Chapter Ninety-Five: Hit the nail on the head
Chunjia tidied up her robe before entering the flower hall.
Inside, Concubine Shen frowned slightly, holding the tea bowl in her hand in her hands, and handed it to her lips several times, but she put it down because of anxiety.
Seeing the holy car entering, he hurriedly got up and saluted.
"Mother Shen doesn't have to be polite." Chun Jiaxu helped her and asked her to sit down, and after she sat in the top robe, she asked her Wen Yan what she meant.
Concubine Shen is quite worried, according to the rules, it is not good for the concubine and the heir to meet in private, but as the palace concubine of Xiaozong, she has always lived with Ji Sheng.
With the Empress Dowager Yuan and the Empress Dowager Qu, there is neither intersection nor friendship.
So after Ji Sheng went, she and Concubine Wu had no channel to communicate with the Son of Heaven, and this time they were also forced to be in a hurry, so they rushed to Xuanqing Palace desperately.
After all, this is better than going to the Taichu Palace to find Chunjia's movements, right?
"Your Majesty." Seeing that Chunjia's attitude was quite kind, Concubine Shen calmed down and said in a low voice, "Sui'an's matter ......."
Chunjia sighed in his heart, if you want to say who wants Xiaozong's bone and blood wife to be peaceful the most, he must be one of them.
But at this point, he could only beat his spirit, and Wen Yan said: "Mother, this is all mine." ”
The emperor spent about a stick of incense admitting that he was not, and euphemistically said that he would never treat Sui'an and his wife badly, and even hinted that he would promote Concubine Shen to concubine, in short, he promised a bunch of conditions, and promised that there would never be anything like this...... At the end, he politely asked Concubine Shen, but what other requirements do you have?
"Your Majesty." Concubine Shen didn't find a chance to interject when she wanted to speak a few times before, so she hurriedly said, "Your Majesty knows everything, and our mother and daughter have nothing else to say." It's just that, no matter how you say it, it's unlikely that Sui'an will give birth to a concubine for the horse, this ......"
"I know." Chun Jia had a headache, if the horse was someone else, even if he was from a high family like Yunxi guest Zheng Fengtong, he hinted that the people of the horse would also keep an eye on the horse and not allow it to mess around, so as to explain to Concubine Shen's mother and daughter.
But Xie Wuchang......
This cousin is not a fuel-efficient lamp.
It's okay for her to press her brother, but it's just to make amends, but she won't be polite.
It's just that Concubine Shen came to ask in person, and Chunjia couldn't ignore it, so she said, "The concubine is the person I personally chose for Sui'an. Even if such a thing happened, it was not Sui'an's fault after all, in the final analysis, Sui'an was greatly wronged this time. If the horse is neglected because of this, there is no need for the mother to say that the first one of them will not spare him! If the mother concubine is not at ease, I will summon him to the palace and interrogate him personally. ”
"Your Majesty, it's not like that." Concubine Shen hurriedly said, "Wu Zheng is the Ruyi Langjun personally chosen by His Majesty for Sui'an, how can he be such a person?" In fact, I came to look for Your Majesty at this time, but because someone from the Eldest Princess's Mansion came and said something, I don't know what to do. I was afraid that the concubine would misunderstand, so I came to His Majesty to tell him regardless of the dignity. ”
Chunjia's expression moved, and when she looked at her as if she had heard some bad news, she raised her eyebrows and said, "Oh? Please ask your mother to show me? ”
Concubine Shen squeezed the veil tightly and said, "Your Majesty, just now His Royal Highness Yun'an and the concubine went to the Sui'an Eldest Princess's Mansion to visit Sui'an...... In public, he swore to Sui'an that in this life, there will only be one Sui'an, and there will be no one else! Moreover, it was not the move of God that made Sui'an pregnant, otherwise he would rather have no heirs for life than have any thoughts! ”
"......" Chunjia narrowed his eyes, quickly thinking about Xie Wuzheng's intentions for this move, and whether this was Xie Wuzheng's own meaning, or the Xie family, or the meaning of the concubine?
I remember that two days ago, the concubine's biological mother Jiang continued to enter and leave the palace, is it ......?
Looking at the eager expression of Concubine Shen not far away, he didn't have time to think about it, and said gently, "Really?" I don't know about it yet, but the concubine should be happy when the colt is so happy. ”
"Your Majesty said yes." Concubine Shen snorted, "It's just...... It's just a talent for the horses, and it's Xie Junyan, who is so young, if he has no heirs because of Sui'an, this ...... What does this look like? Even if he is in front of the concubine, he is not easy to explain. Do you think that's the truth? Therefore, I would like to ask Your Majesty to personally order that the oath be withdrawn. ”
When she said this, she subconsciously grabbed the handkerchief in her hand.
Chun Jia sat on the top and saw this little action clearly, where did he not know, Mrs. Shen was not so much here to ask him to order the concubine to take back the oath, but rather to take the opportunity to test whether this matter could be finalized?
It's no wonder that Concubine Shen came from a humble background, and her mother family is basically the kind that is ignored, and she has served Xiaozong, and the daughter of Princess An is a hope.
Originally, relying on the first emperor Yu Ze, although the horse that Sui'an descended from was not very good, in the end he was still a young talent, and he had a favorite concubine cousin to help, looking at the good future, it was waiting for Sui'an to have children, and the time for a family and Lele. As a result, now Sui'an can't give birth, if Xie Wuzheng is just a child of the Xie family, Concubine Shen thinks to herself that with Sui'an's background, as long as the mother and daughter cry to Chunjia in place, presumably the emperor will not care about sacrificing a concubine, fulfilling his good story of pity for his heir.
But Xie Wuzheng is still Concubine Min's cousin.
On crying, complaining, coquettishness, and swaying the holy will, Concubine Shen's mother and daughter dare not compare with Yun Fenghuang.
So when Concubine Shen got the news, she couldn't wait for it to spread, so she immediately came over, and her idea was that even if she retreated, she would advance.
Take the lead in putting on a posture that you can't let the horse sacrifice like this, so even if Yun Fenghuang favors her brother and doesn't allow this to happen, she and Sui An will have a reasonable name, so as not to offend the favored concubine, and not let people outside talk about their bullying.
There's a little bit of a benefit to that.
If the concubine doesn't object, then Sui'an is equivalent to picking up a single-minded husband for nothing, and it will be even better.
"In the end, the concubine is living with Sui'an, even if the concubine cares about them, it is impossible to interfere too much." Chun Jia's mind turned, and he said gently at the moment, "Don Ma Yuan is not an impulsive person, since he said this, he must have thought twice. Of course, whether it's a horse or a sui'an, they're still young...... Well, I'll summon them into the palace and ask what's going on? ”
Concubine Shen didn't get an answer on the spot, a little disappointed, but thinking about it, this trip was not in vain, at least just now the emperor has roughly revealed the compensation plan, to be honest, of course, these can't fully make up for Sui'an's crimes, but the matter has come to this, and now the middle palace has no way but to support the prince as a concubine, let alone Sui'an?
I can only comfort myself and be able to take a little is a little.
When she left, Yun Fenghuang came in from behind, and when she entered the door, she angrily disagreed: "Your Majesty, Brother Twenty-One, he is dizzy, don't pay attention to him!" ”
Chunjia speculated that the concubine's attitude was pretending to be out to clear up the relationship, or was she really unaware?
He took a sip of tea and persuaded slowly: "The horse and Sui'an have always been in love and harmony, and now that Sui'an has such a big thing, he must be 100,000 uncomfortable in his heart." It's human nature to say something inappropriate on this eye, so why should you mind? ”
Because he didn't know the specific ins and outs, the emperor left room for speech, and didn't say whether he approved or disagreed, but just persuaded the concubine to calm down, and said: "It just so happens that I have some leisure at this time, so I will summon Sui'an and his wife into the palace and make it clear in person." ”
After a pause, he asked people to call Yun An and his wife as well, after all, the couple are human witnesses.
The two eldest princess mansions are not far from the palace gate, and the palace people went to pass on the message, and it didn't take long for them to arrive at the Taichu Palace to wait.
Here Yun Fenghuan was making a fuss and must pass, Chunjia was helpless, so she allowed her to listen outside, and repeatedly told her not to make a sound, so as not to disturb his questioning.
In this way, the Son of Heaven moved to the Taichu Palace and asked about the oath of the four people, Sui An began to cry when he heard it, Yun An helped her to comfort her in a low voice, and stopped talking, Xie Wuzheng looked at Sui An worriedly, and then admitted it, and asked the emperor for permission very calmly.
Zheng Fengqi glanced at him with admiration, and arched his hand to the Danqi and said, "Your Majesty, this thing is true, it's just ...... Because of my sister's affairs, my sister-in-law's husband must have been restless for the past two days, and he looked a lot haggard. ”
In other words, he felt that Xie Wuzheng was sincerely loving Sui'an when he said this now, but it might also be impulsive.
Chun Jia groaned, because of his daily management, he did not pay much attention to a courtier like Xie Wuzheng who had not yet grown up, even if he had the dual identity of the brother and brother-in-law of the concubine.
The impression of Xie Wuzheng is that this person is probably the most outstanding son of the Xie family, and he is much better than the noble son who was carefully educated by a wealthy family.
So at this time, I had some doubts, suspecting that Xie Wuzheng was either himself or listened to someone else's focus on the concubine's pruning, and wanted to brush up on the love saint to invite people's hearts; No, as Zheng Fengtong said, impulsively.
Anyway, the emperor didn't believe that Xie Wuzheng was so affectionate to Sui'an.
It's not that he thinks Xie Wuzheng's character is not good, or that Sui An is not the kind of person who will be pitied by her husband wholeheartedly.
It's because Xie Wuzheng and Sui Antong have only been married for a year, and they haven't seen it before, where do they get so much affection?
Especially this year, the couple came over smoothly and plainly.
If in this way, Xie Wuzheng is willing to pay for Sui'an's heart and lungs, and he doesn't even want an heir, then unless these two people are really that kind of fateful marriage: Xie Wuzheng owed Sui'an in his last life, and he owes a lot, and he deserves to pay it back for the rest of his life.
If the two have been married for ten years, have experienced all kinds of ups and downs together, and have not changed their original intentions, then Chunjia is more willing to believe that Xie Wuzheng is sincere.
Think about it, Concubine Min is such a vivid and eye-catching person, Chunjia consciously likes Yun Fenghuan sincerely, so why should she do it when she doesn't like it? Even disappointed and sad Empress Dowager Yuan, it only started after getting along with Yun Fenghuang for a few days.
What did he say before that?
He himself can tolerate all kinds of willful nonsense of the concubine, but Empress Dowager Yuan must be a person who the concubine treats respectfully!
…… Chunjia felt that Xie Wuzheng's ambition was not as tenacious as his own, but since he was an outstanding young talent, and he was not the kind of prodigal master who was famous for his talent, and he was somewhat hilly in his heart, how could he be so easily captured by Sui'an?
"I see that Xie Fuma is indeed a little haggard and excessive." Chunjia then said to Xie Wuzheng, "I don't want to pursue what you said, but you must not be so impulsive in the future." The news has just reached Neifu, and the concubine is so sad. Originally, the concubine had not been angry for the past two days, but now she listened to the words of the concubine, but she became more and more sad. ”
Hearing that Sui'an's crying stopped slightly, Yun An gently patted her back, raised his head and said, "Brother Huang, Sui'an didn't mean this, and he kept saying that he should not do this." But the horse is angry......"
"Sister Huang, no dispute is not an impulsive word in anger." Yun An's words were interrupted by Xie Wuzheng halfway through, he lowered his head slightly, his posture was respectful, but his eyebrows and eyes were full of firmness, "The words of Wuzheng come from the bottom of my heart." ”
Yun An looked embarrassed and looked at Chunjia.
Chunjia's eyes flashed, and Wen Yan said, "You all go out, and I will say a few words to the horse." ”
So Yun'an and his wife helped Sui'an, who was still sobbing, to retreat to the side hall, and the palace people who were waiting in the palace also left one after another, only the two monarchs and ministers.
"Your Majesty." Xie Wuzheng immediately knelt down in his robe, and said in a deep voice, "Please allow Your Majesty!" ”
"Do you know what you're doing?" Chunjia didn't help or scream, but asked calmly, "Are you taking the future self-clean, dedicated to the eldest princess, and your future heirs in exchange for a smooth progress!" ”
Xie Wuzheng's body shook clearly, he thought quickly in his heart, and after a while, he raised his head and said in a deep voice: "No matter what Your Majesty says, in the heart of the minister, it is true, there is only Her Royal Highness the eldest princess!" ”
"I practiced Zuo on the fifteenth day and got married in the same year." Chunjia's tone was very casual, "There are three palaces and six courtyards, and there are groups of concubines and concubines, and they have different temperaments. So I am also accustomed to seeing the love of Fengyue, what are your thoughts about Sui'an, I know very well in my heart. It's just that Sui'an's mother and daughter are happy, and I don't care if you keep lying to her. Originally, if Sui'an could have biological flesh and blood, even if you were out of trouble in two years, as long as you weren't so confused that you spoiled your concubine and killed your wife, as long as Sui'an didn't come to me, I wouldn't bother to care about those many little things. Everything that will affect you in the future will be inherited by Sui'an's children. That is the blood of the first emperor of filial piety, and I will naturally try my best to treat him well. ”
"But now Sui'an has this fork, whether it is an unrelated child, or you take a concubine in the future, raise and Sui'an, in terms of status, you can't compare with the emperor's nephew who really flows the blood of filial piety."
"I know this myself."
"So you don't do it and just use this method to stand out, yes or no?"
Xie Wuzheng was sweating profusely, but he still insisted: "The minister doesn't dare, the minister has no intention!" ”
Yun Fenghuan, who was eavesdropping on the queen of the palace, suddenly tightened his brows: The Son of Heaven who can break free from the hands of a powerful minister like the Ji family and hold down the regent steadily is not a fuel-efficient lamp, when Chunjia doesn't pretend to be confused, where is it so easy to fool him?
Xie Wuzheng did not hesitate to answer, but ......
The Son of Heaven was different at all, arguing with him about whether his intentions for Sui'an were true or false.
Chunjia smiled and wrote lightly: "Absolutely not? So what if I let you take advantage of this incident to resign and go into hiding, take the eldest princess to the fiefdom, and be a pair of free and easy fairy dependents, so as to avoid the current rumors in the imperial capital? Would you like to? ”
