Chapter 2076 Beware of the Qi family

"Did you say something else?"

Rong Yi opened her mouth and said, "Everything else is trivial and important. Aunt Qi has not returned to the capital for many years, and every plant and tree in the capital is very rare. I also chatted with her a lot about the changes in the capital over the years at the Qi family. My aunt also said that if I have time, I should spend more time with her and walk around the capital, and I thought to myself, this is a good thing."

Meng Simin's smile paused slightly, but her tone remained unchanged. She just looked at her and asked, "Oh, why is seeing it a good thing?"

She didn't look angry, but for some reason, Rong Yi felt that she was already unhappy when she asked this question.

So, when he replied, he was more measured: "This is because the two families are family friends. Although they have not interacted with each other in these years, this time Uncle Qi and Aunt Qi can come back to the capital. As a junior, I can also You should try your best.”

This time, Meng Simin stopped smiling completely. She picked up the teacup without tasting the tea. She put the teacup down again, and when she spoke again, she was a bit cold.

"You don't need to do your best for the Qi family. I have to remind you that it's best for you to stay as far away from the Qi family as possible."

Rong Yi's eyelids twitched, and she had some thoughts in her heart, but she still asked without knowing why: "Why is this? Your Highness, please clarify."

"From the time you came in and talked about the Qi family, you had smiles in your eyes. It can be seen that you are very happy about the Qi family. You have only been in the house for a short time and have seen little about the past and the future. You cannot clearly see the Qi family. True, I don’t blame you, but... you have to know that your Majesty’s reward for the Huaiyang Marquis and his wife’s return to Beijing this time was your Majesty’s reward, but it was also His Majesty’s intention. You are so smart, so there is no need for me to make it clear. I know. You have a sense of proportion and ideas. As long as you keep these words in mind, it’s fine.”

Now that she had said so, Rong Yi naturally stopped asking. She took a deep breath and just said: "Your Highness is right. Thank you for giving Rong Yi a clear explanation."

"You are from my Jiang family and the crown prince of the palace. I can't watch you being used without knowing it."

Rong Yi calmed down: "It's Rong Yi who is too stupid. It's just that when I look at Aunt Qi today, she doesn't seem like someone who should be guarded against."

Seeing that she could listen and not have many doubts, this comforted Meng Simin. At least after she said this, she didn't feel that she had ulterior motives. The tea in her hand was already warm and she just drank it.

After drinking tea, she continued: "If she let you see the flaw so easily and become defensive, then what she did was a failure. I just wanted to tell you that I called you here today. You can be close to your family, but more importantly, you have to be careful. In this world, no one can be trusted except yourself, and no one can be trusted except your own family."

Rong Yi looked at the eldest princess, nodded and said, "Rong Yi remembers it."

Before leaving, Meng Simin also said: "Let the children come to my place tomorrow night. The prince and I will not be able to finish the newly made cakes."

Rong Yi smiled slightly and leaned down in response.

As the beautiful shadow went away, Nanny Lin glanced at His Highness who was in good condition, smiled, and said: "Since Your Highness likes the third girl so much, why not bring the third girl to your side to raise her? She can't be too far away. If the prince and the The Crown Princess has thought about it and sent someone to send her back." Meng Simin frowned slightly: "I like girls, but I never thought about fulfilling the responsibility of a grandmother and raising her by my side. After all, the child must grow up beside his parents. happy."

She likes the little girl very much and also likes Ling'er, but that doesn't mean she wants to win someone's love. If she were her biological grandmother, she should have brought the child over to raise her for a while. However, she wasn't her biological grandmother, so she shouldn't. If you want the older child to come over and raise him, this is very good now. You can take it as soon as you think about it, and it won't cause people to worry too much.

They were all old people who were following her. How could Nanny Lin not know what His Highness was thinking about? She only said: "After the second lady gives birth, your Highness can do whatever he wants."

Meng Simin smiled, and said lightly: "It is even more impossible for me to come over to raise their children. Since ancient times, there have been many problems between mother-in-law and daughter-in-law. If you don't pay attention, you will offend someone. Their first son, if I If your own preferences are forced upon you, it will only make the mother sad."

Just because she has never experienced the suffering of a mother-in-law does not mean that she does not know her duty as a mother-in-law. Meng Simin thinks that she is different from other women in the folk. She should be tight, loose and in charge of her children. She is never vague about things that should not be taken care of, nor is she arbitrary, nor will she become the evil woman in the play.

Even though he didn't like this daughter-in-law at the beginning, since he couldn't stop them from getting married, now that they are going to be parents, how could he, as a mother-in-law, interfere with her again? One stab made her family restless. Now that she was married and had a family, she had to re-examine their relationship with herself.

Stubbornness will not only hurt others, but also hurt yourself.

The autumn wind swept the fallen leaves, blowing a large area, sweeping and blowing all over the courtyard, covering it with a layer of golden light. Rong Yi sat quietly at the door with a blanket on her legs, looking at the scenery outside with empty eyes, thinking in her mind All I can think about is today.

In fact, when they were at the Qi family, Rong Yi had noticed that the Marquis of Huaiyang and his wife returned to the capital this time. It seemed that His Majesty missed his old ministers, but in fact it was the royal family's restriction on the Marquis of Huaiyin.

The Marquis of Huaiyang is the Marquis of Ten Thousand Households. Huaiyang has a vast territory and rich resources. It is not a small remote place, but it has left the capital city, where the powerful are concentrated.

Logically speaking, if there is no summons to grant a title to a marquis, the Marquis of Huaiyang will not be able to enter the capital forever, but once there is an order to let him enter the capital, it will definitely not be a good thing.

From ancient times to the present, veterans who have made great contributions to the dragon are either immortalized and "exiled" for thousands of miles, or they are famous in history and only talk about glory day and night.

The emperor's heart is unpredictable. Therefore, no one will seriously think that having the power of Conglong is an absolute blessing. The success or failure of many people depends only on the emperor's thoughts. The emperor's power is to make everyone We all understand that even if you are a meritorious minister, a minister is still a minister after all. No matter how high your achievements are, they are all given by His Majesty.

It is cruel and realistic. Even if the ruler is a benevolent monarch, it is absolutely impossible to allow the existence of any high-achieving master.

However, His Majesty is not completely ruthless. The people who followed him at the beginning have now achieved good results. Only a few of them have been sent away from a distance, but it is definitely not a case of loyalty and wrongdoing. Even those who were sent away can guarantee that Future generations will never have to worry about anything, but they will not be able to live in the center of power, playing with power at the feet of the emperor, just like the Jiang and Qin families from the beginning.
