Chapter 182: Caution
The resentment in Wen's heart had not yet dissipated, and Wen Qingqian slowly walked over and comforted her. also helped her get rid of those long-tongued women, and Wen was a little grateful in his heart.
Inevitably, Wen remembered the years when she accompanied Wen Qingqian, she and her son were also familiar with each other, and they grew up together since childhood, they can be regarded as childhood sweethearts, and the two get along very well, but-
Wen will never forget that on that day, Qu Chensi told him that the two of them were killed together in the hunting ground, and Wen Qingqian left him alone and escaped. Later, although Wen Qingqian also explained, she said that at a critical juncture, she wanted to find someone to go back to save Qu Chensi.
Her explanation was quite reasonable, and Wen couldn't help but look down at the woman who had been comforting her.
The expression on the other party's face is very sincere, and the strength of slapping himself is also very gentle, as if he still treats himself as his own aunt, and there is nothing unusual.
"Auntie, you believe me, I really didn't mean to throw Tatsumi down last time, Tatsumi is my own brother!"
Wen Qingqian explained again, tears fell down, her body was weak, when she lived in the Hou Mansion in the past, Wen Rou did not find less medicinal materials for her to replenish her body, but now she still looks weak and willow helps the wind, in the end, it is the child who was raised by herself.
The pimple in Wen's heart was already a lot smaller, and if she shed a few more tears, Wen's didn't feel anything.
Wen patted the back of Wen Qingqian's hand, "Qingqian, my aunt knows that you are not that kind of person. ”
Wen Qingqian laughed when he heard this.
"My aunt still understands me, and I'm worried day and night these days, I'm afraid that you and Tatsumi won't forgive me, and the quality of sleep at night is much worse."
Wen Shi looked at Wen Qing's shallow eyes carefully, as if he really saw dark circles under his eyes, "You kid, what do you have to toss yourself, my aunt just didn't think about it for a while, I got it, it's still my aunt's." ”
Seeing Wen Shi bow her head and apologize to herself, a touch of pride flashed in Wen Qing's shallow eyes, she knew that Wen was a big fool, and she just flickered around.
It's just that I don't know if Qu Chensi has such a good strategy, but with her years of experience, it is estimated that it is almost the same for that stupid boy to cry twice.
It was only at this point that Wen let go of his wariness of Wen Qingqian, and his tone returned to his previous concern and gentleness.
Seeing that the strategy was almost over, Wen Qingqian immediately changed the topic, "Auntie, just now Qingqian looked at that Qu Miaoling really didn't understand etiquette, and she was still showing off her might in front of you." ”
Referring to Qu Miaoling, who she had repeatedly dealt with and ended in fiasco, the resentment in Wen's heart gushed out like a blister.
"Who said it wasn't, but Qu Miaoling has the support of the emperor, Wu Dehou has help, and the old lady is also facing her, even Jiang Jingjing seems to have been bought by her and has been helping her talk."
Wen sighed heavily as he thought about it, "I'm struggling in the Hou Mansion. ”
After finishing speaking, Wen sighed again, and the grievances in it were clearly heard by Wen Qingqian.
"Auntie, don't be afraid to do things, you have to remember that you still have the Prime Minister's Mansion to support you, my father knows your difficulties and will definitely help you."
Hearing Wen Qingqian mention Wen Hongzhi, Wen's face showed a wry smile.
"Your father, he can't wait for me to swallow my anger and coax that Qu Miaoling to be the emperor!"
After finishing speaking, Wen sneered coldly.
"Auntie, how could it be? My father wasn't like that! ”
"How not? Your father has been thinking about how to get promoted and get rich all his life, and he doesn't care about his sister's life or death! ”
Wen flicked his sleeves and was obviously even angrier.
Even Wen Qingqian wanted to go over and hold Wen's arm, but he didn't succeed.
"Okay, auntie, don't be angry first, when I go back, I will definitely persuade my father, he is a man in the end, and he may not understand the pain of his daughter's family."
"Don't explain it to him, I'm nothing in his eyes!"
Wen's eyes were red, in the end, he was the brother who had been in love with his brother and sister for many years, and it was impossible for him to say to himself that Wen was not uncomfortable.
Wen Qingqian naturally saw Wen's grief, and wondered why her father said this, but all she could do at the moment was to appease Wen and let her do things for herself.
Thinking like this, Wen Qingqian's voice became softer, "How can there be an overnight feud between brothers and sisters?" Auntie, don't worry, if this incident is really my father's fault, I will definitely talk about him well when I go back and give you a vent! ”
Wen was a little satisfied, and nodded to Wen Qingqian again and again.
"You tell him that if he doesn't want to help me, I'll never help him again!" Wen shouted angrily.
Wen Qingqian nodded again and again.
"Auntie, the banquet will start soon, let's talk about some business."
"Seeing that Qu Miaoling's heels are getting more and more stable in the Hou Mansion, but my aunt has been robbed of her housekeeping rights, how will you deal with yourself in the Hou Mansion in the future, aunt?"
This is also the deepest pain in Wen's heart all along.
She is the head of the Hou Mansion, and now the housekeeping is still in Qu Miaoling's hands, and Wu Dehou does not let herself get involved.
In addition, now that Yuan Qiongyu has entered the Hou Mansion as a flat wife, there are wolves in front and tigers in the back, Wen feels that her life will be more and more difficult day by day, but what can she do?
If Qu Miaoling gets married in the future, whether Wu Dehou will transfer the housekeeping rights to Yuan Qiongyu is unknown, and she must take back the housekeeping rights before Qu Miaoling gets married.
"Qingqian, what do you suggest?" Wen Shi looked at Wen Qingqian and asked.
"Aunt, Qing Qian still thinks that you should stand still, at least until Qu Miaoling and those people don't move, you don't challenge Hou Ye's bottom line anymore, it's best to let Wu Dehou recall the good memories of you before, so that you can get twice the result with half the effort if you seize the stewardship."
Wen Qingqian's suggestion was very pertinent, and Wen thought about it and felt that it was right.
She gave Wen an idea, and now it's her turn to help her.
"Auntie, look over there!"
Wen Qingqian suddenly pointed not far away, and Wen looked in the direction.
Qu Miaoling was surrounded by several princes, the second prince, the third prince, the sixth prince, and the princess chasing the moon, so lively, plus a few concubines interjected from time to time, it became the place where everyone in the Tai'an Palace frequented the most for a while.
"Qu Miaoling is getting more and more powerful now, and it seems that he is involved with every prince." Wen Qingqian said suddenly.
"This little hoof really deserves to be the daughter of the county lord of Huiling."
At that time, the county lord was named in the capital, and many sons and brothers were determined to marry the county lord, and many people cried uncontrollably on the day the county lord got married, and some people were still sick, lying on the bed and muttering the county lord's maiden name.
The poison of the county lord of Huiling was deeply imprinted in the hearts of all the sons and brothers, and it did not dissipate for a long time.
After the death of the county lord of Huiling, she thought that all this was over, but the appearance of Qu Miaoling made ripples in Wen's heart.
"Qingqian, do you have any way to help your aunt, so that your aunt can suppress the sharpness of Qu Miaoling's little hooves."
It was the end of Wen Qing's shallow and vague smile.
"Auntie, you can ask the right person, Qingqian really has some ideas in his heart."
Wen was interested, "But it doesn't hurt to say. ”
"Auntie, it's like this, if you can help me marry the second prince, I will have a way to make Qu Miaoling disappear."
"Marry Situ Huaibo?" Wen's eyes widened, in disbelief.
"Aunt, this is the best method to use at present, now Situ Huaibo has a very high possibility of becoming the crown prince, marrying him is also an additional guarantee for you, no matter how high her status is Qu Miaoling, she will not dare to be disrespectful to the prince.
Wen only felt sour in his heart, and asked her to help, what could she help?
He couldn't even control his father-in-law, he went out all day to mess with flowers and grass, and married concubines room after room, but she couldn't even say a word about her beak.
In the chest, she was also kicked several times by Wu Dehou, if it weren't for her life, she might not be able to appear here now.
Wen Shi thought that his heart was even more bitter, and his face was even more sad.
"Qingqian, you are embarrassed by your aunt: what can I do? It is better for you to beg me than to beg your father. ”
Hearing Wen's words, Wen Qingqian also knew that she was shirking.
No one wants to take her for a fool: last time, it was the Wen family's efforts that went to the palace to beg the queen, so that Wu Dehou dispelled the idea of pursuing.
She was sure in her heart that the relationship between the Wen family and the queen was not ordinary, and she must have a way.
Wen Qingqian sneered in her heart, and she naturally saw Wen's shirk in her eyes.
What can't be helped? It's just that she doesn't want to help, she still treats her as an aunt, and she gives him ideas with all her heart, she really disappoints herself.
The sneer on Wen Qingqian's face became deeper and deeper, and it looked cold, but Wen didn't notice it.
Wen Qingqian and Wen's side were turbulent, and no one let anyone.
Qu Miaoling was suddenly called away by the people around Rui Guifei.
"His Royal Highness the county lord, the concubine is invited."
Although they are both concubines, the concubines with titles are completely different from the concubines without titles, plus Concubine Rui has been favored continuously over the years, and there is almost a trend of favoring the world, and no one dares not to give Concubine Rui face.
"Miao Ling, since it was Concubine Rui who called you, you should hurry over, and we will continue to talk after a while."
Qu Miaoling bowed slightly to a few maids, and then followed the maid away.
The maid was wearing a simple palace dress, just the hairpin inserted between the buns, which let Qu Miaoling know that the identity of this maid was not simple, and she must be the palace maid with a face next to Concubine Rui.
"This sister, what is the matter with Concubine Rui looking for me?"
The palace maid replied with a toothless smile: "How do you know the mind of the noble concubine, Your Royal Highness the county lord will know when you go over and take a look." ”
After the palace maid finished speaking, she stopped talking and seriously led Qu Miaoling the way.
Rui Guifei's seat is next to the emperor at the front, and not far from Rui Guifei is the seat of the queen's mother.
Seeing Qu Miaoling, Mu Wanshu bowed slightly at him, and Qu Miaoling responded with a smile and listened carefully to Concubine Rui's teachings.
"Miao Ling, you're finally here, let Bengong wait."
"Let the mother wait, is it Miaoling's." Qu Miaoling hurriedly leaned down and saluted.
Concubine Rui hurriedly asked the palace maid to help him up, "It's all a family, why should you be so polite, let others see it, I'm afraid I will think I bullied you again." ”
Others don't know, but Concubine Rui knows that this Qu Miaoling is not simple in the emperor's heart.
She represents the emperor's thoughts about the lord of Huiling.
"Queen Mother, something happened to the Shanggong Bureau, and I want you to go over and preside over it." Mu Wanshu's face changed, and after confessing to the emperor, she left in a hurry.
As the master of the harem, Mu Wanshu has a lot of things to manage every day, and it is also very complicated, and sometimes she doesn't even have time to eat.
Today is Chinese New Year's Eve, and it is difficult to sneak around, but something still happens that needs to be handled by her personally.
"Miao Ling, this glass of wine in front of you was specially brought back from the desert by my son, and it is the best to warm up my daughter's house, you can taste it."
Qu Miaoling picked up the wine glass at a glance, and the wine slid through her mouth and throat, not particularly spicy, compared to ordinary wine.
There was a faint feeling of warmth spreading through the esophagus and slowly sliding into the stomach.
"It's amazing." Qu Miaoling sighed for face.
"That's natural, this is what Liu'er specially brought back to the palace."
The eldest prince and the sixth prince are both the biological sons of Rui Guifei, but it is difficult for the eldest prince to travel south and north due to his weak health, but in Rui Guifei's heart, she also cherishes this son more than complains.
Seeing Concubine Rui lead the conversation to the six princes, Qu Miaoling faintly understood something in her heart.
But Situ Huaiyong is a little kid in her eyes, or Situ Huaiyong's follower, how can she have thoughts about him? However, so many people are fighting their own ideas, and Qu Miaoling doesn't know whether to be happy or complain.
"Miao Ling, seeing that you are about to get married, but you have the idea of marriage, if Mrs. Wen is not willing to help you see others, you can come to this palace, and this palace will definitely choose a good family for you, so that you can live a worry-free life for the rest of your life."
If it is for an ordinary woman, Concubine Rui's promise is already very sincere.
It's a pity that Qu Miaoling is not an ordinary woman, she has her own ideas, and most importantly, she also has her own sweetheart, how can she look down on other men?
It's just that Rui Guifei and the others don't know about this.
