Chapter 33: Procrastination
Situ Yang came out of the study and went directly to Han's Mei Yuan, first, to let Han see that he was unharmed, so that Han could relax; The second is to tell the Han clan the good news that General Han and the Jianguo Guild will enter the capital together at noon three days later, so that the Han clan will also be happy (Chapter 33).
Situ Kong went to the old lady's Ci'an Garden, and it happened to be dinner time, and the old lady naturally thought that Situ Kong was here to accompany her to eat, and her face suddenly smiled.
No matter how much Situ Kong defends Situ Yang, in the end, he didn't come to dine with her, an old lady?
The old lady's thoughts were all written on her face, and Situ Kong let the old lady think what she wanted, but in front of her was his own mother, and having a meal with her was also a piece of filial piety for him as a son, but what should happen after the meal naturally still has to be.
It is rare for the mother and son to have a meal together, and the atmosphere is naturally excellent.
After the meal, Situ Kong waved his hand and sent all the people in the old lady's house out, leaving only Mama An beside the old lady.
Mama An is the old lady's dowry ring, she has been with the old lady for decades, and her affection with the old lady is extraordinary, and she is also one of the few people in the Hou Mansion who watched Situ Kong grow up.
When Mama An waited for the old lady to clean her face and rinse her mouth, sit down on the couch again, and serve fragrant tea, Situ Kong will talk about the matter: "Mother, today the saint mentioned the matter of the establishment of the prince of the Hou Mansion again. ”
"Why delay this for a few more years? You are still young, there is no need to be in such a hurry to settle the position of the prince. The old lady's eyes flashed, and a shadow flashed across her face, and she paused for a moment.
"The meaning of the saint is that this matter is easy to be sooner rather than later, and he specifically mentioned the appreciation of the gentlemen of the Tai Academy for Yang'er, and the implication is that the child wants to ask Liyang'er to be the son of the world." Situ Kong moved his eyelids, he knew that if the old lady agreed to ask Situ Yang to be the prince, the only way to do this was to lift the saint out and press her.
Situ Kong knew that the old lady had always disliked the Han family, and even the son and daughter born by the Han family were not liked by the old lady, even if Situ Yang and Situ Jiao occupied the elder sister, they would not be able to enter the eyes of the old lady.
And the old lady has not given up the idea of promoting the Xiaolin clan to a flat wife for more than ten years, just thinking about making Situ An, who is born by the Kobayashi clan, the son of the world, but this is absolutely impossible!
In the eyes of the old lady, Mrs. Hou should never be the Han family, but in Situ Kong's heart, only the Han family is his wife, and Situ Yang and Situ Jiao are his children.
As for the Xiaolin family, well, she is so willing to be a concubine, that is a concubine, and she can only be a concubine for the rest of her life!
The old lady was silent, took a sip of the teacup in her hand, and looked at Situ Kong with an unclear gaze.
Although Situ Kong's face was calm, he let the old lady look at it, but there was a little drum in his heart, what kind of thoughts his mother was, could he still not know?
Originally, Situ Kong was still thinking that even if he wanted to disobey the old lady today, he would give the position of the son of the world, but when the old lady looked at him like this, his heart couldn't help but soften again.
Thinking of what the old lady had paid for him when he was young, Situ Kong couldn't make up his mind to disobey the old lady.
Seeing that Situ Kong's face softened a little, the old lady naturally knew that it should be stopped: "Since the saint did not say it explicitly, this matter is naturally not in a hurry." Wait for tomorrow to hand over a sign, enter the palace to find out what Concubine Hui means, and then make plans. ”
Concubine Hui was born in the Marquis of Anning's Mansion, but she was not born to the old lady, but from the big girl ring next to the old lady.
This big girl's name is Miaozhi, she is a woman with extremely outstanding appearance, but her temperament is quite soft, although she is nominally the big girl ring next to the old lady, it was originally the Lin family specially prepared for the old lady to envelop the husband, so when the old lady was pregnant with Situ Kong, she personally opened her face for Miaozhi and directly raised her to become an aunt, and she was called Aunt Miao.
Aunt Miao and the old lady are naturally different from other concubines, and unlike the other aunts who have no children and no daughters in the old marquis's room, Aunt Miao is fortunate to conceive a child and give birth to a child.
It's just that her life is not too good, and she only has such a daughter in her life.
Although the old lady gave birth to a daughter before giving birth to Situ, when Concubine Hui was born, she was still directly recorded in the name of the old lady, and she can be regarded as half of the concubine of the Hou Mansion.
It's just that Concubine Hui's biological mother, Aunt Miao, is not a blessed person in the end.
Although he gave birth to a daughter for the old marquis, he was not liked by the old marquis.
finally survived until her daughter grew up, and when she reached the age where she could see each other's marriage, she was sent to the palace in the draft, so Aunt Miao was depressed all day long, and in the winter when Concubine Hui entered the palace for two years, she went because of a wind and cold, and she didn't see her daughter again until she died.
Concubine Hui has a mentality towards the old lady's mother-in-law, the old lady can't understand it, but Situ Kong sees it very clearly, it's just the relationship between a concubine and her mother-in-law, but for him, a half-brother, there is still a bit of family affection because of this blood relationship.
But the old lady doesn't think so, she thinks she is Concubine Hui's mother-in-law, and Concubine Hui has the opportunity to enter the palace draft by her name, so she has today's days of being a master, and Concubine Hui has to accept her a little affection no matter what she says.
"I'm afraid that Concubine Hui won't talk too much about this matter, and Niang should know that today's saint is the most jealous of palace concubines interfering in the affairs of the court. Mother, don't make Concubine Hui embarrassed. The look in Situ Kong's eyes flashed again, and then he raised his eyelids to look at the old lady and reminded seriously.
"It's just to ask Concubine Hui for advice, why make her embarrassed. In your eyes, my mother is such a person who doesn't know what to do? The old lady's face was a little ugly, and she already understood Situ Kong's attitude towards inviting the prince.
But no matter what, she can't just let the child born by the Han family set up a son, she knows very well that if Situ Yang is allowed to set up a son, once Situ Kong dies and Situ Yang inherits the title, the Lin family is afraid that they will never be able to borrow the help of the Hou Mansion again.
Without the support of the Hou Mansion, the Lin family is afraid that it will decline soon, which is something that the old lady will never allow to happen.
The mother and son had their own ideas, but Situ Kong didn't want to disobey the old lady at this time, not to mention that he already knew how the old lady would behave when he mentioned asking for the prince.
The old lady proposed to enter the palace to discuss with Concubine Hui, just to delay time, so that Situ An, who she valued, would have a chance to compete with Situ Yang, but such an opportunity was absolutely impossible.
Situ Kong's eyes flashed with a hint of sarcasm and coldness, but the old lady was immersed in her own thoughts and didn't notice it.
"As long as the mother remembers not to embarrass Concubine Hui, the child will not prevent her mother from entering the palace to visit Concubine Hui. It would be great if I could get the mention of Concubine Hui. Situ Kong removed the look in his eyes and said in a respectful tone.
