The Hou Mansion lost the Sun family, and the life is still the same, and the Hu family finally got what they wanted, and took charge of Zhongfu.
Mrs. Hu didn't think about doing any tricks under the old lady's nose, but just wanted to use this name to find a good family for her daughter.
It has been more than ten days since Mrs. Sun and Song Jing left the Hou Mansion, and the horse-drawn carriages were escorted by the guards of the Hou Mansion that day.
The place Tang Lihua chose for Song Jing was not too far away, and it was not too far from the capital, but it was only a five-day journey, and the place where he settled was also the property of the Hou Mansion.
In Zhuangzi in a certain county, of course it is not as prosperous as the capital, and it is rare and quiet. The number of people brought by Mrs. Sun is not small, and there are already people guarding Zhuangzi.
So it wasn't too difficult to clean up. When they settled down, Sun sent a letter to the Hou Mansion, which was addressed to the Hou Ye, telling him about the matter here, and asking the Hou Ye to take good care of the two sons and daughters of the Hou Mansion.
When Gong Liangshan received the letter, he only glanced at it and threw it aside. Ever since Sun insisted on leaving the mansion, he lost patience with Sun.
Under Tang Lihua's arrangement, Gong Liangyuan is also gradually absorbing knowledge that she has never learned in her previous life, and her life is leisurely and comfortable.
And under the conditioning of Mrs. Zhang's medicinal diet, Gong Liangyuan's body is getting better and better, flesh has grown on her face, and she has grown a little taller.
Tang Lihua also took her to several banquets in Beijing, because the mistress of the Hou Mansion was not there, and Hu's status was not enough, so Tang Lihua, the old lady of the Hou Mansion, went in person.
These trips were not in vain, at least Gong Liangyuan's reputation began to spread in Beijing.
Different from the previous life, Gong Liangyuan quickly integrated into the social circle in this life, because Tang Lihua personally asked the Queen Mother to give Gong Liangyuan the title of princess.
This made the ladies of other families envious, why didn't they have such a good grandmother.
Gong Liangyuan often took Gong Liangqin with her, and the two got along well, and chatted well with some girls, and they became real little sisters.
Gong Liangyuan still likes to follow behind her grandmother, but she has too many things to do now, so she can't follow her all the time. Tang Lihua is happy to see the result. A little girl has to look like a little girl, and it's no fun to follow an old woman like her all day long.
Although Sun and Song Jing had left, Tang Lihua could often hear from them.
Tang Lihua didn't believe that according to the inertia of the novel's plot, the hero and heroine would just miss it.
Sure enough, things did not go as Tang Lihua expected, but within a month, the spies sent by Tang Lihua sent news back.
Song Jing rescued a seriously injured man, and stayed in her room without telling Sun, and secretly bandaged and treated his wounds.
The spies didn't know the man's identity, but Tang Lihua had a hunch that this man was the third prince Zhao Hong.
Recently, Gong Liangxuan, who was the third prince's accompanying student, was either at home or out to meet friends. It was heard that the third prince had an important business and traveled in disguise, so he didn't bring Gong Liangxuan with him because his whereabouts were hidden.
Guessing the man's identity, Tang Lihua told the spies to be more careful.
A few days later, Tang Lihua received another letter. Sure enough, the man had a lot of background. After Song Jing rescued him and woke up, somehow he sent a signal, and the small courtyard was secretly surrounded by many guards.
The man rested in Song Jingyuan for three days before leaving. The spies waited for the guards to withdraw before they had the chance to send Tang Lihua a letter.
He also said that not all the guards were withdrawn, but three or four were left to secretly protect Song Jing's safety.
Tang Lihua smiled when she saw these letters. Sure enough, the power of the plot did not make her underestimate.
If the guess is correct, the hero and heroine have hooked up now, if it wasn't for Shangxin, why did the guards stay behind to protect them after they left.
None of these Tang Lihua stopped, after all, the inertia of the plot, and the matter did not involve the Hou Mansion, so it had nothing to do with her.
Another month passed, and Tang Lihua learned from Gongliangxuan that the third prince had returned to the capital, and things went smoothly, the emperor was overjoyed.
The third prince received many rewards, and he was in the limelight for a while.
And the situation in the court also became tense, because the emperor was already old, but he hadn't decided on the position of the crown prince for a long time, and the princes had grown up, and those with wandering minds began to take over their own power.
The courtiers in the imperial court more or less chose to stand in line, and now the most evenly matched are the eldest prince Zhao Lang and the third prince Zhao Hong.
Throughout the ages, the eldest son is born of Concubine Xiao Gui. Because his biological mother is favored by his mother, he is supported by his mother's family. Zhao Lang is also famous for his virtues and courtesy. There are many people who act like this Support him.
Different from the eldest prince, the third prince is born of the empress, a real legitimate son, but the empress is not favored, and in the harem, concubine Xiao Gui is more powerful than her.
Every time she was provoked by Concubine Xiao, the queen could only hold back her anger, because past experience told the queen that if the trouble came to the emperor, she would be the only one who would be reprimanded by the emperor.
In such a situation, until the third prince gradually showed his talents and gained the attention of the emperor, Concubine Xiao could not be too blatant.
Zhao Hong was well protected by his mother, and he avoided the poisonous hands of Concubine Xiao several times. Naturally, he wanted to kill Concubine Xiao in his heart.
Under the impetus of caring people, the establishment of the crown prince is the top priority every time in the court meeting, and the emperor's temper is becoming more and more irritable.
He's not dead yet, so just find him an heir.
Anyone who is persecuted like this can't go his way, especially the emperor who is above ten thousand people.
Tang Lihua was summoned into the harem on this day, and it was the Queen Mother who summoned her.
Tang Lihua has been here many times in her memory, and she is very familiar with it.
After being introduced into the apse, the Empress Dowager was sitting on a chaise longue, with a palace servant behind her gently rubbing her temples.
"The courtier's wife sees the queen mother, the queen mother is a thousand years old." Tang Lihua bowed and saluted.
The queen mother with her eyes closed waved her hand, "Sit down when you come, and come and talk to Ai's family. I am very worried these days."
Tang Lihua knew the reason when she thought about it. The empress dowager of the dynasty also had a rare longevity. The emperor was already in her forties and fifties, and the empress dowager was still alive.
Such a long life is the blessing of this dynasty.
So the emperor was even more dissatisfied with those courtiers who urged him to establish a crown prince. Why couldn't he live another twenty or thirty years if his mother lived so long.
Forcing him to establish a reserve like this is just waiting for him to die, which is really ambitious.
The emperor fired a lot of anger at the court meeting, only to temporarily shock those people.
The emperor and the empress dowager have a close relationship, and the empress dowager complained a few times when they came here. In addition, the harem was not peaceful. Because of the battle for the position, the concubines were ready to move again.
The sons worked hard in the front court, and they also wanted to pull others down in the harem so as to help their sons.
The queen can't control people, so the queen mother must be tired.
"The empress dowager doesn't have to be used to the brat, I'm tired." After hearing this, Tang Lihua could only comfort her. She was not the empress dowager, and she couldn't make decisions for the empress dowager.
The queen mother sighed, but she didn't call Tang Lihua here because of this matter, so she resumed the topic, "Yesterday the emperor came to tell the Ai family that there are still a few princes who have not married, and the Ai family thought about asking you to choose for the Ai family. pick."
In fact, except for the two princes in front of the palace, the few behind are unmarried.
Tang Lihua came here just to make a suggestion. There are quite a few noble girls in Beijing who are old enough, and of course they all want to marry the best family.
In terms of the best family, there is only the royal family.
Tang Lihua took a look around at the families that the Empress Dowager favored, and the third prince chose Li Wan, the daughter-in-law of Duke Cheng'en's mansion. Li Wan was also well-known in Beijing, gentle and virtuous, with a good family background.
This shows that the queen mother also values the third prince, and in the plot of the novel, the third prince Zhao Hong and Song Jing are in love with each other.
At that time, Song Jing was still the concubine of the Ningyuan Houfu, and her reputation was comparable to that of Li Wan.
In addition, the original body, Princess Anding, was the grandmother. The queen mother weighed one thing and two, and decided to obey the third prince's wishes, and finally chose Song Jing as the third prince's concubine.
Everything is going well, but now because of Tang Lihua's appearance, Song Jing is no longer the daughter of the Ningyuan Houfu, and she is sent out of Beijing, even if she meets and gets to know the hero according to the plot inertia.
But the hero is the third prince of the current dynasty, so he cannot make decisions about his marriage.
Tang Lihua really wanted to see how the plot would work out and how Song Jing could continue to be the concubine.
After staying in the harem all morning, Tang Lihua returned to the Hou's mansion with a bunch of rewards after eating a delicious meal in the imperial dining room.
After today, rumors spread in the capital that the princes were choosing their concubines, which had nothing to do with Ningyuanhou's Mansion, and it was rumored that the candidate for the third concubine had already been decided by Li Wan from Cheng'en Gong's Mansion.
This aroused the envy and jealousy of other young ladies in Beijing. Every time Li Wan attended a banquet, she would always be surrounded by a group of people to flatter her.
But Tang Lihua felt that it was not certain. Although the tone that the Queen Mother revealed to her was also Li Wan, there was a halo of male and female protagonists in this world.
Soon, Tang Lihua was called into the palace again, this time the Queen Mother's complexion was worse than last time, and she looked at Tang Lihua with a look in her eyes.
Tang Lihua knew that this was probably due to the development of the plot, and sure enough, the Queen Mother asked about Song Jing.
Tang Lihua didn't hide anything, and told the whole story.
The Empress Dowager's face paled a little, but then it became even uglier. She slapped the table, "Then Song Jing is the daughter of a farmer. It's absurd! Really absurd!"
Tang Lihua nodded, "At the beginning, the old lady in the farmer's family secretly exchanged Yuan'er, but was found by Xuan'er. Yuan'er suffered a lot. For her reputation, the minister had no choice but to hide the matter, and ask the Queen Mother to punish her."
The queen mother motioned for someone to help her up. Her anger was not directed at Tang Lihua. If it were her granddaughter, after so many years of suffering, she even raised the granddaughter of her enemy. Knowing the truth is just moving people out of the house.
What the Hou Mansion has done is benevolent enough.
Compared with the Hou Mansion, the Empress Dowager is even more displeased with the insatiable Song family. Small and small peasants, who dared to exchange the daughter of the Hou Mansion, deserved to be tortured in the prison.
Even the empress dowager became even more displeased with Song Jing, the wife of the Hou family of Gou abandoned her family and children for her, and now even her emperor's grandson disobeyed her imperial edict because of her.
The reason why the Empress Dowager knew about Song Jing was because the third prince came to her palace to say that he didn't want to get married and that he already had someone he liked.
But no matter how the queen mother asked, Zhao Hong didn't answer.
The queen mother sent guards to investigate, and finally found out that the third prince often went to a courtyard outside Beijing, and a mother and daughter lived in the courtyard.
The identities of the mother and daughter were quickly found out, and they were still acquaintances.
This is how Tang Lihua was called into the palace.
Tang Lihua was really surprised. When Sun and Song Jing entered Beijing, she hadn't heard the news yet. It must have been back and forth between the two places, and the spies' letter hadn't arrived yet.
"Queen, this woman has nothing to do with the Ningyuan Houfu."
