Chapter 365: Alienation and Closeness
Xiang Lu has not been waiting by Le's side for many years, but he has become more free, and Le's temper is not the same for three days, and there are more times when he is resentful and violent, and the fifth prince Qi Huanjin is often angry, and he often hides alone and cries secretly when he is wronged.
Until one time, when the fifth prince was more than three years old, he was secretly crying once and was discovered by Xiang Lu, Xiang Lu saw that the child was crying so much that he couldn't breathe, and he was very worried, so he stepped forward to comfort him.
Xiang Lu has always spoken softly, at that time, the five princes who were immersed in boundless grievances felt that there was a place to vent when they met Xiang Lu, and since then, whenever the five princes have been wronged, especially when they are reprimanded by their own mother Concubine Le, he will most likely go to find Xiang Lu, because in Xiang Lu, the five princes can only feel what maternal love is.
Children are like this, when he was young, whoever was good to him and who loved him, he was more dependent on whom, now that he is six years old, Qi Huanjin is more willing to get along with Xiang Lu than his mother Concubine Le's.
Xiang Lu is also willing to coax this poor child, Xiang Lu has been with Le's side for many years, accompanying her to marry into the Yongwang Mansion, watching her arrogance after being favored, and also watching her madness after falling out of favor, has been accompanying her from the palace to the outside of the palace, witnessing Le's joys, sorrows, and sorrows, and also witnessing the child's gain.
Sometimes Xiang Lu is much smarter than Le's, she tried her best to persuade Le's when she was pampered, wanting to make Le's a little more restrained, but Cola didn't listen, but beat her up, since then, Xiang Lu no longer cares so much about Le's honor, because she knows that Le's appearance will naturally lead to bad consequences.
Sure enough, Le's was not arrogant for a long time, and he was stumped by the princess at that time, if it wasn't for Le's too wanton, maybe it wouldn't have forced the princess to make a big move, and directly gave a ruthless drug that not only caused Le's first pregnancy and miscarriage, but also almost ruined her body. Rao is like this, Le's still doesn't know how to restrain himself, relying on the favor of the prince at that time to indulge even more, Xiang Lu can only look at it. Sighed silently.
Until Xibao entered the house, Le's favor gradually decreased a lot, and Xibao gradually replaced Le's position, after such a blow, Le's was very negative and resentful at first. But fortunately, with the persuasion of her mother and Princess Heng, the Le family began to learn to restrain herself, but it was already too late at this time, and Qi You Daoxin had already given Xibao.
Le's also embarked on the road of falling out of favor, but what made Le's completely lose the emperor's heart is the child in Xiang Lu's arms now, Qi Huanjin, this is designed by Le's with a plan, for Qi You, this is the proof of being calculated, as long as the child is dangling in front of him, Qi You will remember the shame and resentment of being calculated.
Le's thought that the child would be her last plan. But she never expected that Qi You would be so disgusted that in the end, this child would become a sin and a burden that can never be shaken off.
Therefore, Le's also has a grudge against the child, but because of the reason why the queen was robbed of the phoenix seal before, Le's still has to take good care of his son, after all, it is better to have a son than not, at least she has an explanation for her mother's family.
said that Le's maiden family, that is, Prime Minister Le's mansion, has been very depressed over the years, thinking that he would give birth to a prince as the daughter of a concubine. It should be a more prominent reliance, but what they didn't expect was that this child never seemed to be treated by Qi You as the emperor, and they were also very anxious about this matter, but no matter how hard they tried. It seems that Qi You just can't see it, and they can only see it in their eyes and be anxious in their hearts.
After all, being a prince means that you can get a share of the power in the future, and even have the opportunity to become a treasure, but now the emperor has not paid attention to it at all, which makes the entire Le family a little like a fish in the throat.
And this qiē is a qiē. As the old man next to Le's side, Xiang Lu looked at it in his eyes, but she was so smart, but she was still a slave, and she could only worry silently in her heart.
She doesn't have any hope for Le's anymore, but for the child in her arms, Xiang Lu has other ideas, even if this child is not treated by the emperor, but he is still the emperor's child, even if the emperor doesn't like it, but it won't be treated badly, Xiang Lu doesn't expect this child to get a lot of status, she only hopes that this child can be rich and noble for a lifetime, and she also wants to regain the one that should belong to her own through this child.
Therefore, Xiang Lu is better than treating the five princes with other palace people, she wants to let the five princes slowly leave her, slowly favor her in her heart, and slowly achieve her goal.
Thinking of this, Xiang Lu hugged the five princes tightly and comforted him softly: "Okay, okay, the five princes are the most well-behaved, don't cry, don't cry, Aunt Xiang Lu isn't here, if you have any grievances, just say it, okay?" ”
The five princes listened to Xiang Lu's coaxing and were even more aggrieved, crying and trembling in Xiang Lu's arms, Xiang Lu held the back of the five princes and said gently: "Okay, good, we are wronged, wronged, Aunt Xiang Lu knows, Aunt Xiang Lu knows, is the mother scolded again?" ”
The fifth prince sobbed while crying intermittently: "Woo woo...... Aunt Xiang Lu ...... Woowoo...... I'm so wronged...... Why doesn't my father like me, and even my mother has to lose his temper with me...... Woowoo...... I just envy the fourth emperor brother to get the love of my father, and I am only in my mother's concubine...... Belch...... The concubine just talked about it, but the concubine didn't care that I was wronged...... Woowoo...... I don't want to go back! ”
"Good boy, good girl, your mother's concubine is already uncertain, you don't want to provoke her anymore, just tell me directly if you have anything in your heart in the future, so that your mother can be less angry, and you can be less wronged." Xiang Lu was relieved.
"Why...... Why can't I, all the children of the family in the palace school have their mother's favor and father's love, but why can't I have ...... Belch...... My father was about to forget me, but my mother still blamed me like this, saying that I was not angry and failed to keep my father's heart, Aunt Lu, I have worked hard, worked hard to read good books, worked hard to practice martial arts, and even the masters in the palace have praised me, but my father didn't care...... Whining...... Uh, I worked so hard, but my mother still resented me and blamed me, Aunt Xianglu, was my birth a mistake? The five princes poured the grievances in their hearts. Unintentionally, it was the reason why he was so painful.
Xiang Lu sighed in his heart: This child is really sensitive, but he can only continue to comfort: "Silly child, your birth is what many people are looking forward to, but your mother is the emperor's concubine." Naturally, I also hope to be favored and loved by the emperor because of you, but the emperor is really busy and can't spare so much effort, and your mother, as a concubine, is naturally disappointed and lonely, so this temperament is naturally not good. And you are your mother's child, she is naturally disappointed with you, so she will lose her temper with you. ”
Xiang Lu's words sounded like he was defending the Le family, but in fact, they were all falling into the ground, and every sentence poked into the hearts of the five princes.
The five princes were already angry with their mother's attitude, which Xiang Lu Yi said that he felt that this was because his mother was not favored by his father and was angry with him, and he was even more dissatisfied with his father because his mother fell out of favor.
Xiang Lu coaxed softly while gently wiping the tears on the little face of the fifth prince. Extremely gentle said: "The fifth prince, it is true that you are the emperor's child, but whether this prince is favored or not depends a lot on his biological mother, that is, your mother, you look at your royal brothers, the eldest prince because his mother concubine Gongsun is humble and courteous, and the emperor is also very trusting, so he is also very important to the eldest prince, you see that the second prince is the emperor's son-in-law, but because the queen made a mistake before." Even the second prince has been neglected for several years, and it has only recently been slowly reused, what about the third prince, because the Lu family is not very favored. There is no prominent status, and the fourth prince is the son of your father's favorite concubine, so he has such a preference, and your mother is like this, although you are not as good as the favor of the fourth prince. ”
"Is that really the case?" The fifth prince wondered.
"Fifth Prince, if you calm down a little and use some heart, you will be able to see these things very thoroughly. I know that the five princes really want to get the favor of your father, and it is difficult to achieve it by relying on your mother and concubine alone, and you have to learn to use your strength to make it easier. Xiang Lu explained.
"Leverage strength? So what should it be? The Fifth Prince asked hummingly.
"This is naturally simple, the fifth prince, who is the most favored by the emperor now, and who is the easiest to get close to the emperor?" Xiang Lu asked.
"Needless to say, it's naturally the Four Emperor Brothers!" Qi Huan snorted and said.
"Then you will first have a good relationship with the four princes, and slowly approach the circle of the four princes step by step, so that he can slowly accept you and be willing to play with you, in this way, the four princes go to see the emperor, then you can have five chances out of ten, so slowly and imperceptibly, the emperor will naturally pay attention to you because of the four princes, coupled with your hard work, the emperor will definitely understand your mind." Xiang Lu said slowly.
"Have a good relationship with the Four Emperor Brothers?" The fifth prince seemed to understand a little.
"That's right, you need to use the power of the four princes to achieve your ultimate goal, but you have to take your time in this matter, and you can't rush it." Xiang Lu instructed.
"How do you take your time?" The five princes came to be interested.
"To get close to a person and win his favor, first of all, you have to understand the person's likes and dislikes and temperament, and you must do what he likes and pretend to be unintentional, slowly invade his circle, neither humble nor arrogant, and share the same hatred and hatred with him, and share weal and woe, only in this way can he accept you more easily." Xiang Lu said.
"And what about after he accepts me?" The Fifth Prince continued to ask.
"Well, the next thing is much simpler, the fourth prince is a pure and straightforward person, naturally he likes the person, he will try his best to maintain it, help and bring it, when the emperor listens to more good things about you, then the emperor's attitude towards you will naturally be better, but ......" Xiang Lu hesitated a little.
"But what?" The fifth prince said eagerly.
"However, but your mother, Concubine De, should not like the concubine and the fourth prince very much, so you can't sue her about this matter, otherwise she will definitely be annoyed and angry, and you will never have a chance to get close to the emperor at that time, do you understand?" Xiang Lu's words were hinting that the fifth prince wanted to alienate his mother, the concubine Le.
"I understand, as long as I can get the favor of my father, I will temporarily hide this matter from my mother, Aunt Xianglu, you must also keep it secret for me." The fifth prince made up his mind.
Xiang Lu smiled slightly: "That's natural, as long as it's good for you, I'm willing to do it." ”
"Well, thank you, Aunt Xianglu!" The fifth prince finally leaned into Xiang Lu's arms with relief.
At this time, the corners of Xiang Lu's mouth were slightly upturned, and he was probably very proud. (To be continued.) )
