Chapter 981: The Old Way of Eating and Drinking
Old Madam Li listened to her son's words and sighed, "You don't know your sister's temperament, Zheng Chunfeng doesn't use any means in this matter, but she doesn't care what means the people below use, she can't protect the child in her belly, she only thinks that Zheng Chunfeng has no brains." ”
Ten years ago, Hua Concubine was favored by the Holy Grace, Li Zhaorong and Chen Concubine conspired to kill the six princesses born by Hua Concubine because of jealousy and hatred.
Afterwards, Hua Concubine collapsed, closed the door and said that she was ill, Li Zhaorong and Chen Concubine were removed by Chai Yansheng, and the queen sat on the fisherman's profit and was happy to see it.
Mrs. Li knows more than others, in fact, Li Zhaorong and Concubine Chen conspired to poison Concubine Hua back then, and the queen was also secretly pushing the force, wanting them to help her in addition to Concubine Hua, the thorn in her side, and the Queen Mother also knew, so Li Zhaorong and Concubine Chen were so fearless.
After killing the six princesses by mistake, the saint did not criticize these two too harshly, because of the consideration of the court situation, as well as the queen mother and the queen.
It's just that no one thought that Chai Yansheng, who was only ten years old at the time, would make a move, and he suppressed the six palaces so fiercely that no one in the six palaces dared to beat Hua Concubine's idea, and the queen was afraid of him.
is different from the concubine Hua who was brought into the palace from the people by the saint as a plaything, has no mother's reliable family, and can be bullied and ridiculed by anyone, Zheng Meiren has the support of the right minister and Zheng Junfeng behind her. If something happens to Zheng Meiren, the right minister will inevitably come forward, and the saint will also be angry with the queen, and the second prince and the left minister will also be implicated.
For a child who doesn't know whether it's a boy or a girl, it's too much to pay for it. But if her daughter is allowed to protect Zheng Meiren's baby, she will feel uncomfortable.
Her daughter has suffered a lot of grievances in the palace over the years, and Mrs. Li really doesn't want her to hold it back.
Zuo Xiang persuaded, "Mother, I've been here for so many years, and I see that my sister is about to come out." No matter what, my mother has to persuade her this time. Even if Zheng Mei was born with a son, it is nothing more than a number of county kings like the four princes, so there is nothing to worry about. ”
In the eyes of Li's mother and son, the fourth prince is a spoiled child, completely useless. When the second prince ascends the throne, he will just be a free king.
Old Madam Li nodded in response, "How is the errand of the fourth prince?" ”
"A few days ago, he sent a message to Yishou Palace, saying that he was pursuing Chai Yanting with all his might, and he would be able to capture him within a month. I don't know if it's true or not. Zuo Xiang replied, not only did he think so, but Emperor Jianlong only smiled and didn't say anything when he saw it.
Old Madam Li also smiled, "His words are only credible for three points, and I just found some news about Chai Yanting." Chai Yanting, you still have to use Yuantong as bait to fish it out. ”
"There are a lot of people who are eyeing this bait, they are all waiting for the opportunity, once the four princes return to Beijing in vain, it is the time for these people to offer advice to the saint." Zuo Xiang saw it thoroughly, and now these people are not moving, because even if they offer advice and catch Yuantong, they are still grabbing credit from the four princes, and it is better to wait for the four princes to return to Beijing in discouragement and be scolded.
Speaking of Yuantong, Mrs. Li asked, "What are the plans of King Sheng?" Xiao Nuan's family gets along well with Yuantong, according to their temperament, I'm afraid they want to keep Yuantong, right? ”
Zuo Xiang analyzed, "The Qin family is soft-hearted, for the sake of Wang Shiqing's daughter, she still looks at her son unpleasantly, if she knows about Yuantong, she will definitely intercede with King Sheng for him." However, Chen Xiaonuan is not a soft-hearted person, the Qin family and Xiaocao only obey Xiaonuan's orders, so they will not intervene, at most they will not fall into the ground. ”
"They have been able to get to this point, all thanks to Xiao Nuan, this girl is not easy, and her brain is very clear." Mrs. Li praised. Although Xiao Nuan came from a humble background, King Sheng married her, which is definitely like a tiger.
Zuo Xiang smiled, "Xiao Nuan's brain is very clear, so she won't stop the Qin family from marrying into our family, it should be that the Qin family really doesn't want to marry again, so don't pick Xiao Nuan's reason again." ”
Old Madam Li glanced at her son, "Mother doesn't believe it, you don't care at all!" ”
Zuo Xiang touched his nose, rolled his eyes, and said, "Your excellent son is in a hurry to marry a divorced country woman, but she refuses in every way." Of course, the son will lose face a little, but he really doesn't care. The son has long passed the age of Muai, how can he care about this? ”
"Haha, hahahaha-" Old Madam Li suddenly patted the bed and laughed wildly, "Xiaocao is really a genius!" If you don't care, what do you do with your eyes? ”
No matter what her mother thinks, she can make her smile and smile, and Zuo Xiang is also happy. After she had laughed enough, she continued, "I don't know what Xiao Nuan did, but I got the news that Huiqing had already given an order to his disciple Zhizhen to get rid of the scourge of Yuantong as soon as possible." ”
Old Madam Li smiled and said disdainfully, "Huiqing is called a monk in vain, and there is no Buddhist compassion in his heart. Regardless of whether Yuantong is the widow of King Qing or not, he is a disciple of Buddhism, and even if Huiqing does not help, he should not harm him. He, the abbot of Yongfu Temple, has done it! ”
Zuo Xiang was helpless, "After he retreats, he can only let Zhizang be, and Zhizang is not as good as him." Originally, Zhizhen deserved it, but he took the initiative to leave Nanshan Pass, and he should not return to Beijing. ”
Zhizhen is proficient in Buddhism, but he nests in the ravines and does not come back, which is a pity. Old Madam Li said again, "The rise and fall of Buddhism is related to the rise and fall of the country, it is better for you to discuss this matter with the saint, and Yan Yi should also talk about it." ”
Yuantong, who was regarded as bait by everyone, was squatting on a big stone not far from Zhenqing Temple at this time, watching the four brothers of He Fenglu practice, and there was a bundle of firewood he had just chopped back next to him.
Shi Wuyi, who was lying next to Yuantong basking in the sun, suddenly raised his nose and sat up, "Little monk, the buns in your temple are steamed." ”
Yuantong also smelled the fragrance, picked up the firewood and jumped off the stone, and said happily, "The master will wait a while, and the little monk will go back when he goes." ”
"There is a little master Lao, if there is soup, I will also help the old Taoist serve a share." Seeing that the little monk ran away, Shi Wuyi hurriedly shouted.
"Yuantong, there are four buns in the poor road!" After Zhao Shouchun finished speaking, he couldn't help but suck his saliva.
The peasant man who had just entered the Zhenqing Temple to practice was empty, looking at the group of old and young male and female Taoist priests who were pretending to practice outside the temple gate, but actually eating and drinking, they were very angry!
He threw down the broom and was about to go to the housekeeper Uncle Du to make a notice, but before he had walked a few steps, he saw Uncle Yuantong carrying a basket of buns in front, and Uncle Dutong came over with a fragrant mushroom soup in the back!
Uncle Yuantong passed by him and raised a bright smile, "Okay, it's time to wash your hands and eat." ”
Uncle Dutong, who has always hated Taoist priests, passed by him, and actually showed two snow-white front teeth, "Xingkong, I let Xingku make the sour soup tofu you love to drink, go quickly." ”
Xingkong's mouth immediately flushed with sour water, and he ran in.
As for the Taoist priest eating and drinking, the two uncles don't mind, what does he mind!
