Chapter 108: Creating Something Out of Nothing
Yun Fenghuang spread his hands indifferently, and said calmly: "The relationship between the left and right children of this palace is shallow, and I am satisfied to have the eldest prince and Zhaoqing to take care of my knees. As for the others, I dare not force it. Your Majesty favors Yin Zhaoyi, and favors you all." Regardless of the two, favoring any concubine in this palace is the same for this palace."
So, your sisters broke up, and Bengong is happy to watch the fun.
Concubine Xuan pursed her lips, remained silent for a while, and said slowly: "Your Majesty is right, it's because the concubine is not up to date, and has not been able to give His Majesty an heir so far. If Sister Yin can win the first place, it will be a good thing after all. After all, among the current heirs, except for the fourth prince who was just born, the biological mother is too humble."
Do you think you can sit on the Diaoyutai? Don't forget that the biological mothers of your two children are not on the stage!
Ji Muzi, the biological mother of the second prince and the third prince, was despised by the emperor, and Shun Jieyu, the biological mother of the fourth prince, was not favored by the emperor, so the eldest son of the emperor is still considered precious. Once Yin Yan, who is young and beautiful but also born in a noble family, gives birth to a prince, how much advantage can he really think that the eldest son of the eldest prince can take advantage of?
"That's exactly the reason." But Yun Fenghuang was not moved at all, and persuaded her with a virtuous and virtuous face, "It's great that you can think about it. Back then, the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager, the loving mother, saluted each other one after another. The purpose of hiring us people into the palace is to continue the heirs of His Majesty. As a result, after more than a year, except for Shun Jieyu who gave birth to a prince and Zhao Rong who is still pregnant, no one has any good news! On the contrary, the selection came up The palace concubines won the first place one after another... Whenever I think of it, I feel guilty in my heart, and I am sorry for the love and expectations of the two elders of the clan."
"Now that Zhaoyi is actively striving to be the first, how can we suppress it? We should encourage her."
Do you want to encourage Yin Xuan to spread branches and leaves for the emperor as soon as possible, or encourage us concubines with similar backgrounds to fight among themselves? !
Concubine Xuan gritted her teeth secretly, glanced at Gong Xiangxiao who was drinking with her head bowed not far away, forced a smile: "Young lady said so."
Then he turned his head to discuss with Rui Fei in a low voice.
"It seems that the empress is not living very peacefully in the palace." Yun Fenghuang ignored them and sipped rose dew on his own. It became a bit noisy, and suddenly a male voice came from not far away, with distinct teasing, "Recently, what people like to talk about outside are all the actions of the two empresses, Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui, but Empress Xianfei, I haven't heard of you for a long time. The movement is gone."
Yun Fenghuang didn't turn his head, but slowly put down the crystal cup, and chuckled softly: "Since that's the case, why do you need to talk to me? Why don't you go and flatter Concubine Xuan Rui?"
Gong Xiangxiao said not without malice: "Those two are real noble ladies, even if the emperor is not present, how can they talk irresponsibly with this son? Only the empress is willing to deal with people like this son."
"This is something that can't be helped." Yun Fenghuang was not angry, and said slowly, "Your Majesty invited me to join in the fun, but His Majesty left halfway and hasn't returned yet. Although I don't know what happened to him, But in the end, the prince was left out in the cold. Now that the empress is not here, all the concubines are headed by me, and I don’t care about the prince, so who will greet the prince? I can only feel aggrieved."
Gong Xiangxiao knew that he couldn't quarrel with her, so his complexion sank, and he said with a smile: "Your Majesty really has a deep affection for the emperor, and she never forgets to be considerate to Your Majesty. If I hadn't met your Majesty earlier, I really thought that Your Majesty has always been like this since she came here. The virtuous and the virtuous are from one to the end.”
Yun Fenghuang played with the cup in his hand, and said with a light smile: "Oranges born in Huainan are oranges, and those born in Huaibei are oranges. It is true that I am not a real lady of a famous family, but after meeting Your Majesty, of course she is also virtuous and virtuous. From the beginning to the end."
Gong Xiangxiao hated her attitude of treating Qi Jiulu as nothing, even though she knew that Concubine Xian was very suspicious, and she said that at this moment, most likely because she was afraid that people would catch her, but she still couldn't help but disdain and said: "Your Majesty is really a human being." Junjie."
Those who know current affairs are Junjie.
"Just now I heard His Majesty mentioned that the young prince hired an imperial physician." Yun Fenghuang finally turned his head and glanced at him, and asked with a smile, "I have heard that the young prince is delicate and expensive, but I don't know what's going on this time? But The mountain is cold, the little prince can't bear it?"
Gong Xiangxiao's complexion became a little worse: "I don't need to worry about this matter of the prince's residence!"
"Speaking of which, it's almost time for the prince to discuss marriage?" Yun Fenghuang smiled and said "OK", and then said, "But I don't know if the regent has mentioned this matter recently, and which lady did he mention for the prince? ? If the son knows, you might as well say it out, maybe I can give you some details?"
"The empress is just a mere virtuous concubine, not the serious sister-in-law of my son." When mentioning this question, Gong Xiangxiao's eyebrows became more hostile, and he said in a blunt tone, "It seems that the empress is not qualified to intervene in such matters?"
Yun Fenghuang smiled, and didn't care about his attitude at all, and said: "Why do you need to be angry? Isn't this palace for your own good? The regent will take care of everything every day, and the palace will leave it to the princess to decide. But the princess's own flesh and blood seem to be very important. Tell her to worry, she just got sick two days ago? Where do you think the princess has the time to look after you?"
"Isn't it just because you want to persuade Your Majesty to remind the Regent, or ask Your Majesty to give the crown prince a hand, that's why you ask?"
Gong Xiangxiao didn't think she was so kind, he felt that Concubine Xian's words were threatening him: she could persuade the emperor to dictate his marriage!
"The virtuous concubine should worry more about her own family when she has free time!" Gong Xiangxiao took a deep breath, held back his anger, and said calmly, "Brother Ling still has a few unmarried, and the empress can't take care of herself, so why bother to divide this world?" Heart?"
Yun Fenghuang said calmly: "The most important thing for the Xie family now is Shangzhu. The marriage of the brothers can not be discussed until after the princess descends. But the prince, the marriages of the three princesses have been settled, and the prince is a prince. Brother, but there is no news so far, it is really worrying!"
While they were talking, Concubine Xuan and Concubine Rui had already discussed it once, and noticed the conversation between Yun Fenghuang and Gong Xiangxiao, she changed her mind, and interjected: "Why is the son of the regent prince going to discuss marriage? I don't know whose family you are talking about? Before I entered the palace, I was on good terms with all families, so I probably know each other."
Gong Xiangxiao denied it with a sullen face: "Father never mentioned that it was the concubine Xian who made fun of this son. Please don't misunderstand the concubine Xuan!"
"The prince is young. If you ask directly, he must be embarrassed to admit it." Yun Fenghuang smiled and said to Concubine Xuan, "But the prince is noble and worthy of being a prince's wife. There are only a few families. Since you all I know, why don't you guess?"
Concubine Xuan glanced at her suspiciously, and said cautiously: "How can such a thing be so easy to guess? If it is wrong and spread out, wouldn't it ruin the reputation of the young lady?"
Yun Fenghuang fluttered the round fan, and said happily: "There are no outsiders at the moment, we are all on our own, what's the point of saying a few words? Do you think this palace or the prince will be a gossip? It is impossible to get involved with the family of the young lady who is the wife of the eldest son, and it is impossible to talk to him. As for the eldest son, there is a difference between men and women, and he can't meet the ladies of other families!"
He said again, "Besides, the son is His Majesty's brother after all. Even if the son-in-law chosen by the regent himself is sure to be good, how can he not be a little curious? If you introduce him a few words, he will also miss you in his heart, right?" ?”
Concubine Xuan smiled and declined: "I have been in the palace for half a year, and I don't remember it very clearly. I am afraid that what I said was wrong, and it misled the prince instead."
Yun Fenghuang smiled, and simply leaned over, leaned close to her ear, and scolded in a low voice: "Are you stupid? Your family is so well-informed, have you ever heard that the regent is going to discuss marriage with the eldest son recently? This palace deliberately brought up this topic, why do you think? Who doesn’t know that the regent favors the step-concubine and the youngest son, and the eldest son is already so old, and the regent arranges serious errands for him. —It is rare to have a chance today to provoke their father and son to discord, why are you so stupid?"
"..." Concubine Xuan blushed at what she said. In fact, she had just heard Yun Fenghuang and Gong Xiangxiao mention their marriage, and she was also wondering whether she should add fuel to the indifferent relationship between father and son in the Prince Regent's Palace?
It's just that she didn't want to make this assist when she thought that the talk was started by Yun Fenghuang.
But now Concubine Xian has made it clear, if Concubine Xuan still doesn't say anything, she knows that Yun Fenghuang will definitely sue Chunjia when she turns around, saying that she doesn't care about the overall situation and doesn't understand the general situation.
Concubine Xuan was annoyed, but she had to grit her teeth and explain, "Your Majesty, forgive me, but I didn't think of this, I just chatted casually."
She gathered herself together, and then turned her head to introduce to Gong Xiangxiao the ladies she knew from various families—of course, she picked the ones who were born well, were favored, and had both talents and looks, and the regent was basically unlikely to tell the prince.
Yun Fenghuang was there to support her, swearing that these are IKEA and IKEA, the kind that if you marry, you will earn money. Even if she is in the deep palace, she has heard about it, and she has seen it with her own eyes at several palace banquets. However, she is definitely a virtuous and virtuous master with both talent and appearance.
And won the favor of the family, it can definitely bring great help to the husband.
Gong Xiangxiao was still talking about "the two empresses misunderstood it, so it's not the case", but gradually he couldn't help listening to it: he should have said kiss long ago at his age.
And he also needs his wives to support him.
However, the regent didn't mention a word, and Princess Lu tried every means to stuff him with messy people.
Even though she knew that Concubine Xuan told herself that these were instigated by Yun Fenghuang face to face, she was uneasy and kind, but she still couldn't help but write down the candidates.
It didn't take long for Concubine Rui to join in. She and Concubine Xuan came from a family second only to the Ji family, and they came from the premier circle of noble ladies in the imperial capital.
At this moment, I gave Gong Xiangxiao a detailed and vivid introduction from family background to appearance, from temperament to talent, from father and brother to sisters and in-laws with Concubine Xuan, and Gong Xiangxiao couldn't help but imagine that if he could marry these Girl, how easy should my life be in the future... Before I knew it, the sun was slanting to the west, the sound of feasting and music below gradually stopped, and the concubines' attention was focused.
At this time, Chunjia finally returned to the table in a hurry. He changed into a robe, and his hair was a little wet. It seemed that he had been wrung out temporarily after taking a bath. The point was that Yin Qian, who accompanied him to "change clothes" before, was nowhere to be seen.
"What are the concubines and concubines talking about with the prince? It's so lively?" From a distance, I saw the three concubines dancing around Gongxiangxiao. After taking their seats, Chunjia excused everyone's courtesy and naturally asked, "I just walked over. When I listened to it, it seems to be talking about the daughter of a certain family?"
Concubine Xuan hurriedly said: "Your Majesty, I heard that the regent is looking for a wife for the son, and the son is curious about his future wife, so the concubines should let the son know the truth!"
