Yun Fenghuang originally thought that Chunjia was not happy about Xie Xiaoyu's incident. This statement was both sincere and made for him to see.
At this moment, I noticed the emperor's hesitation, and I felt a little scared. I was worried that he might have a grudge. I thought about it and asked, "Your Majesty, is there anything that could embarrass Your Majesty in this matter?"
"Other than Ah Huang, who in the former harem can make things difficult for me now?" Chunjia shook his head and laughed at first, then straightened his face and said, "It's just because of Xie Xiaoyu's incident that I thought of some situations... Ah Huang Make an appointment with me first not to lose your temper."
Hearing this, Yun Fenghuang had already guessed a lot, and immediately said: "I and my brother have caused so much trouble for your majesty, how can you have the nerve to get angry with your majesty? Besides, your majesty is talking to me about things. It’s all for my own good.”
The emperor then said: "I have no other intention, I just want to know: Did the consort have close contact with Xie Xiaoyu when he was young?"
After all, he still loved the imperial concubine, so he still asked politely at this time.
"Reply to Your Majesty." Yun Fenghuang smiled bitterly in her heart. When she heard the news, she knew that Xie Xiaoyu would definitely trick her and Xie Wuzheng this time.
But I didn't expect that this kind of involvement would come so quickly.
Yes, Xie Xiaoyu killed his wife and children in order to cling to wealth. So if birds of a feather flock together, what kind of good things can his brothers be
The other brothers can just pay it off, the key is the wife of his cousin Xie Wuzheng, but Xie Xiaoyu missed the princess of Sui'an!
As the younger brother of Sui'an, how can Chunjia not worry about emotions and reasons
In particular, Sui'an did not live a particularly enviable life after she came out of the cabinet: she had no children.
No matter how passionate Xie Wuzheng was after hearing the news, in his mind at this time, having nothing to do was itself a huge unhappiness.
It is an irreparable shortcoming.
"Your Majesty, my biological mother, Mrs. Jiang, is the mistress of the fourth house of Xie's generation." The imperial concubine suppressed her anger and said slowly, "And Brother Twenty-one's biological mother is the mistress of the first house. Logically speaking. It is said that the mother-in-law of the main house, that is, my eldest aunt, should be the one in charge of the back house. But the eldest aunt was so weak that she was always bullied and kept in the dark, which led to many troubles in the back house. In the end, the eldest aunt was in charge of the back house. After inspection, my grandmother handed over the stewardship of the house to my biological mother."
"Originally, there was nothing we could do about it. After all, before Xie's death, the population was prosperous. Even if it was just the back house, there was still a large population."
"If there is not a competent enough hostess to take charge of the overall situation, it will easily become a mess."
"But the eldest aunt felt that this was a loss of face to her, so she never liked the fourth room very much."
"Of course, the eldest aunt is also a reasonable person and has not said any dissatisfied words... It's just that she has never been close to the fourth room, and she doesn't like her children, so she is close to the fourth room."
"Therefore, although Brother Eighteen and Brother Twenty-one are direct cousins, they really didn't have much contact before coming to the Imperial Capital."
Of course, these words were embellished and beautified. In fact, Mrs. Xie was in good health and had nothing to do with weakness.
The problem is that she does lack means, and Jiang is very ambitious. After entering the house, he caught the eldest sister-in-law's mistakes, quickly won the favor of her mother-in-law, and became the leader of the family.
How could the eldest lady of the Xie family like this sister-in-law
Before the disaster of the Xie family, the first and fourth houses were basically in harmony with each other, but this was certainly not because the first lady of the Xie family was "reasonable", but because the first lady of the Xie family tried to seize power several times, but was given up by Jiang. Packed up.
Yun Fenghuang, the eldest aunt, was just like the current Queen Gu Zhen, full of resentment but unable to fight at all. She was even criticized by her parents-in-law and husband for this. After weighing the pros and cons, she could only endure it.
She had to cover up for her sister-in-law externally, saying that her failure to become a family member was entirely due to her health and other reasons, and that Jiang's plans to seize power were all rumors.
After all, a wife who cannot control the power of the eldest daughter-in-law for her own reasons is regrettable but excusable; a wife who occupies the status of the eldest daughter-in-law and has given birth to several sons, but cannot defeat the younger sister-in-law who has just entered the family, how shameless is it
Yun Fenghuang thought about the truth and felt that saying so was not a lie.
Even if the emperor knew the inside story from the Imperial City Secretary, wouldn't he think she was lying to him
Sure enough, Chunjia listened, nodded slightly, and said thoughtfully: "Ahuang, do you mean that the consort will not be sorry for Sui'an?"
"..." Yun Fenghuang's heart sparkled, and after thinking quickly, she hesitantly said, "If I had known what Brother Eighteen had done, I would have firmly believed that Brother Twenty-one would never do it. Doing something that is sorry for His Highness! But... Now, I am not sure. Because I have always felt that I know Brother Eighteen very well, and I also know Brother Twenty-one. After all, they are related by blood, and they all come from the same family. , It’s up to oneself to save others, don’t you know what they are thinking? But the fact is, Brother Eighteen’s behavior makes me understand that people’s hearts are unpredictable.”
"My previous opinions were a bit too self-righteous."
After speaking, his expression became sad.
Chunjia pondered, feeling that the imperial concubine was telling the truth.
He thought for a moment and said: "Don't worry too much. In fact, when I look at Sui'an's consort's actions, although there is no lack of coveting for official career and power, it is also human nature. In fact, these ambitions are nothing. You know my thoughts best. : Because of his status as Sui'an's consort, I can't possibly treat him badly! Especially because your face is involved? But he must not wrong Sui'an."
The emperor sighed, "Ahuang, the late emperor only left three daughters. Minghui has been fooling around for all these years, and she may not be able to figure it out in the future. Although I hope she is well, but if... I can't be cruel! So Yun'an followed Sui'an must be well behaved, do you understand?"
Yun Fenghuang nodded solemnly.
Of course she understood that Xiaozong had three daughters, but Princess Minghui, the most noble one, was unmoved by Chunjia Jiaen and Yourong, and determined to make things difficult for the emperor.
Although the emperor had repeatedly been soft-hearted towards her, he was also ready to send her down to see Xiaozong if Minghui persisted.
In this way, Yun'an and Sui'an, who are more cooperative with him, must be praised.
Otherwise, when he was alive, outsiders would not dare to say anything.
When he is gone, history books will record this: Emperor Chunjia ascended the throne from Xiaozong, but none of Xiaozong's three daughters died well!
Or perhaps, the marriages of Xiaozong's three relatives and daughters were not satisfactory, and they were unhappy all their lives.
this…
Moreover, Minghui's consort had the highest status, but Minghui didn't know how to cherish it; after Yun'an's consort was a eunuch, the Zheng family collapsed, which already caused Chunjia to have a bad discussion; Sui'an's consort, although he was from a humble background, But he was born in a serious family, he was the direct cousin of a noble concubine, he was promoted quickly, and he had a deep love for Sui'an... He was actually the one with the best reputation among the three consorts and the least messy thing.
Even because of her previous promises such as not taking concubines and not passing on children, she had no intention of wavering even when she was expelled by the emperor in disguise, and she had a high reputation among the people.
Therefore, Chunjia couldn't help but worry about what Xie Xiaoyu did, since Xie Wuzheng was also a piece of cake.
By that time, it can be said that none of Xiaozong's three daughters will have a good marriage.
You said that one or two of them married inappropriately, and you also said that people's hearts are unpredictable, and that the emperor is young and his eyesight may be a little lacking.
None of them got married well. Who can help but think that this was done intentionally by the emperor? ?
After gaining the throne of someone else, forcing his wife to death, and neglecting his own mother, he didn't even make arrangements for his three daughters. This is too immoral!
So Chunjia is actually more worried than Yun Fenghuang that Xie Wuzheng will kill Sui'an.
Although the two emperors and concubines knew in their hearts that Sui'an's identity was not comparable to that of Xie Jiang, and Xie Wuzheng was not an idiot like Xie Xiaoyu... But, who called Xie Xiaoyu Xie Wuzheng's cousin
What if Xie Wuzheng is confused? ?
Chunjia even took the initiative to hint: "Earlier, the prince-in-law once said that he was willing to guard Sui'an until he grew old and did not care about his children... It was just that in the first two years, Sui'an himself was worried all day long. Later, he took over two girls from the Xie family. It's much better if I keep it. In fact, I feel that the consort was also young and energetic at the time, so what he said may not be taken seriously. Yesterday, Concubine Shen sent someone to tell me that there were two people in front of her. In fact, the young palace maid was originally prepared as a dowry for Sui'an... The two palace maids have been examined by the imperial doctor, and they are both Yizi's. If the consort does not dislike it... "
"Your Majesty, since Brother Twenty-One is still in the period of filial piety, it's not appropriate to talk about this." Yun Fenghuang's heart became heavier and heavier as he listened. Not only because of the emperor's suspicion, but for the sake of Sui's safety, he took the initiative to relent and let Xie Wuzheng Taking concubines, even to the point where concubines are ready.
It was also because this result made her even more suspicious of Xie Wuzheng.
If Xie Xiaoyu hadn't shown up like this, who would have suspected that Xie Wuzheng was not good or even harmful to Sui'an
Without this suspicion, who would allow Xie Wuzheng to break his promise, be it Mrs. Shen or Chunjia? Even if he agreed in his heart in the future, Xie Wuzheng would still be in debt to Sui'an on the scene.
But now, Shen Taibin, Sui'an's biological mother, has even prepared a man for her son-in-law!
All he had to do was tell Xie Wuzheng directly: "As long as you don't hurt my only daughter, we can discuss everything from taking concubines to having children!"
Of course, this kind of compromise must be what Shen Taibin meant.
Chunjia said something in agreement with the concubine, but she didn't know what she was thinking in her heart.
Anyway, Yun Fenghuang didn't think anything about Xie Xiaoyu's matter. The mastermind behind the scenes was Xie Wuzheng. After Chunjia found out, Chunjia would let Xie Wuzheng live...
In fact, even she couldn't tolerate it!
After calming down, Yun Fenghuang said softly, "Secondly, Brother Twenty-one really respects His Highness. Otherwise, why did he only adopt girls and not consider male heirs? Of course, I don't dare to give him anything now. I'm sure, but your Majesty, please think about it, Brother Twenty-one was young and frivolous back then, how old is he now? At least for now, Brother Twenty-one treats His Highness sincerely. If you tell him about this, he will definitely object. .”
Xie Wuzheng has a brain. No matter whether he did something or not, he would definitely object at this moment.
