"And what should I think?" Shen Rou Ning said lightly: "My mother married away for some reason, but she became a noble concubine...... Such similar stories, from ancient times to the present, are there still few? ”

This kind of story, precisely because it happens all the time, will seem old-fashioned and uninspiring. And because it is old-fashioned and has no new ideas, it is only ten*, which is a fact that makes people believe.

Shen Rouning thought the same.

Mama Fan shook her head again and again, but gradually fell silent under Shen Rou's clear gaze, and finally smiled bitterly: "Girl, you are smart, the old slave has always known ......" But she didn't expect Shen Rouning to be so smart, even she, an old man who has lived most of her life and thinks she has experienced ups and downs, is also a little overwhelmed.

Thinking about it again, Shen Rouning grew up in the quiet and peaceful Shenjia Village, and no one taught her seriously...... This little lady of hers is only afraid of being smart and smart, and she is even better than her wife back then.

Mama Fan didn't know what to think, and sighed after a while: "Girl, it's not that the old slave refuses to tell you the truth, it's just that ......" She was very embarrassed, shook her head and said: "In short, your concubine Niangniang is quite favored now, you go back to Chen's Mansion, between your words and deeds with the young master, don't let people catch the handle." ”

"Your concubine is very favored?" Shen Rouning asked.

"That's right." Fan Mama said: "Today's Holy Empress is from a noble Liao family, quite famous, giving birth to the eldest princess and the second son of the emperor...... She added: "The queen's maiden old lady has been appointed to the position of the princess, and she is very courteous to the emperor, and has been responsible for teaching the descendants of the royal family, and is regarded as a holy teacher." ”

"In addition to the queen, there is only one concubine Deng in the palace, who raised the eldest son of the emperor...... Counting down, it is the most noble concubine. ”

"If it weren't for the noble concubine's mother's daughter, she would have no name when she first entered the mansion. And there has been nothing to do, but I am afraid that I have already become one of the four concubines. ”

"There is only one queen and one concubine today?" Shen Rouning was a little surprised: "There are so few masters in the palace? ”

Mama Shen nodded: "In addition to the six years of his accession to the throne, the saint has only been elected once, and only eight noble girls have been admitted to the palace, and now the time is still short, so the position is not high." ”

"None of the nobles who entered the palace later were from prominent backgrounds?" Shen Rouning asked again, "When the Holy Lord first ascended the throne, didn't he want to get the support of the powerful and the lords?" "The first emperor. The foundation is always a little shaky. Therefore, it is necessary to gain the support of those important ministers and magnates. It is of great significance to recruit noble ladies into the palace. But the nobles selected last time were not allowed to enter the palace, and it was obvious that their original backgrounds were average. I need to work so hard and climb up slowly.

Emperor Qinglong acted differently.

Shen Rouning couldn't help but think.

Mama Fan was stunned after hearing what Shen Rouning said, shook her head and said, "The girl said it." The old slave doesn't understand very well. However, the last small election was indeed only a noble girl selected from the official palace of the sixth to fourth ranks......"

6th to 4th grade...... In the capital full of powerful people. It's simply not enough to see.

Shen Rou pondered for a while, and couldn't help asking, "Does that grandma know, how is she today?" ”

Mama Fan shook her head: "...... The old slave has not been in the capital for a long time, and he does not understand these big things outside. ”

After she returned to Beijing. I asked for news from my youngest son several times, but I never cared about this. Aren't these important things in the government? The fourth girl, a little girl who is only more than ten years old, how could she ask this?

Don't. What did she guess?

When Mama Fan thought of this, she panicked. couldn't help but raise his eyes to look at Shen Rouning, who knew that he was facing Shen Rouning's bright eyes, for some reason his liver trembled, and hurriedly removed his eyes, wanting to say something to cover up, but he didn't know what to say-

The fourth girl, a delicate and gentle girl who never worries about a little girl on weekdays, how to look at people, as if she can see people from the inside out! She's just a ten-year-old girl!

Perhaps, it was really what kind of rumor she had with the young master of her cousin these few times?

Mama Fan frowned, and her heart was very hesitant.

Shen Rou condensed her expression, wrote down Mama Fan's weakness and panic, saw that Mama Fan was in a trance, thought about it, and asked something else: "...... Brother Rong and I met Lord Mingjia in Mingyue Tower today...... I heard that the Moon Tower is an inheritance that is now given to Prince Ying...... Mama, why don't you tell me about the past between the emperor and Prince Ying? ”

Imperial power confuses people, and the royal family is the place where blood and family affection are the least important. Moreover, Prince Ying is the elder brother of Emperor Qinglong...... The relationship between the two brothers is so good, and they don't look like they have any mustard? Even if the relationship is good, shouldn't it be about being an orderly elder brother and sitting on the throne?

Shen Rouning wanted to know the story inside.

Mama Fan began to tell.

If you say why Emperor Qinglong, who is his younger brother, made the throne, the reason is actually very simple. That is, Prince Ying had an accident a long time ago and broke his leg, and since then he has been left with a disability, inconvenient legs and feet, and has become a lame.

The legs and feet are inconvenient, so naturally they have no chance with the big position. It's not just one prince.

But Prince Ying is a capable person.

He and Imagami Taoguang were obscure for a few years, and then fully assisted Imagami, and finally pushed Imakami to that position. It is precisely because Prince Ying cannot ascend the throne, he is a brother, and he has done a lot of things together, so there is no doubt that there is no doubt about the brothers now, and the emperor treats Prince Ying very generously.

The emperor also likes to be praised for the deep brotherhood between him and Prince Ying. So, these things, everybody knows.

"Then how did Prince Ying get hurt? It can't really be an accident. Shen Rou condensed.

Mama Fan shook her head, but said, "...... The old slave is just a servant woman in the inner house, where do you know these details. If the girl wants to know, ask the old lady later. ”

"Oh?" Shen Rouning rolled her eyes and asked, "Can I ask?" Won't my grandfather dislike me because of this? I'm a girl. ”

Mama Fan laughed and said firmly, "The girl just asks." ”

"The old lady treats the juniors strictly and tolerantly, and does not think that the girl's family should turn a deaf ear to what is going on outside the window. Back then, when my wife was in the boudoir, I often talked with the old lady in the study. Basically, when the wife asked, the master would answer seriously, and never blamed. ”

Conversations in the study are generally about serious matters, rather than trivial matters in the inner house. Old Mrs. Chen was willing to allow Mrs. Shen Si to enter the study to speak, and it seemed that she was really very open-minded and tolerant.

Shen Rouning probably had a number in her heart, and asked some trivial things on the side, before thanking Mama Fan and letting her out.

Mama Fan came out of Shen Rouning's small study, stood under the porch, looked up at the sky, and couldn't help wiping a handful of sweat on her head, before she raised her feet again and returned to the upper room to serve Mrs. Shen Si. (To be continued)
