Chapter 36: Are You Telling a Story?!

When Empress Jiang arrived at the Taishi Palace, she saw Empress Dowager Gu sitting on top with a pale face, and scolded her: "Your mother's good son!" The headless and brainless beat Xingkang's children all over their bodies! Even our royal children are not so arrogant and vicious, don't you want to change your surname to Jiang in this world? ! ”

If this is to be replaced by another person, he immediately knelt on the ground and pleaded guilty in fear, but Queen Jiang didn't take it seriously, and saluted casually, and asked with a smile: "Queen Mother, you have no head and no brains, and your daughter-in-law can hear this called a cloud and a mountain of mist!" What's going on? ”

Empress Dowager Gu and this daughter-in-law have not quarreled for a year or two, and they have long been familiar with each other's temperament, so they don't bother to bother to speak, so they pointed down: "Chang Ping, you say!" ”

The princess of Changping stood up when she heard the voice, the princess was only in the first month of this year, and her appearance inherited her biological mother: goose egg face, distant mountain eyebrows, face like Qiongxue, and autumn water in her eyes. Wearing a palace dress with green and golden peony flowers and leaves, he wore a hanging hair and a bun, and the two jade steps on the bun shook gently with the movement, but it did not make a sound, which shows that the rules are good.

After standing up at this moment, he said crisply: "Queen Mother, here's the thing, first cousin met the county lord of Ningyi on the road......

Of course, the Empress Dowager Gu refused to admit that Guo Qingwu was specifically looking for trouble with Qiu Yulan, so the course of the conflict also became an inadvertent bump between the two parties, and the county lord of Ning Yi relied on his identity, and insulted the father and son of the Guo family, and even scolded Shi Han in public "not as good as a dog" - scolding Lao Tzu so badly in front of other people's sons, whoever is angry should be.

After Ling drunk and Jiang Yashuang arrived, he didn't ask about the indiscriminate pulling of the shelf, which led to the killing of Qingwu's entourage and the abuse of himself, and finally the old servant paid 10,000 taels of silver and countless good words before taking the person back for treatment.

Empress Jiang's face was full of relish: "This story is good, is there anything else?" ”

Princess Changping said respectfully: "Queen Mother, these are true. ”

"Even if it's true, what happened to the father and son of the Guo family when the county lord Ning Yi scolded a few words?" Empress Jiang has always been very short-sighted, three years ago on Chinese New Year's Eve, Jiang Yashuang beat Gu Yan, the prince of Guangyang, with a blue nose and swollen face outside the Taishi Palace, she can blame Gu Yan for not being beaten, let alone a prince of the country?

Qiu Yulan had already been treated by her as a nephew and daughter-in-law, and when her nephew and nephew were in trouble together, the queen immediately began to find reasons for them, "Just for the kindness of the old general Ruan, who raised and cultivated the situation, it is also appropriate to ask their father and son to make cattle and horses for the Ruan family for three lives and three generations." Now General Ruan's granddaughter scolds them for not being as good as dogs, what's all the fuss? This situation Qingwu is really ignorant and has no conscience! ”

Although Princess Changping followed the Empress Dowager Gu and was used to seeing her mother's unreasonable troubles, she couldn't help but stay for a moment before saying: "But no matter what the little uncle says, he is also a dignified prince, and he is the elder of the county lord of Ningyi!" ”

"The grade of the national prince is not as good as the county lord!" Empress Jiang said impatiently, "Since it is on the street, it is appropriate to say the national salute first!" And when you say that, are you a person who respects your elders? Well, in the future, if you let this palace know that you dare to be disrespectful to any of the elders in the clan, don't blame this palace for being ruthless! ”

Princess Changping's face turned pale suddenly - she knew that the queen was not joking, Da Rui Dingding has been nearly a hundred years now, there are so many people in the clan, and they don't live in the palace, how can Princess Changping recognize them all? Besides, she is a favored princess, and when she sees that the down-and-out clan in the far branch is still going to perform the ceremony, she feels that she can't live this day when she thinks about it! hurriedly cast a gaze for help to the Empress Dowager Gu.

Empress Dowager Gu said with a gloomy face: "Now that you're talking about the son of Xingkang, what are you doing to scare Chang Ping!" ”

Empress Jiang pursed the corners of her lips: "If it is really the flesh and blood of the imperial sister, it is not that I, who is an uncle, do not feel sorry for my nephew." But this is Qingwu, that is, a son born to a cheap maid - or illegal! Where can he afford his mother to worry about him later? In my opinion, this matter is just a matter of right and wrong, this kid has just come to Beijing and has made a difference, and it must not be a good thing! Give him a lesson, lest he continue to cause trouble with no one in his eyes! ”

Empress Dowager Gu heard that she was insinuating that her young daughter, Princess Xingkang, had nothing to do so far, which was the thing she regretted the most - if Xingkang could give birth to a son, Qingwu would be able to die in minutes! Although it's said that it's a puppet, it's more reassuring to control your bloodline, isn't it?

The Queen Mother's face sank, and she shouted, "What are you talking about?!" If you want to talk about the heirs, the mourning family still wants to ask you! You have been in charge of the Middle Palace for so many years, and you will forever be blessed with a daughter, where is the grandson who mourns the family's heart? ! ”

"Although there is no prince who respects you, the King of Qi and they all admire you very much." A trace of resentment flashed in the depths of Empress Jiang's pupils, but she said casually on her face, "But the daughter-in-law has always heard that Qingwu is very ignorant of this situation, and she is really not filial piety and considerate to the imperial sister!" ”

Where is Qingwu just unfilial and considerate of the eldest princess of Xingkang? His attitude towards Guo Shihan is even worse - of course Empress Dowager Gu will not be unclear about this, but Guo Shihan is such a son, he endured it, for the sake of the Zhenxi Army, in order to compete with the Jiang family, the eldest princess of Xingkang can only go to him.

This will be said by Empress Jiang, and Empress Dowager Gu also feels that this nominal grandson is not like words, it is too a slap in the face! But when he turned his mind and woke up, this was Queen Jiang provoking - Guo Shihan is such a sweet-hearted baby, who moved Guo Qingwu, even if it was his mother-in-law, could he not work hard?

No matter how much Qingwu is unhappy with the heart of the Empress Dowager's mother and daughter, but at the moment, he must be enveloped and maintained.

Empress Dowager Gu suppressed the distracting thoughts, and said with a cold face: "Their mother and son are very good!" What do you do when you are a queen old and listen to rumors? I don't have to lose the face of heaven! ”

She didn't want to continue to argue with Queen Jiang, so she directly got down to business, "This time, your nephew openly beat Guo Qingwu and killed all the entourage he took out at that time, no matter how you talk to him, you must be punished!" ”

"That situation Qingwu should be punished even more!" Empress Jiang sneered, "Didn't he just enter Beijing today, is it hard to see anyone in the past two days?" How did you meet this one who didn't know what was right or wrong, and how did you meet that one who didn't know right or wrong? It must have coveted the beauty of the county lord of Ningyi, and bullied her for not being protected by her father and princess, so she had a bad heart, so she bumped into the hands of the nineteen...... Speaking of which, the father and son are really wolf-hearted, General Ruan was the same as his own son back then, and the Ruan family has been so defeated for so many years, he didn't even say a word of greetings on the New Year's Day! The daughter-in-law thinks that the father and son are not worthy of being human beings at all, so it is better to ...... them all."

Empress Dowager Gu sneered and said, "What are you talking about?!" ”

Empress Jiang said: "Yes, but didn't this come from the queen mother's side?" The daughter-in-law's little nephew has never been the one who will take the initiative to cause trouble, don't you know? ”

"Chang Ping, go down first." Empress Dowager Gu glanced at her granddaughter and said.

Princess Changping was eager to stay away from Queen Jiang's fierce queen mother, so she immediately responded when she heard the words and retired from the palace.

After she left, Empress Dowager Gu sent the palace people again, and Queen Jiang knew that the drama was coming, and she also sent out the palace people who entered the palace with her. The tiger girl who will be the door, not inferior to the man in riding and shooting, is not afraid that she will suffer a loss if she is alone with the Empress Dowager Gu.

After clearing the scene, there were only two mothers-in-law and daughters-in-law left, and the Empress Dowager Gu said neatly: "It's impossible not to punish your nephew for this matter, and Shihan's father and son don't want to lose face, and the Zhenxi Army can't afford to lose this face!" ”

Empress Jiang sneered and said, "Can the Zhenbei Army afford to lose face?" If you have the ability, let the Zhenxi Army come to Beijing to ask for someone from the Jiang family! ”

Empress Dowager Gu also ignored her provocative words, and said: "It's useless for you to mess around, let the Manchu Dynasty civil and military comment on this matter, and the Jiang family can't take care of it!" Believe it or not, Xue Chang is here, and he must have said that he should be punished?! ”

Hearing her mention Xue Chang, Empress Jiang frowned and replied: "Then expose the things that Shi Han's father and son owe to General Ruan together, and let the Manchu Dynasty praise and comment!" ”

"I heard that you promised your niece to the King of Qi." Empress Dowager Gu sneered, "Why is it that the prince has not yet decided, but he wants to stretch out his hand to the Zhenxi Army?" Is it really up to you to rule this court? ”

"The daughter-in-law can't be the master, and the queen mother doesn't say that she will definitely be able to count." Empress Jiang also sneered, "You should know that Nineteen is the most painful nephew of the daughter-in-law, and I don't know how much better than King Yan and King Zhou!" The daughter-in-law will never agree to him being wronged! ”

Empress Dowager Gu said coldly: "Oh? Do you love him so much? But will Qin Guogong be the same? ”

Empress Jiang couldn't help but be speechless - of course she knew that her own father knew that although Qin Guogong had the title of "the dry city of the country", and he was born in the army, he fought the foundation of the Jiang family with a knife and a gun, but he was not rigid and arrogant, this time, since Jiang Yashuang did not suffer a loss, Qin Guogong would definitely not care about pretending to go to Guan Qingwu to make amends and send something.

Even if the court is punished, as long as it is not too excessive, Qin Guogong will not care.

Especially this one who has to be punished is Jiang Yashuang - Jiang Ya Dan, the eldest son of the fourth room, has obviously been spoiled, and he can't afford to take on the heavy responsibility of the fourth room, Qin Guogong personally cultivated the younger son Jiang Yashuang for the second son, in order to let him be the pillar of the fourth room and the future, not to raise him into a delicate flower - but now that the Jiang family is in full swing, although Jiang Yashuang has been strictly trained, he has never suffered any major setbacks and grievances.

Maybe Qin Guogong still wishes that his little grandson would have such a blow!

Seeing that the queen was silent, Empress Dowager Gu softened her tone again: "Of course, how to punish this is also debatable." After all, Qingwu is all flesh wounds, and your nephew is still measured in the end. ”

Empress Jiang said suspiciously: "What does the queen mother want to do?" "She doesn't think that Empress Dowager Gu is suddenly kind, there must be an exchange condition!

"The mourning family plans to give Chang Ping to Guo Qingwu." Sure enough, Empress Dowager Gu immediately said, "It's okay if you don't want to do it, but don't make trouble!" ”

Princess Changping was raised by Empress Dowager Gu, and Shi Han had already agreed to this marriage, so it is said that the queen has nothing to say here. But Empress Dowager Gu knows that her daughter-in-law has always been ignorant and has to fight for three points, whether it is Princess Changping or the Zhenxi Army, it is not pleasing to the eye of Queen Jiang, if there are no conditions, she is willing to let Princess Changping descend smoothly!

After all, Queen Jiang is the mother-in-law of Princess Changping, and the princess's marriage, theoretically speaking, she is the first person who is qualified to manage it, and the queen mother can only ask.

Even if Empress Dowager Gu made a decree to let Guo Qingwu still be the master, Empress Jiang would intervene casually, which would make this marriage embarrassing and embarrassing - Empress Dowager Gu had so many grandchildren and raised such a person personally, but she didn't want her to be wronged. And the family can't afford to lose this face!

Originally, the Queen Mother planned to grasp the handle of the queen party to force Queen Jiang to comply, but this time Jiang Yashuang happened to be sent to the door, which saved her hands and feet.

Hearing this, the queen lowered her head and thought for a while, and said, "Yes, yes, but the conditions have to be added." ”

Empress Dowager Gu frowned: "Which one?" ”

"Then Deng Yi Hengzhu doesn't like women, what are you doing to delay the youth of Lord Ningyi?" Empress Jiang said, "Let him retire this family affair with Xihe Wangfu, and the matter of Changping's decline, my daughter-in-law promises to give her a beautiful and unforgettable life, how about it?!" ”

"It can't be!" Empress Dowager Gu refused without even thinking about it, this will be her urging the Guo family to cut the grass and eradicate the roots, then Qiu Jinglan holds the "Tianya" organization that existed before the founding of the country, how difficult is it to kill without using official power? How could his biggest weakness, Ning Yi, the handle of the county lord, be easily let go! Moreover, once the county lord of Ningyi married into the Jiang family, Qiu Jinglan had a backer, and directly showed his identity to lobby the old men in the Zhenxi Army...... The consequences are unimaginable!

Empress Jiang's face sank when she heard this: "That Changping matter, my daughter-in-law is in charge!" "You don't let my nephew's marriage go smoothly, and don't think about this granddaughter you love the most!
