Chapter 180 The Crown Princess with Internal and External Troubles
This time the Sai people were different from the palace maids arranged for Du Langu in order to coerce Qian's mother and daughter.
After all, Du Langu was a foreign minister, and Yun Fenghuang still had to use Chunjia as a swindler, so getting four of them was already the limit.
If there is more, it will be difficult to clean up.
But the crown prince is now recorded under Yunfenghuang's name on the jade plate, and in terms of etiquette, he is also Yunfenghuang's legitimate junior.
As the lord of the sixth house, adding someone to the prince is not only reasonable, but also a proof of showing his virtue and gentleness, and caring for the prince.
So Yun Fenghuang was not polite at all, and picked more than 20 young and beautiful palace maids to the East Palace in one go!
Wei Xiyan, who was "recovering from illness", heard it: "...?!!!!!!!"
In addition to more than twenty palace maids, two palace maids were arranged to serve each of them. In this way, the huge courtyard was crowded with the master and the servants.
When Wei Xiyan went out to look, her eyes were filled with darkness, and her heart was also filled with darkness. When she knew what was going on, she wished she could faint immediately!
"The new empress is trying to drive me to death!" She was dizzy for a while, and it took a while to recover after being helped inside, tears streaming down her cheeks, "But what should I do?"
Seeing this, the servants were all sympathetic, and persuaded: "Your Majesty, don't do this. The Empress is just using the topic to make use of it to add some servants to His Highness. How can it be compared to your Majesty? Your Majesty is lacking now, so why not slow down first?" Huo Tuzhi, tell His Highness later, how smart His Highness is, how could he be obsessed with it?"
"Your Highness is naturally a sensible person. Even if I don't have something to say, I will definitely not be confused by it." Wei Xiyan choked up and said with red eyes, "But if the queen can do the first day of the junior high school, she can continue to be the fifteenth! It's only been a few days with the prince? It's not the time to share joys and sorrows and have a deep relationship. Those two side concubines who were born in the Xie family are no longer cheap. Now the queen has arranged many maidservants to be concubines Concubine. No matter how guarded Your Highness is, he is so young and beautiful, and if he ignores her for a day or two, after a long time, those people are not stupid, so why don't they think of something?"
"Maybe when His Highness will be soft-hearted, or in order to make the queen feel more comfortable, he will take the initiative to visit them?"
"So what should I do in the future?"
"Even if the emperor bestows a marriage, the emperor only teaches me to be the wife of the prince, but he doesn't care whether I live a comfortable life. From now on, the empress will keep staring at me like this. I'm afraid I can only go on the old road of the first and the next. His life, but he has no right to the status of the royal family!"
Gu Zhen in the front, even if he is not favored by the emperor, is at least the master who entered the palace when the emperor got married and lived in the palace for many years.
In the past few years when Gu Zhen was queen, it seemed that the empress had no majesty, but in fact, except for Yun Fenghuang, the other concubines did not dare to provoke the middle palace.
Chunjia just prefers Yunfenghuang, as for the other concubines, no matter whether he likes it or not, he always hints that they are obediently listening to the queen's arrangements.
This is one of Gu Zhen's rewards for accompanying him for many years.
However, Wei Xiyan and the crown prince have only been married for a few days, so how can there be such a foundation?
She doesn't even have a child yet!
At this moment, there are two side concubines and a bunch of concubines who are favored by concubines. When will she be able to have children like a normal wife and think she is close to her?
It's about vital interests, so Wei Xiyan couldn't help but be alarmed.
Therefore, she couldn't listen to the persuasion from left and right, and cried for a while, waiting for the prince to come back to discuss countermeasures.
These days, the prince was led by the emperor to handle various government affairs. It was very hard work for him to go out early and return home late, but he was also very happy, and he didn't have much thought about the back house.
When he came back that night, he was invited to the princess, and he was quite surprised to see Wei Xiyan's haggard appearance. After hearing the story, she frowned slightly, but was not angry but happy. After waving back to the left and right, she said to the princess: "The queen mother is not the orphan's biological mother, nor is she the adoptive mother. She has always been alienated. For the orphan to become the prince, the mother queen is ten There are thousands of people who are dissatisfied. Therefore, you and I must work together. After this period, everything will be easy to talk about in the future. If not, what do you want Gu to do? Do you openly disobey the mother's order for you? If so, just I'm afraid that in the future, the father will find out, and he will take action to protect the mother, and when the time comes, it will be you who will suffer."
Wei Xiyan knew the truth. The crown prince, the heir apparent recognized by the emperor, had a blatant conflict with the empress, and the emperor would still be entangled. If her daughter-in-law got into a fight with the empress, the emperor would probably give the crown prince a quick fight. Change your wife.
But my heart is still uncomfortable: "I don't worry about anything else, but seeing my mother rewarding so many concubines in one go, do you have the thought of ruining your highness?"
"Don't worry about it." Seeing her caring about her love, the prince secretly heaved a sigh of relief, and comforted him, "I know what I know, these people, at most, will be perfunctory, and they will never trust, let alone hang around for many years."
In fact, Wei Xiyan is most concerned about the issue of her children, but this kind of matter cannot be rushed, and besides, she has only been in the house for a short time, so she is embarrassed to speak out about it.
So he made a side note, and got the prince's promise that he would try his best to protect her, so he let it go with a sigh, and prayed in a low voice: "If the queen mother stops here, it will be fine if there is no more trouble in the future."
This is of course impossible.
After Yun Fenghuang added people, he observed for two days, and saw that the crown prince coaxed the crown princess, but seldom went to the concubine Ji, so he took advantage of this day when a married woman entered the palace to pay her respects, and scolded Wei Xiyan's mother, saying that she A good daughter who has been taught is a good daughter who controls her husband as soon as she is newly married, and does not allow the crown prince to get close to the concubine Ji: "If she strives for herself, I won't bother to be that villain! But she has been married for a few months. Is there any news? There is no movement at all." No, what do you mean by completely ignoring the feelings of this palace and His Majesty wanting to hold a grandson? The dignified princess is so jealous, it would embarrass the royal family if she said it!"
In this regard, the new empress is confident, "Thinking back when I first entered the palace, although I came from a humble background, I also knew that jealousy is a woman's evil thought and should not be tolerated! At that time, I knew that my blessings were shallow and I could not continue the blood for Your Majesty." Therefore, I have successively recommended to His Majesty..."
Yun Fenghuang was indeed very generous in recommending many domestic favorites to the emperor.
Even several imperial heirs were born under her support.
Now she is acting like a mother-in-law, scolding the crown princess without any guilt, and finally told Wei Xiyan's mother who was full of shame: "This palace will give you mother and daughter a face, and this is the end of today, you go to the East Palace, Please try to persuade your daughter! Otherwise, when Ben Gong speaks to her personally, everyone will look bad!"
Wei Xiyan's mother, to be precise, is the aunt's mother, her family background is not considered noble, but because of Wei Xiyan, these days, she often associates with top ladies, so she is a bit smug, who knows that she will be beaten by the empress in public?
She wanted to explain a few words to the concubine, but she was frightened by the fierce look in the queen's eyes, thinking of those concubines who were folded in Yun Fenghuang's hands back then, she felt shocked, she didn't dare: After all, Wei Xiyan is not her after all. If the biological daughter, because of a few words on the scene, called the new queen to kill her in a fit of anger, with the new queen's imperial favor, I'm afraid nothing might happen.
But she, who knows what will happen?
She also has a biological heir, but she doesn't want to spend the rest of her life with a daughter born by concubine Ji.
So he held his breath, endured it, and said in a low voice: "The empress's lesson is... the concubine will be able to persuade the crown princess when she turns around. I also ask the empress to have a lot, don't bother with the crown princess...Give this child another chance !"
"They are all daughter-in-laws, so how can they be considered children?" Yun Fenghuang boasted with double standards, as if he forgot that when he spoke to Yun Xuxu's mother just now, he said, "Xuxu is always well-behaved and sensible. Heart of the Palace", snorted and said, "With your mentality, it's no wonder the Crown Princess is so ignorant!"
Wei Xiyan's mother left Yanfu Palace in disgrace, and went to the East Palace. When she saw the Crown Princess, she burst into tears before she could say anything: "My son! What crime did I do? There has never been a day as embarrassing as today!"
What else can the princess say? It is necessary to comfort the aunt and speak slowly after she is seated.
After listening to the ins and outs, she was immediately turned upside down by anger: She wanted to go to her natal family to complain, but in the end, she had to comfort her natal family instead!
It's just...
And the nightmare is far from over.
Yun Fenghuang personally reprimanding Wei Xiyan's mother is just the beginning, and then, from the East Palace to the big Wei, Yun Fenghuang will find trouble vigorously.
If it was really her own fault, Wei Xiyan would feel better, but the new empress made it clear that she relied on the emperor's favor to pick a bone, who could bear it?
Webster's family background was not very high. The reason why the emperor chose Wei Xiyan as his wife for Gong Xiangbing was because he felt that the possibility of Wei Xiyan's future power was not high. In addition, Wei Xiyan was known as one of the three talented women. There is moisture, but it should be regarded as knowledgeable.
Chunjia's own Yuan Empress was forced to marry, and Gu Zhen's successor was also chosen for the purpose of the previous dynasty, so he didn't feel that the talent of the main palace itself was so important.
In his opinion, the future queen should be able to stand out if she can. If she can't, as long as she is an ordinary lady, that's fine.
The most important thing is the situation of the descendants.
The Webster selected according to this standard is indeed very unlikely to threaten the Gongxiang family, but because of this, like the Xie family back then, he does not have the background to quickly be promoted to a top famous family.
Wei Shi was soon panicked. It's not like they didn't know that the new queen was looking for trouble on purpose, but they didn't dare to do anything about the new queen, so they went towards Wei Xiyan's family full of anger: "The crown princess is also the same. The future mother of the country, why doesn't she even know how to serve her mother-in-law? It's good now, she is not virtuous, and she has caused us to embarrass her, and she will be punished by the queen!"
These were said in front of Wei Xiyan's parents, and the female family members were sent to the East Palace to greet the prince who was paying respects to Wei Xiyan, crying and complaining about the family's plight, and finally begging Wei Xiyan: "You should serve the empress well! No matter what she does, she will still be Your Majesty." The main palace that you personally canonized is the prince's aunt, your serious mother-in-law! Even if you marry into another family, isn't it natural for a daughter-in-law to serve her mother-in-law? You have only been out of the cabinet for a few days, and you can't come out because of illness. On the contrary, Princess Qin and Princess Song are paying their respects at the Chongchang Hall, but you are the only one missing, what do you think, Empress Dowager?"
Wei Xiyan was in trouble at home and abroad, and the prince was busy with government affairs, so he could only give a few words of comfort occasionally. One can imagine the pain in his heart!
Within a few days, he really fell ill.
Of course, the two side concubines would not stand idly by her illness.
Xie Mengmeng was young, but under the guidance of his mother, Princess Sui'an, Xie Qingniao quickly took away a considerable part of the rear house with the reason that "the concubine needs to concentrate on taking care of her"!
"Once you have this power, don't give it back." Princess Sui'an taught her daughter privately, "As a mother and an emperor, life has always been pretty easy, but I haven't thought much about these intrigues... It is said that you should learn from your aunt in the future. Empress Yun's character, apart from other things, at least this harem struggle, is definitely worthy of the appreciation of concubines throughout the ages."
"At the beginning, she was lucky enough to get the palace power, but she never let it go."
"Now it's more justifiable to preside over the Sixth Palace, the mother of the world!"
"If you can obtain her true biography, you will no longer be your match for mere crown princess in the future!"
Xie Qingniao is not familiar with the new queen, but hearing her mother's words, she can't help feeling overwhelmed.
So Jiantian went to greet the concubine Zheng, pretending to be virtuous and considerate, but in fact she always reported hurtful things to Wei Xiyan, wishing that the mistress would be so angry that she died on the spot.
In the end, she was very kind to Xie Mengmeng and the other concubines, tried hard to build a good impression, and asked Suian to set up a side concubine for herself everywhere, and she was in the limelight for a while. Those who didn't know thought that the crown princess would not live long. Xie Qingniao is the next crown princess appointed by the royal family.
Yun Fenghuang watched coldly, neither obstructing nor supporting, but today he specially invited Chunjia to discuss the candidate for Princess Chu.
