"The emperor's eldest grandson?" Yao Xuan looked at Gong Zhe suspiciously, not understanding why he suddenly asked the other party. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

If it is said that the eldest grandson of the emperor is not worthy of support, this is something that the two of them have already reached a consensus.

Even the most unreliable Prince Jinshun has no objection in supporting orthodoxy, otherwise Concubine Shu would not let him go out and hang around.

Even if you don't mention the friendship between Prince Jinshun and His Royal Highness the Crown Prince who grew up in front of the Imperial Palace, just talking about the killer attributes of His Royal Highness the Prince's appearance and sickness, it is impossible for Prince Jinshun to pay attention to other lively princes.

Seeing that Yao Xuan really didn't understand, Gong Zhe's expression eased, and explained to her softly: "His Royal Highness the Emperor's eldest grandson is fourteen years old, and the emperor's uncle should make a marriage contract for him next year." ”

Yao Xuan's first reaction when she heard this was: What does this have to do with me? But when she thought about her age, she couldn't help but shake her head a little funny, "So what? ”

"If the Hou Mansion has no intention, the banquet of the crown princess in the past two years can still be avoided." Gong Zhe didn't go around in circles with Yao Xuan, and directly explained what he meant.

As for the fiancé's reserve or something, just act in front of the elders, but what do they actually not understand?

"Second cousin, you think too much, right? Let's not say that our family has no intention of climbing the dragon and attaching the phoenix at all. Yao Xuan thought that he was already very familiar with Xiao Shizi, so he didn't pretend to be, and directly denied Gong Zhe's worries, and whispered in his ear, "Let's just say that the saint, I'm afraid I won't be willing to let the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion be a relative, right?" ”

Yao Xuan's meaning is not to say how capable the Zhongyi Marquis Mansion is, which is jealous, but to say that Emperor Zhenglong has treated them coldly for more than 30 years, and suddenly he is a knight and an official and wants to elect the eldest concubine, which inevitably feels like he has been slapped in the face.

Emperor Zhenglong has thousands of ladies in the world to choose from, how can he not get along with himself?

Seeing Yao Xuan's disapproval, Gong Zhe no longer persuaded her, so as not to let the little girl fall into her mind, anyway, he was watching.

If the East Palace is really optimistic, how can the Holy Lord oppose it for the sake of a little face?

Although Yao's criteria for choosing a son-in-law were not revealed, the meaning of the adults would inevitably be revealed in front of their children, so under the guidance of Gong Zhe's intentions, the content that Gong Yu and Yao Zhi unconsciously revealed was enough for him to piece together a lot of things......

On the second day of Gong Zhe's birthday banquet, Yao Xuan, who had adjusted her condition, resumed her daily routine of learning housekeeping with Princess Yao in the morning and learning various homework in the afternoon.

What Yao Xuan didn't expect was that the first three things she faced after her 'return to work' were all related to the second girl, Gong Wei.

The first thing, the palace concubine was given to marry the son of a frontier hero, and the wedding date is tentatively scheduled for August this year, less than half a year away.

Second, because the biological mother of the palace concubine is no longer a concubine, the Ministry of Rites sent a letter to inquire, according to which standard the title of the second girl should be sealed.

The third thing, Concubine Shen, the adoptive mother of the palace concubine, is going to be bad.

According to the calendar of the Great Zhou Dynasty, it is never allowed to use a concubine as a concubine, and between concubines, it depends on the identity and status of their biological mother.

For example, a clan girl like Gong Yu, her biological mother was a concubine when she was born, and she made a mistake and was degraded later, and the palace woman can also ask for a seal with the position of the concubine's adoptive mother.

And a child born to a concubine or even a concubine, even if he is recognized by the concubine, the law will not recognize it.

Having said that, once Gong Yu really recognizes her adoptive mother's name, then because of Concubine Shen's grade, if she dies, according to the law, Gong Yu will have to keep filial piety for a year, which will inevitably delay the marriage period given by the sage.

Because of the issuance of the marriage will, Princess Yao happened to be in the Rongshou Hall of Concubine Shu at this time.

Although Princess Yao didn't like the concubine of the palace, for the sake of the face of the palace, she didn't want the other party to marry in the name of a concubine, so Princess Yao sent someone to invite a doctor to see if Concubine Shen could last for a few months.

Unfortunately, the result was not satisfactory, in the words of the doctor, the patient had no business and had the will to die.

After letting the subordinates send the doctor away, Princess Yao looked at Concubine Shu silently, after all, when it comes to the heirs of the palace, she is not good at specializing, and Concubine Shu has to make a decision on this matter.

And Concubine Shu thought of the considerate and intelligent palace maid she had given to her son, and couldn't help but sigh softly: "...... She's a pathetic one, too. ”

So she granted Concubine Shen's request to see her family, and allowed her niece to stay temporarily to see her off on her last journey.

Then, Concubine Shu sent someone to call the palace concubine, told her the will of the marriage and the matter of Concubine Shen, and signaled her to do her filial piety by her adoptive mother's side in the past few days.

Gong Yu listened with a half-hidden face in her shy answer at first, but later when she learned about Concubine Shen's situation, her face immediately changed, and she secretly hated that it was not the right time for her to be seriously ill.

But because of the previous head and face, no one noticed her abnormality, so that the palace concubine had time to hide her emotions, and when she looked up again, she was already with a sad and worried expression: "The granddaughter knows, the granddaughter will serve the concubine well."

Concubine Shu knew the affairs of the inner house, how could she not know what the attitude of the palace concubine towards her own mother and adoptive mother was, and she was not interested in watching those vain performances, and Concubine Shu did not stay in the palace more, and let her go down after the instructions.

Instead, Concubine Shu told Princess Yao that she would first reply to the Ministry of Rites and postpone the matter of asking for the seal for the time being, and then signaled to Princess Yao that after Concubine Shen Shu went, she would mention the position of the palace concubine's biological mother, so that she could ask the palace concubine to be sealed and marry this granddaughter smoothly.

Gong Yu was worried and hateful, and soon heard about the postponement of the seal, but she thought that she was burdened by her biological mother, and her future was destined to be worried, and she was angry and malicient for life......

Yao Xuan didn't care about the palace concubine, after all, the other party was a marriage given by the saint, and the wedding date was approaching, but just when Yao Xuan thought that the palace concubine would be like Gong Yan at the beginning, she closed the door and waited for the marriage, but the palace concubine released a big move to them.

"What? Concubine Liu committed suicide? ”

At that time, Yao Xuan was teaching in a small class, teaching three children to count, and Gong Zhe and Gong Yu, who had nothing to do, were also playing chess next to them.

After the news of the second simultaneous transmission came in, everyone couldn't help but look at each other for a while, and then asked about the others, the second tong was not very clear, only that the one was said to have left a suicide note, and now he is at the concubine's place.

Gong Zhe saw that Yao Xuan was a little concerned about this, so he motioned to Lu Guo behind him to investigate, and soon after, Lu Guo brought back the complete news.

It turned out that yesterday after the holy decree was issued, Gong Yu went to Concubine Liu to cry goodbye, what exactly was said to outsiders do not know, only know that Gong Yu's eyes were red and swollen and left, and Concubine Liu sat alone crying all night, this morning when the maid called someone, only to find that she had swallowed gold and committed suicide for a long time.
