pastoral beggar woman

Chapter 1843 Someone blocked the way (4)
It is really not surprising to have such a statement. Originally, as a prince, the person who can be a princess must be a descendant of a famous family in the capital in the eyes of everyone, and he must be the most top-notch one, which has a slightly bad reputation. None of them are suitable, and the side concubine must choose among many other noble women in the capital to be worthy of the crown prince.

It's fine for a senior official's family to have a merchant's daughter as a concubine, but if there is a merchant's woman in the prince's backyard, it would be a bit too unsightly.

"Although the true version is considered common people's thinking, your rumors are spreading too fast." Situ Yu squinted his eyes and snorted coldly, and said, "There must be those nobles who are thinking about the status of the crown princess/side concubine." The women's handwriting was not distributed by them themselves, but also secretly done by their families, in order to belittle you as much as possible and tarnish your reputation."

"By the way, we can use public opinion to try to influence the royal family's thinking." Qin Shuang thoughtfully added another possible effect.

At her request, neither the emperor nor the empress had indicated how to arrange for her, whether it was a side concubine or a concubine was uncertain, and the crown princess estimated that no one in the capital had even considered that she might be the one to do it, so she could not mention it for now.

Since there were only these two possibilities, and the palace still hadn't revealed any definite news, it was inevitable that some people would be thinking, maybe the emperor and queen haven't figured out what kind of position Qin Shuang would be suitable for?
As mentioned above, if she is just the daughter of an ordinary merchant from a foreign country, it is fine to be a concubine for a high-ranking official, but it is not qualified to be a concubine for the royal family or the prince, but she has saved the prince and has given birth to two children. A grandson of the emperor, so this is probably not enough?

In this way, being a concubine is definitely a certainty and will not change. The key is whether it is possible to go up another liter.

Mere concubines cannot even enter the genealogy of the royal family. Only when they become concubines can they enter the genealogy, and they can enter the imperial mausoleum together when they die. It can only be raised next to the main concubine or side concubine, otherwise she will not even be qualified to compete for the throne when she grows up.

Qin Shuang's "gratitude" to the royal family can be regarded as two shares. If one is used to ask for a concubine position, and the other is used to ask for a side concubine position, although it is a bit greedy, as long as Qin Shuang manages it properly, for example, make both If a child seeks the favor of the emperor and queen, or if she herself gets some special treatment from the prince, the chance of success will be higher.

The purpose of the news circulating in the capital is to shake the emperor and queen's life. Since the people in the capital think that Qin Shuang's conditions are not suitable for the crown prince, making her a side concubine may be a bit too much favor. up.

Even if she can't be a side concubine, even if Qin Shuang stays with the prince in the future, she won't be able to threaten other people. If she wants to find a chance to deal with her, it will be easier to run on her. The chances of noble ladies being selected will naturally increase a lot.

Qin Shuang figured it all out with just a flash of skill. As Situ Yu has heard more rumors these days, he can naturally guess the purpose of the person who keeps spreading these words behind him. .

On the one hand, he felt that those noble girls were too dark-hearted, and suppressed Qin Shuang without achieving their own goals. They didn't look like ladies from a famous family at all. A concubine or a side concubine, but they don't know that they have long been the default concubine. Their calculations are a joke in Qin Shuang's eyes. They are jumping around like clowns, but they can't attract what they should attract. Even if they don't have the ideas of others, they can't put the person they envy down and take the position themselves.
