Chapter 153

153

The rumors in the imperial capital are all about Concubine Xi Niangniang calculating the Jin Palace, but what the Zhennan Palace heard was a different matter, on the seventh day of the first month, the young princess smiled and revealed a diametrically opposite message when she invited the princess of Zhennan to drink tea.

But the princess of Zhennan Wang actually cares most about this, although the Jin Wangfu is good, but in the end it is not as good as the Zhennan Wangfu, the Zhennan Wangfu is the foundation, and in terms of influence, on the control of the place, on the financial power, the Jin Wangfu is also difficult to compare with the Duan family who has been operating in Yunnan for thousands of years.

The information that the princess of Zhennan will get in the imperial capital every day will be sent back to Yunnan by the special line of the Zhennan Wangfu to the king of Zhennan for reference, and the king of Zhennan will also explain the new meaning to the princess according to the change of information.

The special line of Zhennan Wangfu operates by itself, and it is guaranteed that the news can be delivered within three days.

Although the imperial capital is not a tense atmosphere now, the king of Zhennan believes that the dark tide in the imperial capital is turbulent, and most of the important people are in a sensitive period.

The reason is that the prince and the lord are growing up!

Zhennan Wangfu has experienced a thousand years, and I have seen many generations of heirs, and I know that it is not easy for the emperor to sit on the throne.

So now the focus of the Zhennan Palace, the King of Zhennan is very clear, any interests are secondary, the first important thing is to observe the foundation and ability of the prince and the lord.

Who is the next emperor, Zhennan Wangfu must have an attitude, which is also a very important statement for Zhennan Wangfu, although it is not about survival, but it is definitely important.

The so-called loyal ministers do not stand in line, that is in the absence of the prince, since there is a prince, then loyalty to the saint is to support the prince, but it is also necessary to consider whether the prince is worth supporting.

Of course, King Zhennan definitely has more than one source of information in the imperial capital, but the noble status of the princess and the relationship between the princess and the back house are all different and extremely rare.

Think about it, which source can be invited by the crown princess like the princess, sit opposite each other, and observe the words?

Of course, it is more prudent to do this, every word of the princess represents the meaning of Zhennan Wangfu, and it will become a little thrust for the prince and the prince to make decisions.

This conversation is a wrestling, the princess of Zhennan Wang, the lord of Changning, is used to seeing the wind and clouds, and also feels a little nervous, every sentence has to be carefully considered, but the young princess sitting opposite, wearing homely light-colored clothes, is no longer as bright as the day of the first banquet, light and comfortable, and her movements are elegantly boiling tea, but she looks relaxed and leisurely.

It seems that he is just casually doing things with relatives.

It's just that what she said, but every sentence is more important than the other: "If you want to say what someone is doing behind me, I don't believe it, the inheritance of the Jin Palace, how important, how bold it is to confuse the bloodline of the Heavenly Family, not to mention Concubine Xi, it is ......"

Zhou Baolu's bright eyes flashed, and he lifted the teapot and poured water before he continued: "Concubine Niangniang, you can't either." ”

The county lord of Changning hesitated for a moment, did not answer this sentence, but smiled: "What Niangniang said is that the concubine thinks that since it is such a major event, the Jin Wangfu should have invited the emperor to be the master, although it is the matter of the Jin Wangfu, in the end, it is the inheritance of the blood of the heavenly family, and the Jin Wangfu is also the emperor's courtier!" I went to greet my brother a few days ago, and I said the same thing. ”

Zhou Baolu handed over the teacup, her big eyes were bright, and her complexion was upright: "It's not what my aunt said?" Who doesn't understand, the Jin Palace's palace is loved by the emperor, how can the emperor ignore it? What a character the King of Jin is, he naturally understands better. ”

She smiled and said casually: "Tai, the prince also said, although our identities are different, but as far as the clan is concerned, we are the younger generations, and the elders have orders, let's just listen, if there are no orders, and there is no place for us to speak, I don't think this is the reason?" Although this is a big deal, it has nothing to do with Tai and Ziye! ”

Zhou Baolu looked relaxed, and pretended to be very similar to that thing in front of people, which made the county lord of Changning feel that even if nothing else, the appearance and demeanor of the crown princess were also the demeanor of the mother's world.

But Zhou Baolu also turned back to Xiao Hongcheng and complained: "Why do I think that the county lord of Changning is not very enthusiastic about the future prince of the Jin Mansion?" She always tempts me today. I'm so nervous, I'm afraid I'll screw it up. ”

Xiao Hongcheng said: "What are you afraid of, even if you say the wrong thing, don't you still have me to carry it for you?" Who dares to do anything to you? ”

And Xiao Hongcheng felt that Zhou Baolu must be coquettish, if she was nervous, she would definitely be able to make others more nervous: "I think that the county lord of Changning is definitely much more nervous than you, think about it, how can you not care about this matter?" However, the husband's mother's family, no matter what, it is also important to the husband's family, although the Jin Wangfu is good, the Zhennan Wangfu is not indispensable, the Zhennan Wangfu is a cautious person, and he must see the situation clearly before moving. If you think about it, the king of Zhennan knows that the Jin Wangfu is good, and he will naturally think that the emperor must also know that the Jin Wangfu is good, will my father and I be indifferent, and he also wants to know the attitude of the father and me of the Ludao Dao, I think, according to the character of the king of Zhennan, if he feels that he is fighting with his father, he will definitely retreat. ”

"Uh-huh." Zhou Baolu nodded, fighting with the emperor, it is one thing to fight for it or not, that is, to fight for it, for the sake of the Jin Palace, to offend the emperor, it is also worth the loss.

After the county lord of Changning went back, he pondered for a night, and really felt that each sentence seemed to contain three or four layers of meaning, and it was particularly interesting to think about it, and he personally picked up the pen the next day, wrote down every sentence intact, and sent it back to Zhennan Wangfu.

And on the side of King Jin, in the end, it was the brother of the same brother, and the county lord of Changning personally went to the secret talk.

The king of Jin is a close branch of the clan, and the king of Zhennan is different, every year in the first month of the year to return to Beijing with the saint to go to the temple to worship, is to naturally have a mansion in the imperial capital.

With the financial power of the King of Jin, although the house of the imperial capital is not permanent, it is also beautiful, although it is not very large, but a set of five-entry mansions, just the beauty of repair, and it is next to the imperial city, the foot of the ground is excellent, and there are many princes and princes around the palace, in this territory, there are only two or three sets of small mansions in total, one of which is still Tai, the prince's house.

I heard that it was sent by Prince An.

King Jin entered Beijing, saying that he brought a family, but his son was gone, only a daughter-in-law, as well as Princess Jin, side concubines, etc., his room was full of female dependents, but several younger brothers, all of them had several sons, and which room was more lively than his side.

That's why the matter of the heir is so lively.

The county lord of Changning sat down, accompanied by his sister-in-law Princess Jin, and several brothers and daughters-in-law came to ask for peace.

On the surface, it is said that the eldest daughter is fourteen, and she will live in Beijing for a few days and pick her uncle, but no one is a fool, right?

No one wants to fall behind and give up the throne of Jin to others, everyone wants to get a piece of the pie in this matter, so the sister-in-law of the king of Jin came back to the house, and the family came neatly one by one, for fear that she would fall into nothing.

The lord of Changning County saw the ceremony, and after greetings, he asked Princess Jin: "Big brother is not at home today?" ”

Princess Jin said with a smile: "Prince An's Mansion invites New Year's wine, the prince went early in the morning, my aunt and grandmother haven't entered the door yet, I got the letter, so I sent the boy to invite the prince, I can't say that I should come back." ”

The county lord of Changning has a very good relationship with this sister-in-law, this sister-in-law is the cousin of the king of Jin, and now the daughter of the Miao people in Guizhou, the daughter of the big Tusi of the Miao nationality, is white and beautiful, but she is arrogant and indulgent, her temper is not very good, her temperament is reckless, and there are Miao traditions, and the county lord of Changning is a little out of place with her.

However, after watching coldly over the years, my brother wants to marry her, and the county lord of Changning also agrees, regardless of anything else, the benefits to the Jin Wangfu are obvious.

At this time, she went home to talk to her brother, whether it was her sister-in-law or her brother-in-law, whatever the county lord of Changning said, she just smiled and listened, but she didn't nod her head, didn't shake her head, didn't say anything, and let what they said fall wildly, she just kept her mouth shut.

The sister-in-law's mother's family is a foreign surname and cannot be adopted, so the sister-in-law is willing to recognize the maid and give birth to a son, and pinch the mother and son in the palm of her hand, while several younger daughters-in-law strongly doubt the authenticity of the maid's son, hoping that the king of Jin will not recognize it, and inherit one from several younger brothers' rooms, the most hearted of which is the third brother of the king of Jin, he and the king of Jin, the lord of Changning County, a mother and compatriots, if the king of Jin wants to inherit from the younger brother's room, then naturally he has the greatest chance of winning.

The third brother's daughter-in-law, Wang, is the daughter of the seventh room of the royal family in the imperial capital, and the third princess Wang Jinxiu also calls her an aunt, which is also the origin of a hard brand, the Wang family has a large population, and the disputes are the largest.

At this time, seeing the demeanor of the county lord of Changning, this attitude is subtly different from the previous times, and I can't help but think in private, could this matter have changed a new way?

I heard that yesterday's aunt and grandmother went to the palace to invite the princess to come, is it ......

She didn't talk much, just listened to their shouting, and just thought that maybe Ming'er should go to King Jing's Mansion to visit the pregnant Princess Jing!

The county lord of Changning and the king of Jin talked for a long time in the study, and no one knew what Lu Dao talked about, but soon, the news that the princess of Jin was sick came out, and the banquet of the Lantern Festival in the palace also reported illness and did not appear.

The concubine sent the housekeeper to see the disease, and rewarded the medicinal herbs, which was quite concerned.

When Concubine Xi heard this, her teeth itched with more and more hatred, this concubine spread rumors about her outside, but she was holding the identity of the palace, and she showed favor to the Jin Palace, obviously she was the one who was uneasy and kind!

And the most vicious is that Wei Wen's family, who has been working hard in front of the concubine all day long, and has some dirty ideas, thinking about her past, how can there be such a vicious woman in the world?

Since marrying into the Wei family to fill the house, it has been stirring up the wind and rain every day, for more than ten years, the aunt of the older generation, the aunt of this generation, or died or sold or sent to the sister-in-law temple, sent away seven or eight, Concubine Xi has heard of it, most of them have the credit of this Wei Wen's family, and later, the concubine gave birth to a prince, Wei Wen's family in the Wei family has even more upright, and the aunt, her own mother-in-law, more and more do not put the grandmother in the eyes, to the concubine promotion, but also at home to send the grandmother to the family temple.

There are people who have such subordinates, how can such a subordinate woman let the concubine ascend to a high position and fulfill the Wei Wen clan, it is really blind!

These days, Concubine Xi is in Hengyu Palace, gritting her teeth in her mouth, chewing up the names of Wei Guifei and Wei Wen's family, but she is at a loss, and she really can't think of a way to rectify Wei Guifei and Wei Wen's family.

In the past, Concubine Xi often relied on her mother Han to give her ideas and find a way, and she was better at stabbing the knife quietly from behind, but when she saw people, she was gentle and gentle, and she really had to clean up who was facing the gong and the drum, she really hadn't done it.

And now, her mother can't come back from Beijing, and her mother's aunt and aunt and even her brothers and daughters-in-law only look at her quietly and honestly, how can half of them give her ideas? She didn't care at all, and her heart was more bitter than Coptis chinensis!

Sister was killed by Wei Guifei, and now she is spreading rumors and using her as a scapegoat, and now Concubine Xi's hatred for Wei Guifei far exceeds that of the crown princess, and it has reached the point where she wants to put him to death.

But Concubine Xi had no choice!

She has lost her position, Concubine Xi herself also understands that her sister and mother have an accident, and countless noble families in the imperial capital have avoided it, although Hengyu Palace is not as good as Wei Guifei in the past, but in the end, it is a first-class concubine, who comes to ask for peace, who comes to hit the wooden clock, and who is dedicated to Qin'er, but now everyone treats her as a plague god, and no one dares to get close.

Because the emperor decreed that the Han family was severely punished, even if there was no position of Concubine Xi, everyone knew that Concubine Daoxi had lost her sacred heart, and since that day, Hengyu Palace has been as cold as a cold palace.

It's her eldest maid, the mother in charge, who goes out to give a word, and if she wants something, it's not as good as in the past.

Today is the Lantern Festival, get up early in the morning, Zhengming Palace is full of noble ladies, but Hengyu Palace is quiet and cold on this side.

At this time, Concubine Xi inevitably regretted a little, she shouldn't have been so anxious to provoke the prince in the first place, she thought it was a foolproof plan to find a leader, but she didn't expect to end up like this, her mother was also too anxious, she should have dealt with Wei Guifei first, if so, I'm afraid that my mother is okay now!

Thinking of this, Concubine Xi inevitably cried again, but she couldn't get up to deal with the prince again, and she just hated Wei Guifei in her heart.

On the prince's side, he took the lead in making a move, and Wei's, what enmity do he have against her? On the contrary, she harmed herself more!

The maid came forward to persuade: "Niangniang, don't be sad anymore, under today's happy festival, it is inevitable to see people, the eyes are swollen from crying, so that people can see doubts, how can it be good to spread the rumors?" The mother cleaned her face, freshened up, and passed well. ”

The Lantern Festival is also a banquet for internal and external women, and of course Concubine Xi can't help but go.

Concubine Xi nodded listlessly, changed her clothes, and when she combed her hair, she heard someone walk in and smiled: "Sister hasn't gone over yet, right?" I'll go over now, and I'll ask my sister to come along. ”

This is Concubine Ning's voice.

Concubine Xi had to hurriedly put away her mood, showed a smile, and smiled at the mirror: "My sister is here, sit down, I'm almost fine!" He snorted at the maid again: "Don't hurry up and serve tea." ”

smiled at Concubine Ning again: "This is a lazy thief, and it has always been unfavorable. ”

Concubine Ning hurriedly smiled: "Sister, don't be busy, where are we going?" Seeing that my sister is fine, I don't have to drink tea. ”

He also praised Concubine Xi's rouge color and the new hosta water head and feet, and waited for a while, seeing that she had cleaned up, he went with Concubine Xi.

The two walked on the road, and they were gossiping before, and halfway through, Concubine Ning laughed a little casually: "Yesterday, my sister-in-law came to the palace to see me, and I heard that the sister-in-law of the former King of Jin, the county lord of Changning, entered the palace to ask the princess Niangniang to say goodbye, and went back to the Jin Palace, don't you see that the princess of Jin didn't come today?" Someone is in a hurry! Amitabha, someone can finally cure her! ”

Concubine Xi thought about it for a while, and understood that Concubine Ning meant that the crown princess sent a message to the Jin Palace, and the Jin princess and the concubine were too close. Therefore, the Jin Palace's palace regulated the princess of Jin.

However, Concubine Ning's gloating tone, Concubine Xi was very resonant, and said: "No, people are now grand, it is the time when the spring breeze is proud, I am too angry, I dare not provoke, and the princess Niangniang's newborn calf is not afraid of tigers, dare to brush the tiger's whiskers, where do we dare!" ”

Concubine Ning said: "Isn't it, now the palace naturally counts her." ”

Concubine Xi couldn't help it a little: "The concubine is just a concubine, where is the position, and there is holy grace, let's just let it go, only her sister-in-law is crazy, there is a concubine in the family, and the bones of the madness are not three or two, and they are transferred to three nests and four in a day, and they are really like that, and now they rely on the momentum of the concubine Niangniang, and they almost didn't fly to the sky!" The serious master is not as good as her! ”

Concubine Ning understood, thinking that this concubine Xi had suffered the dumb loss of the concubine, and she couldn't afford to provoke the concubine, so she saw that the concubine always listened to her sister-in-law's lobbying, so she naturally settled the account on Wei Wen's family, she laughed in a low voice: "My sister is too kind-hearted, I can bear it like this, if you want me to say it, the concubine is noble, we naturally have to serve respectfully, but what is Wei Wen's family?" The husband is just a five-grade official, it is nothing more than the sister-in-law of the concubine and the daughter of Lord Wen, so he is going to overpower us, and I am just that, people still don't look down on me, but my sister is different, speaking of which, my sister was promoted earlier than the concubine Niangniang, this will be just a little accident, and it is called such a person...... Alas, even if I look at it now, I will inevitably feel uncomfortable with cold lips and teeth! ”

Concubine Ning's words really went to Concubine Xi's heart, and this is also where Concubine Xi is most resentful!

The crown princess and the concubine are stronger than her, she will not be so angry and painful, in the end, their status is higher than her, but such a woman, why does she dare to use her as a scapegoat!

Concubine Xi was silent for a long time before she said, "However, in the end, it is the sister-in-law of the concubine Niangniang, what can we do." If you can't bear it, you have to endure it. ”

Concubine Ning's eyes rolled and she said with a smile: "I don't agree with what my sister said, we don't dare to be disrespectful to the concubine, but we still have to endure that woman, so we have become the master of this palace in vain!" In the end, we are better than her, I don't believe it, my sister gives her a little color, and the concubine can do something to her sister! ”

Concubine Xi said: "What you said is the same, it's just ......" She was very eager to say something.

Concubine Ning approached Concubine Xi and laughed in a low voice: "My sister has a way, not only will she not hurt her muscles and bones, but she will also be able to give the Wei Wen family a faceless, and she will also know that the master in our palace is not easy to mess with, so I don't know if my sister dares to do it?" ”

Concubine Xi hurriedly said: "I'll listen to my sister's words." ”

The two held hands, Concubine Ning attached to Concubine Xi's ear, and said it carefully, and Concubine Xi nodded frequently, unconsciously showing a smile.

The Lantern Festival banquet was set up in the Zhaode Palace, Zhou Baolu was a little absent-minded, early this morning, before Zhou Baolu woke up, Xiao Hongcheng woke her up, and told her to take her out of the palace to see the lanterns at night!

Zhou Baolu was naturally excited.

Since entering the palace, it is more difficult to go out than when I was a girl, I can't go out without serious things, even if I go out, it can only be a limited number of places, and today I suddenly heard Xiao Hongcheng say that he can go to see the lanterns, walk outside like ordinary people, in the crowd, that kind of expectation is naturally needless to mention.

So Zhou Baolu is particularly unrelenting today.

The eldest princess smiled: "Sister-in-law, what's wrong with you?" Look at you, what's wrong with that? Under this big festival, there shouldn't be anything wrong, is it my brother? My brother bullied you? Sister-in-law, tell me, I'm going to beat him! ”

Zhou Baolu laughed: "What nonsense, nothing!" It's just that the womb is lively every day, and I'm a little tired. ”

"How can you compare with me!" The eldest princess immediately complained bitterly: "In the end, it's just the first day of the first dynasty, and now it's just that someone enters the palace every day to ask for peace, my sister-in-law didn't see my side of the house, and the wine banquet every day is just that, the most terrible thing is that the imperial capital is just these people, and there are a few high-ranking families, who borrow my place to entertain guests is nothing more than those people, but they love to borrow my place for New Year's wine, today's sister, tomorrow's younger brother, and then my cousin, and then my aunt and aunt, which one can I resign?" It's hard to offend anyone. ”

The eldest princess said with a gesture: "Sister-in-law, you haven't seen it, their hospitality list is exactly the same, and the people are also those, but today you are the master and the day after tomorrow, I will be the east, but I am bitter, I see them every day, and I am almost a family!" I want to tell them, if I clean up a few yards and come out, you can stay and sit down every day, so as not to come and go every day, and I will be tired of panic for you! ”

Zhou Baolu smiled and bent over, this ghost hunting, but it is really fun.

The second princess sat on the side and heard it, and said with a smile: "It's not what my sister said, I went to my sister's house for seven or eight days in a row to eat and drink, it's really better to live in my sister's house." It's better to be free. ”

Zhou Baolu just laughed, but she felt that it was not a bad thing that the Eldest Princess's Mansion was more lively.

The sister and sister were talking and laughing, and the eldest princess suddenly looked up, sniffled, and said, "What kind of smell is this, do you smell it, why is it a little burnt?" ”

Zhou Baolu felt as if it had such a taste, but before she could react, she saw that next to the throne of the concubine over there, a cluster of flames jumped, and the big red veil that hung down burned down, and suddenly she jumped up!
