Greetings, Ninth Uncle - Chapter 124
When Queen Yang heard her eyebrows twisted, hesitantly: “You mean … By giving the prince a chance to choose a concubine, how many eyes can you put in?”
“Yes.” Dou Xiyin couldn’t help but move forward, lowering his voice and said, “Auntie, there are three houses and six courtyards in the Holy, and the prince also has a selection of talents. Which man under the world is not a third wife or concubine? It ’s been almost a year since she ’s a jealous woman, and she ’s the only one who is famous around the prince. Auntie, do n’t say she is a prince, even if it is placed in the ordinary people ’s home, this is extremely jealous and overbearing. Move. ”
Queen Yang heard nothing and seemed to be thinking. Indeed, although it is said that young couples are a little bit warmer because of their first menstrual affairs and newly-married Yaner, it has been rare to have a concubine in a year.
This is true of ordinary officials and eunuchs. Those in the Hou Hou Bo Mansion, men even had concubines in the house early. Even if they didn’t raise their face in order to give their wives a face before marriage, after marriage, they often have to give these people a formal name. Apart from his wife, there are only one or two concubines who are clean and self-righteous. This is a famous concubine who has crossed the Minglu. .
If any son is clean and does not mess with the maid, it can be used as a capital to show off. But Li Chengjing’s situation is a bit scary. He has been married for a year, not to mention the official selection of talents. Even if it was the prince who was accidentally lucky by the prince, Queen Yang didn’t seem to have heard of it.
Queen Yang was also unsure, I do n’t know if it was Cheng Yujin ’s strict management of the palace and her methods of dealing with women were superb, or whether Li Chengjing really did n’t spoil other people. Queen Yang did not believe the last point, but in the palace, the woman who quietly dismissed the servant, did not alarm anyone, and Queen Yang could not do it by herself, not to mention the prince who did not have the right to rule the palace. ?
Queen Yang was a little moved, and in her view, men did not dislike fresh. There was no one around the prince, and most of it was Cheng Yujin who was tightly guarded. The prince was embarrassed to lose his wife’s face. If outsiders send ready-made fresh beauties to the collapse, can the prince still push them out?
At that time, wouldn’t someone who mixed a few Queen Yang among the beauties opened the door in the East Palace. As for whether these women can survive under Cheng Yujin’s … that’s not what Queen Yang cares about.
Queen Yang hesitated and said: “This is indeed a way. But since the Princess had entered the palace, she did not have any difference in her actions and she is still pregnant. If the palace is for her, I am afraid that others will say that the palace is not merciful. ”
After all, Queen Yang is Li Chengjing’s stepmother. At that time, Queen Zhong, the birth mother of the crown prince, was still a bit filthy. Although no one knew what was happening under the cleaning of the Empress Dowager Yang, Empress Yang saw Li Chengjing’s lack of confidence.
Dou Xiyin said: “Auntie, this is what you want to do. You are the queen and the prince’s sister-in-law. Now the prince is pregnant and can’t wait for the prince. For the sake of the heir, why not send someone to serve the prince? It was originally Cheng Yujin who was at fault. The prince should have two selections, four talents, and eight ladies. She was jealous, seized the prince, and wanted to suppress other servants. You chose a concubine for the prince. Maintain etiquette and set rules for all women. ”
Queen Yang was gradually moved and nodded: “You are right. But the prince said at the small banquet last year that she would respect the ancestors’ etiquette and wait for the forty-year-old sister-in-law to plan concubine now. Being pregnant, if this palace is giving people at this time, there will always be a suspicion of Guatian Lixia. ”
“Oh.” Dou Xiyin laughed disdainfully, and said, “Auntie, do you believe that too? The man’s mouth is so good, there are really young women on hand, can they still refuse?”
Queen Yang’s last worries were dispelled, and she said aloud: “Yes, you are right, this palace is too forward-looking.”
Cheng Yujin stayed quietly at Ciqing Palace to raise the baby. Since the accidental pregnancy was revealed at the wedding banquet of Shouwang in May, Li Chengjing admitted the situation and Cheng Yujin stayed in the house for a long time. Now the whole world knows that the prince is pregnant, she can’t close the door, no one dares to say more.
The season is gradually entering the rainy season. In the past few days, there have been several heavy rains in Beijing, and it was cloudy for half of the time. Waking up early this morning, there was another patter of rain outside the window, and the raindrops fell from the blue glazed tiles onto the stone steps, making a rhythmic sound.
In the afternoon, the rain finally stopped. The people in Ciqing Palace let out a long sigh of relief, and Forsythia hurriedly commanded the maiden, opened the window, and let out the sulking in the palace.
The wind outside was enveloped with water vapor, cool and clear. Cheng Yujin leaned in front of the window and read a book. Just after turning a page, the palace person reported that the queen’s mother was sent. Cheng Yujin raised her eyebrows, knowing that she could not finish the book today.
Cheng Yujin simply closed the page, sat up, and said, “Xuan.”
Coming from the right maid of Queen Yang’s side, Cheng Yujin saw this person, and he already had a good deal in mind. It seems that Queen Yang must bring her out this time, otherwise, she will not send an elderly meritorious deed, making it impossible for Cheng Yujin to refuse.
Cheng Yujin knew that she was bound to take this trip, but on the surface, she still didn’t realize it, and she smiled and asked: “It’s Grandma Zhou, what is the power of this palace, and how can you do it?” ? ”
Grandma Zhou gave Cheng Yujin a salute and said, “Prince Concubine lifted her love, and the old slaves were terrified. The concubine and the Queen Mother miss your body very much, but it is not easy to declare you going to Kuning Palace. These days it often rains Sliding up, in case there is a length on the road, it is not the queen queen. The queen queen is not at ease, so she specially sent the old slave to ask. ”
“Thank you empress caring queen.” Cheng Yujin said standing up, said, “The queen summoned, this palace naturally obey, how can the queen send someone to ask me. Grandma Zhou, please lead the way.”
“But it just rained outside and slipped on the road …”
“It’s okay. The queen’s lady is looking for me for something. Mo said it was raining, but lightning flashes and thunder didn’t dare to delay.” Cheng Yujin laughed. “Besides, the queen’s lady is in charge of the Sixth Palace, and the palace is under the queen’s governance. Now the Queen Mother is calling me, if there are problems on this way, it is too unreasonable. As the Lord of the Sixth House, how is it possible for this low-level flaw to occur? ”
Grandma Zhou was speechless and was said by Cheng Yujin. Queen Yang seemed to be grilled on the fire. How dare you let Cheng Yujin go wrong on the road. Grandma Zhou smiled and should be, after going out, Grandma Zhou was very careful to see the road, more worried than she was pregnant. She was afraid that if one did not pay attention, the master fell, and then Queen Yang could not tell.
Cheng Yujin is pregnant now, and just after it rains, the person carrying the sedan is very careful. When the sedan finally stopped at the gate of the Kunning Palace, the people up and down were sweating.
Cheng Yujin entered the Kunning Palace without hurrying. When she entered the palace gate just now, she noticed the sedan chair regulated by the princess. This season, this joint eye, who will be inside is really clear at a glance.
After she entered the palace, she found out that Dou Xiyin was already there.
Cheng Yujin had just made a salute. Queen Yang quickly asked the maid to hold her up and said, “The concubine is pregnant, so you don’t have to pay more. Please sit down.”
Cheng Yujin did just make a show. She didn’t refuse to sit down on the side chair.
Cheng Yujin can avoid the ceremony, but Dou Xiyin can’t be regarded as invisible. She stands up and salutes Cheng Yujin: “See Princess Princess.”
“Princess Shou invites you.” Cheng Yujin just glanced at Dou Xiyin, then he did not pay attention, and stopped looking at Queen Yang. “Children are inconvenient, and there is much neglect. Please forgive the queen.”
“It’s okay.” Queen Yang said, “You are pregnant with the first heir of the prince. If it is a boy, it is the eldest grandson of my dynasty. Your stomach is so precious that it should be raised by thousands of people. , These hypocrisy can save. ”
Cheng Yujin smiled: “Xie Niang Niang is considerate. It’s just that the prince and I have said that the children are all fate. Whether the baby is male or female, the prince is not forced. The queen’s maiden gave birth to a son, but I was at a loss Now. ”
The corner of Queen Yang’s mouth skimmed unpleasantly. Sure enough, even if the tiger is a vegetarian, it is actually a tiger. Cheng Yujin didn’t go out for half a month, so the oil and salt didn’t come in and the water dripped. Queen Yang thought that there was a serious matter today, and ignored Cheng Yujin’s army, but continued to say: “Prince Princess is right, you are now, meditating and raising the baby is the most important thing, the rest are virtual. Only The crown prince is the country’s capital and cannot be neglected. The crown prince has been so heavy these days that it is inconvenient to serve the crown prince. I don’t know how to arrange the servants? ”
Yo, have you reached into her room? Cheng Yujin skimmed the tea foam without any interest in drinking tea, and put the tea cup back on the table again: “I just entered the palace, I am young and have little insight, I only know today that it turned out that except for the harem harem, The matter was also arranged by the Queen Mother? ”
Queen Yang is a stepmother, and it is a matter of arranging which woman the stepson sleeps in. Empress Yang embarrassed her face and quickly said: “Naturally not. The palace is in charge of the sixth house, but the eastern palace is not in the scope of the harem. The prince is fortunate which woman is of course the prince himself decides.”
“Oh.” Cheng Yujin nodded and looked at Queen Yang with a smile. “That’s good. I thought that the rules in the history books and the laws were wrong in all these years. The Queen Mother said just now, The son-in-law mistakenly thought that the queen would arrange concubines for her highness.
Queen Yang’s words came to her throat, and she was suddenly blocked by her words. Queen Yang couldn’t hold her breath, her face was very weird. Dou Xiyin saw that there was anxiety and quickly interjected: “Queen empress, don’t you mean to prepare the intimate for the prince. Now the prince is here, you don’t send it now, When will you wait? ”
Dou Xiyin pierced in one sentence, and Queen Yang couldn’t help it, so she continued to say: “Yes, this palace did find a few suitable people to come to share the prince’s grief. Here, call the good girls up, give Crown Princess Kowtow. ”
Koutoujingcha is a necessary etiquette for concubines to meet the main room. Only when the main room receives tea, this concubine’s identity can be truly recognized. Similarly, once the other person’s tea is accepted, even if he is unwilling, the main room You must pinch your nose to recognize it.
Out of the side hall, there are four beauties of water spirits, Huanfei Yanshen has their own strengths and weaknesses, and when they see Cheng Yujin all kneeling down at her feet: “The slave has seen the crown prince.”
Between the brows, I saw pity. Cheng Yujin saw them unhurriedly and said, “The queen and princess Shou are here too. You only ask me what kind of system you want? Do you want to commit the following crimes and disrespect the queen?”
The four beauties were startled and never expected this development. They had been told by the queen long ago that they knew they were going to be given to the prince. The four of them were all budding, and when they came to the ceremony, they used all the means of the net worth. They had known for a long time that the crown prince didn’t seem to have good sex, but a few people didn’t take it seriously and even rubbed their hands. However, I never imagined that their enchantment has not yet begun, so they have to fall at the starting point.
Where did they dare to admit the crime of disrespecting the queen, several people looked at each other, and quickly kowtowed to the queen and Dou Xiyin: “Don’t dare. The slave sees the queen’s mother and the princess Shou.”
Queen Yang was originally planning to give these four people to Cheng Yujin. All her soft and hard words were thought out. Unexpectedly, she saw a row of beautiful women kowtowing at her, and Queen Yang’s heart was in a stubborn mood.
Who is giving this to someone … Queen Yang hurriedly stopped and said, “Prince, the East Palace has no electorate so far. You are pregnant and can’t be bothered. It will be difficult to find a woman of innocent and good character for a while. This palace is distressed by your tiredness, so I have found four people for you. The four of them have a thorough study of this palace. They are all very gentle and filial temperaments, and they will surely be able to serve the good prince and relieve you of boredom when you are bored. Princess, what do you think? ”
Queen Yang’s words, courtesy and courtesy are all complete, and Cheng Yujin can’t get rid of it from anywhere. Dou Xiyin smiled when he heard it, so he looked at Cheng Yujin in a leisurely manner.
“The kindness of the queen’s mother and the sons have taught them.” Cheng Yujin’s voice just fell, and the eyes of Queen Yang and Dou Xiyin were obviously brightened, but when Cheng Yujin’s voice changed, he suddenly asked, “The queen’s mother and the sons have something unclear. For the woman , Should you obey your parents ’orders, or your husband ’s orders?”
Queen Yang suddenly became alert. Although she did not understand what Cheng Yujin did, she felt that Cheng Yujin was setting up a suit. Queen Yang thought for a while, and said cautiously: “From the father at home, from the husband to the husband, from the husband to the son. Everyone should be filial to the parents, the wife to the husband, and the son to the mother, so the in-laws and husband-in-law will not have differences. Obedient parents and obedient husbands are the same. ”
Empress Yang thought that all these remarks were comprehensive and escaped all traps. It’s impossible for Queen Yang to hit twice exactly the same way. If Cheng Yujin still used the original method and wanted to borrow her words to fight against the generals, it would be naive.
But Queen Yang did not expect that Cheng Yujin still smiled when he heard it. Queen Yang saw Cheng Yujin smile and subconsciously raised her hair.
Cheng Yujin smiled and said: “The queen’s mother and daughter are right and reasonable. After the queen said, the children were suddenly bright.”
Queen Yang was surrounded by her, a little flustered and annoyed, she couldn’t help frowning: “What are you talking about?”
Cheng Yujin said: “As the Queen Mother said, being filial piety and loyalty to the son of the son, and the prince is both a son and a servant, it is natural that the ancestor’s decree should be regarded as a gui. Na Yi concubine, His Royal Highness the ancestors respected their ancestors, and had told the concubine to lead by example and follow in the footsteps of the ancestors. The queen ’s lady was kind to me, I was very moved, so I should be filial to my elders. Not concubine, if I take the initiative to lead people back, would n’t I be disobedient to my ancestors, and also trapped in my royal prince in a place of unbelief and filial piety? ”
When Queen Yang heard that her brows were getting tighter and tighter, she realized that she had hit the jackpot. She clearly thought that Cheng Yujin might use her words to make an essay, but she knew it, but she could not avoid it.
Because when Queen Yang answered the questions along Cheng Yujin’s way of thinking, she was already stuck. If Queen Yang said that the woman wanted to obey her husband, then Cheng Yujin would say that the prince did not want to accept the concubine, she should obey the prince; if Queen Yang said that the woman should be filial and choose to obey her husband between her husband and her in-laws, then Cheng Yujin moved out The founding emperor, on the pretext that she and her prince should obey her ancestors, was still not concubine.
Queen Yang understood that Cheng Yujin had not planned to take people from the beginning, so no matter what Queen Yang said, Cheng Yujin was ready to speak. Even Queen Yang said that filial piety to elders is better, because in this way, Queen Yang himself has been surrounded. Empress Yang can rely on her seniority to suppress the prince, but she dare not say that the founding emperor Ding was wrong.
Queen Yang’s mood at the moment was extremely inexhaustible, and she only said that a person would not be tripped twice at the same place. In a blink of an eye, she fell into the pit again.
