077 Red mouth and white teeth
There was a man hiding in the corner of the imperial city wall, and he happened to see all this. Until the sedan chair gradually disappeared, looking at the back of Princess Ning leaving, "In the palace, when did a grandmother's daughter-in-law dare to enter the palace so loudly and openly can't get along with the princess?" ”
Milk Mama......
"Princess, didn't Mrs. Na Cen rely on the emperor to drink a few mouthfuls of her mother-in-law's milk... She herself was ordered to worship the Buddha and pray for the blessing of the dynasty...... Only then did she have the courage to be respectful to the masters of the entire palace. ”
Exactly, the sedan chair is sitting Mrs. Cen, her mother-in-law is the emperor's grandmother Shi, the emperor has been grateful for Shi's nurturing since he was a child, and her friendship is deep. Now that Shi is old and can't wait to enter the palace to ask for peace, he will let his daughters and daughters-in-law enter the palace to face the saints, hoping that the emperor will continue to continue the glory of her family in the past.
Her daughter-in-law and daughter-in-law in this Mrs. Cen is very fond of expressing herself, that year the emperor wanted to choose the right lady in the foreign wife to go to the temple to pray for the Buddha, this Mrs. Cen asked someone to spread the voice of the petition into the imperial city, and got the emperor's reward to make an exception to give the three ladies to the royal temple to pray for blessings, and now just came back to the palace to meet the queen.
The people in the imperial city knew all this, and they didn't want to have any disputes with her family, and most of them treated each other politely, and gradually the people of her family became more and more unruly, and some rumors also faintly spread into the ears of the emperor.
Princess Chongfu scoffed, "No matter how much it is the father's grandmother's family, it should also abide by its duty, in the end, it is not even a lowly courtier, but dare to be arrogant in the palace." What kind of thing is the history of the Cen family! A hint of hatred flashed in his eyes, "You want to spread this matter to Princess Defu's mansion, and I want their two mansions to collapse!" ”
"But now that Princess Defu doesn't enter the palace, I'm afraid that this matter will be passed into the princess's mansion, so I can only wait slowly."
Princess Chongfu sneered, "It's okay, this princess can afford it." She wanted to see if the Cen family's historian was defeated quickly, or if she couldn't wait first.
Soon, she caught up with Princess Ning and said first, "This princess hasn't seen the princess for a long time." ”
The fierce voice made Wang Jingshu startled again, and stopped her pace, it turned out to be Princess Chongfu, her heart couldn't help relaxing, and they each bowed to each other, "The concubine has not seen the princess for a long time." ”
Although Princess Chongfu returned to live in the palace, she has always lived in a simple place, and only accompanied the Queen Mother in the Ninghui Palace, and Wang Jingshu only saw the princess a few times when she was invited, and the two had a shallow relationship.
"It's been cold recently, and this princess hasn't come out to walk around for a long time," Princess Chongfu intended to get close, but she still held a little princess shelf, and she couldn't get rid of it for a while, calling herself this princess every sentence, but her tone was not so alienated, "Fourth brother and sister, where is this?"
"Go to Fengyi Hall and say hello to the Queen Mother!" Wang Jingshu confessed honestly, and couldn't help but slander in her heart, where did the princess come from? Did you see that scene just now? She frowned and understood that she was probably going to embarrass King Ning again.
Princess Chongfu seemed to guess what was on her mind, and smiled disapprehantly, "There is no impermeable wall in this palace." ”
Wang Jingshu immediately smiled, this is indeed not bad, the original princess has already seen what happened. Instead, he said: "The princess is more energetic than when she first returned to the palace, and those pearl hairpins and emerald rings are even more beautiful." ”
Women, there is no shortage of words that like to praise, Princess Chongfu is no exception, now she has returned to the palace to live, since she is much better than living in the dark princess's mansion, "I have heard that the girls of the Wang family are exquisite, but now I have heard it with my own ears." The words of the four siblings are really interesting. ”
The corners of Wang Jingshu's mouth were slightly pursed and smiled, which was not very clear. I heard Princess Chongfu mention with a smile, "There are not many people in the sedan chair just now, and if you meet it again in the future, you will be so arrogant, you just take out the princess's style, go up and smoke her with a big mouth, it will be light." ”
Hearing this, Princess Chongfu was the most disgusted, who was Mrs. Cen after all? A lady who can enter the palace in a sedan chair must be the wife of an important minister of the court, but the princess is dissatisfied for a long time. Wang Jingshu was very strange, "Please also tell the princess, who is that, Mrs. Cen?" ”
"It's just a lady who doesn't have a good name, the men in her family are just white," Princess Chongfu was inexplicably full of hatred, a grandmother's daughter-in-law and father took care of it, even if she was so ignorant of the sky, she casually gave a lady grade. And she, the eldest princess, lost a lot of happiness because of blind marriage and dumb marriage. For a moment, even she didn't know whether she hated the Cen family historian who laughed at her behind her back, or hated the emperor who was high, "She is just the daughter-in-law of her father's grandmother, and she was awarded the rank of lady because she went to the royal temple to pray for blessings." ”
Lady, Mrs. Sanpin.
Only the male in the family is an official of the Sanpin court, and his mother and wife can be awarded a lady. It's like Wang Jingshu's mother posthumously gifted Mrs. Yipin, because her father Wang Da is the crown prince. Now a grandmother's daughter-in-law, the male in the family has no official position, so she is named a third-grade lady, which seems to be against the etiquette system, did the official not question it?
"Mrs. Shi, do you know?"
Shi is the grandmother of his father, and his father lost his mother when he was young, so he has the most affection for Shi, and he is nostalgic for giving a first-class lady. shouldn't be so elevated as a historian of the Cen family. Only these Wang Jingshu had no right to ask: "I know, I've seen it." ”
"The Cen family, the Shi family, made a fortune by one woman," Princess Chongfu did not hide her dissatisfaction with the two families at all, bowed her head and whispered: "The building will eventually collapse." ”
Wang Jingshu was speechless for a while, there are some things that the royal princess can say, but the royal daughter-in-law cannot. And the collapse of the building is also expected. Before she could react, she heard her say again: "But how and when it collapses, it depends on the princess's own family." ”
Home? Wang's family!
Wang Jingshu was stunned at first, what does Princess Chongfu mean by this? After thinking about it, she wanted to watch the Cen family's Shijia Mansion collapse, but she wanted the Wang family to help. When she saw the scene just now, she thought that she must be angry, so the Wang family would definitely make a move.
But the Wang family ...... Wang Jingshu thought of her father, who would always remain neutral and loyal to the Son of Heaven, and was afraid that she would not be suppressed because she was arrogant by Mrs. Cen in the palace.
This is a great opportunity to throw an olive branch, and Princess Chongfu doesn't plan to miss it. She wants to try, what role does the Wang family play in the imperial city and in the imperial court? Is it to return to the East Palace or to the King of Shunning...... If she returns to the East Palace, she is afraid that King Ning has little chance of winning, and she needs to find another backer.
The two went to the Fengyi Hall with their own thoughts, and they no longer chatted along the way.
When I arrived at the Fengyi Palace, it was extremely lively, not only Mrs. Cen of Fang Cai, but also Princess Hexian, who returned to the royal family today to report the good news, her face was full of joy. Mrs. Cen on the side was complimenting her, smiling like Maitreya Buddha.
The laughter inside reached the ears of the two people waiting outside the hall, and Princess Chongfu looked puzzled and stunned, what was going on? She didn't hear that this aunt would enter the palace yesterday, and she seemed to be very familiar with Mrs. Cen.
Wang Jingshu smiled and asked Mama Chang Chun to enter the hall, "Mama Lao entered the hall to give a voice." ”
Soon, Empress Jiang passed them in. She was surprised when she first heard that the two of them had come together, but she was also happy to see it.
The two entered the hall and each asked for peace, and even Mrs. Cen reluctantly got up and saluted the two. Looking at Mrs. Cen, who had done enough in front of the queen, Wang Jingshu accepted this gift with a smile and without saying a word. It seems that this Mrs. Cen only dared not hold her up in front of the queen.
The queen gave the seat, "It's so good that you guys came, sit down, and the palace that came and went to greet you was dizzy." She kindly introduced, "Mrs. Cen, that is the daughter-in-law of the palace, who only married into the palace not long ago, Princess Ning Wang." Looking at Wang Jingshu again, she thought that Princess Ning didn't know Mrs. Cen in front of her, "The fourth daughter-in-law, that's Mrs. Cen." ”
Take your seats. Mrs. Cen pretended, "It's you?" ”
"What, Madame knows this niece-in-law? She's the bride of the Imperial City. Princess Hexian took a sip of tea and interjected with a smile, she was in a good mood today and wanted to give the queen a few faces, not counting the five princesses as brides, if you want to say that the Du family is still seriously ill and has not served the number of tea brides, it is natural not to count.
Sure enough, when the queen heard the word 'bride', her face was kind. But I heard Mrs. Cen say, "The princess just hit the sedan chair and hit the palace people, it doesn't matter, but I just came back from the temple today, I'm afraid that the princess doesn't know the rules and disrespects the Bodhisattva, but this is not good after all." ”
Wang Jingshu didn't expect that this Mrs. Cen would reverse black and white in front of the eldest princess, and slander her for disrespecting the Bodhisattva. I was angry for a while, and I wanted to argue with her, but if I really quarreled with this kind of person, it seemed that I couldn't do it, and the most important thing was that I was afraid of offending my mother.
Princess Hexian took a deep look at Mrs. Cen, this Mrs. Cen is a clear complaint, but I don't know who the queen will believe. turned to look at the queen who was sitting upright and couldn't look at it, "The princess is younger, and there are people who don't believe in ghosts and gods and don't know etiquette." Don't worry, Mrs. Cen, the Bodhisattva knows in his heart that he will not blame you for being insincere. ”
This means something, and it is clear that she is biased towards Mrs. Cen, and it seems that she is helping the princess to find a reason for speaking, but in fact, she is telling everyone that the princess does not know the etiquette and offends the Bodhisattva because she is not sincere.
There is no excuse for the sin that you want to add. The eldest princess, Wang Jingshu asked herself if she had offended her, how did she lead her like this, and helped Mrs. Cen with red mouth and white teeth. finally defended herself, "The concubine's maid beat the palace people, because the palace people openly interrupted the concubine's speech, but they didn't collide with the sedan chair, and the concubine didn't know that it was Mrs. Cen who was sitting inside, and she didn't give way." ”
As soon as the words fell, he Xian Changgong took the initiative to raise his red lips and continued, "The lynching of palace people who don't know the rules is much lighter than disrespecting the Bodhisattva's insincerity and punishment." The princess is really smart, and she will really admit it lightly......"
"Eldest Princess, what do you mean by that? The concubine will admit what she has done, and she will not admit what she has not done. ”
Princess Chongfu was the only one who witnessed it with her own eyes, but she didn't speak at this time, she wanted to see how this Princess Ning Wang Jingshu would defend herself.
Princess Hexian took the teacup and mentioned it intentionally or unintentionally, "Oh? So you confessed to lynching the palace people? He looked at the queen again, "Queen Mother, this matter cannot be tolerated, otherwise the people in the imperial city will not really obey you." You can't be lenient just because Princess Ning is your sister-in-law and daughter-in-law, and you must be punished heavily to set an example and show your fairness. ”
Wang Jingshu couldn't figure out why an eldest princess had to get along with her.
Now the queen felt that she really couldn't get off the stage, she could have punished her with a small punishment and a big commandment, and passed it with a light sentence. Now that the eldest princess said this, she was both willing and powerless, "Which maid beside Princess Ning is so bold that she dares to lynch?" ”
The queen asked Nushi to call the palace maid outside, and soon entered the hall tremblingly, knowing in her heart that she might not be able to let go of a board. Kneeling on the ground, without the momentum of the party, "Knock, knock to see the queen's mother-"
"You hit the palace people next to Mrs. Cen?"
Qingyi didn't dare to say it, it was Wang Jingshu who simply took it, knelt in front of Qingyi, and her waist was straight, "Queen Mother, they all say that the palace maid made a mistake, and it was the master's fault." Today's Qingyi is wrong, and it is also the fault of the concubine. Since the eldest princess said that you should be fair, the concubine can't escape punishment. Just ask the queen mother to punish the concubine. ”
"If there is a mistake, it is indeed deserved, only the concubine and the palace maid Qingyi have always been steady, why did she beat the eunuch and lynch her today, and I implore the queen mother to find out the truth and then punish her."
The first sentence saved the palace maid, and the second sentence saved herself, and she won the hearts of the people. This Princess Ning is very good, such a master will definitely have loyal palace people to serve her for her loyalty.
Princess Chongfu appreciates this very much.
In the imperial city, the most important thing is whether the people around you are safe and loyal.
