Power and Favor

Tang Yang's heart was stunned. If so, the emperor and the emperor would be furious.

However, the anger was only temporary. After the princess was divorced, the house was peaceful from now on, and there was no need to be entangled in waiting. In the long run, the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.

"What do you think about marrying the second lady of the Chu family?" Tang Yang asked.

Even though Yu Wenhao was tired of this topic, his father and mother had been talking about it, and they couldn't avoid the problems they had to face. He asked Tang Yang, "What do you think?"

Tang Yang analyzed: "From the perspective of the situation, it is indeed advantageous to the prince. Although the Chu family married the eldest to the king of Qi, Chu Shoufu did not fully express his support for the king of Qi. Because of the queen mother, Chu Shoufu always had some concerns, plus The Supreme Emperor has always appreciated you, so you have to let the Chu family act conservatively. This is the current situation, but once the prince marries the second lady of the Chu family, the Chu family will take care of you, if the king is unusable, Chu Shoufu Will put all the power on you."

Yu Wenhao said indifferently: "It seems that you also agree with what the mother concubine said."

Tang Yang shook his head, "No, the overall analysis is like this, but the humble servant knows that the prince has no thoughts of chasing in his heart. However, the humble servant still hopes that the prince will marry the second lady of the Chu family as the side concubine, if the second lady of the Chu family is willing to be the side concubine."

"Why are your words inconsistent?" Yu Wenhao frowned.

"No contradiction, the good concubine asked you to marry the second lady of the Chu family for competition, but the humble duty hopes that the prince will be protected by the Chu family."

"This king still needs the protection of the Chu family?" Yu Wenhao said coldly.

"Master, there are some things that you can't do, but the Chu family can do it." Tang Yang stated clearly, "Like this time, if the Chu family is on your side, can you not teach him some lessons? I'm so arrogant now."

The arrogant soldier must be defeated, and before it can be defeated, it is still very lethal.

Yu Wenhao said indifferently: "What you mean, this king understands."

"Then..." Tang Yang asked tentatively, "Master, what do you think in your heart?"

"It's not necessary!" Yu Wenhao said.

Tang Yang was fascinated and didn't say any more.

Yu Wenhao asked, "Xiu Yuan Qingling, what do you think?"

Tang Yang hesitated and said, "The humble position agrees."

Yu Wenhao was silent.

Early the next morning, Yuan Qingling asked his mother to go to the storeroom to pack some ginseng bird’s nest and return to her family’s home.

She went back this time, not taking her mother or her happy mother, only the green buds.

The carriage arrived at Jinghou Mansion, and the porter greeted him in.

Jing waited a long time ago to explain, saying that she was back today, so the second old lady was waiting in the main hall with the family members. Seeing Yuan Qingling coming in, the second old lady smiled and stood up, "Qing'er is back? Come and sit down quickly."

According to the rules, she had to be honored as a princess, and she was able to be courteous, but with a Qinger, she was divided into generations first.

Yuan Qingling was not stupid. I heard it. Looking at the people sitting in the room, they got up after the old lady got up. They didn't pay much attention to their expressions. They lazily called out their sister or younger sister. Not the princess.

Yuan Qingling did not respond, and went straight to sit down.

At a glance, I can recognize that standing next to the old lady is her eldest daughter-in-law Luan, wearing a cyan silk embroidered skirt, with light eyebrows, red and phoenix eyes, a collapsed nose, and some wrinkles at the corners of the eyebrows, but they are not very obvious, showing that they are well maintained. Not bad.

Next to him is the daughter-in-law of the original owner Yuan Lunwen, Cui Shi, wearing a yellow floral silk feather skirt, a jade bracelet on her wrist, and precious beaded beads on her head. She was born in a wealthy family and has a relatively aloof temper. Yuan Qingling's eyes were also somewhat arrogant.

Standing next to her is the original sister Yuan Qingping, fifteen years old, just about the time, applying perfumed powder, staring at her with two round eyes, her eyes are much whiter than her eyes, they look a bit triangular and their lips are slightly thin. After a little bit, I looked at him as a mean-mouthed person, but at a glance, he still thought it was pretty.

In addition, it was the two concubines in the second room, standing aside obediently, with their heads down, because they were concubine, their dresses were not exquisite.

There were still many female family members in the mansion who did not come out. It can be seen that the two old ladies saw too few people and called two granddaughters to come out to rush out.

Yuan Qingling looked at the old lady again. She is now relatively plump, with a round face and few wrinkles, and her hair looked dyed, and she did not see half of the white silk. She is also very rich and luxurious, covered in silk and satin, wearing a high bun, and her hairpin looks expensive. Where is there a bit of shabby dowry maid? If you don't know, I'm afraid that she has always been noble.

There was a faint smile on everyone's face, and that smile was a bit mocking, one can imagine that Jinghou Mansion really didn't pay attention to this out-of-favor princess.

Yuan Qingling asked: "Fuzhong came to report that my grandmother's condition was getting worse. How is it now?"

The second old lady took a look outside, and saw that she did only bring a girl and did not bring the maternal grandmother of the palace, she slowed down, and said, "Your grandmother is always like that, but this time it was your father who called you back. Yes, you can go to the study to find him."

Yuan Qingling knew her thoughts and didn't bring anyone, so naturally she didn't have to give face to the palace and was too lazy to entertain her, so she sent her to the study directly.

Yuan Qingling frowned, and if he wanted to see her, he went directly to the palace to find her. Why bother to lie that his grandmother was sick

Since it wasn't her grandmother who was sick, she didn't worry, and said flatly, "I haven't eaten breakfast yet."

She didn't want to put on airs. She rushed back this morning. She hadn't lost her breakfast, and her hands and feet were a little weak from hunger.

The second old lady looked at her and said, "Then you go to the study first, and the old man will prepare some millet porridge for you."

"Now!" Yuan Qingling looked at her directly.

The second old lady looked at her for a while, then turned and ordered, "Come here, take millet porridge."

The eldest wife of the second old lady, Luan Shi, sat down, her mouth curled, "It's really majestic, you have to eat millet porridge when you return home, haven't you eaten such good things in the palace?"

When Luan said so, the other female relatives all burst into laughter.

Luan was the daughter of the county magistrate. For the Hou Mansion, he was considered a small household. Before Luan’s father was an official, Luan followed his mother to sell embroidery outside to help supplement the family. The peddler's breath was still there, the roots were red and white, and seeing Yuan Qingling put on her airs, she couldn't help but sarcasm.

Yuan Qing Ling didn't raise her eyelids, and said: "My auntie meant that the palace was too poor to eat millet porridge, right?"

Luan was startled, "I didn't say that the palace was poor."

"That means I, the princess, failed. I couldn't even eat a full meal in the palace, so I had to go back to my mother's house and ask for a porridge."

Yuan Qingling's eyes flashed sharply, staring at Luan.

Luan is so awkward, what the hell is this? Yuan Qingling used to go back to her family's house, didn't she always have to go to her family's house? Why is it so prestigious today

The second old lady smiled and said without a smile: "Okay, why are you two getting ridiculous? Why haven't you come here earlier? Go and see, by the way, didn't Ms. Zhang make sweet-scented osmanthus cakes today? Bring some for the princess."

It's snobbery after all, if you can't make it warm, you will eat millet porridge.

After a pass, there is osmanthus cake to eat.
