"The emperor likes smart and motivated people." In Fangyin Pavilion, Empress Dowager Yuan held gold scissors in her hand, carefully trimmed the flower branches in the vase, lowered her eyes slightly, and said lightly, "Virtue is not worthy, there will be disasters, this is the words that his mourning family repeatedly instilled in him when he was young." At that time, I was just worried that the child was not qualified, and today's ambition will be forgotten tomorrow. Who knows, but the emperor listened to it and practiced it. ”

"Now that I think about it, I have something to do with the old lady."

"The old lady doesn't like to mourn her family, and she doesn't even have much grandmother's love for the emperor's grandson...... When the old lady was there, she had the final say in the Fuyang Palace. Even if the emperor is the only male heir of the prince, it is not very safe to live in the mansion. ”

Jin Jian stopped among the flower branches, and the Queen Mother's eyes were in a trance, "So I heard the mourning family say that as long as he works hard with the teachers, even if he fails to succeed and our mother is kicked out of the palace, he can rely on his schoolwork to have a place in this world, and he has not slackened for a day." ”

How can a child not be playful?

Especially Emperor Chunjia is not as frail and sickly as his biological father Fuyang Duanwang, he should follow his mother's appearance and physique, handsome and healthy, and a boy, four or five years old is a cat and a dog, but he can control himself, nothing more than because of the pressure brought by the identity of the concubine, he has followed him since he was a child.

At first, I was afraid that King Fuyang Duan would go to the future country, and my life would be unsustainable; Later, he finally made an exception to accept the knighthood, and he was worried that if he did not perform well, he would be impeached as a "concubine", and he would gain and lose; In a few years, Dijing ascended the throne, and his status was higher, but there were more involvement......

Chunjia has gone from ignorance to now, but in fact, he has not lived a day of free life.

Empress Dowager Yuan knew that she didn't want him to develop a self-pitying temperament, so she taught him to study hard and practice self-reliance when he was a child to prepare for the worst outcome; When he grew up, he told him that "the heavens will descend on the people", encouraging him to move forward with a heavy load, and be strong and cheer up; Bigger...... Bigger, Chunjia herself has read a lot of books and has her own ideas.

Naturally, the influence of the Empress Dowager Yuan on him was imprinted, and the emperor himself has always been conscientious and did not dare to slack off, and he admired and liked the same people.

"Neem just doesn't understand this truth." The golden scissors moved lightly, cutting off a cluster of flower branches, and the fine petals fell all over the table, and the Empress Dowager Yuan's eyes were calm and waveless, and she said lightly, "When she was a child, she was rude, pestering the emperor to prevent him from practicing calligraphy and martial arts, but when she asked him to play with her, the emperor did not show it on his face, and he was already bored in his heart. ”

"At that time, the mourning family never thought that one day the emperor would ascend to the Ninth Five-Year Plan, thinking that since you agreed to marry as your grandfather and grandmother wished, then they could not be asked to be a couple from the beginning. Therefore, he coaxed the emperor in private, and told him that there is a difference between men and women, he is the pillar of the family, and he should strive to support the court. ”

But this reason failed to convince Junjia from the beginning.

Because he was too young at that time, even if he won the title of the son of the world, he still didn't have enough strength to be able to bear his own life. Only hard work day after day can give him a sense of security.

In this case, where does Chunjia have the heart to appreciate his fiancée's "innocent and carefree"?

He felt that Yuan Neem was a dragger.

Disturb his schooling, disturb his martial arts practice, and disturb his life...... Of course, when she was a child, she was not completely utilitarian, in the final analysis, Yuan Neem's appearance was not particularly good, and she couldn't make Chun Jia feel extra tolerant when she saw it.

He even told the Empress Dowager Yuan privately that he would rather have a maid as his wife, after all, the maid who served him was very capable and caring, and it was much easier to get along than dealing with Yuan Neem What could Empress Dowager Yuan do? This is not her own child, and she cannot let him be separated from herself; But the niece is a niece, and her mother's family is behind, so she can't be offended.

"The emperor was still young at the time, and the mourning family could talk about him and prevaricate. But children will always grow up, especially the emperor's talent and intelligence, he will understand when he grows up. The Queen Mother sighed, took two steps back and looked at the bouquet in front of her, looking for if there was anything that needed to be repaired, "In that case, he would."

Even if you don't blame the mourning family, I'm afraid you won't have the same trust in the mourning family as when you were a child...... Therefore, the mourning family can only tell him the truth. ”

The fact is that the concubine of Fuyangzhuang values the concubine and does not care about the concubine Emperor Chunjia, for the direct planning for this concubine to ask for the title of the son, what the concubine wants to do more is to change her daughter-in-law once and for all, and give birth to a grandson who is rightfully named.

It is natural to inherit the prince in this way, and there is no need to look at the face of the court at all.

Empress Dowager Yuan had no choice but to ask her mother's family for help.

Yuan then proposed that after the matter was completed, Yuan must produce another princess.

Dowager. After a counteroffer, Chunjia could marry the daughter of the Yuan family, but if there was no concubine for five years after marriage, the princess had to give way, because it was impossible for the imperial court to agree to the king of Fuyang, and made an exception twice in a row.

In this way, the other vassal kings in the world will also make trouble.

So Yuan Melia Niang often grew up in the feudal palace since she was a child, and said to the outside world that the two children were childhood sweethearts and had no guesses, in fact, it was Yuan's acquiescence that once this daughter could not give birth to a son-in-law, there would be a second one immediately, so I didn't want to think too hard.

own blood and bones, the more thoughts you spend, the more reluctant you are.

Moreover, if it is well taught, in case it is really time to change people...... Maybe it's going to change.

"The mourning family herself is the daughter of the Yuan family, although she sees that Neem Niang is not as good as the emperor, in the end, she is connected with flesh and blood, and she didn't want to teach her badly at first. It's just that this child is used to being praised by the people around her, and she doesn't listen to it, and the mourning family doesn't want to use harsh means, and before she knows it, she has become what she is now......"

Empress Dowager Yuan handed over the golden scissors to the side of the dipping willow, and then put her hand in the golden basin brought by the palace maid, took a snow-white handkerchief and rubbed her fingertips carefully, and said slowly, "Originally, the family said that it was good, but Neem Niang was not good, so they would make up for it by the Gardenia Niang who was also born below." But the world is unpredictable, the emperor has ascended the throne, and the requirements of the vassal king's step-concubine and the emperor's favorite concubine are naturally different. Among the girls of this generation, who have not yet come out of the cabinet, you have the best color, before, the mourning family also thought that you entered the palace......"

Not far away, Yuan Mingniang was dressed in a water-pink palace dress, a light blue embroidered branch treasure flower shawl, a golden hairpin was obliquely inserted on the fallen horse bun, and the whole person threw herself to the ground, kneeling on the skull, this posture could not see her expression and face clearly, only listening to a delicate voice with a light tremble: "Auntie...... Aunt...... Please excuse my aunt......"

"Forgive what?" Empress Dowager Yuan sat down on a wide chair covered with woven gold brocade felt, and said in a friendly manner, "You are just acting on orders from your family, after all, your aunt is still in the hands of your father, isn't it?" ”

She chuckled, "The Yuan family thinks that Neem Niang is no good, so they are in a hurry to let you enter the palace to consolidate their pet." Well, Gu Yuan's pet. Two days ago, the emperor has been in Cuiyin Courtyard, and as soon as he leaves, you will naturally come over to ask the mourning family for a recipe to please him...... It's a pity that this Fang Zi Mourning family told you, can you do it? ”

Yuan Qian Niang hesitated on the ground and didn't dare to answer, she was not Yuan Neem Niang, she grew up in front of the Queen Mother and Emperor since she was a child, and she had no reverence for these two, and she wanted to say anything.

Although she is also the niece of the Queen Mother, she has never met the Queen Mother a few times, and this is the first time she has spoken alone...... She wasn't sure if her thoughts would provoke the Queen Mother's anger?

was hesitating, but the Empress Dowager Yuan had already said: "You can't do it, you didn't answer immediately, it can be seen that you are actually not sure in your heart." ”

Yuan Qian Niang bit her lip, was silent for a moment, and suddenly said: "Auntie, my niece is only a shallow student, so she can't directly win Your Majesty's favor!" But the niece is not a sister of Neem, and she has no ambition to monopolize the king's heart, and the niece only wants to have a place in this palace, to be able to give birth to her mother and repay the kindness of Yuan's upbringing, and she is already satisfied! ”

"There's no problem with that." Empress Dowager Yuan said casually, "Don't talk about you, it's Neem Niang, as long as you don't cause any major trouble in the future, the emperor will always give this face to the mourning family." Do you have anything else going on? ”

If not, it should be said goodbye Yuan Liniang understood what she meant, but she didn't get up, but clenched her fists, mustered up courage, and said: "Auntie, please let your niece and nephew serve you!" ”

Before the words fell, the room was silent.

Yuan Qian Niang suddenly knelt down

It's a little more upright.

"......" Empress Dowager Yuan was silent for a while before chuckling, but called her close attendant, "Dip in the willow." ”

Dipping willow lowered his eyebrows: "The maid is here." ”

"You go and pass a message to Xingningbo's mansion." Empress Dowager Yuan supported herself with one hand, the corners of her mouth were curved, but there was no smile in her eyes, "What the mourning family owes to the Yuan family has long been settled." ”

Dipping willow: "Yes." ”

Yuan Liniang didn't dare to move.

After a long time, she was almost fainting on her knees before she heard the sound of leaving.

After a while, she seemed to be the only one in the room, and she sat up tremblingly, and Fang breathed a sigh of relief, and suddenly found that someone behind her was looking at her, cold and full of hostility.

Yuan Qian Niang was startled, and subconsciously turned her head, but she saw a familiar figure, and she quickly knelt down again: "Sister Neem Niang......"

Yuan Neem Niang quickly turned her eyes away from her.

…… The aunt and nephew in the Fangyin Pavilion have dispersed, but in the Lanzhou Night Rain Pavilion, the conversation between the mother and daughter continues: "...... Don't listen to what the palace says outside the palace, Your Majesty and Yue Jieyu's childhood sweethearts must be more in love with Jin Jian if they don't guess, Qi Jiulu and Chao Jing are difficult to achieve, didn't they grow up together? But do you think he's kind to Chao Jingyou? ”

"Your Majesty himself is a strong man, how can he like that kind of ignorant master?"

"The grievances between you and Your Majesty and the Queen Mother are nothing more than because of Yuan Neem, so you really don't need to feel that even if you admit your mistake, their mother and son will not let you go one day, Yuan Neem Niang really doesn't have that much weight in their hearts!"

Jiang's brows furrowed, "Your biggest trick is that you shouldn't admit that you have a relationship with Qi Jiulu...... But this has come to this, and frustration will not help. Your Majesty is only in power, and the regent is still in his prime, Your Majesty will not need our family for a while, and he is willing to be kind to you. Take advantage of this time, you get along with him with your heart, and when the time comes, you will have affection, and a little thing when you are a teenager will not be so important...... Anyway, you really haven't had anything to do with Qi Jiulu! ”

Yun Fenghuang lazily reminded her: "Mother, you forgot that Yuan Neem Niang has been with him for more than ten years, or from childhood to adulthood, his affection for Yuan Neem Niang, tsk." ”

"The Chen family is still Qi Jiulu's biological mother!" Jiang sneered, "Isn't my cheap aunt talking to Qi Jiulu better than her?!" Isn't the love between a biological mother and child more difficult to give up than the relationship between men and women? What I can do, your daughter, who prides herself on being better than blue, doesn't even have confidence in this idea? ”

She glanced at her daughter in annoyance, "Or do you think that you and that Yuan Neem Niang are just good all the way?" ”

"......" These words were too heart-wrenching, Yun Fenghuang was silent for a while before he said quietly, "You are deliberately provoking me!" ”

Jiang's expression remained unchanged, and he said coldly: "If you think you are better than Yuan Neem, why do you think that what Yuan Neem Niang failed to do, you can't do it?" ”

Yun Fenghuang looked at her for a while, sighed, and slowly sat up straight: "Then what do you think I will do next?" ”

"I said, except for Qi Jiulu, haven't you done a good job? Otherwise, how could Zhaoyi be done at this time? Jiang's heart was relieved, knowing that this daughter had finally agreed euphemistically until this moment, not wanting to be able to live, and if she couldn't live, she would die, she really planned to live for a long time, instead of perfunctory After walking herself, she continued to do her own thing, Su Yunfeng felt that it was just that her brother and sister-in-law stayed in the imperial capital and couldn't do anything about her.

Jiang himself thinks so, Xie Clan, except for herself, there is really no second person who can suppress this daughter.

Before leaving, this daughter's thoughts could not be corrected, and even if she returned to the Northland, she would only hear the bad news later.

There was a sour feeling in his eyes, but Yun Fenghuang was indifferent, and the Jiang family could only pretend to be indifferent, continued to have a cold face, and said, "And I heard that Your Majesty has been here with you almost all these days, so it can be seen that even if he doesn't like you much, he still likes you." It's not surprising, my daughter is so good, it's strange that men in the world don't like you, as long as you don't ...... Just don't take yourself so seriously! ”
