Seeing that Princess Jin won one victory after another, in addition to Mao Wei, there was also Chen Junjun.
I wish Erniang's maid to sacrifice her life to avenge her grievances, but she only ended up with a judgment of "taking the blame for herself", not to mention upholding justice for Erniang, Princess Jin simply ignored it, which undoubtedly angered the Chen family, firstly, because the plan fell through and was annoyed, and secondly, she was also particularly annoyed that the princess was indifferent to Erniang's tragic experience, and she was not shocked by Erniang's chastity.
Of course, what is more important is that this plan failed, Zhu Ji and his wife could not be condemned, and Jinyang Chen could not take the opportunity to make a profit.
Fortunately, she had already made arrangements, and her son Liu Qingcheng wrote back and learned that another plan was going well.
It was not that Liu Qingcheng intended to deceive his biological mother, he did act according to the order at that time, spread rumors in Chang'an to ruin the reputation of the princess, and immediately wrote to the family after succeeding, so that his mother could act, and he never thought that the crime would be exposed later, and he was threatened by He Ye, and left Beijing gloomily, and did not dare to tell the family.
Therefore, Chan only said that his plan succeeded, but he did not know that something had changed.
Although Liu Qingcheng was reprimanded and deposed by Wei Yuanping, this matter was deliberately controlled by He Zhan and was not spread out.
Of course, it is impossible for the King of Shu and Yuan Dezhi not to know, but the role played by these two people in this incident is not so glorious, so they did not write to Mao Wei, but the King of Shu did not expect Mao Wei to have a future, he did not take such a small role as Jinyang Chen in his eyes at all, and even Guo Ju'an did not notify him.
So Mao Wei didn't even know that Liu Qingcheng had been punished for slandering the princess.
Even Taiyuan Liu, Liu Ren and Mrs. Zhen were kept in the dark, but their eldest son Liu Qingju was suddenly transferred to Jingzhong, although it was not a major position, and it was just appointed by the officials, and it had not yet been handed over to Qingming, but Liu Ren already felt particularly surprised.
"At today's banquet, the princess should mention the matter of the new deal euphemistically, if it is only pointed out when the female relatives drink and talk, the lady must echo it." Liu Ren also planned to go to the banquet together today, but he still didn't forget to tell Mrs. Zhen.
Obviously, Taiyuan Liu has also decided to show his sincerity to the Jin Palace.
This is not all because Liu Qingju was promoted, in fact, in recent times, so many accidents have occurred, all of which ended in the victory of the Jin Palace, how can Liu Ren not see that Mao Wei is doomed to defeat, if it continues to be ambiguous, it is difficult to guarantee that it will not be classified as Mao Wei's party by Princess Jin, and it is indeed time to take a stand.
Mrs. Zhen was naturally full of wishes, but she had to remind her husband: "The three women are obsessed, and some time ago they didn't forget to stir up those houses to oppose and support the new policy, and today she will go to the banquet with her, but I am afraid that she is suspicious again." โ
Liu Ren sneered: "If she wants to bring humiliation on herself, she should also taste it, rest assured, if the princess can't even deal with a few women, she can't rectify Taiyuan thriving." โ
Liu Ren was already very dissatisfied with Chen's jumping up and down during this time, although he secretly gave a few warnings, he didn't expect Chen to still be the same, Liu Ren's perception of this woman was not as good as before, and he also had the intention to take this opportunity to simply suppress him.
Madame Zhen breathed a long sigh of relief, and only then could she be sure that she had a chance of winning, presumably after today, the influence of the Chen clan on Taiyuan Liu would be completely eliminated.
But of course Chen's will not think so, she is in control, because her self-confidence influence is not limited to Taiyuan Liu's daughters, it is not an exaggeration to say that it is all over Jinyang, when she was in the boudoir, she has the reputation of filial piety, when she married Taiyuan Liu, but the husband's family took the initiative to marry, and publicized the sincerity, although the marriage is not the son of the sect, Liu Ling is idle, but in the end it is the son of Taiyuan Liu Yanzong, since the marriage, whether it is the in-laws, or the concubine, all of them have a lot of respect for her, Jinyang's major families do not know how many mothers-in-law, have taken her as an example to teach their daughters-in-law? Taiyuan Liu ranks first in the Jinyang family, ordinary entertainment, Chen of course heard a lot of flattery, self-confidence can be a model of women's morality.
Of course, she automatically ignored the fact that she was "besieged" by the housewives of the Meng and Zhen families at the banquet in the Jin Palace-needless to say, the Zhen family also dared to be disrespectful to her because of the show of favor to the Jin princess, but today, the princess of Jin herself is difficult to protect, and unlike that day, most of the people at the banquet were Taiyuan Meng's in-laws, of course, they would not support her, an outsider.
Today, they are all rich and noble in Taiyuan, and many of them are also Jinyang Chen's in-laws, how can the Chen family worry about being weak?
This time, she is really high-spirited, so she cares more about dressing, of course, she will not blindly pursue luxury and brightness, but pay more attention to dignified and decent.
I didn't expect that as soon as I came out of the banquet, I saw Liu Ling also dressed well.
"Master, this is going ......"
"Of course, it's going to the Jin Palace." Liu Ling raised her chin high and glanced at Chen: "My brother specially instructed me not to be lazy. โ
Chan: ......
She is really afraid of going to the banquet with Liu Ling, she has lived most of her life, and most of the time she can maintain decency, all the embarrassing deeds are all because of Liu Ling.
One by one, one by one, even after many years, it is still fresh in Chen's memory.
On the wedding night, when the Qinglu cave was in the cave room, she was full of shyness but gentle and considerate to untie the groom's wide clothes, but in the wedding robe, there was a harrier eagle, which almost did not leave a claw mark on her face; When she returned to the door in the third dynasty, Liu Ling saw that her aunt had a hairpin on her hairpin, and sighed, "What a flower, inserted in the cow barley"! When she went to her in-laws' birthday banquet again, Liu Ling saw a brightly colored kingfisher parked under the eaves of the main garden, and climbed the pillar in public, wanting to catch the kingfisher and enjoy it......
The most humiliating one, once she did not go to the banquet with Liu Ling, but went to invite alone, but it caused the women present to be full of confusion, she still didn't know why, and finally someone had the courage to ask: "Why is the county king...... Is it still alive? โ
Only then did Chen know that Liu Ling was mourned because of playing with pets, causing the world to think that she died of illness!!
In short, Chen Shitian is not afraid of the earth, he is afraid of appearing in front of the public with Liu Ling.
However, after being "virtuous and virtuous" for most of his life, Chen couldn't say anything about disliking her husband when he was killed, so he had to walk with Liu Ling with a lot of sorrow.
She was still in the car, so she heard Liu Ling shouting on the horse: "Third Brother Xu, we can be regarded as meeting today, don't run, last time you promised to transfer your concubine, rest assured, I don't despise her, as long as she can follow me for a year, graft my pot of green jade peony and plant it alive, I promise to return the original wall, if you don't believe it, how about we go to the government to be fair?" โ
Chen even had a feeling that he didn't want to get out of the car.
But since he has arrived in front of the Jin Palace, it is of course unrealistic to go back.
Chen got out of the car and changed the seat of the Jin Palace, and she felt ashamed for a long time, until she ......
Unexpectedly, when they arrived at the banquet hall, the people walking in front turned out to be Zhu Ji and Liu!
Chen Junjun regarded these two as mortal enemies, so she was extremely red-eyed, but with her cultivation, of course she would not immediately draw a knife against each other, she just stared coldly, but her mind was in full swing: Taiyuan Zhu was openly absent last time, why did he go to invite this time? No, if Taiyuan Zhu changes his opinion, it should be the presence of the sect, not only the junior Zhu Ji, could it be that Zhu Ji acted privately in order to thank Princess Jin for "letting go"?
There is even more coldness in his eyes, disobeying the family's own opinions, the kid is really arrogant!
Chen Junjun completely forgot about herself, why didn't she go against the will of the clan and did not repent?
When Mrs. Zhen saw Zhu Ji and his wife, she had a different idea in her heart.
Taiyuan Zhu is the highest official at present, Zhu Sibai, the head of the three-room family, the official to the door of the province to ride a regular attendant, and his son Zhu Tang, and in the year of establishment, he served as a bachelor in Hongwen Hall, as if he was expected to be promoted to the position of real power in the center, so recently, Taiyuan Zhu acted extremely cautiously, especially in the treatment of party disputes.
Last time, the princess of Jin just feasted a few family daughters in the name of thanking for the good deeds, Taiyuan Zhu did not want to do much, so she excused herself not to go, but this time it was in the name of His Royal Highness the King of Jin to formally banquet Taiyuan Haogui, Taiyuan Zhu If he does not want to complain, he will definitely not excuse again, but he is afraid of Mao Wei's party in the court, so the clan elders did not go to the invitation, thinking that they specially sent Zhu Ji to attend, but also because of the previous accident, euphemistically signaled to the Jin Palace, Taiyuan Zhu appreciated.
This shows that although Taiyuan Zhu is unwilling to openly show his sincerity to the Jin Palace, he has no intention of resisting the new policy.
Although Chen's eldest daughter-in-law was born in Taiyuan Zhu, it is just a branch of the lineage, and it is impossible for Taiyuan Zhu to advance and retreat together with Jinyang Chen because of such a son-in-law as Liu Qingcheng.
Of course, Mrs. Zhen also commented on the fierceness in her woman's eyes, and there was no sarcasm in her heart.
Although Zhu Ji is not a big son, and only has the experience of two officials, it seems that it does not matter, but in the end, it is a descendant, how can Taiyuan Zhu not hesitate to take care of his own "feathers" for the sake of a married girl's husband and family?
The three women also think too highly of the influence of their Chen daughters!
