Volume 1 The Wind and Snow Enter the Purple Terrace Chapter 75 Mother and Son (I)
Ji Shen didn't want to go to the Chengguang Palace to accompany the Jiang family yesterday, but he hadn't summoned Jiang Shunhua in the past two months, and he had the new favorite of Mu Biwei, in the end, he forgot about the Jiang family a little, plus Sun Guifei persuaded the wine in a soft voice on the side, and he couldn't leave if he wanted to go after drinking, so he had to live in the prayer hall, for Sun Guifei, he had a lot of disputes with the Empress Dowager Gao in private, and now although the Empress Dowager Gao did not mention the Sun family, Ji Shen has been alert, and suddenly thought of an excuse, and said with a smile: "What the Queen Mother said is very true, In fact, it is not that the child deliberately asked Jiang to return to the temple alone yesterday, nor did he accompany her to eat, but when she went to the New Year's Hall yesterday, the child had drunk a few more cups because of a greedy cup, and then the doctor diagnosed that Jiang was pregnant, and when he told the taboo, he mentioned that he had to ban alcohol, and the child was full of alcohol at the time, worried that if he returned to the Chengguang Hall with Jiang, he smoked her, so that the emperor sent her to turn back alone, and then he was not strong enough to drink, so he stayed in the New Year's Palace. ”
Although he intended to pick out Sun Guifei, Empress Dowager Gao has always disliked the Sun family, and she also knows something about yesterday's New Year's Prayer Palace, so she will say lukewarmly: "I heard that you went to the New Year's Hall yesterday because of a beauty's birthday?" What a joke! Now it has come out of the first month, but it is still snowing heavily, the former dynasty is worried about spring ploughing, and the mourning family has to move the frugal mind, there are more than 30 people in the emperor's harem who have official positions, and the high-ranking ones do not matter, if they are beauties, talents, and lovers, these scattered numbers must also celebrate their birthdays one by one, hold banquets and drinks, and how much money do they have to work every year? Originally, the emperor accepted them in order to continue the heir, but now only the concubine Jiang is pregnant, these individuals can be said to have no merit, this extravagance and luxury are quick to learn! ”
Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Gao said coldly: "If the mourning family is not mistaken, a beauty in this matter does not have the courage to do so, is it the Sun family who can mention it?" In the end, he was born as a palace slave, he has never seen the world, and he can't tell the difference at all! Emperor, you don't have to speak for her, for your sake, the mourning family will not call her downgrade, but only ask her to deduct her share of the past few months to set an example! ”
Ji Shen frowned, but the Empress Dowager Gao said everything right, not to mention that it was only a matter of deducting a few months, and she said that it was good for her to make up for the Sun family in private, and the Sun family had always been rewarded, and there was no shortage of such a few cases of money, even so, in the end, she argued: "Maozi lives in the palace, and the child has never told her about the previous dynasty, how can I know?" This is also her sincerity, the beauty used to serve her with her heart, Mao Zifang and her decent, the child went back to tell her, next time it will definitely not be like this. ”
Mu Biwei will know that Sun's small character Maozi, the name of the heart is not bad, since the Sun family was sold into the palace because the family was poor and starved to death, the family will definitely not be able to come up with such a name, I am afraid that it was changed after entering the palace, maybe it was changed by Ji Shen himself.
Empress Dowager Gao saw that although Ji Shen defended the Sun family, she did not refute her own disposition, although she was still unhappy, but thinking that he was so infatuated with the Sun family, in the end, she still had to slowly figure it out, and she couldn't hurt her mother and son for a concubine from a lowly palace slave, so she also slowed down her tone and looked at Ji Xi on the side, and said, "You just said that you came here for Dalang's business?" What is it? Why didn't he come by himself, but Erlang was here? ”
Ji Shen glanced at Ji Xi and said with a faint smile: "Please ask the second brother to tell the queen mother about this matter." ”
"In fact, the eldest brother also asked the queen mother for this matter." Ji Xi sighed in his heart, when King Anping went to the Empress Dowager Gao to ask for the concubine to be crowned, he was not present, but he also knew that the Empress Dowager Gao was unhappy about this matter, and reprimanded King Anping a few words, although the Empress Dowager Gao liked herself more, but she was not the kind of person who was eccentric, I am afraid that it would be in vain to mention it today, but he made a promise, and still held the hope of just in case and said, "It is for the only daughter under his knees to ask for the title of county lord......
Before she finished speaking, Empress Dowager Gao really sank her face and said, "It's ridiculous!" Last time, Da Lang went to the mourning family and said that the mourning family had already reprimanded him! Why didn't he give up and coax the two of you to come forward for him? ”
Ji Xi was about to speak, but when he saw Ji Shen's face surprised, he lost his voice and said, "The eldest brother has already mentioned this matter to the queen mother?" Today, the second brother took the officials of the Ministry of Rites to the Xuanshu Hall to mention this matter to the child, and the child has been allowed to become a mother! I wanted to directly issue an order to canonize in the Xuanshu Palace, but Yuansheng reminded the child that since he was canonized by the county lord, it was the queen mother's decree to change the name and be more glorious...... But I don't want the queen mother to not agree? ”
As soon as these words came out, Mu Biwei pursed the corners of her mouth, bowed her head and said nothing, Nie Yuansheng also had nothing to do with herself, but the Empress Dowager Gao laughed angrily, and pointed at Ji Xi and said angrily: "The mourning family obviously rejected Da Lang's matter that day, and Jing Niang was also accompanying the mourning family in the palace at that time, and persuaded the mourning family a few words, could it be that she didn't tell you when she went back?!" But I don't want you to help him fool his brother! ”
Rao is Ji Xi has always been elegant, and he is used to being in front of the Empress Dowager Gao, which will be reprimanded by the Empress Dowager Gao, and she doesn't feel sweaty, and she knelt down with shame and pleaded: "It's the child who is confused, just thinking that the eldest sister-in-law has no daughter, and the eldest brother is such a girl under his knees, and he is not the position of the prince, it doesn't hurt to help the eldest brother, and he also believes in the heart of the mother's love for the son, and he does not intend to calculate the third brother, and begs the mother to forgive!" ”
Ji Shen sighed at this time, shook his head and said: "A county lord, don't say that it is the blood of the eldest brother, that is, the courtier with a foreign surname, what if it is sealed?" It's just that the eldest brother's move was rejected by the queen mother earlier, and the second brother obviously knew, but he also brought people from the Ministry of Rites to the Xuan Room to discuss the canonization of the county lord. ”
Although Empress Dowager Gao was angry that Ji Xi helped her eldest son to deceive herself, she couldn't bear to have a gap between their brothers, and now she heard the meaning of Ji Shen's words as if she meant to blame Ji Xi, but she was afraid that he didn't like to punish Ji Xi in his heart, even if it wasn't too heavy, he always brushed his face, but he refused to continue to reprimand Ji Xi, but instead helped Ji Xi persuade Ji Shen and said: "The emperor should not be too angry, you are brothers-in-law, how can you not know each other's temperament?" Your second brother categorically didn't mean to harm you, but it was only at the request of your eldest brother, this matter was his confusion, and it was also your eldest brother who did an errand! The mourning family will definitely reprimand the two of them when they turn around! ”
Seeing this, Concubine Wen naturally wanted to help Yuanchang, and persuaded with a smile: "Where does a family think so much?" I think most of the time is the only one girl under the knee of Da Lang, although it is a concubine, but it is also raised by a concubine, and now it is a few years old to go out of the cabinet, Da Lang is afraid that it is to make her face look better, so he wants to ask for her to be sealed, although this matter is not very in line with the rules, but Da Lang has a heart of love for his daughter, and thinks that the Queen Mother has always been merciful, and His Majesty is also generous to his brothers, so he did not succeed in the Queen Mother, so he thought about asking His Majesty to help speak, but this matter has the intention of hiding from the Queen Mother, Da Lang is ashamed that he has not come, I asked Erlang to pass the word, Erlang, I'm afraid it's also a misunderstanding, just when Da Lang wants His Majesty to give a direct decree - now that it's clear, it's just a matter of a few words, besides, Your Majesty is benevolent and filial, which one of these up and down doesn't know? The best firefox hunted by His Majesty last autumn was not sent to the Queen Mother as soon as he returned to the palace? ”
Concubine Wen's words were ingenious, although Ji Shen was unhappy, but he also knew that Empress Dowager Gao loved Ji Xi, that is, she knew that she had been wronged, and it was okay to scold a few words, if you really punished Ji Xilai, Empress Dowager Gao must be the first to stand up against it, he was taught by Emperor Gaozu and the first emperor Ruizong, and he was not a person without a city, so he took advantage of the situation to accept the displeasure at this moment, and said to Empress Dowager Gao: "Queen Mother, the child has no intention of punishing the two brothers, but the brothers act like this, If the child did not come to Ganquan Palace today to ask the queen mother to be the master, I am afraid that the two brothers will be successful, but the crime is all borne by the child, of course, the child is not unwilling to bear the charge for the brothers, but this matter is obviously opposed by the queen mother, how can the child be willing to disobey the mother's will? The two brothers really broke the child's heart this time! ”
Empress Dowager Gao secretly scolded the eldest son in her heart for being confused, and took pity on her beloved second son who was innocently implicated, and also knew that the youngest son was wronged this time, because Ji Shen was raised by Gaozu himself since he was a child, and later he was taught by Ruizong, coupled with the age gap between King Anping and King Guangling, although the three of them were born from the same mother, they were actually not very close, but they were afraid that they would be suspicious of each other because of this matter, and they were busy saying: "The emperor is indeed wronged this time, this is all their bad, the mourning family made people out of the palace, and called Dalang to deal with it!" ”
