What to do?

If this is really considered from Kunze's standpoint, it must be a non-stop operation, since it has disappointed the Empress Dowager Qu, given Chunjia a headache and faintly has the meaning of anger, it is even more impossible to offend the Empress Dowager Yuan...... It's better to grit your teeth and insist on marrying Yuan Shu!

After all, although the Empress Dowager Yuan coaxed Kunze, what she said was not all false: First of all, the Empress Dowager must have a heart for Xingning Bofu, otherwise what would she do for Chun Jiasai's niece and the marriage between the county lord and Yuan's son?

Secondly, Empress Dowager Yuan also has enough ability to influence Chunjia, but in view of the fact that Chunjia is not a foolish and filial master, and the Empress Dowager is not stupid, it is impossible for her to use this influence without restraint.

However, compared with other county horse candidates, Yuan Shu still has a great advantage in having such an aunt.

The third is that Xingning Bofu is now a young talent, and because of some operations in the eight years that Chun Jia forbeared, Chun Jia was also called a mustard, and now the Queen Mother does not mention him and does not take the initiative to promote the Yuan family. Because of this, even if they may privately feel that the county lord Kunze is ungrateful, that the county lord is stupid, and that the county lord has all kinds of bad ...... But as long as they don't have all their brains in the water, they can't treat Kunze lightly.

After all, Empress Dowager Yuan is a member of her grandmother's generation, how long can she protect the Yuan family?

Among the three Yuan daughters who entered the palace, Concubine An died in the future, Yuan Xianniang has passed away, Concubine Yuan Xian seems to be in a high position, but in fact, she relies on the support of the Empress Dowager Yuan.

Otherwise, there is no need for Yun Fenghuan to make a move, and these people can make her unable to eat and walk around.

Even if Concubine Yuan Xian is pregnant now, the child she gave birth to is not like Yun Fenghuang and Gu Zhen said, thinking of giving the queen a concubine, otherwise it will be similar to the situation of the four princes, neither the eldest nor the concubine, the biological mother is not favored, and she still expects the prince to be more in the limelight?

It may not even be as good as the Four Princes.

Because the fourth prince is the grandson of Yiguo Gong after all, Chunjia is very busy now, and the imperial heirs are young, except for the children in front of the favorite concubine, he will pay a little attention to it, and the other imperial heirs basically live with their biological mother or adoptive mother, and they have no opportunity and time to get along with their father. However, in the future, when the imperial heirs grow up, whether they are cultivated or canonized, Chunjia will always have to consider the decency of their mother's family.

If Empress Dowager Yuan was there at that time, she could still fight for Concubine Yuan Xian's heirs, and if she was gone, the Yuan family would be able to count on Kunze.

So now, Kunze's best choice is Yuan Ke.

But Yun Fenghuan would definitely not tell this county lord that.

Why did she let Empress Dowager Yuan get her wish?

"Does the county lord think that His Majesty has a deep relationship with the Queen Mother?" Yun Fenghuan's heart turned and asked softly.

Kun Ze didn't know why, and said: "Of course it's profound, otherwise why would Your Majesty respect the Queen Mother so much?" ”

"Isn't that it? The reason why His Majesty respects the Empress Dowager is because the Empress Dowager also treats Her Majesty as her own flesh and blood. Yun Fenghuang said, "In the same way, can the Queen Mother not feel sorry for the county lord?" The county lord is young, and it is understandable that he made mistakes, just ask how many mothers in this world can bear to worry about their children? In the final analysis, the county lord also did bad things with good intentions, and he wanted to share the worries of the Queen Mother. As long as you explain the ins and outs of this to the Queen Mother, is the Queen Mother willing to continue to blame you? ”

"It's the Queen Mother, it's not that the palace wants to provoke the family to stir up the flesh and blood of the clan, but the county lord, think about it, you grew up with the Queen Mother, although the Queen Mother is not your own mother, but she raised you day after day, and the love under getting along day and night is comparable to the Queen Mother who doesn't care about you? It's also a wrong thing, the Queen Mother can release your suspicions with you, but the Queen Mother may not be able to do it! ”

Kunze hesitated, she felt that this seemed to be very reasonable, but the grievances between the concubine and the Empress Dowager Yuan were also well known.

So is it because she is selfish?

"The most important thing is, has the county lord thought about it? The Empress Dowager is trying to persuade you to make trouble with the Empress Dowager and Her Majesty in order to marry the Yuan family. Even if this family business is beneficial to both of you, but in this life, no one can always have a peaceful wife, how can there be no quarrels? ”

"If the county lord marries someone else, you are the county lord of the clan, His Majesty's blood sister, up and down in this palace, who can not face you?"

"But if you marry the Yuan family, first of all, do you think that the Empress Dowager is more affectionate to her own nephew, or is it the monarch you who have not cared about it for more than ten years and have only warmed up in the past two days?"

"Secondly, even if it is in the palace, in the way of the Queen Mother, do you think anyone will dare to help you out?"

"Even Your Majesty!"

Seeing Kun Ze's face change sharply, Yun Fenghuang took advantage of the victory to pursue, "You see that this palace can be regarded as deeply favored by His Majesty, let's close the door and say something that is not good for the outside world: when Ji Sheng was still the queen mother, what was his status?" Your Majesty is not good at disrespecting her; There is also the former queen, the top noblewoman, and the wife of His Majesty! Former concubine Sun, niece of the hussar general, and an old man who entered the palace at His Majesty's wedding...... There is even Concubine Zhenxi, who is the only concubine of the Duke of Yiguo, before the palace entered the palace, this harem is the most desirable except for Concubine An! ”

"The former scenery of these people, the county lord grew up in the palace since he was a child, I am afraid that he knows better than the palace."

"But after the palace is favored, which of them is the opponent of the palace?"

"That's it, how many times have you seen the Empress Dowager find fault with this palace, when has this palace taken advantage? When didn't you confess your guilt with her, yes and wrong? ”

"Does the county lord think that after leaving the cabinet, he can still be closer to His Majesty than the main palace and His Majesty? In the eyes of His Majesty, can he be compared to the Queen Mother? ”

The county lord of Kunze had a pale face, if she had the status of Yun Fenghuang in Chunjia's mind, she wouldn't have to worry about the little benefits promised by the Empress Dowager Yuan.

“…… But I've said it many times now. The county lord thought about it again and again, and finally made up his mind, and said in a low voice, "Now that I regret it, even if Queen Qu doesn't care about me, how will Queen Yuan explain it?" And Your Majesty...... Your Majesty......"

Yun Fenghuang smiled slightly and said, "What's so difficult about this? You will go and confess your mistakes to the Queen Mother of Mary later, and when the time comes, everything will be pushed on the head of the Queen Mother, and you will say that after thinking about it, you still think that the Queen Mother raised you, so you must always listen to the Queen Mother of the Virgin Mary in charge of major events in your life. ”

Kunze whispered: "But if someone goes out and talks nonsense, it will be bad for my reputation......"

You are a county lord, or the emperor's own sister, what are you afraid of?

Don't say it's just a rumor, even if you really don't study well at a young age and mess around, there are people who want to climb the dragon and the phoenix racking their brains to vote for what you like, okay?

Yun Feng Huang said in his heart that when the Ji clan was in power and the opposition earlier, the Empress Dowager Yuan and the Empress Dowager Qu and the people under them were suppressed hard enough, and there were not many people talking about the fall of the Ji clan now, but the county lord of Kunze was still so hesitant, and he did not have the arrogance of an important sect daughter.

…… Well, if you think about it carefully, although this county lord has not been harsh, he has indeed not been favored. But it's no wonder that there are all kinds of scruples.

She cleared her throat and said, "Is the county lord confused? Who are you? His Majesty's blood sister-in-law, the golden branches and jade leaves raised by the Queen Mother! If someone dares to say something you shouldn't say, isn't this questioning what Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are? ”

"......" Kunze pursed his lips, thought for a while, believed it with some trepidation, and asked again, "Then what kind of horse do you think I should choose?" ”

"It depends on the county lord's own preferences." Yun Fenghuang only wanted to disturb the Empress Dowager Yuan's plan, but he didn't dare to guide her candidate for the county horse.

After all, whether it is Empress Dowager Yuan or Chunjia, they are not fools.

It's too obvious that she is doing tricks and feet, how can she explain it?

At this moment, he groaned, and said, "Life has been in the world for decades, whether it is long or short, it is not short, you must always find someone you really like, not to say that he will not marry, at least the county lord must be happy to see it, so that you will get along day and night in the future, so that you will not feel that it is a kind of torment, right?" ”

The county lord of Kunze pursed his lips, and after a while he sighed, and said, "I don't know what kind of man I like. ”

"Then pick the good one." If this is his own sister, Yun Fenghuang will suggest that the marriage be postponed, and after two years, he will wait until he has the idea to know what kind of husband he wants, anyway, the lord of Kunze is not very old now, and he can afford it.

But she didn't mean anything to this county lord, so it was naturally impossible to think about him like this, but she said, "The county lord's status is precious, and it is not bad to be qualified to be a county horse for you, and with such a person, even if you are ignorant at first, you will have a relationship after getting along for a long time." ”

If you don't take advantage of this time to finalize your marriage, what if Empress Dowager Yuan hits you again in the future?

"......" The county lord of Kunze hesitated for a while, and suddenly said, "There are no outsiders here, can I ask the noble concubine Niangniang something that is not good to say to the outside world?" ”

This is what Yun Fenghuang said just now, and he naturally will not object at this moment.

Then the county lord opened his mouth and asked: "I heard that the concubine is very good with her childhood sweetheart's ex-fiancé, but after entering the palace, she gradually got in touch with Your Majesty, does she just think that Your Majesty is very good, and you have been together for a long time and have affection?" ”

Although he understands that the county lord of Kunze is not familiar with affairs and wants to learn from his own experience and lessons, how can he say this as if accusing her of empathy?

Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes and said lightly: "This palace was only twelve years old when it left the Northland, the county lord thought about yourself when you were twelve years old, where did you know so much?" It's just that the family has been given a relative since childhood, and the two families often come and go, so they don't play together a lot, so it's just better. Actually, I was too young to know anything. It was only after entering the palace that I gradually understood that His Majesty was a person worthy of trust. ”

She felt hypocritical when she said this, so she hurriedly took a sip of tea and pressed it, and coughed dryly, "In fact, when it comes to choosing a county horse, the county lord should listen to the most is the suggestion of the Queen Mother." The people who can do the main marriage for the county lord are none other than the two queen mothers and Your Majesty. And the Empress Dowager has never raised the county lord, and she has to take care of her mother's family, so it is impossible to think about the county lord wholeheartedly; Your Majesty feels sorry for the county lord, but the county lord also knows that His Majesty still has three eldest princes to take care of, Yun'an Sui'an has already declined, but Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui is still in the boudoir, that is the daughter of the first emperor who has to let three points in the harem of the former dynasty, how can you fight for her? ”

"Only the Queen Mother, who is not only the one who raised the county lord single-handedly, has pity for the county lord, but also has no relatives to take care of, and even the palace says a heart-wrenching word, over the years, the biological flesh and blood of the Queen Mother has been growing up in front of the Queen Mother, and it is you, the county lord, who gets along with her day and night."

"In the eyes of the Queen Mother, the most important junior is probably the county lord!"

"Then the county lord's lifelong event, how can the Queen Mother ignore it?"

"If you are willing to listen to her, she will definitely give you a lot of choices. Even, even if there is a conflict with His Majesty's will, the Queen Mother may not be willing to give in easily...... Look at Xiangrui's matter, if you change your mother and the Queen Mother, will you touch Your Majesty's mold like this for you? ”

It's just that you will not be angry with your adoptive mother this time, this one has been more than her own son has endured for years, and whether he will continue to be sincere to you, but it is uncertain.

Of course, Yun Fenghuang would not tell Kunze this sentence.

It's not her own sister-in-law, and she hasn't given her any benefits or anything, why is she such a good person?

“…… Is it? Although Kunze tried to hide it, his face showed a little regret, and he said in a low voice, "I know." ”

Half an hour later, Yun Feng Huang Shi Ran arrived at the banquet in front, because her position was only below the queen, although she did not appear before, the seat was not removed, it was still placed, and she was seated at this time.

Because of the death of Bailu, the monarchs and ministers all intended to warm up the scene, singing and dancing juggling in turns, and there were clever courtiers such as Ouyang Yanran, taking advantage of the time of wine and smoke, after Ming Chunjia, he called his nephews into the palace to perform for some fun...... That's why it's very lively.

Yun Fenghuang left some of his entourage outside, and only brought four palace maids inside, and was smiling and watching the queen of one of his cousins, Sword Dance, being pulled off by the palace maid, only to find the concubine beside him, and he was curious: "Your Majesty came back early in the morning, what are you doing?" But still not feeling well? ”

"Lao Niangniang is worried about it, it's just a little thing." Yun Fenghuang raised the wine cup to her, and asked with a smile, "Who is this person down there?" Look at the weird spirits. ”

Gu Zhen didn't ask, drank her toast, and said with a slight smile: "It's a cousin in this palace, who loves to dance with knives and sticks when he is a child, and he can't sit still." I didn't expect to come to the royal court at this time. ”

said so, but the tone was very intimate, Yun Fenghuang praised a few words along the way, and his voice was low: "How can Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui look at the lack of interest?" Could it be that she hasn't taken a fancy to any of them until now? ”

Today's banquet is said to be to relieve the fatigue of the two queen mothers and the queen mother, but in fact, there are indeed considerations in this regard.

But most people know in their hearts that the real highlight is the choice of the eldest princess and the county lord in the palace.

At this moment, the people who came up to cheer were the children of various families who deliberately made their wives and daughters.

Dare to get the royal recommendation, not to mention the family background, he is tall and magnificent, he is still young, and his appearance is generally guaranteed.

For example, the children of the Gu family who are currently performing sword dance, looking about seventeen or eighteen years old, the young man is heroic, like a small tree with branches and leaves in spring, his sword dance skills are also very smart, quiet as a virgin and moving like a rabbit, plus although there is a slight tension between the eyebrows, he is still confident and generous overall, which shows that he is valued and cultivated at home, and is often carried by his elders to see the world.

The eldest princess Minghui, who was not far away, played with the fruit plate in front of her indifferently without raising her head.

"......" Gu Zhen subconsciously frowned before saying, "Who knows?" From the first time the children of a family came up to the present, she has not paid attention to it. At first, after His Majesty had praised her, he would ask her in a whisper what she thought, but he didn't ask for it now, because he didn't pay attention to it. She didn't care about teaching Her Majesty like this in front of everyone, but Her Majesty was afraid that she would make people talk. ”

Yun Fenghuang said thoughtfully: "Did the Empress Dowager send someone to tell you?" ”

At this time, the Queen Mother and the two Queen Mothers were not at the table.

"I just called someone to talk about it, the Queen Mother said that the marriage of the three eldest princesses, Her Majesty said before that she would make the decision herself, but why bother to ask her?" Gu Zhen sighed a little helplessly, "But I don't want to pay attention to it." ”

After a pause, she asked Yun Fenghuan, "Do you have a way to move this little ancestor, why don't you put on a face so brightly?" ”

"Where did the concubine come from?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "Niangniang said that she laughed." ”

Anyway, Chunjia will definitely give Minghui to the children of the Yun family, and when she thinks of this, she is troubled, and she doesn't want to see Minghui more and more...... Still going to persuade? What to persuade!

She picked up the wine cup and drank it all, and at this time, Gu Zhen's cousin's performance ended, and she received the reward and thanked her in a colorful sound and retired.

The next one to come up was two people, of which the right side looked like a companion, in his twenties, and the length was ordinary, in comparison, the boy on the left was very outstanding.

About sixteen or seventeen years old, brocade robe and leather belt, fair and beautiful, with a smile on the corner of the mouth, it looks very kind, giving people a feeling of warmth like jade.

The young man's eyebrows made Yun Fenghuang feel a little familiar, and as he was thinking about it, he heard the queen say: "Fang is the cousin of this palace, and it is your cousin who is here at this time." ”

Yun Fenghuang was about to say that the official positions of the Xie family's children were not high, and they couldn't get any benefits from this banquet today, so he didn't give them the opportunity to come to the banquet at all...... With a thought in his mind, he turned his head sideways and asked, "This is a disciple of the Yun family?" ”
