Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 134 Companion Reading Selection

In the harem, the news that Yunfenghuang was still alive, except for the empress who was on pins and needles, everyone else was surprised and gave up.

After all, all these years, Concubine Min's favor has been seen by everyone, even the Empress Dowager Yuan, who single-handedly raised Emperor Chunjia, can't win, so what else are they thinking?

But she was more and more afraid to offend Xuanqing Palace.

As for the previous dynasty, there was a solid undercurrent surging once.

Because everyone felt that the imperial concubine had no biological flesh and blood under her knees, so in the future she would have to support King Qin and the others, and compete with Zhong Gong's legitimate sons for a while.

Not to mention being able to give birth now.

For a while, the marriage of Yun's and Yin's young children was affected.

After all, both of these two families have princes who are raised under Yun Fenghuang's knees, and everyone has to consider the consequences of success or failure if the imperial concubine participates in the seizure of the crown prince in the future.

When Jiang entered the palace, she specially reminded her daughter: "The more you have to be careful at this time, don't think that now that you are a noble concubine and His Majesty dotes on you, you can be negligent. Those who hate you even before I don't have any enmity with you, so maybe I want to get rid of you right now... Those who congratulate, as long as they are not afraid of offending them, they can push it away. They just talk about your sad Zhaoqing to the outside world, and they have no time to pay attention to it. "

The voice lowered, "The more it is at this time, the more you can't ignore Qin Wang Zhaoqing and the others, otherwise it will be said that you have your own flesh and blood and don't care about the emperor's heir without blood. How can His Majesty be happy when he hears it? In the future, the children will grow up. If you don’t have anything to do, you will also lose your heart, isn’t it a waste of money!”

She has experience in raising unrelated children, and she raises them very well, relying on Xie Fenghuan to gain a lot of prestige.

Yun Fenghuang naturally accepted it humbly, and said: "In the past two days, I have seen the King of Qin and the others a little more than before. I met His Majesty face to face, and mentioned the children, but I didn't mention my own body. .”

"That's right." Jiang smiled slightly, and said in a low voice, "You only have the body to hope to conceive, and it doesn't mean that you have given birth to the prince safely. Think about your aunt, who gave birth to ten or so children in her life. One child, but no male heirs, all girls! Although my son is blessed with great blessings, he will definitely not follow in her footsteps, but there is no need for people to laugh at you. The degree, the gesture of treating the emperor's heir as if he was his own, and when his own prince falls to the ground in the future, he will have to be supported by his brothers and sisters. You are good to King Qin and the others, can you still work for nothing?"

He also told her that even if her own flesh and blood fell to the ground, she should not ignore King Qin and other adopted sons and daughters, "After all, the biological ones will not easily hold grudges, and the unrelated ones are not necessarily!"

After saying this, Yun Fenghuang's face froze slightly, and he looked at her suspiciously: "So back then, you protected Sixth Sister in every way, did you do it on purpose?"

"Of course I did it on purpose." Jiang glanced at her, and said with a half-smile, "You were so sharp and young at that time, I can't tell you clearly, and I'm afraid you will spoil us by speaking out in a fit of anger. Because of the reputation of this house, I can only talk to you about sisterhood. In fact, you are a prostitute, and she is a concubine. If you don’t tell me, I won’t tell you, who doesn’t know it? Is it possible that because your mother is kind to Feng Huan and makes you respect your elder sister with the same father, they look down on you outside? Not only will they not despise you, but they also think that your mother is virtuous and generous, and the children they teach will be sure It’s a good one. To talk about your grievances, in fact, it’s just some clothes and jewelry. Even if the maid chooses it first, you will take it later, not to mention that she always lets you. If you think you like it, you won’t choose it. , even if she takes it every time, as a mother, you are in charge of the family, can you still ask you to dress up?"

"Sacrificing such a small benefit, in exchange for everyone saying that we are good, and you say it yourself, is this business worthwhile?"

Seeing Yun Fenghuang staring at herself, seemingly dissatisfied, she chuckled, "Shouldn't I protect your sister? To be honest, your sister is soft-tempered, but being filial and considerate is too strong for you. This point, I love her and it’s not in vain. Besides, according to the rules and affection, I should indeed favor you more. But by doing this, not only you and my mother and daughter will disappear from everyone, but you will not be able to be virtuous and virtuous as a mother. How can your sister not feel uncomfortable? So our three mothers are not only divorced, but also have no real benefits. But protecting your sister for your mother, you were wronged for a while when you were young, and later Because your sister treats you well, gradually you will pretend, and the sisters start to get along well, both inside and outside, they also say that we are good...if it weren't for..."

She sighed, "Even now, when that screwdriver attacks you, he can only talk about Qi's son back and forth. There is nothing to say about your upbringing. Why? It's not because of your mother's reputation in the north." ? The good reputation of being a mother is mostly based on your sister's gesture!"

"Now Qin Wang Zhaoqing is your posture. Especially Zhaoqing!"

"After all, among the emperor's heirs under your knees, the King of Qin and the Seventh Prince have important ministers as foreign families, and the Ninth Prince is your heir."

"It's just Zhaoqing, the biological mother said she was a concubine, but in front of you, she's just like a slave."

"Still a girl with a limp."

"At this moment, you treat her well and care more about her than your own flesh and blood. Only then can you show your sincerity and virtue, understand?"

Yun Fenghuang snorted: "Mother, your fate is good, and you have a talkative girl like Sixth Sister. Zhaoqing is not a good tempered! I thought earlier, when she grows up, she must be disciplined. After all The imperial confinement is no better than our kind of people. They are too pampered and jealous, and they never bring me trouble. Besides, when I had a quarrel with Sixth Sister, you were able to protect Sixth Sister with all my heart. It was not because Sixth Sister never Fight back, but cover it up for me? If Sixth Sister fights me tit for tat, or even suppresses me everywhere, will you help her?"

Jiang took a deep look at her: "Help her, why not help her? Let me tell you, as the saying goes, from frugality to extravagance is easy, and from extravagance to frugality is difficult. After she grows up, she will be disciplined severely, and she will hate you, not to mention that she is not related by blood? Since Zhao Qing has been pampered, if you discipline her in this situation, there will inevitably be a gap between mother and daughter. Come on, wouldn’t all previous efforts be wasted? It’s better to let her go, anyway, her backer is not you alone, isn’t there still His Majesty here? As long as she is the emperor’s favorite, why do you care about her nonsense?”

"As for your own flesh and blood falling to the ground in the future, she can't tolerate it. Your Majesty is wise and mighty, so why don't you mention some rules to her?"

"After all, she is the child raised by you alone, can you still make her wings hard?"

The implication is that unrelated adopted sons and daughters, who are sensible, considerate and able to raise mature ones, should naturally be treated well.

If there is no measure, then use them all and cook them before their wings grow hard.

"...That's true." Yun Fenghuang pondered for a moment, and said, "By the way, have you chosen a companion for King Qin at home? King Qin and Zhaoqing are also six years old this year. If it weren't for the war in Northern Xinjiang, their birthday They will start school when they come back. His Majesty said at this moment that they will start classes when they come back from the summer vacation.”

Jiang said, "Is Her Royal Highness Princess Zhaoqing still going?"

Yun Fenghuang frowned and said: "I don't want her to go, one is that her leg injury is still not healed, it is inconvenient for her to go in and out, she is naughty, don't make any troubles, it will make things worse; two is that the other emperor's biological mother will definitely They are not allowed to talk nonsense. Children of this age may not be able to abide by the rules. When the time comes, she will be sad, and I will follow suit. But she is so strong and tight. His Majesty promised her to relax before. I have finished my studies, and I heard that the King of Qin and the others have been studying, but they actually struggled to get up to do their homework... Now His Majesty is feeling sad, and her request, as long as it is not very serious, will be accepted."

He told Jiang, "I would like to transfer Kuo'er to her as a reading companion. Although Kuo'er is deep in thought, he is also calm and steady. But I am afraid that Meng'er and Ma'er will not be happy."

"It's not a matter of being unhappy." Jiang shook his head and said, "If Zhaoqing is fine, I will definitely not say anything if you do this. After all, you have taken good care of our fourth room, and the fourth room's children are not up to date. Who can be blamed? The key is that Zhaoqing is still young, and you are hiding it from her. She still doesn't know what her leg will be like in the future, and what it means. If she has the temperament of your sixth sister, you should be more considerate to her. , That is to say. If she hates anyone, she won't hate you."

"But since she is so strong, who knows if she will take her anger on you in the future?"

"At this time, if there is a child like Meng'er who is wholeheartedly devoted to you by her side, then it's okay, and maybe she can help smooth things over."

"Ko Kuo'er... She is not your niece and niece after all, maybe the second wife was the first thing she thought of?"

"The second room doesn't have any useful talents right now." Yun Fenghuang said, "Could it be that they think something went wrong with me, what good will it do them?"

Jiang Shi looked at her: "If it wasn't for Wuzheng's sudden emergence, Shangzhu's candidate should be the eleventh of the second room?"

Seeing Yun Fenghuang raising his eyebrows, he sighed, "Princess Zhaoqing, isn't she also a golden branch and jade leaf? Compared with Her Royal Highness Princess Suian, she is still the eldest daughter of the emperor! You may ask Kuoer to accompany her. Kuo'er just wants to tell her to the children of the Second Household? If you don't agree then, the adopted daughter and niece will have to leave; if you agree...the child will be raised by the Second Household."

"Zhaoqing is only young, and Kuo'er is several years older than her. When she discusses marriage, Kuo'er will probably have children." Yun Fenghuang said this, feeling inappropriate in his heart, After all, the eldest daughter of the emperor is still a very important bargaining chip. Unless Zhaoqing has everything she wants when she grows up, she will never allow this daughter to descend from the Xie family.

It must be used to win over other famous families.

Although the possibility Jiang mentioned, she felt that she had to watch it, even if Xie's second wife thought about it, she might not be able to achieve what she wanted, but why give them a chance, right?

He said, "But Meng'er's temperament is too careless. I think it's enough to take care of myself, let alone take care of Zhaoqing. As for Miao'er... She has been in the palace for the past two days. Not delicate. Zhaoqing is like this now, it’s better to be accompanied by a gentle, meticulous and tolerant companion. Otherwise, I don’t think it’s easy to get along. But the daughters-in-law in the family, especially at this age, are mostly spoiled .”

Although the Xie family's lintel is not high, in the eyes of the high-ranking families in the imperial capital, they are purely a rich man from the countryside.

But because the northern land is remote and the clan is powerful, the magistrates mainly win over big families like the Xie family and the Qi family.

Therefore, the heirs born in the family are all pampered and grown up, and they may be a little more sensible when they grow up.

Accompanying the prince and princess who just entered school at this age, it is really possible to roll up your sleeves and fight with golden branches and jade leaves.

Xie Meng has this tendency...

There are really very few people who are as sensible and tolerant as Xie Kuo...

Yun Fenghuang asked Jiang right now, among the nephews and nieces who grew up in the past two years, is there any who are so sensible and know how to advance and retreat?

"...Or, look at the concubines in the family?" Hearing this, Jiang was a little embarrassed, saying that the family had never thought of such a revitalization of the family before, and had never thought of leaving the hometown to develop abroad. His upbringing, of course, is based on the way of thinking of local snakes.

And because of the tight rules, it is not allowed to spoil concubines and kill wives, and the interests of the heirs are strictly protected. After many generations, the best heirs to live is probably Xie Fenghuan.

This is also a special case where the aunt needs to gain fame and she is soft and pleasing.

In this case, if you want to find a little girl who can wink at a young age to come to the princess, then you can only consider the concubine daughter.

The prostitute in the family can at most put on a pretense, but the key point is that with such a young child, you can't trust her pretense.

What if she couldn't pretend one day and quarreled or even fought with the princess, what would she do if she called Yun Fenghuang?

Even if the niece is disposed of, it is hard not to be left behind as a nepotism, not careful enough to choose the princess companion, and then be questioned that she does not love the princess enough.

This is the embarrassment of not being related by blood. If Zhaoqing is Yunfenghuang's biological daughter, where is there so much trouble?

But she is not.

Therefore, all aspects must be considered.

"The status of a concubine is a bit low." Yun Fenghuang frowned upon hearing this, and said, "Don't people think that I have treated the princess badly in order to win over my natal family."

Jiang said: "It can be recorded under the name of the aunt as the daughter of the aunt. Besides, the princess doesn't have to be accompanied by only one companion, she must have someone of her own."

That's true.

Yun Fenghuang pondered, and said: "In two days, I will be leaving for the palace. Let them come to meet me and show the princess to see if there is a suitable one. Otherwise, I still have to look at those high-ranking The little girl from the noble lady's family. Your Majesty is very sympathetic to Zhaoqing now, and it is not good to treat her badly in all kinds of things, otherwise, if your Majesty doesn't say it, you may not remember it in your heart."

After the lessons of the year, no matter how magnanimous Chunjia is now, she doesn't believe it anymore!

So the matter was settled like this, Jiang went back to help her find a companion, and she herself was thinking about which girl would be suitable for Zhaoqing's other companions?

Two days before departure, Chunjia came to Huanhua Hall, visited Zhaoqing first as usual, checked King Qin's homework, and finally mentioned to Yunfenghuang: "The two children should go to school when they come back from the summer vacation. Did you ever finalize it?"
