Chapter 65: The Yun Family's Daughter

The descendants of the Yun family in the past dynasties are mostly men, and there are few daughters, so whenever a daughter is born in the Yun family, it will be specially loved. Since the Yun family became the Dongyue Yun Bohou Mansion, the Yun family has only had two daughters, and these two daughters finally married the royal family and became one of the many concubines in the harem.

Yun Lao Houye, named Yun Jinfan, is the sixth generation of the Hou Ye of Dongyue Yun Bohou Mansion, in addition to the main house Yun Bohou Lady, he also accepted a few aunts, and has a total of eight sons and three daughters in his life. But except for the two sons and one daughter from the main house, the others have been separated and become side branches of the Yun family.

Yun Laohou's son-in-law is Yun Moxi's father and uncle, Yun Cangbai and Yun Cangsong, and his daughter Yun Yudie is Qian Chengyue's biological mother, who entered the palace at the age of eighteen and was canonized as a good concubine by the first emperor.

Yun Yudie was a famous talented woman in Dongyue back then, not only was she as beautiful as a fairy, clear and refined, but her talent was also gorgeous, and no one among the official ladies was unmatched, and she was the dream lover of many official children, and everyone wanted to marry her home. The first emperor is naturally one of the many admirers of Yun Yu Butterfly, and he fell in love with him at first sight and couldn't extricate himself from falling in love. Finally, when Yun Yudie reached the age of eighteen, he ordered to accept him as a concubine, give him the title of good concubine, and live in Guan Ju Palace.

After Yun Yudie entered the palace, he was favored by the first emperor. The first emperor stayed in the Guanju Palace night and night, often not early, and from then on for a long time no longer in the other concubines, until the harem resentment was everywhere, and the gossip spread throughout the Yicheng. At that time, not only the harem, but even the court was full of accusatory remarks, and some ministers pointed out that Yun Yudie was a demon girl, and asked the emperor to give her death. Even if there is no matter how powerful the Yun Bohou Mansion is, it will not be able to suppress the speech, and the old Marquis Yun back then did not want to suppress public opinion at all, but let it develop freely, unless Yun Yudie is really worried about his life.

Since then, the first emperor no longer stays in Guanju Palace night and night, and deals with court politics on time, but his favor for Yun Yu Butterfly remains the same.

In the third year of Yun Yudie's entry into the palace, he gave birth to a son for the first emperor, and the first emperor gave him the name Chengyue. Yue is the name of Dongyue's country, and the first emperor gave it the same name as the country, which shows that the love for the son of Yunyu Butterfly is far greater than that of any prince. At that time, as soon as the holy decree came out, it instantly caused an uproar, and the families of the major concubines in the harem headed by the queen jointly petitioned the emperor to take back his fate, otherwise they would die to show their determination.

The first emperor originally ignored the hundred officials, but then the matter became bigger and bigger, and two officials really crashed to death on the main hall, and the first emperor had no choice but to think of a solution and issued another holy decree.

The Holy Decree says, I am the Son of Heaven, and my Son is the Son of Heaven, the dragon among men. I gave the name 'Yue' to express my father's love and expectation for his son. Although 'Yue' is the name of our country, the son of me and the son of heaven can naturally bear this name, so I give the name Chengyue. The words of the Son of Heaven are a promise of gold, and the holy decree has been issued, how can there be any reason to take it back? I don't have more than one son under my knees, but I also love and expect from other princes. The son of the current queen, Cheng Jue is gifted and intelligent, diligent and studious, although he is only five years old, he is deeply praised by the princes, and believes that he will have extraordinary achievements in the future. As the eldest son of the emperor, Cheng Jue's performance also won my heart. Therefore, I decided to canonize the queen's son Qian Chengjue as the crown prince of Dongyue, hoping that the princes can cultivate an excellent prince for Dongyue, and hope that the hundred officials can supervise the words and deeds of the prince.

This decree was in one place, and the rhetoric of all parties immediately subsided. This decree not only showed the determination of the first emperor not to take back the name, but also gave the queen a coveted benefit, and they naturally did not interfere in this matter again.

Although the other concubines were unwilling, they also knew that if they continued, they would offend the emperor, the empress and the tripartite forces of the Yunbo Marquis Mansion, so they could only dare to be angry and dare not speak.

As for the other officials, after all, they don't really want to die, and the person who can make his will clear with death is already dead, but what is the result? The emperor did not retract his fate. After seeing that the first emperor had made up his mind, they also shut up one after another and no longer objected.

This turmoil was finally quelled by canonizing the queen's son Qian Chengjue as the crown prince.

Yun Yudie died of illness twenty-four years after entering the palace, and the first emperor decreed that he should be buried in the imperial mausoleum with the gift of the imperial concubine. The death of Yun Yudie, the first emperor was heartbroken, depressed all day long, often had nightmares at night, and could not sleep. After a long time, the first emperor's health became worse and worse, and finally died in the third year after Yun Yudie's death.

The first emperor left an edict and ordered the crown prince Qian Chengjue to inherit the throne. Grant the Yue prince Qian Chengyue the privilege of being exempt from kneeling - those who can be exempted from kneeling to inherit the throne, and the marriage privilege - can decide the choice of Princess Yue, and she can choose to stay in the imperial city or return to the fiefdom Wuyuan. The tomb of the deceased concubine will be buried with me, and the descendants shall not disturb it or change it in any name.

It can be seen from this edict that the first emperor's love for Yun Yudie's mother and son is no longer ordinarily deep. Although Yun Yudie's mother and son were deeply loved by the emperor in their lives, they also set up many enemies because of this, among which the queen's mother and son were the representatives.

……

Yun Bohou Mansion has no sisters in Yun Moxi's generation, but Yun Cangsong's second aunt has a daughter under her knees, named Yun Jinlan, who is now twenty-eight years old, and her appearance is slim and elegant, but her personality is a little rude and willful.

Yun Jinlan is the fifth lady of Yun Bohou Mansion, although she was born in a partial house, she is deeply loved by Yun Cangsong, and her eldest brother Yun Su is also very fond of her.

Yun Jinlan has hidden a secret in her heart for nearly thirteen years, and she has never told anyone about it.

Since she was a child, Yun Jinlan has fallen in love with her fourth brother - Yun Moxi. As a result, Yun Jinlan's growth history is to run behind Yun Moxi, and everyone thinks that Yun Moxi's natural appearance attracts women also makes her sister love. However, they all think that this kind of love is the simple sister's love for her brother, only Yun Jinlan knows her own thoughts, and her feelings for Yun Moxi are not as simple as brother and sister.

Although it is against the law for her sister to fall in love with her brother, she can't control her heart, besides, Yun Moxi is just her cousin, since ancient times, cousins and sisters have tied the knot everywhere, why can't she Yun Jinlan?

Yun Moxi, who has a cold temperament, was reluctant to deal with this particularly clingy little girl at first, and even hated that the other party often appeared in his sight, so he tried to avoid Yun Jinlan as much as he could, and chose to turn a blind eye to those who couldn't avoid it, but Yun Jinlan never gave up in the face of Yun Moxi's ignorance.

Whether it was Yun Jinlan wearing new clothes chasing Yun Moxi and calling 'Fourth Brother' all the time, or the various pastries and gifts carefully prepared by Yun Jinlan, or Yun Jinlan chasing Yun Moxi to recite famous poems, and holding a piano to play newly learned tunes outside the Zhuqing Courtyard, etc., all the actions that Yun Jinlan did to attract Yun Moxi's attention were directly ignored.

In the eyes of outsiders, Yun Jinlan is becoming more and more courageous and resolute. But they didn't know that they were ignored again and again, and they were left in place again and again, and they could only look at the white figure getting smaller and smaller, and they passed by again and again but never looked at each other, not even a single afterglow, in the face of these, Yun Jinlan also cried many times in private. She also told herself that she should give up, and she also secretly packed up her mood many times and planned to put it down, but after all, she couldn't match the brilliance of the other party when she met again. Yun Moxi's every move tugged at her heartstrings and made her unable to extricate herself.

More than two years have passed. The third year, a summer night changed that.

On that day, Yun Moxi didn't know what made the old marquis Yun angry, and was punished to stand under the scorching sun in the cool sun, and spoke, whoever pleaded for mercy would be punished with him, one person would stand for one more hour if he pleaded, and two people would stand for two more hours if he pleaded.

Yun Moxi stood in the courtyard, from noon to night, for five hours, without saying a word, not a drop of water, as long as the old marquis Yun did not take back the order, he has been standing stubbornly, and he is not convinced.

At the end of the day, Yun Jinlan somehow sneaked into the courtyard of the old marquis Yun, and she was still holding Yun Moxi's favorite chestnut cake in her hand.

Yun Jinlan handed the chestnut cake to Yun Moxi, but Yun Moxi still stood motionless and ignored her. Yun Jinlan saw that Yun Moxi's lips were chapped and her face was pale, and she was anxious and worried. In the end, she had no other choice, so she knelt in front of the door of the old marquis Yun, kept kowtowing, and begged the old marquis Yun to spare her fourth brother.

Although Yun Jinlan is deeply loved by Yun Cangsong, the old marquis Yun has no special love for her. In the heart of Old Marquis Yun, although he also recognized her as his granddaughter, it was nothing more. Yun Jinlan knew about Old Marquis Yun's attitude towards herself since she was a child, so she knew that only by using this method could she let the other party let her fourth brother go. Because her coquettishness and tears are useless to Old Marquis Yun.

Yun Jinlan kowtowed over and over again, not daring to be sloppy in her strength, and after a while, her skin was already broken and her flesh was blurred, but she stubbornly did not shed a single tear.

This time, Yun Moxi finally reacted to her behavior and opened her mouth to stop it, but Yun Jinlan was not obedient and still kept kowtowing. No matter how indifferent Yun Moxi was in his heart, he was moved at this moment, he couldn't watch a little girl break her head in order to intercede for herself, and finally he gave in unwillingly and admitted his mistake to Old Marquis Yun.

After leaving the courtyard of the old marquis Yun, Yun Moxi took Yun Jinlan back to his own Zhuqing Courtyard, personally gave the other party medicine, and personally sent her back to the second aunt's residence.

From then on, although Yun Moxi was not enthusiastic about Yun Jinlan, he also recognized her as a cousin, no longer turned a blind eye, and even occasionally instructed her in her homework, played against her patiently, and agreed that the other party could enter Zhuqing Courtyard at will.

That year, Yun Moxi was twelve years old, and Yun Jinlan was six years old. Now ten years have passed, Yun Jinlan's admiration for Yun Moxi has only increased. And although Yun Moxi's attitude has changed since that incident, he has always maintained a little alienation from him, and this state has not changed for ten years.
