Chapter 316: Choosing a Concubine for Mother
In late autumn, it is the closest square to the palace in Lin'an City, facing each other across the Luoshui from the palace, which is not only close to Luoshui, the scenery is beautiful, but also close to the inner garden of the palace, so it is the best place for the rich and officials of Lin'an to choose to live.
On the day of Qixi Festival, the cruel gourmets of the three beautiful women that Mrs. Mu and Shen Ren saw on Dingding Street lived in the late autumn.
According to their age, those three people are called Zheng Anyi, Zheng Anyi, and Zheng Anyi. In the Zheng family ranking, Zheng Anyi is the third, Zheng Anyi is the fourth, and Zheng Anyi is the fifth, they are all the descendants of the elders of the Qi Dynasty, and they are naturally the children of the family.
Shen Ren's drunken guess that day was half right, this Zheng Anyi was indeed a beautiful man, but the other two were women dressed as men.
Now that Zheng Anyi has reached the age of eighteen and is to be married, I heard that she has promised someone. Zheng Anyi is not yet eighteen years old, so he has no official position yet. Zheng Anyi is the follower of his brother and sister.
The descendants of the Zheng family of this generation do not have any real power figures, although the children of the Zheng family usually make friends with many children of the family, but in the late autumn when the high-ranking officials are like clouds, their family is far from prominent.
After Mrs. Mu inquired about their identities and origins, she was quite embarrassed.
After seeing these three people that day, especially Zheng An, Yi Shuli, and the beauty of Moth Mei, Mrs. Mu moved her mind. At present, the position of the crown prince is about to be guaranteed, but her crown prince brother has nothing to do, and the little bit of heart and eye left is all used to save his life.
There is also an elder brother who has the best relationship with him in the distant Yan Kingdom, and I don't know if there will be a chance to meet in this life. The last bit of the Jiang Qi clan is about to die. The two brothers can't count on it, and she has a daughter's family, but they can only provoke this matter.
She was worried about the situation. But in front of her strong and domineering mother, there is nothing she can do. It wasn't until she saw Zheng Anyi, the demon, that she thought of an idea: If she could take this Zheng Anyi as a helper and dedicate him to her mother, would it have an impact on her mother?
She is a daughter, but she has to choose a face for her mother, and she is inevitably unbearable. But Tian Qiniang already has the two faces of Mu Shangxuan and Mi Taiyi, is there still one Zheng Anyi? Mrs. Mu is now unable to let Jiang Qi's last bloodline have a way to survive in front of the Jiangshan Sheji and the inheritance of incense. What is this little section?
But after inquiring about the identity of this person, Mrs. Mu felt that it was a little difficult to implement her plan, Zheng Anyi was a famous family, and she was clothed and fed. Life is worry-free. Coupled with his beautiful face and prime, he was asked to serve an old woman with goosebumps, would he be willing?
Of course, the queen can get supreme power and wealth, and some men don't care about her age. Will Zheng Anyi serve the queen as a young man in order to gain power? Even if he covets power. is willing to serve the queen, but he is willing to serve Jiang Qi, who has declined. Is it an enemy of the Tian family?
Jiang Cheng offered Mu Shangxuan to Tian Qi Niang, but after Mu Shangxuan gained power, he immediately got rid of Jiang Cheng.
Thinking of this, Mrs. Mu did not act rashly, she had to make sure that this person could be used by her first. After some investigation, she found that among the several families adjacent to the Zhang family's mansion, one family was Fengyang Botian Fengqi, so she thought about it.
……
During the Spring and Autumn Period and the Warring States Period, there was a not-so-high boundary mountain on the border between Wu and Chu. There is a small village girl on this side of the mountain, who is from Wu, and there is a small village girl on the other side of the mountain, who is from Chu. One day, they went up the mountain to pick mulberry leaves, and they quarreled over a mulberry tree, and the Wu girl scratched the face of the Chu girl twice, and the Chu girl gave the Wu girl a mouth.
When the two little girls came home, they wept and told their father and brother about it, and when they heard this, they picked up the sticks and went up the mountain, and the two families fought. The people in the village have lived here for generations, and if they are not close to each other, how can they sit idly by, so the people in the two villages had a fight. The fight soon turned into a battle between the two border cities, and the two countries went to war......
Mrs. Mu's method is probably like this, she used a little trick, and she successfully provoked the dispute between the Zheng Mansion and the Tian Mansion, which became a struggle between the Zheng Mansion and the Tian Mansion's master, how arrogant the Tian family is today, it is naturally the Zheng family who suffers.
The Tian family was unforgiving, bullied the door, and scolded the hostess of the Zheng family, Mo's blood, so angry that Mo couldn't eat for two days, saying that her husband died early, her son had no interest, and she wanted to hang herself. Mo's son Zheng Anyi is a dutiful son, he sees it in his eyes, hates it in his heart, and is powerless to be angry with his mother.
At this time, Mrs. Mu heard about this "accidentally", and she happened to respect the Zheng grandfather, who had assisted her grandfather and father, so she came forward to reconcile and settle the matter.
Zheng Anyi was grateful, and brought gifts to visit with his mother Mo. The two of them talked happily, and they moved around frequently. Mo had the heart to let Mrs. Mu bring her son, and often took her son to the princess's mansion as a guest, one day Mrs. Mu wanted to enter the palace to bow, and I heard that Zheng Anyi also knew how to bow, so he invited him to enter the palace together.
Zheng Anyi, as a son of a family, has never encountered any difficulties since he was a child, only this time he fought with the Tian family, which began to make him realize that only the shadow of his ancestors was no longer enough to protect the family, and out of this sense of crisis, he took the initiative to slap Mrs. Mu, and naturally agreed to her invitation. So, he entered the palace with Mrs. Mu.
After entering the palace, Mrs. Mu naturally has a way to let the queen see him, and then it will not be her business, Tian Qiniang never wants to show her old state in front of the courtiers, and she never wants to act like a respected elder in front of her children, of course Mrs. Mu knows how to maintain the dignity of Tian Qiniang's mother. She just tried to let her mother see Zheng Anyi, and then chatted with Pei Kun.
Jiang Cheng originally wanted to introduce Yao'er as Mrs. Mu's face, and he also wanted to train him in the manners and etiquette he should have in front of nobles, so as not to dislike Jiang. And Zheng Anyi doesn't need these preparations, he is already from a famous family, and he is proficient in poetry, songs, piano, chess, calligraphy and painting.
Many times, the older a man is, the more he likes innocent girls, because they have the most youthful vitality that makes him happy. For Tian Qiniang, who dreams of eternal youth, this is probably the case, this beautiful young man with red lips and white teeth and a graceful demeanor attracts her deeply like a magnet the moment she enters her eyes......
Although Tian Qiniang is younger and older, although she is not goosebumps, and her skin is wrinkled and loose under careful maintenance, she has a powerful charm that no other woman in the world has: that is, supreme power and supreme status.
For Zheng Anyi, who has realized how important power is, the power and status of the queen is the strongest aphrodisiac, and almost without hesitation, he threw himself into Tian Qiniang's arms...... (To be continued......)
