Chapter 683 Countermeasures, marriage is still pending
"Madam is polite."
Yijing smiled, put her hands firmly on her knees, and looked at Mrs. Qin, who was sitting at her lower head. She reported that there were only these five words in her long modest words, just like the posture of the superior, but she was still graceful, not unruly and domineering, but this gesture made Mrs. Qin mixed feelings, only she I know that unwillingness and resentment play a great role.
But at this time, she could only maintain humility and feelings, and could not have any disrespect in her attitude, so she had to fight again: "If the son was in such a situation at that time, my concubine was really sad, but in the end, she could not bear to see that she had nowhere to live. The old princess was kind-hearted, and now the princess was tolerant. Although she knew that the princess was busy, she was bound to face her face. Thank you for your courtesy."
Listening to the words of gratitude, but in the end, the word "courtesy" explained the problem. Mrs. Qin was unwilling to visit her but was not received by the master. A porter led her to the lower room to meet her daughter. Princess Chu obviously did not treat her as a court woman, as if she was a relative of a slave in the house.
"Originally, when she returned to Beijing, she didn't want Ziruo to run with her, but she cried and begged to see her wife. I pity that she was separated from her family because of her momentary obsession, so I promised that if she could see her at any time, she didn't need to be uneasy, and she would be free to see her in the future." Beautiful scenery seems to have not understood the meaning of Mrs. Qin's words. This words almost made it clear that you will not be treated with the courtesy of guests - you are a relative of my maidservant in my house. It is also a kindness to let you meet from time to time, and you still want me treat you as a distinguished guest? Mrs. Qin, you think too much.
Yi Jing glanced lightly and saw that Mrs. Qin's smile did not diminish, and then she bent her lips - as expected, the queen was not raised by this. If the queen had 50% of her mother's self-restraint, she would not have made so many jokes.
"In addition to meeting Zi Ruo, my concubine's visit today, there are more important things to apologize for the Empress's words and deeds yesterday. The Empress has always loved and hated her affairs. In the end, she does not want Zi Ruo... This is just the Empress's concern and chaos. Please forgive her." Mrs. Qin suddenly looked solemn and her attitude was more modest: "The princess's words yesterday are not unreasonable, and my concubine is more grateful. If the son is indeed regretful at this time, but the elder of the family is angry for a moment, and the concubine still needs time to plead for mercy."
It turned out that it was for this... Yijing could understand what the Qin family was worried about only by moving his fingertips. It was nothing more than doing shameless things and caring about reputation. At the beginning, if Qin Zi was "willing to be a concubine", Qin Xiang expelled his family and drove his family, with a clear and righteous backbone of "righteousness" and "heartbreaking", but at this time, the princess When she returned safely, the queen immediately forced Meijing to give Ziruo a "name". If Jingzhen pushed the boat smoothly and opened her face to Qin Ziruo, she first determined her status as a concubine, but she had no choice but to open it up - the queen had an order, and my concubine did not dare not disobey it.
In this way, the " archway" that the Qin family painstakingly set up has undoubtedly become a joke, and even the emperor has to be humiliated.
Mrs Qin is really worried. Princess Chu is no longer ashamed of the words and deeds of the Qin family, and she does not want to add a fish bone to her throat.
However, there are other traps in Mrs. Qin's words. Of course, the scenery has to be bypassed.
"Madam's words are serious. The Empress is indeed very eager for a while because she is deeply in love with her son." The implication is that the queen's words and deeds should not be made by you, a right-right lady. Although the lady is not qualified to apologize to the queen, I, the princess, can't bear the word "forgiveness".
Sufei is really difficult to deal with. No wonder it is difficult for her son to take advantage of her, not to mention the queen's repeated frustrations. The anger in Mrs. Qin's heart rose again, and the smile at the corners of her lips trembled. As soon as she raised her eyes, she saw that the scenery had been raised in her hand, knowing that this was the intention of sending guests.
After the corner door came out, Mrs. Qin finally couldn't help slapping the case heavily, and her palms tightly clasped the edge of the case, and her face was blue.
In the past, although Mrs. Qin knew that the men in her family were planning to push King Qing to the throne, she had never thought of being hostile to Princess Su and did not regard people as opponents, so she did not pay much attention to it. Even if Qin Zi did such shocking things, Mrs. Qin also thought that Concubine Su could not be safe and was not an obstacle.
But yesterday she heard her eldest daughter tell Su's disdainful words, and today she also saw with her own eyes that her son was a maidservant. Of course, she could not avoid resentment.
She was angry if her son was obsessed with it, and resented the men of the Qin family by any means. She even thought of how her grandmother opposed marriage with the Qin family in those years - the Qin family was a minister of Dongming, but it rebelled against the king. What she said for the people was nothing more than whitewashing her face. The mourning emperor was imme, and there was a clan in the Eastern Ming Dynasty, the Qin family. If it is loyal and good, why not set up the Eastern Ming clan as the emperor, and it can also play a role in comforting the people and the government? The Qin family is nothing more than seeing that the Chuzhou army has approached Kyoto and is unwilling to give up its power. His family is also a relative of the Eastern Ming Emperor. To put it bluntly, they are afraid that the country will be liquidated by the new emperor, and their glory and wealth will not be guaranteed. Only then take the banner of serving the country and the people and the first to take the king. Sincerely! Such a person, unfaithful and unjust, has been corrupted at the root, and it is shameful to be a famous family!
It is ridiculous that those men who put "loyalty, filiality, benevolence and righteousness" and "family prestige" are supreme, and those men who strictly require women with "courtesity, righteousness and shame" and "virtuous chastity" have trampled on virtue once they touch their feet.
How did her father listen to her grandmother's advice?
Grandma is wise, and the Qin family has been broken from the root.
But how can she be tall alone at this time? She can't see her daughter being humiliated, so even if she knows it's a shameless road, she can only step on it with her eyes closed.
The Qin family is her family, and the Su family and Princess Chu are her enemies.
What comforted Mrs. Qin a little was that her little daughter, who was humiliated and trampled by Concubine Su, was not angry and unwilling. Unexpectedly, she was calm and self-rehindered her worries in one sentence - what her mother was worried about would not happen.
Of course, Qin Ziruo didn't want to live under him. At that time, "willing to be a concubine" was a must-do move. The reason why Qin Ziruo became famous was that there was no pressure from the main room of Concubine Su. She was very sober. At present, if she really sit in the name of "concubine", she will undoubtedly never turn over and will be ashamed for the rest of her life. Fame involves small family matters. The important thing is that with the queen's intervention and coercion, the king of Chu will also hate her and dare not look forward to the love of his lover.
So she would rather be humiliated, slave as a maidservant, and endure until the dark flowers are bright.
The daughter's sobriety and calmness appeased Mrs. Qin, and then she comforted Zi Ruo in turn - your father did not want to really give up on you. They had a countermeasure.
Then he raised the Chen family and provoked the Ci'an Palace to make a gap between him and the eldest princess, so that the two families had a feud in detail.
"Without the protection of the Empress Dowager, Concubine Su is bound to be abandoned by the royal family."
After listening to this, Qin Ziruo was not happy and said for a moment of deep thought, "Although this plan is good, the Chen family and the empress dowager think of the Ci'an Palace too simply. For Chen Liulang alone, the empress dowager will never embarrass the eldest princess."
Sure enough, Mrs. Qin visited Zi Ruo and just returned home this day and listened to her eldest daughter's detailed words from the palace - today, Mrs. Chen and the eldest princess went to Ci'an Palace one after another. Mrs. Chen looked unhappy. Although the eldest princess was angry when she left, she returned home with peace.
"Sure enough, I was told by your seventh sister." Mrs. Qin frowned deeply: "If Zi Ruo guessed that the city of the Empress Dowager should persuade peace from the middle. Chen is not an arrogant person. Knowing what happened to his son, he dared not force the eldest princess to marry his granddaughter, but if the Chen family compromised on this, the later plan would be more difficult."
The hatred and suspicion between people will not breed out of thin air. You have to bury seeds before you can fertilize them.
"Our Qin family can't stand by and watch this matter, but we can't come forward in person." Mrs. Qin muttered, "Only direct advice to the emperor."
"It's not easy for the emperor to intervene in this kind of marriage." Aunt Qin is at a loss.
"The matter involves the supervision of the empress dowager, and the suppression of the Su family in the future, how can it only concern the marriage of children?" Mrs. Qin repeated Zi Ruo's words: "In order to win Chen's discussion, the Empress Dowager will not refuse directly. She should have some persuading the eldest princess. This will have an opportunity. When the matter comes to an end, the eldest princess may not doubt that Ci'an Palace will say something behind her face to face."
The more she went on, the more confident she was in Ziruo's strategy: "Since the former emperor's edict is in the hands of Ci'an Palace, why is it not fair to the public? It shows that this person still has reservations and is reluctant to make a gap with the emperor. When things happen, he will always consider the emperor first, and there is time to drill. I'm going to see your father. Be sure to seize the opportunity.

In the Qianming Palace, the emperor frowned, and the golden dragon from the clouds on the yellow brocade robe also seemed to be infected with some anger. At least in the eyes of Third Master Chen, who was the prime minister of Dali Temple when his forehead was covered with cold sweat, the dragon claws were sharp and fierce, and it was about to come to his face.
With a "pop", it was the emperor who slapped the chapter in his hand, followed by a sneer.
"If the empress dowager doesn't change her mind, the later things will not be easy to proceed?" He repeated Chen Sicheng's words, and the corners of his eyes were full of ridiculing: "Do you still expect me to make a determined such trivial matter?"
Chen Sicheng's kneecap trembled, and his waist was lowered a little lower, but it really can't be distinguished - my emperor, my god, the empress dowager does not want to force the eldest princess, and even the empress dowager can't think of a countermeasure, and there is really nothing she can do.
At this time, Qin Youcheng, please see--
This mother Ding You has just recovered, but Qin Huaiyu still has no idea of becoming an official. He is Qin Youcheng's official and can't go further.
