This conjecture is bound to be fruitless.
But because the matter was a bit serious, when Zong Cong came in the evening, Pan'er's face inevitably showed a little bit.
Zong Cong didn't say anything at first, but when he finished his meal, he asked Fu Lu to read some notebooks, but he saw that Pan'er was flipping through the notebooks in a daze.
Turning a page in half a day, obviously not thinking about it.
He put down the pocketbook.
This time, Pan'er woke up, glanced at him, and saw that he was serving tea, and then returned to the scripture book, but Zong Cong put the tea cup, but asked someone to move the kang table aside.
In this way, there is no block between the two.
"Why didn't you get your notebook today?"
This sentence obviously does not refer to the notebook in her hand, but the notebook she wrote. But with so many things happening recently, one after another, how could Pan'er have the heart to do this, besides, she was just using it to pass the time when she had nothing to do.
She snapped her fingers and said nothing.
"Is there something you want to tell me?"
That's true.
Pan'er hesitated for a moment and asked, "Why did Your Majesty confer the title on father?"
Zong Cong was not surprised that she would ask such a question, she has always been sensitive and transparent.
You must know that when Mrs. Cheng Enhou said that, it was a lie that Zong Cong was not angry at the time, but he was used to hiding his emotions, and he didn't want to let the scene get out of control because of his emotions.
But after returning to Qianqing Palace, he made such a decree.
After the decree was issued, he also thought about it alone, whether it was right for him to do so, but he would always think of the way she knelt down with tears in her eyes just now in Kunning Palace, and Madam Cheng Enhou's distorted face Howling.
Feng Su's family has long been planned, but how to seal it so that it will not affect the overall situation, this is what he has considered a long time ago.
According to his previous plan, it was just right to be a general of the town, so that the courtiers would not over-interpret it, and it would be regarded as giving the Su family an identity.
It stands to reason that he should be given a title, but because he was dissatisfied with the queen, he only conferred the title of Marquis of the queen's mother's family. Naturally, the noble concubine should be the next class. Because of the recent disturbances in the establishment of the crown prince, the second class is the most appropriate. But by such a coincidence, Mrs. Chengenhou dared to say in the palace that Yuanyuan was a pheasant and that the Su family was settled in a shabby household.
In a rage, he simply mentioned the earl.
The Marquis and the Earl are only one class behind, but in the current situation, it will be interpreted as that His Majesty is only in the next class because of the Queen's face, otherwise he should be a Marquis.
This kind of interpretation is fine in normal times, but it is likely to cause a lot of trouble at a time like this.
He had also thought about the matter, the decree had already been made, and he would have no regrets if he said it, but he never expected that after the arrival, she would be worried instead.
"I'm not even worried, so why are you worried? You can just treat me as a confidante who is angry at the crown."
There was a smile in his voice, but Pan'er was ashamed by what he said. Bully went up and touched the dragon pattern on his chest, lowered his head and said: "You didn't wear a crown at the time, and besides, I'm not a beauty."
"I'm just making an analogy. I didn't expect you to be so thoughtful. I didn't worry about it, but you did. Could it be that you are not happy that your father was named Earl?"
Pan'er took a good look at his mood, cast a glance at him and said, "Naturally I'm happy. I'm not afraid of making things difficult for you. You've already disgraced the empress today, and even asked Mrs. Cheng Enhou to go to Su's mansion to apologize. Turn around I'm being made an earl again, I'm afraid the Empress Empress won't think well."
As soon as the queen was mentioned, the smile on Zong Cong's face faded.
"You only care about whether she thinks well, why don't you think about yourself? If I didn't know that you have always had a temper, and if you still have a bad temper, you would play rough in front of me."
"No, I'm afraid that it will affect the government affairs." Pan'er said the last two words very lightly. Zong Cong never talked about government affairs with her before. Although there are more now, it has nothing to do with the establishment of the crown prince.
The topic of Prince Li is too sensitive, she won't touch it easily, for fear of touching his bottom line.
Zong Cong gave her a complicated look, patted the hands around her shoulders, and rubbed them again: "Okay, I'm not worried, what are you worried about..."
Yes, he is not worried, what is she worried about.
She let out a long breath, looked at him and said: "You said that, anyway, when the sky falls, you will be on top."
As she was talking, she laughed herself, because she was laughing at the scene in her mind where he was supporting her in front and she was hiding behind him.
She smiled, and he laughed too, and poked the tip of her nose and said she was naughty.
Just as Empress Chen was worried about, this matter really spread quickly.
There was a lot of rumors outside, saying everything, but without exception, there were very few people talking about Su Guifei and the Su family, most of them were talking about the queen and Mrs. Cheng Enhou.
After all, everyone knows that Concubine Su Gui’s background is not good, so Concubine Su’s mother’s background is also not good. How much can you ask of a rough woman in the market
Human nature is like this, if you stand in a position where he (she) can't reach, he will only look up to you, but one day he suddenly finds out that a person with such a high status is nothing more than that, the bad roots in human nature will explode, and he will Talk about your scandals endlessly to achieve psychological satisfaction.
Of course, it is unavoidable that some caring people deliberately disrupt the situation, that is another matter.
This incident had a huge impact, at least for the Chen family, even with Chen Jian's status, there were courtiers who were acquainted with him and talked about it like a joke.
Originally, the Chen family has been making efforts recently to mobilize the courtiers to persuade His Majesty to establish a crown prince. Now that you want to talk about serious matters with others, if they tell you about your daughter-in-law or younger siblings, you can imagine how Chen Jian and Chen Pingwen feel.
Normally, men don't care about women's relatives. This time, both father and son made an exception and asked Chen Pingwu to take good care of his daughter-in-law.
What to do
Chen Pingwu doesn't even want to see the second wife now, and since the trouble came back to the house, the second wife has been recuperating in the Yunxia courtyard behind closed doors, staying at home.
But his father had spoken, so Chen Pingwu could only follow suit and went to Yunxia Courtyard. Unsurprisingly, the husband and wife quarreled again.
It's time for the old lady to show up.
Now that the old lady is getting older, especially as her health has gotten worse in the past two years, she doesn't care much about the affairs of the house. I didn't expect that she could cause so many troubles just by making an eye shot.
She called the second wife to Rong'an Hall, from the current situation to the Queen's situation, etc., only Xiaozhi could persuade the second wife to agree to go to Su's mansion to apologize soon.
In any case, this can more or less save some of the situation.
After the second wife left, Mother Yu sighed a little: "It's too much trouble for you to worry about it."
The old lady patted her hand: "As long as I am the old lord of this mansion, I have to take care of it for a day. Look at how long I haven't taken care of it. There are so many troubles. When I die Now, even if there is anything else, I can't control it even if I want to."
"Don't say such things, you must live a long life."
The old lady laughed a little, people must be self-aware, her body has deteriorated like this in just a few years, and she doesn't know how many years she can live.
Thinking of this, I naturally thought of some things in the mansion.
"The eldest daughter-in-law is quite clear, but she has an affair with me and the second daughter-in-law. She resents me when I strongly advocated marrying the seventh girl into the East Palace, but I didn't choose the ninth girl. Now that the nine girls are not doing well, what can she do?" Will reach out to take care of the mother and daughter of the second bedroom.
"Why doesn't she think that if Jiu Yatou is chosen, not to mention that Jiu Yatou is not old enough, she will not be able to give birth to a royal heir after marrying, how can she wish for the empress, and Qing'er's father has a high official position, unlike the second child who is indifferent to fame and fortune Well, if Qing'er is really chosen, how can the Supreme Emperor agree to it? In fact, the Chen family had a tacit understanding with the Supreme Empress long before, and it would be most appropriate to choose the daughter of the second room, but she just couldn't see it .”
Mother Yu also knows about these things, but she can't intervene in this matter. She can only comfort the old lady and say: "The eldest lady also resented for a while because of the difficult life of Miss Nine. After a long time, she herself I can figure it out."
The old lady smiled helplessly and said nothing.
This is an indistinct fuzzy account. At the time, I thought that Qiyatou's identity and age were suitable. Of course, the tacit understanding in private... cannot be made public. It can only be said that she is of the right age, so that she can give birth to the emperor after marrying her. He can also quickly stand firm.
Who knows that Qiyatou is a disappointment, she hasn't given birth to a son for several years, and because of this, the eldest daughter-in-law often secretly sees jokes.
After a long time, things faded away, and who knows that the nine girls lost their husbands again, and the old things were brought up again, so that the eldest daughter-in-law didn't want to get involved in the matter of the second wife. The sister-in-law made a joke and offended people terribly.
"Forget it, I just hope that she can be more obedient this time, and handle the matter of going to the Su Manor to apologize, even if it's not for my safety, it's for her own."
"The second lady will definitely be able to handle things well this time."
The second lady was so full of anger that she almost threw some words back in the old lady's face on the spot.
But if you go back and think about it quietly, the old lady is indeed right. Now the limelight outside is not good for the empress and the eldest prince. The reason is that she, the empress's mother, is too shameless.
Although this only accounted for a small part of the reason, if she wanted to calm down the matter quickly and settle the matter of establishing the crown prince before the winter solstice, she had to put on a gesture of admitting her mistake.
Anyway, the matter is already like this, the embarrassment that should be lost has been lost, and the queen promised in front of her majesty that she would come to apologize, so there is no room for improvement in the matter, which is why the second lady did not reject the old lady.
Wanting to understand the key points, the second lady simply stopped struggling and asked someone to prepare a generous gift, and took a car to Su's residence the next day.
On the way before coming here, the second lady had already thought about what to say and how to apologize.
She even thought darkly, if she puts on such a low posture, it would be better for that rough woman to show her face. In this way, she can turn the situation around, and then become Concubine Su's concubine, who will come to apologize in a low voice. But with a bad attitude.
The second lady even thought about how to get people to publicize it. She thought about it all the way and was very happy, but who knew that when she got to the Su residence, the Su family would not be there.
The servant at the door said that the old man and the old lady, as well as the old man and the great lady, went to see the Earl's Palace newly granted by His Majesty, and the second master was not there.
In other words, there is not even a single person in the Su Mansion who can meet guests.
It was a vow, but it was in vain. Don't mention the mood of the second wife. Naturally, she scolded the Su family for being ignorant. Isn't it just a newly gifted house? !
