Chapter 10: The Sorrowful Princesses

Qiu Yulan believes that although he doesn't know anything about the details of Guo Qingwu, Jiang Yashuang definitely knows it.

Sure enough, Su He handed over the news, Jiang Yashuang turned over the back window familiarly, and Qiu Yulan, who had already sent off his subordinates, was waiting anxiously - the two flirted and scolded a few words as usual, and Qiu Yulan pinched his arm: "To be serious, what is the origin of Qingwu, why should you be embarrassed by my cousin?" I don't think the Kuang family owes the Ruan family, right? ”

Jiang Yashuang pointed to the empty tea bowl in front of him, and when Qiu Yulan pouted the corner of his mouth, he poured a cup of tea for him, got up and took a sip again, and then said comfortably: "Shengmi Endou Mi Qiu, the Guo family's mood towards the Ruan family is about like this." ”

"It's strange that people say that the apprentices of the church starve to death the master." The more Qiu Yulan thought about it, the more he felt sorry for General Ruan, "I really don't know how this kind of person is in charge of the Zhenxi Army, and he has no conscience for the officials who have worked hard to cultivate him, so his subordinates are not afraid that they will also be betrayed by him?" ”

Jiang Yashuang was stunned for a moment, and then suddenly realized: "I didn't make it clear to you last time, General Ruan's favor to Shi Han is not as simple as a simple cultivation grace!" "The last time the two talked about the situation, Shi Han didn't say a few words, and then he turned to the big head industry where the Xihe Wangfu was gone, and then they quarreled - he didn't finish at all.

So the relationship between Guo Shihan and General Ruan Qiu Yulan is also half-understood, and Jiang Yashuang explained to her at this moment, "This Guo Shihan's father used to be the robe of General Ruan, but that one had a short life, and Guo Shihan died on the battlefield when he was less than six years old, to say that this situation is also a cold family - although Guo Shihan's father died in battle, he also had some status during his lifetime, and he saved a lot of furniture, plus the imperial court's pension, it was enough for him to grow up without worrying about food and clothing......"

But it has only been a year since his father was buried, and his mother eloped with someone with Xiaosoft, and there has been no news so far! His uncles, because his mother swept away almost all the property, and the rest of the calculation was to raise him upside down, but he was unwillingβ€”in the end, General Ruan was angry and took him over and raised him like his own son! ”

Qiu Yulan was dumbfounded and said: "Such kindness, this surname actually did something to cut down the grass and eradicate the roots of the Ruan family?!" ”

In vain, she thinks she has no discipline, but now she knows that there are people outside the world! Not to mention the great grace of being raised and cultivated by General Ruan Shihan like Guo Shihan, it is Ruan Qingyan, Su He, and Zhou's mother, so that Qiu Yulan can't sell them now!

"Sure enough, brutes are non-existent, they are everywhere!" Thinking about the hearts of people who were revealed in those times of crisis in his previous life, Qiu Yulan sighed secretly.

Jiang Yashuang was obviously very disdainful of Shi Han: "That is, most of the generals in the Zhenxi Army are people who take care of the overall situation, when General Ruan Lao was calculated, he was defeated and lost in the battle with the Ximan, and was escorted back to Beijing for questioning - at that time, your father died in battle, and there was only one person left who could preside over the Zhenxi Army, if you don't listen to him, then the Xiban will really fight in the territory of Da Rui!" I heard from my grandfather that many of the generals in the Zhenxi army would have been willing to kill Shi Han, but they had to be under his command...... At that time, the generals who revealed such thoughts were deliberately sent to death by Shi Shihan......"

He smiled mockingly, "That's why I said before that Shi Han and Empress Dowager Gu didn't dare to fully trust the Zhenxi Army. Because in order to seize power as soon as possible, Shi Han wantonly murdered the generals who sympathized with General Ruan, and then many generals defected to him in order to protect themselves - but who knows if these people are really towards him, or are they afraid of being poisoned by him, and deliberately false and wronged? ”

β€œβ€¦β€¦ My grandfather was so miserable that he met such a white-eyed wolf! Qiu Yulan sighed and said faintly, "You mean, then Shi Han plans to make the Ruan family extinct again?" Okay, his dark heart? ”

Speaking of this, her tone couldn't help but be a little colder!

Jiang Yashuang groaned: "If you are the heir, it shouldn't be, with Brother Ruan's means, normally speaking, he won't give him such an opportunity!" But it is estimated that he wants to cut off the future of Brother Ruan's career - after all, he is a thief, even if Brother Ruan is now taking the path of a civilian official, he will not go to the Zhenxi Army to compete with him or anything if nothing happens, but he owes so much to General Ruan in his heart, and seeing the Ruan family as officials in the court, it is estimated that it is always not solid. ”

Qiu Yulan sneered: "Since he has done so many things that are unconscionable, he still wants to be honest?" I don't think he's even able to collapse when he's dead! ”

"If you have a chance, you can't let him live!" Jiang Yashuang said with a smile, "But he's really not easy to deal with now." ”

"Speaking of which...... You just watched my cousin being bullied by that Qingwu? Qiu Yulan squinted at him.

This kind of moment of determination, Jiang Yashuang couldn't miss it - even if he was still thinking about it the day before if Ruan Qingyan couldn't stand Guo Qingwu's provocation and avoided the capital, but in front of Qiu Yulan, he didn't hesitate: "How is that possible?!" I'm in the Guozijian now, and as soon as Qingwu comes in, I'll keep it as long as he wants. Immortal. Desire. Dead, too busy to take care of yourself, and still want to disturb Brother Ruan's filial piety?! ”

"It is said that he wants to sneak into Beijing...... Bullied my cousin first and then went to Guozijian? Qiu Yulan was not very satisfied with this attitude.

Jiang Yashuang smiled when she heard this: "Where did you hear this news?" Unless the whole Guo family is dizzy, they will let Guo Qingwu quietly enter Beijing - I tell you, I don't know if it is because of the revenge suffered by Han En, he has a lot of backyards, even after the eldest princess of Xingkang, there are no fewer prostitutes and concubines, but the heirs are extremely thin! That situation Qingwu is his only seedling, if he moves quietly, he will be accidentally killed on the way...... How can you stand the cold! ”

Qiu Yulan heard what he meant: If Qingwu dares to enter Beijing quietly, the Jiang family will let him die quietly!

"It looks like I was deceived by the Yang family!" She pouted, and was about to say something, when she suddenly thought of something and said in surprise, "This is Qingwu...... How big? ”

Jiang Yashuang didn't care and said, "It seems to be a few years older than me...... It must have been crowned, but it may not have arrived. ”

"So, he didn't come from the eldest princess of Xingkang?" Qiu Yulan asked in surprise, "I remember that the eldest princess of Xingkang is the widow of the first emperor?" He was only seventeen years old when he was cold, and he was only fifteen or sixteen years away? ”

"Of course not." Jiang Yashuang bowed, "Guo Shihan is several years older than the eldest princess of Xingkang, before the eldest princess descended to him, Guo Qingwu landed - at that time, Guo Shihan had not yet married a wife, so he was fostered outside, and he didn't even give his surname at first, and then he was still the lord, accepted a concubine, and never gave birth to children, so he had to recognize him back, as if because of this, there was a gap between Guo Qingwu and Shi Han. ”

Qiu Yulan snorted: "This person has no conscience for his benefactor, and it is not strange that he is irresponsible to his son. ”

Thinking that these things were all made by the Empress Dowager Gu, she couldn't help but sneer, "The Empress Dowager Gu is also reluctant, and the biological flesh and blood of less than twenty-nine Xu has a cold temperament and an old reckless man, and as soon as she passes the door, she will be a stepmother, and the eldest princess of Xingkang is a golden branch and jade leaf, and she doesn't know what it feels like to catch up with such an ambitious queen mother!" ”

Jiang Yashuang smiled lightly and said, "Do you think that the eldest princess of Xingkang is miserable?" She is still the eldest princess, don't forget that she is also the daughter of the queen mother, and Princess Changping, who descended to Tang Dan, the son of Tang Zimo, doesn't even have the title of eldest princess! ”

Qiu Yulan was surprised: "You didn't say that I didn't notice that Tang Danshang's one was just a princess - why?" ”

"The eldest princess of Xingkang has no children because of the shallow relationship between the children and the poor situation; Princess Changping was able to give birth, but it was a pity that she gave birth to five daughters in a row, and the Tang family was so anxious that they discussed with her about taking a concubine...... Do you think that whether it is Xingkang or Changping, these two are the biological daughters of the Empress Dowager Gu, and they are pampered, where are they willing? ”

Jiang Yashuang said this, picked up the tea bowl and drank tea to moisten her throat, and Qiu Yulan said: "I don't know in Princess Changping's mansion, but on the side of Princess Xingkang, didn't you say that there were no concubines after Lord Shihan?" ”

"Besides, Shi Han holds the power of the Zhenxi Army, and he is the indispensable arm of the Empress Dowager Gu to contend with our Jiang family, and he respects the eldest princess of Xingkang on his face, how can he really be subdued by the eldest prince?" Jiang Yashuang smiled lightly and said, "And on Empress Dowager Gu's side, apart from him, there are really no generals who can handle it...... The queen mother's personality, how could she have a fight with him for a few concubines? ”

Speaking of which, in the eyes of Empress Dowager Gu, the happiness of her own daughter is not as important as her own ambition.

But it is not surprising that this person probably sees his son as a necessary condition for his regent. That is to say, Queen Jiang and the Jiang family are more fierce than one another, otherwise they would have been unloaded and killed by the donkey, and they would have followed in the footsteps of the old General Ruan!

"What about Princess Changping?" Qiu Yulan was puzzled, "Could it be that because Princess Changping is not allowed to take concubines, the Queen Mother cut off her title of eldest princess in order to win over the Tang family, and only let her be a princess?" "That's too low-minded, isn't it? How can there be a little bit of royal majesty?

Jiang Yashuang said with a smile: "Although it is said that the Empress Dowager Gu also privately persuaded Princess Changping to agree to take a concubine, it is a big deal to go to the mother and keep the son...... But it is impossible for her to please the Tang family so much. The title of eldest princess was cut by my fourth aunt. ”

Qiu Yulan was relieved: "I'll just say it!" ”

Curious again, "Just to stop the concubine, it shouldn't be able to cut the title of the eldest princess of Princess Changping?" ”

Jiang Yashuang said: "That's right, but who let Princess Changping push her mother-in-law aggrieved, causing Tang Dan's mother to fall down the steps?" Although nothing major happened, it was still disrespectful to the elders. ”

Qiu Yulan pursed the corners of his lips: "God knows if it was really pushed down, or on purpose!" "Princess Changping gave birth to five daughters to Tang Dan at that time, what kind of temper, the in-laws are not clear?

Knowing that she would not agree to take a concubine, she couldn't ignore her opinion because of her status as a princess - she was provoked to do something and take advantage of the situation, even if Queen Jiang didn't fall into the well and demoted her eldest princess title, Empress Dowager Gu would allow her concubine on behalf of her daughter in order to appease the Tang family.

This poor princess of Changping was most likely cheated by her mother-in-law's family.

"This is probably only known to the Tang family." Jiang Yashuang heard the faint sympathy for Princess Changping in her tone, and said, "At that time, Empress Dowager Gu stuffed a lot of people in my fourth aunt's palace...... My fourth aunt is also upright, but it just so happens that Princess Changping's matter is in her hands, isn't it? ”

It turned out to be angry - there is such a selfish mother, it is really an indescribable bitter tear!

Qiu Yulan asked with emotion: "What about Tang Dan now?" ”

"Of the three sons, none of them were born to Princess Changping." Jiang Yashuang said with a smile, "But the biological mother is gone, and they are all raised under the princess's knees." ”

"So what's so good about being a woman these days?" Qiu Yulan was silent for a while, and said resentfully, "Before I left the pavilion, I learned to take care of the family business, female red needlework, and treat people...... In short, piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, hops, firewood, rice, oil, salt, sauce, vinegar, tea, or elegant or vulgar must come - after a sedan chair passed the door, conscientiously served the family, saw the sky to be a cow and a horse, and lost a smile everywhere, maybe he would be picked on this and that...... In the middle, you have to be able to give birth, that's it, and it may not be able to stop her husband from looking for flowers and willows! You can't be wronged yet! If you are wronged, you are not generous enough and not virtuous enough, and you are jealous of the seven outs......"

When Jiang Yashuang heard this, she also said resentfully: "It's as if you have suffered so many grievances, and I don't want to think about it, how many beatings I have beaten your brothers and sisters in the past two years - is this still me carefully serving all day long?" If I really neglected you, I still had to beat me to death? That's what I need to say! I'm the one who has been wronged and full of bitter tears, and I don't know who or who, okay? ”

"Oh, who do you want to cry to?" Not surprisingly, Qiu Yulan's resentful color was retracted, grabbed his ear, and asked with a hideous face, "I can't see that you still have a confidante hiding a cinnabar mole and white moonlight, right?!" Say! Who is it?!!! ”
