Princess [rebirth]

Mrs. Qingping County sent a maid to stand by the Chuihua Gate. As soon as she saw that Alang had returned to the house, she rushed to report.But she herself went to the kitchen and made a bowl of Zhuo Lang's favorite lotus seed soup with her own hands, hoping to please him.

Not long after, the servant girl came to report in a hurry, saying that Alang had returned.Upon hearing this, Mrs. Qingping County hurried back to her room and changed into clean clothes, then took her mother-in-law with lotus seed soup and headed towards the outer study in the front yard.

When they arrived at the gate of Qinghui Garden, the young servants guarding both sides saw her, and hurriedly saluted her, "I have seen Madam."

"Well, I have something to see Zhuo Lang, please inform me." Madam Qingpingjun nodded coldly and said.

"No." One of the servants immediately entered the garden and sent a message for Mrs. Qingping County.

After a while, Zhuo Rongyong's long follower followed the young man to the gate of the courtyard.

"Madam, please come with the younger one." Zhuo Rongyong's entourage respectfully saluted and greeted, and then led Mrs. Qingpingjun and her party to the door of the study.

Mrs. Qingping County knew Zhuo Rongyong's rules, and asked the women to stand outside the door to wait. She personally carried the tray with lotus seed soup, and followed the long attendant into the study.

Zhuo Rongyong's study room is very large, divided into an outer room and an inner room. The inner and outer rooms are separated by a curtain. There are several large bookcases piled up by the left wall of the outer room. The cabinets are full of books. There is a window on the right side of the rosewood desk, and a couch under the window.

A tall table stood beside the couch, and on the table was an incense burner, and thin smoke was wafting from the mouth of the incense burner.

At this time, Zhuo Rongyong was sitting behind the desk, he raised his head when he heard the sound, and looked directly at his wife with sharp eyes.

"Wan Niang, do you need me?" Zhuo Rongyong put down the pen in his hand, and the young servant who was waiting at the side immediately brought a basin of clear water to wash his hands.

"It's not a big deal. It's just that my concubine sees that you are busy with business recently, and I'm afraid that you will be unwell, so I boiled a bowl of lotus seed soup. I hope Zhuorang will not dislike it." Mrs. Qingping County said gently, and put the tray on the table. On the side table.

Then she personally scooped some of the lotus seed soup in the cup into a small bowl, blew it cool carefully, and brought it to Zhuo Rongyong.When Zhuo Rongyong was scooping up the soup, he dismissed all the servants who were waiting in the study.

He took the lotus seed soup that his wife scooped up for him, and after taking a sip, he said lightly, "Sit down."

Mrs. Qingpingjun walked to the side couch gracefully, straightened her skirt, and sat down meticulously.

"Zhuo Lang, the second sister had already passed the ceremony last month, I wonder what Zhuo Lang has planned for the second sister?" Mrs. Qingping County boldly raised a question when she saw that her husband's expression was not bad.

As soon as she finished speaking, Zhuo Rongyong's hands stopped, her eyelids twitched, and her hands hidden in her sleeves couldn't help but clenched tightly.

Zhuo Rongyong put down the spoon, slowly picked up the handkerchief on the side, wiped his mouth, and then glanced at Mrs. Qingping County, "Second sister has no rules, wait until she learns all the rules."

When Mrs. Qingping heard this, she almost turned away, she trembled her lips and said, "Why did Zhuo Lang say that? The second sister's rules are taught by my concubine who has taught your lord, how can there be no rules? "

"The incident she caused in the East Palace has already spread throughout the harem, so you still have the face to tell me that she has rules?!" Zhuo Rongyong lowered his face and said in a cold voice.

The lady of Qingping County wanted to hurt Zhuo Jingfan at this moment, she endured the anger in her heart, and made a sad and wronged look, "Zhuo Lang, this matter... this fact is something that the Crown Princess made a lot of fuss about, I know, It is because the Crown Princess has resentment towards the concubine in her heart that she ruined the reputation of the second sister..."

"Shut up! Is it possible for you and me to criticize the Crown Princess?" Zhuo Rongyong interrupted her crying with an angry shout, and stared coldly at his wife who was acting more and more chaotically.

Mrs. Qingping County was stunned by his scolding, she was married to the Zhuo family for more than ten years, this was the first time she was treated like this by Zhuo Rongyong, and she couldn't recover for a while.

Looking at his wife in front of him, Zhuo Rongyong felt a little disappointment in his heart. At first he chose Mrs. Qingping County as his continuation because she was the daughter of the Jiangling Xiao family. The Jiangling Xiao family is a century-old family. Zhongshuling, a servant and many elders.

At that time, Zhuo Rongyong was the doctor of the Right Adviser, although he was an official of the fourth rank, but his goal was the position of Zhongshu Ling, so he needed a capable wife and family to help him revive the Zhuo family.

In fact, the Zhuo family was originally one of the nine great aristocratic families in Kyoto, and had produced many high-ranking officials, but a few generations ago, they accidentally stood on the wrong team and offended the last prince who was in charge at that time.

Because of that mistake, the Zhuo family was almost wiped out of the nine clans. Fortunately, the sage was generous, but he disliked the Zhuo family and no longer used the Zhuo family.It wasn't until the generation of Zhuo Rongyong's great-grandfather that he was reused by the sages because of his achievements in Conglong.

However, Zhuo Rongyong's grandfather and father were not capable, and Zhuo Rongyong's generation did not produce another official under the fourth rank.Because of this, Zhuo Rongyong chose Jiangling Xiao's daughter after his first wife died of illness.Who knew that after she got married, she found out that the daughter of the Xiao family in Jiangling was nothing more than that.

Before he was promoted to Zhongshuling, although he did not take care of Xiao Wanniang, he respected and loved Xiao Wanniang very much. He even brought up his first wife and son-in-law under her knees, and he never intervened.

It wasn't until the matter of choosing a concubine for the crown prince two years ago that he really saw Xiao Wanniang's stupidity.

His Royal Highness was poisoned when he was young, and after waking up he became stupid, and his body deteriorated every year. Later, the eminent monk of Baima Temple did a divination for His Royal Highness, and calculated a horoscope, saying that regardless of gender, As long as the horoscope matches, she is the crown princess, and she is the lucky star of His Royal Highness, who can help His Highness avoid disasters.

As soon as the sage heard it, he immediately sent someone to inquire, and he must find out the person who matches the horoscope.

There are so many people with the same horoscope in the world. It is easy to find the one who matches the calculations of the eminent monks, but it is somewhat difficult to get the other party to be willing.Although marrying into the royal family is a great grace of the emperor, a blessing that ordinary people can't even ask for, the premise is that His Highness the Crown Prince is not a fool.

Therefore, as soon as the news came out, many families who matched their horoscopes immediately got engaged, fearing that they would be taken into the palace and then be chosen by the sage to marry the Crown Prince.

Of course, there are also those who are greedy for glory and wealth, regardless of whether His Highness the Crown Prince is stupid or not, they will get along even if their heads are sharpened, and they will send their own daughters or sons to the palace.

Among them, Zhuo Dalang, who lived in the doctor's mansion on the right, was led by his stepmother to enter the palace as a candidate.

It was Zhuo Rongyong's most important moment in the officialdom, so he acquiesced in Xiao Wanniang's move to send Zhuo Jingfan to the palace. It is not the material that can support the Zhuo family.

It is better to use it to show favor to the royal family and express the Zhuo family's loyalty to the emperor.

Sure enough, the saint picked Zhuo Jingfan at a glance from the crowd, thinking that his appearance and upbringing were good, and his family background was barely passable. Most importantly, his son seemed to like him immediately, so he made a decision Made him the princess.

After Zhuo Jingfan was designated as the crown princess, Zhuo Rongyong took the position of Zhongshuling not long after. He knew that he was able to be promoted smoothly this time because of his son's blessing.

Therefore, even though he doesn't like this cowardly eldest son, he still has the decency that he should have. He even personally asked about his son's dowry, so that his son can marry into the royal family in a glorious way. With this dowry, at least his son Life in the palace will not be too sad.

After Zhuo Jingfan entered the East Palace, the Zhuo family no longer had the Dalang Lord, only Erlang from the wife of Qingping County, even the servants in the family knew that the Zhuo family would be handed over to Erlang in the future.

After Mrs. Qingping County sent Zhuo Jingfan to the palace, she was really honest for a while, allowing Zhuo Rongyong to live a long period of quiet life.Unexpectedly, after the news that His Highness the Crown Prince might recover from his illness came out from the palace half a year ago, she started to restless again.

Zhuo Rongyong felt a little funny and ironic in his heart, he knew why Xiao Wanniang sent Zhuo Jingfan to the palace, wasn't it because Zhuo Jingfan took the title of eldest son?

In the end, she never expected that His Royal Highness, the Crown Prince, was about to recover. Now, Zhuo Jingfan, the Crown Princess, has made great achievements. After all, the eminent monk said that the Crown Princess is the lucky star of His Royal Highness, who can help His Highness eliminate disasters. coming.

For this situation, Zhuo Rongyong is optimistic, Zhuo Jingfan is his son, if Zhuo Jingfan gets well, Zhuo Mansion can follow suit, and he can get some glory, nothing to lose.

Even if he has reached the second rank, it will be beneficial and harmless for him to make a good impression in front of the saint, so he is very calm about this matter, but he did not expect his wife to be so calm.

It was also because Xiao Wanniang became more and more out of tune that he gradually lost his patience. He and Xiao Wanniang had been married for more than ten years, and they still had affection, but they were almost worn out by the other party's ignorance and jealousy.

Now Xiao Wanniang wants to offend her eldest son again, and wants to send her daughter to the East Palace.

Sometimes Zhuo Rongyong really doesn't understand, how did the Jiangling Xiao family teach a prostitute like Xiao Wanniang?Which aristocratic family's prostitute would act like this?It was so shortsighted and petty.

First of all, in order to polish Yuan Pei's son-in-law, marry Yuan Pei's son-in-law to a man, even if that man is His Royal Highness, Xiao Wanniang will inevitably bear the reputation of being a harsh stepson.

Now, because His Royal Highness may recover from illness, he has to send another daughter-in-law in. This appearance is too ugly, and if it spreads, the Zhuo family doesn't have to be human anymore.

What's more, the second sister's trouble in the East Palace early this morning has already damaged her reputation. If she really enters the East Palace, she may only attract the disgust of the saint.

It would be bad if you let yourself be implicated at that time.

So whatever Zhuo Rongyong said, he would not agree to let Second Sister Zhuo enter the palace at this juncture.

Xiao Wanniang didn't know what Zhuo Rongyong was thinking, she only wanted to make her daughter better, what could be better than being a prince's concubine and becoming a concubine of the first palace in the future?

Just marrying someone else as the first wife, how can it compare to the beauty of the saint's favorite concubine?If the second sister can win the mercy of His Highness the Crown Prince, and when His Highness the Crown Prince ascends the throne in the future, she will be honored as the fourth wife of the first rank by virtue of the holy grace, and even the nine concubines will have the second rank.

Moreover, the Crown Princess is a rooster that can't lay eggs. If her second sister can give birth to a son and a half daughter, then the mother will be more expensive than the son, even the queen's position is not out of the question.

Now her husband is Zhong Shuling, and she is the wife of Qingping County who was proclaimed by a sage. Her second sister can't marry too lowly. Looking at the capital, only the royal family can be considered a good match.

If Zhuo Rongyong knew that she had such thoughts, he would definitely regret letting her in. Her eyelids are so shallow, how will the second sister she taught be any better?

Fortunately, Erlang left A Niang's side after he was three years old and moved to the front yard. Otherwise, if he was placed next to Xiao Wanniang, he might not be very successful in the future.

"Don't put your mind on the East Palace anymore, teach the second sister well for a while, and read the Fourth Nvshu again, and read it every day if you don't understand it, until you understand it." Zhuo Rongyong didn't want to waste any more time Talked to Xiao Wanniang, so he sent her away with words.

"...The concubine knows." Xiao Wanniang did not dare to disobey him, so she had to leave the outer study in dismay, and returned to the inner house behind the second gate with the wives who were waiting outside.
