Chapter 39 False Pregnancy

At the beginning of the new year, Yun Fenghuang had discussed with the queen to hold a banquet during the summer vacation, so as to find suitable spouses for the emperor's heirs.

Although the summer vacation has just started at this moment, after all, this is a big matter, and there are not a few people who care about it. In addition, there is nothing to do recently, and everyone has a lot of free time, so they can't help thinking about doing it first.

Concubine De brought the three imperial daughters to the door, and euphemistically expressed this meaning to Yun Fenghuang: "As the saying goes, knowing people, knowing faces but not knowing their hearts, those who come to the palace to have a banquet, as long as they are not stupid, they have to put on a show Come on? How will we know the real good or bad at that time? If we usually visit and inquire, the common saying that family ugliness should not be publicized, even if it can be heard, may not be the truth. So my sister thought, why don't you tell me in two days? Set up a table, and take advantage of the less busy summer vacation, they will come here a few times every now and then. After watching so much, I am not afraid that those who have problems will not show their feet."

Yun Fenghuang felt that she was too impatient: "There are only two elder sisters above, are you afraid that His Majesty will not care? After all, there are more princes and few princesses in the palace."

But Concubine De felt that Chunjia really didn't care, after all she was respectable and pampered in front of Chunjia, but the daughter under her knee was cowardly, not at all like Zhaoqing who was in front of the imperial concubine, who was afraid when she saw Chunjia.

When I was young, it was not uncommon to say that little girls were less timid.

Now that he has grown into a half-grown child, he still avoids his father everywhere, seeing the emperor and the mouse as if seeing a cat.

If Chunjia had only such a daughter, maybe she could still feel a little bit of affection, and even had time to find out what she was doing to be afraid of herself... It is clear that Chunjia had never been cruel to these three princesses.

But the emperor said that there were only a few princesses, but there were about a dozen of them.

Five years ago, Li Jieyu gave birth to the ten imperial daughters. In the past five years, several concubines have also given birth to children one after another...

With such a large number of heirs, and Princess Zhaoqing is notoriously jealous, she even drank the vinegar of her elder brother King Qin who grew up together, let alone other younger siblings.

In short, Chunjia felt that the third princess was afraid of her, although she was puzzled, she had no time and didn't bother to delve into it.

Anyway, the eldest daughter is beautiful, cute, clingy, and intelligent, which has fully satisfied his needs for a daughter.

If the other daughters are not willing to get close to him, then it is better not to get close.

It also saved him the effort of appeasing his jealous eldest daughter.

Therefore, the three imperial daughters have not yet had a sense of presence in front of the emperor as the mother-in-law, Concubine De.

The imperial concubine gets the reward, and the concubine De has a share every time.

If Chunjia hadn't given Yun Fenghuang something to his children, the Third Imperial Daughter would have no share.

"Princess says it's rare, but there are about a dozen of them." Concubine De sighed at this moment, and said, "Sister knows Zi'er's temperament. To put it bluntly, it's fortunate that my sister is her own mother. Otherwise, With her temperament, there are nine out of ten younger sisters who will be suspected of treating the emperor badly! Since she was a child, she has been taught and petted tightly, and my younger sister is also wondering why this child can't stand up? You said she was afraid The others are fine, after all, they are just girls. But how could they be afraid of His Majesty? His Majesty is obviously not bad to her, but he never said a word of seriousness! Like Zhaoqing, who was naughty in the past, and was even frightened by His Majesty , Aren’t you making out with His Majesty right now? This is what a real father and daughter look like. My son... Sigh!"

Apart from the imperial heirs in front of her, the imperial concubine is most familiar with the three imperial daughters, Gong Xiangzi.

Naturally, she also understood that the princess was always afraid of Chunjia, but since she was not raised by herself, she didn't care too much.

At this moment, after listening to Concubine De's complaints, he just said: "Perhaps Xu Zi'er is just such a character who doesn't like to get close to her father, isn't she very close to you? Some children only kiss their mothers but not their fathers. There is no other way. After all, it is His Majesty's own flesh and blood, and His Majesty can ignore it?"

Concubine De sighed: "It's fine when I was young, but now that I'm so old, I'm still ignorant."

What's the use of kissing your mother again as the heir of the emperor?

After all, Wei Niang is just a concubine!

You just pretend, and you also pretend to have some feelings for your own father, so that he can worry about you!

Concubine De was really envious of Yun Fenghuang in this regard, as every one of the emperor's heirs in front of her was counted as one, and none of them respected Chunjia at a distance.

Like Princess Zhaoqing, like King Jin, she has been reprimanded by Chunjia for not two or three times, she walked away wiping her tears, then turned her head and laughed with her own father... Concubine De has served Chunjia for many years at least, and she doesn't know where she is. The emperor scolded, scolded, and said, he must also feel in his heart that only such a child can really treat him as a father.

Really get close to him from the bottom of your heart?

Concubine De very much hoped that the third princess could do the same, the problem was that her daughter didn't cooperate, and she couldn't do anything about it.

At this moment, he took the imperial concubine to talk about the difficulty of raising the daughter, and thought of the son who died young, and couldn't help crying, saying: "When the knees were empty, I wish I had a child. Then When I was young, I thought that once I had a child, I would have no more troubles. Who knows, after having a child, the troubles will start. Sister, you said that Zier is so timid at the moment, not like a princess at all. Go down, It's the son-in-law who is harsh on her, my sister is really worried, she won't even come back to the palace to complain to us."

"What can I do with this child's temperament?" Yun Fenghuang sighed, "Either you can train her a few useful people and marry her as a dowry later. If she is wronged, don't tell her yourself, you can do it anyway. Someone tipped off."

"That's the only way to go." Concubine De said gloomily, "So my younger sister thought, I must find a generous and honest man for her, even if her background is a little bit less, it doesn't matter."

Her son died of smallpox, and there was only such a daughter in front of her. She really put all her heart and soul into the consideration of the third princess.

But this daughter's nature limited her performance.

No matter how unwilling she was, she had to admit that with the temperament of the Third Emperor, forcing her to find someone to win... might not be a good thing.

"There are a lot of candidates like this." Yun Fenghuang comforted, "Think about those big families, after all, the outstanding children have always been a minority. Most of them are mediocre people who have inherited court training but are limited to aptitude. There are so many people, it must not be difficult to pick someone with a honest nature. Besides, Zier's status and appearance, they can't help but treat them disrespectfully. Now it's not the time of the first emperor, when the royal family was in decline, and it was necessary to look at the faces of outsiders. Just be softer, who dares to bully her, really think that Gongxiang is easy to talk to?"

The voice lowered, "Think about the niece of the queen who was driven home before. Although His Majesty is busy with government affairs and has no time to care about each of his children, but after all, he is his own flesh and blood. How could he allow outsiders to bully him?"

In particular, when Chunjia himself had just ascended the throne, he suffered from the loss of his relatives who were in power, and what he hated most in his heart was that outsiders surpassed Gongxiang's blood.

Concubine De thought about it too, but she relaxed a lot.

She was not so worried about the future of the third princess, but asked about Zhaoqing's marriage with great interest: "Even my younger sister has been entrusted by many people, saying that I want the children in the family to show my elder sister...it's okay if you don't like it." It's just that everyone in the family who has seen Zhaoqing wants to have a chance to show it to the empress. If there is no chance, it is a real regret."

Thinking of Chunjia's refusal before, Yun Fenghuang didn't smile very much, and just said lightly: "You know, although there are still two queens and nine queens in front of me now, but among the daughters, Zhaoqing is the most favored by me. .She is also a pampered character, she must like the choice of son-in-law. We will talk about the rest at that time. After all, this child has her own ideas and is grown up, but I don't want to force her too much."

Of course, this is meant to be heard by outsiders.

The eldest daughter of the emperor who is deeply favored, and has a peerless beauty, she is only thirteen and has attracted countless powerful children... With such a good bargaining chip, how could Yun Fenghuang fulfill Princess Zhaoqing's "I like it"?

The person the daughter likes has the same interests as hers, so she is willing to go along with the flow and be a good person.

If they are not consistent, then I'm sorry, Concubine Min did not rely on luck to get to where she is today, she often has ways to tear apart the mandarin ducks!

Now that Zhaoqing hasn't fallen in love with someone she shouldn't love, the imperial concubine is a loving mother and said sternly, "I have worked so hard in this palace for so many years to gain the status and power I have today. What are you trying to do? No Is it just for the sake of the children living happily? If you can't protect them, what's the point of my efforts over the years?"

Hearing this, Concubine De was very respectful, and couldn't help but said: "Sister said a word of condemnation: back then, I saw that my sister treated Zhaoqing and the others as her own, and thought it was just for His Majesty to see, but now I know , my sister is really a knife-mouthed bean curd heart, and she is really heart-to-heart for these children!"

Yun Fenghuang didn't blush, and said frankly: "Since ancient times, Sheng En has not been as big as Nu En, even if it is not my palace's own, how is it any different from my own?"

After she finished her high-spirited talk here and sent Concubine De away, she turned her head and remembered something, called Chen Jing to her and asked, "Is there any news about Shanyuan Temple?"

"Returning to the mother, the mother and daughter of the Qian family have turned against each other at this moment." Chen Jing said, "I don't even want to live in the same place anymore, and even win over people who are watching and criticize each other... Du Langu is outside Hearing these news, one head and two elders have been running around for a long time, but Shanyuan Temple does not accept male guests, and he is not allowed to enter at all, and can only convey the news through servants, so the effect of persuasion is extremely weak. Du Lan Gu also quietly went to deliver something yesterday..."

Yun Fenghuang was not in a good mood, and said: "The Qian family's mother and daughter are more than successful than they are. They were asked to go to the Taoist temple to inquire about the news, but in the end they were too busy to kill themselves? Did the palace ask them to act in a farce! What an idiot!"

Just as Chen Jing was about to say something, she heard the imperial concubine ask again, "By the way, how are the maidservants surnamed Du that His Majesty rewarded you?"

"Then Du Langu arranged people in a remote courtyard, but he didn't pay much attention to it." Chen Jing said softly, "He was probably also afraid that the back house would catch fire."

The master and servant had analyzed Du Langu earlier in the morning, and he was not very interested in wealth, sex, and alcohol, but he was only interested in being a capable minister who will be famous for future generations.

It's not that he didn't understand Yun Fenghuang's sinister intentions in sending his wife and daughter away, but urged the emperor to reward the beautiful palace servants, so it's reasonable not to touch them.

"That can't be up to him." It's just that Yun Fenghuang is not a good person. Hearing this, he sneered and said, "Talk to Qian's mother and daughter, and say that two of the maids are pregnant. If they don't Be honest and do what I ask... maybe those two maidservants gave birth to male heirs, no matter how affectionate and loyal Du Langu is, will he still be able to kill his own flesh and blood?! At that time, Queen Du How the house will be, let them think for themselves!"

"The palace servants are all pregnant for a month now. If they don't hurry up, when the child falls to the ground, I will be willing to give them convenience. Du Langu may feel distressed!"

Although the real secret doesn't expect Qian's mother and daughter to have the ability to see the details, but the mother and daughter are arguing in a hurry, her real confidant, it's more convenient to do things, isn't it?
