After Yaoniang went back, King Jin was already waiting in the yard.
Before dinner, Fucheng was asking the girls to prepare dinner. Yaoniang had something on her mind, and she didn't use a few mouthfuls in the Duke's mansion. After returning home, she hurried into the room to tidy up, and then she came out to eat with King Jin.
"What's wrong?"
Yaoniang hesitated for a moment, took a vegetable leaf and fed it to Xiaobao who was sitting next to her. In fact, Xiaobao was full in the Duke's Mansion before, but he still opened his mouth and ate what his mother fed him.
King Jin frowned slightly, glanced at Xiaobao, and then looked at Yaoniang's tangled face.
"I met something in the Duke's Mansion today..." She hesitated and told about meeting Deng Tuzi.
After listening, King Jin frowned even tighter.
"I don't know him either, and I don't know if he will cause trouble for His Highness..."
Xiao Bao stared at King Jin, planning that if he dared to show his mother any more face, he would delay calling him father. In fact, after Yaoniang finished talking, Xiaobao guessed who that person was.
That man named Shen Tai is simply a moth of the Shen family. Anyway, when Xiaobao knew about this person, he was already dead, and it was just the name that Mrs. Shen always talked about.
And from the few words of Second Master Shen and Mrs. Shen, and the attitude of his father who ignored him but obviously evaded, Xiaobao guessed whether this person died at the hands of his father, or whether the cause of death was related to his father, so Mrs. Shen will use this as a momentum to achieve the intention of controlling his father.
But his mother should have never entered Beijing in her previous life, so of course there is no such thing as today. Shen Tai was not stupid enough to violate his father's taboo in the open, then what aroused his anger, or what did Shen Tai do to make his father Longyan furious, even ignoring his deceased father? Uncle's face, he did not hesitate to kill the other party
Xiaobao suddenly remembered something. He remembered that he had never seen his great-grandfather when he was a child, only his great-grandmother. Great-grandmother was a very kind old man, but she collapsed and stayed in bed for many years before letting go.
He once went to pay homage to his great-grandfather with his father, and if he remembered correctly, the time of death engraved on the stele should be the closest. But today, judging from the spiritual outlook of his great-grandfather, he doesn't look like someone who is about to die.
Xiaobao felt that he had gained insight into something, but there was always a thread in his mind that couldn't be connected. He tried hard to think about what happened at this time in his previous life.
A piece of anecdote that he heard in his previous life suddenly flashed in his mind, and Xiaobao felt a cold feeling all over his body, as if struck by lightning.
In his previous life, his father did not justly ascend to the position of the Ninth Five-Year Lord, but entered the capital under the banner of the Qing emperor, and the person he identified was the common man Zhao Youting, who is now the Yongwang.
Little Treasure knew too little, too little. He was just a milk baby when all these things happened in his previous life, and all these things were wiped out in the world with that turmoil.
In his previous life, Emperor Jin'an's reputation was not good. There were always rumors among the folks that he was cold-blooded and violent, punished and banned many brothers before ascending to the position of Ninth Five-Year Lord.
There were two large-scale literary inquisitions in the Jin'an Dynasty, in which many people were involved, corpses were scattered all over the field, and countless courtiers fell from their horses one after another. Since then, no one dared to discuss this matter, and Emperor Jin'an also gained a reputation for being cruel and violent, and the court and the people were silent for a while.
After Xiaobao became sensible, it was a coincidence that he found out about this matter. In fact, it is not so much a coincidence as it is someone doing it on purpose. After that incident, Prince An was reprimanded, and it was only then that Xiaobao realized that someone was deliberately trying to deceive him, trying to hurt his father.
Since entering Beijing, from what Xiaobao has seen and seen, the prince is still the prince, the status of the prince family has not been shaken, and the emperor's grandfather is not in serious condition, so what happened to make him appear in the thirty-two years of Hongjing? Such a big change
Little Treasure felt that too many things had happened in Hongjing's thirty-two years—
In this year, his mother died of poisoning, and he broke down; The position of the Ninth Five-Year Lord; during this year, his father, the emperor, sent his troops to the south, and ascended the throne as the emperor the following year.
Xiaobao always had a feeling that the opportunity for all this to happen had started long ago, and the real disturbance should be at this time. Because only in this way can the explanation be understood, and the mastermind behind everything is really King Yong, he will definitely choose to do it at this time——
Longevity of Emperor Hongjing, all the kings gathered in the capital.
And his father sent his troops south from Jinzhou, so it should be his father who suffered a loss in this confrontation and left the capital, so that he would risk the world's displeasure and attack the capital under the banner of the Qing emperor.
Could it be that the reason why the father suffered a disadvantage in this battle was related to the death of his great-grandfather
And when Xiaobao was worried about the country and the people, the other side fell into deep thought for unknown reasons, so that Yaoniang misunderstood King Jin, who was doing post-mortem remedy.
"It really won't cause any trouble, don't think about it."
"He should be your relative. Could it be the son of my aunt? My aunt is not very friendly to me. I'm afraid..."
Yaoniang who slipped her tongue got cold eyes from King Jin.
"Why didn't you say this before?"
Yao Niang, who was a little flustered and aggrieved by being stared at, faltered: "I didn't think there was anything wrong, but then this happened again, I..."
"Why is she so unkind to you?"
"Actually, it's nothing, just said a few unpleasant words." Under Jin Wang's slightly narrowed eyes, which looked dangerous, Yao Niang honestly told the whole story.
"Later, my grandmother told me not to blame my eldest aunt, saying that she had resentment in her heart. But I don't understand this either. The elders said it, and I listened to it."
A look of complexity flashed in King Jin's eyes: "Don't pay attention to her, she can't figure it out. This king said that the members of the Shen family are very important, and I didn't mean her, and I didn't mean to let you get angry." Wang couldn't go on anymore, because Yao Niang misunderstood what he said.
What a silly girl, he said it was important, but she held back her anger. If it were someone else, let alone the eldest son of Prince Jin's Mansion, just with this in his stomach, he would be able to make a big fuss without suffering from being dumb.
After all, she still didn't want him to be caught in the middle, since it was his maternal ancestral home after all.
My heart suddenly softened, and I was a little bit upset. My own woman and child were angered for nothing, and I still can't get it back. There is also a kind of hatred that iron can't be made into steel, why is she so soft, she won't learn from others. She angered Princess Jin even more, and let her go as a dead person. With her means, she has thousands of ways to make the other party say what she said, how to swallow her words, and make people unable to find mistakes or find reasons. , and she dared to watch from the side.
So just as Fucheng thought at the beginning, if one's mind is off, one's off, there are always challenges.
King Jin, who was offended, said in an angry tone, "Why are you so stupid? She said you, so you just go back. The sky won't collapse, and if it does, I, the king, who is taller than you, will support it."
"She is an elder, besides, it doesn't matter if she says a few words, she is an elder after all."
"The elders are still disrespectful, so you also suffer?" Jin Wang squinted at her.
Yaoniang's bushy eyelashes were fluttering, and she secretly looked at him from below: "Then what does His Highness mean, you don't need to bear it?"
"Well, don't take it."
Yao Niang couldn't help but leaned over and leaned against him: "From now on, I won't accept whoever talks about me, only His Highness will tell."
Seeing her delicate appearance, King Jin couldn't help but raised his brows, and raised his eyebrows again, but he still had an unfathomable aloofness: "Well, just tell this king."
"If someone says something about me, I'll hate her."
"Fuck! Only this king can say it, no one can say it!"
Xiaobao, who came back to his senses, was so helpless, he felt that he was trembling all over just now, and comparing this scene was a joke, and he felt like worrying for nothing.
At the same time, in Siyi Courtyard, Princess Jin was not in a good mood.
To be honest, she was not in a good mood today.
It was her duty as a princess and wife to visit Duke Ning's mansion, but the protagonist was not her, but Su Yaoniang.
Mrs. Ning Guogong was indeed negligent for a while, but it is precisely a negligence for a moment that can reflect a person's true state of mind. In the eyes of the Shen family, probably one Su Yaoniang is worth countless hers.
One is not pregnant, the other is pregnant, so they are treated differently? What Mrs. Shen said was clearly sowing discord, but it was like a thorn piercing into Princess Jin's heart.
She couldn't help but think of her mother's more and more conciliatory attitude towards that bitch Yulan in recent years. After all, it still has an impact. This is the difference between having a son and not having a son. If her mother lives a long life, she is destined to beg for food under the hands of Aunt Yulan's two sons, so she softened her attitude.
Could it be that one day she will be reduced to this level
Su Yaoniang is being honest now because she knows that she should be honest at this time, and whether she will be honest in the future is unknown. Thinking back when Aunt Yulan first entered the door, she was so honest, but she gradually changed her face.
"Ma'am, the Marquis of Nanchuan sent an invitation today, inviting you to have tea tomorrow."
The current wife of the eldest son of the Nanchuan Hou Mansion is Chen Miaoran, the second daughter of the Chen family's second wife in the Jin Yang Hou Mansion, and also the cousin of Princess Jin. When the two were not married, they had frequent contacts. This time, I probably knew that Princess Jin was back, so I posted the invitation post.
"I'll go tomorrow."
Nothing to say all night.
The next day, Princess Jin went to the Marquis Mansion of Jinyang.
Mrs. Shizi stood in front of the main room door to welcome her. Princess Jin was surprised when she saw her big belly: "Look, your belly is not small, how many months has it been?"
"It's almost eight months, it's not the age of the month, this time you come back, no matter what, I will come to find you."
The two of them just went back and forth like this, looked at each other and smiled, and the friendship between cousins in the early years was back. Before Princess Jin got married, she didn't have many friends, and the only one she was close to was He Wanyi, who was this cousin.
The two walked in hand in hand, sat down in the hall,
Chen Miaoran asked her servant girl to bring her children. She is a lucky person. She married Princess Jin and gave birth to a son and a daughter. Now she has another in her stomach.
"My son visited the imperial doctor and said it was a boy. It would be great if it was a boy, and my heart can be considered more stable."
"You gave birth to Brother Tao and Sister Han, and Jinyang Hou's Mansion and Xu Guogong's Mansion are behind you, why are you uneasy?" Princess Jin said disapprovingly.
Chen Miaoran backed away from the left and right, and then whispered sadly: "Every family has scriptures that are difficult to recite. Although the son loves me, he can't stand the mother-in-law above. You don't know, the second year after I got married, She slapped the two girls around the prince. I had a fight with her and almost had a miscarriage. Although it stopped, it didn't take long for me to go back to my old ways, and I said that if I make trouble again, I am jealous. Now the two concubines Someone gave birth to a son, how many concubines and concubines there will be in the future, I will give birth to more sons, so that those cats and dogs will not have any thoughts that they shouldn't have."
This is the thinking that ordinary ladies would have. If they are kind-hearted, they will turn a blind eye. If they are malicious, they may have a few more innocent infant spirits under their command.
Concubine Jin was not surprised that her cousin would think so, but she just felt a little suffocated, and felt that it was the greatest hardship in the world to be reborn as a woman.
"By the way, I've also heard about the Prince Jin's Mansion. It stands to reason that I shouldn't say this, but after all, we are close cousins, and I'm also worried for you. If you are really unable, why don't you send that person away?" Adopt one of your children, so that you can have someone to rely on in the future, and the child is raised in your hands, so you don't have to worry that she will dare to move beyond your mind."
