"The Empress Dowager the Mother..." The Queen frowned slightly, exchanged glances with her left and right, and sighed, "Jue'er, I am young and I don't even know many things. The Empress Dowager the Mother... Let me just say that, my master, I will not take revenge. Our family is pretty good, but as for helping us in turn, that’s absolutely impossible.”
"It's hard for a mere mistress to let the empress dowager reveal some of the things that happened back then."
Gu Jue was startled, wondering if she really didn't know about the eighth prince.
After all, when the incident first broke out, she couldn't even speak.
Moreover, Gu's role in it is not considered glorious, so naturally it cannot be publicized.
The eldest son and grandson of the Gu family are likely to hear a few words when discussing matters with their elders. A girl like her would have no chance of hearing those secrets.
Hearing this, he thought for a moment and did not ask further questions at that time. He said calmly: "Auntie, even so, we must not neglect the Sixth Prince."
"Have you noticed? There are many heirs in front of the imperial concubine, but not to mention the princesses, which of the princes is not remembered by His Majesty the Emperor?"
"In terms of Ziren's character, they are not necessarily better than the princes in front of you."
"Of course it's because the concubine is favored, but Bidong is very resourceful. If the concubine hadn't deliberately introduced him, how much energy do you think Bidong would have given to those princes who are not actually outstanding?"
"The Ninth Emperor's Daughter is a clear example. It's not a bad thing for the imperial concubine to fault her, but among the imperial concubine's many descendants, she is the one who has no impression on Bidong and Chuang Qu."
"Doesn't that mean that when the Ninth Emperor's daughter was born, the imperial concubine was not short of heirs at all, and she had her own biological flesh and blood, so the Ninth Emperor's daughter didn't care so much and didn't bother to make arrangements for her?"
"Otherwise, if Zhaoqing's temper is not helped by the imperial concubine, how could he be so favored and favored by Bidong!"
The queen was silent.
To be honest, her niece's words made her a little embarrassed.
Because even though Gu Jue didn't say it directly, he meant it euphemistically that the queen would not cultivate the children of her neighbor.
Although that is not true, it can be taught to a junior. If the junior of his child said that, Gu Zhen felt a little embarrassed.
So she tried to explain: "Bidong's most favored ones so far are King Qin and Zhaoqing, the two eldest sons and daughters of Bidong. At that time, Bidong had been married for many years and had nothing to do. They were the first children. Naturally, He was particularly doting on her. But after the two of them, the second prince and the third prince were born from the daughter of the Ji family, so they were naturally alienated by Bidong. To the east, the second prince's adoptive mother at the time, Concubine Jing, was suppressed by the imperial concubine. The fourth prince went there Early in the morning, something happened to the King of Chu not long after he was harmed. I also know the nature of the three emperors' daughters...Bidong looked at the palace. For quite a few years, except for the eldest son and eldest daughter, there was nothing suitable for his father. Heirs."
"Later, although Didong's children gradually grew up, Bidong was also won over by the eldest son and eldest daughter. Looking at the other children, it was just the same."
In short, it's not because she doesn't work hard, but because of the general environment.
"..." Gu Jue twitched the corner of his mouth, and said gently without arguing with the queen, "I see, my aunt has really worked hard in those years."
In the end, she did not give the queen a chance to continue complaining, and slightly sped up her speech, "Auntie, in short, all the princes in the Xuanqing Palace are in the heart of the emperor, and they have a reputation in the previous dynasty! My niece, if you have a bad word to say, Even if the imperial concubine’s own Prince Jin has a bad relationship, the imperial concubine will finish crying and continue to cultivate other princes. How can they argue with us? But in front of my aunt, although Ru Ming didn’t say it clearly, everyone recognized it. Brother, I have that hope! What should I do if my tenth cousin makes a mistake in the future? The Yanfu Palace is in the east, and even the Gu family, what should I do?"
The queen's expression changed slightly and she shouted: "No nonsense!"
"No, my niece knows her mistake." Gu Jue admitted her mistake without any sincerity and continued, "But even if nothing happened to my tenth cousin, please think about it, auntie, two years ago, my tenth cousin dared to do it in front of my aunt. I feel heartbroken. That Ping family. When he becomes powerful, who can guarantee that he will continue to respect and be filial to his aunt? You must know that although your Majesty dotes on your concubine, he will not respect your aunt. Since your niece entered the palace, she has not listened. I have said that Bidong doesn't like the behavior of the tenth cousin to get close to the Ping family. But if that is the case, has the tenth cousin restrained himself in the past two years? Can he violate the Ping family's filial piety in secret? Isn't that too little? "
"My niece knows that my aunt has a generous nature, and she also knows that Mr. Ping is a well-measured person."
"Auntie, my tenth cousin, it's obvious that you have no sense of propriety!"
The queen felt very uncomfortable, but she did not hesitate to say: "Xiao Shi was indeed spoiled by me, but he has learned a lot in those two years. He is very young, and from now on..."
"In the future, Tenth Cousin will be even more showy and domineering." Gu Jue interrupted the Queen rudely, "If you don't talk about anything else, let's just talk about the things that Tenth Cousin secretly did wrong to the Emperor of the King of Chu. Auntie really doesn't know? Ten My cousin took Cousin Jing with him to make fun of Chu Wang Diandong. It can be seen that in the past, he would do more such things alone! It is true that Chu Wang Diandong has been stupid for many years. Not only can he not do anything for his aunt, but he has not asked his aunt to worry about it. But Why did my aunt mistreat King Chu's Diandong? Even my niece, who had only entered the palace two years ago, knew that her aunt had always been very sympathetic to King Chu's Diandong! Of that point, the tenth cousin didn't know about it? But he was always fighting against other emperors' heirs. Privately venting his anger on Prince Chu Diandong..."
Gu Jue sneered, not hiding his disdain, "To put it bluntly, if nothing happened to Prince Chu's Diandong, would he be qualified for you, my aunt, to raise him personally?!"
"Not to mention having the status of a legitimate son and the support of his Gu family!"
"Even if my aunt keeps a dog, after many years of coming east, she should know who is the owner!"
"Tenth cousin, no, the tenth prince has been unscrupulously violating aunt's magnanimity... Aunt, you have a good nature, but that's not the reason why he stamped his nose in the face, isn't it?"
"It's just such a thing. Even he can't see that he has wronged him, wronged you, and wronged Gu in taking the throne."
"No matter how much my aunt wants to be a loving mother who cares deeply about her, don't she still feel sorry for Yidong's niece and her relatives who are related by blood?"
The queen felt a little sad at first, but when she heard this, she thought it was good. She couldn't help being shocked and said: "What should I do?!"
"My niece is not talented. After returning home for the first time, she boldly asked to see her great-grandfather. After many discussions with her elders, Ruming has received the family's promise." Gu Jue looked at her calmly, "Ms. Gu is determined not to support ten people anymore in the future. Prince, unless my aunt is wrong, all princes except the third prince will be treated equally... Although I don’t know why my aunt is obsessed with the tenth prince, but you are not qualified to let the entire Gu family deny your virtuous reputation. After all, the queen is not You fought for it yourself, right?"
"Miss Jue!" The waiter scolded, feeling frightened, "How could I shut up your Majesty like that!"
"My niece is aware of her mistake." Gu Jue's attitude was very good, but also very firm. "My niece is young, and it is true that she was wrong about many past events. But my niece is not confused at all: from the past to the present day, everything is right. The prince begged our Gu family, should he try every means to please his aunt, should he try every means to win the support of his Gu family... When did Qiu become his aunt's empress? He was always tolerant and looked after cousin Jing. The daughter-in-law of the family mistakenly deliberately flattered her and begged him, Gu family, to surround him everywhere?!"
"Does he have a bright moon? It's because he is the prince of my aunt's name."
"Isn't it because of himself!"
Gu Jue said calmly, "My aunt is kind, so he never sees it. Or she pretends to be confused when she sees it. But my niece is young and energetic, but she can't tolerate it!"
I wonder if she is a noble person at home. When she comes to the palace, she is just a lowly child among the princesses. The ten princes are nothing if they are raised in front of the queen. They are also worthy of her favor. he? !
Gu Jue thought of the Xie family daughter in front of the imperial concubine, whom Princess Zhaoqing had treated politely, but his niece, the queen, instead wanted to please the tenth prince who had been humiliated by Princess Zhaoqing and dared not express her anger in person, and felt that There is nothing wrong with the whole body! Very good, her aunt is old and confused, but the Gu family behind the two aunts and nephews is not confused.
"That's not a good thing." Gu Jue didn't care about Gu Zhen's anger after reacting. He took a sip of tea and said to himself, "Although the ladies of the Xie family are protected by the imperial concubine, the imperial concubine arranged to go east , they had no room to refuse. After all, the imperial concubine is such a powerful aunt. If his aunt had five abilities like her, he would not even dare to have the idea of playing tricks with her. And since his aunt is not clear, , wouldn’t it be convenient for him to gain support from his family and seize power!”
Thinking of Yun Fenghuang's achievements back then, even at her age, what she heard may not be the complete truth and was somewhat modified, but it was enough to make Gu Jue's heart surge.
Although the Qunqin clan is obviously not what it used to be, and its popularity has dropped significantly, no matter how bad it is, it is still better than the Xie clan back then!
Yun Fenghuang was able to survive, so why couldn't she fight to the death
Even if I lose and my skills are inferior to others, I am still willing to admit defeat.
It's better than following the elders' arrangements in a daze and not knowing how you died!
… When Gu Jue forced Gu Zhen into the palace, Yun Fenghuangze, after some deliberation, called the King of Qin, the Seventh Prince, and the Ninth Prince to come to him and asked them their opinions on the marriage: "Is there a girl we are compatible with here at Wenhui? "
King Qin coughed dryly and said, "It's fine as long as the mother-in-law makes the decision. She likes the sons and ministers she chooses."
The seventh prince said the same thing.
The Ninth Prince said excitedly: "My concubine, I heard that the young lady from the Luo family named Luo Di is good at dancing and eloquent, and at a young age she can assist her sister-in-law in destroying the back house. Is everything in order?"
"Shut up!" Yun Fenghuang's motherly and amiable face turned into indifference in an instant, "My two brothers have no choice, so it's my turn!"
That unsatisfactory thing!
I really thought he had just said it before. He really wanted to find a worthy concubine, but he had been so lazy all his life? !
"Mother and concubine, I am sorry that Miss Luo Di has no idea." Although she immediately scolded him, the Ninth Prince did not care at all and just smiled playfully, because, as far as the relationship between the imperial concubine and his children was concerned, King Qin immediately Expressed his position, "Since Ninth Brother likes it, then give it to Ninth Brother."
The Seventh Prince also said: "My son also saw Miss Luo Di that month, and she is indeed a perfect match for Ninth Brother."
Anyway, even if they think Luo Di is good, they don't really want to marry her.
If the ninth prince of Ming Dynasty asked for help by name, how could he, his elder brother, argue with him
Yun Fenghuang hated the fact that iron was not made of steel: "We think he really likes Luo Di? He really misses the master's ability!"
"Mother and concubine, as the saying goes, marry a virtuous wife." King Qin advised, "The ninth brother's behavior is not justified. Besides, Miss Luo Di comes from a famous family and has both talent and beauty, so she is worthy of the ninth brother."
The seventh prince helped: "No, my concubine, although the ninth brother is a bit lazy, he can only act coquettishly in front of his mother and concubine. After all, how can sons and ministers be the same in front of their mother and concubine as well as outside? Then Miss Luo Di's background and appearance are just right for Ninth Brother. Ninth Brother likes her, so isn't it a perfect match?"
"We will pamper him!" Yun Fenghuang said angrily, "Xiao Jiu is not like that, and Shi Fifteen is not like that. They are all spoiled by us, and they don't take my words to heart more and more. !”
"Concubine, how could this happen? Of course my sons and ministers will listen to you." The seventh prince went to say, "Ninth brother and fifteenth brother too! The two brothers are usually naughty, but do they know that my concubine loves us? I won’t argue with us. Otherwise, how could you really dare to make your mother and concubine angry?”
Yun Fenghuang is on the bright side, but the children are all very good.
But he has always been more willing to accept the advice of the seventh prince.
This is certainly because of the Yin family, but also because the seventh prince is indeed a considerate child.
At that time, the seventh prince pulled him into sweet talk, and finally relaxed his brows, and hummed: "Xiao Qi Ruming has also become bad, Jian Tian is helping the brothers to fool me!"
After all, he agreed to Dong Lai, "Then I'll send someone to discuss Luo's comments later."
The Ninth Prince immediately stepped forward to pat her back and squeeze her shoulders, and said diligently: "I know that my mother-in-law loves us the most!"
"I'll get out of here!" Yun Fenghuang sneered, "I've never been so diligent in normal times. It was then that I was asked to be the concubine. I became filial like that. Isn't that shameless? What about the xuan thing! After two years of serious marriage, I have to marry a daughter-in-law and forget my mother?!"
Did she feel the sadness of the loving mother Queen Mother in advance
