Volume 1 Chapter 16 Attention is not without reason

When Qin Xun was not famous all over the world because of the domination of a country, the reputation of "the first fear of the country" did not go away, but he was not ashamed but proud, and he was too lazy to explain that he actually had a bit of a husband.

Of course, there are occasional times of self-righteousness.

At this time, Qin Xun began to point out the old lady's "mistake": "I know Madame's thoughts, and I want to take this opportunity to make friends with Luo Guifei, for the sake of my Qin family's long-term prosperity and stability in the future. ”

"Isn't the official planning to scrap the reserve?" The old lady was stunned.

"Waste or not, no one can be sure of it, but at this time it is more appropriate to remain neutral, now the urgent is the concubine, we are not in a hurry to stand in line, the temperament of the official family, unpredictable, more unpredictable than the first emperor, if the official family has made up their minds, there is no room for a word of opposition, if there is a minister against the will of the official, it is not immediately attacked, and afterwards can always pull the handle of the rebel, the matter of settling accounts after the autumn is not only one or two over the years, we are the old ministers of Kaifeng, At one time, he was exiled to Liao along with the first emperor and the first prince, but he was not the former minister of the Jeju Qiandi, so we are different from Zheng Guogong and other today's nobles, and we are more cautious. ”

Mrs. Wang's expression changed at this time: "I really didn't think about it this time, I thought that the queen mother has no heirs under her knees, the prince has been in the East Palace for all these years, and the prince has not made a mistake, how can the official family be abolished?" And isn't King Wei the main battle? I heard Xianggong say last time that the emperor clearly intends to negotiate peace with Liao, how can he suddenly belong to King Wei again? ”

"King Wei is not simple." Qin Xun patted his old wife's shoulder: "Where is he the main battle?" The official family will fight the main battle, and the official family will fight with him, but the prince, I don't know who has instigated him recently, and he has been saying good things for Eju, in the eyes of the official family, the prince is undoubtedly the main battle. ”

The old lady was silent for a moment and said: "No matter what the situation in the court is, but the third girl disobeys her mother, and dares to assert herself when she sees a high branch stretched out in front of her eyes, this matter should not be spared!" ”

"Sanniang is beautiful, clever and clever, it will be of great use to keep her in the future, I am not dissatisfied with the eldest daughter-in-law, I just think her vision is too short-sighted, no wonder, although she is also the niece of Mrs., in the end, her father is not like the eldest brother, and Mrs. is a brother and sister of the same mother."

The old lady understood the meaning of Qin Xun's words, and snorted lightly: "I can save it, the lord has other arrangements for Sanniang, it just so happened that the eldest lady came to see me yesterday, and also said that Sanniang has the idea of climbing high branches, so it is not suitable to marry to the Peng family again, the old man should have explained clearly to Sanniang just now, don't think that she interfered with Siniang's marriage, and she can climb the high branches of the fifth prince as she wishes." ”

"Yes, of course I warned Sanniang not to be delusional, but since I want to use this granddaughter, I have to appease her while she is still in the boudoir, and I am too strict with her, and she will not miss our good in the future."

"It's okay, as long as she doesn't get in the way, I can't afford to play and suppress such a yellow-haired girl, it's that the eldest woman is extremely nerve-wracking, the three girls can't be counted on, and she doesn't have anyone else to count on, I'm afraid that Ge Peng's instigation will make it difficult for the Ge family's wife, and the Peng family has no one who can restrain Ge Peng's family." The old lady said: "Although Ge Erlang is Zi'er's own son-in-law, the father-in-law also agrees with this marriage, but I have to plan well for Zi'er, otherwise I still won't tolerate the three girls!" ”

"Madame and lady are concerned and messed up." Qin Xun shook his head: "The eldest daughter of the Peng family is virtuous and speechful, but if she gets the praise of the Zhou sage, she will definitely not cause trouble and make the family restless; Let's talk about Ge Chengzhi and his wife, although they have a strict temperament, they have a good reputation for governing the family uprightly, how can they be harsh to women for no reason? ”

"Knowing people, knowing faces, but not hearts." The old lady retorted: "Besides, it is because the wife of the Ge family is upright that she can look down on a woman like the daughter of the Peng family, but we are raised like a jewel, how can our temperament be as rigid as the daughter of the Peng family?" Xianggong is a man, I don't know the thoughts of the women in the house, how many concubines are indispensable to compare and reckless, Ge Peng's and Zi'er can't get along, they will say Zi'er in front of their mother-in-law, Ge's wife is eccentric, and she will suppress the little woman, and our Zi'er married him Ge's family is not to be wronged and picky. ”

The emotional old wife is not to marry a granddaughter to the Ge family, but to marry an ancestor to the Ge family, Qin Xun suddenly felt speechless, so he had to actively use his brains to solve the old wife's worries: "There is no suitable girl in our family, isn't the eldest brother having a suitable granddaughter?" How did Madame forget this ballast? ”

The old lady's eyes lit up.

Her brother is nearly fifty years old and has an old son, is a concubine, named Wang Bai, Wang Bai's eldest daughter is this year and Xu, although the old lady has always thought that the Wang family is even a concubine out of the concubine is more expensive than ordinary girls, but this Wang Auntie has a natural lameness defect, and the old lady's eldest brother and sister-in-law have passed away, so several sons have been separated, Wang Bai only got a trial to be the shadow of the prison master, and the hard work for many years is just to remove the word "test" in front of him, The old lady thought about marrying the concubine of Wang Bai's family to the Peng family, which was indeed not very low.

Qin Xun finished ordering this mandarin duck score, and saw that his wife was finally satisfied, so he changed the topic: "Wen Shangshu mentioned as early as two months ago, his family set up a garden by the West Lake, and it took a lot of thought to arrange it, and a large piece of green bamboo was planted in it, and a high-rise building was built, so that I could enjoy the sunset of Leifeng from afar, and invited me to take the time to go to his garden to play, and by the way, I gave the high-rise a plaque." Today is the middle of the month, if the lady is interested, why don't we go to the garden of Wenshangshu to play, enjoy the sunset in the evening, and by the way, you can also go to Qingfeng Lou to eat and drink. ”

The old lady thought for a while and said: "Xiangdi is good anywhere, but it is a little short of far away from the West Lake, I am getting older, and I am gradually lazy to go out, and I have not been to the West Lake for more than half a year. ”

The old couple never thought of "dragging their family with their mouths" when they went out to play, and the same is true today.

But the old lady was completely coaxed by Qin Xun to smile, but the eldest lady's anger did not subside so quickly.

She was interrogating Amber at this time.

"You have been employed by the Xiangdi for some years, and the old lady personally assigned to Erniang, so since you arrived in Qionghua Building, I mentioned that you were a big girl, and I saw that you were indeed stable, so there is nothing to worry about, but I never expected you to be so reckless today! Mangzhong's incident was nothing in the first place, could I still let her be expelled from the prime minister's mansion for this little mistake? The result is good, you made such a fuss, but it made Qin Fangqi's evil obstacle complacent! ”

Amber shrunk her shoulders, bowed her head and knelt on the ground to be trained, and she was afraid that she would also lose her mission, so she dared to justify: "The slave didn't expect that the princess would ask about the personnel ...... the inner house."

"Is it your fault that you didn't think it through? It's your fault that you shouldn't have made your own decisions at all! ”

"The eldest lady is angry, and the slave knows that she is wrong." Amber cried: "The slave is worried that since Sanniang dares to say that she wants to expel the mangzhong, she must have held the handle of the mangzhong, forcing the lady to have to send the mangzhong." But because of yesterday's incident, the old lady will definitely complain about Sanniang, if you hear that the lady not only did not find Sanniang's fault and let the old lady out of her chest, but was calculated by Sanniang, and used the eldest lady to stand up in the Qiuliang Pavilion...... The slave was worried that the old lady would complain that the lady was not decisive enough to look ahead and act backwards.

As long as the old lady spoke, Sanniang would never dare to contradict it, which would not only avoid embarrassment for the eldest lady, but also save the mangzhong and thwart Sanniang's tricks. ”

The eldest lady sneered: "When did you have so many ideas, you give me a good life to think about, did you listen to someone instigated to do such a stupid thing!" ”

There is no need to think about it, Amber immediately felt like an initiation: "It was this morning in Guanchun Garden that Miao Niangzi told the slave maid that if she didn't take the lead, the eldest lady would probably suffer another dark loss." ”

It's actually Miao?!

The eldest lady was extremely suspicious.

Amber said again: "If the eldest lady doesn't believe it, the slave dares to confront Miao Niangzi face to face!" ”

"What a joke, who are you, who is she, and you are qualified to confront her?!" The eldest lady sneered.

Miao is not a servant of the Xiangdi, her husband's surname is Qin, is another distant nephew of Qin Xun, when he was in Kaifeng City, Qin Chu took office as the family's chief steward, and later Kaifeng City was broken, not only Emperor David, the prince, the concubine, and the emperor's family were taken captive by the Liao soldiers to go to Beijing, many officials and businessmen were also taken captive, and Qin Xun's family was not spared, and Qin Xun and his wife could obviously escape the fate of the captivity, but they voluntarily followed Qin Xun's family to Beijing, since then, Qin Xun treated Qin Xun even more unusual, The Miao family is also becoming more and more favored by the old lady.

Unexpectedly, after a trial, it turned out to be the amber instigated by the Miao family to be stupid?

The eldest lady didn't believe that Fang Qi had such a big means to entrap the Miao family for her use, no matter how she thought about it, there was only one possibility: "This matter should be my heart, but there is no need to say more if this is already the result, but you remember it for me, if you still want to take the salary of Xiangdi, you can no longer make your own claims in the future." ”

After sending Amber, the doctor called Jiang Yuan in: "Call the tooth man who is willing to do it, come on, in front of the tooth person, make it clear that it is not my family who broke the contract for no reason, it is that Mangzhong is disobedient and offensive, and we should recover half a year's salary to be considered compensation, but my family does not care about this money, and this must be explained in front of Mangzhong, lest Yaxing want to claim compensation, but she thought that it was Xiangdi who did not forgive." ”

Jiang Yuan responded one by one, not busy with this matter, but gritted her teeth and said: "Today's matter, although it is strange that Amber is too reckless, but Xianggong did not ask about the trivial matters of the inner house before, why did he make an exception for Sanniang today?" ”

"Father Weng has always paid more attention to Qin Fang than the rest of his granddaughters, why don't you even know?"

"Or because of Su Xiaoniang!"

The eldest lady waved her hand tiredly: "No matter how much the Su family can, once she becomes Lang Jun's concubine, she will no longer be the Miaoyin Immortal who was popular and popular for a while, and this is Lin'an and not Shangjing, her methods will no longer be used." Su Shi is an understanding person, so she simply left the Xiangdi and hid in the grange, she has lived so desirelessly, if I ...... Not to mention Weng's father, I'm afraid even my mother-in-law will complain about me. ”

And the most critical thing now is not the evil of Qin Fang, let alone the Su family, but how to smooth out all the obstacles and hidden dangers in the future for Erniang.
