Chapter 52: The Crown Princess of Southern Chu
No matter how the Changning Marquis Mansion tossed, Zhen Zhen couldn't see it for the time being, and Zhen Zhen was looking at a booklet at this time. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info
"Mother Jiang, these are all you usually recorded?" Zhen Zhen raised her big eyes full of surprise, and the thick eyelashes left a faint halo at the corners of her eyes.
In the room, except for Zhen Zhen who was sitting on the couch, there was only Mother Jiang standing on the side with her hands down.
Mother Jiang leaned forward slightly, with a slight smile on her face, "I used to get used to it, and I always thought that if there was a use in the future, I paid attention to it." ”
Zhen Zhen nodded, stopped talking, and looked down at the booklet in her hand carefully.
After a while, Zhen Zhen didn't look up, and asked in a low voice, "Mother Jiang, do you remember all this?" ”
"Both. If you have any questions, just ask. "Although the booklet records a lot of things, after all, not everything is recorded in such detail.
Zhen Zhen subconsciously clenched her right hand into a fist, then slowly released it, stretched out her fingers and unconsciously scribbled on the couch.
"The eldest lady of the Dingguo Mansion married the prince of Nanchu? Shouldn't marriages with other countries be royal princesses? ”
"Miss Hui, it was like this a long time ago, but a hundred years ago, there was a sudden natural disaster in the entire continent at the same time, and at that time, the population of the surrounding countries, including our Great Xia, was almost half.
It is said that it is because the wars of several countries for many years have violated the peace of heaven, and God has warned and punished the world.
Later, in order to reproduce, several countries rarely sat together to discuss together, and only then did they have the current tribute every five years. It is also for the sake of common development, and many women and men of important families can marry with neighboring countries. ”
Zhen Zhen nodded, so that's the case, no wonder I've been here for a few months, and I have hardly heard of anything about the war.
Although a hundred years have passed since that natural disaster, the productive forces and development of ancient times are far from being as good as those of modern times.
"What kind of person is Prince Nanchu?"
"It is said that the prince of Nanchu is a very mediocre person, because he only occupies the long, not the heir, so he is not loved by His Majesty Nanchu."
Zhen Zhen frowned and raised her head slightly, thinking for a moment, "You mean that Nan Chu did not have a prince?" ”
"Empress Nanchu has only one princess, and she has no heirs later. The mother of the prince of Nanchu is the queen's sister-in-law. ”
Zhen Zhenxi's thick eyelashes fluttered, and there was a look of surprise in her eyes, "Could it be that there is any secret in Empress Nanchu?" ”
Mother Jiang quickly raised her eyelids and glanced at Zhen Zhen, and the shock in her heart could not be described in words.
When I came to Miss, it was because of Tieye's words, so naturally I would be loyal to Miss and her own family.
But I didn't expect that Miss was actually not simple, no wonder Tie Ye was able to send his family to Miss without hesitation.
Thinking of this, Mother Jiang inadvertently seemed to have more respect for Zhen Zhen, "After Queen Nanchu gave birth to a princess, she recruited her sister-in-law into the palace in less than three months.
According to the news from our people, the queen was born in someone else's way, and there can be no more heirs. ”
That's right, if it weren't for such a big thing, how could he have sent his own sister to the palace?
"Are there any other brothers and sisters under Prince Nanchu?"
Mother Jiang's face was stunned, and she shook her head, "No, when the prince of Nanchu was three years old, his mother was injured by the assassin's poison dart in order to protect him, and he was rescued for a few days and finally did not come back." ”
"So, the prince of Nanchu later grew up with the queen? So is his relationship with the eldest princess also closer than the next one? ”
Mother Jiang really has to admire Miss's mind, and she will immediately figure out a lot of things in a few words.
"Yes, the eldest princess has always loved the prince like a younger brother. Someone once asked the prince to be raised under the queen's name, but the queen said that she could not take away the only heir of her sister-in-law, and refused the matter. ”
Zhen Zhen put down the booklet in her hand, raised her head, straightened her body, and twisted her body a few times to relax her somewhat stiff body.
"It seems that the queen is not simple!" Vera murmured quietly.
If the name is under the queen, it is the identity of the heir, in the eyes of outsiders, this is a great honor, and it is also a favorable bargaining chip for the future position.
But there are no absolutes in the world, many things are two-sided, and while you occupy the glory, it is also equivalent to putting yourself in front of everyone, and you will undoubtedly become the target of everyone in your subconscious.
Standing on the cusp of the storm is not pleasant, and if you are not careful, this kind of glory becomes poison.
"How did the crown princess marry Nanchu? What is her situation on Nanchu's side? Zhen Zhen, who had been silent for a long time, asked lightly.
"I heard that the prince of Southern Chu himself begged the Emperor of Southern Chu to come to Great Xia to ask for marriage. Because the crown prince was not loved by the emperor, the crown princess was ostracized by many people in the palace in Southern Chu. ”
Alas, it has been like this since ancient times, the heavenly family has no family affection, and the drama of fighting for the storage position must be performed in any dynasty.
Zhen Zhen's right hand was still unconsciously scratching on the couch, and her brain was running rapidly.
"How many years has the crown princess of Nanchu been married to Nanchu?"
"The crown princess of Nanchu was fifteen years old when she married Nanchu, and this year is already nine years."
"Nine years, huh? After nine years, didn't there be an heir before? Still is......? Zhen Zhen suddenly raised her head and glanced at Mother Jiang with a frown.
Mother Jiang smiled a little bitterly, "Although the fourth young master of the Protector Mansion was a little more sloppy in the past, he was not as mixed up as he is now.
When the crown princess of Nanchu was still in the mansion, the fourth young master was the closest to the eldest lady and the second miss.
Seven years ago, the crown princess of Nanchu gave birth to a baby boy, but she suddenly died before the full moon.
After this incident, the fourth young master personally went to Nanchu, and after he came back, his temperament changed greatly, he became more and more unbearable, and he tossed some boundless messes all day long. ”
After saying this, Mother Jiang didn't speak anymore, and still stood aside respectfully with her head bowed.
Zhen Zhen quickly straightened out in her heart, the queen of the prince of Nanchu was her own aunt, and she had nothing to do except a princess after being plotted. His mother was also killed for protecting herself.
Alas, it was all caused by the Southern Chu Emperor, but it made a group of women and children bear the guilt.
The prince of Nanchu asked to marry Miss Yan of the Dingguo Mansion of Great Xia, which should also be the queen's idea, in order to find a favorable foreign aid for the prince, but the princess was ostracized by the royal family everywhere when she arrived in Nanchu, and even killed her own son.
I gave birth again four years ago, but I was a small county lord, so I was able to live safely until now.
