Chapter 82 Chunjia: Do You Really Understand Me? ? ?
To be honest, Yun Fenghuang loved Xie Meng and Xie Kuo's nieces, but he didn't like them to the point of treating them as his own and keeping them close to him.
The reason why the two children were kept in the palace on and off for a few days was, in the final analysis, to fight for favor, and things developed like this when talking in a hurry.
This time the two children were driven away, although there was a reason for it, Yun Fenghuang was also happy and relaxed.
After all, when Xie Meng and Xie Kuo were in the palace, although they were taken care of by the palace people most of the time, she didn't want her to worry much, but occasionally he still had to ask.
Especially Xie Meng, the niece of the first line, feels that she is deeply loved by her aunt, and sometimes she will take the initiative to pester her if she cannot be summoned.
Yun Fenghuang had to be extra patient with her in order not to expose her lie of "being unable to have children so she loves her niece who looks like her like a treasure".
Hearing Jiang's words at this moment, he felt a little displeased: "Meng'er is reckless and not suitable for the palace. As for Kuo'er, she is a good seedling, but since she is not in our room, I don't really want to cultivate her; Secondly, her temperament... I don't know if she will be stabbed in the future?"
She doesn't think that a child who looks well-behaved, tolerant and sensible must be particularly good.
After all, she herself used to do things under such a shell when she was a child...
Wouldn't it be embarrassing if my niece used similar tricks?
"But even if it's not Meng'er Kuo'er, I think it's better for you to raise a few nieces under your knees." Jiang said slowly, "It's fine if you don't have any thoughts, but if there are, the girls who were raised by you , the value of marriage is not comparable to that of the girls you raised before? You now have Princess Zhaoqing as a daughter, but this is the eldest daughter of the emperor. It is impossible to say that you can promise whoever you want, and you can There are too few, just such a girl can win a family at most. Can it be convenient to have a niece?"
These words are cruel, they don't treat girls like Xie Meng as human beings.
But Yun Fenghuang understood that this was the truth.
She pondered for a while, then said, "Then I'll bring them over later, but in this case, it's best to add one or two more children."
Jiang asked: "Is there any opinion in the palace?"
"The concubine doesn't dare to meddle in my business. As for the Empress Dowager and the two Empress Dowagers, they don't have the heart to start a dispute over such a trivial matter now." Yun Fenghuang said, "It's just a matter of convincing Your Majesty... Coincidentally, not long ago, His Majesty was caught by me, and I wouldn't object if I think about it now."
So the mother and daughter discussed some countermeasures again, because the Jiang family will not leave for a short time this time, and will even stay in the imperial capital forever, so they saw that it was not early, so they got up and left.
When sending her out, Yun Fenghuang was in a good mood, turned around and heard the good news that a concubine surnamed Zhu in her palace was happy, counting the date was ordered by Yun Fenghuang two months ago Sometimes when serving Chunjia.
"It's just that the imperial doctor said that Zhu's fetal image is a bit unstable, and told her not to go out for the next three to two months." Qing Ren said, "Your Majesty, do you see this?"
"Of course the emperor's heir is important." Yun Fenghuang sighed, "I have raised three emperor's heirs under my knees, but I don't have a prince of my own yet. Let her rest assured and have a baby, Bengong Ming'er I will talk to the Empress Empress when I go to pay my respects, and I think the Empress Empress will not object."
When the queen heard the news the next day, she did not object, and she kindly gave her some nourishing food, encouraging Yun Fenghuang to take good care of Mrs. Zhu.
This is what should be done, but then I heard: "Gu Baolin is also happy?"
The corners of Gu Zhen's mouth curled up slightly, and he said slowly: "Yes, it's just that she's pregnant, and it's still not very safe, so this Palace also spared her greetings and told her to stay only in the side hall."
Yun Fenghuang narrowed his eyes slightly, thinking that it was no wonder the queen was so happy that Mrs. Zhu was pregnant. Originally, Gu Su's special status meant that the palace would not be peaceful after she became pregnant.
Although Zhu's weight is light, she is still a pregnant woman, so she can somewhat distract the court, right?
It is estimated that what the empress hopes most at this moment is to have more pregnant women in the high position, so as not to worry about Gu Su when she has nothing to do.
"This is a great happy event. Although His Majesty has many heirs now, it is good to have a baby." Yun Fenghuang said, "But I don't know how the empress plans to promote Gu Baolin?"
Gu Zhen was taken aback, she was only happy that she would have another son-in-law soon, but she didn't expect to be promoted: or, she didn't mention it on purpose.
After all, what the left and right said is right, if Gu Su becomes the lord of the first palace, it will not be a good thing for her relationship with the son-in-law in the future.
But after all, this is a tacit understanding in the palace. Since the noble concubine raised it in public, she can only say: "According to the rules, if a low-ranking concubine is pregnant, she can be promoted to a higher level. Naturally, follow the rules."
"That's what I said, but rules are dead, people are alive." Yun Fenghuang said softly, "There are still many vacancies for concubines, why don't we give them a few more ranks to show appreciation? How about concubines in the harem? When we serve His Majesty, we can also be more attentive."
Gu Zhen frowned, and realized that the imperial concubine wanted to make things difficult for him, and subconsciously thought that he didn't seem to have offended Xuanqing Palace recently... But then he thought, is the imperial concubine the kind of person who won't offend you if you don't offend her? ?
No, she is not.
The empress sighed resignedly, and got ready to go to war: "Rules are rules, what are you doing? If you always act like you said, concubine, what's the use of rules?"
"Your Majesty is right." Yun Fenghuang didn't fight her to the end this time. After pondering for a while, he compromised and said, "I only wanted to reward Mrs. Zhu well, but I was negligent, so I will follow what your Majesty said. .”
Gu Zhen didn't expect her to give in so quickly, looked at the concubine suspiciously for a while, and then said: "There is nothing else to do, let's go."
When the imperial concubine left, she pinched her eyebrows and asked the left and right, "What do you mean by the imperial concubine?"
"Although the imperial concubine did not succeed, but she said that, called Mrs. Zhu and the eighth miss, and other palace concubines heard it. How can they not say that she is generous and the empress is stingy?" Left and right sighed, "She just has bad intentions. "
But it can't be helped, Yun Fenghuang was favored in the first place, and what he said before was not too much, it was just a discussion with the queen.
The queen disagreed, and she didn't go her own way... Can't she be blamed?
Gu Zhen just had a headache: "She's been like this since then, and I don't know how many more things she has to look for in the future?"
Thinking of another matter, he asked, "Concubine Xian is about to give birth, how is she doing now?"
"Our people are watching, saying that some strangers have come in and out in the past two days." The servant whispered, "There are a few women inside who have brought a lot of boxes... It seems that they are asking for something, and they can get it in one fell swoop." male."
Gu Zhen sneered and said, "Didn't the imperial doctor see that it was a male fetus?"
"It's not that the imperial physician is always blind." The attendant said, "Maybe I want a prince too much. After hearing the imperial physician's words, I still feel uneasy?"
"You say, with Concubine Xian's birth status, there are only so many princes and princesses in the palace. Even if she is for the Yuan family and her own future, why should she be so concerned about wanting a prince?" Said, "Could it be that you have some other plan, so you have to get a prince out?"
The attendant knew that she was still thinking about what the concubine said back then, so he persuaded: "No matter whether it is or not, she is about to give birth in a few days, and we will just wait and see what happens. Besides, don't you also have arrangements?" ?”
Thinking that once Yuan Zhiniang gave birth to the prince and passed away, there would be news that the little prince would kill his mother, and it would be impossible for such a loving mother, the empress dowager, to force someone onto her, so Gu Zhen breathed a sigh of relief, saying: "Yes, Tell them to be careful, but not to slack off!"
Instead, she thought about Gu Su, and sighed, "I just hope she wins a man this time."
After two days like this, Chunjia went to Huanhua Hall and talked with Yun Fenghuang about the exile of Xie's children: "Didn't everyone stay in the imperial capital well before? Why do they all want to be exiled all of a sudden?"
"Didn't my mother come to see me before?" Yun Fenghuang said lazily, "Speaking of my brothers, they have been lazy in the imperial capital for the past two years, so I feel that since they eat the king's salary, they should be loyal to the king. It’s just that they are so capable now that they can’t do anything. Instead of wasting their time here in the Imperial Capital, it’s better to go out and sharpen them. If they really can’t be sharpened, simply go back to their hometown and forget about it. Don’t just occupy the seat and do nothing After all, Your Majesty has treated Mrs. Xie very kindly, but Mrs. Xie has not been able to share your worries so far. The elders in the family are very ashamed thinking about it, and feel that my brothers cannot live so comfortably."
Chunjia knew that this was half-truth and half-false, but after all, she loved the concubine, so she pretended to believe it, put her arms around her and kissed her with a smile: "The concubine is a virtuous and virtuous concubine, it seems that she has a family background, and Mrs. Jiang is so sympathetic. meaning."
He thought in his mind that there are good and bad places that Xie's children request to be released. For example, Xie Wuzheng, the leader's son-in-law, asked for relatively poor and complicated prefectures and counties. Others said that the reputation was not very good Ordinary, but I want to go to a rich place. It seems that the concubine mother and daughter wanted to use this method to screen and determine how to allocate resources in the future.
This is what Chunjia wanted to know, so he didn't intend to stop him, he laughed and made a fuss with Yun Fenghuang for a while, then looked back at the heirs together, and prepared to make arrangements.
Yun Fenghuang remembered that after making out, she hugged his neck and acted like a baby, saying that she sent Xie Meng Xie Kuo back because she was too busy, but in the past two days, she missed him again and wanted to take him back and continue to raise him.
It wasn't Chunjia's intention that Xie Meng and Xie Kuo be sent back before, but now it's just a trivial matter for the emperor to take Xie Kuo back, and he agreed to take advantage of it.
However, Yun Fenghuang took advantage of the situation and proposed that Jiang's brother and Xie's tenth son's daughter, Xie Weng (weng), who was with the Jiang family, also wanted to join him: "Weng is more powerful than Meng'er." One year younger, she didn't remember me very much when I left home. I was not close to her, but my tenth elder brother and tenth sister-in-law treated me very well. Such a mother came all the way to accompany me. If Menger came to me, but she was left in front of my thirteenth and eighteenth brothers, how could she not be sad?"
Chunjia was originally in a lazy state of mind, but upon hearing this she became a little vigilant, guessing that the imperial concubine's request might not be simple.
Jiang's intention is not complicated, she wants her daughter to give Xie Meng and the others a high status, so that they will be useful in marriage in the future.
According to his arrangement for the Xie family, he can promote them but does not plan to support them to become a famous family, let alone give power to the government and the public.
Even Yun Fenghuang's young sisters, the emperor doesn't want them to marry too many noble children, let alone Xie Meng, a group of girls who grew up under Yun Fenghuang's care, if they go out to marry, I'm afraid It is more useful than their aunt. But when the words of objection came to his lips, he remembered the matter of the imperial concubine's hunger strike a few days ago.
After all, this request is reasonable and the imperial concubine is a keen mind, if she insists on opposing her, there might be trouble again.
It was only before that Yun Fenghuang suspected that he didn't take himself seriously, and making such a fuss, wouldn't it be another old story?
Chunjia knew very well in his heart that he really liked the noble concubine, but he also sincerely wanted to be a holy son, and the latter determined that he could not truly indulge the noble concubine without a bottom line. In many cases, even the noble concubine can't even be done justice, which caused that once the noble concubine questioned his sincerity, it was often difficult for him to prove it.
At this moment, my thoughts turned a few times, and I finally compromised. I secretly thought that Xie Meng and the others would have a few years before they reached adulthood. Mind, it may not be able to do anything... right?
Anyway, after being swayed and acted like a spoiled child by Yun Fenghuang for a while, Chunjia agreed in a confused way, and asked her if the place in Xuanqing Palace was enough to live in? If it is not enough to live in, you can change to a bigger palace.
... The next day when Chunjia went to court, she felt a little regretful in retrospect, but at this time, she went to tell the imperial concubine that she would take back her life, fearing that Yun Fenghuang would turn the world upside down. I pray that there will be no concubines who don't have long eyes to come out and object?
Or the two empress dowagers can stand up.
But it may be that he favored Yunfenghuang too much before, and everyone is used to it. Now that the three ladies of the Xie family are staying here, they are all staying in the Xuanqing Palace anyway, and they can't make trouble with others. It doesn't matter to them if they are kicked out The good thing, after all, there is no need to offend Yun Fenghuang, or Chunjia.
So not only did no one jump out to object, even Gu Zhen was virtuous, and when Chunjia went to Yanfu Palace, Tong Chunjia mentioned that he had made up a new year's money for the three ladies of the Xie family: "Although it is not a clan Children, but since they are the nieces of the imperial concubine and are raised in the palace, they are treated as children of relatives."
Seeing that Gu Zhen looked like she was waiting to be praised for her generosity after saying this, Chun Jia took a deep breath to hold back the words that she could not wink, and said softly: "The virtuous queen is the blessing of the Six Palaces."
He was still not reconciled, the next day he went to Chunwan Palace to pay his respects to Jiashan Palace, and deliberately mentioned that Yun Fenghuang picked up Xie Meng and Xie Kuo, and added a thank you thing.
Originally, I thought that even if Empress Dowager Qu didn't say anything, Empress Dowager Yuan would definitely not tolerate it.
As a result, Empress Dowager Yuan was disheartened after falling out with him last time, and she said lightly after hearing the words: "You don't have to talk to the Ai family about this kind of thing in the future, the Ai family is just lucky enough to support you for a few years, and it can't be your business." Bring it up and explain it to the Ai family."
And expressing in secret that your mother didn't talk about it, the adoptive mother of Ai's family didn't dare to talk about it.
So Chunjia not only failed to get what she wanted, but instead spent a long time being a low-key and low-spirited little one, and finally managed to coax the Empress Dowager Yuan to calm down a little.
Empress Dowager Yuan felt that the relationship between the mother and son was stumbling, and it was better not to make trouble because of Xie Mengsan. After all, she didn't really want to break up with Chunjia.
In this way, the emperor was busy for a long time, and finally returned disappointed.
He still wanted to think of a countermeasure, in short, he couldn't let the Xie family get too strong, but the news came the next day, which made him have no time to take care of this matter.
