Chapter 717 Warm spring thunder, suddenly in front of the head
Of course, the Empress made a scene in the Ci'an Palace. Of course, it was not for the matter of Princess Chu, but in the early morning, the Shoukang Palace had an edict. The Empress Dowager "negotiated" with her to make her niece Chen a noble concubine - on this matter, the Empress Dowager naturally reached an agreement with the emperor first. In fact, the emperor did not care about adding another member to the harem, whether it is a noble concubine. I don't think it's important. Not being aware of this matter at all will lead to a dispute between Chen and Qin. At present, the emperor has no leisure to consume the power struggle between Zhuli and his family in the harem. He must be wholehearted to stabilize the throne. In his opinion, Chen and Qin's discord is more conducive to future rule. If the ministers are united, won't he be defeated by these people? Together, put on an iron ring and let people lead the nose?
But the queen obviously did not understand the meaning of the emperor. Of course, even if she did, she would not agree with it.
She thought she was bullied by the Empress Dowager, which was not just a suppression, but a slap in the face.
The empress dowager first took control of the palace affairs, and the queen had been dissatisfied for a long time, but the etiquette and filial piety were above, and even Qin Xiang did not support her to "take power". That's all. Seeing that Qin's concubine was quite favored, she immediately wanted to install a niece and a noble concubine - this is unusual. The noble concubine needs to have a canon ceremony, which is also a high one holding a treasure seal. Position, with the support of the empress dowager, it is clear that she will cooperate with the palace affairs in the future and completely empty her queen.
This time, the queen didn't fool around. Although she cried loudly, what she said was also reasonable--
Chen is not the direct daughter of a concubine, and she is not an old man of the hidden residence. What qualifications do you have to pass the imperial concubine Deng, who has already bred with the eldest princess, and even oppresses the imperial empress dowager Shufei Yan. It is illegal. It is the empress dowager's eccentric and unfair.
When Concubine Yan was involved, the Empress Dowager was also dissatisfied.
Although Concubine Yan is a concubine, she is a direct descendant. In terms of her identity, she is comparable to Chen's identity and one step ahead of Chen's. Why should she succumb to the next?
And the empress dowager is not thorough enough to "ventilate" with the empress dowager first. What does it mean? It's nothing more than finalizing this matter first. Even if the Empress Dowager is dissatisfied, she can only compromise.
Although the empress dowager is in charge of palace affairs at present, the empress dowager is the supreme leader. According to the etiquette, the empress dowager also needs the empress dowager to nod first.
This time, the empress dowager did not scold the queen, but gently comforted her.
Immediately ask the Empress Dowager.
So the empress dowager hates the queen more and more. In her opinion, there is no need to mention the many brothers of the Chen family. Only the second brother is the real blood relative. However, at the beginning, the former emperor executed people. For the sake of the overall situation, the empress dowager must endure, but she is always ashamed of the second master Chen. In order to make up for it, she intends to let the second master's direct The Empress Dowager entered the harem so that she could replace the queen in the future. Since she knew the will of the second sister-in-law to fight for the position of noble concubine for the third mother, the empress dowager also agreed, but she also understood that the empress dowager would have resistance. Aside from Concubine Yan, it was the case of Wu. The empress dowager was bound to have a grudge against the Chen family. How could she promise Chen's daughter? "Under one person" above the concubines?
is the empress dowager intending to force the queen to be soft first. As long as the queen agrees, the emperor has no objection, and the empress dowager can't go her own way.
Unexpectedly, the empress dowager failed to suppress the queen, but directly exploded the queen's bag of explosives.
This matter is glued down.
He also said that the emperor was indeed confident and returned with regret on this day. Instead of forcing the Empress Dowager to treat the King of Chu and his wife, he broke it with a knife. Instead, he broke another general - Shang Shu Zhuojin.
Although it is acceptable for Wei Ji to take over the emperor, what is the intention of the Empress Dowager's strong attitude directly into the chest of the emperor like a piece of raw iron, defending the Duke of Wei and win over the king of Chu? It's not that he, the emperor, has gone beyond the scope of constraints, and he is completely manipulated as a puppet.
But the emperor can only give in for the time being. He dares not argue on the surface, but secretly plans a conspiracy.
But he needed to vent his anger, and it was useless to target others, so Qin Xiang was unlucky.
The emperor completely did not want to indulge in covering up this matter and contributing to the waves. This time, he was very resentful of Qin Xiang's self-righteousness and carelessness - so many etiquette and law-abiding officials in the Supervision Institute did not use it. Unexpectedly, he used a lot of rotten villains and was easily pinched by others, and Zhuo Jin was also involved in this mixed water, which was a loss. It's still a small matter. What's more angry is that you can't steal the chicken and lose the rice, and you lose your wife and lose the soldiers!
Qin Xiang was burned by this anger and suffered unspeakably, so he had to explain: "Please forgive me. In fact, because I don't care about things, and because I have too many scruples... If the subordinates of the minister targets the concubine Su, I am afraid that the king of Chu will be suspicious. Even if the princess is abolished, Qi Niang will be rebuked by the king of Chu."
I know that this old man's heart is to win the help of the King of Chu! The emperor sneered repeatedly.
However, Qin Xiang did not feel anything wrong with his concerns. At the beginning, the emperor agreed to let Qi Niang marry into the royal palace and had no choice but to resign. Later, Qi Niang was willing to be a concubine, which made a bad reputation, and the emperor also acquiesced. This shows that the emperor was happy to see the marriage of Chu and Qin instead of opposing it. Originally, everything was in the plan. Yu Yu There is no evil feeling for the Qin family, even secretly helping. If it hadn't been for the return of Concubine Su, I'm afraid that at this time, Qi Niang would have fulfilled her wish.
Since the princess returned peacefully, the Qin family could not act too radically. The intention was obvious, which made the king of Chu disgusted and failed. If you say that Qi Niang's idea was indeed clever, she persuaded Concubine Su to ask for peace, but who would have expected that the empress dowager to be so resolute? Obviously, the Empress Dowager did not want to decentralise her power, but intended to win over Su and Chu to control the emperor. What does this have to do with the Qin family? Qin Xiang felt wronged.
As long as the Empress Dowager agrees to allow Concubine Su and her to divorce, the old princess has been moved by the Seven Niang. She will come forward and persuade the King of Chu to marry another, and beg the Empress Dowager to give permission and transfer from the world, the Seven Niang's reputation will naturally be restored. When the Tian family gives the marriage, can the Qin family still stubbornly and not allow the Qi Niang to return to the clan? This matter is not natural and logical, and who dares to talk about the right and wrong of Qi Niang? Even if it is mentioned, it is also a legend of "the most affectionate" and "keeping the clouds open and the moon".
After listening to Qin Xiang's explanation, the emperor did not directly satirize the greedy delusion of the in-grandfather. He said directly about the situation: "The empress dowager is obviously trying to curb the situation, and she is bound to allow Concubine Su and Li. She can't be punished by gossip alone, let alone. Regardless of Yu Yu, the only way to use the old princess can only use the old princess. The Qin family came forward to persuade that if the old princess allowed to come forward to ask for the side concubine for Qi Niang, the right prime minister could come forward to calm down the situation and not let the king and his wife of Chu be convicted for the incident.
This naturally makes Qin Xiang anxious - because if this plan is adopted, if Qin Ziruo will live in the position of concubine, the Qin family will have to bear the "shameless" remark. People only meet to discuss the Qin family in order to send their granddaughter as a concubine, they will do whatever they can!
The emperor ignored Qin Xiang's dilemma: "Right Xiang is at ease, and I will not watch Qi Niang succumb to others. Concubine Su will definitely die."
But he didn't say anything about "supporting" Qi Niang.
Qin Huaiyu is not confused. He completely understood that the emperor is afraid of marrying him and the king of Chu. In the future, as long as the seventh wife becomes a side concubine, the Qin family will take the name of "shameless". Whether he can clear his bad reputation in the future and whether the seventh wife can become the imperial concubine is all in the thought of the emperor.
Although the side concubine has a grade, she is only a concubine, which is equivalent to an ordinary rich family's concubine. No matter how expensive it is, it is not a serious in-law. What's more, after the death of Concubine Su, the emperor is very likely to marry the king of Chu and let other girls become princesses - there are still daughters to be married under the Chen family!
But can Qin Xiang refuse and refute it? He can't.
Not only can't, but also must be handled immediately. Let Mrs. Qin promote this matter while the iron is hot. If the old princess first learns the truth that the Empress Dowager does not want to investigate, Qin Zi is very likely that he can't even get a side concubine. If he is really a slave and a maidservant in the royal palace, Qin Xiang must not listen to it, and he doesn't have this. Granddaughter.
As long as there is still a chance, Qin Xiang is not willing to give up, because at this time, no one is sure whether the emperor will change his mind in the future, and he has no other choice at present.
So, on this day, Qin Ziruo smelled the thunderbolt and was almost blown away by the thunder.
She is willing to be a concubine, which is the key reason why Concubine Su is not above her, and she has never intended to endure humiliation all her life.
But at present, even if Mrs. Qin repeatedly promised that the emperor would not let Su Fei live on her head to do her, Qin Zi can naturally think that this is because the emperor is afraid of the prime minister's mansion. In the future, it is very likely that she will be limited to the position of side concubine for life and can't go any further.
If Qin Zi doesn't really give up her name and worldly, her all forbearance is only temporary, and she has never thought of giving up her name.
This blow is very heavy on her. The position of the side concubine is actually not Miss Qin's "delusion".
But she also had no choice. The female Zhuge was completely confused and couldn't help crying like rain.
She is not as optimistic as Qin Xiang. She has almost been sure that the emperor will not allow her to become Yu's wife. This bad news actually made Qin Ziruo more desperate than Su Fei's return on that day.
The only extravagant hope is to strive for Yu Yu's protection in the future, resist the order for her, refuse to marry another, and help her to the position of imperial concubine despite all difficulties.
At this time, Miss Qin completely forgot her setting for a "beason" - even if she valued love and righteousness, she should not care about loyalty and filial piety for her children.
If she is rational, she really has no fighting spirit and determination to face the current dilemma.
However, what Qin Zi didn't expect was that even the old princess had no intention of accepting her as a side concubine at all - the simple and simple old princess was discussing with the two mothers Zhu and Xie - you said, should I find an opportunity to take the Qin family to the banquet and tell Qin in front of the noble women and those who slandered them. Does the family want to come forward to quell the rumors on the condition that the Qin family become a side concubine? If the Empress Dowager knew that this was okay, would she be more and more disgusted with the insatiable and shameless greed of the Qin clan?
also said that on the first day of March, it was not very pleasant for Zhuo Nianyu, because early in the morning, her aunt, Mrs. Zhuo, came to plead guilty.
Mrs. Zhuo was really angry and angrily scolded Nianyu for having no conscience. She didn't care about her at all, and failed to live up to her kindness and hobbies - she gave her loyal Yao to Nianyu as an assistant, but Nianyu did not know how to return people.
Threatened Nianyu again: "I won't let you get close to the Duke of Wei and the Princess of Chu. Because of good intentions, the emperor is now extremely afraid of the Duke of the State of Wei. As a wife of the clan, the princess of Chu has been criticized by her subjects for being notorious and will not bear good results! Although Uncle An is famous, his career will have to rely on connections in the future. If you are close to the Duke of Wei, your uncle has the intention to help him. Once the emperor hates it, his uncle can only be idle.
In a word, it was so dom that Nianyu couldn't raise her head.
Unexpectedly, in the afternoon, the general manager of Shangshufu rushed to Anfu in a hurry and reported that the river had changed and the sky and the earth collapsed!
"Madam, the big deal is not good. The news came from the six government departments. The adult was detained by Dali Temple for the crime of atonement, and even the Shangshu Mansion was also banned by the government!"
Mrs. Zhuo rolled her eyes and collapsed to the ground.
So Nianyu quickly asked for a doctor, and he really turned over.
