The spring rain for days finally left a respite for people, the sun hangs high in the capital for a long time, the early sun rises, and the young leaves sprout, which makes people feel comfortable.

Shen Xiaohai, the prince of the British princess, returned to the mansion after getting off the palace, and saw that the wife of the prince He was discussing with his eldest daughter-in-law the congratulatory ceremony to go to the Zhongyi General's Mansion.

"Came back early today?" He put down the list in his hand, got up and took off his cloak for him personally.

The eldest and youngest grandmother also came up to ask An to see the salute, Shen Xiaohai nodded, waved her hand and told her to go down.

"Going to Zhongyi Mansion, the Song family has news?" Shen Xiaohai sat down in the yellow birch circle chair casually, raised his eyebrows and looked at the He family: "I heard that the eldest young master in their house went to Qingzhou, what's the matter?" Didn't you say that you would go to the festival to hunt? If you delay back and forth like this, you will definitely not be able to go. ”

He stepped forward to take off his boots for him, put on comfortable woolen hook shoes for him, and did not forget to reply to his words: "I went to Qingzhou, and Mrs. Song happened to mention this matter the day I went over." It's a coincidence, sir, you don't know that their aunt and grandmother are a little bit of. ”

Shen Xiaohai nodded, and seemed to have a bit of a lively mentality: "This year, their family Song Ren can't go, and he will definitely accompany him in April, and the second and third have just come back from a long trip." It stands to reason that a steward will be sent, why do you want Song Jue to go in person this time? Is it going to be a no-brainer? ”

He spread his clothes on the shelf, thought about it and said, "I guess it's the same thing when I look at it, Mrs. Song seems to be in a bad mood." It's a pity that the concubine of Bofu has fallen into this fate. ”

Shen Xiaohai didn't think so, so he didn't mention it anymore, and instead said: "Be vigilant when you go there, the old lady of the Song family is a good person, and she also went through strong winds and waves back then." Don't miss a trace. ”

Speaking of this, the He family couldn't help but be a little frightened, and after hesitating, he couldn't help but speak: "But their family has already produced a noble concubine, how can they be willing to take refuge in another family?" ”

"What about the concubine?" Shen Xiaohai sneered: "She has only given birth to a princess so far, and she has not even given birth to a prince." What's more, even if you are born, you may not be able to raise it, the emperor and queen are feelings since childhood, and she can compare? Even Concubine Xian gave birth to two princes, and both of them have become adults. She is not four or six now, she can't compare her love with a virtuous concubine and a good concubine, and she can't compare with her status as a queen, don't you want to find a way back for yourself? ”

Noble and virtuous, Song Chuchen became the head of the four concubines in just a few years, and the scenery is incomparably beautiful on the surface. But on closer inspection, it is not difficult to see that she is in an awkward situation.

After all, Emperor Jianzhang is over half a hundred years old, but she is only twenty-three years old, and she is in the prime of her youth.

He still has some vision, thought about it and reminded him: "The old uncle is an old fox, he is now a household scholar, and he has an identity and status, he will only be more cautious and stable than before, I am afraid that he will not take risks with the future of the Song family." ”

"So there's no urgency." Shen Xiaohai pointed to the loquat on the table with his finger, and motioned for He Shi to hand it over: "The virtuous concubine in the palace is an unassertive person, and she doesn't do what King Duan is called?" When she gets acquainted with the concubine, some things will naturally be easy to say. If the concubine has an idea, does the Song family still want to ignore it? With our outside help, things are six or seven points possible. ”

He peeled the loquat for him, picked it up with a toothpick, and sighed worriedly: "After all, this is a big deal." Would you like to consult with your father? ”

Shen Xiaohai couldn't hear this, his face showed some impatience, and the loquat didn't answer.

"Consult with him? What else would he do but eat and die? Now he still refuses to pass on the seat to me, isn't he afraid that he will be demoted? If I don't make some merits, this son will be an uncle when it is Qingrang's turn. Changningbo Mansion still has a real job, what do we have? When it is demoted to Bofu, can our life be comparable to Changningbofu? ”

There is a noble concubine in Changning Bo's Mansion, and the uncle has taken the imperial examination for the first time and has a background, and climbed to the position of the head of the household.

This is also the grace of the heavenly family, when the old Changning Marquis and his brothers fought for property and even alarmed the first emperor to be punished, and the title was demoted from Hou to Bo, and Changning Bofu was greatly injured.

Originally, it was the uncle's brother-in-law Song Cheng who played the lord, but who knew that within a few days of the attack, he was tossed and lost his life by a riot in the twelve guards of the pro-army, and at this time, Song Chengwei, the second son of the second son who did not need to attack the lord, had already been admitted to the jinshi and received the official position and released the prefect.

The first emperor remembered the exploits of the Marquis of Changning, and also remembered that Song Chengyan died in the line of duty after all, so he allowed Song Chengwei to take the title as an official. As a result, Changningbo Mansion became more prosperous.

Of course, this is incomparable to the British government, which will be downgraded after four generations, and seeing that it is about to be downgraded, Shen Xiaohai of course can't sit still.

The status of the prince of the East Palace is as stable as Mount Tai, and a person like him who has an empty name and no real position defects to the past, and he will not get any benefits. The sword can only go off the rails.

Seeing that he looked unhappy, He didn't dare to say anything more, so he only agreed.

Shen Xiaohai hates her to show this virtue the most - the He family is famous for bullying the weak and afraid of the hard, and he is arrogant in front of the low-ranking wife outside, and when he returns to the inner house, he is not allowed to do anything, and he is only a voice worm in front of his in-laws and himself.

If it weren't for the fact that four generations of British princes were addicted to pleasure and didn't know how to make progress, how could he have ended up marrying the daughter of a relative who had no real power. Look at this upbringing, as soon as it is compared with other noble ladies, it is timid.

Thinking of this, and thinking about Wang Jinsilai, a playmate when he was a child and raised in front of the Queen Mother, he couldn't help but feel interested.

Even with this dislike, he still didn't forget to tell He Shi again: "Don't mess up this time, and don't talk too much." Naturally, there are people from the Zhongyi General's Mansion to say, you have made Mrs. Song suspicious with less mouth and more tongue. ”

Where did He dare not listen, he was busy responding.

Shen Xiaohai stood up, took his robe and walked out.

"You're not eating at home?" He hurriedly went up to dress him, with a little expectation and a little loneliness on his face.

Shen Xiaohai shook his head, and when he finished sorting out his clothes, he stepped out of the door, thought about it and turned back: "By the way, you still discipline that stinky boy for me on weekdays." Since he is the same age, how many places is he and the Song family? ”

He Shi knew what he meant, and hurriedly answered: "It seems that the ranking among the girls is sixth. ”

"Let them come and go more. That little girl has one more benefit than the other girls of the Song family. After Shen Xiaohai finished speaking, he left without looking back.
