After dressing as a deposed prince's favored concubine, verse 183
It has to be said that although this move did not hurt much, the impact was amazing.
Xiao Yanxing's momentum is like a broken bamboo, and it is clear that he will be the king of a country in Daqing in the future. Wang Shu and Concubine Sui's family are on one side and one on the other. But Wang Shu's winning chance is too big, and the prince's three children are all from her. Although the concubine Sui has a prominent family background, she can enter the royal family, and no matter how prominent she is, she can't compare to the prince's son and grandson. If Xiao Yanxing ascends the throne in the future, it is difficult to say who will have the last laugh.
At least now, it seems that the winning side of the concubine is not even half of that of the princess.
The princess who was stammered by everyone accepted the congratulatory gifts from others, but only returned the congratulatory gifts from the Zhenguo Mansion. What does that mean? Does the princess have anything to do with the Zhenguo Mansion? Or did the Zhenguo Mansion offend the side concubine?
This move has made many people think about it. The first to bear the brunt were the rest of the Zhenguo Mansion.
They didn't understand what Concubine Wang's move meant. Is it that the gift given by the Xue family is not to your liking, or is there a taboo, why are they targeted alone. But they couldn't go to the East Palace to find Wang Shu for an explanation for a while, after all, this was the prince's favorite side concubine. They didn't do anything, they just returned the gifts. For this reason, Zhen Guogong also specially asked the Zhao family whether it was the Zhao family who said something wrong when he met the side concubine.
Where did the Zhao family dare to say that it was because Wang Shu looked like the Liu family who didn't know where to die, and it was very likely that the Liu family was born outside the wild species. This deliberate move is eight times out of ten. Nine is revenge, and I just say that I don't know.
Xue Changfeng looked at her for a long time and didn't say anything more.
He and the Zhao family have been married for many years, and the past grievances and entanglements have long been dusty. Now the Zhao family has given birth to two sons and a daughter for him, and she is already the rightful mother of the Xue family. Even if Xue Changfeng still has a pimple in his old love, he will no longer make as much fuss as he did when he was young. He couldn't figure out what Concubine Wang meant, so he thought about asking someone in private.
It would be nice if we could find out what was going on and resolve it peacefully.
The Xue family secretly used means to inquire, but the palace maids in the East Palace were very tight. If you ask too much, just one sentence. It was Zhao's words and deeds that day that made Concubine Fang unhappy and unwilling to accept her courtesy.
When Xue Changfeng heard that it was indeed Zhao's mistake, he immediately made a gesture to make up for it.
Not daring to let the Zhao family come to the East Palace to apologize again, Xue Changfeng asked the eldest daughter-in-law to hand over a letter of worship to the East Palace to apologize on behalf of the Zhao family.
After Wang Shu received the post, she ignored it. Instead, he ordered someone to follow his mother's line to find the Liu family. The Liu family is now a big member of the party, and it is no longer the seven-grade sesame petty official of the past. The three daughters of the Liu family are also very well married.
The eldest daughter married far away in Yangzhou and became the eldest daughter-in-law of a local family. The third daughter also married far away, married to Ganzhou, and became the current wife of Ganzhou Prefecture. If the youngest daughter stays in place, it is considered a low marriage. But under the personal care of the head of the Liu family, life is very free. As for the second daughter Liu Ao, that is, Wang Shu's mother-in-law, no one mentioned it in her mother's family. As if there had never been such a person.
Wang Shu had already guessed that her mother was not close to her mother's family, and when she heard this result, she still felt sad for her.
The real father doesn't love his mother, and he doesn't love people.
In her previous life, her father always told her to be kind to her mother, Wang Shu always thought that her father felt sorry for her mother's weak body, and hoped that she could take care of her mother with him. I never thought about the bumps behind it.
choked up a few times in her heart, Wang Shu couldn't help but want to take revenge. Although she can be regarded as indifferent in temperament, she is not a saint. If you are wronged, you naturally want to take revenge. Wang Shu rarely cares about people, just because there are too many trivial things, which will only delay time. But when it comes to his own mother, he can't bear it. Wang Shu pondered that she had to take revenge once, so that these people could also taste a little of the suffering that her mother had suffered!
Coincidentally, when Xiao Yanxing came back in the evening, he hugged Wang Shu and mentioned that Zhenguo Gong knocked on the side to ask if he had offended Wang Shu.
Wang Shu immediately sneered: "I even asked you here?" ”
"Really?" Xiao Yanxing was also shocked. He has been with Wang Shu for many years, and he rarely sees Shu'er embarrassed anyone. Although she occasionally holds some grudges, most of the time she is broad-minded. What did this town do to make her behave like this?
Wang Shu originally thought that Xiao Yanxing would know. But when I think about it, he was busy with government affairs after returning to Beijing, and he really didn't hear about it.
After thinking about it for a long time, I still felt that Xiao Yanxing didn't need to know. Shaking his head: "You don't care about this matter, personal grudges." ”
Xiao Yanxing originally said it as an anecdote, but he didn't expect Wang Shu to really have something. Hearing her say this, his brow furrowed. Inexplicably, Xiao Yanxing felt a kind of displeasure in his heart at this time: "I can't listen to personal grievances?" ”
"Are you okay with your hair?"
Wang Shu asked abruptly, and asked Xiao Yanxing. He stuck the card and smiled: "What does this have to do with hair?" ”
"It matters." Wang Shu reached out and pinched the golden hairpin above his head, and suddenly twitched. The black satin-like hair fell down like flowing water and covered Xiao Yanxing's back. He blinked, and saw Wang Shu pulling his hair with both hands, "You are busy until midnight every day, and you start racking your brains as soon as you open your eyes." Hair not falling out? And this mind cares about these grievances? ”
Xiao Yanxing laughed angrily at her: "What are you pulling?" ”
"See if you're bald." Wang Shu pulled a few times, but didn't see the bald areata. It is estimated that the ancient feng shui is good, he has not lost his hair after boiling it so much, and I have to say that he has excellent genes.
"Don't pull it, it's not bald, it's still very lush."
Xiao Yanxing grabbed her hand, took it down and held it in the palm of his hand: "Shu'er, I am your husband, and we are a family." If you have anything to do, be sure to tell me, I don't want a misunderstanding between us. ”
Wang Shu was speechless, he could be involved so far, and pinned the hair that had spilled from his sideburns behind his ears: "Oh." ”
"What are the personal vendettas?"
Wang Shu glanced at him: "My mother was the original partner of Zhenguo Gong. ”
Xiao Yanxing understood this sentence in an instant.
In the final analysis, the jokes that the Zhenguo Mansion made at the beginning were indeed too big. Although Xiao Yanxing was still young at the time, it happened not long after he knew about it. He knew a little bit about it. Later, Zhen Guogong put it under his name, and Xiao Yanxing naturally investigated his life. Zhenguo Gong is a beautiful person, a well-rounded civil and military talent, and a great military achievement. The only stain is estimated to be the absurdity of the house after the early years.
He glanced at Wang Shu with a strange expression, but he didn't expect that the peachy thing of his subordinates who listened to it as a joke was related to Wang Shu.
"Don't look at me like that!" Wang Shu covered his eyes, and rejected his speculation with dead eyes: "I am my father's own child, and I have the blood of the Wang family. It has nothing to do with the government of other towns. ”
Xiao Yanxing thought about it, but his age was not right. When Zhenguo Gong was originally married to leave Beijing, Shu'er had not yet been born.
"Is this trying to vent your anger to your mother-in-law?"
Wang Shu looked at his demeanor and exhaled in frustration: "I have to do something, so that my mother doesn't look so wronged in this life." ”
Xiao Yanxing smiled at the corner of his mouth, paused, and reached out to hold Wang Shu into his arms.
Chapter 145
Wang Shu said that she wanted to take revenge, but she didn't just talk about it. She either doesn't care, or if she cares, she must care about it. Isn't his town and country mansion a big business? Bullying her mother, her father doesn't hurt her mother, she doesn't love her, and tramples on it wantonly. Wang Shu wanted them to see if they were really noble, and if they did something wrong, they could really pay no price at all.
Xiao Yanxing did not interfere with Wang Shu's investigation of the Zhenguo Mansion, nor did he stop Wang Shu's secret preparations to rectify the Zhenguo Mansion.
If you really want to care, Xue Changfeng, the prince of this town, has made a lot of jokes in addition to the house in his early years, but he is quite capable of serving as an official. In his early years, he went to the battlefield with the old town Guogong and performed extremely well. has been fighting horses all his life, and the military exploits on his body are enough to support the lintel. Xue Changfeng is now a fierce general in the imperial court, inferior to Han Xiu, but he is a very capable person under Xiao Yanxing.
Now the Tiger Camp on the outskirts of Beijing is in his hands, with 50,000 troops.
But ability is one thing, private morality is another. As Wang Shu said, this is a personal grudge, so he will not interfere.
To be honest, if others want to move the Zhenguo Mansion, Xiao Yanxing may take care of it. But since Wang Shu told him not to interfere, Xiao Yanxing believed that she was measured, so he also turned a blind eye to this.
The people of the Zhenguo Mansion are prosperous, and the Zhenguo Gong himself has five heirs and two heirs. There are also many heirs in other rooms of the Xue family, Xue Changfeng's branch is a long house, and there are four rooms below. The number of heirs in each house is five, and there are about 30 heirs in this family. Not to mention the other rooms, just talk about the town and the country's long house. Two of the heirs were born to the original Liu family, and three were born to the Zhao family. The two concubines are from the girl's family, and they are from the two concubines of the Zhenguo Gong.
Originally, it stands to reason that the Duke of Zhenguo should not have inherited the title so early. Lao Guogong is Xue Changfeng's grandfather, and the title is passed to Xue Changfeng's father, and then to his grandchildren. Xue Changfeng skipped his father and directly inherited the title because of his grandfather's special attention.
Of course, there is no shortage of reasons for Xue Changfeng's outstanding combat achievements and outstanding ability. But the matter of skipping the rank and taking the title has also caused many people to be dissatisfied.
In other words, there is actually not so much harmony between the rooms of the Xue family.
Not only is there discord between the rooms, but there is also no harmony between Xue Changfeng's own heirs. The eldest son and the third son of the second son are not siblings, and there are many disputes. In the absence of the eldest son's mother, the second and third sons, who have the support of the Zhao family, will inevitably have a tough attitude. Based on his guilt for the Liu family, Xue Changfeng pressed the position of the eldest son on the head of the eldest son early. But even if he has the status of a son in the world over the years, the eldest son is still in a difficult situation.
Although Xue Changfeng is slightly partial to the eldest son and eldest daughter on weekdays, he can't completely turn a blind eye to the other heirs. Sometimes for the sake of his family and everything, he can only turn a blind eye to small fights between his brothers. His attitude towards the mud fueled the arrogance of the second son and the third son. So much so that three years ago, the eldest son went out and suffered an accident and broke his leg.
Now the eldest son can only sit in a wheelchair and be pushed by people.
Xue Changfeng was furious about this matter, and after ordering a thorough investigation, he severely punished the three sons who killed others.
After all, he is his own son, Xue Changfeng can punish and fight, but it is impossible to kill people. It is even more impossible to break the legs of the third son as a sign of fairness. He simply implemented the family law and locked up his third son for several months. The second son and the third son were separated for more than a year, and began to encourage their grandfather to persuade their father to change the position of the son. It is claimed that the Xue family cannot inherit the title as a person with a disabled leg.
However, this matter did not make a trick and was scolded by Da Zhang's bloody dog.
Dazhang reprimanded the second grandson for his ambition and unfilial piety. Such an act is not worthy of a son. Due to the maintenance of the Dazhang clan, Xue Jiyue was able to retain the position of the prince.
After all, Da Zhang's family is Liu's aunt. When something happened to the Liu family, the Dazhang family also regretted it. A good golden grandson was stillborn like this, and Da Zhang's hatred of Zhao was to the bone. Even if the Zhao family gave birth to two sons and a daughter over the years, the Dazhang family did not want to see her. Those who hate the house and Wu, and the heirs born to the Zhao family can't get into her eyes. In her heart, only Xue Jiyue and Xue Lingxing are her grandchildren.
At the beginning, the Liu family left the Xue family after being sad, and a son and a daughter were raised under the knees of the Dazhang family. This is the grandchild who was raised by her herself.
Xue Jiyue didn't dare to say that the situation was good with the protection of the Dazhang clan, at least the title and the dignity of the prince were maintained. But the situation of granddaughter Xue Lingxing is not good.
Xue Lingxing has always been raised under the knees of the Dazhang family, and the Zhao family has always been well water and does not interfere with river water. But the Zhao family can't get used to it, and always finds a way to toss people. The Dazhang clan took every precaution, but the marriage of Xue Lingxing was manipulated by the Zhao family. Before Xue Lingxing and Xu, the Dazhang clan spent a lot of contacts and favors to see each other. As a result, I finally picked an embroidered pillow.
"What is an embroidered pillow?" Wang Shu looked at the piles and things, and her brows furrowed.
Wei Qing lowered his head and didn't dare to look at the heroine, showing embarrassment on his face.
After a while, he considered one or two, and still chose a more euphemistic explanation: "It's just that the aspect is very poor, and the heirs are difficult." ”
Wang Shu's face turned cold for a moment.
Men since ancient times have valued that thing. If it is true that the brother-in-law who has not met is not going well, I am afraid that his temperament and temper will not be too good.
Although she had no plans to recognize her half-brother and sister of the Xue family, she still felt a little uncomfortable knowing that both of them were not doing well. For some reason, none of her siblings had a happy ending. At the beginning, Xuanzhi was too, if she hadn't found justice for him and pulled out Mao's and her concubines early, Xuanzhi's kid was destined to die early.
"What about the two sons and one daughter of the Zhao family?"
"The second son of the Xue family, who is from the text, is not bad at reading. Double Ten is already a talent at the age of Xiucai. I heard that it should be played next year, and it is very likely that I will be lifted. "Wei Qing has always been thorough in investigating things, and he has already investigated the details clearly, "The third son is a martial artist, and his temperament is a little reckless, but he is a good seedling for practicing martial arts. I plan to follow the path of martial arts. If you're lucky, you'll take over the class in the Zhenguo Gong Barracks in the future. As for Zhao's daughter, she is only eleven years old and is still a little girl. The temperament is not good or bad, but he has been pampered by his parents since he was a child. ”
Wang Shu's eyes were fixed on Xue Haoyang's name, was her brother's leg broken by him......
In addition, Wei Qing of the Xue family's various rooms was also investigated very carefully. Xue Changfeng's limelight was too strong, and the brothers of the same clan couldn't raise their heads. Secretly there is naturally dissatisfaction. But the Xue family is a big family, and it is impossible to split up because of a little discord.
Each room is crowded into a mansion, and there will naturally be more friction, and the relationship between the inside and the inside will be complicated when there is a conflict.
For example, the second room is extremely unaccustomed to the Zhao family. It's just because the eldest son of the second room is also a good material for martial arts. In terms of qualifications, he is actually much stronger than Xue Haoyang. But the difference is in the background, because he was born in the second room, he can only be subservient. The resources and teachings in all aspects are not comparable to Xue Haoyang at all. The second room can't wait for Xue Haoyang to wake up from his sleep and let his son with outstanding qualifications replace him.
The Zhao family is also very harsh on the concubines, and they don't look down on these concubines who have no ability to rely on the Guogong Mansion. Because the family relied on Xue Changfeng's exploits to be respected, she privately felt that others should honestly hold their room. The children of the other houses should also be her children's foils.
Wang Shu finished reading the relationship between the four rooms of the Xue family with a cold face, and waved Wei Qing away.
When Xiao Yanxing came back that night, Wang Shu asked about Wuju.
"Untouchables are not allowed to participate in the martial arts, and those who participate in the martial arts are not guilty of four generations and themselves, have no criminal record, and have no change of nationality. Eight feet long, with a strong body, strong martial arts, and proficient in the art of war and weapons. Xiao Yanxing was looking at the uncorrected recitals during the day, and raised his eyes when he heard the words, "What's wrong?" Who is going to participate in the martial arts? ”
"It's not." Wang Shu's eyes rolled, "Is it that the requirements for the children of Daqing Xun and the children of ordinary people to participate in martial arts are different?" ”
Xiao Yanxing blinked, and immediately knew what she wanted to do.
The children of the Xue family, several of them are good seedlings from martial arts. Xue Changfeng's third son had also specially brought it to Xiao Yanxing before. Xue Changfeng's third son was young and powerful, but his temperament was a little impatient. Xiao Yanxing didn't open his mouth to give guidance on the spot, but he also remembered that Xue Changfeng said that his son was going to do martial arts.
After a pause, Xiao Yan said: "The sons of the noble lords inherit the hereditary position, but only one person. ”
"If this person has a lawsuit, can he still succeed in the inheritance? Or does the law of Daqing treat everyone equally? ”
"Equal treatment."
Xiao Yanxing looked at her, suddenly put down the cinnabar pen in his hand, and reached out to take the person to his lap: "But the premise is that his lawsuit is included in the case record." If there is no record in black and white, it is not a stain. ”
Wang Shu exhaled slowly and did not speak.
This is a test of the Xue family's connections. If Wang Shu insists on deducting a lawsuit on his head, he will not be able to do it.
Xiao Yanxing stretched out his slender and white fingers to rub her tightly twisted eyebrows for her, and sighed: "Don't be sad about this." If you really respond to this Xue family like this, then I will not use the heirs of the Zhao family. Why do these things? ”
"Not necessarily." Although Wang Shu choked in her heart, she didn't want Xiao Yan to do anything to her between public and private, "I will take care of my own personal grievances." ”
To tell the truth, although Wang Shu wanted to take revenge on this family, it was not a purely malicious planting. If the heirs of the Zhao family are pure and good, they are harmless to people's hearts. Wang Shu naturally won't sit together. One yard to one yard. But Xue Haoyang was so vicious when he was a teenager that he broke people's legs. Forcibly crippled a brother who is both civil and military, and don't blame others for being ruthless in malicious competition.
But at the end of the day, her brother is a bit of a wretch. If you are able to file a complaint and sue the person who harmed him to the government, no matter how the family stops it, you have to find out the person and make a mess. It is impossible for Xue Haoyang to be released just after being beaten, and it is impossible for him to be qualified to take the martial arts examination.
Wang Shu didn't grow up in a big family, and she didn't know the family concept that the ancients had penetrated into the bone marrow.
But after being angry, he probably understood Xue Jiyue's choice. The children of the ancient big family were all prosperous and lossy, if the scandal of the Xue family's brothers was really poked out, the reputation of the Xue family would be gone. The prestige and family style of the Xue family were almost ruined. In ancient times, the family lived by fame, and in order to take care of the overall situation, they could only swallow bitterly.
With a sneer, Wang Shu wondered if she should meet this brother and sister who had never met. But when you meet, you will inevitably get involved. Wang Shu wanted to help based on the family affection of a mother's compatriots, but she didn't want to have anything to do with anyone in the Xue family.
