After rebirth, I made the princes cry
Chapter 39 The “safest” woman
Whenever a beloved person enters the palace, a small war without smoke will start in the inner court.
Who will inherit the favor first, who will be promoted first, who will successfully compete for the position of the ninth concubine, and even who will get pregnant first... etc. are all the focus of discussion. Among this year's lovers, the most eye-catching one is Of course, it's Zhang's daughter and Yingshu. One of them lives in Xianyang Palace and the other lives in Zhaoyang Palace. It seems that one has the queen as a backer and the other is Madam Xie's confidant. It should be very interesting to fight for them.
After the first confrontation, many Liangren knew something was wrong. Zhang Liangren was not very smart, but Wang Liangren was very tough both in terms of strength and temperament.
Of course Mrs. Xie knew the thoughts of these onlookers in the palace. After she took Yingshu back to Zhaoyang Palace, she laughed at Zhang's daughter for a while: "I thought that after living in Xianyang Palace, the queen would really support her. Zhang Ren doesn’t know how to train his daughter, her brain must be filled with idiots! Jiangdong Zhang’s legitimate daughter will be favored sooner or later after entering the palace. The queen keeps her in Xianyang Palace to supervise her every move. Just watch. We don’t have to worry about anything, the queen can first put an end to Zhang’s desire to fight for the concubine position.”
"My son has always been puzzled. When His Majesty ascended the throne, Jiangdong Zhang even refused the position of his wife. He said that only Zhang's daughter-in-law would be married to the royal family. Why is it just a concubine now? Are you fighting for sending your legitimate daughter into the palace?"
"It's not surprising that you don't know about the civil strife in the Zhang family in Jiangdong." Mrs. Xie answered knowing everything: "Zhang's grandfather Zhang Chu was the head of the clan, but his eldest son, Zhang's uncle Zhang Jiutong, was defeated in the previous war. , although he was not held accountable, who made Zhang Chu's younger brother Zhang Bao always covet the position of the head of the clan and plan to replace his elder brother? Zhang Bao kept jumping up and down, and then Zhang Chu made the move to send a granddaughter into the family. Palace, after all, if the Zhang family wins the concubine position, or even gives birth to a prince, and has the royal family to back him up, no matter how much Zhang Bao acts, Jiangdong Zhang’s people will not follow Zhang Bao to cause chaos."
Yingshu smiled and said nothing.
"Why are you laughing?" Mrs. Xie asked, but she was also laughing.
"What a stupid move." Ying Shu couldn't take it seriously: "The eldest son suffered a defeat. This setback can only be recovered on the battlefield. Do you think that sending a granddaughter into the palace can stabilize the position of the patriarch? Imperial power If it is really so powerful, Zhang Jiutong's head may have been lost long ago, and the Zhang family will be overthrown by the Yi tribe. Does it matter who is the head of the clan?"
"You are right." Mrs. Born to Zhang Bao's concubine, Zhang Bao was of course very angry, so he asked his son to take Zhang Cu's younger sister-in-law as a concubine. By the way, it was Zhang's grandmother whose maiden name was Taoyao. My half-sister."
Yingshu:......
She had really never heard of the chaos inside Jiang Dongzhang.
"Today's aristocratic families are full of losers. Just like your second aunt Yao, didn't she give her niece to Gu Nanjiang as a concubine? She tried to get along with Jiang Donggu in this way. Wouldn't it be a slap in the face if you send it to your door?"
Yingshu knew about this confusing matter about Yao's behavior, but Mrs. Xie thought that Yingshu didn't know, because although it was Jiangdu Yao's family scandal, why did Jiangdu Yao and King Langyi be in-laws? If this matter was revealed, , King Langyi will also feel that his face is dull.
Mrs. Xie told Yingshu in detail: "Even if you have heard about this matter, I'm afraid you don't know the details. You really think that the daughter of the Yao family who is a concubine in Gumen is an adopted daughter. There is only one name of the daughter of the Yao family." It's just a share, it's actually a fig leaf. Let me tell you the truth, Yao Ji, who was taken as a concubine by Gu Nanjiang, is actually the legitimate daughter of Yao from Jiangdu. Your second aunt has a second brother who broke his brain when he was a child and recovered. Although Hou looks like an ordinary person, she is actually very slow. Yao Ji is his legitimate daughter, not an adopted daughter."
In her previous life, when Yingshu was in the boudoir, she really didn't know the details of this matter. She had never dealt with the Yao girls. Even the two Yao girls she had met were both the legitimate daughters of Wang Qing'e's uncle. Regarding Wang Qing'e's second uncle, Ying Shu only knew that he had a son and a daughter, whom she had never met. However, later Ying Shu married Pei Yu, and Gu Nanjiang was Penglai Jun's nephew. Ying Shu came from Penglai Jun. I only learned this secret from my mouth.
At this time, she listened quietly to Mrs. Xie: "Although Gu Nanjiang is a talented man, he has a habit that is highly criticized. He only loves virgins. If a woman loses her virginity, he will stay away from her. Because of this Gu Gong often punishes this descendant for his bad habits, but Gu Nanjiang just can't get rid of this problem, let's take care of Gu Nanjiang, who never forces others, and the wife he married also has problems. "
Yingshu waited and then realized that she should be surprised: "Is Madam talking about Qi Shaojun? What... shortcomings does she have?"
"Suffering from a serious disease." Mrs. Xie said: "The exact cause of the disease is unknown, but when the daughter of the Qi family got hairpins, her relatives refused to propose marriage, saying that... they asked an official matchmaker to arrange the marriage of their legitimate daughter."
"This is so unconscionable."
"Therefore, the Qi family's daughter must be suffering from a serious disease, and it can no longer be concealed. The Qi family did not dare to betroth her to a son of the family, and they had no choice but to ask the official matchmaker to arrange a marriage. It just so happened that Gu Gong was also worried about Gu Nanjiang's marriage. , even though he knew that Qi's daughter was suffering from a serious disease, anyway... Gu Nanjiang would definitely neglect his wife. The two families hit it off immediately, and no one harmed the other. Although Gu Nanjiang took in many concubines, he never treated him harshly. His first wife, but Gu Nan Jiangna's concubine, is either a commoner woman or a brothel geisha. Although these women will be lonely for half their lives after entering the Gu family, they will have no worries about food and clothing and no resentment in their hearts.
Your second aunt's family, Jiangdu Yao, is a middle-class family after all. After hearing about Gu Nanjiang's hobby, he took the initiative to go to the Gu family and offered to send his "adopted daughter" as Gu Nanjiang's concubine. How could Mr. Gu be fooled? He didn't agree at first. However, the Yao family forced her niece to find Gu Nanjiang and recommend herself as a pillow. The little Yao family was also looking for life and death. Gu Nanjiang saw that she was pitiful, so he agreed to take her as his concubine. "
"No wonder Lord Penglai doesn't want to see my second aunt." Yingshu said.
She also knew what happened next. Not long after, Mrs. Qi died of a vicious illness. Her illness was nothing unspeakable. In fact, it was just stridor and paralysis of the heart. She was so weak that she had no hope of having children. It was said that she could not even have children. Walking too much will lead to danger. Doctors diagnosed the disease and said it was best not to even have sex.
Even with such maintenance, he died of illness in his early twenties.
Among Gu Nanjiang's many concubines, only one was lucky enough to get pregnant, and the child was a daughter, who was recorded in the name of the Qi family. However, the Qi family was unable to educate her, and only Yao Ji, although she was a concubine, could read and write. She was responsible for the upbringing of the girl. Unlike her aunt Yao, who was selfish and narrow-minded, Yao Ji did such a shameful thing as recommending herself to die on the mat. She was forced by her uncle and aunt. Her biological father was already mentally retarded. His biological mother was cowardly, so Xiao Yao had no one to rely on in her parents' family and had no choice but to be bullied.
But Xiao Yao was a virtuous woman. She was later supported by Gu Nanjiang, who was later appointed as an envoy by Sikong Beichen and made great achievements. Xiao Yao was also granted a royal title.
Gu Nanjiang has always been childless, and there have always been criticisms about his hobbies, but his talents are undisputed. Yingshu even thinks that his character is quite good, because he has many difficult and dangerous missions, and other officials have resisted. However, Nanjiang dared to take responsibility. When the country was in crisis, he was always fearless in the face of danger and never took credit for himself.
Yingshu met Xiao Yao later. Xiao Yao was already the Lord of Guangling at that time. Wang Qing'e was already a skeleton. One of the two cousins who had bullied Xiao Yao was divorced and the other died of illness. Ying Shu's second aunt Yao was because of He married a strong daughter-in-law and was almost dying of anger, but Xiao Yao still had graceful eyes and a rosy complexion.
"The person I am most grateful to in the world is Lu Nujun, because it was Lu Nujun who spoke out to defend me back then. Although Penglai Jun hated my uncle and aunt, he never despised me. It was precisely because of Penglai Jun's protection. The elders surnamed Gu treated me extremely kindly, but my life in the Gu family was completely different from that in the boudoir."
"The prince has no fault in the first place."
"Cowardice is also a fault, but I didn't understand it at the time." Xiao Yao smiled.
Yingshu actually didn't quite understand why she could let go: "Did you really never complain to Duke Guangling?"
"Actually, there is no difference between me and the concubines at home. Because we know my husband and are lucky enough to be admitted to the Gu family, we can take root in the land and no longer have to worry about being homeless. Your Highness, I have never been on Jiangdu Yao's genealogy. I Since I was born, my so-called elders have decided to give me to others as a concubine. I can only be an 'adopted daughter'. But if I meet someone other than my husband, what will happen to me? So I am grateful. My husband, it is he who has protected me from worries about food and clothing, and although I am a concubine, I have never suffered the pain of being a concubine."
Xiao Yao also said at the time: "Even compared to Wang Siniang, I am much luckier, right?"
A contented person will often have a sense of happiness. Xiao Yao once taught Ying Shu a lesson.
But Yingshu could not persuade Mrs. Xie with Xiao Yao's story now. She took a sip of wine and narrowed her eyes happily.
"This wine was sent by Concubine Jian." Mrs. Xie also took a sip of wine: "She is good at making wine, but she doesn't give wine away as a favor. I know that her son is the prince's arm. It's rare that she dares to send wine here. Zhaoyang Palace is not afraid of me slandering her and poisoning her."
Yingshu:......
"How could my aunt do such a dirty trick?"
"It's not that I don't know how to use it, but I'm not that stupid." Mrs. Xie smiled: "Sikong Yuehu was not involved in the dispute over the throne. He helped the prince simply because His Majesty still wanted to consolidate the throne. In fact, Concubine Jian She despises Queen Yu in her heart, but she has tried her best to do her duty. Like today, Queen Yu is pretending to be confused and is almost not offended. Why does Jian Bin come forward? Who can't stand by and watch, but She did not forget to remind Queen Yu not to forget the majesty of the master of the harem.
For this reason, I like Jian Bin, and Jian Bin can also see that I like her, so she dares to send her home-brewed wine, not to please me, but because in the deep palace, sometimes someone who can speak is needed. It's not too late to break up the friendship when the speculative friends become enemies. "
Mrs. Xie looked at Ying Shu: "I can't touch Concubine Jian, because Your Majesty must protect her. Your Majesty protects her not because you love her too much, but because Your Majesty values her son, because no matter who Your Majesty chooses to be the crown prince in the end, Sikong Yuehu will always protect her." He will be the crown prince’s helping hand.”
