Chapter 510: The Truth
Don't look at the young age of the county lord of Minshun, and he has been spoiled since he was a child, and his temperament is a little naΓ―ve and willful. Actually, she's really not stupid. There are some things that children may see more clearly than adults.
When Zhao Mo heard her words, he immediately became vigilant, but his face remained silent, and he continued to smile: "There is already a Chen Liangyuan in the East Palace, and it doesn't matter if there is another Chu Liangyuan. It's just that if the newcomer is the daughter of the Chu family, she will really give birth to a grandson in the future, if the crown princess can win the loyalty of the Chu family, she will have to take care of her, she is really a mother and a child, I am afraid that the Chu family may not be willing, right? The Chu family is different from the Tang family after all. β
The county lord of Minshun snorted: "Of course it is impossible for my mother to agree to go to my mother and keep her son! Even if it is an ordinary palace person, my mother concubine feels that it hurts the heavens and peace, let alone the daughter of the Chu family? Those are the cousin's sisters, who have no status in the family, and are not comparable to ordinary palace people. At that time, even if the mother concubine wants to be cold to her, she still has to look at the face of the Chu family, so wouldn't she have promoted her in vain? It is better to let Chen Liangyuan give birth to a younger brother, and then hug the mother concubine to support her, this is also to improve the status of the younger brother. My father originally meant this, but my mother didn't agree. β
She bit her lip and said in a low voice: "Mama Cen in front of my mother told me in private, saying that when my brother was still there, my mother often took him over to raise him, and even Kaimeng opened it herself, treating him as if he was her own, but my brother was still closer to Chen Liangdi, and he was indifferent to his mother, and he rarely ate the snacks specially prepared for him by his mother. The toy that his mother gave him was specially given, and he happily took it in front of him, and when he returned to the room, he threw it away. In front of the emperor's great-grandmother and grandfather, he never said good things about his mother's concubine. The mother was heartbroken by this and didn't want to raise a second white-eyed wolf. β
Zhao Mo blinked: "At that time, the eldest emperor's grandson was still raised by Chen Liangdi's side, and he only went to the crown princess Niangniang occasionally, so he was naturally easily influenced by his biological mother. But if you eat a trench and grow wise, presumably His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will not repeat the mistakes of the past. β
Lord Minshun sighed in a mature manner: "Hopefully." Anyway, now the mother concubine can't think about it by herself, the emperor's great-grandmother is a little annoyed, the grandmother and aunt came into the palace to persuade her, and the mother concubine doesn't want to see them, Chen Liangdi still stabs her all day long, and Chen Liangyuan doesn't understand anything. Although there is a cousin of the Chu family, she may not be kind, and I can't trust her. The people around the mother concubine felt that the mother concubine had been greatly wronged, so I persuaded me a few more words and said some good things for my father, but those people thought that I was inconsiderate of my mother concubine, which really made people angry!"
Her companions have different backgrounds and temperaments, and not everyone can speak their hearts. Qin Jinchun is okay, but since he quietly mentioned to her the open and secret battle between the Cai family and the Chu family a few days ago, he has not been able to enter the palace again. She wanted to summon someone to chat, and Mama Cen also advised her to accompany her mother and concubine more, not to listen to gossip outside the palace, and to find a playmate, every companion can accompany her. She was depressed in her heart, but she couldn't tell her grandfather and father these words, if she told the Queen Mother, she would probably be even more dissatisfied with the Crown Princess. Now that she finally looked forward to her cousin Zhao Mo, and there were no idle people around to disturb her, she dared to vent all the grievances in her heart with confidence and boldness.
The county lord of Minshun grabbed Zhao Mo's sleeve and whispered a request: "I think the Chu family is wrong, Jinchun told me, that Wei's brother is treacherous, he has been filial piety for several years, and the girl of the Cai family has not complained when she became an old girl in order to wait for him, but he dislikes that people are not the daughters of high-ranking families." If you just want to quit your family, then you should retreat, why do you want to pour dirty water on other people's heads? Isn't the Wei family the daughter-in-law of the side branch of the Chu family? The cousin of the Chu family helped her bully people, she shouldn't have been, and she actually started against the Cai family. What the hell do they want to do?! The cousin of the Chu family talked nonsense in front of her mother, saying that the girl of the Cai family was at fault first, and the Yunyang Marquis Mansion was unreasonable, because the family affair did not succeed and harmed the Wei family, which caused my mother and concubine to also get angry. At the beginning, my mother and concubine liked the Cai family's sister Yuanzhen, and I wanted to say that I would be your daughter-in-law, but now that I was provoked by my cousin, I forgot all my past likes, but I felt that the Yunyang Marquis Mansion was too arrogant, and she didn't take the Chu family in her eyes because she relied on the emperor's grandfather's holy family, and she looked down on her, the princess, who had no son. I think the cousin of the Chu family is not right, but the concubine blames me. I can't control the affairs outside the palace, but the Cai family shouldn't be so angry. The emperor's grandfather also wanted the Marquis of Yunyang to assist his father in stabilizing the court. Brother Mo, can you go to my father and talk to me...... Don't mention the mother, you just need to ask the emperor's great-grandmother to come forward and give something to the divorced Miss Cai, so that people outside don't dare to say bad things about her anymore......"
What else did Zhao Mo not understand at this time? It turned out that the crown princess was sick during this time, and she closed herself off, and even her mother's family didn't want to see her more, but she favored Chu Zhengfang's wife more, but as a result, she was misled by Chu Zhengfang's wife, and she had a wrong impression of the dispute between Cai Shengnan and the Wei family, so that she was also dissatisfied with the Yunyang Marquis Mansion. No wonder she would connive at Chu Zhengfang to squeeze out the Cai family, it turned out that it was all because she was sowing discord.
The crown princess has already had a knot in her heart because she has been childless for many years, and now the prince has changed his mind about having a son-in-law, and has accepted a newcomer into the East Palace to extend the heir. The process of selecting the newcomer to enter the palace did not go through the hands of the crown princess at all, and the people selected were not selected by her. The Queen Mother and the Emperor showed some dissatisfaction with her in this issue, which made her feel even more wronged. At this time, the palace people around her were not sensible, and they only blindly held grievances for her, and the crown princess would only get more and more drilling, and even the Chu family and the Cai family competed for power, and in her heart they became the contempt of the Yunyang Hou family for her childlessness. Among them, Chu Zhengfang and his wife are naturally the culprits, but the crown princess's own thoughts have also reached a rather bad point.
The crown prince is not sure when he will succeed to the throne, can the current crown princess really take on the responsibility of the mother of a country?
Zhao Mo's mood was a little heavy. He lowered his head and comforted the county lord of Minshun a few words, and agreed to her request: "Don't worry, I just went to Yongjiahou Mansion, and Mrs. Yongjiahou is also upset about that Cai girl." I borrowed the name of her old man to ask the Queen Mother for a favor, and I think the Queen Mother will also like that girl. β
Lord Minshun was overjoyed, tilted his head and smiled: "Thank you, Brother Mo." How about I make you a belt for me for doing me a favor? I've recently learned two new tricks, and I've made a belt for both my grandfather and my father, and they've all praised me!"
Zhao Mo recalled that when he went to see the prince just now, the prince was dressed in a homely dress, and a belt with a crooked embroidered stripe was tied around his waist, and he wondered how this level of needlework could appear on the prince of a country? Now the truth is revealed. He smiled and praised Lord Minshun: "Yes, I just went to His Royal Highness the Crown Prince, and I was a little curious when I saw His Highness's belt." Now that I think about it, it must have been done by the county lord. I want it in my heart, it's a rare dignity! But I'm afraid that the embroidery on my belt is too fine, what if I get tired of the county lord? Why don't you embroider a handkerchief for me? Now that the weather is getting hotter, the veil is just right. Don't embroider, it's good to have two bamboo leaves. β
Of course, bamboo leaf embroidered handkerchiefs are much easier to make than belts. Lord Minshun agreed, and said happily: "I must do it well! Brother Mo remembered to take it with him." β
Zhao Mo played the package ticket, thinking that it was just a handkerchief, every time he entered the palace, he brought two pieces with him, one in front of the prince, the princess and the lord of Minshun, and the other in front of others, what could it cost?
Zhao Mo heard a lot of information from the county lord of Minshun, comforted the little girl, coaxed people into happiness, and then went back to His Royal Highness the Prince, had dinner with him, and then went out of the palace.
He didn't go back to the other courtyard directly, taking advantage of the fact that the city was not yet at curfew, he first asked a few good friends, including clansmen, nobles, and official eunuchs, to come out for tea, catch up, and make another appointment to get together again, and then go home.
Early the next morning, after having breakfast in Yongjiahou Mansion, he went back to the courtyard from the back door, took his younger brother Zhao Qi out, and went to his father Zhao Shuo's house.
At the beginning, he planned to forcibly send Zhao Shuo to the fiefdom, but unexpectedly, Zhao Shuo was cunning, and only took Zhen Zhong and two entourages out and went to Xiuning Palace. He said that he was going to resign, but in fact, he pretended to be sick in the process of being a guest, and insisted on staying in Xiuning Palace. He thought that as long as he waited for Zhao Mo to leave, he would be able to escape the catastrophe, but he never expected that Zhao Mo would leave without saying a word, but he didn't do nothing. He only stayed in the palace of Xiuning for two days, and was called by the king of Xiuning to reprimand.
It turned out that Zhao Mo secretly spread rumors, saying that his father Zhao Shuo threatened him and asked him to hand over the power of the fief, even the military power and financial power, if he did not pay, Zhao Shuo would go to the sect and the elders of the clan to sue him for unfilial piety and deprive him of his title.
King Xiuning felt that Zhao Shuo's nose was not a nose, and his eyes were not eyes, and he felt that he was unkind to his father, unkind to his brother, unfilial to his son, and disloyal to his ministers...... After scolding him a lot, he ordered him to go home honestly and stop talking bad about his son outside. If he really lost his son's title and fief, could it be that he would be able to get it well? Who wouldn't cherish such a filial and capable son? He was not greedy enough, so he had to share it with his son.
Zhao Shuo has nowhere to sue. King Xiuning is highly respected in the clan, and he came forward to testify, no matter how much Zhao Shuo complains about Zhao Mo's unfilial piety, no one will believe him, but will think that he is desperate, Xiao wants to be in power of Suning's fiefdom, so he will do this. Coupled with the fact that he ignored his half-brother Zhao coldly, and never lived in the fiefdom with his father, all kinds of reputations have long been unhearable. Xiuning Wangfu, that is, they didn't want him to bring the reputation of the clan anymore, so they didn't spread his bad deeds to everyone. He returned home in a gloomy manner, only to find that his concubine Ma Meiniang and a large number of subordinates were sent away by Zhao Mo in advance. Even if he wanted to stay in the capital, there was no point.
Now that Zhao Mo has returned, he brought Zhao Qi to see him and officially bid him farewell. He looked at the two sons who had separated from him expressionlessly, ignored Zhao Qi, and only glared at Zhao Mo: "What if you send me away? I will come back one day in the future!"
Zhao Mo smiled slightly: "If you can come back, then come back." What's this? In a few months, it will be Halloween, and I can have someone hand you a fold and ask the emperor to allow you to return to Beijing to celebrate your birthday. As long as the emperor nods, you can come back at any time. This is the house of the imperial gift, and unless the emperor takes it back, it will always be your home. How about you keep someone to guard it? Let Jiang Cheng stay. The property in your hands can also continue to be in charge of Shao Lusheng. I'm not going to rob you. β
Zhao Shuo looked at him suspiciously: "You have such a good heart?"
Zhao Mo just smiled and said nothing. What is he afraid of? The emperor will not let Zhao Shuo return to Beijing to celebrate his birthday. Naturally, he was happy. After all, he's a well-known dutiful son, isn't he? 2k reading web
