Chapter 450: Prejudice
And Xia Mohan felt more and more hot on his face, his lips were pursed, his eyelids drooped slightly, and the emotions in his eyes were all covered under his long eyelashes, making people wonder what he was thinking.
Walking out of Shou'an Palace, Ye Xia met Ye Qingxin head-on, and before she could speak, Ye Qingxin took her hand and turned to Qifeng Palace. As for the Shou'an Palace, at this time, Xia Mohan's cold eyebrows and eyes were full of complex colors.
He looked directly at the Queen Mother, pursed his lips, and indifferently heard the low voice of the slightest temperature slowly overflowing his lips and teeth: "The queen mother has nothing to say to her son?" ”
The Queen Mother was angry in her heart, and when she heard Xia Mohan's words of hidden questioning, she was furious: "It's good, it's good!" You guys are protecting that slut one by one, and you think that the mourning family is unreasonable, and you have nothing to do, right? But what did the mourning family do wrong? You say, what did the mourning family do wrong? ”
Raising her voice, the Queen Mother looked coldly at Emperor Yongkang and King Jing Xia Mohan: "I know that you are moved by the divorced woman, even if the mourning family is extremely disdainful, they still dislike it in their hearts, call people to Shou'an Palace, and mention the matter of marrying her to you as a side concubine......"
Her eyes were locked on Xia Mohan's cold handsome face, and the Queen Mother sneered: "But that slut doesn't know what to do, she actually disobeyed the mourning family in person, and even did something to the people in the mourning palace, ignoring her like this,
Resisting the behavior of the mourning family, can't the mourning family teach a lesson or two? How many years have passed, and seeing that there has been no woman by your side, it hurts to mourn the family...... Now that someone has entered your eyes,
Naturally, the mourning family has to send people into your backyard, not to mention ...... What's more, she is a divorced woman, and she can be married to you as a side concubine by the mourning family, what an honor, I don't ask her to be grateful to the mourning family.
At least give the mourning family, the queen mother, the respect she deserves, right? She didn't, she opened her mouth to disobey the mourning family, and stepped on the kindness of the mourning family to the soles of her feet, even if the mourning family wanted her life today, it was her guilt! ”
After a slight pause, the Queen Mother seemed to have not seen the changes in the faces of Emperor Yongkang and King Jing, and said with a sneer: "What does this mean because of the great contribution to Sheji?" can only show that she did what she did,
Besides, she has been rewarded by the emperor, but no matter how you say it, she is a royal minion, and she can't jump as a royal child in terms of identity, not to mention that you are the only brother of the emperor, the prince of Daxia, she doesn't say that she is going to burn high incense, but she doesn't put you in her eyes at all, why do you say she is? ”
His gaze moved to Emperor Yongkang: "Emperor, you also tell me, why is she a divorced woman?" Could it be that King Jing is not worthy of her? ”
"Mother, can you not be so self-righteous?"
Without waiting for Emperor Yongkang to speak, Xia Mohan's face was cold, and his cold voice sounded first: "Who told you that Renguo Gong didn't put his son in his eyes, and who told you that Ren Guogong disliked his son?"
That's right, my son has a little appreciation for Renguogong, but Renguogong doesn't know about it, not the disgust in your mouth, and you don't take it seriously. Moreover, the son didn't plan to pick his mind away in front of the Duke of Renguo.
Because my son knows that there is no petty love between men and women in the eyes of Renguo Gong, she just wants to do practical things for the people of Daxia wholeheartedly, and has always been sincere to others, no matter whether the other party is a lowly farmer.
or as a son or royal brother, she always has a clean eye, treats people sincerely, and never has the slightest selfishness. But such a person, in your mouth for a while a servile shout,
A slut will be bullied for a while, queen mother, do you know how hurtful your words are? Where did he leave his son? Where is the royal brother? It was Renguo Gong who healed Mu Bai and gave Mu Bai a new life;
It is the selflessness of the Duke of Renguo, who cares about the people and presents the royal brother with a high-yield crop such as sweet potatoes, which can keep the people from starving; It was the Duke of Renguo who presented the imperial brother with the method of planting cowpox to prevent smallpox, so that the people of Daxia no longer had to worry about being killed by the epidemic of smallpox......
Just today, Ren Guogong provided the imperial brother with several high-yield crops that can satisfy the common people, as well as many fresh vegetables, melons and fruits...... Queen Mother, you are in the deep palace all year round,
For the sake of the people of Great Xia, the Duke of Keren often traveled abroad, buying such and such seeds from foreign merchants, and then trying to plant them himself, and finally took the lead in tasting the food made from the fruits of those seeds.
To be honest, the reason why I didn't show my thoughts to Ren Guogong was because I felt that I was not qualified and that I was not worthy of a good woman like Ren Guogong who had great love and was outstanding!
Don't talk about power, in my heart, feelings are equal, not power can be controlled, and I have never thought of using power to force the other party to become my woman! ”
Saying so much in one breath, this is the first time in history for Xia Mohan. After speaking, he saluted the Queen Mother and Emperor Yongkang, then turned around and left without looking back.
The Queen Mother looked at where Xia Mohan was standing just now, her expression was stunned, she sat motionless on the soft collapse, she felt that King Jing must have a grudge against her as the queen mother from now on, and felt that it would be difficult for their mother and son to regain their previous relationship......
Regret flooded her heart, however, the Queen Mother couldn't think of a suitable way for a while to save the passing mother-son relationship and eliminate the mustard born between her and King Jing.
"That's what you want, Queen Mother?"
Emperor Yongkang sighed and said slowly: "I wanted to stop talking that day, because I was worried about what you would do after you knew about it, and based on this consideration, I decided to hide it from you for the time being.
Wait for King Jing to turn around and tell you in person...... But I thought that you would secretly send someone to inquire about your news, and even thought that you would summon someone to Shou'an Palace, but I never thought of you......
You will have such a deep prejudice against the Duke of Renguo, and call the Duke of Renguo one by one and a divorced woman and a slut...... Mother, is it true that in your heart, the people of Daxia are nothing,
Otherwise, how could you verbally insult a good minister who had made great contributions to Great Xia? I might as well tell the queen mother about the contribution of the Duke of Renguo to Bactria so far,
It is not an exaggeration for me to call her a hereditary king with a different surname. Before you summoned the Duke of Renguo to Shou'an Palace today, after I noticed King Jing's thoughts, I hinted more than once,
I hope and support King Jing to marry someone into the palace, but King Jing has his own ideas, and has never been moved by me, as a brother, I feel as sorry as you for King Jing for many years, there is no woman who knows cold and hot by his side,
I thought about it and said that I would issue an order to directly give marriage to King Jing and Renguo Gong, but I was stopped by King Jing's words, and the queen mother ...... Feelings are precious, I understand that King Jing wants it to be a matter of course,
Therefore, I respected King Jing's own wishes and dismissed the idea of marriage. In addition, then again, Ren Guogong is not an ordinary woman, even if I decree marriage, with the temperament of Ren Guogong,
The ** of ten will refuse. The twisted melon is not sweet, this truth should be understood by the queen mother, now, with your whole today, if you say that King Jing may have a little bit of the possibility of marrying the Duke of Renguo into the door,
Then after today, the possibility between King Jing and Duke Renguo will definitely not exist anymore. "As far as he knows about King Jing, I'm afraid that the stinky boy will bury that unspoken feeling deep in his heart forever.
Because King Jing, his imperial brother is a very proud person, he will apologize in front of Renguo Gong, and he will definitely do this, but if he wants to show his heart in front of the other party, he probably won't think about it again.
Reason?
Not worthy!
Yes, the reason why King Jing gave him himself must be the three words "unworthy".
It's not that he himself is unworthy, it's the queen mother, the queen mother of their two brothers, today's actions will make King Jing feel unworthy of marrying Renguo Gong.
The Queen Mother's eyelids drooped and she was silent. Emperor Yongkang shook his head and continued: "Water can carry a boat and also capsize a boat, the queen mother, good ministers are rare, good ministers like Renguo Gong can be ministers,
It is even more rare for a good official who cares about the people and has great love, and I hope that the queen mother will not impulsively go to the trouble of Renguo Gong again...... It's not that I scare my mother, if one day something really happens to you because of your mother, I'm afraid that the people of Daxia will find the court for Renguo Gong and seek justice from me! ”
After the words were spoken, Emperor Yongkang accentuated his tone, and seeing that the Queen Mother was still silent, Emperor Yongkang saluted him: "The Queen Mother rests, I won't bother here." ”
Don't mention leaving, the moment he turned around, Emperor Yongkang's face was really not very good. He really didn't expect the Queen Mother to have this unreasonable side today, in Emperor Yongkang's heart,
The Queen Mother is not short of scheming means, otherwise, she would not have been born in the last harem battle, and she would not have pushed him to the throne, but today's Queen Mother is making stupid mistakes, like a shrew who has lost her calm and reason, and has repeatedly verbally insulted a good minister who is dedicated to the people and the country, which really should not appear on the Queen Mother.
"Could it be that the mourning family really did something wrong?"
The Queen Mother looked at the old lady who was standing beside her and had been with her for most of her life, her eyes were confused, and she muttered: "Xiuzhen, the original intention of the mourning family is just to let King Jing have a person who knows cold and hot by his side......"
Mama Tong's maiden name is Xiuzhen, she has served by the Queen Mother's side since she was a child, she has never married in her life, and she is the Queen Mother's most trusted mother, her eyes are becoming more and more confused, and the Queen Mother murmurs constantly:
"But...... But as soon as the mourning family thought that the Ye family was a divorced woman, and when they thought that the Ye family hooked up with the emperor of the mourning family, but hung the emperor of the mourning family on the ground, the mourning family couldn't help but be annoyed, so they summoned Shou'an Palace today, and wanted to teach the Ye family a lesson, so that she knew that the emperor who hung the mourning family was not tolerated by the mourning family. ”
Mama Tong comforted softly: "Even if the master has inappropriate words today, then the Ye family can only bear it in front of you, after all, the master is the queen mother, and her status is noble, and it is not something that others can be presumptuous in front of you."
Besides, as the master said, the master's actions are out of a motherly heart, so the Ye family can be assigned by you to His Royal Highness King Jing as a side concubine, which is a blessing that she has cultivated for eight lifetimes, how can she refuse without thinking about it,
If you want the old slave to say, this Ye clan is indeed a little ignorant. But then again, the master is to marry His Royal Highness King Jing, and the old slave feels that the master should inform His Royal Highness King Jing beforehand.
Look at what His Royal Highness King Jing means, after all, only His Royal Highness King Jing likes and nods, and the days after marriage can be lived smoothly No, and then there is one more point, the old slave said that he is not afraid of your offensiveness,
In the final analysis, the Ye family is the emperor's father-in-law, and he has made a lot of great contributions to the country and the people, you can not think about it too much, master, you have to take care of the emperor's face, you really shouldn't use 'slut' to insult the prince of Renguo......"
"The mourning family is ...... when they are in a hurry"
The Queen Mother had a weak heart, but she would never admit that she deliberately humiliated Ye Xia like that, her face changed and changed, and the Queen Mother took her eyes away from Mama Tong: "Today's matter...... King Jing will definitely be estranged from the mourning family, that is, the emperor's ...... Most likely, most of them will also be angry with the mourning family......"
Calm down, she knew that she was wrong, she shouldn't be as open-mouthed as a vulgar market woman, and she would say anything to the outside, so that the emperor and King Jing couldn't get off the stage in front of the Ye family.
But now regretting is obviously useless, she is very likely to completely ruin King Jing's good deeds, and at the same time make it difficult for the emperor to be a man in front of the Ye family in the future, the more she thinks about it, the more the Queen Mother regrets her previous impulsive actions, the more difficult it is to calm down, and the whole person looks anxious.
seemed to see what the Queen Mother was thinking, Mama Tong couldn't help but explain: "The master doesn't need to be irritable, the emperor and His Royal Highness King Jing both crawled out of your stomach, and they may be angry with you right now.
But where did the overnight feud between mother and son come from, you can relax, know how everything was originally and what will still be, the emperor and His Royal Highness King Jing will definitely be able to understand your hard work. ”
Having said that, Mama Tong doesn't have much in her heart.
Like her, who has been a slave since childhood, is naturally extremely grateful for every practical thing that Renguo Gong has done for the people of Daxia, and is grateful to Renguo Gong for this living Bodhisattva, if it weren't for being within the walls of this palace, she would even have thought about making an immortal card for Renguo Gong, kneeling down every morning and evening.
She believes that the poor people outside the palace, the ten ** have the same mind as her, and it is very likely that they have set up the immortal card of Renguo Gong at home, and kneel down in the morning and evening, in order to thank Ren Guogong for his great love.
And divorced?
Slut?
As a slave, she is not qualified to say that the master is not, but in her opinion, what about the divorce? Since the law of the imperial court allows for the word "harmony and separation", why not choose to live in her husband's house if the woman can't live in her husband's house?
How did she become a "slut" because of reconciliation and separation?
What's more, Ren Guogong and Wei Yuan Bo Shizi are reconciled, and one person raises three children alone, it stands to reason that even if the woman is reconciled, the children should stay in the man's house, but the three children of Renguo Gong went out of the house with Ren Guogong to live.
The reason for this is that Li Deshun has inquired clearly, the fault is not in Renguo Gong, it is the original Weiyuan Marquis Mansion, and the current Weiyuan Bofu is his own work, and he will make a good future housewife and three children and grandchildren.
Now up to the Mrs. Tai of Weiyuan Bofu, down to the son of Weiyuan Bo, the three generations of grandparents and grandchildren are full of regrets, however, this regret came really late, and it is difficult to recover the hearts of the four mothers of Renguo who were hurt all over the body.
Knowing from Luo Fukou that Ye Xia was taken to Qifeng Palace from outside Shou'an Palace by the queen as soon as he left Shou'an Palace, Emperor Yongkang couldn't help but have a toothache for a moment, knowing that he had to go to Qifeng Palace, and it must be gone now, otherwise, the queen would have to have a cold war with him for ten days and eight days, and he would not be able to do it longer.
So, Emperor Yongkang was going to go to the imperial study to change his footsteps and walk towards Qifeng Palace, but he didn't think about it, he didn't see Ye Xia's figure when he walked into Qifeng Palace, and the queen was sitting in danger, as if she was waiting for him to arrive.
With a wry smile in his heart, Emperor Yongkang stepped forward and sat down next to the queen, wanting to hold the queen's hand and explain the matter simply, clinker, Ye Qingxin suddenly got up, moved to the other side of the dwarf, and looked at Emperor Yongkang with twisted eyebrows: "The concubines must listen to the truth, and please don't deceive the emperor." ”
A light smile appeared on Emperor Yongkang's handsome face, and he raised his eyebrows and asked, "Ren Guogong didn't tell the queen?" ”
He asked this on purpose. "The emperor asked the concubine like this, didn't he think that the concubine's sister, your good courtier is a complainant?"
Emperor Yongkang was amused by the "complaint essence" in the queen's mouth, and unexpectedly exchanged the queen's knife: "The concubine is talking to the emperor about the topic very seriously now, can the emperor be serious?" ”
Touching his nose, Emperor Yongkang cleared his throat again, and continued to tell Ye Qingxin truthfully about why the Queen Mother summoned Ye Xia for her assertion.
"Finger marriage? The Queen Mother wants to marry Xia Xia to King Jing as a side concubine? Your Majesty, it's not going to be that simple, is it? The concubine has eyes, and at the moment when Xia Xia walked out of Shou'an Palace, although the expression on her face was not obvious, the concubine could see that Xia Xia was definitely in a bad mood.
Besides, can the emperor tell the concubine why the queen mother pointed out the concubine's sister to King Jing as a side concubine? Although the concubine's sister is reconciled with her husband's family, this does not mean that the concubine's sister is willing to be a concubine, even if she is the side concubine of King Jing, she can't deny that she is a concubine in the backyard. ”
Ye Qingxin's face was cold, and she looked directly into Emperor Yongkang's eyes, not giving the other party time to make up lies: "If the emperor dares to deceive the concubines, don't want to step into the concubines in the Qifeng Palace from now on!" ”
"Okay, okay, I'm afraid of you, but you promise not to get angry with me, and listen to me quietly."
Emperor Yongkang raised his hands and surrendered, for the queen, for this beloved woman, he really couldn't take the other party.
Ye Qingxin pursed her lips and nodded: "The emperor said it, the concubines only listened and didn't intervene." ”
Emperor Yongkang was looked at directly by Ye Qingxin, and he didn't know how to speak for a while, and after a while, he took a deep breath and made Xia Mohan feel moved by Ye Xia, but he intuitively told him that the other party had no intention of treating him,
can only suppress that heartbeat, and the queen mother guessed something from his previous desire to speak and stop, and secretly inquired that King Jing had a mind about Ye Xia, so that it ended today at the court meeting,
Someone summoned Ye Xia to Shou'an Palace to meet him, and said that he wanted to marry Ye Xia to King Jing as a side concubine, but Ye Xia bluntly refused, and he couldn't help but say a few heavy words to Ye Xia when he was angry, and he said it again.
Ye Qingxin's expression changed and changed significantly in Emperor Yongkang's narration, and when Emperor Yongkang's voice fell, her long eyelashes drooped slightly, her lips pursed and she was silent for a long time, and Fang raised her eyes to look at Emperor Yongkang:
King Jing liked Xia Xia, but found that Xia Xia had no intention of treating him, so he held back his feelings and did not explain his thoughts in front of Xia Xia, and then the Queen Mother said in a conversation with the emperor, to be precise,
When I was talking to you about King Jing's marriage, I saw that you had concealed it from King Jing, so I went to inquire outside the palace and learned that King Jing was interested in the concubine's sister, and then summoned the concubine's sister to Shou'an Palace today.
Because the concubine's sister refused the queen mother's marriage, the queen mother's words to the concubine's sister couldn't help but be ugly, your majesty, is that right? ”
Emperor Yongkang nodded: "That's roughly the way things are. ”
Ye Qingxin's words were clear and coherent, and because of this, her face turned cold: "The emperor said a few heavy words to the concubine's sister, and this heavy word is very unpleasant......
So let the concubine guess what the queen mother may have said to the concubine's sister, such as not knowing what to do, and then being presumptuous, not knowing the height of the sky...... The queen mother can't get up and down, and it's not impossible to directly scold the concubine's sister for being a slut, your majesty, you say that these speculations of the concubine are ......"
Emperor Yongkang didn't let Ye Qingxin continue, he cut off softly: "Xin'er, the queen mother said a few heavy words to the Duke of Renguo, but that was also angry, at that time, I helped the Duke of Renguo to fall behind the queen mother, and after the Duke of Renguo left, King Jing said the queen mother in one breath, don't be angry, okay?" ”
"Angry? Why should concubines be angry? ”
Ye Qingxin smiled, her smile was as elegant as a lotus: "What kind of person is the concubine's sister, the concubine knows it in her heart, and I believe that those who know the concubine's sister are also clear in her heart, since everyone knows it, what should I do to get along with myself, and take some people's unfair words to the concubine's sister to heart?" ”
Ye Qingxin is not very good at coaxing people to be happy, based on this, in the Queen Mother, she likes the former concubine, and the deceased sinner Cen is better than she likes Ye Qingxin, the queen, Ye Qingxin has long been clear in her heart, although she feels a little wronged, but she is not angry, she just does what she should do as a queen with peace of mind, so that the Queen Mother can't find the slightest mistake.
But what annoyed Ye Qingxin was that the Ye family was wronged before, she and the prince were deposed, and the queen mother did not say a word in front of the emperor for the Ye family and the prince, but in the case of the Cen family.
When the Cen family was sent to the cold palace and the three princes were demoted to concubines and confined, they came forward in person, hoping that the emperor would be lenient on the Cen family and the concubine Cen family's mother and son.
It's a pity that the emperor didn't sell the face of the queen mother, and the queen mother was so angry that she refused to see the emperor for a while. But Rao is like this, she is still annoyed by the Queen Mother's actions. Do not speak for the family and sons and grandchildren of the righteous children,
The Cen family and the noble concubine Cen mother and son, who were so eccentric that they were conclusive, pleaded in front of the emperor, and if this matter was spread outside the palace, it would inevitably become a topic of conversation among the people.
"Xin'er, the queen mother is getting older, and it is inevitable that she will be confused when things happen, I know that there is something wrong with the queen mother's actions today, and she shouldn't say anything serious to Renguo Gong, but after all, it is my queen mother, you just look at my face, don't give birth to the queen mother?"
"How dare the concubine!"
"Look, you're still angry! To tell the truth, Ren Guogong did not suffer a loss in Shou'an Palace, I don't believe that you can ask her in person when you see Ren Guogong another day. ”
"The concubine's sister behaves rightly, walks straight, sits upright, and behaves uprightly, and others slander the concubine's sister with them, and the concubine knows that the concubine's sister has a clear conscience."
"Yes, yes, what the queen said is right, Renguo Gong is good, no matter what others say, it will not have the slightest bad impact on Renguo Gong."
