Chapter 220: Envy
The number of people who split their heads and covered their faces fell Xie Yi, Yun Fenghuang's anger did not subside, and his cold gaze swept towards Xie Kuo: "You have played with your two cousins in the palm of your hand, and this palace can not care about you, after all, this is their stupidity, even if they are not called by you, they will have to be deceived by others in the future!" It's just that you know that the palace has always been a little partial to Meng'er, but you still pounce Meng'er to hang the beam, so you don't worry that this news will alarm the palace, and even, disturb the emperor in the belly of the palace?! ”
Hearing this, Xie Yi's face turned pale, his lips moved, what he wanted to say, thinking of his aunt's anger a moment ago, he didn't dare.
"Auntie has always been determined, how can she be disturbed by such news?" Xie Kuo opened her mouth slightly, her eyes rolled, as if she was thinking quickly, and after a moment, she pursed her somewhat dry lips and said in a low voice, "Auntie's child will naturally be as tough as her aunt, and she will be fine!" ”
Yun Fenghuan stared at her, his eyes were like knives, and after a while, he turned to Xie Yi: "You go out first!" ”
"Auntie......" Xie Yi looked at her and then at Xie Kuo, and finally couldn't defeat the coldness in Yun Fenghuang's eyes, and he bent down and retreated very uneasily.
When there were only two aunts and nephews left in the hall, Yun Fenghuang sneered and said, "In your heart, this palace doesn't care about you at all?" ”
"Auntie said with a smile, if you don't care, there are so many children of the Xie family, why did my aunt specially choose us to enter the palace to Chenghuan your knees?" Xie Kuo couldn't bear what she was thinking at the moment, and said cautiously, "Kuo'er said, Kuo'er is forever grateful to you!" ”
Yun Fenghuang asked with interest: "Then why are you sure that the palace will not be disturbed by the news of Meng'er's hanging beam?" ”
"Because Kuo'er believes in her aunt's control of the Huanhua Palace." Xie Kuo flattered him euphemistically, "Unless my aunt acquiesces, no one can hurt a few Kuo'er in the Huanhua Palace!" Either that's the way it is today, Kuoer has a few self-directed and self-acting. So even if the palace people rush to report the news, presumably the aunt will quickly react to the truth of the matter, where will she be frightened? ”
"You're wrong." Yun Fenghuang said coldly, "This palace is a ...... today I'm really frightened! After all, how could Bengong think that the well-behaved, sensible and obedient nieces in the eyes of Bengong would come to such a hand without saying hello? ”
Xie Kuo was silent for a while when he heard this, and decided to tell the truth: "Because if you tell your aunt in advance, then Kuo'er must give the credit to the two sisters Meng'er and Yi'er." In this way, even if my aunt knows everything and knows what is going on, she will not break it. ”
Yun Fenghuang said: "You just said that you won't hurt Meng'er?" ”
"Kuo'er didn't dare to murder his siblings, and he had never had such a thought!" Xie Kuo hurriedly said, "It's just that, auntie, people always have selfish intentions. Meng'er and her two sisters are aunts' nieces and nephews, and they are more loved and trusted by their aunts, and Kuo'er can understand and don't feel wronged! After all, my aunt's nieces and nephews are not only two sisters, but my aunt's cousin nieces and nephews, and there is more than one Kuo'er! My aunt still allows Kuo'er to be in front of my aunt, and with this alone, Kuo'er will never forget her aunt's grace! Ko'er just wanted to...... I just want to try to share my aunt's worries...... Then ......"
After all, he is a half-grown child who has not yet reached the end of his life, although Xie Kuo has been thinking more carefully and calming down, but he was looked at coldly by the concubine, and he lost his confidence when he spoke, revealing timidity.
"You want to prove your intelligence and ability to this palace, so that you can get a different view of you?" Yun Fenghuan's tone was playful, "It's just that you have such a little means, what can you do?" ”
Xie Kuo didn't argue with her at this time that Chunjia knew that the Huanhua Palace had been infiltrated by people and the importance of the concubine's birth might not be safe, so he only said respectfully: "Yes, Kuo'er is so little tricky now, it is naturally difficult to enter the eyes of my aunt." But Kuo'er is still young, and he can continue to study. Auntie, please forgive Kuo'er for saying bluntly, there are no particularly outstanding talents in the family of uncles and brothers now. Who among my aunt's sisters can help her? In addition to the four aunts, the great Xie family seems to have a lot of people, but in fact, the talents are withering! Kuo'er is not talented, I am willing to listen to my aunt's teachings, thinking that my aunt will use it! ”
"......" Yun Fenghuang didn't scold her this time, but lowered his head and thought.
It is true that the Xie family has many heirs, but there are talents, and the talents here are not ordinary talents, but it means that there are few people who have the kind of talents that can make the Xie family's vast lintel.
Yun Fenghuang's parents and grandparents are all township-level talents.
I can't cope with the things that come to the temple at all.
As for her generation, she and Xie Wuzheng are not in contention, and the level is not comparable to other brothers and sisters.
As for the younger generation, there are many nephews and nieces, but there are no particularly outstanding talents.
Even though he has not always felt very good about Xie Kuo, and even has some distrust, what this niece said at this time is really right.
The clouds need help.
It's not that Chunjia changed her mind and was willing to make her heir the prince, otherwise, she would have come to an end now.
Of course, the important ministers of the previous dynasty had to be encircled, and they did need some really capable people with the city government to assist them.
In a situation like now, she is about to give birth, wouldn't it be a lot more reassuring if she had a credible person like herself by her side? Instead of preparing to step on Concubine Wen Hui before she was born?
"And what do you want?" The concubine pondered for a moment and asked slowly, "Don't say anything like just wanting to repay this palace, although this palace has raised you for a few years, it has always favored Meng'er and Yi'er." Even if you really don't care, how much gratitude can you have to this palace? Besides, your biological parents and brothers are still there. When it comes to getting along, you should also consider them first! ”
Xie Kuo opened her mouth, the hand hidden in her sleeve clenched slightly, she pressed her pounding heart, and said in a deep voice: "Kuo'er...... I want to be like my aunt! ”
Yun Fenghuan glanced at her and said, "What do you mean?" Serving Your Majesty too? ”
"Of course not!!" Xie Kuo was stunned, quickly denied it, and said with a red face, "Kuo'er is saying that Kuo'er wants to be like her aunt, relying on her own ability to stand in the world, and she can also help her aunt and her family, instead of relying on her aunt and family for everything, and live in ignorance!" ”
"This is a bit of the bearing of the young days of this palace." Yun Fenghuang leaned back, looked at her, and said thoughtfully, "It is said that Meng'er is like this palace, but in fact, she is like a shape at most." Look at it this way, you are the one who really resembles the one when he was a child...... But you know what? This road is not easy to walk. ”
Xie Kuo calmed down and said, "Auntie, Kuo'er knows!" But Ko'er still wants to try! ”
Yun Fenghuang was silent, she was thinking, is this niece really high-spirited, doesn't want to be a pure family marriage tool, hopes to get the opportunity and qualification to become a chess player, or is it ...... Playing tricks and using this means to get yourself an excellent husband?
Because normally, Yun Fenghuang chooses a husband for his niece, and Xie Meng and Xie Yi must be the most taken care of.
If there is anything good, it must be close to these two first, as for Xie Kuo...... That had to be the last.
"Why?" Yun Fenghuang raised his eyes to look at Xie Kuo and asked, "You are a good nephew who is well-behaved and sensible in this palace, even if this palace is partial to Meng'er, it will not be said that it is deliberately harsh to you." Why do you have to let go of Yangguan Road and not leave, and you have to find sin? You should understand now that if it weren't for the accident, this palace would have fallen in love with Qi Jiulu early in the morning and even had a group of children; Instead of coming into this palace to fight, the future is unknown so far! ”
Xie Kuo was silent for a while, and said in a low voice, "Aunt may not believe it...... But, Kuo'er really doesn't want to live like her mother's life. ”
Before Yun Fenghuang could speak, she was already a little excited and said, "The background is more than the upper than the lower, and marrying a husband who is carefully selected by the family is the right one, and then ...... also used to be in love with each other, but in the end, he watched him carry people home one by one and raise people outside...... In the past, the relatives who doted on themselves kept saying that as long as they still respected the main room, they could live this life after all. It is said that if you stay up, you will get used to it, and when he dies, his own flesh and blood will be relieved...... But...... At that time, people were also old. ”
"Since I was a child, my mother has often told Kuo'er and her brothers about her past with her father."
At that time, Kuo'er was ignorant, and when she came to her aunt by chance, she was worried about pleasing her aunt, so that her mother had face in front of her father. Those concubines, don't dare to come nonsense! ”
But as the years passed, Kuo'er looked at her aunt and thought back to her mother...... I envy my aunt very much. ”
Yun Fenghuang was a little ridiculous, and said: "First, although your father is a little messy, your mother and your father are the right people. Even if your mother is jealous, your father can't actually let your concubine bully your mother. The elders of the Xie clan would not tolerate such a thing! So when your mother says that, most likely she hopes to inspire you to be obedient and sensible; Second, do you envy Hongu? However, why didn't this palace look at His Majesty's three palaces and six courtyards, helpless? Even his so-called favor, the palace, has reached its peak now, and there is no further chance. Moreover, how many of the favorite concubines of the past generations have a good end? ”
"You said you envy Hongu ......"
"What do you envy?"
"If you say that you envy the honor and wealth of the concubine, but there is still the queen above, and the queen mother, the queen mother...... Endless envy. ”
"Then it's not good to be a noble lady?"
"You don't have to walk on thin ice like Hongu!"
Xie Kuo lowered his eyes slightly, and said in a low voice: "This is different. My aunt can have today, and she has won it by herself. And my mother has been listening to the arrangements of the family...... Kuo'er is still young, so she may not understand it now. But Kuo'er knew that he couldn't pretend to be well-behaved. Even if this road is not easy to walk, even if it may not be able to die well in the future, Kuo'er still wants to try it, instead of listening to what her family tells her to do and do everything like her mother, and she has never tried it in her life, and she wants to live her life. ”
Yun Fenghuang stared at her for a moment, and did not answer this question directly, but said: "You pinched Your Majesty and let Meng'er pretend to be murdered when He was there, it will indeed make His Majesty pay attention to the Huanhua Palace, and then pity the palace...... But did you think of it? Now that the palace is about to give birth, His Majesty will definitely personally investigate the truth of this matter. With just such a little means, can you hide it from Your Majesty? ”
"......" Xie Kuo bit his lip, looked at her timidly, and whispered, "But, isn't there an aunt here?" The whole of the Huanhua Palace is in the hands of my aunt! Even if Your Majesty asks in person, my aunt doesn't want Your Majesty to know, so how can Your Majesty know? ”
"You have faith in this palace!" Yun Fenghuang snorted and said, "What kind of sin has this palace done?" When your mother-in-law was about to give birth, who was not holding and protecting, and it was the turn of the palace, not to mention being held and protected, and I had to give you these unconscious aftermaths! Is it really what I owe you in my previous life? ”
Xie Kuo observed her words and felt that she was not really angry, so he hurriedly smiled and said, "If it weren't for my aunt, no matter how much Kuo'er thought, where would she dare to make a move?" I have to learn from my mother, and live honestly and tastelessly for a lifetime. It's all because of her aunt that Kuo'er feels that this day is alive. ”
"Let's go down." Yun Fenghuang was noncommittal, and said lightly, "This palace is lacking, and next, don't do more, otherwise, this palace doesn't have that much energy, clean up the mess for you, understand?" ”
Xie Kuo hurriedly blessed: "Yes!" ”
Bowing down to the door, he couldn't help but smile again, and said quietly and quickly, "Thank you Auntie, Auntie is the best!" ”
