Chapter 33: Thoughts (2)
PS: The chapter name of yesterday's chapter became today's chapter.,And it can't be changed.,Today's chapter can only be named with two.,But the content is right......
The disgust in his eyes flashed, and Zhou Yuran snorted coldly and turned his head.
However, she immediately thought that although Zhao Youjun entered Ciyun Nunnery, didn't she still have a daughter, and she was also named the county lord of Yunyang......
With a flash of inspiration in his mind, Zhou Yuran suddenly had a brilliant idea.
Now that Xiao Jingbei has become a climate, it seems unlikely that she will attack him as before, but if she can make a fuss about his family affairs, wouldn't it be easy to pinch him when the time comes?
After all, isn't it natural that she still has the identity of Duchess Anguo, as a mother and a son of the master?
As for the candidates, isn't there a ready-made one?
Of course, the candidate that Zhou Yuran thought of would not be Feng Zhige in front of him, but Feng Mingwu, the daughter of Zhao Youjun.
Zhao Youjun entered Ciyun Nunnery, and soon after that, Feng Mingwu became the lord of Yunyang County, how did she get the title of Yunyang, even if she used her knees to think, Zhou Yuran could guess that it was the Queen Mother who contributed to it.
First of all, he would rather turn his face with the emperor and give Zhao Youjun a way to live, after Zhao Youjun himself made himself into Ciyun Nunnery, he was able to give up his old face and beg the emperor to give Feng Mingwu a title.
Since Zhao Youjun was sent to Ciyun Nunnery by the emperor, the Queen Mother has never summoned Zhou Yuran into the palace.
Of course, the Queen Mother's affection for Zhou Yuran is clear, except for Zhao Youjun's mother and daughter, the others are the current emperor and her grandson Feng Mingxiang, how could they have ever shared her concern?
Zhao Youjun angered the emperor because he broke into the palace and made a fuss, so he was sent to Ciyun Nunnery.
And the reason why she broke into the palace regardless of it was because she received a letter with a completely different content from that written by the Queen Mother, but the letter was sent to Zhao Youjun by Zhou Yuran.
Although the Queen Mother didn't think that Zhou Yuran had the courage to calculate Zhao Youjun in the middle. Even the Queen Mother didn't find out when and who transferred the letter, but this did not prevent the Queen Mother from being angry with Zhou Yuran.
If Zhou Yuran used dim sum again and handed over the letter to Zhao Youjun with his own hands, wouldn't these things be avoided?
This is what the Queen Mother thinks. Therefore, since Zhao Youjun entered Ciyun Nunnery, the Queen Mother, who has been very close to Zhou Yuran for all these years, has never summoned Zhou Yuran into the palace.
A very important reason why Zhou Yuran has lived so comfortably over the years is because she has won the favor of the Queen Mother.
From Zhou Yuran's viciousness towards Xiao Jingbei, you can see what kind of character she is. If it weren't for the fact that everyone else in Su Rili didn't care more about the Queen Mother's face, I'm afraid that the nobles in the capital would have been offended by her a long time ago.
But now, the Queen Mother's obvious disappointment made Zhou Yuran panic.
Over the years, relying on the care of the Queen Mother, Zhou Yuran has made a lot of limelight in the circle of noblewomen in Beijing, if the ladies who revolve around her on weekdays know the current attitude of the Queen Mother, I am afraid that the person who complimented her the most in the past will also become the person who ridiculed her the most.
Zhou Yuran has long been praised for her noble identity over the years, as long as she thinks that she may be ridiculed like that, she feels uncomfortable, how can she be willing to let the imagination in her heart become a reality?
Now, this didn't make her think of a way to save it.
The Queen Mother can go to great lengths to ask for the title of the county lord for Feng Mingwu, and she must be very concerned about Feng Mingwu's family affairs. I hope that Feng Mingwu can marry a good family in the future.
Feng Mingwu is the daughter of the Marquis of Weiyuan, and it will naturally not be difficult to marry in the future, but if you want to marry a husband who is good in all aspects, it is even more difficult.
After all, although the Queen Mother asked for the identity of a county lord for Feng Mingwu, no one in Beijing knew that Feng Mingwu was just the concubine of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, even if she didn't mention the concubine, just because she would fight with Miss Qian in public in places like Fengyixuan, but anyone who was a little more particular would never marry such a daughter-in-law.
Scold. A county lord who has an empty name, has a vulgar demeanor, and doesn't know what gentleness is, if he really marries home, he will not only have to eat and drink well. I have to be on guard at all times against what she does to disgrace her husband's family, which lady is willing to hire such a daughter-in-law for her son?
Presumably, the Queen Mother also knows that Feng Mingwu's future family affairs are a problem, so she must fight for this title.
Zhou Yuran's eyes narrowed slightly.
If so, she can solve this problem for the Queen Mother, presumably. The Queen Mother's anger should also be gone, right?
Zhou Yuran's plan is very simple, she wants Feng Mingwu to marry into the Anguo Mansion.
The Anguo Mansion is one of the best in the capital, although it is now in decline due to An Guogong's illness in bed, but this can't stop Xiao Jingbei from fighting for himself, not only in front of the emperor to get face, but also as the Jinyi Weibei Town Fusi Fu Envoy of the four products, and the authority in his hands is enough to make the capital up to the ministers of the court, down to the peddlers and pawns to retreat one or two.
After a year and a half, when the nobles in Beijing confirm that Xiao Jingbei can really suppress Zhou Yuran's arrogance, I am afraid that Xiao Jingbei will immediately jump from the worst son-in-law candidate to the best match for the nobles in Beijing.
Noble-born, handsome-looking, and a celebrity in front of the emperor, he is destined to have a good future, all the issues that noble ladies have to consider when choosing a son-in-law Xiao Jingbei is considered to be superior, although people are a little colder, but such a person is reassuring to marry his daughter to him, it is much better than such a romantic person.
Therefore, with the conditions of Xiao Jingbei now, letting Feng Mingwu marry into the Anguo Mansion is really Feng Mingwu's high climb.
And the most important thing is that if Feng Mingwu really marries into the Anguo Mansion, her mother-in-law is Zhou Yuran, the cousin, even if she doesn't care about the sisterhood with Zhao Youjun, just for the face of the Queen Mother, she doesn't dare not be good to Feng Mingwu.
Such a good family affair, presumably, the Queen Mother will be very satisfied.
The only problem is that Feng Mingwu is not yet thirteen years old, and the age difference between him and Xiao Jingbei is a bit big.
However, this is also a very easy problem to solve, you can get engaged at a young age, and let Xiao Jingbei wait for two or three years before getting married......
In just this short moment, Zhou Yuran took all aspects of this sudden thought into account in his mind.
She is not worried that her calculation will not be successful, or Xiao Jingbei will not follow her arrangement, in short, there is still a big Buddha of the Queen Mother in the palace, the big deal is that when the time comes, let the Queen Mother ask the emperor for marriage, even if Xiao Jingbei resists her arrangement again. Can it still be resisted?
As for whether Xiao Jingbei is in love with the phoenix song in front of him?
Heh, who's going to bother with that?
seems to have seen a bright future in his imagination, and Zhou Yuran's mood that has been a little depressed these days instantly soared, and he was even stopped by Xiao Jingbei at the door. The anger brought about by losing face in front of his subordinates was all dissipated because of this sudden good mood.
At this time, Zhou Yuran didn't care about finding Xiao Jingbei angry, but hurried back to the house to think about this matter carefully.
Well, by the way, it is inevitable that other ladies will be the first to attack. She had to arrange it as soon as possible.
There is also Feng Mingwu, speaking of which, she has not seen Feng Mingwu yet, after all, the two of them are going to become mother-in-law and daughter-in-law in the future, so they have to find a chance to meet first.
Thinking of this, Zhou Yuran held the arm of the mother-in-law beside him and stood firmly, and instead of his previous angry face, he said with a smile: "Since the prince is entertaining guests and the grandfather is fine, then I won't bother too much, so I'll leave first." ”
After speaking, he didn't wait for Xiao Jingbei to react. As he came, he led a group of maids and women into the carriage and roared away, and the door, which had been crowded with a large group of people, became empty in an instant.
Looking at the carriage that was leaving quickly, Xiao Jingbei had some doubts in his eyes.
He thought that Zhou Yuran would have to make a fuss again this time to stop, but he didn't expect her to leave so easily.
has been fighting against Zhou Yuran for more than ten years, Xiao Jingbei is very aware of his stepmother's temperament, she came here so aggressively, but left so quickly after Feng Zhige appeared, could it be that there was some kind of unsightly calculation?
I have to say that Xiao Jingbei is the truth.
It's the song of the phoenix. I haven't seen enough of the show, why did Zhou Yuran leave like this?
I felt a little bored.
As for Zhou Yuran's calculations that flashed in his eyes after seeing her, Feng Zhige didn't take it to heart, not mentioning that Zhou Yuran's hand couldn't reach out to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion at all. Even if Zhou Yuran really wanted to attack her without knowing whether she was alive or dead, then she would not hesitate to make some effort to chop off Zhou Yuran's hand!
Ignoring the sights of the other people at the door, Feng Zhige stretched his waist very indecently, and said a little lazily: "Okay, since there is nothing to do, I should also go back." ”
Then he looked at Xiao Jingbei.
Xiao Jingbei originally heard Feng Zhige leaving. There was still some loss in his heart, until Feng Zhige looked at him, and he suddenly reacted because he wanted to avoid people's eyes, Feng Zhige not only did not take the carriage of the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, but also went out alone, and if she wanted to go back, he should naturally send someone to send her back.
In fact, if he could, Xiao Jingbei wanted to personally send Feng Zhige back.
It's just that now Feng Zhige has just come out of his father, and he hasn't seen his father's situation yet, so why is he leaving at this time?
Therefore, even if he was a little reluctant in his heart, Xiao Jingbei still asked Qin Bo to arrange a carriage to send Feng Zhige back.
……
Zhou Yuran's movements were fast.
Since she went to the Xiao family's house by the lake on the day she fought, she has been thinking carefully about Feng Mingwu's family affairs, and the more she thinks about it, the more she thinks her plan is indeed wonderful.
However, although he was in a hurry, Zhou Yuran was not in a hurry to make a move.
After all, she has never seen Feng Mingwu, even if she tries her best to promote this family affair in exchange for the favor of the Queen Mother, but she has also heard of Feng Mingwu's reputation, if Feng Mingwu is really a person who can't be supported, even if she pushes behind, I'm afraid it will be useless.
Therefore, Zhou Yuran still decided to see Feng Mingwu first.
So, on this day, Feng Zhige heard Mama Li tell her that it was the Duchess of Anguo who made a post to the second girl and invited the second girl to the Duke of Anguo Mansion to be a guest.
Visiting the Anguo Mansion?
Feng Zhige remembered the calculation in Zhou Yuran's eyes after seeing her that day, and his lips rose with a smile.
She thought that Zhou Yuran wanted to calculate her because of Xiao Jingbei, but she didn't expect it to be related to Feng Mingwu.
"Master, what about this post?" Mama Li asked.
"Since Duchess An Guo has such good intentions, then send the post to the second girl." Feng Zhi said.
I want to see what kind of medicine is sold in Zhou Yuran's gourd.
Mama Li retreated as she said, and then ordered someone to send the post to Feng Mingwu's courtyard.
During this time, the days of Feng Mingwu were not very good.
Although she now has the identity of a county lord, as Feng Zhige said, there is no county lord in this Hou Mansion, only the second girl in the mansion, so Feng Mingwu's current food and clothing are still according to the example of the concubines in the mansion.
As for the two palace ladies beside her, who were originally sent by the Queen Mother to take care of her, as early as after Feng Zhige revealed the secret in their hearts, the two of them no longer dared to choke with Feng Zhige. In the past few days, even if I occasionally met Feng Zhige in the house, I was as well-behaved as the most docile cat.
Speaking of which, since returning from the Spring Festival banquet that day, Feng Mingwu has never been out again.
Last time at Princess Hanyue's spring banquet. She, the newly baked county lord, didn't have time to make a good appearance in front of the nobles in Beijing, so she had to leave the stage early because of Princess Hanyue's slap.
Even after such a long time, remembering the undisguised disdain in Princess Hanyue's eyes when she slapped her, Feng Mingwu was still so angry that her heart hurt.
She thought that she would become the lord of Yunyang. This kind of scenery will inevitably cover up all the things that happened to her in the past, but I didn't expect that even with the identity of this county lord, her life is still not much better than before.
What she hates the most is Princess Hanyue, obviously the two are still related by blood, and they are cousins of their relatives, but Princess Hanyue can be sought after by everyone on top, and she can only stay in this Weiyuan Marquis Mansion and not even go out?
The more she thought about this, the more Feng Mingwu hated Zhao Youjun for his stupidity at the beginning.
If the mother didn't quietly enter the Weiyuan Hou Mansion as a concubine, but married into the Hou Mansion openly. Now she is not the royal lord who is honest and obedient, even if she is Princess Hanyue, I am afraid she can't look at her with that kind of disdain.
The post from the Anguo Mansion was sent to Feng Mingwu at this time.
"Duchess Anguo?"
After reading the post in her hand, Feng Mingwu had a moment of doubt, but then remembered that when her mother was still there, she said that Duchess Anguo was her mother's cousin, that is, her cousin.
Thinking of this, Feng Mingwu was depressed again.
Even my mother's cousin is now the noble lady of the Guogong Mansion. On the other hand, her mother, the eldest princess of Qingping, who was more noble than these people at the beginning, but now she can only live in places such as Ciyun Nunnery.
After a long time, Feng Mingwu could barely suppress the stuffiness in his heart. Instead, he thought about the intention of the Duchess of An Guo to make a post to her.
However, Feng Mingwu was not good at scheming, and he didn't know much about Duchess An Guo before, so he didn't come up with anything after thinking about it for a long time.
Tell her to ask the two palace ladies around her for advice?
If someone said that, Feng Mingwu would definitely snort disdainfully.
She originally thought that these two grandmothers from the palace would definitely be able to give Feng Zhige some hardship, but she didn't expect that these two people were only one of them, and they were almost not frightened by Feng Zhige.
Since that day. Feng Mingwu looked down on the two grandmothers, and didn't believe that they would have any great abilities.
In fact, to be selected by the Queen Mother and sent to the Hou Mansion to take care of Feng Mingwu, these two grandmothers really have some skills, plus the scheming and scheming that the two of them have cultivated in the palace for decades, if they change any of the back houses, it is easy to help Feng Mingwu gain a firm foothold.
It's just that they ran into Fengzhi Song, and Fengzhi Singer happened to pinch their handle.
Feng Mingwu didn't look down on the two grandmothers, and the two of them didn't feel that they were not reused, but they were faintly relieved, they were really afraid that Feng Mingwu really asked them to deal with Feng Zhige, wouldn't they be in a dilemma at that time?
To sum up, Feng Mingwu didn't ask the two grandmothers to take ideas, and after only thinking about it for a while, she decided that she was going to see Zhou Yuran in the Anguo Mansion.
So, a few days later, early in the morning, Feng Mingwu got up early, packed up and dressed up, and led people all the way to Anguo Mansion.
This is the first time Feng Mingwu has gone to the Anguo Mansion.
Since entering the door of the Anguo Mansion, Feng Mingwu felt that his eyes were a little insufficient.
Although the Marquis of Weiyuan Mansion and the Mansion of Anguo are both the homes of the founding heroes, in comparison, the Marquis Mansion of Weiyuan is a few points worse, and along the way, the luxury and sophistication in the Mansion of the Duke of Guo made Feng Mingwu feel eye-opening.
In fact, before Zhou Yuran married in, although the Anguo Mansion was large, it was very simple and simple, until An Guogong fell ill and Zhou Yuran controlled the middle feed of the Guogong Mansion, because of Zhou Yuran's preference, it gradually turned into such a luxurious fashion.
Zhou Yuran invited Feng Mingwu to come this time, which had an ulterior purpose, so as early as when the post was sent to the Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, he had already begun to instruct the subordinates in the mansion to carefully clean the mansion, and strive to make Feng Mingwu never want to leave after seeing the grandeur of the Guogong Mansion.
Zhou Yuran's purpose was indeed achieved lightly.
In Feng Mingwu's opinion, every brick and tile in this mansion is much better than that of the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion, not to mention the difference between Ning Yuantang, the main courtyard where Zhou Yuran lives, and the small remote courtyard where Feng Mingwu lives in the Marquis of Weiyuan's mansion.
Therefore, when Zhou Yuran saw Feng Mingwu, she was very satisfied and saw the desire to satisfy her from Feng Mingwu's eyes.
It's good to have a desire, what Zhou Yuran is afraid of is that Feng Mingwu is not interested in the flowery scene of the Guogong Mansion.
Outside the gate of Ningyuan Hall, Zhou Yuran took a dignified and enthusiastic smile on his face, took a few steps forward, held Feng Mingwu's hand affectionately, and pulled her inside, "This is the county lord of Yunyang, I have long heard that the county lord of Yunyang has won the love of the queen mother, and I originally thought that the county lord must not be comparable to ordinary people, but now when I see it, it is indeed worthy of the queen mother's favorite person, that is, I count the ladies in Beijing, I am afraid that there is no one who can cross the county lord." ”
Zhou Yuran has survived in this back house for so many years, and often goes in and out of the palace, it is not too easy to say these nice words, just a few words, and he successfully made Feng Mingwu smile constantly.
Feng Mingwu was indeed pleased by Zhou Yuran's words. (To be continued.) )
