Chapter 216: Different
Today's capital is unstable, which is something that any citizen living in the capital can perceive.
Several originally lively streets are also very quiet today, and the shops in the capital are not like shops in other places, which will close on the day of the Chinese New Year's Eve.
The capital has a large population, and in previous years, almost all the shops in the capital would be open, but this morning, these shops who originally wanted to open their doors quickly closed their doors after noticing that something was wrong.
Earning money is important, but if your life is gone, no matter how much money you make, it will be in vain.
When Xu Shiqiu escorted his mother and son, as well as his sister-in-law and brother home, he saw a scene where the streets of the capital were almost empty.
In the carriage, Dong Shu also saw the scene of the street outside through the curtain, and as their carriage passed by, and then the carriages of other families behind them also drove slowly, and the originally empty street slowly became popular.
Retracting her gaze, Dong Shu looked at Mrs. Xu and said, "Mother, is my brother-in-law really going to ascend the throne?" ”
Until this meeting, Dong Shu still felt a little incredible.
Originally thought that they might need to flee for their lives today, but they didn't expect that although there was turmoil, they were quickly dealt with, and just now Rui Kangdi personally said the words of Ye Jingxing, the fifth prince of Zen.
And Master Xuanling has already calculated the day, and the second day of the second month of the first month is a good day for the new emperor to ascend the throne.
This will make the old lady Xu hear Dong Shu's question, and after laughing, she looked at Dong Shu and said: "Don't say it's you, many people didn't expect that the day would be so close." ”
Mrs. Xu, like many people, knew Rui Kangdi's temperament and knew that he was not a very decisive person, but she didn't expect that he was extraordinarily decisive in this matter.
The most important point is that Emperor Ruikang said today that the five princes Ye Jingxing and Xu Nuanwen will move to the palace from tomorrow, and as for the five princes' mansions, they will be left to Ye Huan and their three brothers to live first.
Seeing that Emperor Rui Kang had arranged the residence of Ye Jingxing's two children in the palace, everyone was surprised, and they could only silently accept such a decisive Emperor Rui Kang.
Ye sat aside, listening to the conversation between her younger siblings and her mother-in-law, and it was not until this moment that she looked up at her mother-in-law and said, "I heard that the body of the saint is not very good." ”
As soon as Ye's words came out, Mrs. Xu glanced at her.
Mrs. Xu naturally knew about this matter, especially as soon as today's incident came out, she would be very angry when she thought about Ruikangdi.
Ye Jingche's son is not worried, and he is afraid that he can't grasp the mentality of the other sons.
At this time, he was afraid that he really didn't have much energy to take care of these things, so he would hand over his rights so quickly.
It's just these words, it's hard to say clearly.
Thinking of this, Old Lady Xu paused for a moment before looking at the Ye family and said, "No matter what, after the new emperor ascends the throne, our Xu family will definitely have a reward." After you go back, remember to tell your family not to take the opportunity to make trouble, otherwise the Xu family's family will not be forgiving! ”
Ye knew that her mother-in-law was beating herself with this, and she was also thinking of knocking the children of the next generation through her own mouth.
The most important point is that my mother-in-law is afraid that she wants to take the opportunity to give the second brother and sister a hint to that idiot, after all, she has been a concubine for many years, and the Ye family still knows what kind of character the Jiang family is.
After all, there are some things that are inconvenient for my mother-in-law to say, and it is not suitable for my third brother and sister to say them, only my own identity is the most suitable.
Seeing Ye nodding, Mrs. Xu did not continue to speak.
Today, although Emperor Ruikang said that Zen is located in Ye Jingxing, the son-in-law, but the son-in-law has not yet ascended the throne after all.
Even if he ascends the throne, if Rui Kangdi is still there, then he will be suppressed.
The most critical point is that Ruikandi is not the only son of him, although he has won Ye Jingche now, he has not yet decided how to deal with Ye Jingche.
There are also several younger brothers of the son-in-law, especially Ye Jingde, who feels particularly bad, whether he will make something happen to him, it is uncertain.
Looking at her mother-in-law with a worried face, Ye and Dong Shu didn't speak again, but just quietly sat in the carriage with her.
The carriage soon arrived at the Xu family, and the servants of the Xu family saw Xu Shiqiu riding a horse from a distance, so they had already opened the door, and when the carriage arrived, they did not stop, and went directly into the courtyard.
The Xu family is very quiet, this is the latest news that everyone in the capital has heard.
After the saint had already said the words of Ye Jingxing, the fifth prince of the Zen Dynasty, the Xu family did not celebrate, but the family gathered quietly together for dinner.
What is going on in the palace today, this will make the old lady Xu pick and choose, and tell the others who stay at home what she can say.
When she said to the end, after Emperor Ruikang personally said the words of Ye Jingxing, the fifth prince of Zen, Jiang's eyes flashed with excitement.
Seeing that the Jiang family was excited, the Ye family, who had already been mentioned by her mother-in-law, suddenly spoke: "In the future, our Xu family's life will be more low-key." ”
As soon as Ye's words fell, Jiang forgot about the situation and couldn't wait to ask, "Why?" After saying this, the Jiang family may still be a little unwilling, thought about it and continued: "Shouldn't our Xu family's life be better and better in the future?" Why keep a low profile? In the past ten years, isn't our Xu family low-key enough? ”
The Jiang family felt that they had enough of the previous days, and in the future, the son-in-law of the Xu family became the emperor, and her father-in-law's own sister became the queen, and their Xu family became the descendants.
The Jiang clan felt unhappy, so when he spoke to the Ye clan just now, his tone was not very good.
Hearing Jiang's words, the juniors all subconsciously looked at Mrs. Xu, but who knew that Mrs. Xu didn't seem to see the movement here, her eyes were slightly closed, not knowing what she was thinking.
The Ye family was not angry because of the Jiang family's attitude just now, and she had long been aware of this concubine's temperament, so after the Jiang family's words fell, she just looked at the Jiang family and explained: "Because once our Xu family becomes a descendant, there will be more people staring at our Xu family, and an inconspicuous thing in the past may become an excuse for others to attack our Xu family." Speaking of this, Ye Shi paused before continuing: "Brother and sister, don't forget, that person's side is still an aunt and grandmother of our Xu family. He is not very old, and most of the officials want to send their daughters to the palace so that they can give birth to the prince and replace the position of our Xu family's aunt and grandmother! ”
As soon as Ye's words came out, Jiang's originally fiery heart instantly calmed down as if a basin of cold water had been poured on it.
Yes, she forgot that the most noble woman in the harem is not the queen, but the queen mother!
Only when her sister-in-law becomes the queen mother, and the nephew of their Xu family sits on the throne, can their Xu family really be safe.
Seeing that the Jiang family no longer spoke, the Ye family also breathed a sigh of relief, she was really afraid that the younger brother and sister of the Jiang family would not be able to see the situation clearly, if she really took the opportunity to do something, I was afraid that the entire Xu family would be unlucky.
Jiang's husband, Xu Xiaozhi, still has a bit of brains, and after listening to his sister-in-law's words, and seeing that his mother was silent, he knew that his sister-in-law's words would only be said with the acquiescence of his mother.
Thinking of his own lady's temperament, Xu Xiaozhi thought about it and looked at the mother at the top, the eldest brother and sister-in-law, and the third brother and younger sister at the bottom and said, "Don't worry, I will keep an eye on her." ”
Listening to Xu Xiaozhi's words, Jiang just felt that something was wrong and wanted to speak, but Xu Yanlang, who was sitting at another table, suddenly spoke: "Now that my uncle is going to ascend the throne, won't the marriage between Brother Yan Hao and me be delayed for a while?" After saying this, Xu Yanlang looked at Jiang again and said, "Mother, I'm afraid this matter will be hard for you again." ”
As soon as he heard the words of the eldest son, the Jiang family immediately threw away what Xu Xiaozhi said just now, and looked at the mother-in-law with an expectant expression.
What happens to the son's marriage depends on the mother-in-law's intentions!
Old Lady Xu opened her eyes after hearing Xu Yanlang speak, she knew that this was her grandson looking for something to do for his mother, so she said with the Jiang family's expectant expression: "How did I discuss with the two in-laws before, but what should I do now." It's just that there will definitely be more people who come to congratulate the gift, but who can accept everyone's things and what everyone's things can't, you still have to have a number in your heart. ”
As soon as Mrs. Xu's voice fell, in the entire dining room, except for Yuan Xi, who was still ignorant, the rest of the Xu family members responded respectfully 'yes'.
The Xu family is indeed different, but it is precisely because of this difference that they will have to be more careful in the future.
