After rebirth, I made the princes cry

Sikong Tong did not very much doubt that Ying Shu was a "reborn person", but because of what the eunuch prayed for, he always wanted to determine the authenticity, especially how much was true and what was false, so for this reason He even somewhat expected Yingshu to be a "reborn person", so he asked Mr. Baichuan to test her. Naturally, because of Mr. Baichuan's special status as the only astrologer, the difficulty of testing was greatly reduced.

"She should not be a reborn person." Baichuan Jun gave a definite answer: "But, her cousin who was honest about it once told her that she was a reborn person. She thought Wang Siniang was talking nonsense. This is also true. Within reason.”

"Jun Qing has a unique eye for recognizing people. In your opinion, how does this girl Di Xiu fare?"

"She is very smart and courageous. To tell the truth, it is not weird for His Royal Highness to be obsessed with her."

"If you put aside your family background, do you think Emperor Xiu is more suitable to be the crown princess?"

"I can't say that." Bai Chuanjun smiled: "Lu Sanniang's temperament is not outstanding, but she is gentle and elegant, and she admires the prince very much. It is conceivable that she will think about the prince in everything in the future. In fact, Lu Sanniang is indeed the first choice for mothers in the world. The only unsuitable thing is that in the current troubled times, the imperial power is forced to be restrained by important ministers. Lu Sanniang is more than virtuous but not decisive enough. She may be in trouble in the chaos of the imperial court. Suffering from calculations, one has more ambition than strength."

This means that whether Lu Sanniang can settle the harem dispute depends to some extent on the support and assistance of the prince.

There is no perfect marriage in the world. Sikong Tong knew this truth, but he did not continue to struggle with the selection of the crown prince. Lord Baichuan said: "Today I made my own decision and 'threatened' Emperor Xiu... I will follow your majesty. I asked her to find a way to protect Xu Cairen's thoroughness, but it wasn't really to test her. Didn't His Majesty intend for her to escape from Zhaoyang Palace? I just wanted to create an opportunity."

Bai Chuanjun's self-assertion is not an unusual incident. Sikong Tong has actually been used to it for a long time, but this time he has some reservations: "Just ask Jiang Shangyi to pay attention to Xu Cairen's matter."

"If Jiang Shangyi had the queen's trust, Concubine Liu Shu would not be so impatient today."

This was the end of the matter, but Sikong Tong coughed several times in embarrassment and helplessly held his forehead: "The queen has always been small."

"It's not a big problem to be underappreciated. Some people are hurt by being underappreciated, and some people are hurt by being underappreciated. The queen's biggest problem is that she doesn't have a kind heart. She is domineering towards the nobles of her birth. The overbearing woman is indignant, but she also treats the more vulnerable people as nothing, like Xu Cairen. In the eyes of the queen, she became a dead pawn for the prince. It is Xu Cairen's luck."

"Jun Qing, I know you have always been prejudiced against the Queen..."

"This is not a prejudice, this is true knowledge."

"But if I had established another queen at that time, would you dare to say that among the three ladies Xie, Zheng, and He, no matter which one of them ascended to the throne, would it really be possible to prevent innocent people from suffering unreasonable disasters? Maybe the queen's court There are more innocent souls and bones than there are now. Although Mrs. Yu is also unkind, she is at least more scrupulous. She dare not and cannot be too arrogant."

"Courage and timidity have nothing to do with family background." Bai Chuanjun smiled: "And she is now a queen."

-

As a queen, Yu was extremely happy at this time. She told Xu Cairen: "I always thought Liang Siniang was stupid. Although her family background is not as good as the Eight Surnames, compared with the Jian family, she is still considered to have a strong foundation." The family is so young, because of Si Lang's appearance, she can actually bend her back in front of Concubine Jian, even if she is a woman. If she is a son, she may be punished much. I didn't expect that she was absurd as a child, but she still had wisdom. Quality, just not precocious."

Xu Cairen is a simple-minded person who has always only said yes, and now he still only says yes.

But this did not affect Queen Yu's desire to talk.

"Of course, Shiro is also a good boy, otherwise he wouldn't have taken Chen'er's place on the battlefield. Jian Bin respects me more than the third lady. But, Jian Bin talks too much and her ideas are too right. After all, She believes that she comes from a noble family and always feels that she is more capable than me. Oh, does she think I really don’t know how to take charge of the harem? I’m just a fool. Don’t talk about me and her. We are only sons. Da Lang is really not as capable as Shi Lang. Your Majesty. Can Dalang be granted the title of crown prince? As the saying goes, running a big country is like cooking small dishes. If the prince is the chef, Shiro is just a piece of firewood. As a peasant woman who found the firewood, Jian Bin, no matter how she shows off, the firewood she offers can Incarnate as a human?"

Xu Cairen didn't understand the "secret meaning" of the Queen's words, so he only echoed: "Although His Highness is just firewood, he is still better than the useless prince."

"You don't have to talk, so you don't have to talk." Queen Yu said with a smile: "There are many women in the palace with better family backgrounds than me, but what will happen to them in the end? They can't take away my post, so in the end they will just watch. Your Majesty has made my son the crown prince. Putting aside the difference between wives and concubines, even if they think they are more talented, beautiful, and knowledgeable than me, how many people can they surround themselves with? Don't mention it, Mrs. Liu knew that I was Regarding behavior, doesn’t she still regard me as a god? Who else can win over someone like Liu besides me? "

Empress Yu continued to show off endlessly: "The prince's strategy has been greatly underestimated by self-righteous people like them. Even Concubine Jian has determined that the prince is far less capable than her son. I know if there is any Young palace people secretly praise Concubine Jian for her brilliance and beauty. Do you think she really has no ambition? As long as a person is a person, especially a woman who enters the palace, fundamentally speaking, there is no one who is not motivated.

But it depends on whether your Majesty will be swayed by their intrigues. Your Majesty, what matters most is his own reputation, so he will definitely not abandon my poor wife. As for Concubine Jian, her natal family is nothing more than She is a middle-class family that relies on Jiangdong Gu Li. Her son is neither an elder nor a legitimate son, so she can only pretend to have no ambitions. She is not willing to be completely obedient to me. In the end, she still looks down on my family background. This This is where she is stupid. Since she wants her son to enjoy the glory and wealth next to the prince, what qualifications does she have to show off her family background in front of me. "

Xu Cairen didn't speak. She knew that her brain was really not strong enough. She couldn't even say a flattering word to the point. The reason why she was chosen to serve the Queen in the Xianyang Palace was still unclear to her until now, but She knew that the reason why she was lucky enough to be favored was precisely because of her stupid and stupid character who could only obey the queen's words.

She doesn't have many ambitions. Her only wish is that after being promoted to the rank of a concubine, she can get more benefits for her family outside the palace. If her family members live a more stable life in the palace, they will miss her. Even if she never sees her family again until she dies, Xu Cairen still hopes that her family will always talk about her, think about her, and pray for her.

The emperor has so many concubines, it is impossible for someone like her to really expect the emperor's care. Her Highness the Queen probably will not regard her as an indispensable person, but even if she is so humble, she does not want to be treated like this. The world ignores and forgets.

The false pregnancy was the empress's idea, but she was able to be promoted to a talented person because of it. This was her biggest wish in this life, and she was very satisfied now.

But Xu Cairen also has people he envies, like the palace maid of Wangchuan Pavilion who stayed with Jian Concubine when she was young. She had the opportunity to learn to read and could actually compose poems. Her promotion path should be to be a female official, and she looked inferior to the world. Women are noble, but for some reason, Xu Cairen envied her.

Later, she said that occasionally she would tease Empress Jian. Not only was Empress Jian not annoyed, she also liked her narrow-minded temperament.

Xianyang Palace and Wangchuan Pavilion are so different. In Xianyang Palace, the maids who secretly surrendered to others acted wildly and the Queen never restrained them. However, the Queen had very strict restraints on her cronies. They had to be cautious around the Queen. Yes, you must obey everything.

Xu Cairen's thoughts were scattered, and all he could think about was Wangchuan Pavilion.

It was still calm in Wangchuan Pavilion.

No one from the palace came to comfort Concubine Jian, and Concubine Jian didn't seem to need anyone's comfort at all. Until early the next morning, the fourth prince took the initiative to come to Wangchuan Pavilion to pay a visit to Concubine Jian. When he was there, it seemed that Concubine Jian was still as usual, not at all. Sad look.

Concubine Jian did not feel depressed. She even asked her son: "Yesterday, His Majesty asked you to stay, which must have comforted you."

"Father, fight for me." Sikong Yuehu's face was radiant, and he didn't look like someone who had suffered a blow.

"You are still promising. You received an exaggerated evaluation in public, but this time you didn't respond sarcastically."

"Not everyone is worthy of my fighting back."

"Hey, it sounds like I'm really burning in my heart."

"The son is worried about his mother, afraid that her mother will worry about his son's marriage."

"I'm not worried." Concubine Jian drank tea and raised her radiant cheek: "You are a son-in-law, and you are a son-in-law with great ambitions. You, your thoughts are not focused on falling in love with a man and a woman. , your future wives and concubines will be ignored by you, but now that your marriage is decided, I have to worry about it, for fear that they will call me at Wangchuan Pavilion to seek justice.

I'm worried about Liu Jing. She is a girl. How many women live for the word "love" in their lives. I worry about how wronged she will be if her husband-in-law is like you in the future. "

Sikong Yuehu felt that after being disliked by Liang Siniang, he was also disliked by his mother-in-law.

In the Zhaoyang Palace, Mrs. Xie was also discussing with Yingshu: "Liang Siniang is really evil. A person with such a temperament would not be a good concubine, but she was willing to go to the Prince's Mansion to be a concubine. Yes, the Crown Prince. Ji Ao is very different from ordinary concubines. When Sikong Beichen ascends the throne, Liang will also get the rank of a concubine, but that will also require Sikong Beichen to ascend the throne. Liang Siniang is so optimistic that the throne will not change hands.

Putting aside these interests, Liang Siniang is not a person who wants to be subordinate to others at all. This matter is too weird. Emperor Xiu, please think about it for me, is this the prince's plan? He won over Fan Yanglu, a wife of the family. Not enough, Cai Liang was even wanted. "

Yingshu couldn't tell what Liang Siniang's mentality was, but she was sure that Sikong Beichen didn't pay much attention to Cai Liang.

Shangcailiang is a family selected and supported by the emperor. This is conditional. First of all, Shangcailiang must have the value of supporting the royal family. In addition, because this family cannot really win the attention of the powerful, they will value the emperor's gift to them. The timing, so for Shang Cailiang, it is not that important whether his daughter marries the fourth prince or is a high-ranking prince. Anyway, they are dedicated to the royal family.

Similarly, in Sikong Beichen's view, going to Cailiang was simply not worth the risk of offending Fan Yang and the effort to win over him at this moment.

In his previous life, Shang Cailiang was raised, so Sikong Beichen would mind that Sikong Yuehu had such a powerful wife. However, Sikong Beichen only made some small plans, which caused Shang Cailiang and Sikong Yuehu to turn against each other. , and then became more and more loyal to the emperor Sikong Beichen.

There is no need to pay the price for things that can be obtained easily.

Sikong Yuehu has always been a "tool" that Sikong Beichen could not completely give up, so Sikong Beichen had no choice but to use conspiracy and tricks to kill Liang. But at yesterday's banquet, Liang Siniang embarrassed Sikong Yuehu in public, showing her empathy for Sikong Beichen. With Beichen's suspicious temperament, how could he believe that Sikong Yuehu didn't have any grudge against him?

This goes against Sikong Beichen's plan.

Yingshu was very sure that the accident would not happen because of Sikong Beichen.
