Chapter 3 Whispering

Emperor Yuan He hurriedly grabbed Concubine Xian and said: "If you don't say it, I also know that Yuan Han is a good boy, with good literary talents, and a stable person, but he can take on a big responsibility." Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info You can help him take a look, and I will marry him in the future. ”

Concubine Xian couldn't help but be overjoyed, her maiden nephew was valued by the emperor, and she would have the glory of marriage in the future.

Emperor Yuanhe changed his words, but he talked about Xue Yuanhan's current family affairs: "What is Changyi's plan?" I heard that although the Xue family and the Yu family were married. But since Yu Ge's son came home to worry, the two families have not been in contact with each other during the New Year? ”

Speaking of her father, Concubine Xian also felt embarrassed. At the beginning, my father took a fancy to Yu Ge Lao and was very popular in Shilin, so he took advantage of his honor in the palace and made this family.

Later, Yu Ge Lao Zhishi, and then his son was involved in a lawsuit, and Yu Ge Lao died of illness in anger. His son returned to his hometown to worry, and now that three years have passed, it seems that there is no hope for recovery.

Uncle Changyi saw that the Yu family was really difficult to turn over, so he had the idea of quitting his family.

Concubine Xian said with difficulty: "The marriage between Yuan Han and Miss Yu was set too early, and she returned to her hometown with her parents at a young age, and she didn't know anything about her appearance, temperament, manners, and virtues, and her father felt embarrassed when she said it...... Changyi Bofu counted on Yuanhan, so his father had high expectations for his eldest granddaughter-in-law, but he was afraid that he would take another look. ”

Emperor Yuanhe nodded, didn't say anything, and turned his head into the east hall to see Xuanhui.

The curtain of the West Warm Pavilion of Cining Palace hung low, the fire kang on the ground had already burned, and the room was warm.

The queen mother was crooked on the couch, and the eldest princess of Funing and her daughter Wenjin County Lord sat on the brocade stool in front of the couch.

Wen Jin was concentrating on pruning the red plum in the azure Jun kiln porcelain vase, and the eldest princess of Funing said while peeling the fortune orange for the queen mother: "...... I didn't look at how good the Xue family was, but Xue Yuanhan's child was good-looking, well-written, and worthy of Wen Jin. Besides, this family affair is decided, and Concubine Xian thinks about her nephew and her mother's family, so she will become her own person with us. She doesn't have a son herself, so she has to find a support for Xuanhui in this palace in the future. ”

The Queen Mother waved her hand and said, "Don't eat it, this time the Fu Tangerine has a sour taste." ”

She turned her head and said to Wen Jin: "Let me ask you, what did you tell Xuanhui before the accident?" ”

Wen Jin put down the small scissors, took the wet handkerchief in the palace maid's hand and wiped her hands, and smiled at the Queen Mother: "Grandmother, I told you, why don't you believe it!" I just said that Xue Yuanhan had a family affair, and he was engaged to the granddaughter of Yu Ge Lao when he was the first emperor, and he was still the master when his father was alive. Nothing else was said! ”

The Queen Mother frowned and asked, "What else?" ”

Wen Jin pouted, "It's gone." Xuanhui likes her cousin and ran to ask the emperor for marriage, what does it have to do with me......"

The Queen Mother said: "If you don't fan the wind and light the fire by the side, I don't believe it." Xue Yuanhan's marriage has already been decided, why did Xuanhui suddenly make trouble at this time? What else do you like or dislike, where are the rules of my daughter's family? ”

Wen Jin hugged the Queen Mother's arm and shook it, and said coquettishly: "Isn't that in front of my dear grandmother!" I love to talk to you! ”

After speaking, seeing that the Queen Mother was still looking at herself, she knew that she couldn't be confused, so she said: "I also said that the Xue family has been walking around with the Yu family in recent years, and most of them don't want to marry this family......

The Queen Mother said helplessly: "You, you look smart, why are you so unsuccessful in your heart!" What if the emperor agrees? Xue Yuanhan is the nephew of Concubine Xian's mother, what is more reassuring than marrying his daughter back to his parents' family? Your mother ...... at the beginning."

Glancing at Funing's gloomy face, the Queen Mother sighed: "Hey, forget it, don't talk about this." You are not allowed to be angry with Xuanhui in the future, the two of them are choking! Xuanhui is the pearl of the emperor's palm, and when I see her, I have more smiling faces than I see the fifth child! You have been diligent in the past two days to go to Chengqian Palace and see Xuanhui more. ”

Seeing that Wen Jin didn't squeak, he raised his voice: "Did you hear that?" ”

Wen Jin said in a muffled voice, "Got it." ”

The county lord Wen Jin returned home with his mother, and the little girl in front of the main house opened the curtain one step slower, and slapped Wen Jin in the face: "Eyeless hooves!" If you don't look at who you are, you will be arrogant! ”

The little girl fell to her knees in panic: "The county lord forgives the sin!" The slave doesn't dare anymore! Wen Jin's willow eyebrows were upside down, and she screamed, "Get out!" The girl apologized in a panic and got up and retreated into the courtyard.

When she arrived at the house, the eldest princess of Funing sat down, took a sip of the tea brought by the maid, breathed a sigh of relief, and said, "I know you are holding your breath in your heart, but you did something wrong in this matter!" ”

Seeing her daughter open her mouth to distinguish, Fu Ning continued: "Don't be unconvinced! The Queen Mother is right, you patronize Xuanhui and show off with her, but you never thought about what if the emperor and Concubine Xian were trying to point Xuanhui to Xue Yuanhan? ”

The county lord of Wen Jin argued: "That's not worth my grandmother's decree!" The emperor still has to listen to the queen mother, this is filial piety! ”

Fu Ning was so angry with his daughter that he laughed: "Then tell me what filial piety is?" I can say that the Empress Dowager promised to marry you and Xue Yuanhan, that is to win over Concubine Xian! It's good that you offended both the mother and daughter in one go, and if you can't win them over, you have a feud! ”

The county lord of Wen Jin was unconvinced: "What are you doing to win over Concubine Xian?" The queen mother is the one who holds the phoenix seal, and there are five princes, and the virtuous concubine didn't even give birth to a son......"

As soon as the words came out, the county lord of Wenjin knew that he had said the wrong thing, and when he saw that his mother's face was really ugly, he stepped forward and sat beside his mother, picked candied fruit for his mother to eat, and said carefully: "Mother, I mean, after all, the queen gave birth to a son-in-law, and her grandmother was born in the Chengen family, and no one can compare with the identity of the fifth prince!" Why does my grandmother have to worry so much? ”

Fu Ning looked at her daughter's delicate face, felt sorry for her anger, and annoyed her for not using her brain, and couldn't help but say a little heavier: "If you are so unscrupulous in the future, and your words are not considered, the Queen Mother will not be able to protect you!" I know you don't look down on Xuanhui, but Xuanhui is a princess! ”

Seeing that his mother was angry, the county lord of Wenjin bit his lip and whispered: "Mother, don't be angry!" Can't I listen to you in the future? My daughter is stupid and blunt, you teach more! ”

Fu Ning was helpless, so he could only tell his daughter carefully: "There are three princes in the palace. The fifth prince is now seven years old, and he has entered the Chongwen Pavilion to study, and the scholars also praise him for his intelligence and intelligence, but why does the emperor still delay the establishment of the prince? The concubine gave birth to the second prince, and over the years, she has jumped up and down, isn't it just to earn a good name for the second prince and pave the way for him? There are also three princes, when his mother Concubine Shufei died, the emperor said that he would send him to Chengqian Palace to be raised by Concubine Xian, why did your grandmother have a free life, and she had to ask the three princes to go to Cining Palace? ”

Looking at her daughter's thoughtful expression, Fu Ning felt a little better, and finally it was not hopeless, so he continued: "What does your grandmother want to accomplish most now, do you know? ”

The county lord of Wen Jin immediately said: "My grandmother wants the emperor to make the fifth prince the crown prince!" ”

Fu Ning nodded, and asked again: "Then who in the harem can help the five princes say something?" ”

The county lord of Wen Jin folded his hands and counted: "The queen mother, the queen mother, well, the concubine wants to help the second prince, and the virtuous concubine will not help anyone." The other concubines couldn't speak in front of the emperor. ”

"Concubine Xian herself has no son, and she has not raised the third prince. The emperor often goes to Chengqian Palace, and her mother and daughter are extremely important in the emperor's heart. If Concubine Xian could stand aside with us and help the five princes talk, wouldn't the odds be a little better? You're stupid, don't talk to Xuanhui every day! If you really hurt Xuanhui, the Queen Mother can't save you! You think Xue Yuanhan is good in your heart, and I also helped you say that the Queen Mother was moved, and you yourself have to think more about it. In the past few days, go to see Xuanhui more, behave more in front of Concubine Xian, and make her happy, and your marriage can go more smoothly. ”

When the county lord of Wenjin thought of Xue Yuanhan, he was happy in his heart, and when he thought of Xuanhui, he hesitated and said: "Xuanhui has been burning for several days, and he only woke up today...... What if Concubine Xian really resents me? ”

Fu Ning smiled coldly and said, "It's just that you are only asked to compensate for her, if she is an acquaintance, she will not embarrass you." ”
