Chapter 152: Self-blackening

Back at the Dong Mansion, Mrs. Dong asked Xiu Mu's two sons at home and her daughter-in-law to call them to Jingshui Courtyard.

After asking Mu Jinrou to tell what happened today, she said angrily: "Tell me, can my wife bear this matter?" ”

The two daughters-in-law looked at each other and thought, "You have said all these things, so naturally you can't bear it." They looked at their husbands at the same time, and they had to make up their minds about this matter.

Mu Jinrou was very reluctant to go, always feeling that she was dragging them down, and said with a bitter face: "Two uncles, it's really too ......." ”

"Ahem!" Dong Qichang stretched out his hand to stop her words, and said seriously: "Rou girl, we are your uncle, that is, your mother's uncle, you have no mother since you were a child, and your uncle is naturally the dearest." Don't talk about this big sesame thing, even if you and your mother pierce the sky, my second brother and I will follow behind to make up for it. ”

"That's it! Big brother is right. What a thing! Dong Qisheng also waved his big hand.

"Uncle, second uncle!" Mu Jinrou was really moved, relatives, relatives.

Mrs. Dong coughed twice, slapped the table and said, "What do you mean by your old lady stabbing the sky?" Am I the kind of person who gets into trouble? ”

"No, no, no!" The two sons and daughter-in-law waved their hands and shook their heads at the same time.

Looking at each other again, they really aren't the kind of people who get into trouble, just occasionally, occasionally.

"Humph! Count you as acquaintances. Old Madam Dong pulled Mu Jinrou over and said, "Tell me, what did the Hu family do?" There are three girls in front of her who are not married, and she can't wait to sell soft girls, but she hasn't had time yet. And in the grandfather's filial piety, this is the housewife's doing? ”

"Mother is right, how can this be done by the housewife?" They all felt right. Filial piety comes first, and there is nothing more important than filial piety.

"What should I do?" Mrs. Dong asked rhetorically.

The two masters of the Dong family frowned in unison, they were thinking, and the room was extremely quiet.

Mu Jinrou could even hear the sound of her heartbeat, and she wanted their help. If she is allowed to make a move, I'm afraid she can only use violence, and she is really not good at conspiracy or anything.

Long. Dong Qichang said: "Why don't your sons ask Your Majesty for a holy decree?" ”

"Divine decree?" Mu Jinrou was stunned, can she use such a tall Dongdong? It is said whether the decree is round or square.

Old Madam Dong frowned and said, "Is it feasible?" ”

Dong Qisheng looked at the eldest brother and asked, "Big brother, tell me your plan?" ”

So everyone's eyes were focused on Dong Qichang.

Dong Qichang smiled and said, "I think it's feasible." Mother, do you know that Your Majesty has summoned our brother to Beijing as officials? ”

"That's not because your father has been guarding the Great Northwest all year round. Your brothers have been honest all these years! Mrs. Dong said with a smile, this is also what she is most proud of.

"That's one of them." Dong Qichang explained: "Our Dong family has been an official for generations, and everyone knows this. The second is the situation in Beijing today, Your Majesty is getting older. The crown prince is weak again. Almost half of the ministers were inclined to the Qin king, and he needed a new force to balance the relationship. ”

Dong Qisheng nodded again and again, "Big brother has a point. ”

Mrs. Dong asked, "Then, what does this have to do with asking for a holy decree for the soft girl?" ”

She didn't think that His Majesty the Emperor could make a holy decree for a little girl.

"Let the second brother talk about this matter." Dong Qichang said with a smile, brothers have always advanced and retreated together.

At this time, the door of the house was closed, and the slaves and maidservants who were waiting were gone.

Dong Qisheng also smiled: "Then the little brother will make a bold judgment." Your Majesty has indeed taken a fancy to the integrity of our Dong family. Although this is the foundation of our Dong family's interests, it is not without danger. His Majesty summoned us to Beijing to balance the relationship between the various forces in Beijing. But it would not be good if it was a courtier who had no shortcomings in him.

Your Majesty will think that our Dong family is not easy to control, and we have the righteousness! Then we only have to blacken ourselves, and how to blacken ourselves is also learned. In the past, thanks to my mother's quarrels with the officials and wives of various families from time to time, my brother's official position in the northwest was able to sit peacefully.

Now that she has entered Beijing, the matter of the soft girl is equivalent to the quarrel between her mother and others before. And the mother of the soft girl's marriage wants to take it all in, it stands to reason that we really don't take advantage of this matter, but it is only by not taking advantage of the child that we can get a holy decree, and it is okay to suppress people with power, in short, we are in charge of the family affairs of the Stable Bofu.

Doesn't this give His Majesty the Emperor a handle? Who doesn't know that our brother is the most filial, and marrying a daughter-in-law is also one in a hundred, my mother asked us to go east, and we didn't dare to go west! ”

He said a lot of things freely, but he pleased his sister-in-law and his daughter-in-law, and he was satisfied! Unconsciously realized that Old Madam Dong's face was darker than the bottom of the pot.

Mu Jinrou's face is not very good-looking, and she has turned herself into a handle and is sending it to others.

"Humph!" Old Madam Dong slapped the table, turned her head and looked for a feather duster, "Dong Qisheng, what are you talking about!" What do you mean by your wife having a quarrel with other officials' wives? ”

A woman's thinking is always different from others, even if the woman is not young!

Mu Jinrou pulled Mrs. Dong hard, saving her from smashing the feather duster on her second uncle, she really couldn't smile bitterly. Is this a good or a bad handle?

"Mother! Mother, be merciful! Dong Qisheng didn't run, and knelt down for Mrs. Dong.

When Mrs. Dong's feather duster was about to fall, she hit the Luohan bed hard, "You will try to talk in the future?" ”

Dong Qisheng got up with a smile, "Don't dare anymore." ”

He knew that his wife was reluctant to beat him, so he turned his head and squeezed his eyes at the eldest brother, and the two brothers were familiar with this matter.

The two aunts also covered their mouths and laughed on the side, it was not the first time they had seen this meeting, and every time they saw it, they felt like laughing.

Mu Jinrou felt warm, what a good family!

Old Madam Dong drank a cup of hot tea and asked, "No matter what Your Majesty's attitude is, as long as our Dong family is loyal to the king and loves the people, there is nothing wrong with it." The crown prince is in danger, and the king of Qin is dominant, does Your Majesty really want to abolish the heir? ”

Dong Qichang said: "Mother is cautious about this matter. Then he said to the others, "Remember." ”

Mu Jinrou bowed first and said yes.

"How did Your Majesty succeed from the Emperor back then? No one knows it better than he does. He is the eldest son, and King Zheng is the second son, who is deeply loved by the emperor. ”

"What the hell does that mean?" Mrs. Dong still doesn't understand.

Dong Qichang said: "Because of this, he may want to see who is most suitable for that position." The ascension to the throne of all emperors was not accompanied by blood? Just look at who can endure the most, who can toss the most, and no one dares to win until the last moment! ”

Mu Jinrou understood, what the eldest uncle said was really right.

The next day, when the two masters of the Dong family went to court, Mrs. Dong called Mu Jinrou to the Jingshui Courtyard, preparing to go to Andingbo's Mansion today to find an explanation. (To be continued......)
