The Xiao family played really well when the relatives and sisters became "mother-in-law and daughter-in-law".
Gu Jiu shook her head.
"My wife really can't understand the Xiao family's actions, isn't she afraid of repercussions?"
In Gu Jiu's impression, the Xiao family is no different from other honorable families, they have always been very stable in doing things.
However, this time, the Xiao family did something so quick and quick, which is really astonishing.
Zhou Miao laughed, "Wealth and wealth are found in insurance. A little risk can be borne."
Gu Jiu mocked: "Don't forget, the fourth prince is the eldest son, and the fourth prince's wife is the first daughter of the Xiao family. While the Xiao family is in-law with the royal family, they send their daughter to the palace to compete for favor. Is this going to fight the empress?"
It cannot be said that the reason why the Xiao family sent a daughter into the palace is for the sake of the fourth prince's conquest.
In case in the future, a girl from the Xiao family who entered the palace to serve His Majesty gave birth to a little prince, should the Xiao family support the son-in-law, the fourth prince, or the grandson, the little prince? "
Ha ha…
Zhou Miao couldn't help laughing when he heard this.
After laughing, he said: "Naturally, which side has a better chance of winning, so I support that side. Or I don't support both sides, and I only want to keep a lifetime of wealth."
Gu Jiu snorted.
"No wonder Empress Pei would be angry when she heard that the Xiao family was going to send their daughters to the palace for a draft. I would be angry too. The Xiao family is obviously on two boats, and they want to benefit from both sides. It's just a dream. .”
Zhou Miao said: "With Empress Dowager Xiao here, the Xiao family will not be able to capsize."
Gu Jiu heheed twice, "The Empress Dowager Xiao is already in her 60s. If you say something disrespectful, how long will she have? When the Empress Dowager Xiao is here, she can keep the Xiao family from capsized. When the Empress Dowager Xiao is gone, Xiao Can the house not capsize?"
Zhou Miao shook his head and waved his hands, "Our family is not the Xiao family, so I don't know what the Xiao family plans."
Gu Jiu picked up the teacup, but didn't drink it.
She was silent and thoughtful.
"The Xiao family's move is very unwise, and they are eager for quick success. The Xiao family is not all stupid, it is impossible not to understand the serious consequences of doing so. But the Xiao family still chooses this path that is criticized, why? "
Zhou Miao shook her head, "Our family doesn't know."
Gu Jiu thought about it, "No matter how I think about it, I feel that the Xiao family's move is obviously speculative. What makes the Xiao family so utilitarian?"
Zhou Miao couldn't give Gu Jiu an answer.
Various thoughts were churning in Gu Jiu's mind, when suddenly, a light flashed.
It seems to be blessed to the soul, and it seems to be suddenly enlightened.
"Could it be related to the reduction of the nobleman?"
Zhou Miao was a little confused, "Isn't that in the past?"
Gu Jiu shook his head, "The cutting of the nobles seems like a farce, but anyone with a brain knows that the Yushi will not propose to cut the nobles for no reason. Someone must have ordered it. Afterwards, those noble generals, The members of the royal family will inevitably think about it, is your majesty really planning to cut the title? If there is such a day, the Xiao family, as nobles, would like to leave a way out for their own family. "
Zhou Miao was speechless, "This matter also involves cutting the noble?"
Gu Jiu nodded, the more he thought about it, the more he felt that it had something to do with the cutting of the jue.
"The court clearly has no money, but the courtiers suddenly suggested that His Majesty choose a talent show and open up the harem. Do you think that the talent show was created by those honorable families?"
Zhou Miao asked in a low voice: "Xungui is planning the draft, is it just to send girls into the palace?"
Gu Jiu raised his eyebrows and smiled, "Of course it is to consolidate the title. Do you think His Majesty has the nerve to cut the title of your favorite concubine's natal family?"
Zhou Miao was taken aback for a moment, and then burst out laughing.
Gu Jiu said again: "If you are lucky enough to give birth to a little prince after sending your daughter into the palace, even if you don't fight for that position, the little prince will always have wealth and glory for a lifetime, right? As the little prince's ancestral family, naturally he has to follow Get some light."
Zhou Miao pinched her unnecessary chin and sighed, "It's still Madam who understands the noble mind, and our family doesn't dare to think about it."
Gu Jiu took a sip of tea, "For the prosperity and wealth of the family, sending a daughter into the palace is totally worth it. As you said, wealth is found in danger. Relatively speaking, sending a daughter into the palace is a safer way. "
People in the world say that the palace is suffering, and this is true.
But for aristocratic women, they want money, people, and connections. After entering the palace, as long as he manages well, he might not be able to manage a situation. As long as you can get ahead, life will naturally not be bitter.
I am afraid, I have been in the palace for many years, but I have not been able to get ahead.
However, when Xungui sends his daughter into the palace, His Majesty will be exposed to both rain and dew no matter what.
The honored women seized the opportunity to give birth to a boy and a half girl, and their status was basically consolidated.
As for things ten or twenty years later, it depends on the specific situation before making a decision.
Sending a daughter only guarantees ten or twenty years of wealth, isn't it a loss
Of course not bad.
How many families can't even ask for ten or twenty years of wealth.
If you send your daughters into the palace, you can keep your wealth for ten or twenty years. I don't know how many people in the world are willing to send all their daughters into the palace.
However, there are no connections, so if you send it in, you won't get favored.
Xungui is in the harem, so he naturally has the advantage.
Now the opportunity is in front of you, do you want to give up
of course not.
After trying to understand the cause and effect of this, Gu Jiu heaved a sigh of relief.
"I don't know about others, but my four siblings are probably going to be vomited to death."
…
A talent show caused an uproar in the capital.
After more than three months, the draft has almost come to an end.
Sure enough, this time, half of the girls selected for the show were descendants of honor.
The remaining half are almost all from official families. None of the folk show girls.
Folk girls, according to the rules of the palace, can only participate in the selection of palace maids. If you want to get ahead, you have to climb up step by step, just like Jiang Yan back then.
Xiao Qin'er's younger sister, the seventh girl of the Xiao family, was indeed in the contest for the female talent show, and was finally named Zhaoyi, one of the nine concubines.
Since then, there has been one more Xiao Zhaoyi in the palace.
Xiao Qin'er's mood can be imagined.
When she learned that her younger sister had entered the palace for draft, she was so angry that she quarreled with her natal family three or four times.
Seeing that her natal family was determined, Xiao Qin'er was furious and took the child back to the palace.
Half a year away from the palace, Xiao Qin'er's postpartum depression has almost recovered. As a result, I was stimulated by my natal family and almost relapsed.
Fortunately, she has gone through eighteen layers of hell before, and she can still resist.
Liu Yi also had a heart, and after getting the news, he went to Xiao's house to pick him up.
But Xiao Qin'er didn't give Liu Yi any good looks.
Because Liu Yi's two concubines have big bellies and are about to give birth.
Xiao Qin'er looked at the two concubines who greeted An in front of her, and sneered at Liu Yi.
Liu Yi waved his hand and told the two concubines to retreat, "Stay peacefully in your own yard. Madam didn't tell you to come out, so don't show your eyes to Madam. If His Highness knows, whoever comes to Madam to make three nests and four fours, If you offend Madam, you will never forgive me lightly."
The two concubines retreated under orders, both acting honestly.
Pooh!
If you really want to be honest, can you secretly get pregnant behind Xiao Qin'er's back
On the surface, he is honest and responsible, but in his heart, he doesn't know how many small thoughts.
Liu Yi looked at Xiao Qin'er with a smile, "You're happy now."
Xiao Qin'er snorted, "I have nothing to be happy about. What kind of character am I? I don't deserve your attention."
"You always talk with a gun and a stick when you talk."
Xiao Qin'er sneered, "I'm so miserable, I'm not allowed to vent."
Liu Yi held back his temper, not being as knowledgeable as Xiao Qin'er, "You just came back today, do you want to meet the eldest sister-in-law and the second sister-in-law?"
Xiao Qin'er put on a straight face, "You don't need to worry about our women's affairs. You take care of your concubines and don't provoke me. I have a bad temper, so don't blame me for whatever happens."
"All right, all right, I'll take care of them and promise not to disturb you. If you want to see sister-in-law and the others, wash up quickly and hurry up. Don't be rude."
"Know."
Xiao Qin'er washed up and brought the two children to the east courtyard.
Gu Jiu led Brother Yu to greet him at the door, "The fourth sibling looks much better, congratulations. Please come in."
"Sister-in-law is polite."
"Brother Yu, please greet Fourth Aunt."
Brother Yu obediently greets you.
Xiao Qin'er's eldest son also paid his respects.
They are all good kids.
Gu Jiu gave two gadgets to the two children, "My daughter looks really good."
Xiao Qin'er looked at her daughter with maternal love in her eyes.
She said: "She is very obedient and doesn't bother me. Unlike her elder brother, she has been naughty since she was a child."
The eldest brother has already played with brother Yu, and the age difference between the two children is not much different, just the age for fun.
As for the little girl, she is only about half a year old, and she is sleeping soundly in the nurse's arms.
The child is chubby and looks very cute.
Gu Jiu said: "One son and one daughter make up a good character, the four siblings are blessed."
Xiao Qin'er looked at the child, "Is this considered a blessing?"
"Why is it not a blessing? Could it be that the fourth sibling thinks that the daughter is not good?"
Xiao Qin'er shook her head and smiled, "That's not true."
The daughter has never left Xiao Qin'er's side since she was born. When mother and daughter have feelings, gender is naturally ignored. My child must be loved.
Gu Jiu asked the servant girl to make a cup of health-preserving tea for Xiao Qin'er, "The fourth younger brother and sister look much better, and they seem to have recovered."
Xiao Qin'er laughed at herself, "Almost pissed off again."
Gu Jiu understood, "This is the end of the matter, let's think about it."
Xiao Qin'er was very irritable, "I will enter the palace in the future, how can I have the nerve to meet my mother? When I see my sister, what should I call her? Should I call her empress?"
Gu Jiu picked up the teacup, there was no solution to this problem, Xiao Qin'er could only face it by herself.
Xiao Qin'er looked irritated, "I just told my sister-in-law that everyone in the family kept it from me at first. It wasn't until after my sister entered the palace for the draft that she didn't see anyone for several days, and her family couldn't hide it, so they didn't tell her. I truth.
I felt as uncomfortable as swallowing a fly. What sin did I do to cause this kind of thing. I really don't have the face to go to the palace to meet my mother. However, after returning to the palace, I must enter the palace to pay my respects. What do you want me to do? "
Salad!
