Chapter 112: Listen Less, Talk Less

Han Shuyi persuaded Zhao Yuwen for a while, and Zhao Yuwen was steady, and Han Shuyi said: "There are a few doubts in this matter. ”

Zhao Yuwen held back her tears and asked, "What else is in doubt?" ”

Han Shuyi said: "I have been in contact with this Chen Wenhui twice, she is a very smart little girl, and she is a cool character, she will take revenge, you offend her so much, how can she still let you enter the palace?" At that time, the relationship between her and Princess Lichuan was a cousin, and they built Shanghai City together, and there were entanglements of interests. ”

Zhao Yuwen said: "Yes, we were also a little puzzled at that time, how could my sister still be selected?" After her sister's accident, her mother also said that this is a suspicious point, how can Chen Wenhui still let her sister be selected. Moreover, I later heard that my sister was recommended by Chen Wenhui. Therefore, I used to hate Chen Wenhui, if she hadn't let my sister be selected, now, my sister might still be alive and well. I also heard that after my sister had an accident, it was the imperial concubine Niangniang who proposed to the emperor to choose me to enter the palace, and ranked my position before Shi Guiren and Li Guiren, who entered the palace at the same time, as a token of comfort. ”

Han Shuyi said: "This is even more suspicious? ”

Zhao Yuwen asked, "How suspicious?" ”

Han Shuyi said: "If our family has a good relationship with the imperial concubine, or if we have a relationship with the Chen family, there is no suspicion, but our family has no friendship with these three, if we insist on a relationship, that is, the relationship between the mother and Princess Lichuan is not bad, but it is not so close to the point that they can take care of each other's children." Well, there is another person who has something to do with them, that is, the second brother. ”

Zhao Yuwen was incredible: "Second brother? ”

Han Shuyi said: "I know you have a lot of opinions about the second brother. Because he is not the same father and mother as us, he is a concubine, but. After all, we are a family. Niangniang, now you are not in the Guogong Mansion. You are in the palace and have to take a long-term view. You see, the imperial concubine Niangniang was treated coldly for some reasons before, but later it was not because of the younger brother who was born out of the concubine that she was favored again and became the imperial concubine Niangniang. Is it possible to become a queen in the future? ”

Zhao Yuwen frowned and pondered.

Han Shuyi knew in her heart that the concept of the past ten years could not be changed overnight. She continued: "The second brother has had a good relationship with the four princes since he was a child, and it can be said that he is the arm of the four princes, and this affection cannot be replaced by ordinary people. If the four princes inherit the throne in the future, then"

Han Shuyi didn't continue, because Zhao Yuwen's eyes were already wide, and she really didn't think about this question. In fact, this problem was not only not considered by Zhao Yuwen. Even Mrs. Zhao didn't think about it. I have to say that in this regard, my mother-in-law is also short-sighted. But both my father-in-law and my father-in-law are very wise. I have thought of this for a long time, after all, now that the emperor is old, people who don't want to do things in the future are stupid, which is why the courtiers are standing in line.

Zhao Yuwen said a little slowly: "If one day the imperial concubine becomes the queen in the future, the four princes will be the crown prince, and in the future, the four princes will succeed to the throne, and the imperial concubine will be the queen mother." What about us? What about me? No children, low status. Without a backer, you can only enter the royal temple for the rest of your life? ”

Han Shuyi thought to herself. Do you finally know now? The fate of these young women who entered the palace will not be as good as the fate of ordinary village women in the future. I really don't understand what these three sisters-in-law think, they are all desperately trying to enter the palace, and they don't look at how old the emperor is now, how serious is the girl's family, and the one who will go to the pole wants to be a concubine for the old emperor. Really.

Zhao Yuwen saw Han Shuyi in silence and understood, this may be true. In other words, the current glory and wealth are all empty, how can Zhao Yuwen accept this?

Han Shuyi said: "Our Han family was in my aunt's generation, and there was once a concubine who entered the palace, I don't know if you know? It is the concubine of the former emperor, Concubine Han Xian. was already one of the four concubines, and when the emperor died, because there were no descendants, he could only enter the royal monastery and live a hard life, and died within a few years. ”

Zhao Yuwen fought a cold war.

Han Shuyi said: "Niangniang must have foresight in the palace, this is the way to save her life." It's not as good in the palace as outside, and you can worry about your life at any time, just look at the eldest sister. ”

Zhao Yuwen nodded, her sister's death hit her hard, and now she will have nightmares when she thinks about it.

Zhao Yuwen made up her mind and said: "Sister-in-law, I will listen to you, you and your mother are people who really think about me, I hope that my sister-in-law can enter the palace more in the future and teach me more." Now let's go and meet the imperial concubine first, shall we? It just so happens that I have here two jade ornaments given by the emperor before, so I will first honor the imperial concubine. ”

Han Shuyi smiled and said to Zhao Yuwen: "Niangniang, it's not enough to take refuge in the imperial concubine Niangniang, you also have to say less and listen less." ”

Zhao Yuwen asked: "I understand if I don't say anything, it means to be cautious in words and deeds, and why don't you listen to why, if the news doesn't work, how can you live in this palace?" ”

Han Shuyi said: "Living in the palace, it is sometimes more important to listen less than to talk less, because there are too many secrets that cannot be heard, and if you accidentally hear it, it will cause death." Why did Niangniang think that Tian Minyi would be killed, and the Tian family would be buried with her? ”

Zhao Yuwen said: "Of course I know, I can't forget it for the rest of my life, it was she who poisoned my sister in front of me, but I didn't know it at the time." ”

After speaking, Zhao Yuwen burst into tears again.

Han Shuyi laughed in her heart, what is a Zhao Yuman? How is it possible to let the dignified Shangshu accompany the funeral?

Han Shuyi took a deep breath, she must not laugh at her sister-in-law's stupidity, and she must work hard to guide her.

Han Shuyi said: "Our Zhao family is the government of the state, and our system of Dachu is the prince and uncle, we are the top, but we don't have it above?" Are we the first in Beijing? ”

Zhao Yuwen couldn't cry anymore and said, "Sister-in-law, what do you mean?" I'm not so stupid that I don't even know this, I don't know how many mansions are stronger than us? There are also county kings and princes, all of whom are taller than us, and even the royal family is not to mention, the four major families are much stronger than us. ”

Han Shuyi said: "Then why, one of Guogong's undergrown concubines died, and he wanted a family of Yipin Shangshu to accompany the funeral?" ”

Zhao Yuwen didn't think about this question at all, she was suddenly stupid, and said half-loudly: "Ah, yes, I haven't thought about this problem." I just feel happy that my sister's hatred has finally been avenged. However, why would the emperor be so for my sister? The emperor has never seen his sister in his life? How can there be feelings, for this to bring Shangshu's family to the funeral? ”

Han Shuyi closed her eyes and said: "Niangniang, everyone in the capital knows that the Tian family did not suffer because of the death of the eldest sister, but because of an important matter, but everyone didn't know it, and they didn't dare to ask, it must be that the Tian family knew something that shouldn't be known, this is to kill people, and besides, it is the emperor who wants to kill people and kill people, and our family's affairs are just an excuse for the emperor." So, please remember to listen less and know as little as possible. In the sea area, if there are many years of palace grandmothers around the mother, please ask them for advice, ask them to tell the mother more about the past things in the palace, and help the mother understand how to survive in the palace. ”

This morning, Han Shuyi brought too much impact to Zhao Yuwen, and Zhao Yuwen couldn't digest it.

Han Shuyi sighed and said, "Niangniang, I think, Niangniang should not go to the Zhongcui Palace of the Imperial Concubine Niangniang today." I'll come back tomorrow, and then we'll visit the Imperial Concubine together. Today, please take a break. I'll take my leave. ”

Zhao Yuwen didn't stay with Han Shuyi, so she watched Han Shuyi withdraw from the palace.

On this day, Zhao Yuwen didn't eat or drink water, so she sat in a daze. The palace maids around her were very scared, for fear that there was something wrong with Chonghua. In the evening, the grandmother of Hualin Hall finally couldn't help it and asked Zhao Yuwen: "Chonghua Niangniang, please eat a little bit." ”

When Zhao Yuwen saw this grandmother, she remembered what her sister-in-law said, and asked, "Grandma, how many years have you been in the palace?" ”

That grandmother was assigned to the housekeeper of Hualin Palace, and she said: "The slave maid entered the palace when Emperor Zhongzong was in the palace, and it has been almost fifty years. ”

Zhao Yuwen was a little stunned, and said half-loudly: "How old is that grandma this year?" ”

Mama said, "The slave is fifty-four years old this year. The slave maid entered the palace when he was six years old. When the slave maid was seventeen years old, Emperor Zhongzong was killed. ”

Zhao Yuwen said: "It's really been almost fifty years, you are really an old man in the palace, after three generations of emperors, you have experienced a lot of things in the palace, right?" ”

Mama said: "It's an old man, there are indeed too many things in the palace, and there is also a chance to leave the palace in the middle, but I grew up in the palace since I was a child, and there is no place to go except the palace." I can't live in the people anymore. ”

Zhao Yuwen nodded and said, "Well, I understand, Mama, is there anyone else in your family?" ”

Mama said: "The slave maid still has nephews and nieces at home, all of whom live in the capital, and they are doing well thanks to the blessing of their mothers." ”

Zhao Yuwen nodded and called the palace maid Luomei: "Luomei, are you there?" ”

Luomei hurriedly came in and replied, "What do you command?" ”

Zhao Yuwen said: "Luomei, go and get a hundred taels of gold and reward it to Mama." ”

Luomei was shocked, she didn't dare to say anything else, and hurriedly agreed.

The grandmother was also shocked, this is a hundred taels of gold, not silver, but gold. Usually Zhao Yuwen is very generous, and often gives them rewards, she always feels that she has met a good master.

But like now, a reward of one hundred taels of gold was given at once, and Mama was also blinded. With her many years of experience in the palace, this is definitely not a good thing. (To be continued)
