Chapter 116: Unfilial piety
Nangong Ling pondered and pondered, this poem was scolding her. However, it is not wrong to say that this poem is written about needles.
Nangong Ling was angry and annoyed and wanted to scold, but she was a royal princess, and her upbringing made her unable to say anything too ugly. If she wants her to write a scolding poem without dirty words like Ye Xiaoyan, she can't write it.
At this time, Jiang Manrong said with a smile: "Princess Xuan is really talented. Tomorrow, we will hold a 'talented women's meeting' in our house, and we invite Princess Xuan to come. ”
Ye Xiaoyan knew that no matter whether it was the "Talent Poetry Club" or the "Talent Girls Club", as members of the royal family, even if they did not participate in the competition, they would have to attend the event, so they did not twist, and said generously: "Okay, King Xuan and I will definitely arrive tomorrow." ”
The eldest princess, Zhao Yayun, has been sitting quietly on the side. Now she is more than two months pregnant, and it is when the fetus is still unstable, so she is very careful. Originally, it was not suitable for her to go out at this time, but the "Cai Poetry Club" was held by the eldest prince, and she, as the eldest princess, had to show up with the eldest prince.
Jiang Manrong said to Zhao Yayun: "Sister-in-law, please enjoy the light with you tomorrow." ”
Zhao Yayun said apologetically: "Second brother and sister, you also know my current body, I still don't go." ”
Jiang Manrong didn't need to ask and knew that Zhao Yayun would not come, but out of politeness, she still had to send out an invitation. So he said: "Yes, yes, it is important for the eldest sister-in-law to raise the fetus, so when the eldest sister-in-law sits firmly, we will find time to get together." ”
Zhao Yayun nodded with a smile, and put her hands in front of her lower abdomen in a protective posture.
Nangong You looked at the belly of the eldest imperial sister-in-law, and she didn't look like she was pregnant at all. looked at Ye Xiaoyan's belly again, he had to touch Ye Xiaoyan's belly every day, to see if she was pregnant, he worked so hard every day, but he couldn't touch anything.
At this time, the fourth prince, Nangong Chen, said: "Brother Emperor, my painting is done." ”
Everyone looked at his painting and saw that it was a peony plant. Nangong Chen's poetry, calligraphy and painting are not very strong, but he can only draw peonies, and he can still get his hands on them.
Concubine Ye likes peony flowers, and she grows many peonies in her palace. When Nangong Chen first learned to paint when he was a child, he often traced peonies in his mother's palace, painting and drawing, and he has practiced it for so many years.
When Nangong Ling saw the peony, she suddenly thought of Ye Guifei and remembered what she had heard about the Prime Minister's Mansion recently.
She showed a look of disdain on her face, and said to Ye Xiaoyan: "Princess Xuan, I heard that your mother-in-law, because you entered Dali Temple, was beaten with twenty boards, and Prime Minister Ye Cheng was also affected by this and was punished for thinking at home. Why don't you hurry back to Ye Mansion to have a look, do your filial piety, but show off your cleverness here. That's how you were a child? ”
Ye Xiaoyan looked at Nangong Ling and didn't speak.
Nangong Ling glanced back at her proudly and said, "What, there's nothing to say?" ”
Ye Xiaoyan asked in a calm tone, "What do you want me to say?" ”
Nangong Ling said: "Being a child, but letting his mother-in-law be punished and his father being implicated, is really unfilial!" ”
Ye Xiaoyan wanted to scold her a few words, but after thinking about it, forget it. Her brother and sister-in-law are here, and neither of them has ever said a word of help or reprimand. At first glance, she is here to bite. This kind of battle of tongues, whether you lose or win, is meaningless, but it seems that you are sharp-tongued.
At this time, Nangong You opened his mouth and said: "The Ye Mansion Wang family, despise the royal family, and it is light to play twenty boards, Prime Minister Ye Cheng's wife is not strict, his father asked him to go home and think about it, but the second princess is here to fight for the Ye family, haven't you forgotten what your identity is?" ”
Nangong Ling shook her head and said, "When did I fight for the Ye family, I mean that Princess Xuan is not filial." ”
Nangong You sneered and said, "Filial piety and respect for the royal family, do you think that is more important?" ”
Nangong Ling was speechless. She is a member of the royal family herself, and it is of course more important for her to respect the royal family. But she was unwilling to be scolded back like this, and said with a stalk around her neck: "In short, it is wrong to be unfilial." ”
Nangong Youdao: "Then like you, you have no respect for your elders and disrespect your brother and sister-in-law, is it right?" ”
The eldest prince and the eldest princess both looked at her, and they wanted to talk a while ago, but they didn't open their mouths because of their feelings.
At this time, the painting of the second prince was also painted, he put down his pen, walked over, and said to Nangong Ling: "Second imperial sister, you don't know about the matter of Ye Mansion. If you talk about it, you will accuse Princess Xuan at will, this is your fault. Don't hurry up and apologize to Princess Xuan. ”
Nangong Xu knew the ins and outs of the Ye Mansion, and the disposition of the Ye Mansion was the intention of his father. The second emperor sister only knows one and doesn't know the other, but now she is misinterpreted by the third emperor brother as fighting for the Ye Mansion, this is not dissatisfied with her father's disposition. Nangong Xu can't let Nangong Ling say it anymore, if this words become more and more serious, then it won't be a quarrel between women, and it will cause trouble. Just like the matter of Ye Mansion, the beginning was that the Wang family saw that the third emperor brother recovered, and it was the second lady who regretted that he was unwilling to marry the past. If she wants to stuff Ye Wanting into the Xuanwang Mansion as a side concubine, it may be a little possible. wanted to ask the princess who had already been on the royal jade butterfly to invite herself to the court, even if Ye Xiaoyan agreed, her father would not agree. This Wang family is really whimsical, what is she being a royal family, she is the wife of a minister, and she is just majestic in the courtyard of her own house, and she also wants to change the wife of the prince, which is really unbelievable.
Nangong Ling was not convinced, and said: "Princess Xuan speculated, and the poem stolen from nowhere was pretended to be made by herself. You have been deceived by her, and I have seen through her tricks, and instead of accusing her, you have come to accuse me. He cried.
Nangong Ling is sincerely sure that Ye Xiaoyan's poems were copied. She didn't read much herself, so she couldn't tell where she copied it. The eldest brother and eldest sister read a lot, but they didn't know it. There is also the second imperial sister-in-law, I don't know if she didn't see it, or if she saw it and didn't say it. In short, Nangong Ling felt wronged.
Ye Xiaoyan was a little surprised to see Nangong Ling crying. I didn't expect people like her to cry. So he said: "Since the second princess insists that my poem was copied, then hang my poem out and let the talented people outside take a look, so that they can find out where the poem was copied from." ”
Nangong Ling's eyes lit up, there were so many talented people from all over the world outside, Ye Xiaoyan actually took the initiative to hang out her poems and let everyone find out the source. She didn't believe it, there were so many people outside, there would always be one or two who had read the poem somewhere. So he said, "Okay! Just as you say. Don't regret being recognized. ”
Ye Xiaoyan smiled and said, "This poem was originally written by me, what do I have to worry about." It's you, the second princess. When the time comes, it turns out that I wrote this poem, what should you do? ”
Nangong Ling said indifferently: "I will apologize to you when the time comes." ”。
Ye Xiaoyan shook her head and said, "I don't need you to apologize. I want you to compensate me 100,000 taels of silver. ”
