Chapter 480, Noble Concubine
After the two sat down in the teahouse, because they were worried that pregnant women would not be able to drink tea, Yan Yan asked each other, but Chen Chen also told the truth that she was indeed more than four months pregnant.
Seeing this, Yan Yan ordered Xiao Er to serve Chen Chen a glass of white water, and then ordered a few snacks.
"Tell me, what's the matter with me?" Yan Yan took a sip of tea and asked straight to the point.
"Do you know that Lu Ming wants to take a concubine?" Chen Chen asked.
Yan Yan almost didn't squirt out the tea in her mouth when she heard this, and this opening sentence was too different from what she imagined.
What's going on here?
How could this matter reach Chen Chen's ears?
Chen Chen has only been in the capital for a few days, and she is not familiar with these boudoir ladies in the capital, right?
Yan Yan thought so and asked so.
"I really don't know any Zhou Wan, but I have heard a little about Lu Ming, don't worry, I'm not a nosy person, I just heard that you have a bad relationship with Lu Ming, and you are very familiar with this Zhou girl, so I paid attention to this matter."
According to Chen Chen, the Zhu family came to see Mrs. Xu and inquired about the rise and fall of the officials in the DPRK and China, but Mrs. Xu didn't think much about it, because her husband was the left minister and was in charge of the province.
Of course, as the left minister, Xu Liangxing has a lot of right to speak in the court, and he also has the right to refute at critical times (Note 1), so there must be a lot of officials who ask for the door.
Originally, Mrs. Xu didn't think much about it, but it happened that Xu Ruqing went to a party that day and met Yan Tong, and then she realized that the Zhu family was using Zhou Wan's idea.
Xu Ruqing had a few parties with Zhou Wan, and she recognized Zhou Wan's talent and character, so she went home and sighed a few words with her mother and brother and sister-in-law, but it was just emotion, after all, this kind of thing is not something that she can do as an outsider.
In this way, these words reached Chen Chen's ears.
"You mean, Yan Tong told Xu Ruqing?" Yan Yan was taken aback again.
But soon she remembered one thing again, when she came out of the Lu family that day, she happened to meet Ma's family, and Ma's most likely also saw Zhou's mother and Zhou Wan, and Yan Yu has always had no good impression of Zhou Wan, and she deliberately revealed her words.
After all, even Yan Yan could detect Zhu's intentions, could Yan Yu still be unclear?
It's just that Yan Yan doesn't understand, the key to this matter lies in Lu Ming and the Zhu family, what's the use of Yan Tong smearing Zhou Wan outside? It's easy to offend the mother and son because of this, Yan Yan doesn't think the mother and son are good people.
Another point, if Yan Tong does this, things will only backfire, if Zhou Wan's reputation is bad, she can only be forced to marry Lu Ming in the end.
Yan Yan didn't know whether Yan Tong came up with this idea himself or Ma's.
But this time the Zhu family also fought hard for Zhou Wan, she found out Zhou's mother's pulse, and knew that Zhou's mother must have dreamed that her husband would be reinstated, even if she sacrificed this daughter for this.
"What do you think of Zhou Wan's family this time? Doesn't this drive your daughter to a dead end? How can a concubine be so easy to do? Yan Yan sighed.
It must have been Zhou Wan or Zhou's mother who nodded first to have the Zhu family's trip to the Xu family, but how easy it was for the officials to succeed?
Thinking of this, Yan Yan sneered, she wanted to see, if the Zhu family's promise was not fulfilled, but the word spread, how would Zhou Wan deal with herself when she arrived?
"The law of the Great Zhou Dynasty stipulates that concubines are divided into noble concubines, concubines, and concubines, and the children of noble concubines are higher than those of concubines and concubines, and after the death of the main wife, the noble concubine can be corrected, and her children can be regarded as concubines." Chen Chen sneered and said.
These words were like an initiation, which made Yan Yan suddenly brighten.
Yes, the law of the Great Zhou Dynasty also stipulates that the concubine must be a woman with a clean family background, and the requirements for concubines are much lower, and they are generally turned from maids to regulars, not to mention the cheap concubines, who are brought back from the Fengyue place outside.
So no matter how many concubines Lu Ming married before, Yan Yu was not afraid, but this noble concubine worried her.
Not to mention, Lu Ming already has a good impression of Zhou Wan, if Zhou Wan enters the door, Yan Yu's status is really in jeopardy.
No, what position did the Lu family put the queen mother and the emperor in by doing this?
How many of these normal sons of these families have a noble concubine? Most of them are concubines, and cheap concubines are not excluded.
"It seems that your news is too unconventional, the son of the Duke of Protector, that is, your fourth brother-in-law, took a concubine a few days ago, and the external rhetoric is that Lu Han has no possibility of having children." Chen Chen sneered again.
"When did this happen?" Yan Yan really didn't have any news at all.
A few days ago, she didn't go out for more than half a month because of Lu Jin's illness, and later, it was the two women sent by Zhou Lu, and a few days later, it was the housekeeper of the Zhou family who came to the door, so Yan Yan really didn't go out to attend the party for some time.
However, with her personality, unless there is something unavoidable, she rarely goes out under normal circumstances.
Although Lu You goes out every day, he definitely can't hear these rumors in his working environment, and besides, his personality is relatively rigid, and he never pays attention to these rumors in the inner house.
But then again, if it weren't for the deliberate explanation, the maids around Yan Yan rarely inquired about these things, let alone participated in the dissemination and discussion, because they didn't want to cause trouble.
The main reason is that Yan Yan is already in the whirlpool of right and wrong, and she doesn't restrain people to be cautious in their words and deeds, but she is afraid that something may come out.
"No, can my mother-in-law agree?" Yan Yan suddenly thought of the Zhu family.
The Lu family is the head of the four princes, Lu Han is the only concubine of the Lu family, and its delicate degree is needless to say, the Zhu family can let the pearl of his palm suffer this kind of anger?
Besides, Lu Han didn't have a son, the child was fine, how could she allow her husband to take this step?
Also, she just went back to Lu's house a few days ago, and she didn't see the Zhu family and the old lady mention it, could it be that they were embarrassed and worried that she would see the joke.
But can this kind of thing be hidden?
"I don't know much about this, but Wu Zhen's concubine was half a month ago, and the woman is said to be a distant relative of Mrs. Wu's maiden family. Actually, you know what? The most envious of us people is you now, you also hurt your body after giving birth, but your husband doesn't want to talk about concubines, even concubines refuse to accept them. Chen Chen pulled his lips and smiled bitterly and said.
"Your consciousness is your husband... Yan Yan didn't ask the rest of the question.
Chen Chen is now pregnant, and she doesn't need to ask to know that Xu Yu must have a concubine or a maid in the warm house.
It's conventional.
Only people like Lu You are outliers and abnormalities.
