Chang's mother came here because after Queen Minrou's affairs were settled, although the new king wanted her to serve Queen Minrou and wanted her to return to the family to enjoy happiness, she had followed the queen since she was a girl, and she had lived in a master-servant relationship. After decades, they are almost like blood relatives.
Queen Pian's death was so unexpected that Chang's mother still can't accept it emotionally. She really can't make up her mind to go home, so she proposed to continue to serve Queen Minrou's descendants - just as the East Palace was newly established, the identity of the children in the East Palace changed, and Prince Hui's Mansion With the direct children of Prince Jing's Mansion taking over, additional manpower is needed.
She has no problem with her loyalty. She needs experience and qualifications. Qiu Yilan is lacking. Of course, she will not push her out. She talked to her very humbly and decided to let Chang's mother take over instead of Zhou's mother. Take care of Jiang Jinglang.
Although this arrangement gave Chang's mother enough face and gave Jiang Jinglang a loyal servant who could calm down the situation, it also made Qiu Yilan less worried about her eldest son being cheated by the servants in the future, but for the replaced mother Zhou , it will inevitably be embarrassing.
However, Qiu Yilan had already made a plan, and invited Zhou's mother to come over, and told her sincerely: "Mom has been busy for most of her life for my missing concubine, and for me. Now that Su He also has a child, if you continue to follow me , I feel really sorry!”
Zhou's mother is a relative of Su He. Although Su He is married in Beijing and she can visit her whenever she has free time, and Su He will visit her when he is free, it is not as convenient as living together and seeing each other every day.
After Qiu Yilan said this, think about it. The little princess who has grown up is now a crown princess and has a full family of children. She really doesn't have much need for herself. She will go back and enjoy a few days of happiness. There is nothing wrong with it. Relieved. So Qiu Yilan persuaded her after a few words, and she agreed.
Of course, Qiu Yilan would not let her confidant leave empty-handed. She specifically went to the court to ask her father-in-law for a marriage title for Zhou's mother. When she went to the court, she thought that her father-in-law would not refute her face on such a trivial matter, but she did not expect that the new king would be better than her. He thought even more generously, and actually asked someone to send the Phoenix Seal over directly: "Your Majesty said that now that the harem has no owner, since the Crown Princess is a tomb woman, she can follow the example of Empress Minrou and hold this seal on her behalf!"
This is also true. The new king has so many things to do every day, how can he have the time to approve such a trivial matter as a small imperial edict
But for a large number of people who covet the emptiness of the harem, it is really not good news - emulating Queen Minrou back in the day, when Queen Minrou was the crown princess, Queen Tao was there for a while. But the Fengyin was always held by Queen Minrou because Queen Tao was old and in poor health, and could not see things properly.
Now that the new king mentioned Queen Minrou, could it be that after his filial piety, even if the harem was enriched, the phoenix seal would still be held by the crown prince
Since the East Palace has been established, those who are interested in investing in the new king's harem believe that it is unlikely that the new king will establish a successor. But it doesn't matter if you don't have descendant status, as long as you have pampering and can blow the pillow.
But now that the new king has given the Phoenix Seal to his daughter-in-law, it is obvious that even if he hires another person, he will not be too flattering. The emperor is not young yet, but he has not reached the age of old age. Now that he has made such a decision, it will not be easy to change his mind with beauty.
This made the families who looked forward to the new king's filial piety like the stars and the moon so that they could send their beautifully dressed daughter to the palace were very disappointed.
The new monarch's support for the crown prince and his wife was not only reflected in Feng Yin's treatment - at the end of this year, the spring of the following year began, and the Yuan Dynasty was changed to Jianjia.
Jiang Tianchi, who was renamed Emperor Jianjia as the new emperor, used the excuse of tempering the prince and ordered Jiang Yashuang to supervise the country. Although he still went to court to listen to politics, he rarely expressed his opinions. Most of the memorials were given to him after being read by the prince. .
In this case, even the most obtuse person realized that the real reason why Emperor Jianjia doted on Prince Hui a few years ago - and now it is Prince Hui: "The common problem of the founders of the country is that they can share hardships but not wealth. And He wanted to save face and refused to bear the reputation of killing heroes, so he played a trick on his knees. After killing everyone he wanted to kill, his true colors would naturally be revealed. It was a pity that King Yongyi and others were killed. It’s so fun that I can’t close my eyes even if I’m afraid of death!”
Of course, King Yongyi's people died and were exiled for three thousand miles. No one in the capital was interested in talking about them. The most regrettable thing about the whole thing is King Hui: "Generally, King Hui is still the eldest son! Even if he is not as good as the prince, but if King Hui had not suffered the loss at the hands of King Dun, how could Master Zhaode learn the lesson later?" , to protect His Royal Highness from the wind and rain?"
"Forefathers planted trees while others took advantage of the shade. The eldest son and eldest daughter are always the ones who suffer the consequences. Your Highness, Prince Hui, is really suffering!"
The public always sympathizes with the weak - when Emperor Jianjia favored his eldest son and suppressed Jiang Yashuang's family, although many people did not dare to associate with them because of this, public opinion secretly always favored them. The mainstream opinion is that Emperor Jianjia was confused. How could there be any reason to leave his youngest son who was both talented and beautiful in both civil and military affairs to establish his eldest son who was notorious throughout the government and the public? Is this the foundation of Great Qin that will last for generations? !
Now Jiang Yashuang has been officially registered as the crown prince, and his position is becoming more and more stable with the support of Emperor Jianjia. Although Jiang Yadan was also granted the title of king and was treated very politely, public opinion unknowingly favored him: "I heard that King Hui's legitimate sons and daughters are now being raised in the East Palace?"
"It is said that because of Queen Minrou's filial piety, Prince Hui's palace now has no mistress. The Crown Princess takes pity on her nephews and nieces. Not only Prince Hui's legitimate son and daughter, but also Prince Jing's legitimate son and daughter have been taken to the East Palace to raise her."
"It's a good plan! The mistresses of these two palaces died in strange ways! After contacting each other, it is 80% likely that they are related to the crown princess! But these two have their own flesh and blood left behind, and they have watched them grow up. It’s really hard to rest assured!”
"Isn't that true? Especially the legitimate son of King Hui, who was raised by His Majesty and Queen Minrou. In terms of ranking, he is still ahead of the eldest son of the East Palace! If such a nephew is not under the radar, I am afraid that the prince and his wife will not be able to sleep... "
"King Hui's life is miserable! He was used as a cover and a stepping stone by his brothers. The princess of the county passed away without knowing it. Even the fate of the only concubine's legitimate son is hard to say in the future. If he is interested, he will let the legitimate son of the East Palace. It’s okay for the eldest son to pay it back, otherwise he might follow in the footsteps of his biological mother or stepmother!”
Of course, Dong Palace would not know about such words, and Mu Jin was trembling with anger: "Check! We must investigate thoroughly! This bastard is a bastard! What kind of benefit has he received that is so shady? He is just spreading rumors here to slander the queen's good intentions! I don't want to Prince Hui's Mansion and Prince Jing's Mansion, which one doesn't have some messed up people! Among the legitimate sons and daughters of the two princes, the eldest, Princess Shouan, is only ten years old. It's time for her to be taught. If our empress just sits back and does nothing, she won't be able to wait. When the new princess comes, I don’t know what she will look like!”
Mulian and others were also excited: "Even if the new princess comes through, will she treat the prince and the county masters well? My maidservant thinks that these words are most likely to be passed down by people who want to marry the two princes. Those who come out just want our queen to send the person back so that he can fall into their hands and make it easier for them to seize the title!"
Qiu Yilan is indifferent to the malicious speculations from the outside world - the situation has been decided, how can a few whispers do anything to her
Besides, she is raising her four nieces and nephews, Jiang Huihuan, Jiang Jingkun, Jiang Huibao, and Jiang Jinggui, with all her heart. In the past few years, the children have made many appearances, and she is not afraid that no one will turn around and praise her. This princess is really a virtuous aunt. typical.
What she is really worried about is the problems of these children themselves.
So I took advantage of these rumors to discuss with my husband: "There are a lot of things like this out there, and it seems that I didn't think carefully about it. I thought that there was no suitable person to take care of the two brothers in their house, so I took over as soon as the mother's affairs were over. . I didn’t explain it to the two brothers very carefully. Can you please explain it again?”
"What's there to explain? Brother Eight and Brother Sixteen both nodded. Don't take it to heart just a few outsiders' murmurs! If you go and talk to them seriously, you'll end up seeing them outside. Besides, the two sisters-in-law are gone, and the queen mother is no longer here. We can't ask our aunt to take care of this legitimate son and daughter. If we don't take over Dong Gong to raise her, that would be unkind of us!" Jiang Yashuang shook her head, "Don't worry about other children, Huan'er is ten years old this year, and when we give birth to motherly filial piety, When she is twelve years old, she will start discussing marriage! Even if the sixteenth brother renews his marriage as soon as he is born, how old do you think the girl will be to marry? "
Take Qiu Yilan herself as an example. She left the pavilion at the age of sixteen.
"When the time comes, my stepsister-in-law will only be three or four years older than Huan'er. What will she know? I'm afraid she will be busy learning how to be a princess, so how can she teach Huan'er kung fu? Huan'er doesn't know how to leave the cabinet, even if there is a clan She is a woman, but if she doesn’t know anything, she might be suffering secretly without even knowing it—how can she not accept her and let you teach her well? Now that she has accepted her, how can she favor one over the other, regardless of An’er, Bao’er, or Gui’er? ?”
What's more, "They grew up in the East Palace and got along with Lang'er and the others day and night. Not only did everyone get along with each other, there was always a friendship! This is something that is hard to buy when they grow up. It will be of great benefit to the children in the future!"
Although he said that his relationship with his cousins of the same generation was not very good, he still wished that the next generation could be as close as brothers—Jiang Yashuang was not exempt from this.
"Why don't I think so? I'm just afraid that these words will reach Bage's ears and make him feel uncomfortable." Qiu Yilan sat down next to her husband's desk, hesitated for a moment, and finally said what she said, "You know An'er, although We brought him up, but after all he was raised by his father, the emperor, and his mother, and he is Lang'er's brother. Now rumors are spreading that we are raising him because we are afraid that he will compete with Lang'er for the throne in the future. I don't know what to do at this moment. alright?"
She had always raised Jiang Jingkun as her own flesh and blood. She was pregnant on New Year's Eve and was not sure whether the person struggling in the lake was her son or her nephew, but she still jumped in without looking back. This shows that this nephew's status in her heart is actually no worse than that of Jiang Jinglang. —Since childhood, if Jiang Jinglang has it, Jiang Jingkun will have it too.
Moreover, according to the meaning of filial piety and the order of eldest and youngest, the best share often belongs to Jiang Jingkun. Jiang Jingkun was asked to pick the same thing first.
But the throne is different.
With the death of father and son replacing Jiang Yashuang, it is not like Jiang Yashuang has no sons. If the throne is passed on to his nephew, not to mention that the ministers will object, but how can Jiang Jinglang and other brothers be willing to do so
Haven't the Jiang family learned enough lessons in this regard
In the past few decades, the Jiang family has been in conflict with each other. Isn't it caused by Emperor Zhaode and King Ji's preference for King Dun for decades
Obviously I am your biological flesh and blood, why do you give all the benefits to your nephew? ! Even if he owes his father a debt, hasn't it been paid off after so many years? !
—I guess the children of Emperor Zhaode and King Ji all roared this in their hearts!
Having seen the tragedies brewed by the elders' favoritism in the previous two generations of the Jiang family, Qiu Yilan now truly feels that her attitude towards raising Jiang Jingkun is very questionable: "According to my original intention, of course, as before, I treat him as our biological son. Let him pick the good things first. After all, he is older than Lang'er, but don't blame me for being petty: I was thinking, was this how my uncle was spoiled?"
