Chapter 129: What kind of person does the emperor like?
Yun Fenghuang managed to spread the word the next day, and on the third day, he met the Jiang family in the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion.
"Mother, Your Majesty intends to use the Jiang family as the master." As soon as the mother and daughter looked at each other, they cleared the scene, and she split her head and said, "Which cousin or cousin of the Jiang family does my mother think is suitable?" ”
"Jiang's son?" The Jiang clan said unexpectedly, "Why did Your Majesty think of the Jiang clan?" What's more, Her Royal Highness the princess is a golden branch and jade leaf, how can I match the small family in the north?! ”
Yun Fenghuang said quietly: "It's not the queen mother and queen mother, maybe it's because the Ji family can't do it, so I want to blackmail Princess Jinyun to descend to the young son of Haixi Hou, but the rumors in the palace have come out, and I was forced by Your Majesty to kill a group of palace people with a cane, and when this thing has not happened, Your Majesty turned his head and told me, let me inquire about the young unmarried scholar who will end up with Enke in the coming year, and I agreed, but His Majesty asked about the situation of the Jiang family the next day." ”
Jiang squinted at her: "Then Your Majesty has not asked me about the situation of the Xie family's children?" ”
"I just asked when the children of the Xie family would arrive in the imperial capital." Yun Fenghuang said calmly, "I think Your Majesty is still more inclined to the Jiang family." It's just that I don't know very well that my cousins and cousins are here this time...... But I don't know which cousin and cousin are so talented and moving, but they moved His Majesty in advance? ”
"I see that Your Majesty didn't say anything, but you are suspicious, and you can't even believe it, yes?" Jiang looked at her with a smile, and suddenly his face sank, "Tell the truth! ”
"......" Yun Fenghuang pinched the fan and said depressedly, "You said that you won't beat me anymore if I don't obey when I grow up!" ”
Jiang Shi said angrily: "Then you swore before that you would be obedient and not angry with me!" ”
Yun Fenghuang: "......"
Forget it, the ancestral words don't count, and the mother and daughter don't laugh at anyone.
With a sad face, she said, "God knows what His Majesty is up to!" He did, however, keep an eye on the men who had arrived for Enko, and thought that the princesses were looking for horses...... Didn't I think that the eleventh brother and they just didn't have a marriage match, and their talents were also outstanding, so maybe they could get into His Majesty's eyes? ”
"But two days ago, His Majesty suddenly asked about the children of the Jiang family, and urged me to meet you, this is ......"
"So you're worried that Your Majesty plans to let the Jiang family still be the master, and then my own mother is the daughter of the Jiang family, and I'm afraid that my elbow will turn outward, and I'm happy to see my mother's family marry the Heavenly Family?" Jiang snorted coldly, "So you tried me first?" ”
Yun Fenghuang cheekily stepped forward to hold her arm, and said affectionately: "Mother, what you said!" My daughter was taught by you, not to mention that the blue is better than the blue, is it so simple that you can see the flaws? It's not like I don't see you, so what's the point of expressing it directly? ”
"As far as what you've been doing in the past few months, it's better than blue." Jiang said disgustedly, "It's good if you don't get angry with me!" ”
But in the end, he didn't care about the temptation in his daughter's words just now, and Zhengse said, "The two of us talk in private, and we don't talk about those false things: it is true that if the Jiang family is out of the horse, Weiniang's position in the Xie family will be as stable as a mountain, and even directly pull down your eldest aunt and let your father surpass your uncle to become the head of the family, it is not impossible!" ”
"But once your eleventh brother and they win the favor of heaven, they will inevitably bless their parents, and when the time comes, our house will not have such a good status in the clan as it is now."
"However, if you calculate it this way, it is nothing more than a small profit within the Xie family, between one room and one branch."
"Looking at the harem in front of you, it can't help but look too stupid."
"Although the Jiang family treats our mother and son well, this is mainly because of the mother and you, and the status of the Xie family is not low, remember, sympathy, cultivation, guilt, gratitude, and affection...... These will breed respect and kindness, but they are all temporary, people's hearts are fickle, once they change, joy and hatred are only in a thought! ”
Jiang's face was expressionless, "But in this world, as long as you have enough strength and ability."
Enough, then even people who have never met and have nothing to do with will instinctively fear you and dare not be contemptuous. Long-term respect is always earned by oneself, not by the mercy or self-cultivation of others. For my mother to repeatedly warn you like this, how can you be a fan of the authorities? ”
"In today's world, marriage is recognized as a husband. Wei Niang was originally a daughter of the Jiang family, and if she married your father, she is a member of the Xie family. When he returns to the Jiang family, he is just a guest. If Wei Niang wants to consolidate her position in the Xie family, in order to suppress your aunts, and let you promote the Jiang family's sons, even if you can rely on this kindness in recent years to show off your power in the Xie family...... But what about later? When your mother is gone, how much help can your brother, sister-in-law, nephew, including you, get from the Jiang family? ”
"But if the lord is a disciple of the Xie family, the lintel of the Xie family is glorious, your brother and sister-in-law and nephew, is it possible that they will not carry it? After all, it is difficult to support alone, no matter how favored the horse is, it also needs the help of brothers and nephews, because the mother knows your worries, and will give you a sentence at this time: you just do what you want, the mother is not the eldest daughter-in-law, and over the years can maintain harmony with your aunt and aunt on the scene, although they are pressed with their wrists, in fact, it is also your aunt They are well aware of the righteousness, and they have always refused to make too much trouble for outsiders to see the excitement. ”
She sighed when she said this, and touched her daughter's sideburns, "You are often with Qi Jiulu at home, although the two of them have a good relationship, but because of this, they can't see things at home clearly." The harmony of the family, in the short term, can still rely on the mediation of scheming and skill, and the long-term peace and quiet will definitely not be the credit of one or two people, but the vast majority of people tacitly! ”
"My mother knows that you are trying to separate you from your sister for the sake of your cousins, and I don't have a good impression of the big room and the second room. But you must know that it is the proper meaning of the difference between the concubines. For the treatment of your sister and daughter-in-law, it is also subsidized from the private house, so the top and bottom have not said anything publicly. Otherwise, do you think this kind of thing will just be a petty fight between you children who are jealous? ”
Moreover, "Although Weiniang raised your sister as her own daughter, this does not mean that Weiniang hopes that other mothers-in-law will do the same: one is that Weiniang gave birth to your four brothers at that time, and there was a shortage of daughters, and your sister was ready to give her a chance to establish a virtuous reputation for her mother; The second is that your sister has a likable temperament. Changed to a white-eyed wolf, you really can't do it to the child as a mother? ”
The means of learning from the children of the Jiang family were not unfamiliar before they left the cabinet.
It's just that Xie Fengfeng won her love and didn't want to use it.
"In short, you are the daughter of the Xie family, and you plan for the Xie family as a matter of course, so no matter whether the matter is done or not, and it spreads, the Xie family is only grateful to you, and the Jiang family has nothing to say." Seeing that his daughter was silent, the Jiang family sighed, patted the back of her hand, and said earnestly, "If you plan for other people and don't say anything else, you will offend the Xie family first!" If it fails, it means that neither of them is found...... You are my daughter, can I still give up your future for the sake of my little bit of will? ”
“…… It's not just that. Yun Fenghuang thought for a while and whispered, "I'm still worried, is this a temptation from Your Majesty?" ”
Jiang raised his eyebrows, his eyes revealing an inquiring color.
"Your Majesty bluntly said that she didn't like the queen mother's choice of the queen mother for Her Royal Highness Princess Jinyun, and forcibly issued a gag order to ...... the princess to Na Ji Ming" Yun Fenghuang whispered about the accident of praying for blessings, "Then I asked about the children of the Xie family, and asked the children of the Jiang family two days ago, and urged me to meet with you." I thought, doesn't Your Majesty want to see if I will act in my own interests, or will I think about the holy will and consider Your Majesty? ”
Jiang Shi snorted: "This royal rule is really ......."
Then he said, "What do you have to worry about this?" For your own consideration, of course, I am recommended as a disciple of the Xie family; For the sake of Your Majesty, Your Majesty's promotion of my children in the North is nothing more than to resist the Dingbei Army, so my Xie Clan's network prestige in the North is not stronger than the Jiang Clan? Moreover, Northland has been the most admired over the years
It's the Qi family, and the son of Qi Jiulu has clearly voted for the regent palace! ”
"Except for my Xie clan, who can compete with the Qi clan?"
The Jiang family said as a matter of course, "Besides, our family was withdrawn by the Qi family back then, if His Majesty intends to start with the Qi family in the future, there is no need to find a reason!" ”
The voice was low again, "Not to mention that because of your marriage contract with Qi Jiulu back then, the relationship between the two families was good, what is the background of the Qi family, and it is the seventy-seven-eighty-eight that my mother knew early in the morning!" Even if His Majesty wants to vote, it is not impossible. ”
It's like coming to the Dijing Road to meet Qi Jiulu with tears in her eyes, a "virtuous nephew", as if the mother and son have been separated for many years, and finally reunited, and the person who can't wait to hug her head and cry is not her......
Although he had long known that his mother was skillful in front of him and behind his back, Yun Fenghuang was still a little speechless: "Mother, he grew up with you, even if he doesn't compare with me, he's only a little worse than his sister, right?" ”
Qi Jiulu is more well-behaved and obedient to the Jiang family than to his own mother Chen.
On the one hand, it is to look at the face of the clouds; The second aspect is that the Chen family is far from coaxing children with the Jiang family......
Yun Fenghuan felt that if she was the Jiang family, she would still be a quasi-son-in-law after more than ten years of love, and she estimated that she would not be able to calculate the value of the family and even the family.
But for the Jiang family, this is all a matter of course: "Back then, your sister's affairs involved your reputation, do you think the Qi family doesn't know that you are wronged?" But didn't they choose to quit their families? Of course, I don't mean to resent them. It's just that life is like this: everyone must think about themselves and their own family first, and then they can think of others. Even some people will only think about themselves in this life and don't think about what others will do. ”
"As you said, for my mother to watch Qi Jiulu grow up, it's impossible to say that I don't like him."
"But before you and your brothers, sisters-in-law and nephews live a stable life, other people's children, for the mother, I can't care about their life or death!"
She didn't have the slightest expression on her face, and said calmly, "After all, you are my children and grandchildren, and I should take care of you." Qi Jiulu is not! ”
"......" Yun Fenghuang knew that he couldn't convince her, so he sighed in his heart and said, "That's it, but don't rashly attack him." Did Your Majesty know my relationship with him, or did I say it myself? At this time, our family will attack him, what do you think Your Majesty will think of us? As you said before, even if Your Majesty pretends to be gentle and tolerant for all these years, he will inevitably be infected with some real generosity. He won't like the ruthless and unrighteous people who cross the river and tear down the bridge. ”
"I'm glad that you're willing to consider what kind of person Your Majesty likes." When Jiang listened, his eyes softened, and he smiled, "I have inquired about some news for my mother these days, and I have thought about it carefully, in fact, your current situation is not bad: although it was a mistake, but you have never concealed your true temperament in front of Your Majesty, in fact, it is crooked." ”
Waving her hand to stop what her daughter wanted to say, she said in a low voice, "Our majesty has a reputation for being studious when he was in Fuyang County, although it was deliberately done by the Empress Dowager Yuan, but it is true that she managed to find out a few things for her mother: when he was just learning to write, the Queen Mother was afraid that he would hurt himself when he was young, so she stipulated that even if he couldn't write well, he wouldn't write a certain amount a day at most. But he himself was not satisfied, and at a young age, he would rather hide from the Queen Mother and quietly practice...... Later, the practice of martial arts was similar. It wasn't until he ascended the throne that he was probably afraid of attracting the Ji family's taboo, so he reined in a lot and kept his head in obscurity. ”
"You said that his background, even if he didn't understand it when he was a child, he didn't know his family's dignity when he inherited the knighthood, even if he didn't have to work, he could eat and drink for a lifetime? Even if he is afraid that the throne of the concubine is not stable enough, and he is worried that he will have trouble in the future if he relaxes, with a mother like the Empress Dowager Yuan, as long as he can behave, can the Empress Dowager not give him the drips of water that he preached? ”
"But I can continue to study hard, this heart, this perseverance...... What kind of person would he like, you say? ”
