Chapter 683 Brother and Sister Love and Hate Each Other

Once this sentence came out, the others could not help but fall silent.

Although the mistress of the house does need to be dignified, and most of the treatment of concubines and concubines will be somewhat harsh, and it is impossible to compare the treatment with the legitimate sons and daughters, but in the absence of grudges, simply not wanting the concubines to live well - this is no longer a question of whether there is dignity or not, but a narrow-mindedness and intolerance.

Especially under the premise that His Majesty has already intended to grant the marriage, Tao Shi still does not give up, which makes people feel incomprehensible.

"The key to the matter should be the Ye family." Princess Jing thought, "The Ruan family is also a noble family, and the family's prominence is more glorious than the Ye family, but without real power, it is inevitable that there will be some embarrassment in the marriage of their children."

The noble family without real power will decline sooner or later. While there is still a title, it can still have a slight advantage in the marriage of their children, but this advantage is not obvious after all.

Tao wanted her daughter to marry a prominent family, but her family was not qualified, so she had to lower her sights. The Ye family was in charge of the Ministry of Households, and it was indeed the best choice for the Ruan family at present.

However, the Ye family openly proposed the request that sisters share one husband at this time, which was a bit too much.

The status of the several princesses and wives in the warm pavilion were all noble, not to mention the eldest princess, the Princess of Jing and the Princess of Huai. In comparison, Mrs. Chu was not much inferior.

As for coming to the Ruan family to participate in this flower viewing party today, it was originally out of boredom. At this time, they gathered together in their spare time and talked about the behavior of Mrs. Ruan of the Ruan family. They also discussed it casually, without much interest.

After all, these had nothing to do with them. After all, Qingling was just a female doctor. Even if she came from the eldest princess's mansion, she was still a female doctor. Now that His Majesty has decided to grant the marriage, there is no need for others to discuss and pay too much attention.

Anyway, it was useless for Ruan to not give up. How could His Majesty decide whether she was willing or not?

Madam Chu said, "If His Majesty really intends to grant a marriage, I have to prepare a courtyard for them to get married early and decorate it well. It can't be too shabby."

"How can the Chu family have a shabby courtyard?" Princess Huai joked, "But Madam is really devoted to Nan Yi, the illegitimate son, and I admire her very much."

Mrs. Chu was modest: "I'm too lazy to care too much. It's good that the children grow up normally. They haven't grown up crooked. My master and I are very relieved."

"What is Xuan Yi doing recently?" Princess Huai frowned, "It seems that I haven't heard from him for a long time."

"He is taking classes in the Imperial College." Madam Chu sighed, quite melancholy, "His Majesty and the Regent are both going to ignore him for a while. The master simply let him stay in the Imperial College for the next three or two years to improve his knowledge and talk about it later."

Ignore him for a while?

Princess Jing was puzzled: "Why? Did Xuan Yi do something to displease His Majesty?"

"That's not the case." Madam Chu shook her head, "It's also because of Hong Yi. Although Hong Yi married Prince Qi because they were in love, Hong Yi holds military power, and Prince Jing's mansion is a legitimate royal family. The combination of the two makes people feel a little uneasy."

Princess Jing fell silent.

Madam Chu's words really touched her heart. Although many things should not be said so directly, otherwise it would be suspected of speculating on the emperor's intentions, but the fact is indeed so.

A prominent family is sometimes really a double-edged sword.

"Your Majesty is wise, and the Regent is also a rare enlightened prince since ancient times. Since they trust the Jingwang Mansion and the Chu family, and even go so far as to grant the marriage, they certainly have no other intentions. But as ministers, we must not know how to restrain our edge." Mrs. Chu said, "Plus, Hongyi has been favored by the emperor in the past two years, so Xuanyi can only be ignored for the time being."

Princess Jing nodded slowly and drank a sip of tea quietly, thinking that her son had the same intention at the beginning. Hongyi was in charge of the military power and served by His Majesty. In addition, the Jingwang Mansion was already prominent, and after marrying the Chu family, it was in the limelight for a while and was favored by thousands.

So Xuanyuan Qi chose to stay at home and avoid the edge for the time being, but he didn't expect that he would still be appointed by His Majesty as the Prince's tutor.

The Chu family has Chu Hongyi, a daughter who has become the daughter-in-law of the royal family, and Chu Nanyi, a bastard who listens to the Regent's orders. It is indeed a bit too sharp.

It is not quite reasonable to let the eldest son be ignored for the time being.

"But it's good this way. Xuanyi is a little unstable. Let him settle down in the Imperial College for two years. It won't be too late to serve your majesty then." Mrs. Chu smiled, "Now I hope he can get married soon and give me a grandson. Seeing the princess holding her grandson, I'm so envious."

"Your majesty and the regent are temporarily cold to Xuanyi, not because the Chu family is too powerful." The princess smiled gently, "but Xuanyi sold Hongyi in front of the regent, and Hongyi took revenge directly after getting married... The brother and sister love and hate each other and fight in the nest. Your majesty favors Hongyi, so the regent naturally obeys your majesty's orders and lets Xuanyi stay alone."

Love and hate each other?

Madam Chu and Princess Jing were both stunned: "What do you mean?"

"It's harmless to joke between siblings." The eldest princess laughed, "But your majesty and the regent know how to employ people. It's impossible to say that they are not partial to each other. Parents can't treat their own children equally, let alone the monarch and his subjects?"

"Your Highness is right." Mrs. Chu nodded, "That's what my master planned. Because Hongyi holds the military power, it is considered a special honor. Xuanyi stayed in the Imperial College for two years, and two years later he passed the imperial examination and became an official. The steps are smaller, and we feel more at ease.”

Yes, who is a parent who doesn’t want his son to honor his ancestors?

It was a fact that Chu Hongyi was favored, but all her future glory and power had already belonged to Prince Jing's Mansion. After all, the Chu family's mansion still needed Chu Xuanyi, the eldest son, to support it.

Just hearing what the eldest princess said, Mrs. Chu breathed a subtle sigh of relief. Of course she didn't dare to speculate on the holy will, but seeing that the legitimate son of the Xie family had a smooth career and became a celebrity in the imperial court, and the prince of Huainan took over the military power, Prince Qi became the Tutor, the concubine of Prince Jing's Palace and the Prince of Wei's Palace were both given important positions. Even Nan Yi often went to the palace and served as a servant to the emperor, but Chu Xuanyi still had nothing to say. How could she not have some thoughts in her heart?

It's not that he's jealous, he's just worried that Xuan Yi might have displeased His Majesty, or that he offended the Regent without knowing it and was left out in the cold. I want to know if Xuan Yi will have a chance to be reused in the future?

After all, the Chu family will have to rely on Xuanyi's inheritance in the future. As a woman, she really can't be indifferent to fame and fortune.

At this time, she really felt relieved when she heard from the eldest princess that it was a joke between the brother and sister. She believed in her daughter, and she believed that Hong Yi was doing it for the sake of the Chu family, so there should be no harm in Xuan Yi's temporary silence. .
