The reborn prince's wife

The Ji family in the capital, a prominent family that followed Qi Muxiu, the founding monarch of the Ling Kingdom, came to the north and south. If you want to say that the first family in the capital, it must be the Ji family. Can't say enough.

It is mentioned in the art of the emperor that after no more awards and no more rewards, it is time for this family to start to decline, because their extremely human ministers, the powerful and powerful among the people, will eventually arouse the guard and suspicion of the royal family , but just saying that the Ji family has produced four queens, three noble concubines, three emperor teachers, four chief ministers, and countless court officials, this family has a stable foundation and cannot be shaken.

The queen of the founding monarch Qi Muxiu was born in the Ji family, and the generals who followed Qi Muxiu to conquer the north and south were all from the Ji family. It can be said that half of the country of Ling came from the Ji family. Someone once said that if The daughter of the Ji family who gave birth to a prince must be the prince in the future, but it's a pity that this Empress Ji only has twin daughters and never had a son.

No one would have guessed that this young Empress Ji is a very sober person. She knows that the Ji family is already powerful, and if she gives birth to another son, she will definitely become the acting monarch. The queen's natal family is too prominent, which is taboo for the emperor. Mu Xiu was not wary of the Ji family because of his gratitude to the Ji family and his deep affection for Empress Ji, but this does not mean that the powerful Ji family will never become a thorn in the eyes of the royal family, so Empress Ji takes anti-aging medicine every day. Zitang, she would rather have only two daughters in this life than have a son to inherit the throne and let the Ji family reach the pinnacle of power.

Empress Ji's concerns were indeed right. After Qi Muxiu's death, the fourth prince who had lost his mother in the early years became the new emperor. Taking precautions, after Empress Ji's death, the power of the Ji family gradually subsided, and settled down into a real famous family.

What's interesting is that compared to the powerful officials who appeared in the Ji family, the daughters of the Ji family are actually more outstanding. Just looking at how many empresses and concubines the Ji family has produced, one can see how prominent the family is, and what is even more interesting is the daughter of the Ji family She is always sober and wise, as if starting from Empress Ji, the responsibility of the daughters of the Ji family is to protect the relationship between the royal family and the Ji family, so as not to let the power of the Ji family expand too much and cause the emperor's disgust.

Ji Mengxian is the most outstanding daughter-in-law among the daughters of the Ji family's generation. If such a woman who knows astronomy and geography is a man, she will definitely become the emperor's counselor. In addition, she has a stunning appearance and is proficient in all kinds of piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. No one can beat it.

At that time, the Ji family pinned all their hopes on this well-known talented woman. With her temperament, even if she can't become a queen in the future, she will definitely be able to sit firmly as a noble concubine. However, no one would have thought that she missed it on purpose. In the draft, even the first emperor sighed helplessly. If such a smart woman insists on refusing to enter the palace, no one can force her to do so.

At that time, the prince, who is now the emperor Qi Han, was born by the Empress Yuan, but the Empress Yuan passed away when the prince was young, so the prince was raised by the later Empress Yang. There is no power in the imperial court, the crown prince was registered when he was young, and most ministers do not think that the crown prince can inherit the throne in the future.

At that time, the Ji family was more supportive of the sixth prince born to Concubine Ji. The sixth prince was suspicious by nature, and the city was extremely deep. He grew up with the prince, but he was always calculating. In order to reach the peak of power, the Ji family naturally strongly supported Concubine Ji's son. To be able to inherit the throne, the Ji family wanted Ji Mengxian to enter the palace for draft and become the wife of the sixth prince, who might become the empress in the future.

However, no one expected that Ji Mengxian not only missed the draft, but also secretly designed the sixth prince, which attracted concubine Ji and Ji's family to rebel, and also broke the Ji family's idea of ​​supporting the sixth prince. Later, she married Linyang and didn't want to pay any attention to it. Right and wrong in Beijing, away from disputes, became the wife of merchants.

Liu Yun never knew about these things. In the past, she only knew that the Ji family in the capital was prominent, and her mother seldom mentioned the past to her. Later, she only knew that the marriage of the daughter of the Ji family's prostitute to a merchant caused an uproar, but the matter The past is also the past.

Yuchen and Liuyun were alone in the room, talking about these things, when Yuchen said these things, there was always a bit of sadness in his tone, Liuyun couldn't express that feeling, even she felt like It was like being crushed by a big rock, and he was so stuffy that he couldn't breathe.

"Why did mother marry father? Is it really just because she wants to stay away from court disputes?" Liu Yun always felt that this reason was not sufficient. She could believe that this was one of the reasons, but she believed that this was the most important reason. Couldn't convince her.

"Sister, have you heard the legend of the Ji family? The women of the Ji family are God's darlings, and they can always bring good luck to their husbands. They are a bit similar to... Goddesses of the Western Regions. Although it may be too deified to say this, but Ji The prosperity of the daughter of the Ji family is true." Yuchen paused for a while before continuing, "The daughter of the Ji family has given the Ji family more favor and favor than the son of the Ji family, so in Ji's family The status of a daughter is even higher than that of a son. It is said that Qi Muxiu, the founding monarch of the country, once gave something to Empress Ji in order to thank the Ji family for helping him with half of the country, and it later became a family heirloom of the Ji family. , only passed down to the legitimate daughter, and mother was the eldest daughter of the Ji family at that time."

"What family heirloom?" Liu Yun frowned, why had she never heard of such a thing?

Yuchen shook his head: "I don't know what it is, I only know part of it. Apart from the family heirloom passed down to the prostitute by the Ji family, it is also a mysterious secret guard organization. I only knew about it when I was 12 years old." What happened was that the leader of this secret guard organization came to see me at that time, and then told me about the existence of this organization, in order to protect the daughter of the Ji family, and also to protect the rise and fall of the Ji family."

"Dark guard organization?" Liu Yun was confused, he really didn't know what Yu Chen wanted to say.

"I heard that they are constantly absorbing newcomers, or outlaws, or raising some orphans, but I have never been to that place, and I don't know where it is." Yuchen sighed and looked at Liuyun. , "Late Qing, Qianlan, and Ziqian Ziyuan all came from that place, so in fact their master is not me, but you, because you are the daughter of the Ji family."

Liu Yun stared blankly at Yu Chen, always feeling that there was an indelible gloom in his eyes, she suddenly thought of what Xia Shi said to her before, she said never to go to Ji's house, even if the end of the road, don't go, her that What do you mean when you want to say?

She had a feeling that something was about to surface gradually as she got closer to the capital.
