Chapter 200: Coming up with an idea
Two days later, the Zhao family happily welcomed Chen Yuanheng and his wife in the town. Lao Zhongyi took his sons to warmly entertain the Chen family and his wife.
Mrs. Zhao waited anxiously at home, and for a while, she remembered the grand occasion of her daughter's election in the palace, and the envious and hateful eyes of relatives and friends. Then, the eldest daughter died tragically, like a thunderbolt from the blue. Later, the cause of the daughter's death was found out, and it was caused by the jealousy of the girl who was not selected. This has already entered the struggle before entering the palace, and the eldest daughter has died in the first round, what do you think, how can you still think about sending the second daughter to the palace?
Although the second daughter has been rarely favored in the palace later, she has not been less calculated. Just falling and falling into the lake, other palace people are suspected of being poisoned countless times. In the middle of this, Yuwen also learned to be obedient in the palace, knowing that she had found a backer, and in the struggle between Emperor Chen and Concubine Wan, she chose the side of Emperor Chen. But what's going on with him, why didn't he think about Yuwen and offend Mrs. Bai of the Xiao Chen family?
Although the daughter of the director is favored and has taken refuge in the current queen, she has never been able to stand in a good position in the queen's camp. The queen has a lot of people in the palace. For example, the former Concubine Qian, for example, the two concubines of the Chen family, for example, the current Shihuang Guifei. Among these people, Concubine Qian was the first to follow the queen's mother, so naturally she couldn't be compared with her. Besides, she's dead. The Chen sisters are the queen's nieces and daughters, and they are the queen's descendants, so naturally they can't be compared with them. But what about the Shihuang Guifei? She entered the palace with her daughter Yuwen.
But when she first entered the palace, Shihuang Guifei was a small lowly nobleman. Her daughter Yuwen is already a Chinese mother. Moreover, in terms of appearance, Concubine Shi is also a step behind her own Yuwen, and in terms of family background, Concubine Shi cannot be compared with Yuwen, who is a loyal and righteous princess.
However, how smart is Emperor Shi's concubine, she and the queen are not related, but they fell in love with the county lord of Wenhui, and became a senior sister with the county lord of Wenhui, relying on the knot of the county lord of Wenhui. Connected with the queen. Let the queen look at her differently, the queen naturally arranged for her to sleep more often, praised her more in front of the emperor, and the emperor slowly favored her more. At last. actually made her give birth to a princess.
What a time for this princess to come. The emperor's favor for the little princess is already a well-known thing in China. It can be said that giving birth to this princess is more popular than giving birth to a prince. Concubine Shi suddenly changed from a noble person to the current imperial concubine, and she is really a latecomer. The speed of upgrading can be said to be rare in the entire Great Chu Dynasty.
What about your own Yuwen? still relied on his father to hand over the military power, and after retiring, he was crowned a concubine, which was two levels worse than the imperial concubine.
Doesn't this have anything to do with you? Think about it, I really hurt Yuwen. Mrs. Zhao's tears rained down.
After feeling guilty for a while, Mrs. Zhao turned from guilt to resentment. This Chen Wenhui already had affection for Zhao Chongyi at that time, but she didn't take care of Zhao Yuwen in the palace at all. On the contrary, she takes good care of a stone concubine who has nothing to do with it, what does she want to do? Don't you want to think about it, how will she gain a foothold when she enters the Zhao family in the future?
In a woman's life, none of her mother's relatives can be regarded as relatives, only the relatives of her in-laws are her own relatives. Because after he dies in the future, his in-laws will worship him. Could it be that it was enshrined by the mother's family? Speaking of which, for Chen Wenhui, Zhao Yuwen is her relative, even if it is the Chen sisters, her cousins have to stay aside, not to mention a concubine Shi, who has no relatives and no reason?
Mrs. Zhao really doesn't believe it, Chen Wenhui, as a daughter of a family, will have no common sense in this regard? If not, there is something wrong with her tutor. However, this is simply impossible for a daughter of a family, let alone a daughter of a family, even the daughters of ordinary people's families understand this truth. That's common sense. And she did it. One possibility is that she despises the Zhao family, despises herself, her future mother-in-law, and looks down on her future sisters-in-law and sisters-in-law. There is also a possibility that it is because of Zhao Chongyi. It is a well-known thing that everyone hates Zhao Chongyi, Yuwen, Yu Fei, and the deceased Yuman and Zhao Chongyi's relationship is not good. It may be that Zhao Chongyi hates their girls, so Chen Wenhui hates them. Didn't you see it, is Chen Wenhui and her eldest daughter-in-law Han have a good relationship?
If you think about it like this, that's the reason for Zhao Chongyi, and when she thought of this, Mrs. Zhao almost bit a mouthful of silver teeth. For this concubine's evil species, Mrs. Zhao hates it to the core, in fact, Mrs. Zhao can't stop dealing with Zhao Chongyi now, after all, she is Zhao Chongyi's mother-killing enemy, and the mother-killing hatred is incomprehensible. Instead of waiting for Zhao Chongyi to deal with him, it is better to take the lead and deal with the two of them first.
As soon as Mrs. Zhao made up her mind, she began to think about how to torture her future daughter-in-law, Chen Wenhui. Of course, she is still a little sensible, that is, this plan cannot be implemented now, first, she is still asking Xiao Chen's family to help save her daughter, and second, this Chen Wenhui has not yet married into her family, and she is not her mother-in-law, so naturally she can't torture her. Therefore, Mrs. Zhao will not destroy their marriage anymore, but will try her best to facilitate their marriage. When she entered the Zhao family, she was her mother-in-law, and the mother-in-law disciplined her daughter-in-law, which was justified, and even the queen couldn't control it.
Mrs. Zhao's heart suddenly calmed down, and she quietly waited for the three of Lao Zhongyi, father and son to come back.
waited for this time, and actually waited for the second half of the day, Zhao Chongli came back with the old Zhongyigong, Mrs. Zhao was startled, and after a closer look, she realized that it was the old Zhongyigong who was drunk. Busy began to ask the maid to play a fan, cook sobering soup, and change the clothes of the old loyal and righteous father.
When it was over, Lao Zhongyi fell asleep, and Mrs. Zhao was about to ask her sons, but Zhao Chongyi had already said to Zhao Chongli: "Big brother, I still have some things, I want to go to the East Palace, so I will leave first." β
After speaking, he didn't even look at Mrs. Zhao, and left directly. Mrs. Zhao had the heart to kill Zhao Chongyi in her heart. Zhao Chongli and Zhao Chongxin both knew why Zhao Chongyi and Mrs. Zhao were so stiff, and they were also a little bright.
When Zhao Chongyi left, Mrs. Zhao didn't do anything, and pulled her two sons to ask in detail, how was the situation.
Zhao Chongli said: "The Xiao Chen family is worthy of being born in a family, and we are at a loss for things, and there are still a few ways for people to do it. β
After speaking, he told Chen Yuanheng all the ideas. Mrs. Zhao was surprised and delighted, thought for a long time, and said: "Although there are many of these methods, the most suitable for us at the moment is to pray for oneself when we are sick." However, there are many difficulties in this method. How can this be sick, but it is a difficult problem, a minor illness is naturally not good, but pretending to be sick is also not good, and it cannot be self-defeating. Also, if you are really sick, it will not work, it was originally to save your second sister, if you don't save it, but make your second sister sick, it really outweighs the loss. β
Zhao Chongli said: "We also thought of this at the time, and my father also told Lord Chen, but Lord Chen didn't talk about it, but said something else. Later, my father talked about Chongyi's marriage under the pretext of an excuse, and I took the opportunity to say that it was the first time for my wife to preside over such a major event, and she was a little timid, and wanted Mrs. Chen to give me some guidance. Mrs. Chen has always had a good relationship with the Han family, so she agreed with a smile and said a lot of words to praise the Han family. I took the opportunity to show our family's dowry list to Mrs. Chen. Sure enough, Mrs. Chen was very happy at first glance, and Lord Chen, in the following conversation, inadvertently said that the relationship between their family and the Hei family was very good. The black family has an alchemy hall, medical skills, and pharmaceutical techniques, which are very magical, and there are even drugs that can make people fake their deaths, and even look like they are seriously ill. It's just that this is a secret, and I don't tell outsiders, and I haven't sold it. But if Lord Wen Hui comes forward, he will definitely be able to get it. β
Mrs. Zhao secretly hated it, but her face was not obvious: "That's good, I'm still worried about this, as long as there is a way." Since the county lord of Wen Hui can get it. Then we will ask Chongyi to go to the county lord of Wenhui, or let your family ask for it, thinking that the lord of Wenhui will give face to the Han family. β
Zhao Chongli thought in his heart, it was best for Mrs. Zhao to come forward in this matter. However, Mrs. Zhao has offended many people, and Zhao Chongyi is now hating her mother-in-law, how can she help her, and even if Chongyi is willing to help her sisters for the sake of her father, but their unmarried men and women can't meet now, how can Chongyi ask Wenhui County to host the event? But these complaints can't be said in person, and they still have to give their mother a face. He said: "I don't need Chongyi to come forward for this, Han can do it." β
Zhao Chongxin is younger after all, and his mind is simpler, when he thinks that the matter of how to save the second sister that he is worried about these days has been solved, he is happy in his heart, and he can't help but say: "Fortunately, my sister-in-law has always been virtuous and has a lot of good friends with people, otherwise this matter will really take a lot of trouble." β
Mrs. Zhao's face darkened in an instant, the Han family is virtuous and good friends with people, so she, who is a mother, the former Duchess of Zhongyi, is not virtuous? Offended by a lot of people?
When Zhao Chongli saw his mother's face, he knew that the younger brother had said the wrong thing again, so he hurriedly gave Zhao Chongxin a look. Zhao Chongxin thought that he had said the wrong thing, and couldn't help blushing.
Mrs. Zhao has the heart to teach her son a lesson. But when I saw my youngest son's still somewhat childish cheeks, I was embarrassed, and I couldn't help but feel a little distressed. After all, it is his own son. And he is the youngest son, and he has always loved him more, and now he is reluctant to blame him for a word.
Mrs. Zhao just said lightly: "The Han family is very good. Tell Han to prepare gifts, and reach out not to hit the smiling person. β
Zhao Chongli was very happy to see that his mother had let his younger brother go, and hurriedly changed the topic and said, "Yes." I will definitely sue SΓΉ Han. (To be continued......)
