As soon as July passed in a blink of an eye, as far as Jingzhong was concerned, the biggest news of the month was that Jiang Tianhe, the Duchess of Eguo, was sentenced to three months of grounding and demoting one level of edict because she almost forced Miss Chen to death.

It was the first time that the Xin family, the emerging descendants, had suffered this kind of blow in the past two years, and the whole thing seemed a little confused!

Jiang Tianhe tried to see him in front of the palace gate at first, but he waited for a long time to wait for Lady Lin, and as soon as he came out, he scolded the guards guarding the palace gate - but it was not to blame them for daring to prevent Jiang Tianhe from entering the palace, but: "Haven't you heard of Niangniang's edict?!" Seeing the people who disobeyed Yi's decree appear in front of the palace gate in a grand manner, they didn't even know how to drive people back to the other courtyard? ! ”

"......" Jiang Tianhe is like being poured a basin of cold water in 39 days!

Not only that, but after she was sent back to the other courtyard in a daze, her husband and son were immediately summoned into the palace, and they were scolded by the Empress Dowager Jiang, and finally said: "...... If you commit another offense, the mourning family will ask you for the crime of not being strict with your wife and not persuading your mother!! ”

Now the Xin family doesn't dare to slack off, Jiang Tianhe is the daughter of the Jiang family, or the only daughter of Lao Jibei Hou and Old Lady Ou, Qin Guogong and Old Lady Ou are still alive, she is a rebel and has hope of surviving - but the rest of the Xin family does not have this kind of treatment!

I think the Tao family was still Mrs. Tao's maiden family back then, where are those nephews and nephews of Mrs. Tao now?

Jiang Tianhe's husband and son took the lead, and the whole family knelt in front of the door and begged Jiang Tianhe to stop: "You are not afraid, but in case the Queen Mother does what she says, she will be angry with us......"

In this case, what else can Jiang Tianhe do except be grounded obediently?

However, she was grounded in the summer retreat of Dizi Mountain at this time, and at the beginning of August, the weather turned cooler, and the emperor was going to return to Beijing with the Queen Mother. The Xin family discussed this issue several times, but they were not sure, so they had to ask their daughter-in-law Zhao to ask for an audience.

When Empress Dowager Jiang saw Zhao's request to see him, she also guessed what the reason was, snorted, and instructed Lady Lin: "You can show it to the queen!" ”

Lady Lin reminded: "Although Niangniang warned the Xin family fiercely last time, they have been pampered for a long time. If it's you who sees you this time, I'm afraid I won't dare to do anything. If you see the queen and rely on your sister-in-law, you may be emboldened and make all kinds of requests to the queen! ”

Mrs. Jiang said expressionlessly: "The mourning family believes that the queen is not a foolish person!" ”

Lady Lin didn't say much.

The queen received the order to let her meet with the Zhao family, and couldn't help frowning: "Sister-in-law asks to see?" Just asked, "Is there anything going on with the Xin family lately?" ”

"Back to my mother, since my wife went back, I haven't heard of anything happening."

“…… Then let my sister-in-law enter the palace tomorrow in the afternoon! The queen thought for a while, sighed and said - she was a little worried, her sister-in-law was ordered by her mother, and wanted to take the opportunity of returning to Beijing to ask her mother for intercession, so as to lift the punishment for her.

"Mother did too much this time, even I made a fuss in front of my mother, not only went to ask my mother for my guilt, but also invited the Chen family into the palace to make personal compensation, isn't it......" The queen felt tired when she thought about it, "Where can I go to my mother to intercede again?" ”

Moreover, the excerpt that the Zhao family asked to see was given to the Queen Mother, and the Queen Mother not only transferred it to herself, but also did not say how to deal with it, which made it clear that she should not be partial to her mother's family!

"I hope my sister-in-law can be reasonable!" The queen hoped for it.

The next day, the Zhao family cautiously entered the palace - the conversation between the two sisters-in-law went very well, and after the dismissal, they said in their hearts, in fact, neither of them agreed with Jiang Tianhe's domineering, and they both thought that after this incident, the Xin family was still a little more restrained.

Thinking about the dispute between the two queens of the year, the people of the Gu family and the Jiang family were afraid of the other party's checks and balances and did not dare to do whatever they wanted, and now the Xin family has not reached the position of being able to fight with the Jiang family on an equal footing, and the degree of arrogance is better than that of the Gu family back then, this time it was just beaten, if it is not changed, God knows what will wait for next time!

"It's good that my sister-in-law knows these truths, and I hope that I can persuade my mother more when I get along with me when I go back!" The queen was very emotional, because she was sent to Beijing in her early years, the first time she saw this sister-in-law was when she was about to marry into the palace, she didn't get along much. After becoming the queen, with Jiang Tianhe in front, the Zhao family naturally didn't dare to disturb the sister-in-law with her mother-in-law, so the two were actually not familiar with each other.

After today's deep talk, I realized that they were quite in love.

The queen couldn't help but persuade the Zhao family to persuade the Xin family, "After all, the Xin family is now a duke, and it can be regarded as a supreme minister, if you are not satisfied with such wealth, you may invite disaster!" ”

Zhao thinks so, but she has her difficulties: "I was free in the past, and I tried to say it." However, my mother didn't like it, and my husband also ridiculed me for being cowardly, which ...... "Jiang Tianhe's mother and son couldn't listen to her, and she couldn't do anything."

“…… Anyway, please do your best sister-in-law! "I know too well what kind of virtuous queen my own mother is, and now I hear my sister-in-law say this, so I don't feel congested, and I said disheartenedly, "As for whether to bring my mother when I return to Beijing, I can't be the master of this matter, I have to ask the queen mother!" ”

Zhao heard that he was afraid that he would not be able to get this answer today, so he got up and retired.

After she left, the queen went to find the Empress Dowager Jiang, told her what had happened, and then asked the Empress Dowager Jiang to adjudicate.

The Queen Mother looked at her: "What do you think?" ”

"The daughter-in-law is up to the queen mother!" The queen bowed her head and said.

"The previous incident was too unpleasant, and the whole of Dizi Mountain was full of excitement." Empress Dowager Jiang said lightly, "If you meet you when you go back, I'm afraid that the discussion that has been pushed down will float again." ”

Seeing that the queen didn't speak, she continued, "So the mourning family thinks it's better to let her stay on the emperor's mountain for three months before going back." ”

"Yes!" The queen accepted the order very calmly - this made the queen mother bow slightly: "The mourning family knows that you are embarrassed by this, after all, you are a daughter...... Someone from the mourning family will tell the Xin family about this for you! ”

He also said, "Don't think that the mourning family is sweeping your face repeatedly, this is actually for your mother and the good of the Xin family!" If it weren't for the mourning father's father and your grandmother, I am afraid that there would not have been even this warning! ”

"Daughter-in-law understands!" The queen smiled slightly bitterly: Compared with the Tao family back then, the treatment of the Xin family this time can really be said to be very gentle.

Merely......

Jiang Tianhe's words were suddenly remembered: "...... Now that the Queen Mother is here, you, the queen, can't speak at all in political affairs! If Shao'er marries the daughter of the Jiang family again, won't it make the Jiang family prosperous forever, and your children and grandchildren will be puppets for the Jiang family?! ”

"In the future, don't mention the words of Hui Ying and Hui Bao when they enter the palace to accompany Shao'er!" After the queen retired, when she returned to her palace, she thought with a lot of thoughts, "Who should I choose for Shao'er, so that he can hopefully get rid of the end of being a disguise?" ”

At this time, she happened to be in front of the palace, and the palace maid greeted her and reminded her: "Niangniang, count the days, the wife of the general of Zhenxi is about to give birth, should we prepare a reward immediately after returning to Beijing?" ”

"Ou Qinglan?!" The queen's eyes suddenly lit up, "That's right! If she gives birth to a daughter......"

She quickly calculated in her heart: First of all, in order to ensure that the Jiang family will continue to be regent, they will definitely not agree to Chu Shao marrying a girl who has nothing to do with them! And the great-grandchildren of the Jiang family, even if they are only up to now, there are many girls who are the same age as Chu Shao, and there will definitely not be the same embarrassment as when they got married today, because the Jiang family has no suitable unmarried daughter, they can only let their granddaughter go.

Secondly, Qiu Jinglan and his wife have a very special identity, they are currently regarded as part of the Jiang family's forces, Qiu Jinglan, the general of Zhenxi, was officially inaugurated by Qin Guogong's speech, and Ou Qinglan is a third-generation member of the Jiang family's party. Whether it is their background or personal relationship with the Jiang family, if their daughter marries Chu Shao, it is unlikely that the Jiang family will react violently.

After all, there are Jiang Yashuang and his wife as a buffer - especially the queen believes that if Qiu Jinglan's daughter also wants to be the queen, Qiu Yulan will be very likely to help: for Qiu Jinglan's love for her sister back then, Qiu Yulan should also have such a return!

Third, Qiu Jinglan holds the power of the army! This is very important - this directly determines that he has the capital to be able to sing against the Jiang family! Unlike the Xin family, no matter how loud the noise is in the court, as soon as the Jiang family takes it seriously, they will be beaten back to their original form immediately!

"Since Qiu Jinglan loves her sister very much, how can she not love her own flesh and blood? How can he sit back and watch his daughter and son-in-law's lives hang in the balance?! If he is a counterbalance to the Jiang family......"

The Jiang family can no longer cover the sky with one hand, and Chu Shao's safety can be guaranteed!

"If Shao'er is smart in the future and adjusts in the middle, maybe he can really be pro-government!" The queen is like a drowning person grasping a straw - although she knows that if Qiu Jinglan can't pass this level now, the so-called Zhenxi General is just a joke, let alone fighting against the Jiang family! Even if he passes this level, it's hard to say whether Ou Qinglan's baby is a daughter, and if he really gives birth to a daughter, he may not be willing to give it to Chu Shao......

Despite the difficulties in the middle, the queen finally saw the dawn of her son's fate to get rid of the first emperor and today!

It's just that the queen, who is full of fighting spirit to plan for her son's future, doesn't know that at this moment, Wangcheng is temporarily packed out as the mansion where the general and his wife of Zhenxi are staying, and it is quiet.

Inside the heavy curtains, Qiu Jinglan was hugging his wife, who was crying tired, and fell asleep on his chest.

…… Ou Qinglan was born prematurely more than two months ago, she was found to be pregnant at the beginning of the year, and she was really pregnant at the end of last year - at that time, it was already nearly six months of fetus. There is a saying that seven lives and eight are not alive, and it is a month away from seven months of pregnancy, and the couple still has a glimmer of hope in their hearts, but the woman who has already taken shape. The baby ran out of breath from the moment it landed.

For more than two months, Ou Qinglan had to wake up from her sleep crying almost every day......

Originally, she married far away from Shazhou, and she didn't have any acquaintances except for the maid. When she withdrew from Shazhou to Wangcheng, the situation was very urgent, and Qiu Jinglan was gathering the remnants and breaking the organization along the way, so she had no time to take care of her. She managed to rush into Wangcheng under the cover of a maid who grew up since she was a child.

The last maid blocked an arrow for her under the city, and after being robbed into the city, she swallowed her last breath in her arms because she could not find the doctor in time due to the chaos of the situation. Now the people who serve her are all temporarily drawn from the families of the soldiers, and they can work, but they can't talk to her.

The child is sad, and the husband and wife can only cry when the husband returns.

"Is Madame still sad?" After a long time, Qiu Jinglan hugged his wife to the couch, covered her with a quilt, and quietly withdrew.

When he went outside, he saw Ren Ziyong standing under the porch with his sleeves folded, waiting for him.

"Hmm." Qiu Jinglan was also in a bad mood at the moment, so she only nodded lightly and asked, "Why is Mr. here?" But what's the matter? ”

He saw that Ren Ziyong wanted to speak and stopped, frowned, and lowered his voice, "Uncle Zhenbei? ”
