together, and chat together like we used to."

After saying that, Shi Yao leaned over to whisper, "Stop making trouble! Guess, among the palace maids and eunuchs around here, are there any spies of the Imperial Concubine?"

Shi Mingzhu, who looked furious on the outside, suddenly became furious in her heart, and a feeling of frustration spread from the bottom of her heart to her throat.

A few days ago, the imperial concubine summoned her into the palace and punished her to kneel for an hour because she was notorious and had brought disaster to Zhou Shao's reputation.

She couldn't embarrass Shi Yao in public, otherwise Shi Yao would not let it go, and if the news got out, her reputation would be even worse.

Shi Mingzhu was about to push Shi Yao's hands away, but instead she gently hugged Shi Yao and sobbed through gritted teeth, "Second sister...I can't bear to leave you either...I...I..."

Unable to get angry, Shi Mingzhu was at a loss for words.
