After King Jin left that day, Qingren hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Empress, Your Highness, is this... a little too out of the ordinary?"
"My maid has no other intention. It's just that this is not the first time that Your Highness will kill first and then show off. Fortunately, the obstacles were not too big these two times."
"If this happens again in the future and it delays the queen's arrangements, what will happen?"
"What kind of escape is he doing?" Yun Fenghuang's expression was dull. He had completely lost the high hopes and pampering he had just in front of King Jin. He said in an indifferent tone, "It's just because he is the only one of his own flesh and blood in this palace. He has no fear. Just testing my bottom line."
She tilted her head slightly, and the golden steps on her bun swayed with a sharp cold light, and she said in a sweet voice, "After all, the Empress Dowager, a loving mother, has nothing to do with her knees. Her feelings for His Majesty back then must have come from the bottom of her heart. No matter what. So, after your Majesty's wings have hardened, why are you willing to obey the advice of your loving mother, the Queen Mother? When children grow up, it is inevitable that they will have their own ideas and will not be willing to obey. This is also human nature. It's just that some children have their own ideas since they were young. He likes to ask his elders to make the decisions for him, and he hopes that his elders will serve him, protect him, and let him do whatever he wants... I was such a careless child when I was a child."
"Now that I have the biological son of Prince Jin, I can repay the debt I incurred at that time."
"But you don't have to worry."
"Although I and my mother are biological mother and daughter, our temperaments have never been the same."
"My mother grew up in front of my grandmother. Although she was pampered and pampered, she also learned some virtues. I have been thinking about myself since I was a child. In order to achieve my goal, I even cheated my own mother. That's still Raising my dearest relatives who always care about me, let alone the King Jin who I worked so hard to give birth to and raise until now?"
The imperial concubine said calmly, "I have already prepared a lesson for Prince Jin. Before his wings are hardened, he wants to use his blood relatives to suppress me and surround him? I'm afraid he is not dreaming. He really thinks that I have been doing this all these years." His loving mother is really at his mercy!"
Are you kidding? After all, she gave birth to this son for her own future.
Instead of going through fire and water for this son!
Do you think that all elders of the bloodline are as reliable as the Yin Qu father and his daughter
Yun Fenghuang never thought of letting the King of Jin act for too long. Now he said this to the Qing people, and within two days he told the Ninth Prince how well he had done: "The Gu family has been deposed, and Xiao Shi is out. What about you?" Although the third brother was clever and managed to escape for the time being, I will not let him have an easy time next. But at this time, the courtiers will almost have to raise the issue of establishing a heir. I have many sons and heirs to choose from. The most suitable person to go is you child. It’s okay for you to be lazy as usual. If you can’t stand up now and cheer for me, and the princes from other palaces take power in the future, how many of us ladies will be able to do it? Can you live a good life?"
The Ninth Prince was horrified when he heard this: "Mother and concubine, your sons and ministers are stupid, but they are not useful?"
"Then what should we do?" The imperial concubine did not encourage her, but said slowly, "Maybe we ladies are destined to have a decline in fortune, so we just have to wait for death?"
Ninth Prince: "..."
To say that he didn't have that intention is of course impossible.
In an ordinary family, with a few acres of thin fields and three thatched huts, brothers would inevitably fight with each other and even turn against each other, let alone the position of the Supreme Being
Throughout the ages, those who became princes were at an ignorant age. Who wouldn’t care about them
Even if it was really unintentional, it's probably because he saw the situation clearly and felt that he had no chance, so he did it deliberately to avoid disaster.
If possible, why would you give up
Of course, the Ninth Prince also hopes to become the crown prince, to inherit the throne and rule the world in the future.
As the first prince in Yun Fenghuang's name, he was also the third prince raised by the Xuanqing Palace. The first one was the eldest son of the emperor, King Qin, so he naturally received a lot of attention from the emperor, empress, and even the previous harem; the second one was The seventh prince has a strong maternal family to take care of him; these two, as well as the eldest sister Princess Zhaoqing, have taken up most of the imperial concubine's energy.
Growing up, the Ninth Prince didn't get much attention from his mother and concubine.
Moreover, the emperor's younger brother is the only biological flesh and blood of the mother-in-law.
Although Yun Fenghuang was always kind to him, many of the waiters could not help themselves in ranking the emperors' heirs. There was no doubt that the Ninth Prince was ranked last.
The only people in Xuanqing Palace who are worse than him at present are the second princess who intervened halfway, and the youngest ninth princess.
King Qin, Zhaoqing, the seventh prince, and King Jin were all in front of him.
The mother concubine is also the Concubine Min with a great record. When the Ninth Prince was a little sensible, he felt that he had no chance, but his brother was still more likely. If that's the case, why didn't you clear things up earlier and preserve the friendship between mother and son, and brother and sister
In this way, even if I can only be the feudal king, my life will be easier at least.
Moreover, it is hard to say how to seize the heir apparent. If his brothers who were raised by his same mother failed, then he, a prince with "no ambition" who quit early, would be more open to the victor.
Of course, pure waste makes people feel relieved, but it is also easier to sacrifice.
In order to avoid this situation, the Ninth Prince also showed his abilities carefully.
But he never thought about going beyond King Jin.
After all, he understands the weight of blood relatives.
Who knew that this mother-in-law didn't follow the rules...
"Mother and concubine, although I am stupid, I hope to die for my mother and concubine." After hesitating for a moment, the ninth prince could not resist the temptation. He thought that even if his mother and concubine were fishing, he was raised by her, so he would not be in trouble. Just get killed for telling the truth.
If something goes wrong, kneel down and beg for mercy immediately.
He felt that no matter how cruel his mother-in-law was to outsiders, she was still very kind to juniors like him who had been with him for many years and watched them grow up, and she would never be too harsh.
At this moment, he whispered, "It's just that I am alone, but I don't know that my fifteenth brother..."
"He is too young. How many brothers have come before him, will it be his turn?" Yun Fenghuang interrupted him lightly and said slowly, "Besides, although I have not been considerate of you over the years, I have treated you as my own flesh and blood. Yes. In my heart, there is no difference between you and Fifteen."
Thank you all for the fact that I will be the tool of my future mother to take away from the world.
The earlier preference for fifteen was just because I felt that my biological son was more reliable in most cases.
But Yun Fenghuang's fate was not good, and she had a biological son with a similar temperament to her. Considering her own temperament when she was a child, she felt that the Ninth Prince was much more reliable than Prince Jin.
At this moment, he said some sweet words to the Ninth Prince, and finally said, "When you wanted Luo Di, the reason why I agreed was because, in addition to satisfying you, this child was also because of her birth and character - Son, you can support your dignity in the future. Otherwise, even if you say you like her, I may not agree."
The implication is that I was cultivating you as a candidate for the crown prince at that time.
The Ninth Prince was surprised and happy, he was no longer a three or four year old child. Heirs of the royal family are well-informed and have a deep city.
At this moment, Yun Fenghuang suspected that it was because his biological King Jin was too young and he was afraid that the officials would disapprove, so he used him as a shield.
Even if he was able to establish a heir apparent this time, he might still be forced by the concubine to give up the throne to Prince Jin in the future. However, the concubine specifically mentioned Luo Di and reminded him: "This prince's prospective fiancée is from a high family and is from the imperial capital." One of the most outstanding noble girls! She was originally cultivated by the Luo family to bet on the opportunity of the Phoenix Master in the future. The mother-in-law is willing to ask this prince to marry such a girl. If the high school of the Luo family is left in the hands of this prince... even if This prince does not have the ability to resist my mother and concubine now, but as my mother and concubine hinted, this prince is several years older than the King of Jin. He will get married within a few years, and he will have the support of his wife and family... Isn't my mother and concubine afraid that my tail will not fall off? "
"It's hard to say whether the mother-in-law will change her mind in the future, but right now she sincerely wants the best for this prince."
Although he has a lot on his mind, he is still young and has never experienced any serious hardships, so naturally he will not doubt this or that easily.
I can't help but have some naive illusions, thinking that even though Concubine Min is not my biological mother, she has raised her and has a deep love for her, and it is impossible not to take her life and future seriously.
Maybe this mother-in-law really treats her as her own son
He resigned with joy and worry, but the Qing people and other attendants were a little worried: "Empress, if you give up the King of Jin and choose the Ninth Prince, it will indeed bring a great blow to His Highness the King of Jin... It's just that, if His Highness the King of Jin follows him in a fit of anger, Are you censored?"
Although the result of their previous discussion was to do this. But at that time, there were a lot of comforts and explanations for King Jin to deal with the aftermath.
Now Yun Fenghuang deliberately beats his own son, but he doesn't pay attention at all.
"Prince Jin is a smart boy, he can't do it." The imperial concubine dismissed the Qing people's worries, "If he doesn't know the importance at all, then he has no right to say that he looks like me when he was young... How old is he now? What ability does he have to gain a foothold in the palace? To put it bluntly, what does he have that this palace did not give him? Based on his status as a prince, if he were not the heir of this palace, how could he be where he is now? Normally, this palace would dote on him. With his attitude, it’s okay for him to be a little mean-spirited. I’m going to support Xiaojiu to take over the East Palace. If he dares to make trouble, won’t he be more and more forcing me to go to Xiaojiu’s side?”
"The reason why I dared to make trouble when I was a child is because my grandparents were doting on me and my mother was soft-hearted?"
"Otherwise, if my mother takes care of me once, how can I still think about it?"
She said calmly, "These are all leftovers from my play. You know how to deal with me! Well, there is no need to talk about this matter anymore. Let me tell you, how is King Qin doing now? King Jin This little bastard just brings trouble to me day by day, but this time he has also brought big trouble to King Qin."
Although he said this, Yun Fenghuang actually didn't care much about the fact that King Qin accepted Gu Jue.
After all, the Gu family is already on the verge of collapse. Even if Gu Jue has some cities that have not yet grown up and are still fledged, there is nothing to be afraid of.
She didn't agree at first because she didn't want to be plotted by Mr. Gu.
"Replying to your Majesty, Your Highness King Qin agreed to His Majesty King Jin's wishes and kept you here. However, Your Majesty the Queen had previously ordered that Your Highness King Qin should not mess around before the wedding, so it didn't move her." Chie came up and said, "Now Gu Jue will She was placed in the wing room over there. She was sleeping well and didn't do anything. She stayed in the house all day long without leaving the house. She didn't ask anyone to say anything to His Highness King Qin or anyone else. In short, it was very quiet. .”
Yun Fenghuang nodded: "In that case, let King Qin take care of her. It may be useful in the future."
Chi'e then asked, "Well, now that I have taken it, what should Gu family do with it?"
"Of course I'm interceding with them." Yun Fenghuang sneered, "It's just one thing whether His Majesty will listen... By the way, send a message to Brother Twenty-One and tell Prince Jin that Why don't you ask Brother Twenty-one to mention the little bastard's suggestion to Mr. Gu?"
Everyone on the left and right were startled and said, "But how could Mrs. Gu agree?"
"Why didn't they agree?" Yun Fenghuang said calmly, "Both I and Brother 21 suspected that Mrs. Gu had harmed Mrs. Xie, but did Mrs. Gu admit it? I and Brother 21 showed it. Huh? For the sake of the family, Mr. Gu even gave his eldest daughter to the King of Qin as his concubine. Now I extend an olive branch and they don’t agree... Do you think I am a fool, or do you think your Majesty is a fool? "
It had to be said that although Prince Jin was nothing, and did not have the qualities she expected from a filial son, he was not slow in thinking.
It would be useful to change his mind.
