Chapter 525: House Arrest Her, Why?
Recently, the third prince was very irritable, because after the last Dengzhou incident, a group of people under his hands were faintly dissatisfied with him.
Before he could pacify and regain a city, Emperor Yufeng fell ill.
Taking advantage of the opportunity of the Chinese New Year, Emperor Yufeng returned the power of the harem to Empress Zhao, and Empress Zhao miraculously got better.
As a result, the entire harem is now in the hands of Empress Zhao.
If the noble concubine wants to serve the sick, she has to follow the list of Queen Zhao, and she can't see her once in three or five days.
At this time, the news that Jiang Shuhua was named the crown prince came over.
"Lord Wang, this is an extraordinary time, perhaps, it's time to use extraordinary means!"
Hearing the words of the staff, the third prince was a little irritable, "What other means can you use now! The prince is very wary of me now!"
"As long as the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division is in our hands, there is still hope," the staff lowered their voices, "The prince's biggest reliance is the Zhao family and the Zhang family, but the Qi family has been dancing happily recently, so it's better to start from this place."
Hearing this, the third prince's eyes narrowed, "Qi family......
Isn't that the grandfather's house of the new prince Liangdi?
According to her information, this Qi family is bent on getting on the prince's ship.
"This king suddenly remembered that this king had a good relationship with Jiang Liangdi in the past!"
The three princes and their staff are all actively planning secret matters, and the crown prince is not soft at all.
For a while, the busiest place became the Metropolitan Procuratorate, and for a while this official was sensitized, and for a while that official was arrested.
King Chen was not in the capital, and Huang Zicheng didn't dare to relax at all, not because he wanted to do anything, but because he was afraid that if he was not careful, Jinyiwei would be involved.
Jin Yiwei was busy over there, so Xie Songhua was no longer able to command at will, for fear of delaying their serious business.
But the house can't leave her, and she can't run there twice in three days.
Although she heard from Xiaoqing that the tail was still followed from time to time, she couldn't care about it, so she simply opened a secret door in the small courtyard to Xiao Yu's house next to her.
The grievances between the Qi family and the Zhao family really did not affect the attitude of the East Palace towards the Qi family much on the bright side, but Jiang Shuhua was promoted to Liangdi, but the Xie family did not say anything, and only received a congratulatory gift from the Qi family.
Even the letter she sent to Xie's house did not receive any reply.
The Qi family was miserable, and he didn't dare to say more.
Old Madam Xie saw her unhappy appearance, and knew what was on her mind.
After taking the junior away, he pulled down his face, "Because Jiang Shuhua has become the prince of the East Palace, I can't say a lot of things, but at this time, I have to say it."
You are the daughter-in-law of my Xie family, a member of the Xie family, and you have forgotten the truth that everything is important to your husband's family?"
The Qi family was also doing their best in front of the old lady during this time, and they never expected to be reprimanded by the old lady like this, and they couldn't help but turn pale, "Mother, how could the daughter-in-law forget this."
"In that case, you should know what you are going to do and what not to do at this time? Mao Cai has already told me in detail, the current situation of the Holy Lord is unclear, there will be a fight between the two parties, and my Xie family must not be involved in it."
Qi's face became more and more pale, looking at the old lady's face, gritting his teeth, and simply taking this opportunity to say, "Mother, if you don't participate now, you won't have a chance to participate in the future.
Think about it, now that the queen is in charge of the harem, there is not only the Zhao family in the East Palace, but also Zhang Shoufu, and there is also a British duke! The prince himself is a son-in-law, but orthodox, now let's not take the opportunity of Shu'er in the East Palace to get close to the prince, and when the matter is settled, where is there a place for our Xie family in this first-class family in the capital?"
Not to mention the Qi family, in fact, this was originally the old lady's own consideration.
But her son has already made it clear to her, and she knows in her heart that the more times like this, the more taboo she can't have the same heart for the whole family.
"How much insight can you have as a woman in the house? Can't the men outside see clearly in the court? No matter how your husband is
is stupid, she has been up and down in officialdom for 20 years, and she is the second assistant of the cabinet, is she not as good as you are a woman?"
"Mother!" Qi was anxious when he heard this, "But ......"
"That's it!" The old lady raised her hand, "Don't say it again, if Jiang Liangdi sends you something again, I will directly let the porter detain it, and then only say that you are not feeling well, and you will stay at home and don't move around during this time."
Qi Shi was stunned for a moment, what did she mean that she was unwell and not suitable to move around?
Is this what it means to put her under house arrest?
Why?
As if seeing the dissatisfaction in her heart, Old Madam Xie sneered, "I know that you are reluctant to give up that Jiang Liangdi in your heart, if I don't look at you, I don't know what you will do."
I will take care of the inner house of your husband, so I will have to be careful."
Saying that, she thought of her difficult in-laws again, and her eyebrows were dyed with disgust, "And your mother's family, fortunately, you go to the letter to explain it yourself!" Don't let them run here when they see the heavens."
Qi was so dizzy with anger that he couldn't help but say, "Is the old lady for the affairs of their previous dynasty, or for Princess Chen?"
The old lady was stunned for a moment, but she couldn't answer.
Qi Shi said angrily: "Xie Songhua is now Princess Chen, and she doesn't look at me as a mother more and more, and you haven't seen half of the reprimand, old lady, let her abuse me, my mother will say a few words for me, old lady, you are still not happy, don't you think you are too partial?"
Qi Shi said, gritting his teeth more and more, "Last time Shu'er came back to Guining, it was clear that the old lady was also happy, and you asked someone to arrange it well, but Xie Songhua made such a fuss, you were afraid, but you are her grandmother, and now you are afraid of her?"
"Presumptuous!" Old Madam Xie never imagined that she would have such a thing to say, and her eyes suddenly widened with anger, "This is your good tutor of the Qi family? How can you talk to your elders like that?"
"Old lady thinks I'm disobedient to you now, and it's uncomfortable to talk to you like this? But when did she Xie Songhua talk to me, wasn't she so cold-eyed? Why don't you ever see the old lady and you take care of her?"
"She's your daughter, and she wants me, a grandmother, to stretch out her hand and take care of it......
"But when I took care of her, I didn't see you, old lady, supporting me! Didn't you lead people to embarrass me in public?!"
The old lady couldn't say anything, obviously this was not the case, but at this time, she actually blocked the Qi family.
When did this Qi become so arrogant?
"You ......" the old lady only felt the blood in her chest surge, "you are really ...... What a rebellion!"
"Yes!" Qi simply broke the jar and broke it, "I'm respectful, aren't you all bullying me one by one? I just hurt Shu'er a little, you are all like black-eyed chickens, this one is not used to it, that one must be guarded against.
Right now, my Shu'er is in need of the Xie family, just because of Xie Songhua's fluttering words, you all become shrunken turtles one by one, for fear of hindering you! In that case, what am I doing so carefully? Who will show it?"
"You...... You ......" Old Madam Xie was so angry that she couldn't help but slap the table, "Someone! Come on!"
