Chapter Seventy-Nine: Temptation

Shangguan Wanwan didn't show weakness, she took a few steps forward, looked up and said meaninglessly: "Why don't I dare?" Why don't you try it, do I dare? ”

"You! Okay, I promise you, but you also have to promise me that you must not let Song Zichu marry Sheng Chonghua. Otherwise, even if you threaten me, I will let it go. Big deal, let's break the net! ”

Shangguan pouted, he didn't want to pay attention to it, but after thinking about it, Song Zilan was not a problem, but Song Zichu was his fierce rival. These two are sisters again, and it is not a good choice to be able to enlist such a powerful helper as Song Zilan to help him deal with her together, so he nodded and said, "Okay, I promise you, we will make up our minds." ”

"Okay, that's a deal."

The two then sat down and began to discuss their next move. It is said that if they smell alike, they are called confidants, and now these two people hate Zichu very much, and they each have their own scruples, but the common purpose is to hope that Zichu will be embarrassed and down. In the end, Shangguan Wan gritted his teeth and said: "Okay, since we all hope that she will not have a good life, then simply let her not be able to marry Sheng Chonghua, nor can she marry His Royal Highness King Ding." It's best to find someone who hates her very much, and let her be a concubine! ”

Song Zilan nodded, and then said: "But her uncle is Helian Haoran, Helian Mansion is rich, and she has a marriage contract with Sheng Mansion, how can she only marry a concubine?" Also, she now has the support of the queen's mother, have you heard of it? The queen mother personally mentioned the word to her, if we make a stumbling block for her, this person must make the queen mother whip out of reach. ”

Shangguan nodded politely and said, "Yes, what you said makes sense." However, who can make the queen scruples? Unless...... That's right! I remember! ”

Shangguan screamed in amazement, startling Song Zilan. Then I saw Shangguan Wan's eyes lit up, and he said triumphantly: "I think of a ready-made person, as long as Song Zichu is on the edge of him, when the time comes, no matter who it is, she will not be able to stop her Song Zichu from being a concubine!" ”

"Who? It's a good idea, but let's hear it. ”

Shangguan Wan glanced at Song Zilan and said, "I can't tell you this first, anyway, you will know when the time comes." By the way, I heard that Sheng Chonghua is very familiar with His Royal Highness the Crown Prince? You ask him to talk to His Royal Highness the Prince, just say that the Queen Mother intends to arrange the marriage between King Ding and Song Zichu, and His Royal Highness King Ding is also interested in Song Zichu. The next thing, let's just wait to see the good show. ”

Song Zilan's eyes widened when she heard this, and then she understood Shangguan's intentions, so she gasped and said in surprise: "What do you mean is to let Song Zichu marry His Royal Highness the Prince?" No, this won't work, His Royal Highness the Crown Prince will be the Son of Heaven in the future, if she Song Zichu is favored, there will be no good fruits for us to eat. ”

Shangguan Wanxuan had a plan in her heart, but it was just inconvenient to explain it to Song Zilan. immediately snorted coldly and said, "Do you think that she Song Zichu will definitely be favored by His Royal Highness the Crown Prince?" You don't want to think about it, what kind of character is the crown princess today? As a concubine under her, can she get a good one at the beginning of Song Zichu? ”

The reputation of the crown princess Zhang is an iron-fisted figure in the circle of nobles in Beijing. Song Zilan had also heard of it before, and it was said that in the backyard of the East Palace, except for the crown princess, the rest of the concubines were just decorations. From this point of view, Zhang's methods are serious. Thinking about it like this, she also felt that this idea was somewhat feasible, so she nodded and said, "Okay, I will try to inform Hua Lang about this matter, and it will definitely be done." However, if the crown princess knows that the two of us are involved in this matter, will she blame us at that time? ”

"You don't have to worry about this, and you don't want to think about it, what kind of character is my father? No matter how powerful she is, can she still find me uncomfortable? She is not a queen now, and it is still unknown whether she will be a queen in the future. ”

Song Zilan didn't have the confidence of Shangguan Wanshu, but she knew that she was quite hard backstage, so she said: "Okay, you said this, you have to bear whatever happens." ”

After the two of them finished their discussions, they went their separate ways.

Besides, Jun Yuchen's side, when he returned to the palace, after he met his father and queen mother, he was busy going to see his grandmother, the queen mother. The queen mother saw her grandson's somewhat emaciated appearance, obviously Jun Yuchen was also worried in the palace these days, and she was naturally very distressed.

After the grandfather and grandson gossiped for a while, she returned to the topic and said: "Chen'er, you are the youngest grandson of the mourning family, and now I see that you are not young, and some of the brothers who are about the same age as you have already had a group of wives and concubines. When I returned to the palace this time, the mourning family wanted to help you find a suitable girl and settle your family affairs earlier, what do you say? ”

Jun Yuchen was thinking about how to open this mouth with the Queen Mother and let her match the marriage between herself and Zichu, and immediately said when she heard this: "The imperial grandmother loves her grandson the most, and her grandson will naturally not shirk your good intentions." I just don't know, Imperial Grandmother, do you have any suitable candidates in mind? ”

The Queen Mother saw that Jun Yuchen was still selling Guan Zi and pretending to be stupid in front of her, so she didn't break it, so she smiled and said: "Well, there is such a person, and the mourning family feels that it is very right with you, but it also depends on your own meaning." ”

Jun Yuchen asked tentatively, "Oh? I don't know who you are talking about, grandmother? Say it and take a look, do you have an impression of your grandson? ”

The Queen Mother had the intention to tease him, so she deliberately looked at the left and right and said, "The mourning family heard that your mother seems to have a lot of feelings for the young lady of the Shangguan family, and I think you and Wan'er are also childhood sweethearts, what do you think of her?" ”

"Huh? Shangguan is slight? Imperial grandmother, you don't know that girl's temperament, and your grandson can't stand her brutal and willful. Besides, you are the elder who loves your grandchildren the most, and the person you choose for your grandchild will definitely have a better vision than the queen mother. ”

The Queen Mother was very happy by Jun Yuchen's words, the conflict between her mother-in-law and daughter-in-law between her and Queen Nalan has been known to everyone in the royal family for a long time. And Jun Yuchen happened to take advantage of the leak this time, deliberately raised her high, and put Queen Nalan aside. In this way, how can the Queen Mother not think about him?

The Queen Mother smiled and scolded her grandson: "You monkey, you don't have to please me in front of my wife, how do you know that the person I choose for you must be the one you like?" ”

Jun Yuchen took the opportunity to stick to the Queen Mother, pinching her shoulders while saying, "Grandmother Huang, about this matter, in fact, my grandson has a candidate in my heart, and I want to hear what you mean first." I haven't mentioned this to my mother yet! Just wait for you to see what you want before making a decision. ”

The Queen Mother understood in her heart, pretending to be confused on her face, and said, "Oh? Do you have someone in your heart? Let's listen to it, let's see whose daughter can be so valued by the grandson of the mourning family? ”

Jun Yuchen still used some brains at this time, he thought about it for a while, and said, "Imperial grandmother, my grandson wants to ask you first, what kind of girl do you like?" What kind of person do you want your granddaughter-in-law to be? ”

The Queen Mother knew that Jun Yuchen began to guide herself to look at Song Zichu this time. Then he smiled and said: "It doesn't matter what the mourning wife likes, the most important thing is that you like it, after all, this husband and wife live a life, but it is a lifelong thing." You're not a prince, so there's no need to put so many rules on yourself. The greatest wish of the mourning family is to see that you can live comfortably. If you live well, it is the greatest filial piety to the mourning family. ”

Jun Yuchen naturally knew that the Queen Mother did not have such a strong utilitarian heart as her mother, so she said: "Yes, the imperial grandmother loves her grandson the most." Grandson will tell you the truth, grandson returned to Beijing this time, and happened to hear about Song Zichu, the eldest lady of the Song Mansion, and remembered that there was a relationship in the past, and felt that she was very agreeable, so ......".

"So you're taking a fancy to her?"

Jun Yuchen nodded a little embarrassedly, his handsome face turned red unconsciously, and he said in a low voice: "But my grandson also knows that I am not deeply involved in the world, and my eyes may not be as accurate as that of the imperial grandmother." Why don't you choose a time to personally help your grandchildren and help your eyes? ”

The Queen Mother was happy in her heart, but she still had an embarrassed expression on her face, and only hesitated: "The mourning family is happy to help you see people in this matter, but how can you explain it to your mother?" Anyway, you are her son, if she doesn't agree to this marriage, then the mourning family can't take her mother-in-law's shelf and force her to nod, right? ”

Jun Yuchen saw that the matter had become more than half, and hurriedly patted his chest and promised: "You just have to rest assured, on the queen mother's side, the grandson will find a way to persuade her." Besides, you are the grandmother of your grandson, and your opinions, whether they are the father or the queen mother, must be respected. As long as you say it is good, who dares to say it is bad? ”

"Okay, the mourning family will help you with this, see how you look. If you are really a well-behaved and sensible girl as you say, the mourning family will try to match you. ”

After the Queen Mother finished speaking, her heart was happy. Jun Yuchen remembered Empress Nalan's instructions, and he himself didn't want Zichu to know his true identity now, so he begged the Queen Mother to summon Zichu alone, so that she wouldn't see Shangguan Wanyin and other ladies of the family.

The Queen Mother thought about it and agreed.

After Jun Yuchen left, Rong Jia came over, and the master and servant looked at each other and smiled, and said, "Okay, this time, it seems that it is nine out of ten." ”

But Rong Jia immediately reminded: "Master, the slave maid heard that this Song Mansion and the Sheng Mansion had a marriage contract in the past. This marriage contract has not been officially canceled now, so when this matter comes to the queen, it must be a handle to talk about things! ”

"Well, this layer of mourning has also thought of it, but the mourning family has already taken measures, so you can wait and see."

Jun Yuchen came out of Zizhu Courtyard, thinking about what the Queen Mother said all the way. He was very worried that the queen mother would force him to marry Shangguan Wansu because she valued the military power of the Shangguan Mansion. After thinking about it for a while, he suddenly turned around and said to Mingyan: "You say, how can you make Shangguan Wanshu hate me and retreat when she sees me?" ”
