124: The Black-Hearted Little Emperor
Song Hun swept his eyes to the figure at the door, but he didn't speak, and ate slowly with his head down.
As soon as Song Huchang looked up and saw someone, he opened his mouth to call someone in, and said with a smile, "Eat quickly, it will be cold after a while."
Song Huchang himself is a concubine, although he is an elder brother, but he never regards himself as an elder brother to this cousin, and he is a little more cautious in dealing with him.
Song Hun Yue smiled at Song Hun Chang, "I've kept my second cousin waiting."
"What's this?" Song Hun Chang smiled disappreciatively.
Song Hun Yue looked at Song Hun Ming, who was silent, and remembered his father's reprimand for him these days, and his already pale face gradually revealed a little blue.
Song Hun Chang picked up the wine glass and touched it with Song Hun Yue, and said with a smile: "Hu Yue, the gentleman invited by the family is going to resign from the museum in the New Year, I think the third uncle and the third aunt have already told you about this matter, right?"
Song Hun Yue took a sip of wine and frowned slightly, and after putting down the wine glass, he looked at Song Hun Chang, "I said it."
It is precisely because of this that Song Hun Yue is becoming more and more upset, the lobby brother has been released as an official, and the gentleman is about to resign, and he can't hire a suitable gentleman for the time being in a hurry, so he can only go to the academy to study.
Mother meant that she wanted him to study with the cousins of the Cai family, but he didn't want to go, the Cai family is becoming more and more unkind now, and her mother went back to her mother's house to show her uncle and aunt the natural good side, but he knew that a few cousins went to the school and it was just a mess.
Besides, his father didn't agree, because of this matter, his father quarreled with his mother, and his mother insisted that he study with the Cai family, and now the eldest sister came back and persuaded him to do so.
Thinking of his father's scolding of him, he felt even more depressed.
He and Yun Zhao have not been close since childhood, that is because Yun Zhao is too sharp, and he can jump up and down disrespectfully to his mother, how can he be so rude to her?
Yun Zhao did Jieyu, and he didn't think about borrowing her momentum, the two were not close before, and they will probably be like this in the future.
They are probably destined to have no sister and brother fate.
It's just that so many things have happened in the family for more than a year, and watching the eldest aunt deal with things resolutely, he faintly noticed that some things were different from what he thought.
Beneath the surface, there is a side he has never seen, or rather, it is not that he has never seen it before.
He also disagreed with the family affairs of the Marquis of Wuxin's mansion, but he was incompetent and failed to persuade his mother and sister, and his father was very disappointed in him, and he knew why.
He is the eldest son in the family, and his father is not there, so he, the eldest son, should hold up the court, but he didn't do it.
The third sister who he used to be blind to, after entering the palace, he was able to rise step by step, swimming like a fish in water, but what about him? He has always relied on his identity, but when he starts to do things seriously, he knows that it is not easy here.
Father said he should go out and see.
Thinking of this, Song Hun Yue looked at Song Hun Chang, "Second cousin, what are your plans?"
When Song Huming heard this, the tips of his ears moved slightly, and he also raised his head to look at Song Huming.
Song Hun Chang looked at Song Hun Yue with a warm expression, "I also told Bo Ming about the dispersal of the museum, we plan to go out of Beijing to have a look, but it's just a plan, and we have to let the elders decide."
Song Hun Ming listened to Song Hun Chang not directly say the Yang family, his heart was slightly relieved, he was not afraid that Song Hun Yue would know about it, but her sister had not yet married, in case her mother knew about this and was dissatisfied with her sister, she was afraid that her sister's marriage would cause another twist and turn.
Song Hun Yue's eyes lit up when he heard this, "Cousin is planning to go out on a trip?"
"I want to find a academy to study, and I heard that there are many famous academies in the south, which are very different from the academies in the capital, and I have been yearning for it for a long time." Song Hun Chang said with a smile, he looked at Song Hun Yue with a heartbeat, and he was still happy in his heart.
The third aunt is an elder, no matter what she does, it will not be his turn to be a junior, but now her actions are becoming more and more acute, and the third room is constantly arguing all day long, which is not a good thing for Song Hun Yue.
His relationship with this cousin has always been good, and he is willing to reach out if he has this opportunity to pull him, but whether he can get the result he wants depends on Song Hun Yue himself.
As for Song Huming, he and himself are both concubines, and they can only rely on themselves for the future, and they are the eldest son of the eldest brother's serious eldest son, and they are not the same as studying and entering the office.
If this is the case, why don't you work hard?
Song Hun Yue turned his head to look at Song Hun Ming.
Song Huming's heart tightened, and he raised his eyes to look at his brother-in-law, "Big brother."
Song Hun Yue is not very close to this younger brother, but there is not much contradiction between the two, probably because his mother deeply dislikes Aunt Che, so he and Song Hun Ming are also very estranged.
"Do you want to go?"
Song Huming didn't know how to answer for a moment, saying yes, if his grandmother knew that he had to stop him, he would definitely not be able to go. If not, but I don't want to lie to Song Hun Yue now.
Song Huming's silence made Song Hun Yue understand, and he didn't say anything more.
The atmosphere outside is not lively, but the sisters of the Song family in the inner room are very lively.
After getting married, Song Lirong and Song Hongjiao were much more lively than when they were in the boudoir, and the two of them had an active atmosphere at the banquet, even if Song Qinghan wanted to find trouble, they were blocked back.
Song Jinxuan shrunk her neck the whole time, trying not to have any disputes with Song Qinghan.
Song Yexi is about to get married, and he doesn't want to cause bad luck, so he doesn't have a few words with Song Qinghan like before, so Song Qinghan has nowhere to go, but he is angry enough.
Before the banquet was finished, Song Qinghan said that she was not feeling well and took a step first, and when she left, Song Jinxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and Song Yexi couldn't help laughing when she saw that she was not productive.
Song Jinxuan now gets along well with Song Yexi, so she said softly: "What's ridiculous, I'm about to get married now, so naturally I can bear it."
Song Hongjiao glanced at Song Jinxuan when she heard this, Aunt Che is also a well-known figure in their Song family, she has been favored for so many years and has not declined, she has given birth to a son and a daughter, and she has raised them all, the third lady is not like their mother is tolerant, not only raised up, but also raised the child well, who can do it in the general concubine.
For example, Song Hongjiao and her concubines, food, clothing, housing, and transportation to needlework and thread women, reading and literacy rules, were all arranged by their mother-in-law, and their aunts couldn't interfere at all, and they didn't dare to interfere.
But Song Jinxuan is different from Song Huming, they are all raised by Aunt Che, not to mention, these things are also taken care of by Aunt Che herself, how can they be the same?
In the past, as concubines, they were also very envious of Song Jinxuan, but now looking back, they are very glad that they were able to be raised by their mother-in-law.
Song Lirong smiled on the side and added tea to a few people, and said softly, "Sister Xuan will be blessed in the future."
Those who can endure it are generally not too bad luck.
However, although Song Qinghan said that she married into the Wuxin Marquis Mansion, she didn't see Xu Anxing send her back when she went back to her parents' house today, and her complexion was not as good as when she was in her mother's house, so it can be seen that life is not as good as she praised during the banquet.
Song Yexi laughed when she heard Song Lirong's words, "We are all blessed people in the future when we have Jieyu to take care of us, but we have to think about Jieyu when we do things outside, and the two sisters should not forget."
"That's nature." Song Hongjiao was full of smiles, without Yun Zhao being Jieyu in the palace, their life in her in-law's family would not be easy and decent, not to mention that they married Jieyu to add makeup.
Song Lirong also nodded, Song Hongjiao is married to a person who doesn't feel it deeply, but her father-in-law is the county magistrate of Yucheng, and her husband has not yet been lifted, even after marrying her, he continues to study hard, plus her father is an official in Yucheng, there is Jieyu in the palace, and she is very valued in her mother-in-law's family.
This time Ye Xi got married, she rushed back from Yucheng to add makeup, her in-laws not only did not stop her, but also prepared a generous gift for her, her confidence in her in-laws' family was all given by her mother's family, so she looked forward to her mother's family better than anyone else, and Jieyu could be good.
In a few years, Hongjiao's husband will be admitted to the Jinshi and awarded the official, and she will be able to understand the taste.
Song Hongjiao and Song Lirong had to live in their parents' house, but Song Qinghan had to go back to the Wuxin Marquis Mansion that day, so in the evening, the sisters had another small gathering.
Behind closed doors and whispering, Song Lirong and Song Hongjiao taught the two of them
How to get along with the in-laws, how to get along with the husband, the teachings of the elders are naturally different from the perspectives of the sisters of the same generation, and Song Yexi and Song Jinxuan have benefited a lot.
Several people were dizzy from drinking, and they didn't know how many words they spoke, laughed a few times, and cried a few times.
After Aunt Che asked the girl to take her daughter back, she looked at her with red eyes and asked her, "What's wrong?"
Song Jinxuan hugged Aunt Che's arm and said, "Auntie, I will definitely let you live a good life in the future."
Aunt Che was happy, "What nonsense, you can live a good aunt more than anything else, I will point to the master and your brother for the rest of my life, but not at you, you can live your own life."
Song Jinxuan's nose was sour, and she said softly, "Auntie, today Song Qinghan always wants to find me uncomfortable, I don't think she is comfortable in the Wuxin Marquis Mansion."
Aunt Che asked the girl to cook sobering soup and fed her daughter to drink it herself, and when she heard this, she said: "This marriage is the light outside, and the lady and the eldest girl were not unaware of it at the beginning, and now they are uncomfortable and they are asking for themselves."
Song Jinxuan drank the sobering soup, the whole person was a little sober, and leaned on Aunt Che and said slowly: "I heard Ye Xi say that the smoke willow was not arranged to go out at all, and she still lives in the Hou Mansion, and Xu Anxing is very spoiled, that is, she is pregnant, and she often rests in her house."
Aunt Che's face froze, "You are all unmarried girls, how can you listen to these words?"
Song Jinxuan chuckled, "Seeing that we are getting married, there are some things that we should know about it."
Aunt Che sighed, "I'm just a concubine, and I don't know what that smoke willow thinks." Although Yanliu gave birth to an eldest son, one son is not enough, so she should have another one before the young master of the Xu family marries a wife, preferably a son, so that with two sons, her position in the Hou Mansion will be stable."
Song Jinxuan listened and didn't interject, she knew that her aunt still had something to say.
"She is pregnant and has to hold Third Young Master Xu by her side, firstly, to give the eldest girl, the wife, a horse, and secondly, it is also a kind of competition. If the eldest girl can't suppress her this time, she probably won't be able to suppress her in the future, and Yanliu will have a better life with two sons by her side. What the smoke willow is fighting for is not a temporary favor, but a future status."
Aunt Che sighed when she said this, "When I was a concubine for my lord, I was not as arrogant as Yanliu, and after I entered the mansion, I was also respectful to my wife at first. However, at that time, because of my beauty and youthful vigor, my wife looked at me unpleasantly, and she embarrassed me and treated me harshly everywhere, but it aroused my courage, and I had to compete with my wife."
"Those who are concubines have their duties, such as Aunt Qing in the long house, who is the dowry girl of the eldest lady, and has the same heart as the eldest lady, this kind of concubine is not only trustworthy, but also can develop left and right hands. Aunt Luo is from outside like me, but although I bought it, I am a girl from a white family, and Aunt Luo is a singer, so I am naturally more confident than her."
"It's not enough to have only one face, Aunt Guo in the long house is not only good-looking but also a down-and-out daughter, but so what, it's not a rule to live under the eldest lady. Aunt Qin in our room, when she entered the mansion, I gave birth to your sister and brother, where is she fresh, I know that Mrs. let her enter the door to control me, but I don't win."
Speaking of this, Aunt Che looked at her daughter, "Being a concubine has a way to be a concubine and a way to live, you can't learn these from your aunt, you have to be a lady in the main room in the future, you have to learn from the eldest lady." Don't be blindly jealous, which master and young master don't have a few people around to serve, to be a wife must be like the eldest lady, generous, and take care of it properly, if you have children, you have to raise them well, and develop your own right-hand man. If it weren't for Madame's inability to tolerate your brothers and sisters, how would I have the opportunity to support you. Keeping the children of the concubine by your side is equivalent to holding the lifeblood of the concubine, you have to remember."
At the beginning, if Mrs. was in charge of Jinxuan and Boming, even if she was arrogant, she would have broken and knelt in front of Mrs. for the sake of the child.
But Madame is not a big lady after all.
Therefore, the daughter must not learn from her mother in the future, she must be like the eldest lady.
The next day, Song Yexi got married, and the entire Song family was very lively, and now Song Sanye has made many meritorious contributions in front of the palace, and Song Jieyu is being favored in the palace
The Song family, who had little contact, also came to drink a glass of wine. It can really be regarded as a crowd of guests, and there is an endless stream.
In the palace, Song Yunzhao stood under the eaves of the corridor and stared in the direction of the Song family, it was a good day for the sun to shine today, and I hope that Song Yexi will be all the best in the future.
Not long after Song Yexi got married, Song Jinxuan also got married, because she was a concubine, this time the Song family was not as lively as last time, but the marriage was also very decent.
Song Yunzhao heard An Shun say that it was quite unexpected that Song Hun Yue carried Song Jinxuan on the sedan chair, she thought it would be Song Hunming.
Song Hun Yue's elm pimple head is open?
Anyway, after so many years, she has no feelings for this younger brother, and there is no equal.
This time, she did something that surprised her.
After the two marriages in the Song Mansion, it was the end of the year, and Song Yunzhao began to worry about the list of the annual banquet, but the emperor was a man of his word, and he would not break his promise to her.
This time for the Chinese New Year, the outside of the palace also stared at the movements in the palace.
When the concubine was there, it was naturally the concubine who presided over the affairs of the palace, but now there are no concubines in the palace, only three concubines, who will preside over this year's annual banquet?
Who will the emperor choose?
Don't talk about it outside the palace, even everyone in the palace is speculating about it.
Song Yunzhao is the most calm, she is just a Jieyu, this kind of scenery is not her turn.
Besides, it is written in the book that this year the emperor asked the three concubines to preside over together.
Unexpectedly, before the emperor issued the decree, there was another incident, the emperor restored the title of Concubine Lu on the grounds that the right minister had made meritorious contributions to disaster relief, and Concubine Lu became Concubine Shu again.
Song Yunzhao made a wooden face, the emperor is really a dog, in order to make the three concubines equal, he pinched his nose and restored the title of Concubine Lu.
She was the one who did the assist, and she couldn't accept this result.
However, as soon as Concubine Lu's title was restored, there were some rumors in the palace that were not good.
Well, the specific reason is that Concubine Lu's title was because Song Yunzhao lost his land, and now that the title is back, is the emperor dissatisfied with Song Jieyu, and Song Jieyu is about to fall out of favor!
Song Yunzhao was shocked, these people's brains are really blind if they don't write scripts, can all be linked together?
In order to show that his status is as stable as a mountain, Song Yunzhao did not send love and food to the emperor this time, but asked Anshun to go to Taiji Palace to invite the emperor to forget worries.
At the end of the year, the emperor was even more like a spinning top, Song Yunzhao had to make an appointment to see him, such a diligent and diligent emperor, she was really blessed, and she met her as soon as she crossed.
Feng Yi thought that Song Yunzhao had encountered something, so he came over in time for lunch, and Meng Jiuchang followed him from time to time, looking at the time of the hour, ready to ask the emperor to leave at any time.
Song Yunzhao was very convinced, Meng Jiuchang, the general manager, did not do it for nothing, anyway, against her white eyes, Meng Jiuchang was as stable as a mountain and was not afraid at all.
There is the grandeur of a big manager.
Although Feng Yi was busy, Song Yunzhao's love tonic soup was given every day, and the sense of existence was sufficient, so his complexion was okay, and after taking a seat, he saw that Yun Zhao was not very happy, so he asked, "What's the matter?" Who you off again?"
Meng Jiuchang listened on the side, and sighed in his heart, with Song Jieyu's temperament, when she met the third concubine and was grabbed by her, she dared to do it, and there was no one she didn't dare to scare, who could make her angry?
It's really a lover's eyes, the emperor favors Song Jieyu, this one is afraid that he will fall, and in the eyes of the emperor, it is also the fault of the stone, what can Song Jieyu be wrong.
Song Yunzhao didn't know Meng Jiuchang's slander, even if he knew, he would only give him a thumbs up, that's right, that's it!
She looked up at the emperor and said solemnly, "It's not that everyone says that the concubine has fallen out of favor, so the concubine wants to see if it's true."
Meng Jiuchang: ......
He really underestimated Song Jieyu's ability, can he try it?
This is the Emperor.
Song Jieyu is really bold, this time Your Majesty is afraid that she will be angry.
Thinking like this, he listened to His Majesty and said, "Then tell me now whether it is true?
」
When Meng Jiuchang heard this, he wanted to slap himself hard, his wise and martial majesty, how could he change his temper when he met Song Jieyu.
Song Yunzhao's tense face couldn't hold back when he heard this, and immediately the rain passed and the sky cleared, revealing a big smile, "The emperor is sitting here, it can be seen that those people are talking nonsense, they just can't see me. Concubine Shu can restore the title, that is the right minister's meritorious service, what does it have to do with my fall from grace, it has nothing to do with it."
Feng Yi: ......
Well, this complaint is a little more subtle than it used to be.
Meng Jiuchang hung his head, he knew how could a person like Song Jieyu change his temper, and sure enough, he was waiting for His Majesty here.
Listen, the complaint is called a righteous one, and it made him hear an illusion that if Song Jieyu falls out of favor in the future, it will also be the emperor's fault.
Bah!
He can't think so, his head doesn't want to move yet.
Feng Yixiao's eyes were bent, he really didn't think about it so much, he put the dishes in the bowl for Yun Zhao, and explained to her softly, "The New Year's banquet is coming, and everyone is staring inside and out, I plan to let the third concubine co-preside over the palace banquet, so Concubine Shu is not beautiful without a title."
Song Yunzhao understands that the status is unequal, how to tear it up.
is to increase the size of Concubine Shu, with Concubine Shu's temperament, it may be possible to let Concubine Zhuang and Concubine Wan have a good year.
This black-hearted little emperor, she likes it.
Song Yunzhao cooperated with the emperor and immediately said: "What the emperor said makes sense, the right minister has made a great contribution this time, and Concubine Shu has also made a contribution to disaster relief, and it is natural to restore the title."
Feng Yi: ......
Song Yunzhao cooperated with him so much, why did he feel uncomfortable?
After a happy lunch, Feng Yi didn't want to leave, and he was comfortable in the Forgotten Worry Palace.
But there are still a bunch of court affairs waiting for him to deal with, where can he be comfortable and lazy.
He put on the big hat, looked back at Yun Zhao, and reached out to brush her sideburns with broken hair, "Wait for a few days to seal the pen, I will accompany you for a few days."
"I can remember what the emperor said." Song Yunzhao is happy, the emperor accompanies her, then she can't set up a favorite concubine, and she can have a good year this year.
This year's KPI is not only up to standard, it's simply exceeding!
As soon as he was happy, Song Yunzhao stood on tiptoe and quickly tapped on the emperor's lips.
Feng Yi's eyes froze, and he stretched out his hand to wrap around Song Yunzhao's waist.
Meng Jiuchang immediately lowered his head, ouch, Song Jieyu is too bold!
It's really not ordinary people who can be favored!
Seeing that the emperor carried Song Jieyu into the dormitory, Meng Jiuchang honestly acted as a gatekeeper, looking up at the sky, pinching the hour in his heart, which minister was going to meet in the afternoon?
Song Yunzhao, who was overwhelmed in the dormitory, was also stunned, she just wanted to be naughty, but she didn't expect the emperor to be so careless.
Since the snow disaster, the emperor pressed the right phase and Qin Taifu game, the left minister wanted to watch the fire from the other side, and was pushed into the water by the emperor, and now the authority of the left and right phases was slowly reduced by the emperor quietly, the two phases knew that they were in the whirlpool, and it was not easy to get out.
The monarch and the ministers have been playing for a few months, where can the emperor take care of the beauty of the harem, after being plain for so long, Song Yunzhao lit a fire, and naturally he couldn't run.
Song Yunzhao held his waist and thought afterwards, probably the biggest benefit of this matter is that she fell out of favor, which is a joke.
She Song Jieyu is still the first person to be favored in this harem!
