Chapter 159

Due to the increase of Yunfenghuang's heirs, especially after King Qin and Zhaoqing grew up, both of them have domineering temperaments, Xie Mengsan hasn't seen her aunt for a long time.

Now after coming here to salute, there is a little rustiness in his demeanor.

"This palace is quite busy these days, but I have neglected you." Yun Fenghuang looked over one by one, a little embarrassed, children of this age grow up fast, and they haven't seen each other for three or two months, they look the same at first glance Look, Xie Xie, who has changed the most, almost didn't recognize her.

"What did my aunt say? It is a great kindness that my aunt is willing to keep my nieces by my side." Xie Mo glanced at the two younger sisters, and seeing that Xie Meng was silent, she tentatively replied, "My aunt's hard-working nieces. Seeing it all, I wish I could share my worries for my aunt."

Among the three sisters, Xie Xie is the oldest.

But Xie Meng was the first to come to Yun Fenghuang, and he was recognized as the most favored by Yun Fenghuang.

So Xie Mu and Xie Kuo were led by Xie Meng whether intentionally or not.

Now Xie Meng is silent, only the longest Xie Xie dared to speak.

"Just now your eighteenth aunt came over and said something. She should have told you in person to see what you mean." Yun Fenghuang's kind words of condolence eased the estranged aunt and nephew who hadn't seen each other for a long time. Friendship, said just now, "But she is only pregnant, and she should not be out for too long. Therefore, I asked her to go back first, and let you know by myself."

In the past, whether it was the Xiao Chen family or the Xiao Jiang family, including the Jiang family before leaving, they all came to the palace from time to time.

But not every time they will meet Xie Meng and the others, let alone Yun Fenghuang will tell them things in person.

The three sisters are not considered complete children at this age, and they all sensed something abnormal, and their expressions were slightly awe-inspiring.

"You don't have to be so nervous." Yun Fenghuang noticed, and said gently, "This matter, I have already declined..."

She just told the old lady of the Xie family what she wanted to tell Xie Meng to her natal nephew and grandson, without adding any details, it was very straightforward.

Even so, it also changed the faces of the three sisters!

As the party concerned, Xie Meng was so angry that his eye circles were red, he got up directly, threw himself into Yun Fenghuang's arms, choked up and said: "I don't want to marry that family! I don't even remember what their family looks like! Great-grandmother wants to support them, why don't they let them go to the grasslands to fight their lives and earn military merits like our uncles and fathers, why should I think!!!"

Yun Fenghuang caressed her hair, and said softly: "I also have the same idea, but...your great-grandmother is our elder after all. If she has this idea, even if I don't like it, even if I don't agree with it, I can't accept it." Directly veto it. I can only use an excuse to say that it has been arranged for you... Otherwise, this palace and you will have to fall apart."

Although Xie Mu and Xie Kuo have not been remembered by the old lady of the Xie family, but from what happened to Xie Meng, one can also imagine that there may not be a few people who think like the old lady of the Xie family in the big Xie family.

After all, they are now following Yun Fenghuang, although they are trying their best to marry into a noble family and change their identities and their descendants' identities. Aren't those Xie clansmen who have no chance to directly climb up to Yunfenghuang, who are from their own family, also gearing up, hoping to use their marriage to attract themselves or their relatives?

The two looked at each other, both shuddered, and at the same time, there was a subtle feeling that it was fortunate that the old lady of the Xie family was interested in Xie Meng.

This is Yun Fenghuang's favorite niece.

The noble concubine would definitely not let her marry into a family that could intermarry before the Xie family developed.

If the old lady of the Xie family had her eyes on the two of them, it would be really hard to say.

Thinking of this, Xie Xie Xie Kuo's face was a little heavy: What if the old lady of Xie's family was rejected and chose the two of them instead?

Xie Xie is better, after all, her real grandmother is the Jiang family, and the Jiang family is famous for deceiving people.

As long as Jiang shi sincerely thinks about her, Mrs. Xie's plans may still come to nothing.

Xie Kuo was in trouble.

Xie Kuo's mother Xiao Luo Shi and grandmother Luo Shi are not very popular in front of Mrs. Xie's family.

The main reason is that Roche is not good at coaxing elders.

Xiao Luo's temperament is also jealous, and his reputation is not very good.

That is to say, if the old lady of the Xie family takes a fancy to her, then she has no one to turn to for help other than counting on her cousin Yun Fenghuang... Before, she could let her father and uncle think of a way, after all, Xie Fu tried every means to send her off. Entering the palace and coming to Yun Fenghuang, she also has the intention of cultivating a future daughter-in-law of the Gao family, and she will definitely not look at the old lady of the Xie family to ruin her future.

But now Xie Fu and the others are all on the grassland...

Can't wait!

"I have already sent someone to tell your great-grandmother that I have already arranged the marriage of the three of you." Yun Fenghuang waited for them to panic before opening his mouth slowly, "It's just that... the current status of this palace is relaxed. Here, the scheming on the surface can protect you all, but the scheming in private, this palace is also useless!"

Xie Kuo couldn't help but ask: "My aunt has a noble status, since she is willing to protect her nieces, who else would dare to plot secretly?"

"Why not?" Yun Fenghuang glanced at her and said lightly, "For example, in two years when you are older and should talk about getting married, if your mother-in-law, or aunt and aunt's, come to the Imperial Capital and ask you out Walking around, but in the end, there are unclear and unreasonable rumors with the outsider, and then they say they want to calm things down, so what can I do?"

"For another example, Quandang didn't see Ben Gong's reply, so he quickly exchanged your birthday horoscope with others. If Ben Gong finds you the children of a wealthy family, I will sue you for dislike the poor and love the rich." Come make a fuss..."

"For example..."

She casually talked about several nonsense ways of stalking and defrauding marriages to force marriages. They are all extremely sinister and vicious methods for the future of bad people. Only when the three nieces were trembling, she stopped, and said softly, "So you should also pay attention to it yourself. , don’t give others an opportunity to take advantage of it.”

Seeing that the faces of the nieces are not very good, Yun Fenghuang is not consoling, but tells them a lot about the wealth and arbitrariness of the rich and powerful, and encourages them to study hard and strive to become a girl with both talent and beauty as soon as possible, so that she can serve them well. Plan a good future.

When he was done, he waved his hand and sent the person away.

After all, these three are going to marry high families in the future, so it is also a good thing to take advantage of this opportunity to drive a wedge between them and the Xie family.

Yun Fenghuang didn't have the heart to make wedding clothes for others.

Even if this other person is her blood relative.

Having arranged for three nieces, Yun Fenghuang wondered whether to stay with Yi Xingen or not.

After two days like this, she still couldn't make up her mind, and was summoned by the queen to Chongchang Hall to discuss the fate of the second princess.

Although this princess is young, she has caused quite a lot of trouble.

During the summer vacation alone, Concubine Shu had already been given the lead, and the queen was also displeased.

Now that she was back in the palace, Concubine Jing had no choice but to join the battle.

Although she really doesn't like this cheap daughter very much, especially after she has her own prince, no matter how she pretends on the surface, she definitely doesn't like the second prince in her heart, but...

First of all, this is not a reason to be cheaper than others!

Secondly, if the emperor or empress forced her to give the second emperor daughter to other people to be raised due to various considerations, that's fine. It happened that the second princess was getting close to Concubine Xian, so Concubine Xian came to speak, how could Concubine Jing bear this tone?

It was spread out, but I can't think how harsh she was on the second princess, so much so that this daughter who was raised by her was coaxed away by others just for a summer vacation!

If the second emperor was older, everyone might accuse the second emperor of having no conscience and not being familiar with her.

But this golden branch and jade leaf is only five years old this year. Everyone will only think that Concubine Jing is useless, and she can't even win over such a young child.

He deserves to be infamous.

Concubine Jing would not agree to hand over the second princess because of her own reputation.

But Concubine Xian was very insistent, even the empress smoothed things over and said that if another concubine becomes pregnant, unless the empress has nothing to do with her, she will be raised by her, but she also refused.

The reason for her refusal is also very sad: "The empress is kind, and the concubine accepts it physically and mentally. But you know, the concubine. Since entering the palace, I have been happy twice. Could it be that the white-haired person sent the black-haired person... The concubine is really I can't take it anymore. Since the second princess has a good relationship with this concubine, and at this age, she looks very lively and strong. I really hope that she can accept this concubine for a long time."

Thinking of Concubine Xian's two undestined children, especially Xiangxiu, the fifth emperor's daughter-in-law who was named by Chunjia herself, the queen couldn't help but sigh: "You have suffered, but there is nothing you can do about it. You still have to deal with it." You are young, it is not that your Majesty will not go to your place, and you may not have hope to support your own flesh and blood in the future, but why should you fight with Concubine Jing?"

Concubine Xian first begged, pretending that she had already lost two of her own children in a row, and could no longer bear the pain of the child's death, and begged Concubine Jing, who already had her own child, to give her the second princess.

When nothing came to fruition, she turned her face.

Instead, he blamed Concubine Jing's inconsiderate and inappropriate treatment of the second emperor, and suspected that Concubine Jing didn't really want to raise the second emperor at all!

Concubine Jing was so angry that she said, "This concubine has been raising the second prince for many years, and no one has ever said anything bad! The concubine Xian kept saying that the concubine was harsh on the second prince, so how did the second prince look so lively and strong?! Relying on her own talent?!"

"If you really care about the second princess, you shouldn't stop me from raising her!" The left and right sides had already torn their faces, Concubine Xian sneered, and said with emotion, "The second princess was young before, and she was well-fed and well-dressed." You don’t need to worry about these things, the servants below can do it. But now that the children are in school, just like you did before ten days and a half months without asking a question, you can Have you raised your child well? Especially after you have your own flesh and blood, you hold on to the sky and don’t let go, and you still think of the second emperor?! Bah! Now that you keep someone and refuse to give it to me, it’s just that you don’t like the second emperor! It seems that you have been mother and daughter for the past five years, but you are so cruel, I really don't know how your heart grows!"

"Concubine Xian, please don't talk about the imperial daughter's entry into school!" Concubine Jing blushed, and sneered, "You don't think about a barbarian from the grassland like you, I'm afraid you may not be able to write your own name, do you still expect to write a book? After the imperial daughter enters school, will you help with her homework? If you can’t explain homework to the imperial heir, then what can you do besides taking care of the imperial heir to eat, drink and have fun? If you look at it this way, it’s better for the second imperial daughter to stay with the concubine. After all, the concubine Although I am not talented, I am a decent and famous family, and I have dabbled in piano, chess, calligraphy, painting, poetry, poetry and Fu!"

Concubine Xian said coldly: "Oh? Then you have the face to say it? Long before the emperor's heirs formally entered school, the imperial concubine had personally explained the lessons to King Qin and His Royal Highness Zhaoqing, how about you? But throwing out a literate It doesn’t matter if the maid goes to serve the second emperor, or whether the maid is playing with the second emperor or seriously teaching the second emperor? Who wouldn’t know how to be a concubine like this? Or do you think there are no maids who can read and write in front of this palace? Heirs, pay attention and personally open a side hall in the Taichu Palace to supervise, otherwise, the second emperor will not know what it will be like to be delayed by you!"

How could this be delayed?

It's just an imperial daughter. Could it be that she missed the exam for the number one scholar? !

Concubine Jing laughed back angrily: "Anyway, the second princess is the daughter of the concubine, and it is clearly recorded on the jade plate that the concubine will not be robbed by others in one day! Concubine, but don't forget, it's not your turn to make decisions in this palace!"

As he spoke, he turned to the queen and the noble concubine, knelt down and kowtowed heavily, begging them to make the decision.

The queen looked at the noble concubine helplessly, coughed dryly and said, "Get up, this matter..."

Looking at the concubine Xian who was crumbling on the other side, and she fainted immediately after she said "no", Gu Zhen felt a headache, so he said directly, "Go down first, I will discuss it with the imperial concubine!"

Concubine Xian and Concubine Jing glared at each other and took leave.

Only the queen and concubine and their attendants were left in the palace, Gu Zhen pinched his forehead and asked irritably, "Concubine, what do you think about this matter?"

"The empress is in charge of this matter. No matter how the empress decides, what can concubine Jing or Xian concubine do with her?" Yun Fenghuang was also speechless, "The concubine feels that this matter cannot be delayed, but it is not What a big deal. Who is raising the second emperor? Isn’t it raising the second princess? It has delayed the time and spread the word, and may cause other troubles at that time!"

The voice lowered, "Don't forget that Yixi is still recuperating, Wei He and us are not purely of the same mind, God knows if they will make use of it?"

These words reminded Gu Zhen, he pondered for a moment, and asked tentatively: "You said, let's accept Concubine Xian, as a way to appease Yixi's injury, how about it?"

Yun Fenghuang was noncommittal: "The empress thinks it's good, so that's good."

Anyway, Concubine Jing doesn't have a good relationship with her, so if she is robbed of her daughter, just rob her.

It can be calculated that the biological mother of the second emperor's daughter, Liang, came out of Xuanqing Palace. If it were not for the current situation, the second emperor's daughter should be the daughter of Yun Fenghuang.

Although they failed to become a mother and daughter, when the second emperor's daughter was not disobedient and unfilial to Yun Fenghuang, Yun Fenghuang didn't care about opening a little back door for her, it was a reward for Liang's docile and well-behaved back then.

So after a while, Concubine Xian couldn't help thanking her and left, but Concubine Jing stayed in the Chongchang Palace and wept loudly, telling all kinds of grievances that she couldn't live without her daughter.

Yun Fenghuang was impatient to listen, so he simply left the queen to deal with Concubine Jing, and walked away.

After returning to Huanhua Hall, I saw Hong'e coming up to her, and said with a complicated expression: "Madam, just now Qu Shi sent someone to report that Qu Shi is almost two months pregnant."
