227.Chapter 227

Since the eldest princess of An Xing and the concubine Cheng Qing were both imprisoned in the princess's mansion, Concubine Yang, who originally stayed in the palace and did not ask about the world, became anxious. Last time, Princess An Xing and Cheng Qing were also locked under house arrest in the palace, but there was no evidence at that time, the news was well concealed, and Princess Peng, who had a close relationship, was secretly relieved, so she naturally did not worry too much. However, this time King Peng's rebellion happened, Princess Anxing was accused of being an accomplice, and everyone in Chang'an City knew about it, but no one was willing to help her, how could she not be anxious?

Even the Yang family only passed on some specious words, and their attitude was vague to reassure her, but they never mentioned how to rescue the eldest princess of An Xing. Almost every hour or two, she sent her cronies to the Hongnong County Mansion to spread the word, wanting to see her brother and sister-in-law. Who knew that Yang Shijing was "busy" all day, and Mrs. Wei was suddenly "sick", and no one had any intention of coming to see her. After all these days, not even a junior has been sent over.

Such a cold attitude finally made Concubine Yang gradually wake up. Yes, what my brother wants all his life is to push Hongnong Yang to a more prosperous position, how can he be willing to fold himself into it for the sake of his niece? As the daughter of the Hongnong Yang family, of course she has no intention of sacrificing her mother's family to protect her daughter, but the Yang family should at least help her a little bit and help her show her the way?!

They can't wait to cut each other clean, like strangers - but how can the bloodline be so easy to break off?! Has the Yang family relied on their mother and daughter for so many years? Not to mention nine points in return, even if one point is returned, it will not make her so chilled!!

At this moment, Concubine Yang suddenly thought of another brother and eldest sister. Although the second room has no power, and the head of the house only serves as a minor official, after all, there is still Concubine Yang Xian in the palace, and King Qi; The niece of the eldest sister is also Pei Cairen, and it is rumored that the favored Cheng DΓΉ is on par with Yang Meiren. As long as they are willing, they can say a few good words for their daughter. At this time, the outcome is no longer important, as long as someone is willing to speak for her daughter and let her see her, she will definitely do everything to persuade her daughter.

Just when Concubine Yang changed her mind and planned to send someone directly into the palace to see Concubine Yang Xian and Pei Cairen, Yang Shijing finally gave her a letter, gave her a few words of euphemism, and assured that Yang Meiren would definitely wait for her in the palace. After reading the letter, Concubine Yang finally breathed a sigh of relief, and went to see Concubine Yan with the treasures she had accumulated for many years.

I don't know if Concubine Yan was moved by her tears, or tempted by the treasures she gave - early the next morning, she summoned her nephew Yan Zhan, and took Concubine Yang to Taiji Palace to meet Empress Du in Anren Palace.

When the two concubines came to the front of Anren Palace, not only did Queen Du hold Princess Changning and Princess Yong'an to greet her, but she was also followed by a Yang beauty who was walking slowly with her waist. Queen Du originally wanted to perform the junior ceremony, but where did Concubine Yan and Concubine Yang dare to accept it calmly, so they only saluted by Princess Changning, Princess Yong'an and Yang Meiren.

"I haven't seen her for a few days, and Yue Niang is really getting more and more excited. Look at this posture, look at this bearing, in the past few decades, I have never seen such an outstanding little lady. In my opinion, which of the famous little ladies in Chang'an City can compare to our family's Yue Niang? If it weren't for the fact that our royal family is not rare to spread any good reputation, it would not be their turn to compete for beauty. Concubine Yan smiled and grabbed Princess Changning's jade arm and praised her.

Princess Changning lowered her eyes and smiled, only making a calm appearance, and did not speak. Yan Zhan stood aside, looking at her for a moment, with affection in his eyes.

Seeing this, Concubine Yang couldn't hide her joy, and praised many words like the two of them were a good couple, and finally inevitably asked about the wedding date. However, no one seemed to have noticed that Princess Changning's lowered eyes were full of coldness, and she was not moved by the affection on Yan Zhan's face.

Empress Du smiled lightly: "Yue Niang has grown so big, she has never left the saint and me...... We are reluctant to marry her early, and we want her to stay by her side for a few more days. After all, after getting married, you can't be as comfortable as you are now. Moreover, I can't see her anytime and anywhere at that time, and I'm afraid I'll miss her tightly. ”

"Isn't the Princess's Mansion right next to the Imperial City? At that time, it should be very convenient for Yue Niang to enter and leave the palace every day, and it will not delay the saint and Her Royal Highness the Queen to love her daughter. Moreover, the female eldest should be married - I remember that Yue Niang's birthday was in June? After celebrating this birthday, it will be fifteen, and it is the time of the flower letter. Concubine Yan hurriedly continued, "If there is a rare good day this year, why wait until next year?" Not to mention anything else, Da Lang has been looking forward to it for many years. ”

Hearing this, Yan Zhan's face was slightly red, and the corners of his lips were gently hooked. But Princess Changning frowned without a trace.

Queen Du glanced at her beloved daughter and said with a smile: "The princess's mansion has not yet been built, so no matter how anxious Da Lang is, he has to wait a little." Another day, I will call Xuan Qi first, ask about the progress of the princess's mansion, and then see how the good days are. At present, it is still the cousin of the king of Xin'an County who supervises the construction of the Changning Princess Mansion. Because they were too relieved, Empress Du and the saint would ask almost when they thought about it. Princess Changning didn't ask at all, and left everything to her cousin to decide.

It's hard to hide the joy in this room, but the other is still gloomy and miserable. For this niece who is pregnant with a dragon fetus, Concubine Yang is of course quite grateful. After all, her body is also heavy now, and it is not easy to come to Anren Hall to accompany her. It's a pity that when Yang Meiren held her, she only opened her lips and whispered a few words of relief, without making any guarantees. Of course, at this time, no one can guarantee that they will be able to rescue Princess Anxing, and it is extremely rare to be willing to give it a try.

When Concubine Yang mentioned the matter of Princess Anxing, Queen Du was not surprised. She already knew what she was coming for.

However, for decades, in her impression, this concubine, who has been fasting for many years, has a somewhat cold temperament, and it seems that she has not asked about mundane things for many years. However, when it came to her daughter's life and death, she was no different from an ordinary mother, unable to stop crying, her red and swollen eyes pleading over and over again.

Hearing her choking and crying, not only Concubine Yan cried with her, but even Queen Du and Yang Meiren also had red eyes. After reluctantly controlling the affection, Queen Du said: "After many years of sisterly and brotherly affection, how can the saint be willing to deal with Sister Anxing according to the law?" If the concubine was willing to persuade her to tell her what was behind the scenes, the saint would naturally argue for her. Not to mention saving his life, even if he is titled, he can't be saved. ”

Of course, she won't mention the food and so on outside the title. The eldest princess of Anxing should always pay the price for her actions, right? Saving 600 real households, it can also increase some taxes to the imperial court, why not do it?

Concubine Yang hurriedly bowed her head and agreed: "I will definitely persuade her, and Her Royal Highness the Queen of Labor will intercede with the saint on my behalf, and let me go and see her." ”

Empress Du asked the palace people around her a few words, probably to find out where the saint was at present. Seeing her so calmly, Concubine Yang, Concubine Yan and Yang Meimei all hid their surprise: whether in the period of the first emperor or now, ordinary concubines are not allowed to listen to the holy car at will, otherwise they will be suspected of watching the saint's left and right. But Queen Du didn't mind letting them know, so it could be seen that it should be the grace of the saint's charter. This sick emperor is really favored by the emperor, and Concubine Yuan Shu and the new concubines and the like can't compare with her at all.

After asking clearly, Queen Du said: "The sage is summoning Xuan Qi and Wang Yushi in the Ganlu Palace. Yue Niang, you and Yan Dalang go to the Ganlu Hall together and report this matter to the sage. If the saint agrees, it is best to let Concubine Yang go to see Sister An Xing today. Mother and son are connected, and Concubine Yang has been worried about her for so long, we can't bear to watch it from the sidelines. ”

"Save it." Princess Changning got up and left, followed by Yan Zhan.

Concubine Yang breathed a sigh of relief, wiped away the tears from the corners of her eyes, and said many words of gratitude to Queen Du. In a trance, she even suddenly said: "Her Royal Highness the Queen is really kind and gentle, and she is really more and more similar to Queen Wende......"

Empress Du was slightly stunned and said with a smile: "The concubine's words not only taught me to be ashamed, but also made me happy in my heart." Don't hide it from the concubine, I have always learned the style of the A family. If it weren't for the careful guidance of the Ah family before, I probably wouldn't be able to take care of the huge Taiji Palace now. If I can be like the Ah family in the future, everyone praises me, and I will be satisfied. ”

Concubine Yan and Yang Meiren were also stunned, and then said similar good things. The two of them have completely different thoughts about Empress Wende, and they also have their own thoughts about Empress Du.

Of course, Concubine Yan was dedicated to the Yan family, and felt that it would be great if Empress Du could be respected and favored by the saints like Empress Wende. Back then, she also hated Empress Wende and wanted to replace her, but in the end she had to give up. If today's Queen Du can be as stable as Queen Wende, it will be very good for the Yan family.

And Yang Meiren not only admires Empress Wende, but also wants to become Empress Wende. Empress Du is both a person she emulates and an obstacle she must remove. At this moment, she had all kinds of envy and jealousy in her heart, and she couldn't help but stroke her bulging abdomen quite complacently: at least, she was young, and she could give birth to a prince, which was a little better than the sick Queen Du. Of course, at this moment, in order to make Queen Du smile, what are the thoughts and thoughts in her heart?

However, it was said that Princess Changning and Yan Zhan went to the Ganlu Hall together, and there was nothing unusual at first. Yan Zhan still told some interesting things about the recent past, and asked about the lanterns he sent some time ago. Princess Changning replied patiently, and seeing that he didn't mention anything about today's events, she couldn't help but feel extremely bored: "You know that I don't like the Yang family, why don't you dissuade Concubine Yan, but instead bring Concubine Yang to see A-Niang with her?" ”

"Your lord, the Hongnong Yang clan is a big clan after all, and it is really not worth it to fight with them for the sake of Concubine Yang Xian and King Qi." Yan Zhan explained, "Moreover, the friendship of sending charcoal in the snow, I can't say when it will be used in the future?" Now, Her Royal Highness the Queen and your lord should also have more good karma. This is a subtle reminder that Yang Meiren has a dragon fetus in her womb.

"Heh, has your Yan family always been swaying from side to side like this?" Princess Changning raised her eyebrows, not angry but laughing.

"No, how is this swaying from side to side? It's just convenient for others and for yourself. Yan Zhan hurriedly said, "Moreover, doesn't the saint also hope to be able to solve the matter of the eldest princess of Anxing?" Being able to solve the urgency of a saint can be regarded as our filial piety, isn't it? ”

"If you say yes, that's it." Princess Changning replied lightly and ignored him anymore.
