Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 81 Mother and Daughter Goodbye

Yun Fenghuang was actually thinking about this issue last night, although Concubine Shu and Chunjia's attitude was that if the concubine did not agree to this matter, then forget it.

But in fact, they all hoped that Yun Fenghuang would agree.

From Yun Fenghuang's standpoint, the Yun family was originally Jane's high-ranking family in the heart of the emperor. If they were married to such a time-honored and famous family as the Ouyang family, it would be quite difficult to deal with, not to mention standing still in the future.

She can refuse now, but after she refuses, Chunjia may be able to fool her around, but there will definitely be a gap between her and Ouyang's family...

The most important thing is that with Yi Guogong's lintel and Yun Qike's personality, even if he fails to make it with Ouyang's family, the next son-in-law must be from a famous family.

Yun Fenghuang thought for a moment, didn't answer Concubine Shu's words, but talked about Chunjia's plan to reward Yun'an's heir: "But we have to prepare something, after all, His Majesty said such a thing, and the time will not be limited to the eldest princess." His Majesty's child is male or female, so he must not be stingy with titles, ordinary congratulations, but he can't afford it. Of course, His Majesty means that he is afraid that accepting such an order as soon as the child is born will make the eldest princess overworked, so he plans to wait until the child is full We'll discuss it in a week. So don't say it out, lest it will be in vain."

At the end, he said that he was tired and served tea to see off the guests.

Concubine Shu was at a loss when she returned to her own palace, she summoned her left and right and asked, "What do you mean by this concubine? Are you agreeing or not?"

Her valet was also not sure, so she passed the story back to her family and asked the elders in the family to make a decision.

In the end, it was her elder brother who had an epiphany and said, "Could it be that the imperial concubine wants us to help, and ask for a reward for the heir of Princess Sui'an?"

"Her Royal Highness Princess Yun'an and Princess Sui'an are both blood and blood of the late emperor, and they are also concubine daughters. They are treated equally." Ouyang Fulu's father pondered, "Her Royal Highness Princess Yun'an has the grace, and Sui'an Chang How could Her Royal Highness not have it? It can’t be this. It’s just that there is no news about Her Royal Highness Chang Princess Sui’an so far, maybe the imperial concubine means that this reward should fall directly on the head of Her Royal Highness Chang Princess Sui’an’s son-in-law?”

The Ouyang family looked at each other in blank dismay, this matter is more difficult to handle.

Because apart from the founding of the country, no titles would be granted easily.

Back then when Chunjia conferred Gong Xiangxiao, not only was it to target the regent, but it was mainly because Gong Xiangxiao was a child of the Gongxiang family.

And the canonization of Yun'an's heir was nothing more than to show the world that he did not treat Xiaozong's flesh and blood badly.

Although conferring a son-in-law is also a respect for the eldest princess, but it is a level behind, isn't it?

The most important thing is that Xiaozong has three daughters. If Xie Wuzheng was canonized because Sui'an had nothing to do, what about Zheng Fenglin and Yunxike? He is also a son-in-law, Yunxi guest is still the son-in-law of his daughter, so shouldn't he also be canonized?

Even with Ouyang Yanran's ability, this matter may not be able to be done.

"What about Duke Yi?" Someone asked, "Duke Yi is very respectable in front of His Majesty. Maybe Duke Yi will tell you that His Majesty will agree?"

"Not necessarily." Ouyang Fulu's father sighed, "If you think about it, if this matter is so easy to handle, with the imperial concubine's favor, why don't you say it yourself? Why let us foreign ministers get involved?"

Hearing that Ouyang's family sighed slightly: "Then, this marriage can only be forgotten?"

"That's not necessarily the case." Ouyang Fulu's father said calmly, "As the saying goes, pay the money on the spot at a high price, and the concubine didn't say anything to death, why should we follow this? Why don't we try to pay the price again. Father is not around now Dijing is still doing disaster relief in the south, so even if we mess up the matter, wait for our father to come back and punish us, and then make amends with the empresses in the palace, that’s all. The Xie family can’t wait to start fighting among themselves before they have achieved climate. Without our family's support, she won't turn her face for such a small time."

So they did this, and asked Concubine Shu to tell Yun Fenghuang that it is impossible for Xie Wuzheng to become a knight, but they can help Xie Wuzheng, or other Xie's children designated by the imperial concubine, win a The real shortage in the place.

Moreover, Ouyang's family can have another daughter-in-law to marry Xie.

Yun Fenghuang was quite satisfied with this counter-offer, and she actually knew that asking Chunjia to confer titles on the heirs of Sui'an and Xie Wuzheng was two different things from directly conferring titles on Xie Wuzheng.

Basically, Chunjia would not agree to be conferred directly, otherwise why wait until today?

The reason why this question was given to the Ouyang family is mainly to test the ability of the Ouyang family and the Yun family to join forces.

If they can even handle this matter, then I'm sorry, the imperial concubine has no sense of security at all, even if she agrees on the surface, she must kill one of them in private, so that she can rest assured.

But since they can't do it, and it's the kind of categorical failure, the imperial concubine thinks, it seems that they can also make a profit?

...The main reason is that Jiang sent a post to enter the palace.

The mother and daughter talked about their farewell in a few words, and they both felt that the children of the old Xie family were not very reliable: "Just like the empress is in the palace now, the reason why even the queen empress can't do anything about it is because of the emperor's favor. Empress has Concubine Shu and Concubine De and others as her confidantes, but if there is any matter, everyone will respond to it, even if the empress is the main palace, how can she dare to make people angry again and again? Empress is the daughter of the fourth house, I am not helping your brothers to get sideways But the fact is that if the four-room brothers are not decent enough, the people in the other rooms will easily develop ambitions, feel that the empress has to rely on them, so arrogant, in front of the empress, they may still be willing to restrain themselves."

"Turn around, I feel that this is a place my mother doesn't know, and I don't know what I will do!"

"If things go on like this, won't you cause a catastrophe and drag your empress down?"

"In my opinion, the Empress should focus on favoring her brothers and cousins, asking them to take the initiative to come forward, for fear that the empress will not support her... In this way, they dare not forget what the empress said. Even if you want to fight among yourself, you have to weigh it, once the empress finds out, will they still have a chance to get rich?"

"Like Empress before, whoever has the ability can support whoever is. It doesn't matter if they are of the same mother or if they are in other rooms. If everyone is sensible, of course it is the best and fastest way to improve the family's reputation."

"But it turns out that the people in our family are not of the same mind!"

"Then we can only change the method and let them know who is the one who decides."

"It's not that I feel that the empress can't do without them and has to be coerced by them!"

These words can be said to have reached Yun Fenghuang's heart, she is not the kind of filial girl who will devote herself to her mother's family, if her mother's family is of no use, she will not bother to bother!

As for the brother from her natal family who wanted to take Joe... She wished she could tear this kind of brother up with her own hands!

Without the praise of Concubine Min, what are these brothers?

Now that you're not so full-fledged, you want to play with her as a pamper? ? ?

It's like toasting but not eating and eating fine wine!

Hearing the words, he sighed: "If my compatriots are fighting for their strengths, why would I be willing to take advantage of other rooms? But Mother also knows, Brother Thirteen... I have actually favored him in all kinds of things in the past two years, but he... Sigh , last time he missed the scene that His Majesty personally inspected, the ins and outs, did Thirteenth Wife tell you?"

"She has already said it." Jiang's complexion darkened, "If this bastard is not my own, I wish I could kill him directly! When I came to the Imperial Capital, I told you ten thousand times, and even sent you thirteen The sister-in-law dragged her daughter over to accompany him, why? Didn't she just know his nature and was afraid of being led away, so she asked his wife and children to come over and watch over him?! In the end...he didn't live up to it, so he just paid it off. It's right that he didn't have a bright future! But he almost made you lose face, really..."

Yun Fenghuang didn't persuade her to calm down, and even fanned the flames: "Later, the thirteenth sister-in-law came to the palace and cried, saying that it was because the son-in-law hid the secrets that made the thirteenth brother lose the election. Your Majesty knows about it! Mother, just think about my embarrassment at that time! I have never been so humiliated since I was a child!"

Jiang Shi was startled, and sullenly said: "Your Thirteenth Sister-in-law is such an idiot?! It's strange that you will send Meng'er back! This family seems to be a fool, I don't think it is necessary for Dijing to let them stay. Let them go back to their hometown and go to farm and study! No need to be mad, we mother and daughter!"

"Mother, you gave me so many brothers." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "Brother Thirteen and Brother Eighteen are smart and capable, but the other two brothers are kind and honest, but they are too honest. "

This is being said euphemistically, but in fact Jiang's and Xie Jian's four sons, Xie Xiliu and Xie Xiaoyu are considered outstanding.

Xie Xiye, who is ranked tenth, and Xie Xishi, who is ranked fifteenth, are really honest: If you can't study well, you can't manage things, and you are born destined to only guard your family business.

So the Jiang family didn't send these two sons to the imperial capital at all, because they would not be of much use if they came, and they might be set up by others and they would hinder them.

Furthermore, it is impossible for her to bring all her children to the Imperial Capital. In that case, the rest of the Xie family will inevitably suspect that their house is planning to set up a separate family and leave the family alone.

"...Why don't you look at your cousins?" Thinking of this, Jiang Shi also had a headache. Among her grandchildren, there are a few grandchildren who seem to be smart and clever, and now they are specially hired teachers to train them, but , or the same sentence: age is flawed.

They haven't reached the point where they can stand on their own, so they won't be useful at all.

Otherwise, she wouldn't openly criticize and thank Xiliu and his wife with her daughter, but in fact she secretly had the intention of protecting her.

This is not to favor the unworthy son, but that there are really no credible people for the daughter to use.

No matter how bad Xie Xiliu is, he is the brother of Yun Fenghuang's mother. The son he raised himself knows that Xie Xiliu may be lacking in ability and has some small thoughts, but when it comes to right and wrong, he must still be towards his sister .

This is much more reliable than in other rooms.

"I just told my cousin that Princess Kunze is his wife." Yun Fenghuang frowned and said, "Jiang's children did not perform very well in the scientific examination before, and your Majesty is not very short of manpower now, but they are not very good. Uplift."

After learning about her daughter's actions these days, the Jiang family pondered: "Actually, since you have an agreement with Ouyang Yanran, it is unlikely that members of our family will be promoted to replace Ouyang Yanran's status in a short time. Why don't you teach your brothers to go out and experience it first, so that if you have a foundation, you won't be tied up when you return to court in the future. What do you think?"

Yun Fenghuang said: "I don't know the principle of being steady and steady? It's just that people's hearts are changeable. When I entered the palace, who didn't know His Majesty's love for Concubine An? But later..."

"You're not Concubine An." Jiang interrupted her unhappily, "Why do you keep mentioning that stupid thing? You are my daughter, and I don't know what you are doing? As long as you don't mess yourself up, I don't believe His Majesty will say I hate you, I hate you."

Yun Fenghuang was a little dumb for a while, and said: "Mother, you really think too highly of me, Your Majesty's thoughts are deeper than you think."

"Shouldn't the Sacred Heart be unpredictable?" Jiang asked calmly, "If not, with His Majesty's experience, can you still make so many sidetracks at this moment? You said that you have been in the palace for a few years. This year It’s not yet Double Ten, youth is in full swing, what are you afraid of? What’s the rush?”

Seeing that Yun Fenghuang was speechless, he sighed and slowed down his tone, "Even if he is twenty-one, with the blessing of being a son-in-law, it is unlikely that he will become a marquis and a minister in a few years. Your Majesty is not confused. An important minister in the court is not a fuel-efficient lamp! Push him up rashly, his virtue is not worthy, and he can poke out the basket that you can't clean up without the objection of the ministers, and in turn implicate you and the entire Xie family! So listen to your mother Yes, don't worry, take your time, they are still so young, why bother to fight back and forth in the imperial capital? Why don't you tell His Majesty to let everyone out, so that if you gather less and leave more, the relationship between brothers will be more likely to be deep "Furthermore, on the ground, it can be sharpened or screened."

"At that time, if you have any plans, will they come in handy?"

Yun Fenghuang said: "Sharpening, it's easy to say, how can it be so easy? There were important ministers in the previous court, but they were released for twenty years before returning to the court."

"That's because he doesn't have a backer in the Imperial Capital." Jiang said, "Your brother is not."

"Even so, it will take at least ten years." Yun Fenghuang frowned, "After ten years, I will be old too."

"But the emperor's heir under your knees will also grow up." Jiang said in a low voice, "by then, the uncle's family will also have full wings. Do you still need to continue to live on the emperor's favor? Look at Mrs. Yi Guogong, she After getting such a bastard for my son to be my daughter-in-law, why don’t you still be her Duke’s wife? Why? Isn’t it because the son is her own, and the Yun family is angry from top to bottom, and they always want to show respect to the son?”

These words reached Yun Fenghuang's worry: "But mother, you also know that it's fine if Zhaoqing is a girl, King Qin and the Seventh Prince are not my own."

"Qi Jiulu is Chen's own." Jiang said disapprovingly, "If you don't know how to raise your own, do you think your own will not be cheated away? If you know how to raise it, so what if it's not your own? Your sister is not me My dear, although she is a bit confused, has she ever had a different heart towards you and me?"

Yun Fenghuang was a little speechless.

After thinking for a moment, he said: "The Ouyang family wants to marry the Yun family now, and they have promised me some benefits. Since that's the case, I'll let them handle the matter of letting go."

Jiang Shi struck while the iron was hot: "There is also the matter of Meng'er Kuo'er being raised by your side."

Yun Fenghuang frowned.
