The rich and noble peasant daughter

Chapter 338 Eavesdropping, the truth

It is still such a speech that makes people speechless.

After Yun Xi rested here, she took the child back first.

After Chu Xiyuan's coffin was placed in the hall for 27 days, it was sent to the mausoleum in Jingshan.After the grand funeral, Chu Ling officially registered as the emperor on January [-], with the year name Hongyuan.

Yang Yeqing was originally a crown princess. After Chu Ling registered, she was a well-deserved queen.Both Su Wan and Youshi were canonized as concubines as side concubines, Su Wan was the concubine Rou, and Youshi was the concubine Zhen.Judging from Zhen's title, Youshi is still very much in Chu Ling's favor, and he is at odds with Yang Yeqing on the surface.However, Yang Yeqing occupies the position of queen, and both the crown prince and the third prince are descended from her, and her position can be said to be very stable.

Youshi raised the second princess and the second prince under her knees, and was favored by Chu Ling, so there were quite a few people in the palace who flattered her.In order not to be discovered by Chu Ling who is in power, Youshi has basically stopped dealing with Yang Yeqing and others, but the two sides still maintain a tacit understanding.

Apart from these few people, Li Shi, who raised the fourth prince under her knees, was conferred the title of Concubine Shun, and Shi Shi, who gave birth to the third prince, was conferred the title of Concubine Zhuang.The rest are basically noble people, which shows that Chu Ling is still very vigilant about the canonization.Those who win high positions are either from a good enough family background, or they have a strong stomach. It is really difficult to reward high positions with favor.

All of Chu Ling's concubines added up to about twenty, which was a little short in the eyes of the minister.

Under normal circumstances, when a father dies, children should observe mourning for three years, that is, 27 months, but the royal family is somewhat different.After all, a country cannot be without a king for a day, so three months of filial piety were stipulated later.

After everyone's calculations, it happened that His Majesty had already given his filial piety during the three-year draft in autumn, and many families who wanted to send their daughters to the palace began to prepare secretly.For the big Chu draft, the age is from 15 years old to the beginning of the selection, and for the small selection, it is from 12 to 15 years old.

Yun Xi felt that according to Chu Ling's personality, in order to stabilize the country, he would probably choose a few girls from good families to enter the palace.She wasn't worried about this. One Zhuzhu was not yet 11 years old, and the other Chu Xiyuan said that Zhuzhu's marriage was independent. Even if Chu Ling wanted to refer to marriage, Zhuzhu had to agree.

After a hundred days, Chu Xiyuan's filial piety period came out, and the people in the capital who had been holding back for a long time and dared not feast could finally drink and watch the theater with peace of mind.

Previously, within the second month of Chu Xiyuan's death, an uncle went to take care of the outer room, and even made the outer room pregnant.

Yun Shen had a deep affection for Chu Xiyuan, and when he knew about this, he ordered the Yushi to reveal the matter, so that uncle was sliced ​​into a flat piece.

With such a lesson learned from the past, there are no people in the capital who dare to make mistakes, and everyone obediently keeps their filial piety.

At the same time, Yun Xi also received a post from Concubine De.Concubine De no longer lives in the imperial palace, but spends her days in the Jinghu Garden bestowed on her by the first emperor.Speaking of it, the Su family is indeed a smart person, knowing that after the death of the empress dowager and the first emperor, there will be one emperor and one courtier.So the Patriarch of the Su family took the initiative to submit his resignation and resigned from the position of commander in front of the palace. After all, this position manages elite troops, usually the emperor's confidantes.

Chu Ling naturally pretended to stay in the middle school and did not accept it until the Su family submitted her resignation three times. She took back this position, and then awarded the head of the Su family as grand master.Taishi, Taifu, and Taibao, these three belong to those who have grace but no actual position.

If Yun Shen is willing to call out the military power in his hands, I am afraid that Chu Ling will immediately award Yun Shen as Grand Master.Yun Shen has never let down his vigilance towards Chu Ling, how could he hand over the power in his hands, and then become a lamb to be slaughtered at will in the future.

As for whether Chu Ling would miss him because of "ignorance", Yun Xi was really not too worried about it.Even for the so-called reputation of filial piety, Chu Ling would not attack them from the very beginning, and even if she wanted to, she would find an excuse that made it impossible for them to make mistakes.

Even if the other party is really determined, there is still the imperial decree as the last trump card.

On the bright side, Chu Ling treated all the former ministers left behind by Chu Xiyuan equally. Although she also pulled a lot of her confidantes, overall, it was within the acceptable range of the ministers.

After Chu Ling ascended the throne, several of Chu Ling's confidantes also rose in status, and many people treated them differently.

Han Ruyi's life has also improved a lot, and she is no longer shunned like snakes and scorpions like before.

It's a pity that Yun Xi still doesn't give her face, as long as she shows up, she will leave, Lu Yiran, Dai Yanling and other friends also vent their anger on her.

So everyone weighed the comparison of their strengths, and felt that there was no need to offend so many people because of Han Ruyi. After two days of good times, Han Ruyi returned to the way she used to be. Angrily, Han Ruyi cursed those people at home. Only dare to put on a few faces of grievance.

On the other hand, she accelerated the pace of persuading Zhenren Zhang to cooperate with them.

After Yun Xi knew that Han Ruyi invited this real person Zhang to the capital, she couldn't help but smile happily.Very well, if her purpose of deliberately running on Han Ruyi was not in vain, the chess piece finally officially entered the chessboard.

……

At the beginning of April, Yun Xi also went to Jinghu Garden to visit her at the invitation of Concubine De.

The Jinghu Garden is very elegant and exquisite, which makes people forget the vulgarity.

When Yun Xi saw Concubine De, she was picking bright flowers in the garden, and she looked peaceful and peaceful, which showed that her life here was not bad.Beside her is a pair of twins who have the same appearance but completely different temperaments, one is gentle and quiet, the other is innocent and lovely.The two girls standing there are a landscape that can be painted.

Yun Xi raised her eyebrows, the twins are famous sisters of the Su family.They came from the third room of the Su family. The biological mother died of heavy bleeding when giving birth to the two of them, so the twins were raised under the aunt's knees.

Yun Xi has a good relationship with the Su family and often goes in and out, so she is not surprised by the pair of sisters, the only thing that surprised her is that they also came.

The corner of Defei's mouth curled up into a flawless smile, but the smile didn't reach her eyes, "This is Yue'er and Yuan'er, and you have seen them before. They are rare and good children. I am worried that I will be alone in the garden." , come and accompany me."

Yun Xi and Concubine De also have some friendship, so of course they understand the insincere in her words.I'm afraid it was not her original intention to keep this pair of sisters.

Naturally, she would not reveal this matter, and said with a smile: "It's true that they are all girls like water onions, and people are happy to see them."

This pair of sisters looks really good. Their eyebrows are like distant mountains, their eyes are like autumn water, their skin is whiter than snow, and they have the bonus of twins, which makes them even more unusual in the capital.

Elder sister Su Yue looked a little more stable, she pursed her lips and smiled slightly, "I can't bear Madam Yun's praise, Madam Yun is a rare beauty."

"Yes, yes, I dare not go out with my wife, or I will be compared to a vulgar fan by my wife."

The two sisters are so obedient, and with the relationship between the two families, Yun Xi naturally wouldn't show embarrassment to them, and also praised them a few words in a palanquin.

After picking the flowers, Concubine De said to the two sisters: "These are good for making scented tea, or embroidered sachets are not bad."

Su Yue and Su Yuan nodded in exactly the same arc, holding flower baskets in their hands and preparing to pick some good petals to dry.

Yun Xi was Concubine Tongde returning to her room.The decorations in Concubine De's room are not magnificent, but full of lively and elegant taste, and there are many things that girls in the boudoir like.

Concubine De noticed her gaze, hooked the corners of her mouth, and said, "I specially decorated the interior of the house to be similar to what it was before I got married."

Her tone was a touch of nostalgia.

Yun Xi heard that she was a naive and romantic girl before entering the palace, but at that time she still chose to enter the palace instead of asking her family to find a suitable marriage for her.

Yun Xi sat down, and Concubine De personally made a pot of tea for her.

After Yun Xi drank a cup of tea, she put down the cup and said, "Su Yue and Su Yuan are probably planning to send them to the palace." Otherwise, there would be no need to send Concubine De to train them.

Concubine De sighed, and said, "The third room is used to the benefits of sending women into the palace. Now there are no girls from the Su family in the palace. They still want to be relatives, so they can only cultivate new chess pieces."

The former Empress Dowager Su and Concubine De brought wealth and honor to the Su family for at least several decades. The big house where Concubine De lived was able to retreat bravely and accept it as soon as it was good, but the third room had obviously already thought about it.

Of these twins, one is gentle and the other is naive, the addition of the two is not just the effect of one plus one.

Yun Xi said sarcastically: "It should be for the draft at the end of the year."

Some people don't want to enter the palace, while others try to find ways to enter the palace.

Concubine De didn't talk about this topic again, she bent her hand slightly, and wrote a few words on the table lightly.

Yun Xi also sensed that there was a figure at the door, and raised her eyebrows with great interest.

Concubine De said suddenly: "The reason why your Majesty had such a good relationship with Yun Shen earlier was because Zhiyun saved his life at that time, and the other reason was that she was the person in His Majesty's heart. When you arrive, you will naturally pay more attention.”

"When Zhiyun met His Majesty, His Majesty had already been married to the Cao family. At that time, His Majesty was still thinking of resisting the edict, but Zhiyun didn't want him to lose the crown prince for her own sake, so she agreed to marry Yun. Mu's marriage cut off His Majesty's thoughts."

If Concubine De hadn't revealed these old things, Yun Xi really wouldn't have known about them, I'm afraid Yun Shen wouldn't have known either.

After Concubine De finished speaking, she fell silent.

Suddenly there was the sound of something knocking over, and Concubine De exclaimed, "Who?"

Then there was a meow, and Yun Xi said deliberately: "Is it a cat? You still have a cat, Concubine Toffee."

Concubine De said: "Yeah, the skin is going to die, maybe I accidentally bumped the flowerpot again."

The two exchanged a knowing look.

After Su Yuan outside the house left, Yun Xi whispered, "It's Su Yuan."

Concubine De raised her eyebrows in surprise, "Is it her? I thought it was Yue'er. She has some brains, and she knows how to pretend to be a cat."

Yun Xi hesitated for a moment, and asked, "Did you say those words to Su Yuan on purpose?"

Concubine De sighed, and said, "Your Majesty is too kind to Yun Shen, and Chu Ling is suspicious, and has long suspected Yun Shen's background."

"At least what I said can explain why His Majesty is so kind to Yun Shen."

Yun Xi understood what Concubine De meant - Su Yuan was trying to eavesdrop to hear such a secret. Under such circumstances, Chu Ling naturally would not doubt the authenticity of her words.

Concubine De would rather release these news, perhaps to cover up Yun Shen's true background.

Maybe it was because she had such an intuition a long time ago, Yun Xi was not surprised, her voice was still very soft, "So Yun Shen is His Majesty's child?"

Concubine De nodded lightly.

"After she knew that Yun Mu and the Cao family had wiped out the Meng family, she planned to make the Yun family die."

"That's why she chose to conceive His Majesty's child, and then drugged Yun Mu." Let Yun Mu raise her and other people's children, and let the Yun family cut off their children in this way. This is Meng Zhiyun's revenge on Yun Mu.In the end, she chose to use her own life to carve the deepest mark in Chu Xiyuan's heart, so that he would never forget her again, and then transferred this feeling to Yun Shen, in order to best preserve her own love. child.

Her mother-in-law was able to do these things without anyone noticing, saying that Yun Xi would not believe it without Concubine De's help.

Concubine De's eyes were a little dazed, but the smile on the corner of her mouth was a little more gentle, "I will not refuse any request from her."

Yun Xi felt that she was born at an untimely time. She was born more than ten years late, and she couldn't even get a glimpse of the peerless Fenghua who was the number one beauty in Great Chu in the past.
