When Yong Ruo was touching the donkey in the donkey courtyard of Hengjun Prince's Mansion, a young eunuch rushed over to report: "The prince has returned to the mansion, and he seems to be in a bad mood in the madam's courtyard."
Yong Ruo's hand paused on the face of the donkey that Feng Liao gave her, and said: "Got it!"
Then she let go of the donkey, turned and walked into her yard.
While walking, I thought: Feng Liao was called to Prince Ying's mansion, what happened
In the Linghan courtyard, she and the girls and eunuchs beside Feng Liao were standing outside the house, all looking cautious.
Seeing Yong Ruo coming back, Yu Jing who stayed in the yard gave her a wink, indicating that Feng Liao was in the house.
Yong Ruo was not in a hurry to go in, but ordered someone to fetch water for her to wash her hands.
She washed her hands carefully, applied a little fragrant hand cream, and then went into the house, lest Feng Liao smell something bad on her hands and feel even worse.
Feng Liao lay sprawled on the kang, her eyes staring blankly at the roof.
Yong Ruo thought for a while, then moved the kang table aside. When she was about to go up and care about Feng Liao's mood, she saw Feng Liao stretched out a hand towards her, silently inviting her to go to the kang together.
She took off her shoes, climbed onto the kang, was pulled into her arms by Feng Liao, and hugged her tightly.
One of his arms was around her waist, and the other was on the back of her head, pressing her head against his. His head was buried in the hollow of her shoulder, which made her feel hot air and a very suppressed pain.
She relaxed slowly, just lying on his body quietly like this.
After a while, Feng Liao seemed to be in a better mood. He let her go, took her hand, and lay face to face with her on the kang.
"Ruoruo, do you still remember the words you said to me when I went to your house for the first time? It was about the dispute between wives and concubines." He said in a low mood.
Yong Ruo nodded lightly: "I remember."
A sarcasm appeared on the corner of Feng Liao's mouth: "Your words are too true! In a big family, there is only one man in charge. How can there be open and secret fights between wives and concubines? Some principals are virtuous on the outside, but vicious on the inside..."
When he said this, his tone suddenly became a little choked up, and he couldn't continue.
After pausing for a long time, he added lightly: "You once said: 'Don't look at the inner house as small as an inch, but this article, which is open and secret, can use all thirty-six tricks!" Now, these words I totally believe it."
Yong Ruo thought to himself: What stimulated Feng Liao in Prince Ying's mansion? Why did you suddenly say such philosophical and touching words
"Why did the prince suddenly think of this?" She asked tentatively.
Feng Liao's lips moved, and she struggled for a while, but finally she didn't have the courage to speak out about his mother's secrets.
He just said: "How many grievances and grievances in this world are born from the three words 'Yi Nan Ping'?"
Yong Ruo compared his words and tone of voice with the situation of Prince Ying's Mansion and some recent events, and a thought suddenly came to his mind.
When Feng Liao returned to Prince Ying's mansion this time, did she hear any dirty old things? For example: Concubine Shen and Concubine Zhou, the birth mother of the Prince of the County, are there any grievances or grievances
It's very possible!
If it was something about the current Prince Ying's queen's house, it would not have much to do with Feng Liao. His feelings would not be so deep, and his mood would not be so sad.
And the relationship between Prince Ping and Concubine Shen is not like a normal concubine and aunt. The grievances and grievances in it may not be shallow.
Human psychology and behavior patterns are inertial.
Concubine Shen was able to attack herself, a person with no conflict of interest, one after another, until she used Zhu Ying to warn her once before she stopped. For Concubine Zhou, who has a conflict of interest, Concubine Shen will only be more ruthless. Concubine Zhou's death was probably related to Concubine Shen.
It's just such a private matter, before Feng Liao took the initiative to tell her, even if she guessed it, she could only pretend to be confused.
She said somewhat vaguely: "The three words 'It's difficult to flatten' will indeed give rise to many grievances and grievances."
"Tell me..." Feng Liao said in a daze, "How can we be less 'difficult to appease' and less 'right and wrong'?"
Yong Ruo felt that this question was difficult to answer. After thinking about it, he said cautiously: "Everyone thinks 'everything goes well', but things in this world are always 'eight or nine times out of ten'. If you are not happy, you will be unhappy." If there is no peace, right and wrong will breed. This is indispensable.
"Instead of thinking about how to be less 'unsatisfactory', it is better to think about: who should be happy and who should be unhappy? No one can make everyone happy. Knowing who should be happy and who should not care about is already He is a great wise man."
Feng Liao fell into silence.
After a long time, he said softly to Yong Ruo: "Ruo Ruo, I once told you: I want to give up all the beauty in the world for you, and I only want you as a woman in this life. Do you remember?"
Yong Ruo only felt a slight tremor in his heart, and said softly, "I remember."
Of course she does. But she never really believed it from the bottom of her heart.
She didn't think Feng Liao was lying to her by saying this.
She believed that when he said these words, he was serious. When young and passionate, who didn't talk sweetly and make vows
But as a woman with a mature mind and a rational personality, it would be ridiculous if she took these sweet words as truth and relied on them for a lifetime.
What's more, this is still a feudal society where men and women are extremely unequal. How long Feng Liao can stick to those promises, she really has no confidence.
"Do you believe what I say?" Feng Liao asked her softly.
Yong Ruo paused, and said two words insincerely: "I believe." He looked at him with extremely firm eyes.
Although I really don't believe it, I will try my best to deal with the problem according to the principle of "believe in you"-this is very contradictory, but it is the best attitude she can show.
That way, even if it turns out that I was wrong, and it's all back to square one, I won't feel remorse.
"Then you have to always trust me!" Feng Liao's lips pouted slightly, with a hint of coquettishness, "I will do my best to make you 'satisfactory' all the time!"
Seeing him like this, in a daze, Yong Ruo seemed to see the vivid and pure boy at the beginning of the year again.
She couldn't help laughing, laughing without any burden: "Okay! I always believe in you."
Everyone loves sweet talk, she can't be stingy!
Feng Liao happily climbed up the kang a few times, and climbed to her side, propped on the kang with one hand, and gently held her cheek with the other, staring at her intently.
Yong Ruo looked at him without guilt.
What is she guilty of
For Feng Liao, is there any difference between believing and "handling problems according to the principle of believing"
After looking at her for a long time, Feng Liao's face slowly burst into an extremely bright, relaxed and joyful smile.
"Ruoruo, you are really my dear Ruoruo." He hugged her tightly and rolled on the kang, "We need to be connected like this for the rest of our lives!" Be hearty and cheerful.
"That's my wish too!" she said with a smile.
Whatever it is, the moment is real, and that's enough.
In the evening of that day, several imperial edicts were issued from the palace.
The first imperial decree was issued to Prince Ping.
The emperor demoted King Pingjun three ranks in a row to Fuguogong on the grounds of "misbehavior and disappointing my expectations", and punished him to go to Linzhou to guard the ancestral tomb, and he was not allowed to leave without authorization.
The second edict was issued to Concubine Shen.
The general idea is: the British prince and concubine Shen saw through the world of mortals, and asked for orders to become a monk many times to practice. I read his sincerity, and specially allowed Mrs. Shen to become a monk at Puhui Temple, and bestowed the Dharma name Huijing.
Puhui Temple is the family temple of the royal family, and there are indeed royal family members who voluntarily go there to practice. However, most of those who went there to become monks were royal family members who had committed serious mistakes and were punished.
The imperial decree of the emperor changed Taifei Shen's decision to become a monk at Puhui Temple from punishment to voluntary, which was considered to save a little face for her, for Prince Ying's residence, and for her children.
When Feng Liao got these two news from the palace, she looked pained and lonely.
Seeing him like this, Yong Ruo knew that he had guessed right: Concubine Shen had indeed murdered Concubine Zhou and the child in Concubine Zhou's womb.
The third imperial decree was personally delivered to Hengjun Palace by Cai Qingnian, the Clan Order of the Clan Mansion, the Chief Assistant of the Cabinet, and Chief Eunuch Cai Qingnian.
The content is: Adopt Hengjun Wang Fengliao as the heir of the emperor, and choose an auspicious day to be canonized as the crown prince, so as to consolidate the country and prolong the country.
This decree made both Fengliao and Yongruo heave a sigh of relief.
More than half of what they planned has been successful.
On the second day after the emperor's decree, Concubine Shen took Madam Du to Puhui Nunnery in plain clothes.
The master and servant, in fact, neither of them wants to become a monk.
But the imperial decree has been issued, and Concubine Shen must go.
As a confidant, Madam Du had no choice but to follow, lest she end up in a more miserable end. She thought: Fortunately, Zhu Ying has married outside, so she can leave the muddy water of Prince Ying's mansion. As for her life in the future, she can only ask for good luck!
Feng Liao went to see Concubine Shen off that day, without Yong Ruo.
Yong Ruo wished to stay away from that embarrassing scene, so he obediently stayed in the mansion and waited for Feng Liao. After Feng Liao came back, she hugged her silently and lay on the kang for a long time, and then she felt better.
Qin Tianjian quickly chose an auspicious day.
On the sixth day of September, Feng Liao was formally adopted by the emperor who had no heir and became the heir of the emperor.
On September 19th, Feng Liao was officially canonized as the crown prince and moved to the East Palace.
Yong Ruo was canonized as Prince Liang Di, and moved to the East Palace with Feng Liao.
There are five grades of prince concubines, and the number of places is much more abundant.
These grades and quotas are: 2 Liangdi of the third rank, 4 Liangyuan of the fourth rank, 6 Chenghui of the sixth rank, 12 Zhaoxun of the seventh rank, and 24 Fengyi of the ninth rank.
Crown Prince Liangdi is second only to Crown Princess Concubine, considering Yongruo's background, this is a very high rank.
Yong Ruo had to think: the emperor gave her such a rank, and the emperor probably meant to reward her for the merits of Lunan. She just said, if the emperor really wants to reward, why let her ask for it
Before moving, Feng Liao looked at the red plum tree transplanted from the Yong family's old house in Linghanyuan, and said with great regret: "When the plum blossoms bloom this year, I won't be able to see them every day."
Yong Ruo also had some regrets: "Yes! I thought I could drink with you under this red plum tree this year."
Feng Liao sighed slightly: "This red plum has only been transplanted this year, it's not good to transplant it next year, or it should be raised in Hengwang Mansion for a few years first. What do you think?"
Yongruo agrees: "Frequently transplanted, it is easy to fail to support. In the past few years, we can enjoy other red plum blossoms. Pretend to be a small red peach and apricot, but still have a lonely, thin and snowy appearance. The character of the red plums is the same. of."
