Yun Fenghuang smiled bitterly, nodded and said, "Brother Gucong Twenty-one and Dian Dong left the imperial capital. Are those confinement and the affairs of the former harem really..."
She told the story one by one according to the time of occurrence. Xie Wuzheng listened patiently until the recent episode about the tenth prince's accident, and then he slowly interrupted: "Is there anything the third prince can make a fuss about? "
"Does Brother Twenty-One also think he is suspicious?" Yun Fenghuang's eyes lit up, and he thought that this cousin was really a piece of rough jade, and that he was the source of the discord between the sisters, because the Jiang family took over The eldest sister-in-law has little power over the wife, and the Xie family's first and fourth houses have always been easy to pay, and both parties can pretend to be the same outside. Although the two heirs in the private house are brothers and sisters, they have never had any contact with each other.
So much so that she had never known Xie Wuzheng's talents when she was at home. At this moment, she couldn't help but smile like a confidant and said in a low voice, "I didn't realize it at the time. It's true that the Queen's people came to me two months ago to honor my loving mother." Regarding the matter of the Empress Dowager, I feel that the third prince is somewhat good. But there is a question whether it is a coincidence or not... Chen Jing is not sure yet. "
Xie Wuzheng said: "As for the third prince, my queen is not sure about his origin. How can I know if he is suspicious? I don't mean it. Since my queen wants to be the fifteenth prince, Bidong is very clear about it. If we want to establish a direct heir, then even if we fight for the fifteenth prince, we can't do it in a fair and just manner... Otherwise, there will be no good in wronging the empress or the fifteenth prince! Therefore, the third prince has something that can be used! "
Yun Fenghuang was startled, and his mind was spinning: "...use it?"
"Didn't your Majesty say just now that because of the concubines of the Sixth Palace, no one in the palace showed hostility except Your Majesty?" How could the daughters of the , Meng, and Ouyang families be coveted? Could they have entered the palace for the sake of being the successor? It was very sad to lose the throne, and at that time, they didn’t want to win back the victory with their heirs? "
He glanced at Yun Fenghuang and hesitated slightly, but he said it, "In my opinion, they are just pretending to be virtuous because they are afraid that the empress is standing in front of them anyway. Whenever someone makes a move, they will not follow." It would be strange to fall into a trap!"
"Therefore, I think it is good for the empress to keep a low profile and bide her time when she comes to the east."
"Only the fifteenth prince on the right is very young, so it's better to instigate others to cause some trouble for the two legitimate princes." "
"For example, the third prince is good."
"Although there are differences between the legitimate concubines, and the third prince's biological mother is very disliked by Bidong. But after all, they are both of the blood of the Tian family, and they have been raised together by the Queen Mother since childhood. I heard that the Queen Mother is wrong about the third prince. Can you have special pity? ’s... Then it’s okay for the third prince to be ignorant when he was a child. When he grows up, can he always remain calm when faced with such disparity in treatment? "
Xie Wuzheng sneered slightly, "I don't think so? Even if he is self-aware and can resist planning for the throne, does he not care about the queen? It is not natural for children to admire their parents. Especially the third prince does not dote on him. , for the third prince, the world is so vast, the only one who is sincere to him is the Queen. If the two direct princes are not the Queen's biological children, then they will be able to rely on themselves when they grow up, and they will not care about it. Considering the future of the family, the Empress will definitely spend more and more time with the two princes. How could she not neglect the third prince?"
"There is something I forgot to tell me just now." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "I see Bidong's intention, so I don't trust the queen. Ruming will leave the twelfth prince in the side hall of Taichu Palace to raise him. When will he be raised? It is not known whether she will return to the harem or not! When the two legitimate sons go to school in the future, Bhidong will probably not have to worry about it himself. By then, even if the queen wants to be a loving mother to them and cultivate the relationship between mother and son, I’m afraid there aren’t many opportunities.”
Xie Wuzheng said: "Your Majesty, because of this, the Queen is even more troublesome!"
He lowered his voice and said, "It may be said that giving kindness is worse than cultivating kindness, but the reality is that if we are related by blood, we are not related by blood!" You see, although Bidong is not the biological son of the empress dowager, he has been raised by the empress dowager since he was born. When have they been separated for a long time in those years? Is such love so profound? But could it be that the empress dowager, the loving mother of the Ming Dynasty, was forced to stay away from the imperial capital and returned to Fuyang County in disgrace? According to the rules of the palace, the emperor asked to move out of the harem at the age of ten and no longer live with the concubines. In other words, even the two legitimate sons could not be remembered in the name of the Queen and handed over to the Queen to be raised by the Queen. At most we get along day and night for nine years. With the love accumulated over the past nine years, can the Queen rest assured, and can Mrs. Gu rest assured? "
Don’t worry if Gu’s family is certain!
As a queen, Gu Zhen has no palace, is not good at intrigues, and has a brain problem.
Given the examples of Chun Jia and Empress Dowager Yuan, she couldn't think that she had raised the tenth prince and the twelve princes well for nine years. Should she treat Donglai according to the rules? In the future, one of the two princes would succeed her. If he takes the throne, he will treat her as wrongly as his own mother!
"Then let's work together to cultivate a better relationship." Xie Wuzheng continued, "It's just a matter of time and space for food, clothing, housing and transportation. Even if the queen herself doesn't think of it, she will remind her. But if the two legitimate princes Fo moved to the front. The Queen wanted them to continue thinking about her, but she spent more time on Fo than one or two. Besides, the third prince is a few years older than the two legitimate princes. When the time comes, Fo will inevitably The third prince moved out first. When the third prince moved out, the two legitimate princes were most clinging to the queen... When the third prince wanted to be jealous, there were so many times! Even if the prince was kind-hearted, but … As long as he is not a fool, how can a person not have emotions and desires?”
Yun Fenghuang squinted his eyes and smiled slightly: "Brother Twenty-One is right!"
She was somewhat aware of Hong Xie Wuzheng's intentions. From the perspective of the third prince, she definitely had no idea of the motives of the two legitimate princes.
Of course, just because you have a motive doesn't mean you have to do it.
However, just as Chunjia considers that he can let Zhonggong mother and son and Xuanqinggong mother and son live in harmony, but there is no guarantee that he will not be able to control the situation, outsiders come in to sow discord and even reveal the consequences. The two sides are likely to continue to maintain their original status. The situation is the same.
The third prince originally felt aggrieved and sad, but at that time if someone tried to instigate or induce...
Does he know how to be angry but dare not speak out
"There is an advantage to having the third prince join the imperial family." Xie Wuzheng added, "We all know whether he is the direct grandson of Marquis Minyang and the biological flesh and blood of Kang Jieyu... The remnants of the Ji family have not been eradicated yet, so the palace There is a lot of Empress Dowager in there. Who dares to say that in the palace confinement, the remnants of the old master are not very much missed?"
Therefore, the people sent to seduce the third prince could definitely use the banner of his biological mother’s old tribe!
Even if a flaw is exposed, as long as the legs and feet are clean enough, the blame can be passed on to the remnants of the Ji family.
"... Let me ask you, has your Majesty also suspected the third prince?" Yun Fenghuang pondered for a moment and asked slowly.
Xie Wuzheng was startled, and then said: "Ordinarily, we can think of Bidong Yingming and Shenwu, and Bidong will also think of it. But there is no movement from the third prince of the Ming Dynasty... "
"Is it possible that Bidong is taking a long-term approach to catch big fish? After all, as Brother Twenty-One said, the remnants of the Ji family outside the palace have not been completely eradicated, let alone within the palace confinement?" Yun Fenghuang said calmly, "What will happen to the third prince? Even if a child is filled with the hatred of his wrong brother and even tries to murder the tenth prince, it’s just that he didn’t notice it before. Now that he has noticed it, there is nothing he can do to prevent him. Deal with him rashly. Firstly, the third prince is young, so the queen must be soft-hearted; secondly, whether he is of Bidong's flesh and blood, and the tenth prince is fine, Bidong also has to consider whether he will be criticized because of this and ignore the feelings of flesh and blood. The most important thing is If not, it would be better to just keep quiet and ask someone to watch and see who contacts him!"
Seeing Xie Wuzheng frowning, she comforted, "Of course, Brother Twenty-One's proposal is not very good. As I said, Fifteen is very small, so let's wait and see first."
After all, if the emperor does send someone to keep an eye on the third prince for fishing, and they pretend to be remnants of the Ji family and go for a ride, isn't that a gift
"... It's true that the queen is thoughtful." Xie Wuzheng seemed to be thinking of that kind of cocoa, and there was a slight sweat on his forehead. He sighed softly and said, "Fortunately, there is a queen in the palace, otherwise, I am afraid that I will miss something important."
Yun Fenghuang was afraid that he would be disheartened, so he continued to comfort him: "Then why did I not think carefully? Then I just came back to the Imperial Capital, and I don't know many things. It is inevitable that there will be omissions."
Xin Dong smiled bitterly to himself, isn't that thoughtful
How many times has she tricked herself!
I don't know how to have a long memory, and I was very popular in those years.
If Chunjia likes her, doesn't that mean she is smart? If she occasionally makes mistakes and suffers losses, she can easily be pushed to a place where her family background is not as good as others, to gain sympathy and pity; if she suffers losses, the emperor will probably doubt whether she is actually a fool, and then lose interest. …
Thanks to her quick awakening and her ability to smooth things over.
otherwise…
The imperial concubine suppressed those bad memories and continued: "It was a coincidence that the twenty-first brother came back that time. My aunt acted as a matchmaker for the eighteenth brother with Miss Cui. It is said that they are a good match. The wedding date has been set, and we will wait until the eighteenth brother. The eighteenth sister-in-law, who is the leader of the brother, has a nephew who will come to visit her when her nephew is full. I was originally thinking about whether the Cui family was a high-ranking family, or if the eighteenth brother's relatives were missing, it would not look good. We came back, but we didn't You can make a face for Brother Eighteen."
"I've heard people mention that at home." Xie Wuzheng nodded and said, "On the way back to the Imperial Capital this time, the master of the palace is thinking about the storehouse, and he said that he must give Brother 18 a backup gift."
"How can I ask the palace owner to spend money?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head slightly, "Brother 21 should go back and show off to the palace master. After all, brother 18 is just going to renew his relationship this time. The scene was too public, and Jiang Shi was shocked when he saw it. I'm afraid I'll be sad... Kunze and his wife have always been in the Imperial Capital."
Did she mean to suppress the future eighteen step-sister-in-law when she said that
After all, Xie Xiaoyu was her biological brother with whom she had the best relationship, and it was just a matter of asking whether he was the master. Although the Miss Cui he married was considered a high-ranking person, in the eyes of Yun Fenghuang now, it was just that.
She didn't want Mrs. Cui to rely on her youth and background to suppress Xie Xiaoyu after she came into the family.
Is this not just a sister's preference for her elder brother? The most important thing is that if Yun Fenghuang agrees with this marriage, he can tie Cui Wan to him through this marriage instead of letting him go. When you become Cui Wan's helper, the priority cannot be reversed.
So since the wedding, she had been begging to beat the Cui family and let them know that in that marriage, she, Concubine Min, was the one who had the final say.
