Chapter 121: For the sake of my daughter
It didn't take long for Miss Zheng Yun of the Zheng family to come, but her face was obviously a little bad, and she couldn't even cover it with fat powder.
Everyone naturally knows that Zheng Yun is a quasi-eighth princess, Concubine Li was demoted to a concubine, and the status of the eighth prince plummeted, and her mood naturally couldn't get better. Originally, the eighth prince was also favored by Wenzong, and everyone felt that except for the eldest prince, he had the greatest opportunity.
"Sister Yun, wait for us to go fishing, come quickly." Bai Jingxi greeted warmly.
Jin Wen looked at the position that Bai Jingxi pointed to Zheng Yun, and smiled clearly, Miss Shijia, there is really no one who can stay out of the matter completely. She should know what she is calling today.
This time, more than a dozen young ladies came, plus the maids brought by each of them, and it was very lively to crowd each other.
The lake of Baifu is a long and narrow waterway around the rockery, the lotus pavilion on the water surface, the weeping willows are planted on the roadside, and people stay under the trees by the lake, which is cool and not afraid of the sun.
The maids sprinkled a little fish food here, attracting the fish from the upstream and downstream to this area, and the ladies put down the fishing rods, and some impatient ones were thrown there for the maids to watch, chatting with each other.
Zheng Yun sat on the edge of a mountain rock with a maid, and when she received Bai Jingxi's post, she didn't want to come. But at home, several cousins accused Sang of scolding Huai and making fun of her, and she couldn't stay.
Her mother told her that after Concubine Li was demoted to a concubine, she would have to rely on the queen mother, and it would never hurt to have a good relationship with the Bai family.
After this incident came out, the eighth prince sent a message to their family, hoping that her brother could take advantage of the convenience of the commander of the Ouchi guards to investigate, but neither her father nor her brother agreed.
She knew that her mother was just a step-room, and her brother and herself were not the same mother, and now that Concubine Li had been demoted to a concubine again, the family naturally didn't want to cause trouble. When she was just designated as the eighth princess, the sisters in the family were envious, and the elders also attached great importance to it, but now as soon as the news came, all she saw was a cold face.
Instead of looking at the cold face at home, it's better to go out for a walk. So she went out early in the morning to relax.
Seeing the laughter of the other ladies, she really couldn't lift her energy, bored waving the fishing rod, not like fishing but like catching fish, suddenly, behind the vine behind her, there was a chatting sound.
"Sister Wen, why do you say that Concubine Li will not be calculated?" A voice that was impressive was Bai Jingxi, Sister Wen, Zheng Yun thought about it for a while, among the young ladies who came today, only Han Jinwen was unfamiliar with her, and her reputation among the ladies was not low now, but she was not very visible to others.
How did you come today? By the way, her brother is helping His Royal Highness the Prince, and the Bai family is the grandfather of His Royal Highness the Prince.
"In the palace, there are not many people who can calculate the concubine." Han Jinwen's voice was slow and logical.
"Sister Wen, do you know what the specifics are? My father and mother didn't tell us. Bai Jingxi was obviously curious.
"I've heard a few words, it seems that the crown princess Niangniang punished a palace person, and then the palace person went to sue the royal court, and the lady concubine Niangniang checked it out, and the palace person turned out to be Concubine Li's person."
Everyone knows about this, and they know more than this, for example, the palace man falsely accused the East Palace of having a dragon robe.
Bai Jingxi said very regretfully: "Concubine Li shouldn't have let the people in that palace die, and now there is no proof of death." ”
"Not necessarily, I heard that every palace person in the palace has a file, and the queen must know. Forget it, Sister Jingxi, don't talk about the things in the palace, we are all hearsay, in fact, Miss Zheng should share the worries of Concubine Li the most. ”
"Well, but Sister Yun can't help it, she is still the same as us now, how can she know about the things in the palace."
"She can't control it, Concubine Li is still in the palace. She just needs to remind her, and Concubine Li can also go to the queen's mother. ”
"Sister Wen, let's go over there and have a look, and I'll go greet the guests again."
The two of them spoke and their voices faded away, apparently Bai Jingxi greeting the guests along the lake.
What should I do most for Concubine Li's mother?
Let Concubine Li Niangniang check that palace person to avenge herself?
Zheng Yun felt that this was reasonable, if it could be proved that there was another mastermind behind that palace person, then it couldn't be punished on Concubine Li's head, or could the mastermind be found out?
The more Zheng Yun thought about it, the more she felt that it made sense, and she couldn't sit still with excitement when she stood up, if Concubine Li could get away with it, then she would naturally be promoted to a concubine again. Take another 10,000 steps back and say, even if it is in vain in the end, but my prospective daughter-in-law has finally come up with an idea, which shows that she has the heart to advance and retreat together, and it is good to let the eighth prince see his heart. This matter may allow the mother to enter the palace to ask for a meeting, and then if there is a chance to remind Concubine Li.
She couldn't stay any longer, so she found Bai Jingxi and said, "Sister Jingxi, I just remembered that what my mother told me in the morning has not been done, so I have to go back first." ”
"Sister Yun went back so early? Later, I will talk about grilled fish. ”
"There's something going on today, let's do it another day. Thank you Sister Jingxi for your ingenious arrangement, I am very happy to enjoy the flowers in the garden today. ”
"Then I'll send Sister Yun out and play together another day." Bai Jingxi had no choice but to send Zheng Yun to leave first.
When the other ladies heard that Zheng Yun had something to do, they also said goodbye to her.
Zheng Yun got into the carriage back home, and as soon as she got home, she found Mrs. Zheng: "Mother, my daughter has something to discuss with you." ”
"What's the matter?" Mrs. Zheng took her daughter back to her main courtyard and asked.
"Can you go into the palace, or ask your father to deliver a message to the Eighth Emperor, so that Concubine Li Niangniang and His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness can pay attention to the identity of the dead palace person?"
"Your father won't agree to that." Mrs. Zheng affirmed that although she was the wife in charge of the Zheng family, Zheng Jing never talked about outside affairs with them, and told them that the Zheng family only listened to the saints, even if his daughter was going to be the eighth imperial concubine, he would not change his position, and he would not allow them to talk much outside.
Mrs. Zheng was naturally anxious for her daughter, but she was powerless.
"Mother, can you enter the palace and ask to see the queen, and see if you can remind Concubine Li when the opportunity comes."
"Yun'er, don't worry, mother knows your mind." Of course, Mrs. Zheng knew what her daughter meant, and this was indeed an opportunity to show favor to her future mother-in-law, "But the idea you thought of, Concubine Li Niangniang and His Royal Highness the Eighth may not have thought of it." ”
Yes, Concubine Li and His Royal Highness are not fools, "But they may not be able to find out about that palace person, they can ask the queen mother for help." ”
"Yun'er, do you know what it means if they look for the queen?" Mrs. Zheng looked at her daughter with a look of ignorance, her daughter hadn't experienced much at all, "At this time, ask the queen for help, and the Eighth Highness means that she is following the prince." ”
"That's better than following the eldest prince." Zheng Yun blurted out.
Yes, everyone knows that it is definitely better to follow the crown prince than to follow the eldest prince, at least His Royal Highness the former crown prince is wise and virtuous, and the queen mother in the harem is benevolent and tolerant, is it just that His Royal Highness the Eighth Highness has put it down?
Mrs. Zheng thought about it for a while, and felt that she should at least pass on her daughter's desire to share her worries for His Royal Highness, looking at Zheng Jing's appearance, he would not help for her daughter. Without the support of her mother's family, if the daughter wants to live well in her husband's family, she can only win respect.
"You stay at home well, and your mother will do her best to hand over the sign to the palace and ask to see you." Mrs. Zheng decided. (To be continued.) )
