Chapter 53: Duplicity

The Cunningbergs are now out of court.

Their family is also a noble family to trace back to their ancestors, and Taizu has rewarded the iron coupon Danshu.

Today's Cunningbo is the most idle and wealthy person, who resigned early, was not at home for many months as an adult, and took Mrs. Bo to the mountains and rivers.

As for Du Sanlang Du Zhiyi mentioned in Song Huaiyong's mouth, he was originally Kang Ningbo's son-in-law, and he should inherit the dignity of the title.

Only when he was young, he was fond of mountains and rivers, and as he grew older, he was obsessed with the way of management, and now he is almost thirty people, and he has industrial shops all over the place, but he refuses to enter the court as an official.

Fortunately, the Conningbo Mansion is still somewhat decent in the imperial court, and it is because Kangningbo folded it six years ago and asked for the title of the son of his eldest son.

This matter was in a uproar at the time, and it also gave Emperor Zhaoning a real headache for a while.

Zhao Ying never thought that her cousin still had some personal relations with Du Zhiyi, and she could even ask him to help.

"I just heard Xue Xianting occasionally mention two sentences, saying that this Du Sanlang is the most uninhibited person, Su Ri doesn't look at anyone's face, can my cousin even invite him?"

Zhao Ying looked sideways, and worry flashed faintly in her eyes: "What's more, how can my cousin talk to people about this?" ”

Song Huaiyong only smiled and pushed the fish-shaped dish in front of her in the direction of her arms: "When I was studying at Bai Zedong Academy in my early years, I had a life-saving kindness to him, but after returning to Beijing, he didn't like to deal with officialdom the most, so he didn't move around. ”

He understated it, obviously not intending to dwell on where the life-saving kindness came from.

Seeing this, Zhao Ying didn't ask, and thought that since he said this, he was completely sure, and he didn't let Du Zhiyi know the inside story, and he could ask him to explore the bottom of the Bai family.

She was a little relieved, and then she breathed a sigh of relief: "It's okay this way, he is the concubine of the Bofu, and he is good at business, and he is not a member of the court, and it is indeed much more convenient than us to deal with the Bai family." But ......"

Counting the days, in order to shut them up, Emperor Zhaoning will also let Zhao Che move out of Weiyang Palace as soon as possible in order to shut them up.

Sun Jieyu's position is going to move, and she has a son for nothing, Liu Shuyi will definitely not be able to sit still.

If the Bai family is really behind Chen Shide's support-

A bright smile bloomed on Zhao Ying's face: "I'm not in a hurry in the next day or two, this matter will be decided like this for the time being, but when will I ask Du Sanlangjun to come forward, and I will tell my cousin again?" ”

There was cunning in her eyes, Song Huaiyong didn't know what other ghost she had in mind, but she just relied on hers, and didn't mention or ask anything else.

·

When he returned to the Yanwang Mansion half a day later, Zhao Ying learned from Zhao Chengyan that Emperor Zhaoning really made a decree to promote the position of the Sun clan.

At that time, Zhao Ying was secretly surprised: "Why does even the imperial uncle know?" ”

Zhao Chengyan lifted his eyelids and glanced at her: "She is not from a high background, but your father insists on raising her to the position of a lady, and now even the Liu family has crossed over, so naturally he wants to alarm the clan." ”

It's like when Emperor Zhaoning insisted on going his own way after his mother went, and he had to posthumously crown his mother as the queen.

The former dynasty, the harem, but whenever there is something to stir, the first to be alarmed is always the clan relatives.

Zhao Ying originally thought that even if Emperor Zhaoning wanted Sun Jieyu to raise Zhao Che, at most he would not be able to raise her to the position of Xiuhua.

She now only has a daughter under her knees, and her family is far inferior to Liu Shuyi, even if she is favored, and with that face that looks like a mother's concubine, Emperor Zhaoning will always wait for her to give birth to a son before he can lift her up a little more.

But I never thought about it—

Zhao Ying frowned: "Did the imperial uncle just come out of the palace?" ”

Zhao Chengyan snorted, pinched the hand that was holding the eyebrow bone, the bones were distinct, and the fingers were slender: "The Sun family has been cold for so many years, and suddenly he has to lift it like this again." ”

His tone was not good, and he added some indifference and sarcasm to his usual carelessness.

Zhao Ying thought of her mother for no reason, and always felt that Zhao Chengyan was for her mother's sake.

The corners of her mouth twitched, and when the words came to her mouth, she really didn't know how to ask, so she could only be silent for a long time.

Zhao Chengyan saw that she was silent for a long time, his hands moved, and he raised his eyes to look at her: "Why don't you speak?" ”

Zhao Ying stood there sullenly: "My father mentioned to me before that I wanted Sun Niangniang to raise Che'er, but I told my father that Sun Niangniang's background is not high, and her status is not high, I am afraid that Che'er has something in her heart, and my father probably wants to promote Sun Niangniang for this reason." ”

She said, took a deep breath, and finally looked at him: "Does Uncle Huang think that my father wants to promote Sun Niangniang to the position of a lady, it is too much?" ”

There was a moment of relaxation between Zhao Chengyan's eyebrows: "That's not it, if it's to find a new adoptive mother for Zhao Che - the harem is your father's harem, and it's his business who he wants to promote." ”

"But Sun Niangniang's background in a small family is above Liu Niangniang, and the Liu family is only afraid of dissatisfaction."

She sighed, but she didn't have any temptation, but she was genuine, and sat down next to her dejectedly: "Don't talk about the Liu family, Kong Niangniang, she served her father and the emperor from the hidden mansion, and gave birth to the eldest brother, and now she is just a concubine."

What did the court say a few years ago, Concubine Shu gave birth to the emperor's eldest son for meritorious reasons, and asked his father to take the emperor's heir as the priority, but the father still refused to raise Kong Niangniang to a noble position.

Now Sun Niangniang is really crowned Shuyuan...... Uncle Huang thinks, should I go into the palace to persuade my father? ”

The Sun family can accept favors and raise Zhao Che, but in fact, those women in the harem will not take her seriously.

She has no relatives to rely on, so who really treats her as a person?

But the tree is very popular.

She really crossed the fourth level and was promoted to the position of Shuyuan, and then raised Zhao Che, that is another matter.

Looking at Emperor Zhaoning's posture, it is impossible to say that he will promote her mother's brother, just like her mother did back then-

This is not what Zhao Ying wants to see at the moment.

Zhao Chengyan stared at her for a long time, and naturally was silent for a long time.

Those two sharp eyes fell on her, Zhao Yingneng really felt the exploration, pursed her lips, looked back again, and looked into Zhao Chengyan's bottomless eyes, and her heart sank slightly: "Why does Uncle Huang look at me like this?" ”

"Do you think that your father and emperor value the Sun family too much, and have a lot of momentum to compare with your mother and concubine, or is it for something else?"

Zhao Ying never thought of deceiving and fooling Zhao Chengyan, and asked him to ask such a question, but he was very calm, and he admitted it generously: "Sun Niangniang is indeed the new mother I am looking for for Che'er, but in this world, no one can compare with my mother." ”

She raised her arrogant chin: "Whether it is the previous dynasty or the harem, I never thought of hiding it from the imperial uncle. ”

The expression on her face when she said this, if she was in a trance and did not examine it carefully, made people feel full of trust and firmness, but in fact, the coldness of the girl's eyes was shocking.

She's duplicitous.

The lips are the most touching trust, but the heart is a barrenness.
