Yuan Qingling went to the Qiankun Hall to greet the Emperor.

The Emperor asked about Mama Xi, and Yuan Qingling said: "During the recuperation, Chu Shoufu visited her, she was much more energetic, and no one dared to say anything outside." ”

"But you're listless, what's the matter?" The Emperor asked.

Yuan Qing Ling only remembered the matter of the Eighth Prince, and said: "I'm fine, Imperial Grandfather, if someone from the queen's side asks why the Eighth Prince has a pair of glasses, you will say that you gave it." ”

Emperor Taishang said coldly: "Needless to say, the queen doesn't dare to ask." ”

Yuan Qing Ling was stunned.

Chang Gonggong explained: "The queen is also from the Chu family. ”

Yuan Qingling sat down and looked at the Emperor Taishang, "Grandfather Huang, Chu Shoufu, do you really trust this person?" ”

"What do you have to say?" The Emperor glanced at her and asked.

Yuan Qingling was a little dazed, "I just think that I have always thought that he was a careerist before, my father waited to slap him, and he was blocked by him, and he also asked my father to ask the fifth child to divorce me, the purpose is to ask the fifth child to marry Chu Mingyang, the first time I saw him, I also felt that he was fierce and vicious." ”

The Emperor raised his hand and ordered someone to close the palace gate.

Chang Gonggong went out and guarded outside.

Only then did the Emperor Taishang say earnestly: "He must have disliked you and your father at first, who is your father, you must know in your heart, how did you, the princess of Chu, come here, you also understand in your heart, he has always been optimistic about the fifth child, how can he be willing to marry the daughter of the waiting mansion?" Especially, you were really bad at that time, and it is not an exaggeration to say that you are degraded and corrupt. ”

Yuan Qingling comforted herself in her heart, talking about the former Yuan Qingling, not her.

"I don't think he's optimistic about the fifth child, it's just that he wanted to marry Chu Mingyang to the fifth child twice, and he obviously didn't uphold justice in the matter of Hui Dinghou." Yuan Qing Ling said.

When Emperor Taishang heard this, he smiled, "What kind of justice is presided?" Does he have to be a good man? Who do you characterize him as? If he is good to Mama Xi, he must be good to each and every one of you? He didn't like you at the beginning, he didn't like your father, it was indispensable to make it difficult for your father, the fifth daughter-in-law, Lone told you, he is not a person who is a heinous crime, but he is definitely not a gentleman, he is the head of the court, and he holds the power of life and death of many people, don't casually characterize him as a good person or a bad person, there are many kinds of people, especially in his position, even relatives can be sacrificed when necessary, not to mention you irrelevant. ”

"I didn't mean that," Yuan Qingling explained, "I just think that in this matter of Hui Dinghou, he is obviously biased, and he tries his best to protect him." ”

"Because Hui Dinghou is capable." Emperor Taishang sighed, "Do you think it's so easy to find a capable person in this Manchu Dynasty?" Hui Dinghou is a pity, bad on this, Chu Da regrets that the imperial court has lost a usable talent, Hui Dinghou is a person he has cultivated for a long time, and it is the time to use it. ”

When it comes to politics, Yuan Qingling really doesn't understand it very well.

However, what Emperor Taishang meant, Yuan Qingling understood.

For the current dynasty's first assistant, a princess who has not contributed anything to the country is wronged, which is really not worth mentioning than losing a person who is really useful to the country.

That's what he thinks.

That's why many times, knowing that a person has a bad record, but still has to be reused.

"You can say that Chu Da is unkind and unjust, but he has done a lot of practical things for the Northern Tang Dynasty, and every person who lives and works in the Northern Tang Dynasty should be grateful to him." The Emperor said again.

Yuan Qingling hesitated for a moment, "Then you just said that he supports the fifth ......."

"The old five are not in the pool, and they will turn into dragons when they encounter wind and clouds, but at present, he still lacks some wind and rain, you should be happy." The Emperor Taishang is meaningful.

Yuan Qingling couldn't be happy.

The so-called wind and clouds are actually tribulations.

Women all over the world want to marry a big hero.

But when he really got married, his wish was very dull, and he only hoped that he would be safe, healthy, and well.

As for whether she can make a contribution, as long as she can get by, and she is not so poor and has to ask for food, she thinks it is not so important.

However, these words, Yuan Qingling was not good to say in front of the Emperor.

Because, as far as she knows, the Emperor Taishang is also optimistic about the fifth child.

Today, among the three giants, they are all pinning their hopes on the top five.

With a push, it can be done.

She suddenly became melancholy, what kind of wind and cloud is the so-called wind and cloud? I used to think that the fifth child was very capable, but after they got better, they always felt that the fifth child was not as wise as before.

Maybe it's because of the personal relationship of the children.

She didn't dare to look at the emperor with a weak heart.

Two days later, Princess Sun came to her for the menu for King Sun's birthday.

Yuan Qing Ling remembered that King Sun had come to the mansion several times before, saying that he was trying the dishes of the imperial kitchen to prepare for his birthday.

She said: "Second sister-in-law, I have a question, isn't the second brother's birthday already over?" A few months ago, I came to try the dishes, just for the birthday. ”

"Do you believe him? He's just gluttonous. Princess Sun said angrily, "For the sake of food, he doesn't want to lose face, what birthday do you want?" ”

Yuan Qing Ling smiled, "That's the case?" ”

Princess Sun lowered her voice, "By the way, do you know that King Qi and Princess Qi are making trouble." ”

Yuan Qingling nodded, "I heard that Concubine Yuan lives in my mansion, and she told me about this." ”

Princess Sun had a thorough expression, "This matter can't be done." ”

"How?" Yuan Qingling asked.

Princess Sun said coldly: "Chu Mingcui is not stupid, she is gone, is it possible to find someone like Lao Qi?" Lao Qi is the emperor's concubine, gentle and elegant, she can't find such a good person with a big lantern, she is willing to give up? My head is a guarantee for her. ”

Yuan Qingling smiled, "Don't be too confident, maybe you can really give it up." ”

"Unless your fifth child says he wants her, she can't leave." Princess Sun is very determined.

Yuan Qingling said embarrassedly: "Why is it related to my family again?" ”

Princess Sun said earnestly: "Don't blame the second sister-in-law for being too careful, it's right to be more careful in everything, especially at this juncture, you must strictly guard against it, it's hard to be afraid of entanglement with women, the fifth child and she grew up as childhood sweethearts, there is a friendship in, the first time you entangle, or you can refuse sternly, but if you entangle a few times, there is always a time to lose, and men sometimes can't believe it." ”

Yuan Qingling was taught, "I know, I'll keep an eye on it." ”

"The fifth child is full of your thoughts, but I don't know what people can do, if you don't want anything with self-esteem, men will be easily moved." Princess Sun sighed deeply, as if she had come over.

Yuan Qingling heard this and asked, "Did the second brother meet some pestering girl?" ”

Princess Sun raised her hand and looked disdainful about him, "He is a person, except for eating, he is not him, he is the third child." ”

"Third brother King Wei?" Yuan Qing Ling was stunned, "What's wrong with him?" ”

King Wei has always had a good reputation, and he and Princess Wei Cui are also husband and wife.

What happened to the two of them?

"Last year, a woman came to the door, saying that thanks to the life-saving grace of King Wei and his wife, she was willing to stay in the palace as a slave and a maid to repay the great kindness of King Wei, and Princess Wei allowed her to stay, but I didn't think that this woman is pregnant now." Princess Sun said.
