==Chapter 20==
No one can answer this question for her, and Yao Niang cannot ask anyone else, so she can only keep it silently in her heart.
Just as she was deep in thought, a little girl hurriedly ran in from the door: "Something happened outside."
"What happened?"
"Over at Liuchun and Liuchun Pavilion, Concubine Hu wants to hit Cuizhu with a plank..."
"What's the matter, you want to hit the green bamboo board?"
Everyone looked at each other in confusion, but Yao Niang couldn't help but feel nervous and had bad guesses.
"I heard that Cuizhu stole Concubine Hu's jewelry and was discovered by Qiaoer. The hairpin was given to Concubine Hu by His Highness and she liked it very much, so Concubine Hu was furious..."
Someone couldn't help but interjected: "This Cuizhu is from Xiaoquan Courtyard. How can Concubine Hu be beaten whenever she wants..." As he spoke, this person couldn't continue talking.
Concubine Hu is the master, while Cuizhu is just a wet nurse. The wet nurse was also a servant, not to mention that Cuizhu was still a slave. Even if she was a commoner, as Hu's concubine, she would be beaten to death, and she wouldn't even have room to cry out for injustice.
"How about we go take a look?"
Both of them could not help but be curious and wanted to see what happened. Even though it seems like a nanny, this nanny has a lot involved. First of all, she is someone sent from Siyi Court. Cuizhu’s biological aunt, Mrs. Cao, is also working in the mansion. Cuizhu and her family are all the concubines of the princess. Not to mention that Cuizhu is also the nanny of the little princess.
Concubine Hu is planning to confront the princess. She has long thought that something will happen to Concubine Hu, and it will cause a big fuss.
*
In Liuchun Pavilion, Cuizhu was pinned to the ground, looking extremely embarrassed.
The bright red shirt was covered with dirty dust, his hair was messed up, and his face was a mess, but his eyes were fixed on a person in the crowd.
This person is Mei Zhi.
Cui Zhu never expected that Mei Zhi would harm her so much. She also didn’t know how Concubine Hu’s hairpin appeared on her body. She had been talking to Mei Zhi before. But no matter how she explained, no one believed her. Even besides Mei Zhi, several other servants came forward to prove that she had indeed sneaked into Concubine Hu's room.
Cuizhu knew that this was a deliberate move against her.
In fact, this situation is very rough. How could she enter Concubine Hu's room and steal her hairpin! She is so poor that she would do this!
No one paid attention to this. The master said you did it, so you just did it.
There were many people standing around, most of them were servants from the Liuchun Pavilion, and some were from the small courtyard. Most of the people in the small courtyard stood at the back, looking at Cuizhu who was pressed to the ground with expressions of regret.
In fact, everyone understands what Cuizhu understands, but if you are told to go anywhere but to the Liuchun Pavilion, something will happen.
Yao Niang is also here.
She knew clearly that she shouldn't come, but she came anyway. She wanted to see what would happen next. You must know that in her previous life, she was punished by Concubine Hu under false pretenses, and she was slapped several times.
I didn’t expect that if I didn’t take the lead in this life, it would be Cuizhu’s turn.
She has a sense of desolation, as if a rabbit is dead and a fox is sad.
"The side concubine said that she would be rewarded with five boards, a small punishment but a big warning." Qiu Ju walked out of the house and stood on the steps.
After all, Concubine Hu still didn't dare to kill Princess Jin's people.
Someone must be there. After a while, two women came over carrying stools and boards in their hands.
Cuizhu's mouth had long been blocked because of the noise. The mother-in-law tied her up on a stool and said: "It's just a five-piece, it can't kill anyone. I'll teach you a lesson in the future." ”
The board hit Cuizhu again and again, and only a muffled sound could be heard.
Yao Niang didn’t look again and left quietly.
She was in a bad mood, remembering what happened to her in her previous life.
*
The five-board board is really not heavy, and the green bamboo can still get down and walk after being hit by the board.
Before Concubine Hu could say anything, Aunt Mu ordered someone to send Cuizhu away.
To this day, Cuizhu is no longer suitable to stay in the small courtyard. Not to mention whether her hands and feet are clean, there are already many nannies around the little princess. One less green bamboo will save a lot of trouble.
It is obvious to the naked eye that Cuizhu is a trouble now, and Nanny Mu will not let the trouble stay with the little princess.
Yao Niang suddenly realized that maybe she was sent away like this in her previous life. It doesn’t matter whether you made a mistake or not, whether you were wronged or not, the people above will not care about all this. They will only judge whether you go or stay fundamentally, and they don’t care about how this will change the other person’s life. .
If Yao Niang simply relied on the lessons she learned in her previous life to avoid all this, then she had a profound understanding after witnessing what happened to Cuizhu with her own eyes.
A kind of understanding of the thinking mode of superiors.
She thought Cuizhu would definitely come back again, if the princess's thoughts were as she suspected.
Sure enough, Cuizhu came back the next day and was sent to Liuchun Pavilion by Princess Jin's order.
Princess Jin said that Concubine Hu taught her well, so she sent this useless girl to Concubine Hu for training. Although her situation is completely different from that of Yao Niang in her previous life, she has reached the same destination in the same journey.
What will happen to Cuizhu?
Yao Niang shudders whenever she thinks about it.
How could she think that the princess was a good person in her previous life!
Unexpectedly, when Cuizhu came to the small courtyard to pack her things, Yao Niang bumped into her and saw her smiling.
When Cuizhu saw Yao Niang, his face was full of pride: "Nanny Su stayed up all night yesterday, don't you need to rest today?"
Seeing such green bamboo, Yao Niang didn’t know what to say.
"This person is just different from other people. Some people are born to be slaves, and some people are destined to be different." After leaving these words, Cuizhu hugged his things and left, leaving Yao behind. My mother looked at her back and couldn't calm down for a long time.
At first Yao Niang didn’t understand why Cuizhu was so proud, but she soon understood. Maybe everyone's pursuit is different. She saw a kind of joy in Cuizhu's smile.
She thought that the princess must have said something to Cuizhu.
The development of things has been completely different from that in the previous life, and Yao Niang finally no longer has to worry about making the same mistakes again. But all this did not make her relax her vigilance. On the contrary, she became even more cautious. Of course, this is something to say later.

In Siyi's courtyard, after someone took the green bamboo away, Zhou's mother said to Princess Jin: "Madam, this green bamboo has now been regarded as a thorn in the side of Liuchun Pavilion. If it is blocked, I'm afraid nothing will happen. Function."
Princess Jin, who was on the imperial concubine's couch, was looking down at a book. After hearing these words, she looked up at Zhou's mother and said, "Nanny, I didn't point out what role she could play."
"That..."
Mother Zhou quickly understood that Princess Jin was just causing trouble for Concubine Hu.
With the loss of Cuizhu, the momentum at Liuchun Pavilion could not be suppressed, which meant that the chess they had planned for a long time was in vain.
"Did you forget that there is another one?" Princess Jin smiled.
Under the sunlight, her face was a little more rosy, but she still had a morbid beauty. He is obviously extremely weak, but there is a wise light between his eyebrows that no one can ignore.
Princess Jin deserves to be born in the Duke of Xu's palace, and her mental skills are first-rate, but she is hampered by her body. Whenever she thinks of all this, Zhou’s mother can’t help but sigh.
"You mean the wet nurse named Su?" Zhou's mother hesitated.
Princess Jin nodded: "Didn't nanny realize that this girl is extremely smart? With Cuizhu's escape, she hid herself and quickly established a foothold next to the little princess. She is much smarter than this Cuizhu, I I underestimated her before."
"But the servant didn't seem to have any intention of climbing a high branch. I heard that the nanny named Su was very low-key on weekdays. She never took half a step across the courtyard and rarely went out in the courtyard, not in the room. , that is, serving the little princess."
"Have you forgotten His Highness? Your Highness often visits the little princess."
Mother Zhou was still in a daze, but Princess Jin said again: "What woman wouldn't be happy with a man like Your Highness?" As she said that, she smiled with a lowered eyebrow, giving people the illusion of being unparalleled in elegance.
That's not the case. The King of Jin has a dragon, Zhang and phoenix appearance, jade and metal appearance, a dignified appearance, and a noble birth, so he was born to be a prince. When she was in Beijing, there were countless noble ladies competing for her, but Princess Jin took the lead.
Just——
Actually, Mother Zhou has always wanted to ask something but did not dare to ask: Princess, are you Your Highness Xinyue?
If you are happy, why do you never take the initiative to get close to His Highness? If you are not happy, why are you having a lively fight with Concubine Hu?
It’s just that Zhou’s mother didn’t dare to say it. She remembered a time before Princess Jin got married, when the princess almost died.
It was Princess Jin who sought death herself.
Mother Zhou always thought that Princess Jin didn’t want to marry Prince Jin because she might have a crush. However, as Princess Jin’s nanny, she knew that her own princess had never looked at any man differently when she was still in the boudoir.
This doubt has been buried in Zhou’s mother’s heart for more than ten years, and may remain buried for a lifetime.

In the Liuchun Pavilion, Concubine Hu looked at Cuizhu walking around in front of her with a gloomy face.
In fact, Cuizhu's attitude was very humble, but in Concubine Hu's eyes, she could see the complacency and sinister intentions hidden underneath her humble face.
Concubine Hu even saw a face through her, that was Princess Jin's face.
A face that is cold and pale, with a look of indifference between the brows that contains the greatest malice. She could even see Princess Jin smiling at herself, her smile full of contempt and sarcasm.
No matter how favored you are, it doesn’t matter if you are allowed to be kneaded by me. Your so-called favor is all fake, fake... Without His Highness, you are nothing...
Concubine Hu couldn't help but shudder, feeling even more anxious.
She can't go on like this!
Concubine Hu suddenly stood up.
"Empress!"
Taohong called out urgently and looked at her in surprise. Apparently her movement was too sudden, causing Taohong to misunderstand something.
Concubine Hu looked at Taohong and became even more angry. Is she such an irrational person?
But she didn't explain anything, but took a deep breath and said, "I'm going to see the little princess."
Taohong breathed a sigh of relief.
Now Liuchun Pavilion can no longer withstand anything.
*
In the east room, Aunt Mu sat on the Arhat bed with red sandalwood and sapphire landscapes, and Concubine Hu sat opposite her.
Yu Yan brought two cups of tea over and placed them on the small table, but Concubine Hu just held them up for show and did not drink them. It can be seen that Concubine Hu has not slept well these days, and her beautiful eyes are slightly green.
Compared to Concubine Hu who was hesitant to speak, Grandma Mu was sitting there drinking tea and seemed not to care why Concubine Hu was here.
After all, it was Concubine Hu who couldn't keep her temper. She hesitated for a long time and said her purpose: "Mommy, I miss the little princess a little. Can you take the little princess to Liuchun Pavilion?" Spend the night?"
Unlike her flamboyance when facing Princess Jin, she was even humble when facing Aunt Mu.
Concubine Hu is not stupid. She knows who Aunt Mu represents, and she even knows her identity - the nun who was in charge of Concubine Xian De. After Concubine De passed away, she served the King of Jin. , King Jin respected her very much and treated her as an elder.
This alone is enough for Concubine Hu to be respectful to Aunt Mu.
Unlike Princess Jin, Aunt Mu belongs to Prince Jin.
