Chapter 461: Incredible
Prince Yong originally felt that his son was too careful, but he thought that his son was filial, and the secret guard secretly investigated did not affect anything, and if he found that any cronies were in difficulty, he could help him in time, so he did what his son wanted. But I didn't expect to find out that I was tired after a check, and I suddenly felt that the back waves pushed the front waves, and my son was better than Lao Tzu, and I was very proud, and I felt that my son was really vigilant and cautious, no wonder I was able to end two important fine work dens in the South China Sea.
Qi Haoning thought of the words of his father in the secret letter: "Very good! What good ideas do you have in the future to continue to remind the father! "I'm very excited, my father doesn't want to be so kind to Yue'er, this is the first time to affirm it positively.
This is not the most important thing, the most important thing is that my father has discovered a big hidden danger around him, and that is one of my father's most trusted cronies!
He was afraid when he thought about it, a spy or a meticulous work can often withstand the attack power of an army of hundreds, thousands, or even tens of thousands of people, not to mention that damn Da Liu can get close to his father at any time......
Fortunately, it was discovered early, and Da Liu has not caused any major harm. Moreover, after the incident of Da Liu, the father will definitely be more cautious.
Thinking of this, Qi Haoning's eyes softened even more when he looked at Shu Yao: "Yao'er, you are really my lucky star." If you hadn't come up with such a quiet and effective investigation method, who would have thought that Da Liu would also be bought? It's so dangerous for my father to trust him so much all the time. "He and Yue'er no longer have a mother and an eldest brother, and they can't lose their father anymore.
Shu Yao pursed her lips and smiled: "It's good if it has an effect." Mother Liu said that being a person is too strong. It's hard to attack. The best thing to do is to start with trusted cronies around him. Loyalty is easy to write. But it's not that easy to do. When the weight hits the vital point, people's hearts will change. So, we can trust the people around us, but make sure that we are aware of their anomalies, especially sudden, inexplicable changes. β
Mother Liu has been a palace nurse in Kunning Palace for 20 years, and her scheming, methods, and awareness of prevention are beyond the reach of ordinary people. You must know that it is not so easy to be valued by the queen and even the emperor. Shu Yao attributed the credit for this time to Liu's mother's teaching, which is the most reasonable and impeccable.
Sure enough, Qi Haoning's eyes also flashed with a "trance": No wonder! Shu Yao is a fifteen-year-old boudoir woman. No matter how close the heart is, it is difficult to think of such a deep strategic thing.
However, hehe, do you still want his Yao'er to be smart and really value his family?
"By the way, Yao'er," Qi Haoning suddenly remembered that there was another important thing to say when she came over today, "My grandmother has returned to Beijing and said that she wants to see you, and it just so happens that the Luo family will hold a chrysanthemum banquet the day after tomorrow, and I will come to pick you up when the time comes." β
"Grandmother?" Shu Yao was a little surprised, she had known Qi Haoning for so long. Even in the more than two years since the marriage was given, they have never heard Qi Haoning or Yue'er talk about their grandmothers. She only knew that their maternal grandfather had passed away many years ago, so she thought that her maternal grandmother must have passed away a long time ago.
"Well," Qi Haoning replied, "when my mother was seriously ill, my grandmother was afraid that she would be too sick, so she didn't come to visit her once. The father was very angry, afraid that the mother concubine would be sad, so he talked to his grandfather and the third uncle once, and heard that on the same day, the grandfather sent someone to send the grandmother away, and the third uncle came to see the mother concubine on the second day, saying that there was something to deal with in the old house, and the grandmother went back to the south for a while.
After the death of her mother, she was probably afraid that her father would be angry with her, and her grandmother never returned to Beijing. A few years ago, I heard that I was going to come back, but I was delayed because of my aunt's illness. The eldest aunt was the eldest daughter of her grandmother and her favorite child, so she married her grandmother's nephew, the son of her eldest brother. My aunt died a few months ago, and my grandmother came over, oh, and it seems that she had brought her little daughter. β
Shu Yao blinked, this is not her biological mother, right?
Qi Haoning seemed to know the question in Shu Yao's heart, and smiled bitterly: "It is said that the birth date of the mother concubine and the grandmother are compatible, and the grandmother almost died when she gave birth to the mother, so the grandmother has always disliked the mother concubine, and even thought about exchanging daughters with her sister, that is, the mother of Concubine Zhao." At that time, the mother was almost ten years old, and she was very sad. "This matter was inadvertently said by his father when he recalled the old things of his mother when he went to the southwest last time, and his father was very sorry that his mother had such a mother.
"Change your daughter?" Shu Yao's eyes widened. Can the daughter also be changed? One is the blood of the Luo family, and the other is the blood of the Zhao family, how to change it?
Qi Haoning snorted coldly and explained: "It is to pass the mother concubine to the Zhao family as a daughter, and she herself adopted Concubine Zhao under her name to become the daughter of the Luo family." But her grandfather resolutely disagreed, and reprimanded her, and the third uncle, who was only seven or eight years old, had to drive Concubine Zhao's mother and daughter out of the door, and her grandmother was afraid that her grandfather would really divorce her, so she gave up.
Later, her mother was sent back to the south by her maternal grandfather to live with her grandfather and grandmother for several years, and only returned to Beijing when she was 14 years old. It was on that way back to Beijing that he met his father for the first time. Well, it is the Yuquan Temple in your Yulin Town, and the most memorable place in the life of the father and the princess is the lotus pond waterfall behind the Yuquan Temple, because that is the place where they met for the first time. β
Shu Yao thought it was too incredible, and he often heard what he said. Didn't Gao Mingde's father also think that Gao Mingde killed his wife Gao Mingde's own mother? But how can a mother think that her child who is pregnant in October will be self-defeating?
Qi Haoning is here today to expose the "family ugliness", he wants to let Shu Yao have a bottom in his heart, so as not to get into the way of Mrs. Luo and Concubine Zhao, the banquet will be divided into men's and women's areas, and he can't stay by Shuyao's side all the time.
Clearing his throat, he continued: "Grandmother doesn't like her mother, but she always respects her and longs for her grandmother to look at her more. Listening to his father, if it weren't for his grandmother pretending to be sick back then, his father was reluctant to embarrass his mother and went to intercede with his grandmother in person, Concubine Zhao would not have been able to enter the palace. At that time, the side concubine chosen by the imperial grandmother for her father was a lady from a big family, and the imperial grandmother had always looked down on Concubine Zhao. β
It sounds like Mrs. Luo loves her own niece Concubine Zhao very much? Shu Yao frowned slightly, it was too abnormal! There are many people who love their nieces, but haven't you heard of anyone who loves their nieces more than their own daughters?
Thinking about it, Shu Yao blurted out and asked, "Brother Ning, don't you think it's strange?" If a person wants to form an obsession, not only must there be a root cause that causes her to be afraid or yearning, but also someone and something to repeatedly mention and remind her. Just based on the danger of childbirth, where will a mother think that the child is rejected? "Who doesn't know that when a woman gives birth to a child, she steps into a coffin with one foot? What's more, the first princess's younger brother is only two years younger than her, which means that Mrs. Luo's body has not been damaged much.
Qi Haoning was stunned, yes, his grandfather and third uncle both regarded the absurdity of the mother's "mother", except for the fact that a Yunyou Daoist aunt criticized the birth date of the mother and grandmother, it is said that no one else echoed this statement, why did the grandmother persistently identify? Uh, the mother is gone, is there any need for someone to check it?
"Since Old Madam Luo loves Concubine Zhao so much," Shu Yao's smile brought a hint of sarcasm, "The three of Concubine Zhao's mother and son will definitely go to the chrysanthemum banquet the day after tomorrow, right?" β
Qi Haoning nodded: "Yes, so what?" Yao'er, whether it is to your grandmother or Concubine Zhao, you just need to be polite and passable, you don't have to be too ...... Fearful. Hmph, speaking of which, if my father was in Beijing, my grandmother wouldn't even dare to let us go to see her. "Now I wonder if my father didn't come back so soon, right? If it weren't for Yue'er and the imperial grandmother going to live in the imperial village, she might still want Yue'er to come out of the palace to meet her. But even if she really thinks so, she only dares to let herself tell Yue'er, right? Yue'er lives in Cining Palace, she dares to alarm the imperial grandmother? It is said that the imperial grandmother was also disgusted with her.
Shu Yao responded with a smile, Qi Haoning's main purpose when he came over today was to say this, right?
No matter what kind of fate and grievances there are between Mrs. Luo and the former princess, she is Qi Haoning's maternal grandmother and a serious elder. If Qi Haoning hadn't told her so many old things in such detail, she really wouldn't have beware of Old Madam Luo.
Well, since Qi Haoning said "just look good on the surface", she just did it. Didn't it mean that Mrs. Naluo was jealous of the Queen Mother and Prince Yong? That's better to deal with. She, Qi Haoning, and Yue'er don't need to be disrespectful at all, they don't need to be disobedient, just use their strength to stand up. Hehe, it's like the story of "fox fake tiger" that my mother used to say. What's more, the monarch first and then the ministers, the emperor first and then the filial piety, there is no affection, and it is not easy for Mrs. Luo to take advantage of Prince Yong's absence in the capital to take care of her grandson, granddaughter and her, the prospective granddaughter-in-law.
Qi Haoning tightened his right hand holding Shu Yao's small hand, and said with a smile: "Just remember not to let yourself be wronged, and push it on me if there is anything." "If he was by his own peril, he wouldn't have to pay much attention to that grandmother. But...... It is still necessary to take into account Yao'er's reputation. There are things he can do, but Yao'er will cause criticism if he does, and he is reluctant to let his little fiancΓ©e lose her reputation because of such an outrageous old woman.
Before leaving, Qi Haoning left a sentence for Shu Yao that made Shu Yao angry and funny: "Don't bother preparing gifts, she doesn't like her mother, and naturally she won't treat us sincerely, so why be thankless?" I asked Mother Luo to prepare two gifts, and you can bring them when the time comes. Luo's mother used to be the maid of the mother's concubine, and she knew more or less about her grandmother's avoidance. β
That night, Liu's mother sent a letter out, asking people to check Mrs. Luo's preferences and avoid taboos as soon as possible, and to know herself and her opponent, so that she can be at ease. (To be continued......)
PS: Fart pain, the doctor said it was the sequelae after surgery, sitting for too long caused sciatic nerve damage, and I will have to lie down and write it again on the computer in the future. I went to the hospital today and came back late, and the third shift I owed yesterday will make up tomorrow. Originally, there will be two shifts tomorrow, but now there will be three watches, and the day after tomorrow will also be three watches.
