The Book of Raising Children by Houmen

Chapter 298 Rumors (2)
But Aunt Zhu didn't leave. After sitting in Songhe Hall for a while, she followed Zhao Jing to Mingde Hall.Zhao Jing expected that she was a busy person, so she came here with Madam Yun today, and agreed to take her to see the lintel of the Hou Mansion, but in fact, there may be other things.Sure enough, Aunt Zhu sat in the living room for a while, poured down a cup of sour plum soup to relieve the heat, then looked up at Zhao Jing and said, "Chunxiu is leaving the palace too, do you know?"

Zhao Jing remembered that when she entered the palace to thank her, she had met Chunxiu. At that time, according to what she said, she really planned to leave the palace.Zhao Jing couldn't help asking: "Which family is she planning to go to? I've been living in the Hou Mansion recently, so I don't know much about these things."

Aunt Zhu smiled and said, "You should go out and walk around, if not for yourself, then for the children of the Hou Mansion."

Zhao Jing knew what she was talking about. If Mrs. Xu didn't understand the rules of the capital and had a bad relationship with the wives and grandmas of these noble families, Xu Si'an wouldn't be unable to marry a wife at this age. Cheap of their own.Zhao Jing pursed her lips and smiled, nodded and said: "I also know this, the eighth day of the lunar new year is the day of Ji Ji, Princess Xiaoyi's daughter-in-law, and I will pass by myself when the time comes."

After she finished speaking, she looked at Aunt Zhu again, and said with a smile: "You haven't said yet, which family did Chunxiu make a promise to? I don't know how many concubines there are in the family. She has a strong temper, and I'm afraid she will keep her low profile. It is difficult, but it would be better if the Empress Dowager rewarded her with the status of a noble concubine."

After hearing this, Aunt Zhu smiled and said: "She is much smarter than you. You don't care about anything, and you left the palace with a clean sleeve, but now she has found a good backer." Aunt Zhu said, She raised her eyes at Zhao Jing, leaned into his ear and said, "The Prince Regent personally begged the Queen Mother, saying that he would take her as a concubine..."

After she finished speaking, she paused again, and continued: "Young concubine of the Prince Regent's Mansion, tell me, the princess has gone now, although there are several side concubines in the Palace, they don't seem to be very favored by the prince. , saying that Chunxiu had been refusing to leave the palace before, just waiting for the princess to die so that she could make room for herself."

Zhao Jing was horrified when she heard this, but she had worked with Chunxiu for many years, so she didn't see any ambiguity between her and the Prince Regent?Of course, it is also possible that Zhao Jing was too afraid of the regent before, so she didn't pay much attention to the matter in the middle, but since the regent asked himself, then this matter is probably true, but the words Aunt Zhu said later, It's really a bit of a lie.

"The concubine has been ill for several years. It is very unlikely that there will be a place to spare. The prince has all the power in the court. With such an identity, Chunxiu will not really make Chunxiu the regent princess." Zhao Jing thought of Zhou Yi and felt somewhat uncomfortable. taste.She lowered her eyes and stared at the few green leaves floating in the teacup, and remained silent.

Aunt Zhu sighed and said: "Of course I know this truth, but the words of outsiders are scary, especially those of the side concubine's natal family, which one is not powerful and powerful, even if the prince has this idea, he can't help it." We have to weigh the importance. However, some people like to make trouble in it, saying that the prince is not paying attention to the emperor now. He accepted a court lady as his righteous sister before, and now he wants to marry a court lady as his concubine. The possible thing is to completely disregard the face of the royal family."

Zhao Jing listened in a daze for a moment, but she didn't expect that this matter could also be related to her, but these messages were written in a precise manner, and there was no place for people to refute, Zhao Jing's eyebrows couldn't bear it. Twist it up.

These words sound like nothing more than ordinary messages, but after careful taste, there is a strong sense of provocation.Those people outside don't know about the relationship between the regent and the emperor, even the emperor himself doesn't know, if these words are spread to the imperial court, the tension between the two people, which had already been eased, might be aroused again.

"Your Highness will be careful." Zhao Jing didn't know what to say for a moment, she turned to Aunt Zhu and said, "Since Sister Zhu knows about this, does she have a fixed date?" The small sedan chair is too easy to enter, but there is always a saying for the majestic king regent to accept concubines.

"The date hasn't been set yet, and I just heard about it. It's a good thing for sisters to marry well, but for Chunxiu, I don't know why I can't be happy for her in the end." After Aunt Zhu finished speaking, But he laughed again, and said to Zhao Jing: "But I see that you are doing well now, the majestic Mrs. Wu'an Hou, and there is such a good mother-in-law above her, and these little days are very nourishing."

Zhao Jing's cheeks turned red when she was teased by Aunt Zhu, but she still smiled and said, "Sister Zhu made fun of me again. Although I am doing well, there are still a few things that I want to trouble you, Sister Zhu."

As Zhao Jing spoke, she also told Aunt Zhu about Qi Xinrui. She has a wide network of people and knows a lot of people. If there is any suitable marriage for her to introduce, it will always be reliable.

After hearing what Zhao Jing said, Aunt Zhu couldn't help laughing, and joked: "Your old lady is really big-hearted, she dares to pick up any hot potato, she is not afraid of you as a newbie." Is the daughter-in-law taking sour water?"
