Chapter 1708 Concubine (24)
For the concubines in the palace, the empress sits in the harem, and the emperor takes care of concubines Xian and Shu, who are the concubines of the second and third princes.
When they were stationed for lunch at noon, Xia Ling heard people say that the third prince had a dispute with the fourth prince, and Sima Li was laughed at very much.
The third prince has a willful temper, with him around, Sima Sui will never have a good life.
Xia Ling had expected it a long time ago.
Then, on the next day, when the team set off again, Xia Ling suddenly found that there was an extra person beside their carriage.
Sima Lian rode his horse, instead of following the royal team in front, he was at the end, staying with General Feng outside Xia Ling and Mrs. Feng's carriage.
Those who can accompany him are all prominent figures in the capital, Sima Li's behavior is too sensitive.
General Feng's face was blackened, and Mrs. Feng's face was also blackened.
A dignified prince sticks to their side like a bullshit plaster, can he still have some face...
Feng Yan is a married man now, Sima Lian doesn't want fame, Feng Yan wants it too!
General Feng was called by Mrs. Feng to scold him for a few words. General Feng turned around and went to the emperor to cry and complain that his own carriage was not very easy to use and could not keep up with the speed of the royal family, so it needed to be repaired.
The emperor has many eyes and ears, so he naturally knows why General Feng is crying so much.
The emperor called Sima Li back and scolded him.
The next day, everyone knew that Sima Lian had been scolded by the emperor and lost all face.
Sima Li returned to the front of the ranks from outside Xia Ling's carriage.
From the beginning to the end, Sima Li didn't show any extra attention to Xia Ling, but sitting in the carriage, Xia Ling occasionally lifted the curtain to look out, and he could find Sima Li secretly observing the carriage.
That kind of handsome and sinister eyes are as heavy as vines growing from a vicious place.
Sima Lian's reputation was completely ruined in the circle, but he also gained tranquility, and the third prince no longer troubled him.
Being reprimanded by the emperor face to face, Sima Lian's chance of seizing the heir apparent was completely wiped out.

In late July, the mighty summer resort team finally arrived at the Mountain Resort.
The courtyards here are all high-walled courtyards, with palaces and courtyards.
The emperor, concubines, and princes live in the palace, and the ministers are close to each other. They live in order one by one according to their grades.
Xia Ling and Mrs. Feng live in the second-class courtyard, which can be regarded as the treatment of General Feng's extremely talented ministers.
"Be careful when you go out." Mrs. Feng told Xia Ling, "Those women outside are like the front and the back. Our mother and daughter are beautifully dressed, and they are jealous, but with your father here, who Don't dare to do anything. But—”
"It's easy to hide with a sharp gun, but it's hard to defend against a hidden arrow. I'm afraid that some people will play tricks behind their backs. When you leave the yard, don't even drink water outside. Remember to bring a handkerchief with you. If it touches your mouth, you will spit it out in time." Madam Feng looked at it. Spicy, but actually as careful as a hair.
Xia Ling nodded again and again, learning a lot.
The next day, she asked the maidservants to make some handkerchiefs and took them with her.
Of course, she didn't embroider these handkerchiefs by herself, and she didn't leave any marks related to her. They were also taught by Mrs. Feng, so as not to be used by people with good intentions.
On the third day, Xia Ling received a letter from Feng Zhen reporting her safety, which was given to her by General Feng.
Feng Zhen reported the situation of the frontier to General Feng, and wrote a letter to Xia Ling by the way.
Feng Zhen's handwriting is very hard, piercing through the back of the paper.
"Everything is fine, don't read, take care of yourself."
This letter is very short because it is not possible to go through open channels.
However, regardless of the length of the letter, Xia Ling is also very satisfied to be able to think of her when writing the letter and bring her a sentence.
