Chapter 993 Crazy
"I heard that your Crown Prince Chu is coming back soon?" the second princess suddenly asked.
Xia Zihan hummed, "We're on the road now, and we'll probably arrive in May."
The second princess smiled and said, "He has made great achievements this time, but it's a pity that the old lady went there at the wrong time."
Isn't it?
As soon as Chu Jingqi came back, he had to submit a memorial to apply for Ding You to be at home. Even if the emperor wanted to promote him to an official position, he would have to wait until he returned to the court in three years.
And three years later, when Chu Jingqi's achievements have been wiped out by time, how will the emperor promote him to an official position?
Therefore, Mrs. Chu's death at this time was really not the right time. Two months later, after Chu Jingqi returned to Beijing and was promoted to an official position, if Mrs. Chu passed away again, the emperor would not demote her again three years later.
You know, it is easy for military officers to be promoted in troubled times, but in peaceful times, opportunities are rare.
What a pity.
It is not easy to achieve such a great achievement.
The second princess looked regretful.
Xia Zihan thought of Chu Xuanyu's words. In the past few years, their father and son had made great achievements many times and led the Anjun Prince's Mansion too fast. It was time to stop and take a rest. Otherwise, the emperor would be afraid.
No emperor would want to see a minister's reputation in the eyes of the people being higher than that of the emperor.
The emperor is the master of Dasheng and the king of a country. Once he is afraid of someone, it is like a big knife hanging above his head. If he is not careful, the big knife will fall and chop off the head.
Xia Zihan thought about this, his eyes flashed, and he said, "Aqi has rarely been at home with me during the past few years of fighting in the north and south. Now it's just right that Ding You can spend three years at home with me and the children."< br>
"It's true, you can see it clearly." If this were any woman, she might be so regretful.
The second princess admired Xia Zihan's performance very much.
She and Princess Mingzhu did not stay long. They only sat for a short while before saying goodbye and leaving. Princess Qinghui was not worried about the children at home. When the second princess left, Princess Qinghui also said goodbye and stayed. Zeng lived in Prince Anjun's mansion.
Xia Zihan was busy with Mrs. Zhuo in the front to receive the female relatives, while Mrs. Zeng was looking after the two little buns with Nuan Yu in the backyard. When Mrs. Liao and Mrs. Xia Er came, Xia Zihan would take them to the small flower hall to accompany Zeng. Let's talk.
On Mrs. Chu's first seven days, a big event suddenly happened in Prince Rong's mansion.
Concubine Rong Shi suddenly went crazy. She bit people she saw, ate leaves she saw, stepped on flowers with her feet, smashed tables and chairs when she saw them, and cursed and hit the beautiful maids when she saw them. The commotion was turned upside down, and the chickens and dogs were restless.
When Concubine Rong Shizi bit an old woman's ear, many maids and women came forward to pull her away, but they could not pull Concubine Rong Shizi away.
Rong San hurried over and went to stop her, but she bit him on his arm, tearing off a piece of flesh. His face was twisted in pain.
When Princess Rong arrived, she looked at his bloody arms. She felt distressed and angry at the same time. She ordered several tall and strong old ladies behind her to come forward and without any explanation, tied up Princess Rong, who was clutching a handful of leaves and chewing them. .
Concubine Rongshi cursed loudly, scolded Princess Rong, scolded Rong San, scolded Rong San, and scolded everyone around her.
Princess Rong's face turned livid with anger, and she ordered her mother-in-law to gag her. "Mother concubine, what's wrong with Qian'er? Why is she suddenly biting people like crazy? Wasn't she fine last night?" Rong San walked over, covering his bleeding arm.
Princess Rong didn’t know what was going on.
She said with a worried face, "This morning, Qian'er came to say hello to me. I kept her talking for a while. After she left, not long after, a maid came to report that Qian'er had trampled all the flowers in the back garden. Broken, I thought she was angry with you, so I used flowers to vent her anger. I thought I would let her vent her anger and then ask her why she was having trouble with you."
"After a cup of tea, another maid came to report that it was Qian'er who was biting people. One of the maids had a piece of flesh bitten off her face. Only then did I realize something was wrong and hurried over."
When she came, Rong San was injured, and the flowers in the back garden were trampled to pieces. Several of her personal maids were also bitten.
There was a big maid whose face was covered with blood, and a piece of flesh was hanging down on her face, almost ready to fall off.
Looking at this tragic scene, Princess Rong herself was stunned.
The mother and son looked at Concubine Rong Shi and found that her eyes were as ferocious as wild beasts, which made people shudder.
"Mother, Qian'er... has she ever had this disease before?" Rong San asked carefully.
Some girls get mad at home, but their families keep it secret and don't let anyone know about it. When the girls grow up, they marry them off.
Rong San suspected that Concubine Rong Shi's madness was acquired in her mother's family. Otherwise, why would she suddenly become ill this morning when she was fine?
Princess Rong's face suddenly turned gloomy. If Qian'er had a mad disease in her natal family, but her natal family deliberately hid it from her and married her into Prince Rong's palace, what kind of thoughts would it have...
"Send someone to ask a doctor to come back and take a look at her. Remember, Qian'er's identity should not be spread." Princess Rong confessed in a low voice, "I will go back to your maternal grandfather's house."
She wanted to go back to her parents' home to question her niece's madness and why her brother and sister-in-law had hidden it from her and married her niece into Prince Rong's palace.
You must know that as Rong San's eldest concubine, she will be Princess Rong of Prince Rong's Palace in the future. She will have to shoulder the responsibility of the middle minister of the entire Prince Rong's Palace and become the patriarch of the Rong family.
This burden cannot be borne by a person who may go crazy at any time.
Her niece had a cold and needed hundreds of thousands of taels of silver to treat her illness. She admitted this and considered herself unlucky. For the sake of her family, she did not divorce her niece.
However, she could not tolerate her niece's madness. Prince Rong could not marry a madman as his wife, nor could Prince Rong's eldest son and grandson come out of the womb of a mad woman.
When she thought about the treatment for her niece's body cold, she broke down and Prince Rong took out 150,000 taels of silver and gave it to her.
Unexpectedly, it has become a joke now, and her old face was completely beaten by her niece and her mother's family.
Thinking of this, Princess Rong felt angry in her heart and hurried to her parents' house. While Rong San sent someone to ask for a doctor, he ordered his mother-in-law to take off Princess Rong's coat and jewelry and put on a pair of clothes. Put on the maid's clothes.
Princess Rong is his legitimate wife, the eldest concubine of Prince Rong's Mansion, and the future clan wife of Prince Rong's Mansion. Her madness must not be spread, otherwise, Prince Rong's Mansion will become a joke among the people in the capital.
