... Although Chunjia does not have a real Yuji Yunei now, he is no longer the child who trembles in front of Concubine Zhuang and trembles because of the look or change of tone of his elders. There is no need to be afraid of the Fuyang Yuan family, but But I feel that the showdown or whatever doesn't matter anymore.
It didn't matter to him whether the Empress Dowager Yuan truly loved him or Yuan Niang.
So after he cut off Yuan Niang's future in this palace, he generously proposed that she be promoted to the throne and Huzhu Palace be left to her.
After all, Empress Dowager Yuan had raised him with great care for many years. Since she couldn't bear to let go of her niece, she should keep him with honor and be filial to her mother.
Of course, this generosity is also the last one. If Yuan Niang still refuses to give up, Chunjia will not bother to give her another chance.
Maybe some people think she is innocent and wronged. After all, Queen Mother Yuan did not teach her well from the beginning, and Chunjia focused on improving herself, but mostly treated her perfunctorily.
Even if he tactfully guided her later, it was just to make his life easier. In fact, he had not sincerely thought about her.
But they seem to have grown up together. Even though they didn't spend much time together before they came to the throne, they can easily understand what each other is doing.
While he was sweating like rain and studying hard, Yuan Yuniang lived a relaxed and leisurely life, and occasionally made trouble for him.
She had never thought about studying with him, let alone worried that she was not worthy of the young feudal king who was born in a clan and worked so hard.
During this period, Chunjia felt jealous of Qi Jiulu several times. Because of the news that his people came back from the northern belt, Qi Jiulu knew it, and Yun Fenghuang basically knew it.
Although it may not be comparable to Qi Jiulu's mastery, it is at least as good as the ability to talk on paper.
So that when you are excited and want to share or show off with her, you will get a look of boredom or sneer.
If he had such a companion when he was young, he would get along day and night, share the same interests, and have the same mind. Even if his appearance is not as outstanding as Yun Fenghuang, he should be a little sincere to him, right
Therefore, Chunjia thought it was understandable that Qi Jiulu came to the Imperial Capital from the North after getting married.
People like him, who live under the protection of his aunt who is not his biological mother, and who fearlessly dare not slack off at all, feel that it is great to have a childhood sweetheart like Yun Fenghuang, let alone being surrounded by someone who has enough time and energy to grow up. Qi Jiulu, who considers the love between his children
If it were Qi Jiulu in his place, he wouldn't let go.
Of course, in the final analysis, the reason why Chunjia doesn't feel guilty for giving up Yuan Niang, or even caring about Gong Xiangzhuo, is because he feels that Yuan Niang's admiration for him is actually more similar to exclusivity or competitiveness stemming from a unruly temperament, rather than Genuine care and love.
Otherwise, even if Empress Dowager Yuan coaxed her and made her think that she could be a princess that everyone envied without having to work hard... why did she never bother to understand his preferences and taboos, and continued to cause trouble for him over the years
In terms of cruelty in the harem, the true concubine Yun Fenghuang is definitely on the list.
This is someone who can even be cruel to himself.
But so far, she has been trying her best to protect Qi Jiulu. Even though Qi Jiulu married the daughter of the Chao family whom she deeply hated, and the daughter of the Chao family was rumored to be pregnant... she was still afraid that he would be dragged down by his status as "the former fiancé of a true concubine."
Although Yun Fenghuang concealed it very well, Chunjia knew it well.
He had never thought about issues such as the sincerity between him and Yuan Yuniang. After all, when the Ji family was standing there, he could not even guarantee his survival, and he had no intention of caring about the love between his children.
Secondly, although he was regarded as a civil servant and a military commander, when he was in the palace, Queen Mother Yuan saw that there were no messy people or things around him; when he traveled around the fiefdom, his attention was also on the people's livelihood and promoting his virtuous name. , had no time to care about Fengyue; after he ascended the throne, the concubines in the palace probably had ulterior motives, and he was too late to guard against them, let alone being close to them... In short, the emperor didn't really understand what it meant to be in love with each other.
People inside and outside the palace said that he and Yuan Yuniang had been in love since childhood. He told her too much that he thought that he was indulging Yuan Yuniang and being as obedient and doting on her as possible, in exchange for her unabashed jealousy. Being arrogant and crying as you please is a sign of mutual love.
In the final analysis, although he did not have a very deep love for Yuan Yuniang because of Concubine Zhuang's words and Yuan Yuniang's unsatisfactory performance. But if you want to say how much you hate Yuan Niang... that's not the case.
I have a knot in my heart. We have been together for a long time since entering the palace, and sometimes she becomes hysterical. Compared to when she was in the palace, although she was unruly, but because of the honor and pride she lived, she was generally lively and lively, and she was not without sincere regrets.
But this lamentation is probably just like a stranger sighing after reading a story about a beautiful girl's fate.
Once the momentary emotion has passed, I give up.
As for being unforgettable or something, that's even more impossible.
For Chunjia, the most unforgettable thing in his life until now is undoubtedly the uneasiness he felt when he was young; the days and nights he endured fatigue and pain and worked hard to learn; perhaps there are also When he came to the imperial capital from afar to ascend the throne, there were all kinds of thrilling things that cannot be seen in the history books... All in all, in a situation where he felt that he had nothing to protect himself, who would have the heart to think about those charming feelings
So after Yun Fenghuang entered the palace, Chunjia learned about the concubine and Qi Jiulu.
He felt he had been cheated...
The so-called "Mother Neem in this palace is all about you" and "Mother Neem is no good, she just has a bad temper, but she is sincere to you", I'm afraid it was just what Empress Dowager Yuan said to fool him.
Is Qingmei's unabashed jealousy really for him as a person, rather than for his identity, honor, and the status and power he can bring to her
Yes, Yuan Niang said that she only wanted Gong Xiangji and her husband Ji - she would rather Chunjia had never ascended the throne and the two of them loved each other in Fuyang for the rest of their lives!
But she also took it for granted that after Chunjia took over, she should find a way to kill the Ji family and make room for her as queen, then dismiss the Sixth Palace and pamper her alone. It would be best to listen to her in everything.
Otherwise, I would be sorry for her efforts and grievances over the years.
She was pregnant, and she took it for granted that if she gave birth to a prince, he should be made the prince immediately - even if Chunjia had the patience to explain her current situation to her, it would be very dangerous for him to be crown prince, and it would be dangerous for the infant. The same goes for the prince. However, after hearing this, Yuan Yuniang only suspected that he was in love with someone else. She refused to agree to even "such a small amount" of her request, which showed that she had a change of heart.
Chunjia spent most of the night playing the flute in the palace to calm down, and then he could not restrain himself from immediately issuing an order to abandon her.
And that night, Yun Fenghuang, who also lost control of his emotions because of his childhood sweetheart, drifted down the river and got into trouble with him.
Chunjia, who was playing the flute to calm her mind at the moment, thought to herself: "The true concubine probably still feels that I didn't embarrass her too much about what happened that night because she is very eloquent and can hide it well?"
Actually not.
The reason why Chunjia didn't really argue with Yun Fenghuang, and at most tried to beat her up, was because that night, under Yun Fenghuang's repeated attempts to kill her, he figured out what was going on between him and Yuan Yuniang.
No matter how divine the family members were in the harem of the previous dynasty, no matter how sour Yun Fenghuang was when he tried to test them, they could not be changed. The so-called childhood sweethearts were more entangled in interests.
When the Empress Dowager Yuan compromised with the Yuan family in Fuyang, he compromised with the Empress Dowager Yuan; when the Empress Dowager Yuan did not need to compromise with the Yuan family, he needed to favor Yuan Niang with favoritism to win over the hearts of the Yuan family and the Empress Dowager Yuan, so as to prevent them from being in the Ji family. He rebelled under the pressure so that Duke Yi's palace would not be able to survive alone; now, he no longer needs Yuan so much, and even Yuan asked him in turn. Even the Queen Mother Yuan did not dare to make him the master of the family like she did when he was a child. , but after discussing and persuading him, he still didn’t want to fall out like this.
After all, the Empress Dowager and Empress Dowager Ji are still there.
Although Yun Fenghuang is capable, he has little experience and low seniority. He still needs the help of Empress Dowager Yuan to mediate and resist the pressure of the elders of the clan.
Moreover, after many years of mother and son, Queen Mother Yuan did not go too far, and he did not want to make the Queen Mother sad because of Yuan Niang.
He made his decision that night. Since he had no true admiration for Yuan Niang, it was hard to say how much Yuan Niang was truly sincere towards him. He had used her, and she had wronged him... After so many years, it was time to end things. .
After that, he basically never visited Yuan Yuniang.
The plan at that time was that for the sake of Empress Dowager Yuan, he would give her generous treatment, but the emperor would not let her raise her.
He himself grew up in a state of mind in which his grandmother disliked his father who had been ill for many years and was in vain. He could not get close to his biological mother and had to find ways to please his aunt. Only those who had experienced it would know the fear and bitterness in it.
All speculation is just a matter of watching from the other side.
And no matter what Empress Dowager Yuan thought in her heart, as Concubine Zhuang said, she actually treated him well.
At least she and Concubine Zhuang were so discordant that they never said a word against Concubine Zhuang in front of Chunjia.
But what about Yuan Niang
How would she teach her children when she was filled with grievances and resentment and never understood the basics
Chunjia didn't care that his children believed their biological mother's words and were full of resentment towards him. After all, to put it bluntly, he was definitely not the only one with this child.
He also had no intention of letting the Yuan family give birth to another queen mother.
There are so many people in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard. As long as the mastermind behind the murder of the emperor's heir is eliminated in this palace, he will have many children in the future.
If one or two of them don't get close to him, Chunjia feels that after there are too many children, he won't be able to take care of them at all.
When the time comes, he will be awarded a title and given some property. If he is really unsatisfied and treasonous, he can just give it to the prince he likes in the future.
After all, Chunjia's own experience and experience is that he hates people who don't seek to improve because of bad circumstances and complain about others - he has tolerated Yuan Yuniang like this for so many years.
How has he experienced such smooth sailing over the years
The reason why he is where he is today is because he worked hard enough... Anyway, that's what Chunjia thinks.
Why is it that the father doesn’t care for the mother? In the final analysis, it’s because he doesn’t live up to his expectations
The Zhenfei sisters are a clear example: they were taught by the same mother, and Xie Fenghuan was even more favored by the Jiang family because she was a concubine. What was the result? He didn’t know people well before marriage, and he entrusted others with wrongdoing after marriage. Not only did he not end up well, but he also brought trouble to two families;
Yun Fenghuang was also unlucky. With such a sister, her great future was ruined. Her childhood sweetheart and fiancée also took advantage of her mortal enemy, and she sadly ended up in the palace of Guochao, where she was not a real noblewoman and had no bright future.
How difficult was her situation when she entered the palace
It had only been a few months, and she was already the true concubine that everyone in the previous harem knew and no one dared to despise.
Even if her current status was deliberately promoted by Queen Mother Yuan and Chunjia, there are many people in the Three Palaces and Sixth Courtyard, and there are also a few newcomers entering the palace this year. Why didn't Chunjia mother and son think of other candidates
... In short, Chunjia felt that Gong Xiangzhuo was born prematurely and was destined to die young... Then he would die young.
In this way, the relationship between him and Yuan Yuniang was more clean. Even if the Queen Mother Yuan wanted to bring them back together in the future, there would be no need for children, which was a very difficult reason to deal with.
After seeing the child with his own eyes, he even felt that it would be better for him to die early. After all, living at this moment must be painful.
That pain reminded him of his biological father.
In the last few months of Fuyang Duanwang's life, he always wanted to die because he was too weak and his illness was so severe that he couldn't even take medicine to suppress it.
When had the pampered feudal lord ever suffered like that
He was lying on the hospital bed, pleading to Princess Zhuang, begging her to give him a glass of poisonous wine, a dagger, or heartbroken grass, or anything else, as long as he died early.
It's not like this, knowing that he can't live anymore, but he has to suffer in pain under the decoction.
Chunjia still remembers Princess Zhuang's expression at that time.
It is said that this grandmother vomited blood when she left the house... She really loved her son.
After all, are they biological
I don't know if it was due to his childhood experience, but Chunjia had rather strange ideas about children: on the one hand, he firmly believed that no mother would not love her own children, and this was natural; but in himself, In fact, I am not very attached to or care about my offspring.
Before he took office, when he heard that his concubine was pregnant, he was more worried than happy.
Now that he is in charge, from the perspective of the court, it is time to have a son or daughter to stabilize people's hearts, but Chunjia is not in the mood to look forward to having a son.
In his heart, he felt that if the emperor had an heir, there would be one, and if there was no heir, there would be no one. Anyway, Xiaozong had no children, so wouldn't he still be the emperor
At worst, he will be adopted like Xiaozong.
You can also choose to adopt someone you like.
Unlike biological children, good or bad, you can only raise them after they are born.
Anyway, as the emperor, he didn't worry about having no one to support him or take care of him when he got old; nor did he worry about having no one to take care of his affairs after his death, or to have no sacrifices during festivals.
In the future, whether the person sitting on the throne is his biological son or not, can he still neglect the Gongxiang family's Ancestral Temple? !
But Empress Dowager Yuan cared about the inheritance of bloodline. Chunjia felt that as a filial son, he should also care, at least verbally.
... Speaking of which, it was the Queen Mother's concern that made Chunjia suspect that Yuan Yuniang was indeed more important than herself in her heart.
But as I said before, he doesn't care now.
As long as Empress Dowager Yuan does not harm him, he will always be a filial son.
After being so filial that he unintentionally learned what sincerity means from Yun Fenghuang and Qi Jiulu, he continued to quietly learn from Yun Fenghuang how to use the advantages of the younger generation to control the joy, anger, sorrow, and joy of the elders, so as to get the results he wanted.
After all, the older I get, the more I feel that what Concubine Zhuang said back then was right.
When he had nothing, he sought advice from as many teachers as possible... Well, none of his teachers came to the Imperial Capital, and the imperial teachers arranged by Ji were all sour scholars who had lost their minds in reading.
As the saying goes, when three people are together, there must be a teacher from me. There are many concubines, so it is not a shame to steal the teacher from the real concubine.
Anyway, the real concubine doesn’t know.
Chunjia finished playing the song and slowly put down the jade flute. After thinking about it for a while, he felt a little worried. After all, Yun Fenghuang had always been cunning. After pondering for a while, he thought to himself: "I'll find another opportunity to mention Qi Jiulu tomorrow. In this way, The true concubine should be focusing on how to dispel my suspicions, rather than suspecting that I secretly learned her methods of dealing with elders."
As wise and powerful as he is, this kind of thing can be easily solved!
