Chapter 015 Lies

The two men who came in were the two cousins of my aunt's family.

Ling Qingyun stood up.

She saluted and called her second cousin and third cousin.

The two cousins returned the salute, and the second cousin did not smile and looked solemn; The third cousin was full of spring breeze and had a warm smile.

"You're sick, aren't you? Listen to your eldest brother, you are still recuperating. The third cousin, An Dong, said with concern, "Look at you, you have indeed lost some weight."

Ling Qingyun's eldest brother studied in the sect.

In this dynasty, the imperial examination was greatly promoted, and the society became a trend.

There are also many schools run by the imperial court in Beijing, including Guozixue, Taixue, Zongxue, etc.

The children and grandchildren of officials above the third grade can enter the country to study; The children and grandchildren of officials above the fifth grade can enter Taixue; Children and grandchildren who have a title but no official title can enter the sect.

There was no official position in the Jin State Mansion, so Ling Qingyun's eldest brother entered the sect.

And the An family, who has both a knighthood and an official position, can go to any school they want to go to.

Guozixue is the son of the three products, and the teacher is strict in teaching and rigorous in learning; And Zongxue, most of them are noble children, and reading is just vassal elegance.

An Dong was naughty and didn't like Guozixue, so he entered Zongxue.

He and Ling Qingyun's eldest brother are classmates.

"It's a lot better, I'm tired of my cousin." Ling Qingyun said.

Both aunt and mother laughed.

The second cousin, An Wei, did not talk to Ling Qingyun alone, he just gave Ling Qingyun's mother a salute and did not look at Ling Qingyun.

He was cold, and there was no smile on his face.

After the third cousin An Dong gave Ling Qingyun's mother a salute, he sat down beside her, took her arm, and said coquettishly: "Auntie, can you give me Yun'er?" I'll take care of her for you. ”

Ling Qingyun was shocked and looked at her mother in amazement, for fear that her mother would give her life if she nodded.

Ling Qingyun didn't want to get married now, she hadn't figured out her own affairs yet.

She's been getting weird lately.

Mother laughed.

The aunt coughed lightly, knocked down An Dong's head, and said, "Last time your sister-in-law's cousin, you also told you, and now you are provoking Yun'er again."

The third cousin is a merry and amorous character. When he saw a good-looking girl, he wanted to marry her.

He is sixteen years old, and his mind is still immature, like a child.

"Last time, it was a joke." An Dong had a hippie smile on his face, sticking to Ling Qingyun's mother, "Auntie, I'm sincere to Yun'er." ”

The second cousin on the side, An Wei, has a slight pursed lip line.

Ling Qingyun caught a glimpse of him and felt that he was a little unhappy. However, as soon as he entered the room, he had such a stern expression, it may be that Ling Qingyun was thinking too much, and Ling Qingyun quietly withdrew his gaze.

"Good boy, you treat Wan'er like a sister, don't you know?" Jing finally spoke, and said with a smile, "You are relieved, my aunt will take care of Wan'er in the future, and she won't worry you, okay?" ”

Anton smiled and stopped messing around.

Ling Qingyun also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.

The second cousin An Wei's lips were also slightly loosened.

"Don't mess around!" Aunt warned Anton, "Talking about things all day long, Yun'er is uncomfortable!" ”

An Dong stood up at this time, walked to Ling Qingyun's side, and said with a smile: "Yun'er knows me, we have been good since we were young, so she doesn't blame me." Isn't it? ”

"yes." Ling Qingyun smiled softly and said.

My aunt smiled too.

An Dong has loved playing with Ling Qingyun since he was a child. An Dong doesn't have a sister, and he wants a sister very much, so he is very close to Ling Qingyun.

It's just that Ling Qingyun doesn't remember anymore, so when An Dong said those words, her face was a little bad.

The aunt was afraid that she would be displeased, so she explained.

Seeing that they were still the same, the aunt said to Brother Andong: "You take Wan'er, look at your sister-in-law." ”

The eldest cousin of my aunt's family, who is currently serving in the Thorn Shi military camp on Jingnan Road, will not be able to return home until several months.

He was in Xinyang Mansion.

His wife was the niece of the eldest princess of Runing. The eldest princess of Runing's concubine is surnamed Zhou.

Zhou Zhi's eldest brother died at an early age, leaving several children, all of whom were handed over to Zhou Zhi to raise.

The eldest cousin's wife, Zhou, is Zhou Zhi's little niece, and the eldest princess of Runing treats her very well, just like her mother.

Because of this relationship, the eldest princess of Runing is very familiar with the relatives of the An family, so she knows Ling Qingyun's mother and daughter.

"Yes." Andong Road.

Ling Qingyun knew that her mother had something to say to her aunt, so she took her leave.

The second cousin, An Wei, followed behind them, without saying a word.

After the children left, Xiao Jing sent all the maids and servants in the house, leaving only her and her sister Da Jing.

"What is the eldest princess of Runing doing when she comes to find her brother-in-law?" The Jing family was more curious about the arrival of the eldest princess of Runing.

The anxiety of the eldest princess of Runing was also seen by the Jing family.

Xiao Jingshi coughed and lowered his voice: "Some things in the imperial court." ”

The eldest princess of Runing interfered in the politics of the court, and it was not a day or two. She is the sister of the Holy One today, and she is deeply favored by the Holy One.

Moreover, the saint's ascension to the throne is mostly due to the contribution of the eldest princess Runing and her concubine.

"What's the matter?" Jing asked again.

In front of her sister, Jing had no scruples. The two sisters never kept it. Jing's doesn't like to chew the root of his tongue, his personality is calm, and Xiao Jing's dare to sue her if he has something.

So, Xiao Jing's voice was lowered: "The official family wants to pass the stepbrother and become the crown prince." "What?!" Jing was shocked.

She couldn't help but think of her sister-in-law's mansion, Ji Wangfu's sudden return to Beijing, is it related to this matter?

King Ji was the uncle of the Holy Lord, and he had four sons.

Giving up the throne to his younger brother was at the beginning of this dynasty.

Rao was like this, Jing was still incredulous, and said, "How is this possible? How old is the saint? ”

The current saint ascended the throne at the age of sixteen, and has just turned twenty-six this year.

Twenty-six years old, in the prime of life, will there be no heirs in the future?

What crown prince did he succeed?

It's ridiculous!

No wonder the eldest princess of Runing is in a hurry.

"Yes, the ministers will not agree, and how many relatives of the emperor are willing? However, the saint had already expressed his mind to the eldest princess of Runing, and he had made up his mind. Xiao Jing said, "I was going to tell you that this matter may have something to do with your family."

"Ji Wangfu?" Jing interrupted his sister.

Xiao Jing nodded and said, "You know? ”

Jing's took Princess Ji's letter and told Xiao Jing's family.

"Ji Wangfu came back for this." Xiao Jing said, "However, no one knows about this matter for the time being, so don't tell anyone else, sister." ”

Jing nodded. Her mouth is tight, and what Xiao Jing knows is just a plain admonition.

There was a sudden silence in the room.

For a moment, Jing was still in disbelief and asked, "Why the hell?" The saint is only twenty-six years old, why did he make a crown prince for his cousin? Will he not have a son after that? ”

Xiao Jing shook his head.

This, she didn't know.

Xiao Jing's husband is a secretary of the ministry, a close minister of the Son of Heaven. The holy things, the An family must be the first to know.

Regarding the saint, Xiao Jing's family didn't quite understand it either.

"It's strange to say, in the past ten years in the palace, there have been no heirs. Not to mention the prince, not even a princess, it's really weird. Jing muttered.

There are no heirs in the palace, why in the end, the Jing family is not the only one speculating.

Xiao Jing's knew something about the situation, but it was not good to talk about the Heavenly Family, so she was silent.

Jing Shi was still unsatisfied, and continued: "I heard that the Holy Lord and Queen Zhaoci Lu have a deep relationship. Empress Lu has been dead for nearly a year, isn't he too sad? ”

Queen Lu is the original queen of the saint, she died on the fifth day of the lunar month last year and gave "Zhaoci".

"I can't believe that." Xiao Jing's endured it again and again, and the conversation box was finally opened by her sister, "The friendship between Shengshang and Queen Lu is very thin. Ten years of husband and wife, he has not spoiled Queen Lu a few times. And every time he arrived at Queen Lu, he was busy until dawn. ”

Over the years, I have always heard outsiders say that the Holy Lord and Queen Lu have a deep relationship. Xiao Jing, who knows the inside story, thinks it's ridiculous.

What is deep? Back then, the eldest princess of Runing and the saint were nothing more than fancy the identity and status of the Lu family.

Back then, there was no Taiyuan Lu clan to help, King Mu was a county king, not even a prince, how to serve the public?

The Lu family is one of the nobles in the world.

Therefore, when the Jing family also said the same thing about the emperor and the empress, Xiao Jing felt indignant and couldn't help it because Empress Lu was not worth it.

She wasn't going to say more.

When Jing heard this, he was stunned.

"This," Jing asked rhetorically, "is it true?" ”

Xiao Jing nodded affirmatively.

"Sister, the affairs in the palace are complicated." Xiao Jing's suddenly approached, and his voice lowered, "There are so many people in the Three Palaces and Six Courtyards, none of them have been pregnant in the past ten years. You know why, because what they went in and what they still do! ”

Xiao Jing's family knows all these things, because her husband An Su is the first close minister of the Son of Heaven.

When the Son of Heaven was still the king of Mujun, he was not liked by the emperor, and there were no loyal courtiers.

When Ansu was a child, he was his teacher and taught him to read.

Therefore, Ansu is the closest person to the saint, which is why Ansu can go from being an official of the fifth grade to a second-grade official at once, and he is on the rise.

The Ministry of Officials is the head of the six departments, and the Ministry of Officials is known as the "Heavenly Official" and has a prominent status.

The affairs of the Holy Inner Palace, Ansu knows. Ansu and Xiao Jing's have a good relationship, knowing that Xiao Jing's is not public, and they will tell her anything.

Da Jing's family knows how to measure and rarely asks about things in the palace, and this is the first time she has talked to her sister. After knowing the truth, the Dajing clan was completely stunned.

"Isn't it okay to be holy?" Jing thought about it and asked lightly. She was really surprised, she was stunned by Xiao Jing's words, and she was a little unfavorable when she spoke.

Although it was not related to the Ling family, the Jing clan still felt that the ground was thundering.

Ten years!

What's wrong with this saint? So many women, all of them let go and let them die of old age in the court?

Who knew that there were such things in the inner palace?

However, the fact that the saint was only twenty-six years old and wanted to have a stepchild shows that he is really ridiculous and different from ordinary people.

"This" Xiao Jing didn't know whether the saint could do it or not.

But she knew that the saint did not have a dragon yang fetish.

An Su has been by the saint's side for many years, and he is also worried about the saint's problem. He and the eldest princess of Runing had privately speculated whether the saint favored men?

Therefore, they also secretly tricked boys into the palace.

The Holy One was furious.

Therefore, why he is so strange about the affairs of the inner palace, even An Su is not very clear.

"No one in our family has entered the palace, and the affairs of the inner palace have nothing to do with us." In the end, Xiao Jing smiled and said, "If you really succeed the son of King Ji and become the crown prince, your aunt and grandmother will be the queen mother in the future, wouldn't it be your luck?" ”

Xiao Jing knew that Princess Ji took good care of her mother's family.

In the future, the Ling family was the prince's mother, and thus rose to prominence. Therefore, if he succeeds the crown prince, it will be beneficial to the Jin State Mansion, especially the Jing family's big house.

"Can it be done?" Jing asked.

"It's hard, the courtiers won't agree." Xiao Jingshi replied, "But everything is always inconclusive, what if it happens?" That's your family's fortune. ”

"Yes." At the bottom of Jing's heart, there was a vague excitement.

If it can really be done, then the Ling family in the future will be extraordinary.

Her son's future is also secured.

When he went back, the corners of Jing's lips were slightly upturned, with a touch of joy.

And her daughter Ling Qingyun seemed to have been hit by something, and she was distracted, her eyebrows tightened.
