Chapter Seventy-Six: The Queen (Reward for Maryane's Parent)
"Yikes! Miss Shi, aren't Mrs. Lin and you cousins? I said that there is a reason why Miss Shi is so talented! Zheng Rong, the second girl of the Jinxiang Hou family, suddenly spoke up at this time, with ridicule and disdain in her tone. Flash Dance.
How could Shi Jingya not hear the implicit meaning in Zheng Rong's words, didn't she mean that she was not as good as Jia Min? Shi Jingya was depressed in her heart, but on such an occasion, when so many ladies were in front of her, how could she not do anything that harmed the Shi family, not to mention the current status of the Rongguo Mansion and the Lin family, how could she be stupid enough to let people be gunslingers.
"Second Miss Zheng is right, Mrs. Lin is indeed my cousin. When my cousin was still in the boudoir, she was a talented woman in the capital, and she was also gentle and elegant, and she was good at managing the family. Otherwise, I wouldn't have been in Lin Tanda's eyes! I know that Brother-in-law Lin was favored by many people, and some people were in a hurry to marry into the Lin Mansion, but ah, Brother-in-law Lin didn't take a fancy to it! ”
The ladies present were silent, who didn't know, Zheng Bao, the eldest girl of the Jinxiang Hou family, was bent on marrying Lin Ruhai, and the Jinxiang Hou personally came to the door to propose marriage, but Lin Ruhai refused, and within a few days, the news of Lin Ruhai and Jia Min's marriage came out, Zheng Baobao went to the gate of the Lin family to make a big fuss, which became a big joke in the whole capital.
Zheng Rong was furious when he heard this, and he raised his hand to teach Shi Jingya a lesson, but was caught by Niu Lianxiang, the youngest daughter of Fuguo Gong, "What is Miss Zheng going to do, don't look at what the place is!" ”
"Humph! You have a good relationship with Jia Min, what when I don't know? You helped her bully me, I'll tell my brother when I get back! Niu Lianxiang was given to Zheng Xuan, the only son of Jinxianghou, a year ago, and he will soon be married. 35xs Zheng Rong's words did not make Niu Lianxiang feel scared, but smiled generously and turned around and walked away, which made Zheng Rong feel like a big punch on cotton.
Marquis Jinxiang has a total of nine daughters, and there is only one son, and he is still the eldest son. The title of Marquis of Jinxiang is hereditary, and he is also the only hereditary marquis with military power. Marquis Jinxiang used to be the emperor's companion, and he can be regarded as Lin Ruhai's senior brother. At that time, the Marquis of Jinxiang went to the Lin Mansion to propose marriage, and the reason why Lin Ruhai refused was because he was inferior in rank, and because he knew that the emperor did not want to see him marry someone with military power.
The dispute at the gate of the palace because of Jia Min, Jia Min herself didn't know that she had arrived at the queen's Qifeng Hall at this time.
"The concubine meets the queen! Niang Chitose Chitose! ”
"Hurry up, please!" The queen's voice was very soft, which made Jia Min a little nervous, and suddenly relaxed a lot.
"Thank you, Queen Mother!"
The queen looked at the beauty standing down below, and said secretly in her heart: No wonder Lin Ruhai treats her like a jewel, such a character.
"Hurry up and give Mrs. Lin a seat!"
Jia Min saluted the eldest princess who was already in the Qifeng Palace, and sat on the round stool prepared by the palace maid.
Jia Min raised her eyes and glanced at the queen mother, just like she remembered. The queen is the emperor's wife, nearly fifty years old, her hair has turned gray, and there are inevitably some traces of time on her face. But the queen is atmospheric and indifferent, which makes her whole person look very kind. She has a son and a daughter with the emperor, the daughter is Her Royal Highness the eldest princess, and the son is the current His Royal Highness the Prince. The emperor went to the northwest when the eldest princess was three years old, and she went for ten years. At that time, the queen mother had to control the harem and take care of the affairs of the previous dynasty, which took a lot of effort, and her body also lost her vitality, so she looked a little older. After the emperor returned to the court, he was very grateful to the queen, and it can be said that without the queen sitting in the rear, the emperor would not be able to successfully recover the northwest. Therefore, in the two years that the queen recuperated her body, no concubine in the harem was allowed to be pregnant, until the queen successfully gave birth to a baby boy, and the emperor ordered the concubines to stop the medicine. It was only after the crown prince was canonized as a prince when he was three years old that there were other princes in the palace one after another. The emperor and the queen are a young husband and wife who love each other, even if the emperor loves Wang Guifei, she is never allowed to violate the strictest of the queen. So everyone used to say: The emperor loves Wang Guifei the most, and the only one who trusts and loves the queen the most. It can be seen that the status of the queen mother in the harem cannot be compared.
The queen chatted with Jia Min for a long time, originally just because the emperor wanted to win people's hearts and passively befriended, maybe there was some curiosity about Jia Min, but later, she really liked Jia Min.
"This palace has always been curious about what kind of woman can win the heart of the sea. When I saw it today, it made this palace feel like I was seeing each other late. The queen smiled.
"Rental mother, I'll just say, Min'er is a very good woman, you will definitely like her!" The county lord of Jiayue leaned on the queen's arm and looked at her with a smile.
"That's right! How smart my little Jiayue is! You can't be wrong with your good sister. The queen patted Jiayue's hand and smiled.
Jiayue winked at Jia Min, raised her chin and said, "That's, don't look at who I am!" ”
"Jiayue! Don't be rude! The eldest princess reprimanded.
The queen mother glanced at the eldest princess, "She is married, you are still so fierce to her, where can she put her face?" I won't say it well! Turning his head, he saw that the county lord of Jiayue lowered his head and looked pitiful, so he held her in his arms and coaxed: "Okay!" Your mother is also good for you! If your mother-in-law sees you like this, wouldn't you be born and say that your mother didn't treat you better, and then punished you, don't you look for this palace to cry, this palace won't help you! Can it be changed in the future? ”
Jiayue pouted aggrievedly and nodded, "I'm very well-behaved in my mother-in-law's house, and my mother-in-law says that I am well-behaved and sensible, and I will please her!" ”
"That's looking at your emperor's uncle's face!" The eldest princess said angrily.
"Oh! Can't I pay attention in the future? ”
"When you hear you say these words, your ears are calloused, and I haven't seen you really grow!"
"Alright, alright! Jiayue is still young! Besides, she already knew she was wrong! The queen hurriedly played the round.
"Actually, Jiayue still knows a lot about outsiders on weekdays, she just doesn't have a defense against her own people." Jia Min also spoke.
"Hmmm! Hongu believed Min'a's words. ”
The eldest princess saw that everyone was protecting Jiayue, and this was not the time to teach her, so she didn't say anything.
This is, there is a eunuch to come to the court: everything is ready in the imperial garden, please ask the queen to come over.
The queen walked out of the Qifeng Hall with the support of the eldest princess, and the county lord of Jiayue and Jia Min followed hand in hand.
