Chapter 396: It's Not a Question I Should Consider
Miss Chen's fifth name is Chen Wenrui, and she is the daughter of Master Chen, the current head of the Chen family, because she often visits Concubine Chen in the temple, and is very loved by Concubine Chen.
Some time ago, Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen Wu went to the temple where Concubine Chen was retreating, and euphemistically expressed that Miss Chen Wu knew the current emperor and had a great relationship.
The Chen family wanted Miss Chen Wu to enter the palace, but the emperor refused to draft the draft, so they wanted Concubine Chen to enter the palace and talk to the Queen Mother. Of course, it also expresses that the Chen family is in a difficult situation now, and only when Miss Chen Wu enters the palace can the current situation of the Chen family be solved.
Concubine Chen is a soft-eared person, Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen Wu are complaining and crying, even though Concubine Chen feels that the emperor's draft is not her own responsibility, she still handed the sign into the palace.
Concubine Chen's personal grandmother originally wanted to persuade Concubine Chen, she is a lot older, and she doesn't rely on the Chen family to support her, there is no need to offend the Empress Dowager and the emperor for the Chen family, she has done enough for the Chen family.
But obviously Concubine Chen couldn't listen to her own words, and I have to say that Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen Wu have put a lot of effort into Concubine Chen over the years.
The master and servant walked silently all the way to Fahua Temple, and before they reached the courtyard where Concubine Chen lived, Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen Wu greeted them. The two took the place of Mama, and helped Concubine Chen into the courtyard one left and one right. Sitting down in the hall, Concubine Chen asked all the people in the house to go out, and she and Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter were left in the house.
The matter was not done, and Concubine Chen didn't know what to say for a while, and sat there silent for a while. Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen Wu were very anxious, but both of them maintained their cultivation outside and did not ask eagerly.
Mrs. Chen glanced at Miss Chen Wu, and Miss Chen Wu got up and poured a cup of tea for Concubine Chen with a smile, "How is the Empress Dowager in good health?" ”
Concubine Chen nodded, "Very good, she has always been open-minded, she doesn't have much to do in her heart, and her body and bones are naturally good." ”
Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter glanced at each other, they didn't know what Concubine Chen meant by this, was she talking about the affairs of the Chen family that made her worry?
Mrs. Chen said with a smile on her face: "The new emperor is young, and there are many things that the empress dowager wants to worry about. ”
Mrs. Chen sighed again, "Those of us who are elders have an inexhaustible heart for the sake of the younger generations. The Empress Dowager is also worried about the emperor's family affairs. ”
Concubine Chen frowned, and then said: "The Empress Dowager said that the emperor is still young, and she will talk about the draft in a few years." ”
"This ....."
Mrs. Chen and Miss Chen Wu, although they roughly guessed the result from the performance of Concubine Chen after she came back, but when they really heard it from her mouth, they were still very disappointed.
Miss Chen Wu's eyes were full of tears, and the handkerchief in Mrs. Chen's hand was almost torn by her. After a while, Mrs. Chen said, "Fifteen years old is not too young."
Concubine Chen sighed, "The Empress Dowager is probably afraid that the emperor will marry too early and miss the government." ”
"How could this be a mistake for the government?"
Mrs. Chen still couldn't accept it, she thought that the Empress Dowager, as her grandmother, must also hope that the emperor would get married as soon as possible. Moreover, the emperor is not the grandson of the empress dowager, doesn't she want to expand the power in her hands through the harem?
She thought so, but Concubine Chen was unhappy because of her words, so she heard her say: "I'm just an old lady who is cultivating in the Qing Dynasty outside, how can I know what the Empress Dowager thinks." ”
When Mrs. Chen heard this, she immediately said with a smile on her face, "Look at me, I can't speak." ”
Concubine Chen lowered her eyes and didn't want to speak. She ran into a wall with the Empress Dowager, and when she came back, she really wanted to be alone. Just as I was about to say let the mother and daughter go, I heard Miss Chen Wu say, "Then what should I do?" ”
She is also fifteen years old this year, and it is nothing for a man to marry in his twenties, but if a woman is sixteen years old and is not decided, she will be gossiped about.
After all, Concubine Chen loved her, and her face was embarrassed when she said this. At this time, Mrs. Chen wiped the corners of her eyes with a handkerchief and said, "Yes, the emperor can draft a few years later, but my sister Rui can't afford to wait!" ”
Concubine Chen frowned and was silent, "Then let's pick a good family for her in Shangjing." ”
"This ..... What a pity! Mrs. Chen looked at Miss Chen Wu with pity and said, "Sister Rui has a fate with the emperor, and it is best to enter the palace, so that it can also help the family." ”
Concubine Chen pursed her lips and didn't speak, and Miss Chen Wu wiped her tears with a handkerchief and said, "I think it's because Xiao Yuzhu is young and doesn't want others to enter the palace." ”
"You can't say that out there." Mrs. Chen scolded Miss Chen Wu softly, but her expression clearly agreed with her statement.
"No matter what the reason, anyway, the Queen Mother and the Emperor don't want to be drafted, and I can't help it." Concubine Chen's voice was impatient.
"Otherwise, you can go to the palace again after a while and take Sister Rui with you." Mrs. Chen said: "When the Empress Dowager sees my sister Rui, maybe she will change her mind, and it would be better if she could meet the emperor." ”
Concubine Chen's brows furrowed into pimples, she was very entangled now, she felt that it was too troublesome and wanted to refuse, and she felt that as the daughter of the Chen family, she should help the Chen family.
"Auntie," Miss Chen Wu said with a crying voice: "I want to enter the palace, all for the Chen family!" ”
Seeing her pitiful appearance, Concubine Chen opened her mouth to agree, when a grandmother's voice came from outside, "Concubine, it's time for you to worship the Buddha." ”
Concubine Chen swallowed back what she was about to say, and then said, "You guys go back first, let me think about it." ”
She stood up and walked out, and Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter could only get up and salute and leave, their faces were naturally not good-looking. And it didn't take long for Concubine Chen to enter the palace to persuade the Empress Dowager to let the emperor draft, which became the focus of everyone's discussion.
The current palace has been cleaned, and almost all the spies in Shangjing have been removed, and the affairs of the palace can hardly be transmitted. But Concubine Chen, who had been cultivating Qing, suddenly entered the palace, and then Mrs. Chen's mother and daughter came out of the Fahua Temple where Concubine Chen was cultivating with an unhappy face, and she knew what was going on with a slight thought. What's more, there are people behind the whole thing.
Tang Shuyi naturally got the information for the first time, she told Xiao Yuzhu about the matter, and then asked with a smile: "What do you say I should do?" ”
Xiao Yuzhu said indifferently: "This is not a problem for me to consider. ”
If Li Jingyi can't bear such a thing, then don't be the emperor.
The smile on Tang Shuyi's face was even bigger, "Yes, this is not something we should consider. ”
And that same night, Xiao Yuzhu received a letter from Li Jingyi, which talked about what he had done today, and vaguely expressed his thoughts, and finally mentioned the matter of Concubine Chen's entry into the palace, and the Empress Dowager's rejection of Concubine Chen.
Xiao Yuzhu fell asleep with a smile on her face after reading the letter.
In fact, even if her mind is mature, she is still an eleven or twelve-year-old girl, with worries and confusion about the future, but she just didn't show it.
