Because of the embarrassing position of the Guangling Palace among Chang'an nobles, Zhao Taoshang has kept a very low profile since he came out of the cabinet.
So much so that while many people despised the Guangling Palace, they also ignored her.
In fact, she, like Zhao Taomei, is the biological daughter of Huaihua General Zhao Shi.
Even as the eldest daughter, she spent more time with Zhao Shi.
However, everyone knew that the Zhao family had always supported King Gaomi, and they did not agree with the fact that Zhao Taoshang married the crown prince of Guangling.
At this moment, Concubine Meng relayed Meng Guiyu's words and encouraged Rong Qing'an to covet the throne. Naturally, Zhao Taoshang immediately thought that these brothers and sisters were trying to win over their natal father!
She couldn't help but said happily: "The Xian brothers and sisters have worked hard, but it's a pity not to mention the women who married outside the house and poured water outside the house. Since I am the daughter-in-law of the Prince of Guangling, the ups and downs of my natal family have little to do with me. Well; let’s just talk about the love between my father and my aunt and uncle, how can I, a junior, compare to it?!”
He stood up and said, "Brother and sister Xian made the wrong decision! Since the concubine is still in confinement, I won't tell anyone about this! But in the future, there is no need to do this kind of thing again. Summon me!"
"Your Majesty's Wife!" Seeing this, Concubine Meng raised her voice slightly and shouted, "Your Majesty is loyal to King Gaomi, and it is known to the whole world! How dare we brothers and sisters dream of asking you to persuade General Huaihua?!"
Zhao Taoshang paused after taking two steps, and turned around in surprise: "Oh? Then what did the Xian brothers and sisters do to persuade the Crown Prince to fight for that position? To put it bluntly, the concubine is now a member of the palace, so she should know The situation in the palace: Even if the prince of Mi Zhen County fails in the fight for the crown prince, there is Prince Gaomi above him and there is Prince Gaomi and his son’s heirs. It’s not the turn of the Guangling Palace, right?!”
"Have you forgotten how the prince of Mi Zhen County rose up so quickly?" Concubine Meng said, "Although this prince is indeed outstanding, in the final analysis, he is also in the eyes of the imperial concubine!"
"If the imperial concubine hadn't persuaded the imperial concubine Zhaoyi, talked to him in front of His Majesty, and given him all kinds of conveniences... how could he be where he is today?"
"With your majesty's love for those two empresses, and the two empresses' favorite candidates for heir, how can your majesty not be the prince and cultivate them with all his strength?!"
Zhao Taojiao said with both laughter and laughter: "Concubine, you have already said that those two have already set their sights on Prince Mi Zhen. There is always only one person in the East Palace and the throne! Do you think that the Crown Prince can compete with Mi Zhen? It's not that I look down on him. My husband-in-law, Ke Mi Zhen, is definitely the best among the Rong family members of the same age! How stupid must those two be to give up such an outstanding heir candidate and choose the crown prince?"
"Or is your brother's status in front of those two people enough to persuade them to give up their secret virginity?"
The last sentence somewhat revealed a hint of teasing.
Concubine Meng bit her lip before saying, "Of course my brother has no such status in front of those two empresses."
She lowered her eyes, "Actually... it was my brother who noticed the thoughts of those two ladies and planned to take the initiative before the matter was revealed, so he asked me to send you a message!"
Zhao Taoshang's face changed slightly: "Did Mi Zhen die in the battle in Western Xinjiang? It's impossible, right?! I haven't heard of anyone rushing to enter the city for 800 miles recently!"
"We are not very clear about the current situation of Prince Mi Zhen, but there is indeed no bad news..." Meng Fangfei was interrupted halfway through her explanation by Zhao Taoshang: "Since Mi Zhen is still alive, what about the two of them?" How is it possible to change the candidate for heir?!"
Concubine Meng sighed: "It's because of Princess Mi Zhen!"
"Kangzhao County Master?" Zhao Taoshang asked curiously, "Didn't she go to Western Xinjiang with Mi Zhen? Although I heard that this master is very squeamish, so he has never been popular with the elders, so her natal family is the only one who A treasure... But how can you offend those two people in the palace despite being so far apart?"
"A few days ago, didn't this person write a letter saying that she was pregnant?" Concubine Meng twitched her lips, showed an unsmiling smile, and said lightly, "According to ordinary people's rules, at this time Since we are going to live in separate rooms with our husband-in-law, naturally it is time to prepare the candidate for my aunt?"
"Although the Princess of Mi Zhen County can still have two concubines according to the rules, the two empresses in the palace did not intend to be too aggressive, considering that the Princess of Mi Zhen County has a reputation of being jealous, and wanted to let the Shu family girl Just be an aunt!"
Zhao Taoshang frowned: "What? The master didn't agree, so the two people in the palace wanted to replace him?"
Concubine Meng hesitated and said, "If Princess Mi Zhen doesn't agree, the two people in the palace will at most resent the princess, but they won't even think of changing the princess."
"It's just... As you probably know, the county prince loves the county princess very much and is always obedient to her."
"Maybe because of this, when he was coaxing the princess, he said some things that were unacceptable to the two ladies in the palace."
"After the two empresses learned about it over and over again, they were very sad. They were worried that in the future, His Majesty would be gone and the bridge would be burned down!"
"After all, even if the county king just said it casually to appease the county princess and didn't take it seriously, but he followed the county princess so much, what if the county princess remembers it?"
"In the future, old scores will be raised... Those two people in the palace... you think so?"
Zhao Taoshang had never met Sheng Weiqiao in person, and all her knowledge of the former county lord and now princess came from her natal family.
The Zhao family is deeply aware of Sheng Weiqiao's pampering and pampering, especially when Mrs. Sheng personally went to Zhao Mansion to break up Sheng Weiqiao and Rong Suihe. Although the Zhao Mansion's apology became a minor matter, even if Mrs. Qin, who had always shown herself to be a generous person, had no complaints about Sheng Weiqiao in private... The old lady was very strict with her granddaughters, and it was not because she didn't love them.
So at this moment, I was a little skeptical about Concubine Meng's words.
But when I think about the proposal of the Meng brothers and sisters, I still feel weird: "Well, even if those two people in the palace have the idea of changing heirs... Mi Zhen has no chance. Prince Gaomi and those two peers, don't they still have Prince Gaomi? And grandchildren?"
When she didn't know that Rong Qing'an's biological mother, Princess Chai, died so vaguely, that the two people in the same palace were inextricably related
Since she is worried about Sheng Weiqiao settling accounts in the future, how can she not be afraid of Rong Qing'an Qiu's revenge for her mother? !
Zhao Taoshang believes that the Meng brothers and sisters must have a conspiracy.
When Princess Chai passed away suddenly, she was so panicked that she immediately sent a letter to her parents' family.
The Zhao Mansion was also very surprised when they heard the news, because Princess Chai was an orphan left by soldiers from Northern Xinjiang. She was raised by the Zhao Mansion, and she was also arranged by the Zhao Mansion to be given to Prince Guangling as his concubine. The Zhao Mansion was Zhao Taoshuang’s natal family. It is also the natal family of Princess Chai.
Later, Mrs. Qin and Mrs. Ji came to express their condolences in person, and took advantage of the opportunity to sort out the whole story with Zhao Taoshang. At that time, they suspected that they were in love with Er Shu.
However, Mrs. Qin never allowed Zhao Taoshang to tell the prince Rong Qing'an the truth.
As the eldest son of Princess Chai and Prince Guangling, Rong Qing'an had a very deep relationship with his mother. When Princess Chai passed away, he fainted from crying and showed his true feelings in grief. He first committed suicide without knowing who the real murderer was. He angered Concubine Meng and asked him to know the exact person who killed his mother. Who knew what would happen
While Princess Chai is gone, Zhao Taoshang and her son still have to live their lives.
Although Mrs. Qin is full of love for Princess Chai, who she raised with her own hands, and has the idea of avenging her adopted daughter, she can't ignore the life and death of her biological granddaughter, right
At that time, Zhao Taoshang couldn't bear to see Rong Qing'an's grief. Later, when she saw him going crazy with Concubine Meng, she didn't dare to say anything... This was just to torment Concubine Meng, but it even attracted brothers Meng Guiyu. Counterattack and suppression; if they knew the truth, who knows whether they would rush to the palace to die
By then, how will she and her children live
However, although Rong Qing'an still doesn't know about this matter, the Shu sisters in the palace must be aware of it.
So even if they don't want to sleep with the crane, they can't consider the heirs of the Guangling Palace: except for the dragon and phoenix twins born to Concubine Meng, all the children of the Guangling Palace are of the blood of Princess Chai.
"The Gaomi Crown Prince's in-law family is the Qi family. The Qi family is numerous and powerful, and they are very hostile to Prince Mi Zhen. They are obviously also very ambitious. He may be the next Meng family." Concubine Meng said, "The most important thing is the Gaomi Crown Prince. He has an indecisive temperament, which makes the two ladies untrustworthy."
Zhao Taoshang said: "Then there are also the heirs of Prince Gaomi. His three sons are not very old. Even if they are nephews of the Qi family, if they start to be adopted now, they will soon become estranged from their biological parents. They are close to their adoptive mothers, right? "
"The most important thing is that the East Palace comes from the Gaomi Prince's Palace and can easily get the support of the Gaomi Prince. This is good news for the two people in the palace, right? After all, the power and status of the Shu family cannot be compared with that of the Meng family. of."
She looked at Concubine Meng's expression, "But you brothers and sisters suggested that my husband-in-law consider Jianzuo...Does the Crown Prince have any special advantages in the eyes of the two Empresses Shu? I have no clue about this, but I don't know. Do you know if my concubine can teach me?"
Concubine Meng said: "The main reason is that after the princess passed away, the prince was extremely sad, which is touching."
Seeing Zhao Taoshang's sarcastic smile, she paused for a moment before continuing, "Actually, the reason why I asked my wife to talk alone was mainly because the reason why the two people in the palace disliked Mi Zhen this time was because they wanted to let their natal niece, There’s a place in the heir’s backyard!”
"So, you want me to take the initiative to request the two empresses Shu to let the crown prince take their nieces as concubines?" Zhao Taoshang said with a smile, "It is better to be more generous and virtuous, and invite me to come down. The position of born daughter-in-law?"
