Chapter 113: After the Dead
At the beginning of this year's summer vacation, there was a lively scene because of the literary meeting, but there were all kinds of incidents later, so that I didn't dare to talk about it inside and out.
Not long after the emperor summoned Concubine An, news came out in the palace that the pregnant palace concubine under Jing Jieyu's hand had the heir in the womb pointed to Concubine An.
This made Jing Jieyu quite aggrieved, and she went to Yun Fenghuan to complain.
"Your Majesty and Concubine An are childhood sweethearts after all, and this palace has no way now." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "The palace concubine on the left and right is just a princess, and you already have one in front of you...... Don't be angry with Your Majesty about this. ”
Jing Jieyu actually doesn't really value the heirs of the palace concubine, as the concubine said, she already has a princess in front of her, if this one is the prince, then she will definitely be reluctant to give up.
Since she is also a princess, it is nothing to raise for other people.
She just couldn't swallow it.
This princess took a high position in power and robbed her, so she admitted it, but Concubine An ......
When ordinary people like Yun Fenghuang entered the palace, they had seen Yuan Neem Niang's favor with their own eyes, but when they arrived at Concubine Jing, there were relatively few of them, probably because they had heard of it.
When it was time to respect Jieyu, it was rare to see even the discussion that Concubine An was very favored in the palace.
After all, Concubine An was not the center of everyone's attention at that time.
Therefore, Jiang Mingdan and these people have a lot of favor for Yun Fenghuang, but they really can't look down on Yuan Neem.
And there are a few princes and princesses born in the palace in the past two years, Yuan Neem Niang doesn't cut off this or that, she takes a fancy to her, the princess who is about to land, isn't it because she is easy to bully?
But the concubine said so, and Jiang Mingdan didn't care about it anymore, so he only said: "The concubine body is actually not a domineering heir and refuses to give it, but I just heard from the people in the palace that King Shu was raised in front of Concubine An's mother, but then something went wrong?" King Shu is the prince anyway, Concubine An is still not interested, let alone the princess? ”
muttered again, "I heard that King Shu's biological mother, Li, was also the person in front of Niangniang." What does this Concubine An mean? Either the person who stares at the mother, or the person who stares at the concubine. Could it be that the person who sees the concubine as a mother is deliberate? ”
"At this time and that time, Concubine An was not sensible at that time." Yun Fenghuan sighed in his heart, coaxed her a few words with a pleasant face, and sent her away.
Concubine An is about to raise the princess, or from Jing Jieyu's hand under the concubine, which makes both inside and outside look at this matter very solemnly.
Concubine Min is the favorite concubine of the time-honored brand, and the emperor has not added many newcomers to the palace in the past two years because he is obsessed with government affairs.
The latest batch of people to enter the palace is this Jing Jieyu and others.
And among these people, Jing Jieyu is also the most favored one.
Everyone also knows that Jiang Mingdan has always followed Yun Fenghuan and is loyal to Yun Fenghuan.
In other words, the two generations of favorite concubines before and after did not protect this princess, and they were still given to Concubine An.
How can this not be food for thought?
Even the queen took time out of her worries about the Ten Princes and discussed with the left and right what was going on?
Someone at the bottom asked uneasily: "Isn't Concubine An going to be favored again?" ”
"How is this possible?" Most people thought it was incredible, "What kind of means is Concubine Min?" It's that Jiang Ming, looking at his youth, is not a fuel-efficient lamp...... These two are here, where will Concubine An be given any chance? What's more, Concubine An was not quite a beauty in the first place, and she has become more and more unsightly in the past two years...... How can Your Majesty think of her old feelings and fall in love with her? ”
But someone else proposed: "But the best one born in the palace is obviously the Nayi clan!" Yi's sex is also supple and will be served, but His Majesty's favorite is still Concubine Min...... It can be seen that His Majesty does not pay much attention to appearance. ”
Otherwise, if you talk about the emperor's favor, it should be Yi Xingen's first.
But in fact, Yi Xingen's degree of favor is not as good as Wei Hengyan.
In the past two years, it has not been as good as Jiang Mingdan.
Zhonggong thought about it, and it made sense, and he couldn't help but worry, recalling the tribulation of Yuan Neem when she was favored.
Under such an undercurrent, the birthday of the Queen Mother passed in a very low-key manner.
It's time to return in a blink of an eye.
On the way back, Yun Fenghuang received good news, that is, Princess Sui'an had already set off to the imperial capital with two girls, Xie Wuzheng needed to hand over to the successor, and there were still some places where he had to go to a banquet such as farewell, but it had to be late.
Now it is the people of the eldest princess's mansion who protect the eldest princess and other relatives and set off first.
Counting the days, before Xie Kuoyuan got married, Xie Wuzheng couldn't catch up, but Sui'an would definitely be able to arrive.
The envoy sent by Xie Wuzheng said: "The horse said, the Xie family is now withered, and there are only a few young ladies in the near branch who have not left the cabinet, and Miss Kuo has also been crowned a princess, and she wants to marry Wei Su far away...... The pony himself can't come, so he has to let His Highness add makeup on his behalf. ”
He also said, "When the mother stumbled into the palace by mistake, the horse failed to add makeup to the mother, which is already a big pity, and you can't miss the lady here anyway." ”
Yun Fenghuang knew very well in her heart that due to the grievances between the two houseowners and mothers when she was a teenager, her relationship with Xie Wuzheng was not good enough to make the other party worry about adding makeup to herself.
It's just that Xie Wuzheng said this, and it sounded more comfortable.
She asked the envoy Xie Wuzheng about the current situation of his wife with a pleasant face, and learned that everything was fine, that is: "Your Highness has been very attentive in cultivating the two young ladies in the past two years, but when you exchange letters with Your Royal Highness Yun'an, you are always a little depressed. ”
Yun Fenghuang thought of this sister-in-law's previous plan, had a headache, and sighed: "The palace knows, and when His Royal Highness arrives in the imperial capital, he will meet and talk about it." ”
So there was nothing to do, and the two concubines who came over were probably raised as their own children.
Yun'an's biological daughter Jinxi promised to get married, and Sui'an probably also wanted to give her daughter a good future...... It's not that Yun Fenghuan doesn't want to take a hand in this matter, the key is not to ruin her good plan!
Recalling Sui'an's temperament, Yun Fenghuang was not very worried, mainly because this golden branch and jade leaf were still very sensible.
After all, she is a favorite concubine, even if she is the eldest princess, she has to give her some face.
It's really not possible to use both soft and hard, can Sui'an still marry a girl raised by herself according to the heads of the children in front of her?
Thinking of this, Yun Fenghuan didn't pay attention to this matter anymore, and only ordered people to go to Princess Sui'an's Mansion to deliver some things first, and reminded them to clean up in case the master returned.
Two days later, the emperor arrived in Miyagi, and after some sprinkling, they were also settled.
didn't rest much, but after taking a breath, Princess Xincheng's distant marriage began to be in full swing.
Three days before the Mid-Autumn Festival, Xincheng asked Yun Fenghuan to let her go out of the palace to participate in a boudoir banquet, which was really held for the girls she had known over the years.
Yun Fenghuang was actually not very relieved, afraid that his niece and daughter would fall into the way.
But thinking about it, it is a question whether Xie Kuo can return to his homeland in this life, and whether his heart is soft or soft, he will agree. Just let her bring Qingren and Chicalyx with her, just in case of accidents.
Fortunately, Xie Kuo came and went safely, but there was nothing wrong, and he was in a good mood.
But the Qingren who accompanied the Qing and the red calyx came back with a little strange face.
Yun Fenghuan was puzzled: "What's wrong?" Something wrong with this feast? ”
"I don't know if it's a problem." The two hesitated for a moment before saying, "It's just that I saw a girl on the table, and I was a little suspicious, but I inquired later, and it was true." ”
Seeing that Yun Fenghuang raised his eyebrows and asked, Chi Cao whispered: "It seems that the Chao family gave birth to that child." ”
Too much time has passed, and no one mentions it every day, Yun Fenghuang reacted before realizing that it was Chao Jingyou and Qi Jiulu's daughter.
The years of her youth can be remembered but not recovered, and the concubine now recalls that the turmoil of the past has been indifferent.
At the moment, there is nothing complicated, and he asked curiously: "Who is she born like?" Teach you to recognize you by your looks? ”
Seeing her like this, Qingren and Chicalyx put snacks on them, and they dared to bring out a little smile: "Like General Qi." But that look was a little ...... This time, I went with Gu's daughter. Look at what she's wearing, her stepmother doesn't seem to be bad for her. ”
Before the assassination of Marquis Longping, he intended to recruit Qi Jiulu as his son-in-law, and before his death, he personally finalized the matter.
After the death of Marquis Longping, Qi Jiulu waited for his youngest daughter to finish his filial piety, so he fulfilled his promise and married him as a continuation.
He and his wife Chao Jingyou have always been not in harmony because of Yunfenghuan, and even once reached the point of hating each other.
And the Chen family, who originally advocated marrying Chao Jingyou, also thought that he could change to a more capable daughter-in-law with a father-in-law after his son entered the Dingbei Army and was appreciated by Gu Fangshu......
For various reasons, when the city of Huizhou was broken, Chao Jingyou, like many female dependents, died among them.
However, their daughters, because of the thin Qi family, still attach more importance to their daughters.
In times of crisis, he still managed to save the child.
Counting her age, this girl is about the same age as King Qin, and now it's time to wait for the boudoir. Yun Fenghuang thought about this, and asked casually, "Gu Girl...... Does Xincheng have a good relationship with Gu's daughter? ”
The reason why Xie Kuo knew that there might be a risk and still wanted to go to the banquet was mainly because she was a girl who had a good relationship with her today.
I am afraid that I will never see each other again, so I can't bear to miss it.
It's just that there is a Gu daughter here who is surprised that Yun Fenghuang is surprised, and she doesn't specifically prohibit her nieces and nephews from associating with the girls of her rival family, but Xie Kuo is not ignorant, how can she be very close to the queen's nieces?
Don't talk about considering my aunt's feelings, let's just say what if I get on the road?
"It's not the main branch, it's the side branch, and the relationship is far away." Qingren explained, "And it was also introduced by Miss Yin, so the Gu family's female companion Miss Yin is very compatible, and she is actually very close to His Royal Highness Xincheng...... His Royal Highness was a little apprehensive at first, and once said privately to Miss Meng, Miss Meng said that Niangniang would not care, and His Royal Highness breathed a sigh of relief. Today, when the Gu girl came, she also apologized, and told everyone behind the back of Miss Qi, saying that she didn't plan to bring this cousin with her. It was only my cousin who had a quarrel with the sisters at home, worried that staying at home would make the relatives unable to get off the stage, so she took her out on the orders of her mother, so that the family could discuss some countermeasures. ”
"As for what happened to be a fuss, the Gu girl didn't say anything, and the maidservants didn't want to ask."
Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly when he heard this, and said, "It's still like this at a relative's house? This kid doesn't have the same temperament as Chao's. ”
Chao Jingyou was the most pretending to be a young man, and he was used to showing others with gentleness, virtuousness, sensibility, thoughtfulness, and self-denial.
To be honest, although Yun Fenghuan will also pretend, he may not be able to grieve himself all the time to please others because he is small.
It is also that the Jiang family is much stronger than Chao Jingyou's mother.
Otherwise, I am afraid that it will be difficult for the northland ladies to be the turn of Yunfenghuang.
Now she heard that the daughter of Chao Jingyu, who had always been "the best lady of other people's families", was so troubled at a relative's house that she had to be taken out to be an uninvited guest, so that the elders had a chance to discuss countermeasures, she was really surprised.
"It seems that Xiao Gu's is not only good to her, but also very spoiled." Yun Fenghuang said slowly, "Otherwise, where can you raise such a sex?" ”
She didn't say much about this topic, after all, she and Qi Jiulu had been in the past many years ago, and their children were going to talk about marriage, did they still think about what they were looking forward to?
However, when an ordinary old man is curious, he asks, "Is there anything else?" After Xincheng comes back, can you ask the imperial doctor to see if he is okay? ”
Seeing that Qingren and Chicalyx both nodded, they were relieved, and said with a slight bow, "The wedding date is coming, the more careful the better." Immediately at the Mid-Autumn Festival, the children were also told to be careful at the banquet. ”
sighed again and said softly, "This palace can worry about her, that's it...... After the Mid-Autumn Festival, she left, no matter how much she thought about the palace in the future, she couldn't prepare everything for her, so she could only rely on herself...... I don't know if she will succeed or not? ”
