() Qin Niang naturally could see that Song Ru was not the kind of idle princess who didn't listen to anything outside the window, and she heard about it in Yuehualou before and bumped into the fifth prince, so she knew that this princess was involved in the seizure of the heir.

Also, as the daughter of the current queen, it would be false to say that she didn't want her brother to take the throne.

Song Huai is ruthless and has a lot of means, if he inherits the throne in the future, these brothers and sisters will definitely not end well, especially her and the third prince.

After all, the two of them are the children of the current queen, and they are the ones who can most threaten his position.

The first queen has been gone for many years, and the power of the maternal family has been much weaker, but the current queen is different, her maternal family is strong, and she still has a prince under her knees, no matter how the third prince ignores the government and does not involve the court situation, I am afraid that Song Huai will not allow him to live.

"The fourth princess came to tell me this today, does His Royal Highness the Third Prince know?" Qin Niang put down the teacup and asked softly.

Song Ru smiled: "My third emperor brother has always had no quarrel with the world, he doesn't know, but if he doesn't know, it doesn't mean that he doesn't know, if the crown prince ascends the throne in the future, he and I will not have a way to live." ”

Therefore, their brother and sister pretended to be stupid and behaved for so many years to survive to this day.

However, Song Huai can't tolerate them growing up anymore, no matter whether they threaten him or not, he will not let them go again.

"The Fourth Duke wants me to stand in line?" Qin Niang took a bite of the pastry, "However, you also know that my Yang family has been pure ministers for generations, only loyal to the monarch, and does not stand in line, if I promise you, I will inevitably affect our Yang family in the future." ”

"Sister Qin, do you think that you can keep the Yang family without standing in line?" Song Ru said in one sentence, "With Song Huai's style of acting, if you don't want to stand on his side, he will attack you sooner or later, otherwise why do you think the eldest imperial sister would marry the prince of Zhennan, and after getting married, she can't stay in the capital, and she will go to the south with the prince?" Obviously, the king and princess of Zhennan are in the capital. ”

Qin Niang looked at her in surprise: "The eldest princess's marriage is also the prince's handiwork?" ”

She hadn't thought about that.

"Or else? Do you think that she is an eldest princess, and there are so many talented and beautiful women in this Beijing, who can't be recruited as a concubine, why do you have to marry the prince of Zhennan? And after getting married, I have to go to the south with the son to guard the border pass, this one is accidentally in a different place, then the eldest emperor's life is over, and any pair of parents will not be willing to marry their daughter to such a person. Song Ru said lightly.

Indeed, all parents in the world want their children to be happy, who is willing to marry their daughters far away, and moreover, they still marry a military general.

The prince of Zhennan sounds noble, but who doesn't know that there are no eyes on the battlefield, no matter how noble he is, there is no guarantee that he will win a hundred battles, never be injured, or never be martyred.

And Donglin is not like those barbarian countries in the northern region of Miaojiang, the husband can still remarry after death, and even marry his husband's brother, in Donglin, the husband dies, especially if he sacrifices his life for the country, the wife can only be widowed.

"Speaking of which, this is also a scandalous affair of the royal family, I shouldn't have told you, but in order to let you see the true face of Song Huai, I can't take care of it much, it was Song Huai who used the means to let the prince of Zhennan collide with my eldest sister at the banquet, my father in order to save the royal face, so he quickly married the eldest royal sister, and, in order to see out of sight, less than a month after they got married, he ordered the prince to return to the side

Guan, for the sake of reassuring the heart of the emperor, the king of Zhennan and the princess asked themselves to stay in Beijing. ”

Song Ru held the teacup in both hands, lowered her eyes and looked at the hot air rising from the birds in the tea, and the dense breath seemed to hazy her face, so that Qin Niang couldn't really see her expression, and she didn't know what she was thinking.

However, she felt a trace of sadness in her tone.

That's the sorrow of being a royal child.

Although she didn't specifically say how the prince of Zhennan collided with the eldest princess, she has seen a lot of those harem methods on the stage, and she can probably imagine it.

"Now that I'm done, I think it'll be my turn soon." When Song Ru said this, she raised her face suddenly and looked at Qin Niang, "I don't want to be like the eldest sister, sitting and waiting for my fate, I just want to control my fate in my own hands." ”

Qin Niang thought that she could understand such thoughts.

Moreover, what she said is not wrong, the prince will indeed not let go of the Yang family.

He is now using the Yang family and Gu Chen to blackmail her, but after a long time, how long can Song Huai tolerate her?

"However, after all, your brothers and sisters are the same mother, if you haven't discussed it with the three princes, and you have the courage to interfere in the competition of the princes, I'm afraid it's not okay?" Qin Niang thought, if the third prince really has no ambition and doesn't want to be the emperor at all, then the fourth princess is a girl, even if she pulls the prince off the horse, what can she do?

As a woman, it is impossible for her to do this throne either.

"Sister Qin also said, after all, we are the same mother, once I intervene, the imperial brother just doesn't want to fight, he has to fight, after all, many times, people need to be forced." Song Ru said, quietly looking at Qin Niang and asking, "Sister Qin, are you really willing to be coerced and controlled by others like this?" As long as Song Huai still has the favor of his father one day, he will be able to hold all of you in his hands one day. ”

In the final analysis, he is the king, and the rest are ministers, and the king wants the ministers to die, and the ministers have to die.

But who is willing to die?

"The last time the matter of the imperial study was regarded as a meeting gift from me to Sister Qin, if Sister Qin is willing to help me, I will definitely do my best to protect the Yang family, the Gu family, and everyone you care about." Song Ru held Qin Niang's hand, "If Sister Qin still hesitates, it doesn't matter, I can wait until Sister Qin sees my sincerity." ”

After speaking, she didn't stay long, got up and brushed her sleeves: "We've disappeared long enough, I'm afraid that staying any longer will arouse the suspicion of others." ”

Among those official ladies, there are also many princes' eyeliners, and if they disappear for too long, they will inevitably arouse suspicion.

After all, now that their brother and sister are the key targets of Song Huai's surveillance, if they are really found out by him to have any abnormalities, I am afraid that it will be even more difficult to act in the future.

Qin Niang got up, looked at Song Ru's back and called, "Fourth princess." ”

Song Ru looked back at her.

"It's okay for the Fourth Prince's Lord to stand in line with me, but you also have to let me see that the Third Prince has the ability to replace the Crown Prince, and can do better than the Prince, isn't it? After all, the Yang family is loyal to the monarch and is also loyal to the dynasty in the east, if the prince can't have a successor who is sage and virtuous after he gets off the horse, then I help you, it is a harm to the country, even if Qin Niang is a woman, she also knows the righteousness. ”

Qin Niang looked at her quietly and expressed her position.

She hated Song Huai Yes, she also felt that there was something wrong with the crown prince, and maybe he was not suitable for the successor emperor

position, but she is also unwilling to support an incompetent new monarch to ascend to the throne, what is the difference between this and self-destruction of the Great Wall?

An incapable monarch will arouse the covetousness of her neighbors in all directions, and if she destroys the country, then how can she get better personally?

Although she Yang Qin is a woman, she also knows the truth that only when there is a country can there be a family.

"Sister Qin, don't worry, my imperial brother will not let you down." Song Ru said, and went out briskly.

In order to avoid the attention of others, they did not leave together, but let Song Ru return to the garden first, and she stayed in her yard for a while before leaving.

After Qin Niang left her yard, Qiu Xue came over and whispered in Qin Niang's ear: "Miss, I heard that Gu Gongzi has left first, I don't know what to do, but I am in a hurry." ”

Qin Niang thought, he probably really wanted to enter the court as an official, and now that the husband and wife were in an awkward position, it was indeed not suitable for him to stay here for too long.

The bride had already entered the door, and after a commotion, the Lu family opened the table.

After three rounds of wine, five flavors of food.

I don't know who shouted: "Oh, how can I do it, why don't you go to the backyard and stop someone!" ”

The women and nobles of the group looked in the direction of the sound one by one, and saw a woman who looked like a noble lady pinching a handkerchief, and walked to Lu's side with an anxious look, and she didn't know what to say, but she saw that Lu's face also changed.

Lu couldn't leave, so he asked Qin Niang to take a look, and told her to bring a few more of her own people.

As soon as Qin Niang heard this, she knew that something was wrong, and she didn't have time to ask in detail, so she led the woman who screamed before to Yang Hong's courtyard together.

Yang Hong was also eating wine with the male guests in the front yard at this time, in addition to the bride Mu Zhinian in his courtyard, there were a group of maids and women who were responsible for serving, and along the way, the lady simply told the matter.

This noble lady is someone else, it is Mrs. Wen's wife Jin, the Wen family not only brought Wen Jingshu today, but also brought the nephew of Jin's mother's family over, it is said that the nephew drank two more glasses, and mistakenly broke into the inner courtyard where the bride was.

Of course, she did act like she was very anxious, and she had been accompanying Qin Niang along the way: "Miss Yang, I'm really sorry, we thought that my mother's nephew has good ability, and the old man and I wanted to promote him, so we brought him to Beijing to train, but I didn't think that he would drink two more cups and break into such a catastrophe, if today's incident spreads, I will really be to blame." ”

Qin Niang glanced at her, although she acted very similarly, but the pride and cheerfulness that flashed in her eyes were still keenly captured by Qin Niang.

In her previous life, Wen Jingshu married into the Yang family, that is to say, she actually liked Yang Hong a little bit in her heart, but she was not willing to be the wife of a mere five-grade official, and she was even more impatient to wait for his day, so she kept going from day to night.

In this life, because of her interference, Wen Jingshu failed to marry into the Yang family, but she also knew that Wen Jingshu was like this, even if she was unwilling, but if the person she liked married someone else, she would naturally not look at it.

Therefore, what kind of virtue is the nephew of this old lady Wen's mother's family, she just knows it with her toes.

"Since Mrs. Wen said so, if my sister-in-law loses in a while, you will die."
