Chapter 226: Roaring
Concubine Zhao Defei asked gloomily: "In this way, now the second brother and we are not only relatives, but also enemies?" ”
As soon as this was mentioned, Mrs. Zhao's anger also came up and said, "Who is he your second brother?" It's just a bastard of cheap life. We are, of course, enemies now. Only your eldest brother, sister-in-law doesn't know what ecstasy soup he has poured into him, but she has been facing him, it's really annoying? ”
Concubine Zhao really wanted to slap her. How could such an ignorant foolish woman be her mother?
Concubine Zhao Defei took a deep breath, suppressed her anger and said, "Isn't he my father's son?" Since it is my father's son, that is my second brother, don't say that he is really my second brother, even if he is not my second brother, but a member of our Zhao family, and the elder brother of the side branch, I have to recognize him. Because he is now a second-rank official, he is already the number one person in the court. Not to mention, he has been friends with the crown prince since he was a child, and no one can replace this affection. Although at that time, the crown prince was still just an inconspicuous prince. In the future, the succession of the crown prince is already a sure thing, and in the future, the second brother's power in the world is just around the corner. ”
Mrs. Zhao was stunned for a moment, and her face became bad.
Concubine Zhao Defei continued: "What's more, the second brother has already been married by the emperor and is about to become the son-in-law of the Xiao Chen family. Do you know what it means to be the son-in-law of the Chen family? You don't really think that this world is a royal world, and the four major families are just official eunuch families equal to our Zhongyi Mansion, right? ”
Mrs. Zhao said loudly: "The whole world is not the king's land, and the shore of the land is not the king's minister." Of course, this world is a royal world. What happened to the Four Great Families? It's not necessarily anything more than our Loyal Mansion. ”
Concubine Zhao Defei is really going to be angry, I really don't know how she, a loyal and righteous duchess, has been doing it for so many years. But also, she didn't even know the simplest thing, once the concubines met the emperor and died, they would be buried or go to the royal temple, and she knew that she was excluded from the circle of top noblewomen. Poor, she and her sister really thought that the palace was a good place, and they desperately wanted to enter. It's ridiculous.
Concubine Zhao Defei's voice turned cold: "Mother." How have you come through all these years? Just hanging out in the middle of a bunch of ladies who tout you? How many wives of the family have not befriended? Royal princesses. None of the princesses' daughters-in-law have ever befriended? Also, those people are high, where will they pat your ass, you naturally don't want to associate with them. Besides. Our family is a military general. The generals of this dynasty. Wenchen has always looked down on him. Naturally, they don't want to associate with us. Among the generals, our family is already the top. It is natural for the mother to know less. ”
Mrs. Zhao must have been unhappy when she heard her daughter say this about her. But her daughter's identity is there, and she can only be unhappy to put it in her stomach.
Concubine Zhao Defei said: "This world is shared by the four great families and the royal family. There are not many places where the royal power can be exercised. The orders of the four great clans of the royal kingdom were of no use at all. To put it bluntly, the clan lands of the four great families are like four independent kingdoms. Therefore, those girls of the family, they are as proud as a princess, which is also normal. Aren't they princesses in their land? At least she is also a clan girl, and her status is very high, so they are proud. Moreover, there is a rule in the royal family, the queens of the royal family can only be the daughters of the family. However, the emperors of the past dynasties were also very disgusted with this matter, and they also resisted, for example, the emperor of this dynasty hated the previous queen and finally abolished the queen from a family. Later, he strongly recommended Wan Guifei to take office, but unfortunately, Wan Guifei's identity was problematic, and she ended up dead. So, what good fruit can we eat when we enter the palace? ”
Mrs. Zhao really didn't know this, and she was stunned when she heard it.
Concubine Zhao Defei said with some self-deprecation: "We are boiling oil in the palace, competing for favor, and making tricks, what is the use?" In the end, she still couldn't be the queen. Because even if the emperor is willing to be the queen of someone like us, can the four great families agree? They have strong force, money, territory, and a strong army, can the royal family of Dachu resist it? The royal family of Da Chu can have a bad relationship with one family, but they will never dare to offend four families. That means being in the back and the back. In this way, what are we? Haha, it's just a joke, it's just a plaything. ”
Hearing her daughter destruct herself like this, Mrs. Zhao's heart was like a knife. How did she know these doorways? Just like at the beginning, she heard that after the emperor went, the palace concubines who had no children would be buried or enter the royal temple, which she never knew. Therefore, what her daughter said, she didn't know, and it was normal. Now, Mrs. Zhao is also a little remorseful, how have she been the princess and wife in the past few years?
Mrs. Zhao said apologetically: "Niangniang, it's all my mother's fault, my mother ignored these things before and didn't inquire about it properly, so I delayed your sister and delayed you." ”
Seeing her mother's apologetic look, Concubine Zhao De's heart softened a little and said: "I can't blame you all, after all, although our family is a prince, the foundation is too shallow." The rise of our family began with my father's generation. It's normal not to understand a lot of things. However, now that we understand, we cannot continue to suffer. ”
Concubine Zhao Defei continued: "The second brother is already the son-in-law of the Chen family, and this concubine of the Chen family, Chen Wenhui, is not an ordinary daughter of the Chen family, she has the trust of the queen mother and the prince. Not to mention, she is very powerful in her own right. She is the richest girl in Dachu as the emperor said himself. Also, she already has three cities in Nanyang and is in power. In the future, it is conceivable that the second brother and his family will definitely be able to influence the government. How can we have a grudge against such characters? We need to think about being close to them. Although the incident back then, it was his mother who killed his mother, but who didn't have such a struggle in the mansion? If his mother dares to enter the mansion as a concubine, she must have this awareness. It is normal for a concubine to be killed by the head of the house, sold by the housewife, and sold by the master. That's all in the past. We are now a family, and as long as we are good to them, they will be good to us, even if they are in the way. ”
Mrs. Zhao was still a little awkward and said, "Do you want us to be good to him?" ”
Concubine Zhao couldn't hold back anymore and roared: "What's wrong with being good to him?" What's in his way of you? His mother is competing with you for favor, but aren't you still in front of the Duchess of Zhongyi? Didn't your son inherit the position of a righteous man? Be good to him, and our family can be helped. If there is no war in the future, what will our family rely on, just to be an ordinary nobleman with that little bit of money? Without the support of a top family, can the eldest brother gain a firm foothold in the court? Can the third brother be a leader? Wouldn't I have to live a lonely life in this hall for the rest of my life? How old am I? And what about the third sister? After she gets married, she doesn't need the support of her mother's family? Her husband doesn't need the help of the top families in the imperial court? ”
Mrs. Zhao was shocked by her daughter.
Concubine Zhao Defei hasn't roared yet: "If you don't rely on the Xiao Chen family, don't rely on the second brother of the prince's henchmen, do you think that our Zhao family will rely on my uncles who eat white rice?" Rely on those dumb cousins? ”
Mrs. Zhao's face was not good-looking and said: "How can you say that about your uncle, then it is also your uncle, so it is a big unfilial piety." ”
Concubine Zhao Defei sneered and said, "Which one is my uncle?" Mother thought clearly, although I am a monk, I am still the emperor's concubine, and the emperor is not dead, who dares to be my uncle. My uncle is the emperor's uncle, in the Li family. Where did this relative come from? You don't recognize the second brother who can help the Zhao family, and you don't recognize it, but you don't recognize my sister-in-law, and you look down on the Xiao Chen family. But, my uncles who eat rice, you are very precious. ”
Mrs. Zhao was silent, her face gloomy.
Concubine Zhao Defei only felt that her heart and liver were hurting. She couldn't do anything, so she waved her hand and said, "Mother, go back and think about it." ”
After saying that, he got up and went to the inner room.
Mrs. Zhao's face was cloudy, and she went back hatefully.
After returning to the Grange, he cried a lot, and after the old Zhongyi Gong knew, Yaoyao didn't care.
Concubine Zhao Defei rested for a day, thinking in her heart, Zhao Chongyi is making an enmity with his mother, not to mention that his mother refuses to bow her head now, even if her mother bows her head, she is afraid that a person like Zhao Chongyi may not necessarily buy it. It's still another idea.
Speaking of which, I used to be too arrogant, and I was too deeply influenced by my mother, and I didn't bully my second brother less when I was a child. However, after all, the two are related by blood, as long as they take the initiative to show goodwill, the second brother is a person who is cold on the outside and hot on the inside, and it is difficult to refuse him. Over time, maybe it will warm his heart. I didn't see it, the same mother's child, has the eldest brother always had a good relationship with the second brother?
made up her mind, and from then on, Concubine Zhao often sent people to Liu's house to send some things to Zhao Chongyi, and sometimes gave some things to Rongxue. For example, the dew on the lotus leaves collected by the maids, the fragrant tea that they asked someone to make in the dojo, and some vegetarian snacks and other things, are not precious, but they are all full of heart.
Zhao Chongyi didn't take it to heart at first, but after many times, he couldn't help but think that although this sister was a concubine, she was forced to become a monk at a young age, which is also pitiful. Therefore, sometimes when he is free, he will go to visit Concubine Zhao Defei in the gym.
At this time, Concubine Zhao Defei was very happy, warmly entertained Zhao Chongyi, and would intentionally or unintentionally express her hard life.
In this way, Zhao Chongyi's compassion is stronger, his sympathy for Concubine Zhao Defei is deeper, and there are more contacts. (To be continued......)
