Chapter 260: Exploitation

When the Queen Mother sighed, she didn't remember at all, or rather, she never cared at all, there was a girl Qi Yuexin in Prince Yong's mansion who had been in the palace for more than half a year and was about to be 16 years old, but she had not yet decided on her family.

At this time, Qi Yuexin was coquettish to Concubine Zhao. Half a month ago, she went to Famen Temple with her widowed cousin Xiao Zhao to offer incense, and met Ruan Wenxin, the new leader of this year's liberal arts examination. Ruan Wenxin is suave and gentle, and Qi Yuexin is "shocked".

Later, Qi Yuexin and Ruan Wenxin met again with the help of Xiao Zhao. Qi Yuexin was deeply moved by Ruan Wenxin, who was talented, because he suffered from the wind and cold the day before the exam, he missed the members and champions.

Ruan Wenxin said to Qi Yuexin with red eyes, he didn't feel any regret for losing the champion, but not being able to marry Qi Yuexin was the biggest regret in his life.

Because Nguyen Van Tan already has a wife and a three-year-old daughter. Ruan Van Xin's wife Zheng is the daughter of his teacher, after his teacher died of illness, Zheng was left alone, and he relied on Ruan Van Xin, saying that he was a teacher for one day and a father for life, and Ruan Van Xin had the responsibility to take care of her for her father.

Ruan Wenxin saw that the Zheng family was indeed lonely, and in order to repay the teacher, he reluctantly married the Zheng family.

Unexpectedly, although Zheng was born in a scholarly family, he was vulgar, and he was in the eyes of money every day.

A while ago, Zheng wrote a letter saying that he was going to bring his daughter to Beijing to look for him, which made him very painful. He wanted to divorce his wife, but he couldn't bear it, after all, the Zheng family was the only blood left by his teacher, and they also had a daughter.

Moreover, he is now on the top of the high school rankings. Entered the Hallym Temple. The future is promising. If he divorces his wife now, he will definitely be scolded as Chen Shimei.

Qi Yuexin sympathized with Ruan Wenxin very much, and was also moved by his erudition and affection, especially the love and pampering in Ruan Wenxin's eyes when she looked at her, which made her unable to extricate herself.

Qi Yuexin is also a girl with a high vision, those straw bags from the family can't get into her eyes, Ruan Wenxin is talented, and she looks good, although she is from a poor family. But the future is limitless, who doesn't know that Lu Dao is today's son and her imperial uncle attaches great importance to talents born in the imperial examination? Xia Shujie, the last champion of civil and military affairs, was originally from a poor family.

However, how could the eldest lady of Prince Yong's mansion be a concubine? Even if it's a flat wife, it's not okay.

Cousin Xiao Zhao gave her an idea, if she could ask the Queen Mother for marriage, then it would be justified to demote Zheng to a concubine. Won't you be able to take care of Ruan Wenxin's daughter in the backyard in the future? Just to raise one more wet nurse, it also shows Qi Yuexin's generosity, and it also fulfills Ruan Wenxin's reputation, which will not affect his brilliant future.

Concubine Zhao couldn't resist Qi Yuexin's pleading, in the name of guiding Qi Haoxiang's studies. invited that Ruan Wenxin to the palace once. Seeing that Ruan Wenxin is really talented and beautiful, his bearing is extraordinary, and his mouth is sweet. It's much better than the young masters who are watching it now. Concubine Zhao kept an eye on it, and asked people to inquire, I heard that Ruan Wenxin's performance in the Hanlin Academy was also top-notch, and his wife Zheng was indeed his teacher's daughter, and she was indeed filial piety in the year of his teacher's death.

Concubine Zhao thought about it, Qi Yuexin is really high or low now, she will be sixteen years old in a blink of an eye, and if she doesn't decide on her relatives, she will soon have no face to meet people.

Ruan Wenxin can also be regarded as a good candidate, and he relies on Qi Yuexin to go up, and he won't hold Qi Yuexin in his hands in the future? Concubine Zhao is naturally more sophisticated and far-sighted than Qi Yuexin, and can ask the Queen Mother for marriage, Ruan Wenxin can not only justifiably degrade his wife to a concubine, this kind of big face will definitely be of great help to him in his future future, the grandson-in-law of the Queen Mother personally married, people always have to give some face, right?

The problem is that the three of them can't get into the eyes of the Queen Mother at all, and they can't see the Queen Mother, so where can they go to ask for marriage?

In the past, if Qi Yuexin's sister and brother wanted to see the Queen Mother, they had to follow Qi Haoning. However, the current Qi Haoning has long been alienated from them, and he is no longer the stupid boy who regarded them as his closest relatives in the past.

"Mother, do you want to find a way, Mother is the smartest, Xin'er really doesn't like those straw bags and wastes, and they are all concubines." Qi Yuexin took Concubine Zhao's hand and coquettishly.

There was a maid next to her who lowered her head and pouted secretly, the eldest lady seemed to have forgotten that she was also a concubine, and Concubine Zhao was just a temporary housekeeper, once the princess married the princess, Concubine Zhao could only obediently hand over the housekeeping rights.

Concubine Zhao's mother and son have always been domineering and domineering in the mansion, as if this can dilute their identities as "side rooms" and "concubines". But they didn't know that the subordinates who were submissive and respectful in front of them were sneering behind their backs.

Since Qi Haoning became estranged from them, the reverence of the people in the mansion for them has also faded, most of them are just playing superficial skills, and how many of them are pouring out their hearts and lungs and doing their best to be loyal? After all, the side concubine is not a serious housewife, but just an aunt with a higher status. What's more, who doesn't know that the Empress Dowager doesn't like them? If people don't even have this bit of eyesight, they don't know how to die.

Concubine Zhao was also stabbed by her daughter's sentence "It's all out of the concubine", and a trace of bitterness passed through her heart, she didn't want to be a concubine, but Qi Yuexin was originally a concubine.

Originally, because she was in charge of the family, and Qi Haoning was close to them, coupled with the first-class status of the high-level person in Prince Yong's Mansion, Qi Yuexin had no problem marrying a son-in-law of a family, or even the eldest son, but now, ......

On that day, one of her handkerchiefs who had been away from Beijing for many years and followed her husband to other places was handed over to the palace to see her, and she learned that there were rumors outside the road that the queen mother did not trust her, so she left the lord of Yue in Cining Palace to raise, and now even the courtyard of Ning Shizi did not let their mother and son enter and exit.

Although these are facts, she is still so angry that she vomits blood, with these rumors, even those concubines are difficult to accept Qi Yuexin.

Qi Yuexin was not too stupid, and soon found that her mother's complexion had changed, and she said coquettishly: "Mother, even those gentlemen and sisters-in-law I am not interested in, I can only spend all my time drinking, and I have no other skills." Mother, Ruan Gongzi is a talented person, he will definitely be able to make great achievements, and he will be able to help Xiang'er in the future, right? Mother, you have to think of a way. Let the second brother go and ask the imperial grandmother to give us a marriage. ”

Mother and daughter are talking. Concubine Zhao's mother, Mother Zhao, hurried in: "Master." The father-in-law of Shunzi next to the Queen Mother came to pass on the decree, which was to marry the prince and the girl of the Yongping Marquis Mansion. The prince is receiving orders in the front yard. ”

With a "bang", the teacup in Concubine Zhao's hand fell to the ground. The Queen Mother started so fast, she had been arranging here for several months, but Qi Haoning didn't enter the game, and the Queen Mother gave her marriage, which is still not easy to handle.

The three brothers and sisters of the Yongping Marquis Mansion were able to get rid of the branch when they were still helpless orphans and orphans. Where is it simple to discredit their uncles, uncles, and even Murong Mansion?

At that time, Xia Ruoxue, the second lady of the Anguo Mansion, was so beautiful and exquisite, but because of the calculation, the three brothers and sisters fell into the fate of being separated from the family, and were even expelled from the Xia family. It is said that Naxia Shuyao is still a famous person with deep fortune......

Today, the Yongping Marquis Mansion is even more powerful. Xia Shuyao entered the door and became the princess, she is the serious mistress of the palace, where is the realm of her side concubine?

Concubine Zhao decided that the Queen Mother gave Xia Shuyao to Qi Haoning in marriage, and she was simply here to suppress and deal with her.

Qi Yuexin felt that her mother was making too much of a fuss, a wild girl from the market. What can you do? It's just that life is better, and then there is a powerful big brother. But no matter how powerful her eldest brother and stepfather are. Can you still meddle in the housework of Prince Yong's mansion? As long as you eat and drink well for her, don't you treat her badly?

Concubine Zhao smiled bitterly, if she was now the princess of Prince Yong, it would be easy to say anything. Whether it is the step-room or the side concubine Fuzheng, she is Qi Haoning's mother-in-law, and she has the ability to speak, and she can justifiably mess with the new daughter-in-law.

But now... Just a... is just a concubine, or a concubine who is not favored by the prince and is pressed by the queen mother.

If it was Qi Haoning before, she would still help her, maybe she could still use some divisive tactics or something, and now Qi Haoning will only let Xia Shuyao guard against her carefully, right?

Moreover, there is a shrewd Xia Shuyao, and Qi Haoning is even more difficult to calculate.

Qi Yuexin was still disdainful: "How can she know so much about a girl in the market?" When the time comes, you just hold it, give her a dismount first, and she won't dare to say anything. ”

Concubine Zhao sighed: "What do you know?" That Xia Shuyao's nurturing mother is a palace mama from Kunning Palace, and she was raised by that palace mama when she was more than six years old, you know all about Lu Dao, she doesn't know Lu Dao? Even if she doesn't know what to do, is that palace grandmother there good-looking? ”

Qi Yuexin blushed and shut up, what kind of Xia Shuyao is really not an ordinary good life, palace grandmother? She doesn't have the eldest daughter of Prince Yong.

Mother Zhao comforted: "Don't panic, the master doesn't panic, Miss Xia of the Yongping Marquis Mansion is only 13 years old, and it will take two years to get married." In two years, is the prince really not close to women? A few cousins still have a good chance. ”

Concubine Zhao's eyes lit up, yes, she was too pessimistic, in two years, a lot of things can happen, maybe get a concubine out first, then Xia Shuyao was pressed before she entered the door, see what momentum there is?

"Let's go, go and congratulate your big brother." Concubine Zhao stood up, now Qi Yuexin's relatives still ask Qi Haoning, and she has to please first.

Mother Zhao hurriedly stopped: "Master, you... You have forgotten that according to the rules set by the prince, there is no special reason that the side rooms and concubines in the palace are not allowed to go to the front yard to participate in receiving the holy decree and the decree. ”

The special reason is that the holy decree and edict passed on are for a certain side chamber or concubine, or it concerns every master in the palace.

Concubine Zhao was dizzy for a while, her body shook, after so many years in charge of Zhongfei, she was used to thinking of herself as the housewife in the palace. Moreover, the palace has not received the decree for many years, and there is also the queen mother's edict, either to accept and sell the deed, or to set such and such rules for Zhiyuan Yuan, which are all used to restrain and suppress her.
