Chapter 923: "Distinguished Guest"
Li was originally sick with a heart, and after deciding to refuse this reward, he slowly got better. is not for the side, but I really don't want my son and daughter-in-law to be affected.
Her own illness and the disturbance caused by it are not a star.
Cao Jia's sisters all went to visit their mothers.
Li is relieved and sad. Thankfully, the children are filial; Sadly, because of myself, I don't know what gossip will be, and the children will not be happy at that time.
But she didn't know that Cao Jia's and Cao Yi were both confused.
After all, they are in the house, even if they know some news, it is just that the Li family has received a bequest from the Queen Mother.
This is a good thing, how can you get sick when you are so good?
And the Li family is not a person who is moody, although she didn't say anything to her daughters, but Cao Jiashi and Cao Yi also saw that she was smiling.
After they were placed in Li's medication, they went back to Wutong Garden with Chu Yu and wanted to ask for details.
Cao Hao was already waiting for them here, and even Li's background was vague to the outside world, but he didn't want to hide it from his family.
I heard that the Li family was born by Concubine Hui, if this Concubine Hui had no accident, she would be posthumously crowned queen in the near future, Cao Jiashi and Cao Yi both frowned.
"What does the emperor mean? Since Concubine Hui can be posthumously sealed, why can't she justifiably recognize her mother? No matter how rich the reward is, it is not justified! Regarding his mother's life experience, Xu has heard too many rumors before, but now that it has been implemented, Cao Jiashi is not surprised, but he is full of grievances for his mother.
"This makes the relationship clear, and we can't recognize each other, isn't it even more sad? Is this the mother's disease? Cao Yi was worried about Li's condition.
Cao Hao let out a long sigh and said, "Mother has already made a decision not to receive this reward. ”
"Huh?" Cao Yi was already surprised; "This is the sin of disobedience......"
Cao Jiashi was much calmer, glanced at Cao Hao, and said, "You shouldn't be afraid, since the emperor feels guilty about his mother, he will take care of one or two." It's just that if these are really the dowries left by Concubine Hui, the emperor will not take them back, and I am afraid that it will still fall on the mother in the end. ”
Cao Hao also figured this out in the past two days, but he still supported his mother's "refusal".
This grace is heavy, Cao Hao has been worried for most of the month, but he has no room to speak. Now, it is good to let the Li family make a full gesture, which can be regarded as letting those who are watching this matter understand that the Cao family is not greedy.
Chu Yu was beside him, and when he saw that the three of them had gloomy faces and no joy, he couldn't help but think a little cranky. Wouldn't it be nice to be a bystander and know that the grandson of the emperor is known?
Although the Cao family is now raising the flag, they are Han people in the end, and their foundation is limited. It wasn't until Chu Yu entered the door that the emperor contacted Jia En again, which was better, but it couldn't be compared with those Manchurian magnates.
Cao Jia's family was not born high, and he also suffered a lot of anger in his early years. It's just that she has a strong stomach, and she gave birth to four sons in a row, and the relationship between the husband and wife of the king of Pingjun is good, and the position of Fujin is stable. Otherwise, the county king's mansion would not have a single side of Fujin.
Only the children of the Cao family can do this, they don't pay attention to power and money, and they are led by "filial piety".
At this moment, Cao Jia's heart was already thinking clearly, sighed, and said, "Even if my mother doesn't accept this, she also receives the grace she deserves." Earlier, I thought that the emperor was too kind to our family. Even if my grandmother had a love for the saints, these were over. Now I understand that I can refer to the marriage of the Pingjun Palace, the younger brother can marry Chu Yu, and the third brother-in-law can attack the Duke of the country, which is not the love between my grandmother and my father, but the love of my mother. ”
After saying this, the three brothers and sisters looked at each other.
Cao Hao didn't expect Kangxi to take these things back, but he was just looking for a step, which not only complied with his mother's wishes, but also solved the 100,000 taels of gold.
In this world, there are no absolute secrets.
The country is poor and the people are rich, isn't this a disaster? The sixteenth elder brother made that method to hide it from people for a while, but he couldn't hide it from Kangxi.
Cao Hao was still looking forward to returning the 100,000 taels of gold.
Although gold is a good thing, it is dazzling to look at, but to be honest, the Cao family does not lack this.
Cao Hao's family background over the years, if you count it, you have also saved 1.8 million taels of silver. It's just that he is not greedy, and he knows that the point is up to the end, otherwise it is not easy to think of the idea of making a fortune for the country.
Now it seems that they are really not qualified to say anything other than Shane.
Even if there is a grievance in this, only the Li family has been wronged.
Thinking of this, the three of them, who claim to be filial, are a little uncomfortable.
"I knew this was the case, I ...... at the beginning" Cao Jiashi muttered half a sentence, but the rest was indescribable.
If you know this, what can you do? Can she not marry, Cao Hao not marry, and Cao Yi can stop her husband from inheriting the heir?
Thinking of this, everyone felt that it was not a taste, and they were speechless.
In the end, Cao Jiashi made a conclusion and said: "Let's be children, let's come according to my wife's wishes." ”
Cao Hao understood what this sister meant, this was to take care of Li's emotions, and only treat "rumors" as "rumors". Since the emperor is vague, they figure out what to do. In the eyes of outsiders, it seems that they are frivolous.
Cao Fu's reaction really surprised many people.
These words, the news that the emperor wants to posthumously crown Concubine Hui has been transmitted back to Rehe and the capital.
In the Rehe Palace, although Concubine De and Concubine Yi were half angry, everyone knew that Concubine Hui was taboo, not a character they could mention, so they could only endure it and listen to the news of the palace and the capital.
The Holy Driver has already sent a decree to the Ministry of Rites to prepare for this matter, and after the Holy Driver returns to Beijing, he will officially issue an order to posthumously seal it.
Wang Concubine didn't know whether she was happy or surprised, and she was a little worried about the Li family in the capital, so she had to send people back to Beijing with gifts next year of Cao Yin's third anniversary, mainly to visit the Li family.
In the capital, Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui were also a little unable to sit still.
The two of them are Kangxi's earliest concubines, among which Concubine Rong began to wait before the emperor's wedding, and she has also heard of "Concubine Hui".
If nothing else, let's just say that the noble daughter of Horqin, raised in the palace of the Empress Dowager, almost became the righteous daughter of the Empress Dowager, they vaguely remember.
At that time, they all thought that the noble Horqin noblewoman would be canonized as a concubine, but they didn't expect to get the will of the courtier.
These words, even the queen's words, are not happy, trembling.
Many people rumored that the emperor was pro-government and could not tolerate Ao worship, nor could he tolerate Sony and curb Bilong.
The queen's position is unstable, after all, the empress dowager and the empress dowager are both Horqin noblewomen, and it is not uncommon for them to want to set up another queen of Horqin.
However, some people said that the noble daughter of Horqin was promised to the old emperor earlier.
Although he did not officially wait at the old emperor's side, he had the title of half of the concubine, so the queen mother did not allow the emperor to accept it.
Concubine Rong and Concubine Hui were just concubines who entered the palace, and they didn't even have the title of nobles.
Later, the noble girl did not marry in the end, but died of illness in the palace. did not enter the palace, so she was posthumously named a concubine, and only the Horqin noblewoman who was of the same clan as the Empress Dowager and the Empress Dowager had this dignity.
That's it, the emperor still felt wronged, and had a quarrel with the queen.
Unexpectedly, after more than 50 years, the emperor brought up the old matter again, how could these two palace concubines not be shocked.
"Eniang, that Hui Concubine Niangniang is really Huang Ama's childhood sweetheart? Why haven't I heard anyone mention it all these years? "The first one who couldn't bear it was Princess Gulun Rongxian.
She has received the letter from the third elder brother, knows what happened in front of the emperor, and also knows the third elder brother's thoughts.
Although she, like the third elder brother, didn't plan to stop her, she felt a little uncomfortable in her heart.
She always thought that she was the most beloved daughter of the imperial father, and she was secretly a little proud that she had to be crowned Princess Gulun.
In the capital, the dignity of her princess's mansion is no worse than those prince's mansions and county prince's mansions.
Unexpectedly, all of a sudden, there would be a queen posthumously, and there would be a real princess.
There was no one else in the temple, but all the people sent out.
Rao is like this, Concubine Rong still lowered her volume, and said: "Concubine Hui just passed away from illness, and there are also people in the palace who say that more than ten people have been killed in the Empress Dowager's Palace, and the palace maids and chamberlains in the Empress Dowager have been replaced. Since then, it has become a taboo in the palace. Later, after a long time, no one mentioned it. Now it seems that if the Li family is really from Concubine Hui, then the 'death' of the year is fake, and the exit from the palace is true. ”
When Princess Rongxian heard this, she always felt that there was something wrong with it.
is the person who is protected by the Queen Mother, the Queen Mother, and the Emperor, even if the Queen does not allow it, she will not dare to do it easily. Unless, it is those people who acquiesce to Concubine Hui's departure from the palace, she can get out of the Nine Gate Palace.
The reason why the imperial father hasn't forgotten it after more than 50 years is because that Concubine Hui abandoned the palace and fled, right?
Princess Rongxian looked at Concubine Rong and felt aggrieved for her mother.
His mother concubine was the first to wait by the emperor's father's side, and she folded four elder brothers in a row, although she is now ranked among the fourth concubines, she has long been unfavored, and even the power of this harem is controlled by Concubine De and Concubine Yi.
The title of concubine, even if the mother concubine wants it, can she get it?
Princess Rongxian only felt like a numb heart, not only telling herself to look away, but also couldn't help but want to fight for her mother. But is it really possible?
Knowing her son Mo Ruomu, her hesitation, Concubine Rong saw that it was wrong.
Concubine Rong took her daughter's hand and said, "Don't you usually like to mix with these, why are you stubborn now?" The emperor is the emperor, how can we speculate at will. E-Niang only hopes that you and the third elder brother will be safe and sound, and she will be satisfied. The emperor's grace, give it to you, don't worry about it. E-Niang is timid, don't scare E-Niang. How did Concubine Hui survive all these years? If it weren't for the fact that she was afraid that she would be gone, and her grandchildren would have no one to take care of, it would have passed long ago. E-Niang can't live like that, if it makes E-Niang scared, E-Niang's old life will be almost over. ”
Hearing this remark, Princess Rongxian sighed in her heart.
yes, indisputable.
If the younger brother really has that blessing and ascends to the throne as the eldest son, Eniang will also have a postscript; If the younger brother doesn't have that blessing, he ends up as a prince and Eniang is promoted to the throne, which will only attract the jealousy of the new emperor...... How did the Li family know that before he showed up, he was already disgusted by Princess Gulun.
Just as she doesn't want to break her peaceful life, others don't like her "being born out of nowhere".
Although the princess does not have the right to succeed to the throne, it is precisely because of this that the identity of the princess is more concerned by the princes and elder brothers. If you win over, you will help and you will never become an enemy.
Therefore, on the day of Cao Yin's "third anniversary", the distinguished guests who came to Cao's mansion without telling were not one or two......
