Yun Fenghuang rolled his eyes and said tentatively: "I stayed in the palace for a long time before entering the palace, but I don't know much about the young talents in the Imperial Capital. However, my mother's brothers will arrive in the Imperial Capital in a few days, and they are all here to take the exam. Yes, those who came and went after settling down must also be Zhilan Yushu. If His Majesty allows me to reunite with them for a while, maybe I can inquire about it?"
Chunjia said lightly: "My beloved concubine left home at a young age and has not seen her flesh and blood relatives for a long time. It is pitiful. Although there has never been such a rule in the palace, I allow it to be done this time."
The emperor was not in a very high mood that night, so after saying this, he let the meal be served and settled in. Yun Fenghuang specially arranged for Yun Qingman to attend the bed. The emperor frowned slightly when he heard this. He didn't seem to like Yun Qingman very much, but Without saying anything, he finished drinking tea and went to Yun Qingman's house.
"Your Majesty, this matter is a little troublesome, so we'd better stay out of it." After he left, Qingdu and others came up to serve him, and whispered to Yun Fenghuang, "After all, both Princesses Minghui and Jinyun like Ji Minggan. Your Majesty just wants to break them up forcibly. After all, it is a golden branch and a jade leaf, but the others are not happy after falling. How can I not blame you? I'm afraid that it will be difficult for the prince-in-law's family to serve, and you will also be blamed for your troubles. "
Yun Fenghuang took a sip of tea and said An Ran: "Why are you avoiding me?"
She motioned to the two of them to check the doors and windows to prevent others from being listened to, and finally whispered, "I hope that the brothers who come to my family this time will be more ambitious and can win the favor of His Majesty and become the master!"
"Your Majesty?" Even though he was from the Qing capital, he always knew that this young lady of his was quite wealthy. Hearing this, he couldn't help being surprised and said in unison, "How is this possible!"
This is not because they underestimated the Xie family, but when Yun Qike, the eldest son of Duke Yi Guo, wanted to marry Yun Fenghuang, Duke Yi Guo and his wife looked down on the Xie family and refused to agree to it!
Even if the Tian family princess marries anyone, she will be in trouble, but according to the stipulated rules of this dynasty, the prince-in-law has always chosen only outstanding children from the noble family of important ministers - the Xie family in the north. Since the dynasty, the most prominent official has also been It's just a prefect, but it's still a remote lower house.
Such a little bit of background is enough to take charge of the local affairs. Isn't it too much to think of Princess Tianjia's descent
"How is it impossible?" Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes and chuckled, "If this had been before His Majesty took charge, you don't need to tell me, I would not have such a daydream! But now it has been spread throughout the palace that His Royal Highness Princess Jinyun is the same Regarding Ji Minggan's matter, His Majesty still plans to beat the couple, which shows that he wants to take the princesses' marriage into his own hands."
"Your Majesty has a lot of things to do. The harem has always been entrusted to the queen, and he doesn't bother to ask much. Why do you think he wants to personally take charge of the life-long affairs of several princesses?"
Qingdu and Qingren looked at each other thoughtfully.
Yun Fenghuang nodded slightly: "Of course it's for himself!"
She said sternly, "When Jiu chose your majesty to succeed the late emperor, he valued the single lineage of King Fuyang, and your majesty didn't even have an eldest sister who could support him. Now your majesty has finally gained the upper hand, and Enkodu After it was opened, and several sisters had grown up to be able to descend, how could he not take advantage of it?"
"But it's okay for Princess Kunze. After all, your majesty's biological mother, the Queen Mother, raised her up." The Qing people pondered, "But the three princesses all grew up in front of their mother, the Queen Mother, and they are called brothers and sisters with Your Majesty. In fact, the bloodline is far away..."
Yun Fenghuang said: "There is no problem with this. Except that Princess Minghui is the biological daughter of the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and it is difficult to abandon her biological mother and come to His Majesty's side. Princess Jinyun and Princess Penglai are not the biological children of the Queen Mother. Even though their hearts are devoted to their mother and empress dowager at the moment, after they descend, they will have their own princess palace and have children, and as time goes by, do you think they can continue to think about their mother, empress dowager, and the Ji family wholeheartedly, instead of thinking about their own family? consider?"
The most important thing is, "The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are not people who regard concubines as their own children. Even those of us who have just entered the palace this year can see this. Comparing their hearts, do you think the two princesses treat the Queen Mother and the Queen Mother? Can you treat your mother as deeply as your sister did? Didn't you see it when you entered the palace late? Among the three princesses, Princess Jinyun actually has the most outstanding appearance and the smartest temperament. However, as long as Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui is present, she will subconsciously hide herself. How dare you steal the spotlight from Her Royal Highness Princess Minghui."
"Privately, I have seen that the relationship between Princess Jinyun and Princess Penglai is actually closer, probably because they are in the same boat."
"And the biological mothers of these two princesses are still alive. They have been walking on thin ice under the hands of their mother, the Queen Mother, for these years, isn't it just for the sake of their daughters? When the two princesses are not here, they naturally have to teach the princess to please their mother, the Queen Mother, so as not to The marriage is planned. If it goes down, do you think they will continue to teach their daughters to be cows and horses for their mother, the Queen Mother?"
"The Queen Mother and the Queen Mother are not someone that the two princesses can rely on for the rest of their lives!"
"Especially this time, although we still don't know what happened at Shanyuan Temple. But with the status of the Queen Mother, even if Princess Jinyun and Ji Minggan did something shameful, she wanted to hide it , You really can’t hide it?”
"There are only a few concubines praying for blessings this time. They all have a sense of propriety and know what to say and what not to say! Although there are many other palace people and concubines, why can't they be killed for the sake of their reputation?!"
"If Princess Minghui had done this, I'm afraid not a single word would be leaked out - for this alone, even if Princess Jinyun is willing to thank her aunt for the marriage, Princess Jinyun's biological mother Wu Taibin will probably hold a grudge! "
After all, even if she is a princess, wouldn’t it be nice to have a man and a woman spend the night together in the same room before marriage
Princess Jinyun may have been too immersed in the joy of having her long-cherished wish come true and could not react. It would be strange if her own mother, Mrs. Wu, was not in a state of confusion, so she hated the Empress Dowager Ji to death!
Of course, Yun Fenghuang didn't care about the mood of the princess and her daughter. What she was thinking was: "Your Majesty doesn't want the children of the Ji family to become the master. One is that he hopes to use the princesses' marriage to win over people's hearts; the other is that he doesn't want to be the master of the Ji family." To increase the momentum... But the princesses have indeed reached the age of marriage. Even if His Majesty stops them this time, it is impossible to keep an eye on them, so they can only personally identify the candidates for the consort and finalize the matter, which completely dissuades some people! "
"He is now in charge of the government. If he wants to choose a prince-in-law among the nobles, it would be more convenient for him to come forward and find excuses to summon him or something, rather than concubines like me. Now he has entrusted me to it, and he obviously plans to be among the new scholars. I chose. After all, he is a majestic emperor, so he just wants to meet some important ministers and noble disciples. Why can't he summon the scholars one by one? This move is not only trivial and troublesome, but if it is spread, it will easily make people doubt the impartiality of Enke next year. "
Moreover, Yun Fenghuang speculated that the emperor wanted a consort who was not only a new scholar, but also someone with a good background.
This is a lesson learned from the previous Wei Changkong.
Wei Changkong came from a famous family and had a reputation as a child prodigy since he was a child. Therefore, although Xiaozong promoted him in every possible way, he left at the critical moment. Even though he has been criticized by others since then, he still escaped unscathed and his reputation has not declined so far.
Chunjia is not a fool. Now that she wants to expand her wings, why would she choose a master with such a heel
He would definitely choose someone from a humble family, and the more unaccompanied he was, the better. Those who were promoted in this way did not have a strong family background to rely on. If they wanted to rise to power and gain power, they could only rely on the emperor's appreciation.
Once the emperor fell into despair, they would not be able to do well either.
Such a close connection of interests is more reliable than any kind of swearing.
Yun Fenghuang made some analysis, and the eyes of Qingdu Qingren gradually brightened: "Our Xie family is known as a rich family in the north, but it is nothing compared with famous families like the Imperial Capital! It is not an exaggeration to say that we are a poor family..."
"It's a pity that our 18th Young Master has just got married." Qing Ren felt a little regretful. The 18th Young Master she was talking about was Xie Xiaoyu, Yun Fenghuang's youngest brother. "But among the young masters who came to take the exam this time, the 11th Young Master and the 20th Young Master The young masters are all unmarried, and they are handsome, upright, and dignified!"
"Brother Eleven..." Yun Fenghuang looked a little subtle when he mentioned the direct cousin of his second uncle's family. He stopped talking for a while and said with a wry smile, "I'll try to pass this on to my mother in two days."
Her eleventh brother Xie Fu is indeed handsome, tall, dignified, and has excellent academic performance, even better than Xie Xiliu. Is it just personality...
He can be called the most romantic person in the North.
Everyone in Qin Lou Chu Guan over there who looks a little bit familiar doesn’t know him...
The reason why he never got married was because he didn't want a wife to take care of him. The battle with his parents who forced him to marry could be written into a hundred chapters. When Yun Fenghuang left home, he even volunteered to escort his cousin. Coming from the Imperial Capital.
Of course, his main purpose is to come to the Imperial Capital to get female tickets...
Strictly speaking, it was just to see the flowers and plants along the way and have a great time in the Imperial Capital...
"Your Majesty still has some pity for the three princesses. Even if he wants to prevent others from saying that he treated Xiaozong's own flesh and blood badly, he will probably not consider Brother Eleven." Yun Fenghuang sighed again and again and said, "It's better to let mother Duo Just tell Brother Twenty-one!"
However, she could not remember clearly what kind of person Xie Wuzheng, the 21st son of the Xie family, was. This brother was from the eldest son, and his mother was the eldest son of the Xie family, who had been quietly deprived of the right to be the wife of the tomb by the Jiang family. Daughter-in-law, the relationship between the two wives is inevitably awkward, and they rarely interact with each other.
Although Yun Fenghuang and Xie Wuzheng are similar in age, there is a grudge between their mothers; secondly, men and women are different and cannot play together. Ever since we were young, we only went to greet our elders together during festivals and greetings, and we usually kept track of each other's news by listening to the excitement.
However, Xie Wuzheng seemed to have always been ordinary. Anyway, Yun Fenghuang had never heard of his story when he was at home.
But no matter what, when all four of his brothers are already married and it is impossible for him to be the master, it doesn't matter to Yun Fenghuang who among his cousins is the consort - even if Xie Wuzheng's mother is not the same as the Jiang family. Well, after all, it is a family - if a prince-in-law is born in the family, the lintel of the entire family is raised, and everyone is the beneficiary.
If the emperor and the princess take a fancy to Xie Wuzheng, Yun Fenghuang will never destroy it and will go all out to help.
When something happened to Xie Fenghuang, the two legitimate daughters of the Xie family entered the family temple. Of course, the parents were very angry, but they did not stop Yun Fenghuang from coming to the imperial capital to be married... The Xie family has a large population. It is of course impossible for everyone to be of the same mind, otherwise the Jiang family would not be competing for power with their eldest sister-in-law, and Yun Fenghuang would not be encouraged to compete with Xie Fenghuan for favor when he was a child.
But to be able to prosper to this day, we will still work together on major issues, rather than stumbling each other out of personal grudges.
Yun Fenghuang sorted out all the possible situations and asked the Qing people from the Qing capital to bring them to the Jiang family when they left the palace - yes, palace maids can leave the palace, and they see their parents' families more frequently than concubines. , you can leave the palace for a whole day in a month. However, Yun Fenghuang's previous attendants were not her own, so this sympathy was basically useless because she had nothing to do with the Xie family and the Lan family.
Now that Jiang has not gone back, Qingdu Qingren and his party have come, but it is much more convenient.
"Your Majesty, the Yizi medicine has just been boiled." Just as he was talking, there was movement on the stairs, and then Xie Hengyu walked in and said, "That's why I sent it to Yun Ronghua, but guess what happened? Lu Qintai People came running over in a panic, saying that something was wrong with Zhao Chenggui over there!"
"..." Yun Fenghuang was startled for a moment and frowned slightly, "Why did such a mistake happen to the imperial concubine again?"
He asked, "Has Your Majesty come over?"
