Chapter 60: A Hot Potato
"This little prince is a hot potato." Yun Fenghuang didn't answer immediately when he heard this, and said slowly, "If you are a healthy prince, whether it is a fourth concubine or a mother, anyone can raise it." But Concubine Wen Huixian is a difficult birth after all, and the prince landed with difficulty, and you also know what the imperial doctor and the old man around us mean just now...... Yin Qu had been in front of the palace for Yin Qian in the past, if someone else raised the Seven Princes but failed to raise them well, you know, he would definitely not give up. ”
If it is true that the adoptive mother is not careful, it will be fine, if the adoptive mother is caring, but because the Seven Princes themselves are weak and unable to return to the sky, and then they will be complained and hated by Yin Qu, this is too wronged!
And now that the palace is qualified to adopt the seven princes, the queen has two princes under her knees, because Gu Su and others entered the palace, she absolutely did not want to adopt the princes of others unless she had to; Among the four concubines, Yun Fenghuang has both children and daughters, and two nieces are raised in front of him; Concubine Shu and Concubine Xian are pregnant, but Concubine De is only a daughter, but she can still give birth when she is young, it can be seen from her previous attitude towards the King of Chu that she can't even treat a prince whose biological mother died early as her own, and you let her treat the seven princes with a strong foreign family as her own flesh and blood, which is too difficult for her.
As for the concubine, Concubine An raised the six princes, and as far as her previous conviction was concerned, the Yin family was stupid to hand over the seventh prince to her to raise; Concubine Xie is notoriously honest, but she is also wooden, the most typical example is the last banquet, Mrs. Qingshu pulled Mrs. Roukun out to relieve Yun Fenghuang, her sister of the same clan, is also recognized to have been taken care of by Yun Fenghuang, but she is indifferent and at a loss, this kind of person can raise her own biological son to count her fate; Concubine Wan and Concubine Shao are handkerchiefs who grew up together, and their knees are empty, so they are barely a more suitable candidate.
But.
Yun Fenghuang reminded the queen: "When Yin Qian had a difficult birth today, among the people who entered the palace with her, only Luo Zhaoyi thought of asking the Yin family to come and accompany her. No one else has ever opened this mouth. ”
"But Luo Hanyi's position is too low." The queen frowned, "And she opened her mouth to intercede for Yin Qian, but she may not have the patience to raise Yin Yuan's son...... You know, Luo Hanyi himself is still young. ”
Luo Hanyi can still give birth to himself, and he can't work hard for the Seventh Prince, and if he is not careful, he will offend the Yin family.
"Let Your Majesty call the shots." The concubine was silent for a while, and finally decided that this kind of hot potato should be served by Chunjia herself.
At this time, Yun Fenghuang remembered and asked the queen: "Why is there only Yin Nuluo in the Yin family today?" ”
"The old lady of their family was unhappy a few days ago, and several daughters-in-law, granddaughters-in-law, and granddaughters waited for them to go to the hot spring village outside the city, and they couldn't come back for a while." The queen sighed, "The host left behind in the house is Yin Qu's widowed sister-in-law, who once gave birth to four heirs and did not stand, and now the heir is a successor, she feels ominous and does not dare to enter the palace, so only Yin Nuluo came." ”
"I see." Yun Fenghuang said, "It's just that Yin Qu didn't ask to see his daughter for the last time, but it's surprising." ”
The queen said: "He is also an important minister in the end, no matter how much he feels sorry for his daughter, he should be a little measured." Harem powerhouse, where is the place where he can come without permission? At most, when Wen Hui set up a spirit, let him and Yin Nuluo come over to worship one or two, which is also the grace of His Majesty. ”
Then the queen didn't know that Yin Qu didn't want to come to Dye Xiang Palace, but fainted directly after hearing the news.
The family hurriedly invited the doctor to be present, and after a few stitches, he woke up slowly, but grabbed the hands of the people around him and asked in a trembling voice: "I just heard the news that Qian'er is gone?" ”
The people around him couldn't bear to admit it, and it was not easy to hide it, so after a little hesitation, he understood, and he didn't come up in one breath again...... Tossed repeatedly until late at night, even the old lady at home was alarmed, and he personally rushed over to guard it, so that he could barely stabilize his emotions, so as not to faint because he was too excited, or cry.
He cried like this, and Yin Nuluo, who had endured it several times in the palace, also cried.
The Yin family was sad and sad, and in the end, the old lady came forward to drink them: "People can't be resurrected after death, Concubine Wen Huixian's bones are not cold, you, as the person she cared about the most during her lifetime, are you not at ease if you want Concubine Wen Huixian to go!" ”
reminded them again, "Although Concubine Wen Huixian went, she left behind the Seven Princes. However, the palace is now suitable for raising the high position of the Seven Princes, either she is pregnant or has an heir under her knees, in this case, not everyone will do their best for the Seven Princes, if you really feel sorry for Concubine Wen Huixian, you should plan for the Seven Princes, lest Concubine Wen Huixian Jiuquan is also worried about her stomach and cannot be stable! ”
This matter finally involved the minds of the father and daughter, making them less attentive to grief, and seriously consider who the Seven Princes should be entrusted with to raise?
Yin Qu's father and daughter are actually the most favorable candidate for the queen Gu Zhen, it's not that they have any ambitions, it's purely because they think that the queen treats the emperor's heir well, and the king of Chu won't say it, if there is no accident, that is, eighty percent of the princes who will enter the East Palace, and it is normal for a mother to be good to such a son.
The key is the third prince, this one has a special status like the second prince, look at what life his siblings live in the hands of Concubine Shu? was thrown into the lotus pond in broad daylight, no matter how the royal family whitewashed the Taiping Law to the outside world, a family like the Yin family still didn't know what was going on?
But Gu Zhen has the same heartfelt love for the three princes as he does for the King of Chu.
Therefore, Yin Qu's father and daughter felt that if the Seventh Prince was adopted by the queen, they should be the least worried about it.
The problem is that the status of the prince raised in front of the queen is different, even if he is not recorded as a concubine under the queen's name, in the case that the two princes under the queen's knees now have no fate with the East Palace, the seventh prince will naturally become a thorn in the flesh.
"Didn't the King of Chu just fall into the Tao before?" Yin Qu's elders reminded him, "The queen is kind-hearted and truly loves the emperor's heirs, but it is useless to raise the prince in the palace and be kind." If you don't have a little wrist, how can you raise an heir? Not to mention the heir of the middle palace. ”
The next person is a concubine according to her position, and most of the elders of the Yin family who chose this person refused.
The reason is very simple: "The concubine came from a humble background, although she has been trying her best to support her blood relatives Xie in the past two years, but the Xie family's background is too thin, and she will definitely not be able to get up for a while." In this way, if the Seventh Prince is handed over to her knees, she will definitely use this as a bargaining chip to force our family to make things convenient for the Xie family, and in the future, maybe she will coerce us to help King Qin...... The one in Xuanqing Palace is too thoughtful, so it's better not to get involved. ”
Concubine Shude's elders have some connections with the Yin family, but because when Yin Qian had a difficult birth, only Luo Hanyi helped to speak, and the Yin family now has some resentment towards these two and Concubine Wan, and they don't want to hand over the Seven Princes to their knees.
Concubine Yuan Xian is even more to say, the most realistic problem is that if the other concubines raise the Seven Princes, if they are not careless or have any negligence, as outsiders, they can find Chunjia for justice, and Chunjia should also give them an explanation.
But the daughter of the Yuan family has the Empress Dowager Yuan as a backer, and the emperor's partiality towards the Empress Dowager Yuan is not clear to everyone?
The Yin family didn't want to find guilt.
Further down the concubine position, minus Concubine Wan, and Concubine Xie, Concubine An, these two Yin family members are also not satisfied, because they have never heard of any special kindness from them, and they are sure that they have no special means...... In short, he thinks that he is not worthy of raising the grandson of the Yin family.
"If you are so picky, then the Seventh Prince can't ask His Majesty to raise it himself, right?" The old lady of the Yin family persuaded Yin Qu, "Don't talk too much about this matter, just ask Your Majesty to call the shots, can Your Majesty still treat his own prince badly?" ”
It was already very late at this time, and several clansmen, including Yin Qu, had to go to court tomorrow, and when they saw that Yin Qu's father and daughter didn't speak, they dispersed.
Originally, with the status of the Yin family, the concubine died in childbirth, or the concubine who was a concubine in the palace died, and someone should come to the door to condole.
However, before dawn the next day, everyone quarreled about whether to return the mother and son of the Da Yan family, and no one cared about Yin Qian's death.
The queen set up a mourning hall in the Dyexiang Palace, because the seven princes were born and weak, only let the palace concubines in the side hall come out to guard the spirit, and called a few walking heirs to burn some paper money for Concubine Wen Hui, so that it finally looks less deserted.
After a busy time, just as he called the imperial doctor to ask about the situation of the Seven Princes, someone from the palace came to tell him that Miss Yin had come to the palace gate to ask for a meeting again.
"I think I want to send Wen Hui, it's also pitiful." The queen casually ordered, "Go and lead her to the mourning hall." ”
The death of Concubine Wen Huixian is a big deal for the Dye Xiang Palace and the Yin Mansion, but in fact, for the entire Sixth Palace, the regret and sigh at that time have passed.
So it was only a day later, and Gu Zhen and Yun Fenghuang returned to normal, and they didn't even go to the Chunbo Hall in person.
In the afternoon, Yun Fenghuang took the book to test the homework of the two nieces in the school, Xie Meng was still spoiled after all, smart but not serious, in contrast, Xie Kuo was quiet and down-to-earth.
It's just that Xie Meng is now very similar to his aunt, similar to Yun Fenghuang when he was a child, and he can't fight as a sister, so he secretly stumbles Xie Kuo......
"It's really a retribution." Just let them memorize their homework for a while, Yun Fenghuang stopped Xie Meng from taunting and hitting Xie Kuo at least three times, this was still in front of her, you can imagine how Xie Meng treated his cousin in private.
After sending the two little girls, she sighed left and right, "When the palace targeted the sixth sister, I didn't think of today. ”
Qingdu and the others all persuaded: "The two young ladies are still young, it is inevitable to be naughty, don't be surprised, just wait until you grow up." When you were a child, you had a quarrel with Miss Six, didn't you make out when you grew up? ”
"Where is it so simple?" Yun Fenghuang shook his head and said, "When this palace grows up, she can reconcile with the sixth sister, how much effort did my mother put into it?" Not to mention that the sixth sister really doesn't care about this palace. ”
Qingdu said: "Miss Kuo didn't bother with Miss Meng. ”
Yun Fenghuang smiled noncommittally, Xie Kuo is so old, he can calm down like this, such a person is either really not careful, or the city government is deep, and he knows that now is not the time to attack.
If it was before, even if one was a niece in the next room and the other was a niece, after all, they were all related by blood, Yun Fenghuang hoped that his mother's family would grow, and it would not work with four rooms alone, so it was reasonable, and he really wanted to cultivate Xie Kuo.
But after the temptation of Kunze's marriage......
Her mind has changed.
"Go back and hand over a message to the thirteenth sister-in-law, and tell the thirteenth sister-in-law about Meng'er's actions these days." Yun Fenghuang commanded lightly, "Don't say that it was said by this palace, just say that you can see that this palace is more and more pitying Kuo'er, and you are afraid that Meng'er will fall out of favor, so you can't help but give her news." ”
Qingdu only thought that she didn't like Xie Meng's arrogance and didn't want to discipline herself, so she hinted at Xiao Chen's action and hurriedly agreed.
In the evening of that day, the middle palace sent someone to invite Yun Fenghuang to come over to discuss the matter.
"It's so late, is there something wrong again?" When he arrived at the Chongchang Palace, Yun Fenghuang saluted and asked straight to the point.
The queen frowned: "It's not an accident, it's just that Miss Yin has just given the palace a problem." ”
Seeing Yun Fenghuang looking over inquiringly, she sighed, "She said that she wants to replace Wen Hui in the palace to serve His Majesty." ”
The point is, "I can also take care of the Seven Princes." ”
