Chapter 39: Wang's Scheme
The old lady has already sent someone to find the true king Zhu Xi.
In the main room of Qingsong Courtyard, Song Yi secretly looked at everyone's expressions, and seemed to be able to see some discord.
The old lady has a respectful status, everyone is respectful, and she doesn't need to show herself.
Those sitting on both sides of the column can already see their respective camps.
The large room and the second room sit on the left and right sides of the old lady's head respectively.
The Wang family sat with the third young lady, as well as the graceful girl and the older beauty, behind the mother-in-law, the girl, and more than a dozen people waiting.
There are already a lot of people on the big house, and the Cao family is not far behind, and if you look closely, it seems to be better.
Although the second master did not become an official, he became a businessman and earned a lot over the years, so Cao's and his daughter's food and clothing were also extremely luxurious.
Although Cao was born in a businessman, he has also seen the world. Although the discipline of her husband is strict, she doesn't care that he has more aunts and concubines, and she knows the truth of men acting on the spot.
However, the male masters in the real king's mansion were all disciplined by the old lady very well, and there was no situation of spoiling concubines and killing wives, and they all waited for the children of the eldest wife of the main house to grow up before letting other concubines have children.
Therefore, the palace is full of sons and sisters, and the brothers and sisters are still young, and there is nothing to fight for.
This is different from other princes and generals, and it is also something that the Du family has always been proud of.
As for the real king Zhu Xi, if you want to arrange them in order, you should be the only son of the three rooms in the palace. The entire palace is the boss of the row. But because he was chosen to be the son of the world since he was a child, he didn't mix with others, so it turned out that the second child, Zhu Zimo, was called the eldest prince by everyone in the palace, and the others followed suit.
Wang and Cao are the eldest and second daughters-in-law of the old lady. I have already started a family, and I should set up my own business.
At the beginning, the old prince let the eldest grandson of the third room succeed to the title. Du Shi was unhappy, so he left the eldest son and the second son's family in the palace. The family is wrapped together, and people are prosperous. Chattering.
Later, the eldest lord became an official and had to rely on the power of the palace, so he was naturally reluctant to move out. And the second master's family, seeing that the eldest brother did not move away, also stayed cheekily.
The elders don't mention it, and Zhu Xi, as a junior, is naturally not easy to mention. In addition, as a grandchild, he inherited the title of the old prince, and he felt a little guilty about the eldest uncle and second uncle. If you drive the two families out of the house again, it's not good to spread the word.
In this way, the three rooms in the palace lived together. The old lady is very lively here every day, and the people are buzzing.
Grandsons and granddaughters, every morning and dusk, sons and daughters-in-law often greet An Jingxiao.
Today, Wang's brother-in-law Guan and nephew Queen Shutong came to visit. Wang took her mother and daughter to the old lady to say goodbye and talk about something by the way. I heard the rumors in the house, so I stayed together to listen to the gossip.
Wang Shutong is Wang's niece, the eldest brother of Wang's daughter-in-law, is thirteen, and will be in time for the New Year. She came this time for a different purpose.
Guan personally brought his daughter to the palace to see each other, just to pair his daughter with the real king.
Originally, the marriage of the true king should have been decided by the emperor. The emperor also intended to marry the most favored ten princesses to the true king, but before the ten princesses became adults, they died early, so the marriage of the true king was also delayed.
To make matters worse, it came out of nowhere, the true king is not good, the lonely star, the elders, wives and children. The marriage of the true king is getting worse and worse.
People say that when it comes to children's marriage, parents call the shots.
The real king's biological parents have already traveled to Xianyou, and only the old lady is in charge of the mansion.
But the old lady didn't take this matter to heart at all, and there was no leader.
The true king is twenty years old, and he has not yet taken a wife. Serious young ladies have a lot of admiration, but they can't get past their parents.
Guan came with his daughter this time, and he couldn't stand his daughter's request.
It turned out that Wang Shutong had admired this real king's cousin since he was a child. She is favored at home again, as long as she wants, the family will get it for her.
This marriage is a major event, and the Wang family naturally wants to choose a good one. In addition, the secrets in the real king's mansion, as the in-laws, naturally know a lot. The more I disagreed with this marriage.
But Wang Shutong had a big idea, and he was restless at home, and the Wang family had no choice but to rely on her.
Guan took his daughter Wang Shutong to use the reason of visiting to set up the words of Wang, the girl of her husband's family.
The Wang family did not hide it, and revealed the situation in the house.
But she also has her own ideas and supports Wang Shutong to marry into the palace.
This palace is already a big family, and over the years, they have lived in the palace, and she has also helped the old lady manage the palace, and she has also reaped a lot of benefits from it. Otherwise, how can she get this large amount of money for her family's old and small expenses and outside contacts?
However, the husband also mentioned a few days ago that if he wants to move up again, he has to move out of the palace.
But the Wang family is not happy, although the husband has already paid homage to the official, but the century-old foundation of the palace, how can she give up easily?
While she was meditating, her younger sister-in-law Guan came to the palace.
Listening to her, Wang couldn't help but be overjoyed.
The nephew queen Shutong is a beauty, with beautiful eyebrows, red eyebrows, and lovely. I expect that the real king will like it when he sees it.
If she can promote this marriage, she will also have an extra help in the palace. Even if she really wants to move out in the future, everything in the palace is still under her control.
After a hundred years for the old lady, isn't everything in this palace her Wang's?
Wang's idea is beautiful, and he is happy to see it come true.
Just now she knocked on the side, although the old lady did not agree, nor did she refuse.
Wang wanted to continue his efforts, but Cao came.
also provoked this lawsuit.
Everyone didn't speak, just waiting for the arrival of the real king Zhu Xi.
As soon as the true king returned to the mansion, he was stopped by the little servant of Qingsong Temple.
When I asked, I found out that the old lady was in a hurry.
Zhu Xi didn't say much, and when he returned to the courtyard to change clothes, he had already asked the reason.
Zhu Xi, who was confident, came to Qingsong Temple.
