Chapter 231: The Situation of Being Exploited
Actually, it's not a big deal. β
Ji Anchen scratched his head a little embarrassed, and said with a smile: "It's just that the third miss of the Yu family and her cousin the Ye family girl complained a few words, and they happened to be heard by their grandson, just thinking that after all, it is someone's family matter, and it is really not good for grandchildren to talk behind their backs, but the imperial grandmother asked, and she couldn't help but answer, so she had to ask the sisters around the imperial grandmother to avoid one or two, otherwise the grandson was really embarrassed to speak." β
Then he paused and said: "Grandson heard the third lady of the Yu family say to her cousin, her aunt, that is, the queen mother of the grandson, treats her mother's family very partially, because the general is a concubine, and the entire Yu family's main house is very contemptuous of the general, that is, even the servants of the Yu Mansion dare to put on a score in front of the general.
Although the rules in the palace, no matter whether it is a festival or a big day, only the female dependents of the lady who have been appointed are eligible to enter the palace to congratulate, but on the day of the queen mother's birthday, as the queen mother's mother's family, the queen mother originally had the right to summon the general's wife into the palace to celebrate her birthday.
Although the queen mother also summoned the third lady of the General's Mansion once, she was also extremely contemptuous, compared with the attitude of the cousin Shuning who was waiting for Yu Mansion, it was really a heaven and an earth, the third lady was not angry, and she seemed to have a lot of resentment towards the queen mother, but she was a junior after all, so she didn't dare to talk to anyone about it, but the cousin of the Ye family, who grew up with her since childhood, complained casually. β
Ji Anchen said that, and hurriedly added: "Imperial grandmother, you have an inquiry, and your grandson doesn't dare to hide it, it's just such a thing, your old man should listen to it as a joke, but don't tell it to others, if you let the queen mother know that the third lady of the General's Mansion is resentful, I'm afraid she will be angry, and I don't know how to punish the wife and the third lady of the General's Mansion." β
"The imperial grandmother is just gossiping with you, so naturally she won't talk about it."
Empress Dowager Han listened to Ji Anchen's words, and she was still thinking in her heart, she didn't expect that the suspicion within the Yu family was so deep, otherwise she would have heard the words of adults complaining about what a little girl knew.
Because she was thinking about something, Empress Dowager Han said to Ji Anchen a little absentmindedly: "Don't worry, the imperial grandmother is not a person who likes to chew people's tongues everywhere. Then go back and read your book, for the mourners are a little tired, and they need to rest. β
Glancing at the Empress Dowager Han, who was still in good spirits, Ji Anchen knew that the so-called lack of rest was just an excuse for the Empress Dowager Han.
It's just that the head of Shoukang Palace is so big, he has long been used to it, and he didn't say anything, so he immediately got up and respectfully saluted the Empress Dowager Han and retired.
After the hall calmed down, the Empress Dowager Han was thinking about things, and while reaching out to pick up a peach from the fruit bowl,
"If it's a little bit of a scratch outside, you'll see it,...... But if this rots from the inside, for a while, it really can't be noticed, and until it is rotten in the end, it will be irretrievable. β
Ji Anchen's words rang in the ears of Empress Dowager Han again, and she seemed to understand something, and couldn't help laughing.
No matter what is in this world, no matter how shiny and sturdy it looks from the outside, there is probably nothing that can stand up to rotting from the inside.
So he called softly: "Come on." β
Zhu Yun came in gently: "The Queen Mother commands." β
"You go and tell Anchen boy, and say that it was the mourning family, let her go to the eldest princess's mansion tomorrow, invite the eldest princess into the palace, and come to accompany the mourning family for dinner." Empress Dowager Han said thoughtfully.
"Yes, slave maid understands."
Zhu Yun raised her head slightly, secretly glanced at Empress Dowager Han's face, and saw that she didn't seem to have any other instructions, so she gently got up and went out.
Ji Anchen had just grinded to write, and listened to Zhuyun come in and explain the instructions of the Queen Mother.
His clear eyes flickered slightly, but there was still an innocent and pure smile on his face: "Sister Lao Zhuyun replied to the imperial grandmother, and the grandson remembered it and understood that he would definitely invite the imperial aunt into the palace." β
Zhu Yun looked at Ji Anchenyi with an uncertain face, her lips moved, but in the end, she didn't say anything, just sighed slightly and went out.
How could Ji Anchen not understand what Zhu Yun was thinking?
He has been raised in Shoukang Palace since he was a child, although his face is bright, in fact, only he knows the bitterness in his heart.
It's just that he has always been sweet and pleasant, and several faceless maids around Empress Dowager Han like her very much.
Ji Anchen guessed that Zhu Yun probably wanted to remind him that Empress Dowager Han was just using him as a tool to deal with Empress Yu in the future, and she probably wanted to tell herself to keep some eyes on her own protection.
It's just that Zhu Yun has served the Empress Dowager Han for many years, and her awe of the Empress Dowager Han has long been in her bones.
Therefore, all the worries about Ji Anchen turned into the last sigh.
Although Ji Anchen looks at people as small, he is not really a naΓ―ve and innocent person who doesn't understand anything.
In front of the Empress Dowager Han, what can be said and what cannot be said, what to tell her is useful and what is useless to tell her, Ji Anchen's heart naturally has considerations.
Although he was used as a pawn, it also happened to show that he had the usefulness of his existence, which was also a good thing for him, after all, in this palace, people who were useless would not live long, even if they were princesses and princesses.
It's just that if this situation of being used can be handled properly, even if you can become a person who uses others.
Ji Shuyu finished the lessons of the Four Books and Five Classics in the two study houses in the morning, and arranged other classes in the afternoon, taught by the master next to her, she assigned homework to Yu Wanning and Ye Xinmei, and entered the palace with Ji Anchen.
Empress Dowager Han had just woken up from a nap and was being served by Zhu Yun to grate her hair.
An Chen stepped forward to ask for peace, but Empress Dowager Han only raised her head and said, "You go back to your house to study, and tell your aunt if you have something to do." β
"Yes, the grandson is gone."
Ji Anchen saluted again, and just after seeing Ji Shuyu, he was about to go out.
Ji Shuyu patted Ji Anchen on the shoulder lovingly, and said softly: "I'm in a hurry today, I didn't have time to tell you about the problems you encountered in reading, and when you come to your aunt's house tomorrow, your aunt will teach you." β
"Thank you, Aunt Huang."
In this palace, only Ji Shuyu has always loved Ji Anchen and treated him well, so Ji Anchen has always been the closest to Ji Shuyu.
