Chapter 466: Provocation

For this son, who is most like himself, his feelings are complicated.

Like him, his spirit can be continued.

Like him, the violent methods will continue.

When the old emperor is old, he will always inadvertently think of the bloody and violent methods when he was young, not regretting, but simply recalling.

However, the more I thought about it, the more I worried.

A son who looks and has a temper like his own, naturally inherits his violent side in his blood, who knows when, it will be used on him.

Now the third child is not moving, but the time is not ripe, he has not completely excluded the third child from the position of the prince, and the power in the hands of the third child is not perfect.

If he favored the third child before, it was because the third child was most like him, now he is jealous of the third child, also because the third child is most like him.

At this time and that time, the person is still the same person, and the cause is still the same inducement, but the result is different.

Cao Guifei's death naturally shocked the court.

No one would have thought that the once indispensable favorite concubine would end up like this!

Although something happened some time ago, everyone didn't expect Cao Guifei to use such drastic means!

But when everyone saw the sluggish Duanmu Qing in the mourning hall, their hearts were clear again.

Cao Guifei is for the Third Highness.

Everyone couldn't help but sigh.

In the entire dynasty, I am afraid that the only one who dares to calculate the emperor like this is Cao Guifei.

Who told the emperor to be uncommon to Cao Guifei?

Although there is no movement on the emperor's side now, the minds of everyone who are good at speculating on the emperor's mind are active.

The people who had wavered before, or were ready to be grass on the wall, silently returned to their original places and watched the distribution of power among the three princes.

The old god is there on the old emperor's side, and there is no superfluous movement.

In the eyes of everyone, the old emperor was in the prime of life, and according to his temper and means, no one dared to mention the matter of the prince in the court.

It can be said that during this time, the court of the dynasty experienced a period of dark days, but fortunately, the weather gradually cleared up, and the eldest prince who had been ill for a long time was finally able to go to court.

It's not a matter of concern to everyone.

For the dispensable existence in the court, the eldest prince has always been the forgotten one.

Of the four sons of the old emperor, only the eldest son, who bears the title of "Great Prince", has not been delegated any affairs.

is the fourth prince with the lowest status of the mother concubine, and now he is gradually coming into everyone's sight, especially when the second prince and the third prince are fighting, the fourth prince has made a profit and made a lot of money.

But the eldest prince still goes to the court every day, like an invisible person in the court, and when he is in the next court, he rides back to the house.

Everything seems to be back on track.

In the blink of an eye, it was time for the Dingguo Marquis Mansion to prepare for the autumn banquet.

This was the most beautiful time for the Feng family, but since last year, this autumn banquet has become a thorn in her heart, especially when Gu Jinzhen and Qiao Lixi took back the villa, and now, there is no place to hold the autumn banquet.

The Feng family was unwilling, but there was nothing to be done, so they simply stayed at home, wanting to wait until winter.

It's a pity that those who are not afraid of big things ask about the autumn banquet one after another, and the Feng family is so angry that they stomp their feet in the house!

But the post was written very subtly and decently, first in an ordinary way, and then said very politely that she was looking forward to Feng's autumn banquet this year, and was already waiting for her post.

What can Feng say?

Anxious and angry, Feng fell ill.

Now, it's Aunt Ruan's turn and Chang Yulian to be sick.

Although the Feng family really didn't make things difficult for Aunt Ruan, the Marquis of Dingguo felt uncomfortable!

Aunt Ruan is now the person he dotes on the tip of his heart, and she should be served, how can she serve others?

Especially when I saw Aunt Ruan return to the courtyard "tired" every night, Dingguohou was so distressed!

Finally, on the third day, the unbearable Dingguo Hou kicked open the door of the Feng family.

The Feng family was anxious about the autumn banquet, and they were already in a bad mood, and they were not treated like this by the Marquis of Dingguo, and the anger in their hearts was rising slowly.

"What's wrong with Master Hou today, he is so angry!" As soon as he spoke, Feng's tone was not good.

Dingguo Hou walked straight to the soft couch and glanced at the things on the table.

"I heard you're sick."

"Thank you Lord Hou for your concern."

She has been lying in bed for three days, and Dingguo Hou only "heard" about it today, which is really heartfelt.

"What did the doctor say?" The Marquis of Dingguo barely suppressed his anger.

"It's not a big deal, it's just that I've been overanxious and overworked lately."

"In this case, then you have a good rest, don't you still have Ruan Niang and the second daughter-in-law?"

"What does Master Hou mean?" Feng raised his head coldly.

If it was usual, the Marquis of Dingguo should nervously inquire about her situation and then make the most appropriate arrangements, instead of being eager to let her hand over the power in her hands, as he is now.

The second daughter-in-law is reasonable.

After all, she also shared part of the rights to the second daughter-in-law.

But what kind of thing is Aunt Ruan?

A lowly aunt who still wants to be in charge of the backyard of the Dingguo Marquis's Mansion?

Who gave her face?

Hou Ye?

"I'm also worried about your body," Dingguo Hou said with a fluttering look in his eyes, "The Hou Mansion is full of troubles, and I feel distressed when you look at your hard work all these years." There was no one to help before, but now the second daughter-in-law has entered the door, and she is also the concubine of Shangshufu, helping you a little, and she also has the ability. Although Ruan Niang was born not good, she learns things quickly and is careful, the most important thing is that her deed of sale is in your hands, she won't, and she doesn't dare to toss anything, let them help you a little, and you will be easier. ”

"Thank you Lord Hou for your understanding," Feng said with a sharp voice, "On the second daughter-in-law's side, the concubine will be arranged, but Aunt Ruan...... Master Hou, it's not that the concubine doesn't believe Ruan Niang, but what does the Hou Mansion say is also a noble in the circle, look at other people's mansions, who is the one who lets the aunt manage the backyard? The concubine is not afraid of other people's jokes, but is only worried that others will say that our Hou Mansion has no rules. ”

Dingguohou cares most about face, and he cares more about his evaluation in the mouths of outsiders.

Therefore, the Feng family deliberately said this, not to see the attitude of the marquis, but to tell the truth.

But he didn't want to, Dingguohou frowned, "Who said no, isn't the Zhongyong Houfu just the aunt in charge of the backyard?" ”

I thought that the heart that had already been pulled out of the cold would no longer fluctuate, but when I heard the words of the Marquis of Dingguo, the Feng family still couldn't stop being cold.

It was a frustration that was raging and had nowhere to vent.

"Hou Ye is afraid that he has forgotten, now the loyal and brave Hou Mansion is the Zhong Yong Hou Shi Zi in charge, although the Shi Zi rarely returns to the house, but the people in the house are the Shi Zi's people, Zhong Yong Hou has already moved to the suburbs of Zhuangzi to cultivate his self-cultivation, let the Shi Zi inherit the title of request, the emperor also agreed, just waiting for the next few days to make an order. That little Zhang is just the aunt of the prince, this is still listening, in fact, it is just the sister-in-law of the mother, and it seems to be related to the death of Mrs. Yuan Zhongyong. Although Zhongyong Hou Shizi did not say it explicitly, everyone had this kind of speculation in their hearts. After the loyal and brave prince took charge of the loyal and brave mansion, how could he let the mother-killing enemy manage the backyard and dictate his family affairs? And now the loyal and brave waiting for the prince has not married, and no one in the backyard is not good, so the aunt of the loyal and brave waiting is temporarily in charge of the backyard, and the little Zhang family has gone to Zhuangzi to live for a long time. Master Hou, do you think that the concubine is no longer suitable to be in charge of the feed? ”

"What are you talking about!" Because of his weak heart, the Marquis of Dingguo roared out directly.

At the end, I realized that my tone was wrong, and after a pause, I adjusted the speed of my speech and spoke slowly, "I'm worried that you're overworked, which is not conducive to the recovery of your body, what are you thinking nonsense?" ”

"It's the concubine who misunderstood the Hou Ye," Feng's attitude was excellent, "The concubine knows that the Hou Ye has good intentions, but the concubine can't let the Hou Ye be criticized by outsiders for her own reasons." ”

If it is perfect, the Marquis of Dingguo will not even have a chance to argue.

Looking at the Feng family steadily, Dingguo Hou suddenly said: "Since this is the case, then the affairs of the backyard can be arranged by you and the second daughter-in-law." The most important thing now is the autumn feast. In the court, several of my colleagues have asked several times, you should arrange it as soon as possible, and you must not let people see the joke. ”

As soon as he said this, his head was big, and the Feng family replied stubbornly: "Master Hou, please let me go, the concubine is thinking of a way." ”

"What can you do? In previous years, it was in the villa, but this year it is still in the villa. Although the villa is Shen Yuan's marriage, it is also the property of our Hou Mansion, why can't we use it to hold an autumn banquet? ”

"Master Hou, the concubine is worried about Brother Zhen'er's ......"

"He's also from the Hou Mansion!" Dingguohou vented his aggrieved anger on Gu Jinzhen, "It's just borrowing his land, and don't want him to worry about it, what's he unhappy about?" The long face of the Hou Mansion is also to give him a long face! Ming'er called Gu Jinzhen back, you can tell him well. ”

Feng sneered.

This kind of thing is going to happen to her?

"Also, I see that there are a lot of maids and wives around you, and our Hou Mansion is not the kind of rigid place, just let them serve you carefully."

Feng understood in seconds, "Master Hou can rest assured, the concubine didn't call Aunt Ruan to serve the sick." ”

It was she who was trying to move forward.

The Marquis of Dingguo nodded absentmindedly.

He didn't care whether Ruan Niang came to serve the Feng family voluntarily or forced, he only looked at the final result.

After sitting for a while, Dingguo Hou left the bedroom.

Feng Shi looked coldly at the empty doorway, the expression on his face was neither happy nor sad.

The eldest grandmother was in the house the whole time, and the conversation between the two masters was listened to word for word.

She glanced at Feng cautiously and frowned.

"Mama, you are becoming more and more careful now, and you don't speak in front of me."

"Madam, the old slave didn't, the old slave just felt unwilling."

"Oh, what are you not willing to give?" Feng raised his eyebrows, his tone still tepid.

"Madam, this is obviously Aunt Ruan's intention! Madame didn't call her to serve at all, she ran over, grabbed the maid's work, no one asked her to stay here, she deliberately waited for Hou Ye to go back to the court, this is obviously for Hou Ye to see, deliberately provoke the relationship between you and Hou Ye! ”

The eldest grandmother said it with righteous indignation, but the Feng family didn't care.
