Chapter 145
There are no secrets in the palace. When the queen's mother came to visit the queen and left with a smile on her face, it didn't take long for noble Zhu who was far away in the Honghui Palace to get the news.After listening to Sun Shangshi's words, Mrs. Zhu, who was lying on the imperial concubine's bed, frowned first and began to think hard.As she was thinking, her forehead bulged one after another, making her look extravagant against her white jade-like skin.
After about two hours, Mrs. Zhu sat up straight and said, "Not good! I'm afraid the Empress thinks it's all done by me!"
Sun Shangshi, who had been waiting by the side, was taken aback:
"Your Majesty, you, you mean..."
Zhu Gui said: "Shangshi, don't forget that the family-saving villa built by my natal family is also expensive. If you criticize Concubine Jia Shu, who costs less than half of that of my natal family, wouldn't you involve me in it too?"
It's not just her noble Zhu who can't do this, even her natal family can't do it.
Hurt the enemy one thousand and hurt eight hundred, this sentence is not their Zhu family's style of work.You know, their Zhu family is now on the cusp of the waves, and if they are not careful, they will become someone else's target. Therefore, their Zhu family has always acted cautiously, because they are afraid that they will be behind their backs after doing their best. Take a stab.
Sun Shangshi immediately understood the seriousness of this: "Your Majesty, do you mean that someone is plotting against your Majesty?"
"good."
"So, who would it be?"
Naturally, whoever is above a certain level and spends more than half less than Concubine Jia Shu.
Zhu Guiren suddenly wanted to say this, but when the words came to her lips, she swallowed them forcefully.
Not only her, but also Sun Shangshi was terrified.
In this harem, the empress is the only one who occupies a high position and doesn't spend much money on the family-senting villa?The number of concubines in the palace have all returned to their natal homes to visit their relatives, and even Concubine Jia Shu, who has not officially entered the palace, has built a palace because of the emperor's edict.After counting in the palace, those concubines with low status who are not even Jieyu must not have dared to catch them all in one go.Counting them in detail, ignoring these people, only the Empress' natal family Cheng'en Gong's mansion did not build a family-in-law villa.
Thinking that it might have something to do with the queen, nobleman Zhu immediately shut his mouth.
No matter what, no matter how favored she is, she is still the emperor's concubine. Even if she is the emperor's concubine, she is different from ordinary people's concubines, but today's Wansui is a very law-abiding king. Without real evidence, even she can't be called a queen. It's not.
This is the emperor's principle, and no one in the harem dares to violate it.
Even if Lord Zhu dared not point at the queen directly, Sun Shangshi was even more afraid.She just waved her hand to let the palace people back out, then opened the doors and windows like that, carefully made a gesture with her back behind her back, and gestured to Mrs. Zhu with her mouth:
that one?
Zhu Guiren narrowed his eyes, thought for a while, and said: "Not necessarily, maybe someone deceived that person and wanted to profit from it."
"Your Majesty, what you mean is—"
Sun Shangshi made another mouth shape of Duke Cheng'en's mansion.
Zhu Guiren nodded heavily.
Sun Shangshi couldn't help covering his mouth.
They all know that the empress has no children, so it doesn't matter which prince comes to power, she just needs to continue to be her queen mother.Therefore, those who have princes or concubines who can bear children will not be too wary of the queen. After all, today's queens never do such things as murdering the emperor's heir or mutilating pregnant concubines, and the queen herself can't give birth, so everyone knows , the queen's status is respected and noble, but it is also very vain.If the current emperor has a different temperament and doesn't pay attention to everything, then these concubines don't need to pay attention to the queen, but the current emperor respects this first wife very much, how many people dare to provoke the current emperor's taboo?
Who doesn't know that in this regard, the current emperor is very rigid, and the most disgusting thing is that his wife does not have a wife or a concubine.When Concubine Wu Xian and Concubine Zhou De were in the hidden mansion, didn't they immediately lose favor because they gave birth to a son and disrespected the queen who was only a concubine at that time?
Sun Shangshi hesitated, and said, "But, is this possible?"
Zhu Gui said: "Our lady is capable and discerning, and her actions are even more formidable. It's a pity that fate is not good, even if it is the same as in Concubine Jia Shu's family. If the elder brother is not good enough, if he can make progress and is willing to be considerate of his younger sister, then it is not too bad. At least he can teach. But what about our mother? There is a mother in the family, but this mother wants her to help her son get an official position, but she doesn't care whether her son has the ability. Brother, he is not young, and he is She loves her so much that her eyes are high and her hands are low. Our lady is always helping to take care of the funeral, lest he get into trouble, but, do you see that the mansion is grateful?"
Sun Shangshi thought about it, and it was true.
"But, is there such a capable person in that mansion?"
It wasn't Sun Shangshi who said, really, it was Cheng Engong's mansion that made her feel like a group of pig teammates, and it was impossible to do this step.
Zhu Guiren squinted his eyes, and said calmly: "A wise man will lose a lot of worries, and a fool will gain something after a lot of worries. It's nothing strange."
"The empress means..."
"Up to now, those of us concubines who have gone home to visit relatives have been involved. The final result... naturally depends on Wansui's attitude. If Wansui trusts us, we will be fine. But if Wansui doesn't believe it, then we will fall out of favor. The end of the cold bench. Of course, there must be a burst of scolding. Instead, this Meng family..."
What Zhu Guiren was talking about was naturally the niece of the queen who was about to enter the palace.
This Great Jin dynasty is different from the previous dynasty. There is no such thing as a beauty pageant, where the minister's daughter is picked and picked like a Chinese cabbage. Therefore, naturally there is no marriage.Not to mention marriage, even if the emperor himself took a fancy to someone's daughter, he would first ask the relevant officials to go to the Ministry of Households to check whether the girl is married, and if not, then invite the iceman to come to the door and communicate with each other before going down. Courtesy edict.
In other words, if the queen's younger brother doesn't want to marry his daughter to someone else, the queen can't do anything either.Because she couldn't get past her younger brother to marry her niece.
Of course, if the queen was determined not to let the niece enter the palace, the emperor would not be able to take the queen's niece into the palace regardless of the queen's opinion.
In other words, at best, the queen's younger brother would have a stalemate with his elder sister, and then delay his daughter's youth.
Zhu Gui believed that the empress thought that someone had placed people in her natal family, so she nodded and let her natal niece enter the palace.If she went to tell the queen at this time, the queen would probably change her mind - anyway, the emperor was still outside Beijing, and she didn't have time to tell the emperor, did she?
Of course, Mrs. Zhu can also let someone tell the queen to let the queen know the fact that she was being tricked by her natal family.
