Treacherous Living in the Imperial Harem

Chapter 322: Twin Sisters

Cui hesitated to speak, and finally said: "Your Highness means that he wants to adopt a male heir from Xie's family to his knees, and talk about loneliness... Before, His Highness lived in Xie's residence for a while, and he liked Brother Ten very much. Zhong'er on my knees..."

Yun Fenghuang was a little surprised, and said: "There is no mention of anything in the letter from home. When did this happen? Did it mean His Highness himself, or did someone say something to His Highness?"

"It should be His Highness's own intention?" Cui thought for a while, and said, "Maybe it is because of the concubine's persuasion? I heard from the waiters around His Highness that before His Highness saw the prosperity of the Xie family's heirs, he often felt sad when there was no one there." Sad. It's just that I didn't say anything at the time. After coming back last year, His Highness once went to the palace to visit the concubine, and after returning, he euphemistically mentioned this to his wife. It's just... the son-in-law didn't agree."

"Your Highness's mood, I can understand." Yun Fenghuang thought for a while, and Princess Sui'an was infertile. In this era of unfilial piety, there are three things that have no offspring. It is an unavoidable problem.

Not only Sui'an himself was brooding about it, but Yun Fenghuang felt it was a pity.

Her earlier idea for Xie Wuzheng was also adoptive, but Xie Wuzheng chose to be a love saint, and first let the words out, so that whether it is Yun Fenghuang or the rest of Xie's family, no matter what ideas she has, it is not good. Besides, thank you for nothing.

At this moment, Suian herself thought about a step-heir, and in Yun Fenghuang's mind, she agreed because of the brother-sister relationship; but because she was worried that Xie Wuzheng wanted to seek stability after he had feelings for his heir, she was a little entangled .

At this moment, he said slowly, "However, this is a big matter. Back then, the son-in-law made an oath in front of His Majesty, but it was not easy to do so. Besides, even if you want to adopt a step-heir, you should first choose from the big house. Although Sifang and the son-in-law are also close relatives, they are separated by a floor."

Cui hurriedly said: "The tenth brother actually declined when he knew that His Highness liked Zhong'er, and he went to explain to his uncle and aunt. But the meaning of the son-in-law is that since he made a promise with His Majesty back then, he can be regarded as a nephew of the eldest family. I don't want my son either. Your Highness feels sorry for the son-in-law, and has been thinking about how to persuade the son-in-law recently."

"The son-in-law is that character." Yun Fenghuang prevaricated casually, "This matter has passed the clear road in front of His Majesty. Not to mention that the son-in-law has a deep affection for His Highness and is unwilling to change it easily. If you are moved, you must have His Majesty's approval. Otherwise, wouldn't it be a crime of deceiving the emperor?"

She hoped that Mrs. Cui would be smarter and focus on the key points: she is not willing to change easily, but it is not impossible to change; it is necessary to ask His Majesty to agree, this matter is witnessed by the emperor, and the emperor will not let go, so he promised 110,000, Yu Xie Wuzheng's reputation and future are not good either.

"Yes!" Mrs. Cui answered cautiously, hesitated for a while, and said, "Madam, in fact, my wife thinks that the son-in-law should also want an heir. Two days ago, my wife's sister-in-law took her nephew to see my wife. The son-in-law went to the mansion to find his husband to talk to. The nephew of the minister's wife was young, only three or two years old. He accidentally bumped into the son-in-law while playing in the corridor. The son-in-law hugged him for a long time before handing him to the wet nurse reluctantly. The wife's sister-in-law Said, if His Royal Highness has a son with the son-in-law, the son-in-law must be a loving father."

Yun Fenghuang thought to himself, how many men don't expect a son-in-law these days?

Not to mention that if it wasn't for Sui'an who couldn't give birth, he would be an heir with royal blood!

"My sister-in-law is careful." She nodded slightly, and did not continue the topic, but asked about the situation of the Cui family, "Your nephew is about the same age as my fifteenth year... What are the plans at home?" ?"

Cui Shi was pleasantly surprised when she heard the words, and heard that the imperial concubine was looking for a companion for the fifteenth prince in advance, so she hurriedly answered, but didn't say anything more about it.

After she left, Yun Fenghuang thought about it for a while, and the next day he found an excuse to thank Wu Zheng for entering the palace, and talked about it: "Now that there are no outsiders here, I will bluntly say: If brother twenty-one really expects Pan Zixi, as long as His Highness is willing to seek His Majesty's request for this, I think His Majesty will not have the heart to sit and watch His Highness's knees be empty."

In fact, Chunjia didn't have the idea of ​​cutting off children and grandchildren just because Suian couldn't bear children from the very beginning.

It was Xie Wuzheng who deliberately set up an affectionate persona in his rage, so as to become famous.

From the emperor's point of view, the most important thing is to ensure that the three Xiaozong's flesh and blood are treated with courtesy.

This guarantee means that in the eyes of the world, they are treated with courtesy.

As for whether the three golden branches and jade leaves are actually living a good life, in Chunjia's opinion, whether it is appropriate or not, that is secondary.

So don't say that Sui'an is just asking for an heir, if she loses her head and insists on taking a concubine for the son-in-law to continue the heir, Chunjia's persuasion is fruitless, and she will definitely agree.

At the beginning, Xie Wuzheng made the oath to the emperor, so the emperor let go, and he and the eldest princess can continue the incense through adoption and other methods like ordinary childless couples.

"Sister-in-law Shiba said this?" Xie Wuzheng smiled slightly after hearing the words, but said, "The other day I had something to discuss with Brother Shiba, and I met Mrs. Cui in the mansion, and saw that he was cute and mischievous. So after hugging for a while, I turned around and saw that the 18th sister-in-law and sister-in-law all had different expressions. I guessed that they were sympathetic to Chen. But the empress should not misunderstand, the minister is still young, and so is His Highness. Given time, there may not be no hope. I would like to offend my empress. When my empress first entered the palace, she doted on the special room for several years. Wasn't it considered that the fate of children was low? But now there is His Royal Highness King Jin? I think the words of the imperial physician may not be accurate. "

Yun Fenghuang pondered and said: "But I heard that His Highness seems to mind quite a bit? Or, Brother 21, why not adopt a daughter from the big house first, to appease you?"

Since Xie Wuzheng has hope in case of eventuality, it is only natural for him to be a stepchild.

After all, the adoptive heir at this moment has the same status as the parent and child in terms of etiquette. It is true that Xie Wuzheng and his wife are still young, if they call their nephew to be the heir at this time, and they give birth to their own son after a few years, this...the biological flesh and blood that came so easily will lose the status of the eldest son, and become parents How can you bear it?

At that time, the heir can't be killed.

But embarrassing.

But the daughter is fine.

Moreover, Yun Fenghuang said, "I also heard that there is a saying in the market that couples adopt one or two children after getting married for a long time to attract their own flesh and blood. It is rumored that many people use this method to make their children and grandchildren The house is full. There are not many people left and right in the Princess Palace. If His Royal Highness really minds, Brother Twenty-One may wish to consider which niece of the eldest room is innocent and cute, who can match His Highness's eyes."

The voice lowered, "Otherwise, listening to the meaning behind the words of the eighteenth sister-in-law, His Highness is often depressed at the moment. If it continues like this and cannot be dispatched, what should I do if I fall ill in the future?"

Your current status as a son-in-law lies entirely in Sui'an, and Sui'an's mother-in-law is fine. Didn't your own father, Xiaozong, die of depression at a young age?

If this His Highness really got into the horns of a dead man, because of this, he had a heart attack and died young, then not only you, but also the entire Xie family will suffer a lot!

After all, Xie Wuzheng and his wife have nothing under their knees. If Suian is gone, even if Xie Wuzheng announces that he will never marry again, will his relationship with the royal family not weaken?

Hearing this, Xie Wuzheng, who didn't think so at first, couldn't help being awe-inspiring, pondered for a moment, and said slowly: "Your Majesty said...the minister will go back and have an open and honest talk with His Highness, if His Highness really wants an heir, I will try to do one or two. .”

Then within two days, Yun Fenghuang listened to Chen Jing's report, saying that Xie Wuzheng decided to send someone to take a pair of twin nieces from Xie's second room to the eldest princess in order to prevent Princess Sui'an from overthinking because of the emptiness below her knees. Mansion, Cheng Huan Suian in front of.

"How could it be the child of the second room?" Yun Fenghuang was a little confused about the couple's operation.

Before, Sui'an liked Sifang's Xie Zhi, and it could be understood that this golden branch and jade leaf also intended to get closer to Yunfenghuang, and specially chose Yunfenghuang's nephew.

Now Xie Wuzheng has picked the second bedroom... When she was at home, she had never heard that Xie Wuzheng had any friendship with the second bedroom!

"It is said that the two Miss Xie were born with beautiful makeup, and they are so similar that even their biological parents are hard to tell apart." Chen Jing guessed, "Maybe it is for this reason that they can win His Highness's love even more."

After all, things are rare and precious, and beautiful twins are more pitiful than a little girl alone.

Yun Fenghuang pondered that Xie Wuzheng's original intention was to hope that Sui'an would be happier, don't always be overwhelmed, no matter how well-behaved two children are, there must be more things to worry about than one child. Perhaps it was because he felt that bringing a pair of twins by his side would make Sui'an more sad. This is also a good idea.

There are many descendants of the Xie family. There are dozens of people in her generation, and even more in the next generation.

So she was not very clear about the twins, so she asked about the situation.

Chen Jing said: "She is a concubine daughter of the second room. I heard that her biological mother passed away due to dystocia, and she was raised by her aunt since she was a child. Because she was born cute, she has always been raised as a concubine... This year is three years old. Earlier, His Highness was in the Xie Mansion. When I was a little while, I liked them too. It's just that I didn't like the young master as much as I did."

Yun Fenghuang had some impression of Xie Zhong, but it was relatively weak.

Because when she left Beidi that year, the child was still in her infancy. She remembered that she was an extremely difficult child and was noisy all day long. At that time, the Jiang family joked with everyone who came over, saying that after waiting for a few years, they might be the master who went to the house again.

However, although such a child is naughty, it is also cute in the eyes of some elders.

Suian probably likes this, right?

However, since Xie Wuzheng had no intention, Yun Fenghuang also didn't want to facilitate this matter.

Hearing the words, he smiled and said: "That's fine, Your Highness is young and has a noble status. In fact, there is no need to embarrass yourself for some trivial matters."

Thinking about it, I asked again, "Just taking the children to live in the eldest princess's mansion? Didn't you mention the adoption?"

"No." Chen Jing said in a low voice, "Looking at the appearance of the son-in-law, the maidservants seem to have no such intentions. They only said that His Highness likes the two Miss Xie, and wants to follow the example of the empress, and take the niece and daughter to enjoy family happiness."

Yun Fenghuang nodded and didn't say anything, the two nieces from concubines are nothing more than, in Xie's house, no matter how they are treated as concubine daughters, how can living in the eldest princess's mansion reach the sky in one step?

Even if he doesn't succeed at the Eldest Princess' knee, the future is extremely bright.

In particular, the eldest princess is empty under her knees, so she can't be raised as a daughter.

In the future, even if Xie Wuzheng and his wife have their own flesh and blood, the eldest princess's mansion will not lack such three melons and two dates, and they will have to arrange their future; daughter's.

She didn't worry about it anymore, she just said: "I hope His Highness can always be happy in the future."

When Chunjia came over, she also asked about this matter, and Yun Fenghuang said directly that it was because of Sui'an's troubles, and the son-in-law was afraid that she would get sick, so he brought his niece and daughter over to relieve her boredom.

In the end, he angered the emperor: "What? Your Majesty thinks that the son-in-law only cares about his own nephews and doesn't pay much attention to his wife's juniors? But although Your Majesty has many heirs, who is it appropriate to ask the Eldest Princess?"

Chunjia laughed and said, "Where did you think? I just asked casually after hearing what someone said."

After a pause, he said slowly, "Actually, the matter between the two of them, my mother-in-law also euphemistically mentioned it to me earlier, and it's really not a problem that Suan's knees are always empty... If Xie Wuzheng wants to have a step-nephew , it’s all right.”

Yun Fenghuang was not surprised by the emperor's resignation, so he sighed: "I also know that His Majesty is not an unreasonable person. But this elder brother is very stubborn! Since he is determined to guard His Highness for the rest of his life, it is difficult to change his mind. ...The two children this time are only here as nieces, but they are not adopted. If the niece is like this, do you think he will agree to adopt a nephew?"
