After Li Jiazhuang got the news, he immediately asked the family to clean up the inside and outside of the village, and also found poisonous snakes.

Li Zhong, the housekeeper of the Li Mansion, came to thank him and said that the old lady of her family invited Princess Sheng to come over for tea.

Even if she doesn't like what Mrs. Li has done, she is the mother-in-law of the current saint and Mrs. Jingru of the royal mouth. She opened her mouth to invite, and it was impossible for Xiao Nuan not to give her this face.

This time, you must go.

Qin said, "Mother will go with you, bring some vegetables from overseas, Mrs. Li is also rare for this." ”

Xiaocao also said, "I'll go too!" ”

Xiao Nuan shook her head, "She didn't invite you, she just had something to say to me, I'll go sit down and come back." ”

Qin Shisheng was worried that Mrs. Li was looking for Xiao Nuan because of yesterday's incident, and advised, "The people in Beijing are good at talking and doing things, and they won't tear their faces easily." If she mentions Zhou Qionghua, you pretend not to understand, and you are sloppy with her, and she can't do anything about you. ”

Xiaocao also gave advice to her sister, "The old lady mentioned Zhou Qionghua's sister and said poisonous snakes!" ”

Xiao Nuan smiled, "Where did you learn this trick?" ”

"Mrs. Li taught it, my mother tried it, and it worked."

The mother is going to master the plan to cure the Yi, Xiao Nuan nodded to reassure them, and then took the bag of seeds to Lijiazhuang to drink tea.

Princess Sheng came, and Mrs. Li got up to greet her.

Although the little warm bun is simple and light, the ivory comb on her head, the coral hairpin and the pink pearls on her ears are all extraordinary. Looking at her beautiful face and the confidence in the corners of her eyes and eyebrows, Mrs. Li knew that her life was very moist.

This girl is blessed, and King Sheng treats her very well.

Xiao Nuan saw that the three girls of the Li family were not in the house, so she guessed what Old Man Li was going to say to her, but the old lady didn't speak, and of course Xiao Nuan would not take the initiative to mention it.

The two chatted from the poisonous snake to the know, and then from the knowledge to the poisonous snake, Mrs. Li finally spoke, "Xiao Nuan, the old body has a very good relationship with your mother, call your maiden name by your age, and ask the princess not to blame." ”

No matter how respected her daughter is in the palace, and how her son calls for wind and rain in the court, Mrs. Li is still inferior in front of Xiao Nuan, the princess, in terms of identity.

Xiao Nuan shook her head with a smile, "Xiao Nuan doesn't dare." ”

Old Madam Li didn't seem to be able to see her alienated attitude, took her hand, and said earnestly, "Xiao Nuan, your family is a cheerful person, and the old body doesn't go around the bend with you." Because of the matter between the queen and Hua Concubine, plus the recent incident of Qionghua, you must be complaining in your heart that the old body doesn't help you, right? ”

Xiao Nuan's eyes were open, "No." ”

Their family and the Li family are not related to each other, Mrs. Li has her starting point for doing things, and Xiao Nuan has her own reasons for doing things, and she can't mention the word "resentment".

Besides, Xiao Nuan's father, grandmother, grandfather, grandmother and uncle are all like that, what's the use of complaining, whoever is sorry for himself just fights back.

Old Madam Li stared at Xiao Nuan's smiling but calm eyes for a while, and let out a long sigh.

Chen Xiaonuan is different from her mother, Qin Lan is soft-hearted, and she can be affectionate after a long time. Xiao Nuan's heart is hard, if you are reasonable, she will reason with you, and if you are unreasonable, she will be less reasonable than you. If you want to get her sincerity, you have to show your sincerity to exchange it with her first.

But the families of the powerful intersect, except for the childish child of the general horn, where is there any sincerity.

This girl is shrewd in business, but why is she so confused about this big thing? She really thought that King Sheng could spoil her for a lifetime, and she was the only one in the house?

Old Madam Li decided to follow the temptation, "Do you know why the queen and the concubine are on the same page?" ”

Xiao Nuan was silent, there was only Queen Li who was water and fire, and Concubine Hua never thought about what to do to her.

Old Madam Li didn't expect her to answer anything, and continued, "The Holy One is the king of a country, and there can be a queen, four concubines, nine concubines, twenty-seven wives, and eighty-one royal wives in the ancestral palace. The dispute between the queen and the concubine is because of men in the final analysis. ”

"The queen is the mother of the country and the wife, but she can't do anything to the concubine, because she is married to the most noble man in the world, he is rich in the world, and there are countless women; Because the Holy Lord and the King of Sheng protected her. Husband and wife are not as good as father and son, and the queen has to endure no matter how angry she is. ”

When Mrs. Li said this, she patted Xiao Nuan's hand gently, "Xiao Nuan, the old body knows that you are happy to hear these words, but if I tell you these words, no one can tell you anymore." King Sheng is the prince, and if he can have three concubines and six concubines, he will treat you like a jewel and promise that you will only be a woman in the inner courtyard, and the royal family will not allow it. ”

"The eldest prince won't mention it, there is a concubine and four concubines in the backyard of King Yi, Concubine Jiang is not weaker than Princess Yi, since Concubine Jiang gave birth to a daughter for King Yi, the backyard of King Yi's mansion is no longer Princess Yi alone."

Speaking of this, Old Madam Li sighed, and seemed to be very sorry for Princess Yi.

Xiao Nuan raised her eyes, "What do you mean?" ”

Mrs. Li said bluntly, "Xiao Nuan, the old body will say something that you don't like." Although you are the lord of the imperial seal, but there is no support from your mother's family behind you, if the two side concubines that King Sheng marries in the future are from better backgrounds than you, and when they have the heirs of King Sheng, what will be your situation in King Yi's mansion? ”

Xiao Nuan was like a mirror in her heart, "So you mean, I'm going to help King Sheng marry two side concubines who are not as good as me?" ”

Mrs. Li complimented, "No wonder your mother always praises you, sure enough, it's just a little bit of a point." The Queen Mother has already favored the daughter of the Fang family as the concubine of King Sheng, and now what you can plan is the candidate for the concubine and the six concubines. You have to hold these people firmly in your own hands, and then give birth to the eldest son of King Sheng as soon as possible, so as to keep the glory that the concubine deserves. ”

"If you can't see through this and forcibly stop King Sheng from taking a concubine, you will only ruin your reputation and dislike the Queen Mother. With the queen mother's temperament, she is unhappy, and there will only be more people who will be stuffed into King Sheng, and now there are no less than ten young and beautiful palace maids in King Sheng's mansion, right? ”

Xiao Nuan nodded again, "You are indeed right. But do you think Zhou Qionghua will stand on Xiao Nuan's side when she enters King Sheng's Mansion? ”

Old Madam Li became serious, "The Zhou family is also a businessman, and they are not much taller than you." In terms of scheming, three Qionghua can't match one of you. If she enters the palace, isn't it at your disposal? If you are willing to let her into the house, the old body promises you that she will never get pregnant until you give birth to your eldest son. ”

Xiao Nuan smiled slowly, "What if Xiao Nuan doesn't want to?" ”

Mrs. Li was not annoyed or angry, she put herself in Xiao Nuan's shoes, "If you don't like Qionghua, then give up." In terms of selfishness, the old body is in love with your mother, so I don't want to see you end up cold; On the duke, King Sheng and King Yi are brothers, Xi Ran and King Sheng are ministers in the same hall, and Queen Sheng's house is uneasy, and it is not good for the Li family. Although the old body's words are not heard, there is no malice, Xiao Nuan, you have to think carefully. ”

Mrs. Li said this, Xiao Nuan believed, she got up and saluted, "Thank you for the old lady's earnest teaching, Xiao Nuan wrote it down." ”

After sending Xiao Nuan away, the mother-in-law helped Mrs. Li back to the house, "Do you see that Princess Sheng listened?" ”

Old Madam Li shook her head, "If she can listen to it, it won't be Chen Xiaonuan." ”

"The cousin ......"

Old Madam Li lowered her eyes.

Whether Xiao Nuan can listen to it or not is her business, whether she says it or not is her own business. Since Xiao Nuan doesn't like Zhou Qionghua, forcing her into King Sheng's mansion will only make Xiao Nuan unhappy, and with King Sheng's current attention to Xiao Nuan, making Xiao Nuan unhappy is making King Sheng unhappy. For the sake of a Zhou Qionghua, I can't do it.

Mrs. Li wanted to pave the way for her grandson, not to find Zhou Qionghua's in-laws.
