Lan Yi was anxious, "You answer!" Wanyu, if you do this, I will write to my aunt, do you know that you have taken a wrong step in this matter, and you have made a wrong step? It's really to the point where you can't recover, and no one can save you. ”

When Wanyu heard that she was going to tell her mother, she pulled Lan Yi's sleeve with a sad face and shook her head.

Lan finally let go of her, lowered her voice, and said comfortingly: "The matter between you and the third prince is now only known to the three of us, and there is still room for everything to turn around." You can see it outside the palace, how many times have the three princes been scolded by the saint for the affairs of the five princes? If you marry, the Holy One will bring you to look at it unpleasantly. ”

"I ......"

"If the Pei family and the Fang family are respected, they can still support you. But the Fang family is not in the capital, what kind of life will you live after you get married? ”

Wan Yin helped Lan Yi sweep the snow off her body and persuaded bitterly, "Lan Yi is right, we came here to participate in the audition, mainly so that we can go home in the future and choose a good family to marry in the neighborhood." Even if you marry the most favored prince of the saint, it is a distant marriage, not to mention the same three princes, in addition to marrying far away, you will also provoke the saint's displeasure. You know better than me, they all call the three princes 'plague gods', do you want to marry him, do you want to hurt A-Niang's heart? ”

Wanyu bit her lip, her eyes were full of tears, and she said after a while: "Actually, I don't have much contact with him, before in the paddock, I saw that he had no one to care about, and I felt a little pity, so I said a few words, he is a person who does not fight or rob, warm as jade, I have some ...... in my heart Some like. ”

Speaking of this, she was eager to distinguish again, "But you also know that there are so many pairs of eyes in the paddock watching, and I am with Sister A more, there will be nothing out of bounds." Later, the fifth prince fell from his horse, and he was scolded by the other princes, and I saw that he was too lonely, and he was really pitiful, so I gave him a sachet embroidered by myself, and prayed that he could survive this time. ”

Lan Yi was dumbfounded, all the things she had to teach and receive privately came out, and her cousin's courage was bigger than she imagined. I only heard Wanyu continue to say: "Later, at the palace banquet, when you were talking to the concubine, the princes entered the palace, and I met him again. Although he was much haggard because of the emperor's scolding and punishment, he still smiled when he saw me, and I was moved at that time. ”

Lan Yi felt that she was really stupid, that day she patronized in front of the concubine Niangniang to show her unruliness, and she didn't notice what was happening under her nose at all, in her hazy memory, there were indeed a few princes who came over at that time, but were the third princes among them?

"Have you made a private decision for life? Did he say he would accept you as a concubine? Lan Yi asked.

Wanyu blushed and said softly: "I can't say anything about my private life, and I don't have those promises." It's just that on his waist that day, there was the sachet I gave him. ”

Lan Yi's brow locked.

The cousin seems to have sincerely admired Shangwei Changjue, if she persuades her too much, maybe it will arouse her heart, and she will enter the Three Princes' Mansion, which will be bad.

After being silent for a while, Wanyin Six Gods pushed her to speak, and then she said lightly: "Right now, the fifth prince has just died, just for the sake of brotherhood, and the third prince and the fourth prince will not accept concubines so quickly." You can think again. Maybe at the Chinese New Year's Eve palace banquet in more than a month, the third prince will not bring that sachet, and you can put it down. ”

Hearing the last sentence, Wanyu's face turned a little pale, and there was unwillingness, but there was also the intention of retreating - in the future, the Three Princes' Mansion must be a place where the concubine Niangniang focused on suppression, and after marrying, it looked like a dead end.

The three sisters slept unsteadily this night, and in the Changfu Palace in the forbidden city, the mournful crying was intermittent, and the two of them did not stop for most of the day.

"My son......"

Ying Guifei Ruan was dressed in a plain brocade jacket, wiping her tears beside the current saint, on her well-maintained beautiful face, without powder at the moment, she looked a few years younger than usual, so she was even more gentle and weak.

"Changjun is a child born by the concubine desperately, and it was not easy to raise it to such a big age, if you say no, how can the concubine accept it?"

Xingjia Emperor Wei Yongcang was born handsome since he was a child, even if he is now in his forties, there is still a sense of dignified in his body, he saw the person on the tip of his heart crying for almost a whole day, his eyes were swollen into a pair of peaches, and there was no dislike at all, just distress.

"Rong Yan, after Changjun was born, I put him in the palm of my hand, for so many years, he got everything he wanted, maybe this blessing was too strong, it pressed him, it was all my fault. If you continue to cry for him like this, it will only make him more uneasy. ”

The comforting words that he had racked his brains to come up with fell into the ears of Concubine Ying, like thorns, "Is the emperor excusing the three princes with this?" The concubines and the emperor's children, how can they not stand this blessing? The emperor loves him a little, has he become a thorn in the side of others? ”

"Look at what you said, how many times have I punished Chang Jue for Chang Jun's business? I'm saying, when Chang Jun, the child, is alive, everything is good, what you want, the child has no regrets, you don't have to be so sad, Chang Yuan wants to accept a side concubine, Chang Ze is also going to marry a wife, there are so many things in front of your eyes, you still have to cheer up. ”

Speaking of the other two children, Concubine Ying smiled sadly again, and shed tears in her eyes, "If it weren't for the emperor, for the face of our Dashun harem, the palace banquet after Changjun fell from the horse, the concubines wouldn't be able to hold on." Fortunately, the concubine has three sons, otherwise I really want to go with Changjun. Speaking of this, her words changed abruptly, and her voice was fierce, "Your Majesty, Wei Changjue killed my son, you should let him fight with his life!" ”

Wei Yongcang still had reason in the end, and reassured: "Changjue is the concubine in the end, or the only child of the queen, if you let him fight with his life, you also want the queen's life." What's more, the frightened horses were not something he could control, and I didn't send someone to the paddock to investigate repeatedly, but the results all said that the beast didn't look like there was a problem. I have been ashamed of the queen's mother and son for so many years, and I can't just count Changjun's fate on Changjue's head. As for the beast, I have already killed it. ”

Concubine Ying has been favored for so many years, all because she has a degree in everything, knowing that the emperor said so, and refuting it would only be inconsiderate, she whimpered twice, wiped her tears and said: "In this case, the emperor will think of a way to give the concubine an explanation, at least not let the third prince beat the idea of the other two children of the concubine." ”

Wei Yongcang thought to himself what idea Wei Changjue's useless appearance could be, and only said: "Changjue himself has no future, and suppressing him again will only damage his face." ”

Concubine Ying lowered her head, "But he's a son-in-law!" In all dynasties, some people say that they want to establish a concubine, and naturally the concubines do not want to interfere in the government affairs, but the concubines just want to say that if there is really a day when they are established, the concubines and children will really die and have no place to be buried. ”

Wei Yongcang snorted, "This is nonsense, you are his mother-in-law, he doesn't dare to treat you like this." What's more, Chang Jue does not have the ability to inherit me, and I will not make him the crown prince. ”

"Who knows what will happen in the future? The queen is the queen after all, and all the ministers know that she is noble and virtuous. The concubine is from a humble background, and it is already God's mercy to be able to accompany the emperor, if one day you are really your wife and son-in-law...... The concubines also had no complaints. Ying Guifei lowered her eyes, and her emaciated shoulder blades trembled slightly.

Wei Yongcang held her hand, and the pity in his eyes almost overflowed, "If you are really uneasy in your heart, after a while, at the Chinese New Year's Eve Palace banquet, Shu will show his attitude in front of all the ministers." Okay, don't think about the rest, it's easy to raise some meat, and in order to grow up, I lost weight again. ”

The emperor was willing to make up his mind to break the future of the prince for a few words for himself, Concubine Ying was actually satisfied, she no longer mentioned Wei Changjue, and said considerate words by Wei Yongcang's side for a while, so she pushed herself to be not in good health and let the emperor rest elsewhere.

At the moment, the two of them are sad people, they have been in one place for a long time, but it is not good, Concubine Ying Guifei has handled this relationship just right, and people in Changfu Palace are coming and going, and they are all busy for Wei Changjun's funeral, Wei Yongcang only felt sorry for her to stay here and not have a good rest, and comforted a few words, before she reluctantly left.

He didn't know that he hadn't had a cup of tea before, and Concubine Ying had already picked herself up, and all kinds of supper were prepared and presented from the kitchen. Wei Changjun's death certainly distressed her, but the future of Wei Changyuan and Wei Changze's two sons is the top priority on her mind.

She had to support herself and make a world for her son.

A close palace person brought up the tea, Ying Guifei took it and drank it, and said quietly: "Since Changjun has already gone, the palace can't keep thinking about him." Changjun is a good boy, and when he is there, he will please the palace, and now that he is not by the side of the palace, he must want to do something for the palace. ”

She put down the teacup and covered her chest, "It is said that the son of this palace is only a step away from that chair, but before it really arrives, this palace can't rest assured." is still the same sentence, the queen is the queen after all, she doesn't have to do anything, and in the future, someone will call her 'the queen mother', if the jade seal is given to other princes after all, I am afraid that we Changyuan Changze has been favored by our father, and unite with that slut to suppress us, it will be bad. ”

The palace people knew that Concubine Ying was the character of taking one step at a time and seeing ten steps, although they all sneered at the queen's mother and son in their hearts, and always felt that their master was too cautious, but he still echoed in his mouth, "If you have a mother to help the little masters keep an eye on it, it will be fine." ”

Concubine Ying raised her eyes to look at the snowflakes rolling outside, and said softly: "I hope that on the night of Chinese New Year's Eve, her son's future was broken, and she couldn't stand this stimulation...... Lost his life. ”

This night the snow fell very much, from time to time you can hear the sound of heavy snow crushing the dead branches, the next day the whole capital is wrapped in silver, but the people in the capital, are not afraid of the cold, early can see the pedestrians on the street, and the bustling bazaar, soon sounded one after another shouting sound, steamed buns steamed dumplings in the cage drawer so lifted, the steaming fog makes the people around feel warm. All kinds of horse-drawn carriages pulling goods also leisurely pass through the streets and alleys, starting a new day of livelihood.

The three sisters in the Fenghe Courtyard of Pei Mansion didn't sleep well, they tossed and turned all night, and when it was dawn, they got up one after another.

Because he had previously made an appointment to go to the Golden Jade Fang in the west of the city to pick out a few pieces of jewelry for the Chinese New Year's Eve Palace Banquet, after breakfast, Lan Yi asked Pei Fu's Xiaoxiao to set up the car quickly, and called his cousin and cousin to set off together.

The sisters have a very tacit understanding, and no one mentioned what happened last night, and they all know that Wanyu is uncomfortable in her heart, and she only uses some external things to draw her attention.

And this gold and jade fang, is the favorite place for women in Beijing, their jewelry style is novel, the materials are of the highest quality, although the selling price is much higher than other places, but it is better to have a special room for female dependents, not only do you not have to worry about meeting foreign men, but also drink the new tea of the year.

The daughter of an ordinary fifth-grade official like Lan Yi can buy three or four pieces a year, and she can wear them on the street during the Lantern Festival, which is enough.

When Wanyu first came to the capital, she said that she wanted to come over to take a look, but the rules in the palace that had been bored at home and invited by Pei Fu were dragged out until today.

Pearls, jade, gold, silver and pearls are all common things in the gold and jade workshop, and it is rare that all the objects have their own exquisiteness.

Lan Yi said in the carriage: "The advantage of buying things here is that it will not be the same as others, and sometimes the ladies in the palace are tired of wearing the things given by the emperor, and they will secretly ask someone to bring a few gold and jade shops in." ”

For a while, the little guy outside said "It's here", Wanyu got off the car one by one, and as soon as she stood still, she said "ah" softly, turned her back, and said to the two sisters: "You see, that woman wears clothes very differently from us." ”

Lan Yi quietly stretched her eyes and swept over, a woman who was born like a peach and plum in the other side was walking in with a little girl, she was not very old, but she walked with a graceful demeanor, which was no longer comparable to Lan Yi's few people, a dress with bright colors, although the neckline was wrapped in white fox velvet, but the white skin was faintly visible, obviously this small scheming place was completely different from what the ladies were pursuing.

She's deliberately showing her beauty.

Lan Yi took Wanyu's hand and whispered, "You are staring at others, it seems very rude." ”

Wan Yin mosquito snorted and asked, "Is that the person in there?" Those girls who can sing and dance? ”

The word "Qinglou", Wan Yin couldn't say it, but Lan Yi was very straightforward, and while following the people from Jinyufang inside, she whispered: "Yes, they were born in Qinglou, they have silver in their hands, and they will also come here to buy things, I have met them a few times when I came before." In fact, they are all girls from us, and there is no difference in choosing jewelry. ”

Seeing that Wan Yin's face turned pale and seemed to be about to retreat, Lan Yi smiled again: "Don't worry, cousin, the inside is for the official lady, and we can't touch them." ”

Wan Yin breathed a sigh of relief.
