Chapter 351: The Yuan Family
Many people thought at first that they had heard it wrong, or that the person who wrote the decree was not familiar with the Yuan family sisters and misspelled the name of the elder sister as the younger sister's?
Of course, they heard it right, one person may mishear, but it can't be a group of people together, right?
As for writing mistakes, that's not even more alike. Writing the holy decree is not Mengtong writing big characters, it is not surprising that one and a half are wrong, this is fatal! Even if they don't want to die, they may be demoted, punished, or even punished with a cane and sent to prison, even if they miswrite the name on their father's obituary, they can't write the holy decree wrong.
So what's going on?
Shouldn't Miss Yuan Ruojin be the one who was selected? After she fell into the water, Princess Fuyu also sent someone to visit her and sent a generous gift.
Everyone knows that Princess Fuyu often shares worries for Queen Cao, this Miss Yuan fell into the water, Princess Fuyu gave gifts, and it was clear that Miss Yuan was selected, and Princess Fuyu was the future daughter-in-law who visited Queen Cao.
And her sister Yuan Ruoqiu, as well as a girl Zhang, are obviously the culprits who framed Yuan Ruojin and fell into the water.
Why did the good people lose the election, and the bad ones were selected?
Doutang thought of Li Shanggong and said, "This matter is not over", did Li Shanggong foresee today's play at the beginning?
Of course, Doutang knew that he was not mistaken, and the person who wrote the holy decree was not mistaken, and of course, the emperor, the queen mother and His Royal Highness the Four Princes would definitely not be confused to pick the wrong person together.
That is to say, there must be something inside to the events of the past few days, and the truth is definitely not the one that has been rumored outside.
Doutang tried his best to recall the appearance of the Yuan Ruoqiu girl in the Yuan family, but he was far away at the time and couldn't really see it. I vaguely remember that she was not as tall as her sister, and although her face was also goose egg face, she looked thinner. After that, the girls were all in the same place, and the bean soup didn't pay much attention to her.
Liu Yan was not much surprised when he heard the news.
Ginkgo died unexpectedly, and her heart was like a cat in her arms, scratching uncomfortably.
Discomfort must also be endured.
She didn't want to be reprimanded and punished anymore.
Li Shanggong has already explained the truth to her, don't be curious when you are a slave, knowing more is not necessarily a good thing, and talking too much is not a good thing.
Liu Yan and Liu Yu went to Yilan Hall to ask An to speak.
The daughter-in-law has finally settled down, which is worth congratulating.
Empress Cao smiled, first asked Liu Yu how he slept at night, whether he had taken the medicine prescribed by Imperial Doctor Zhao on time, and then asked Liu Yan: "Mr. Cheng praised you for your recent progress in painting, and you also write carefully." ”
Liu Yan smiled: "Don't mention Mr. Cheng, the queen mother, I just want to ask, why is it not Miss Yuan who was chosen in the end, but her sister?" ”
Queen Cao asked one of them to serve a bowl of soup: "This, your fourth brother is quiet enough, like a little old man, you should marry him a more lively daughter-in-law, otherwise you are stable for the two of you, and I am more stable, how can you have anything to say when you sit together?" ”
Liu Yan sat down beside Empress Cao: "Oh, Queen Mother, you know that I didn't ask about this. This Yuan Ruoqiu girl, is it you fanciing? Or is it what the little brother likes? What the hell is going on with that falling overboard? ”
Yingluo on the side said with a smile: "Look at what the princess asked, one by one, which one should be answered first?" ”
Liu Yu was also full of curiosity on the side.
"Then the most important one." Liu Yan grinned: "Is Yuan Ruoqiu the little brother himself fancies?" ”
Empress Cao poked her in the head: "You're clever." ”
That's right, that's the most important thing.
"Your little brother is a dignified person, and he won't do anything frivolous and rude." Empress Cao first set the tone, and then affirmed Liu Yan's guess: "Your little brother and Miss Yuan haven't even spoken, that is, the Yuan family has a son Tuomen Lu followed to the palace to study, your little brother helped him, and later in order to express his gratitude, he gave two ancient books, your little brother is also a book lover, knowing that these two books are worth more than a box of gold, confiscated, he said that it was prepared by his second sister, and it was originally the dowry of her second sister's biological mother." ”
"Why aren't they born to a mother?"
Yingluo explained on the side: "The mother of the eldest girl Yuan is the original match, the mother of the second girl is the stepfamily, the mother of the son of the Yuan family is the concubine, and there are two concubines in their family, and there are five brothers and sisters in the family, all of whom have different mothers. ”
That's a ...... Just listening to it, you know that the Yuan family's situation can't be quiet.
"So the little brother knew about her from Miss Yuan's younger brother?"
Yingluo continued: "It's been a few months, and Miss Yuan specially thanked the four princes on the day she visited the lake in the princess's mansion, and this thank you is really sincere." ”
Empress Cao asked Liu Yan: "You don't seem to like Miss Yuan very much from the beginning?" ”
"I just think...... Since she is a person who abides by etiquette and norms, she shouldn't go to talk to her brother at that time, she knows that many people will see it, even if there is a bright and frank reason for this matter, others will still discuss it and speculate a lot. She shouldn't have done this for the sake of herself and her little brother's reputation. ”
Liu Yu echoed: "It's this reason, if a straightforward and unruly person does this, it makes sense, but it doesn't make sense for her to do it." ”
Liu Yan said: "Moreover, when I heard about a little thing about the Yuan family before, I always felt that something was wrong, and then I put it aside, and after thinking about it in the past few days, I still feel that there is something wrong." ”
Empress Cao asked, "When did you inquire about the Yuan family?" ”
Liu Yan waved his hand: "It doesn't matter. I heard that Yuan Er's biological mother lived in Zhuangzi for several years to recuperate because of her illness, and Yuan Er's daughter was filial and always followed her mother to serve her. ”
Yingluo said, "This slave has also heard about it. ”
"I only thought later, how old was Second Miss Yuan at that time? The Yuan family is so relieved that the two of them live in Zhuangzi? A sick person can't get up, and a person who is only a few years old may not be able to be sensible, can he rely on his subordinates alone? And she lived there for several years, and she didn't return to Yuan's house until her mother died. ”
Empress Cao and Yingluo looked at each other and smiled.
Queen Cao is pleased, and Yingluo is sincerely happy for Queen Cao and the fourth princess.
No one reminded her, but the princess herself can figure this out, which shows that the princess is really sensible, and it will not be so easy for others to deceive her in the future.
Liu Yu thought about it for a while, and said slowly: "It can be seen that the Yuan family is not as good as they advertise, harmonious and gentle. ”
Since the reputation of the Yuan family is just a layer of gold dust, just a light face, then the eldest girl Yuan takes care of and teaches her younger brothers and sisters, and she is especially friendly and fraternal, which is also questionable.
"And after the incident of falling into the water that day, I heard that the second girl of the Yuan family was behind the scenes? The Yuan family also said that they would send her back to the countryside, which I don't think is right. It is said that the ugliness of the family should not be publicized, they are the most face-saving scholars and eunuchs, how ugly is it for sisters to kill each other? The Yuan family should be covered and covered, how can they send people to the countryside at this time? Besides, at this age, how can she find her mother-in-law's family to marry when she is sent back to her hometown in the countryside, and what should she do about lifelong events? Did the Yuan family also kill their relatives with righteousness? Miss Yuan is really so generous and loves her younger brothers and sisters wholeheartedly, so she should discourage her family. ”
