The Evil King's First-Class Concubine

Chapter 157 Evil has evil retribution 1
"Father, how did this happen? Eldest brother, it's rare for him to take a break, and now the heirs of the East Palace are the most important thing. In my opinion, it's better to leave it to Brother Sanhuang! Brother Sanhuang is a steady man with a meticulous mind. Only with the help of Brother Sanhuang, the son can return to the palace smoothly, I believe he will be able to handle this matter well."

Mu Yunshen, who had been observing the prince secretly, noticed his expression, and said immediately.No matter what, he still can't arouse the prince's suspicion. If you are a poor Taoist, you might as well let the third prince go.

Ever since the third prince committed crimes and meritorious service in Xiang'an City and allowed Mu Yunshen to return to the capital safely, he has been in the state of an invisible person.If it wasn't for Mu Yunshen's mention, Emperor Xingwen might have forgotten the existence of this son.

"Xiao Qi is right, let the third child go. It's been so long, the third child should also hone his skills."

The matter was decided so happily. Emperor Xingwen was busy with state affairs every day, so naturally he couldn't keep it all the time, so he told Mu Yunshen to take a good rest, and then left.It was Mu Yunbin who had a lot of ups and downs, because of what Mu Yunshen said just now, he finally let go of the doubts in his heart.

"Xiaoqi, you must not be so careless in the future, and let the guards follow you at any time so that you don't get hurt again."

"Okay, brother, I understand, this is not an accident! It's getting late, you should go back and be with the emperor's wife, I'm still waiting to hug my little nephew soon!" Mu Yunshen said indifferently, saying to He winked and teased.

"You." Mu Yunbin intentionally showed a dumbfounding expression, and gave him a doting look: "Big Brother Guang, why didn't you get married earlier, so as not to let the queen mother worry about you all the time!"

"This king just doesn't like those vulgar fans! Besides, there is still you, big brother. As long as you have many children and grandchildren, the queen mother will naturally not force me, right?"

"Both of you are worried! The queen mother really can't do anything with you!"

Empress Chu spoke reproachfully. For a while, the atmosphere of the mother and son was harmonious, and nothing abnormal could be seen at all.

When the prince finally left, Empress Chu put away her smiling face and looked at Mu Yunshen with a sullen face: "What happened? Xiao Qi, don't try to hide it from your mother."

Seeing Empress Chu's expression of insisting on getting to the bottom of it, Mu Yunshen couldn't help rubbing her forehead helplessly: "Okay, Empress Mother, let me tell you the truth, my son is going to see your future daughter-in-law. She involved When it comes to the affairs of the Du family, it happened that the crown prince arranged it secretly, and I used some tricks to disrupt the prince's plan. I'm afraid he is suspicious of me now!"

"But queen mother, don't worry, what I just said in front of the father, the doubts in his heart must have disappeared. The most important thing now is to quickly marry your daughter-in-law. Queen mother, you have to help me !"

"You're talking about the Xie family, a fifth-rank official, the daughter of a down-and-out Marquis? She's also a bereaved mother and daughter. Isn't this family background a bit too low? Xiaoqi, the queen mother didn't miss you and like you on purpose. It’s just that your current situation is not optimistic. If it was before, the crown prince was still a good brother to you. Now you must find a strong backer. Only by marrying an aristocratic daughter can you stabilize your life. The status, the ability to compete with the crown prince!"

Empress Chu frowned, Mu Yunshen had teased her before, she thought that the girl was really good, although her family background was a bit poor.But after thinking about it carefully, it feels inappropriate.Now Mu Yunshen has no power of his own at all, and the Chu family will only become the crown prince's reliance.

"Xiaoqi, the empress mother knows your difficulties. Anyway, your body can't touch many women. Then the girl from the Xie family, you take her as your side concubine, and then marry a noble girl from a famous family. It's fine to put it on the table. The queen mother has already met for you, the power of the Lin family in the court is second only to the Su family, and Lin Ze's only daughter, Lin Sijin, has long admired you..."

"That's enough, Queen Mother!" Mu Yunshen interrupted her, and seeing Empress Chu's hurt face, she said guiltily, "Queen Mother, I know you're doing it for my own good, but don't even think about it, the Crown Prince would be willing." Do you want me to marry the daughter of an aristocratic family? And don’t forget, the princess is also the daughter of the second wife of the Lin family! What’s more, Lin Ze would not agree! The Lin family has never participated in the battle for the heir apparent for hundreds of years The Lin family will not drag the entire Lin family into this muddy water for the sake of one daughter! Now that the emperor father is still there, the crown prince dare not act rashly. You have to believe that your son has the ability to establish his own power, and relying on others is unreliable. "

These aristocratic families are big families that have lasted for a hundred years, and their power is spread all over the court, so there is no need to participate in the struggles of these princes.Because no matter who becomes the emperor, the aristocratic family can guarantee that their status will not be shaken.Once you stand in the team, you will win and lose, and it is not worth taking such a big risk.

The reason why the Su family and the fifth prince are so energetic is not because the prince is indeed "mediocre", and he has the heart of disobedience if he doesn't like his father.But even if this is the case, the Su family will not brazenly say that they want to abolish the crown prince and establish the fifth prince. Even if the crown prince wins in the end, the fifth prince may be demoted to a fiefdom and never return, but the Su family will not have a prince. Big loss.Such a big family involves too many people, unless the Su family has made a substantive act of treason.

Except for those second-rate aristocratic families and down-and-out offshoots who want to go up to a higher level, they use their entire clan's strength to follow a certain force, the six major aristocratic families with real background are not moved at all.They will only be loyal to the person who finally ascended the throne, and throw an olive branch at the most critical time.Therefore, marriage is not very useful at all, it is nothing more than maintaining a superficial balance.

"Mother, Lin Sijin's love for his son is not only known to you, I know, I am afraid most people are well aware of it. But even if this is the case, have you seen Lin Ze show that he has thought about it?" Do you mean marrying the royal family? This time the crown prince is drafting, except that the Chu family intends to let their daughters enter the palace, look at these aristocratic families, they will at most send some daughters from their offshoots!"

What Mu Yunshen said made Empress Chu speechless. She is a queen of a country and has presided over many drafts.Except for the crown prince and concubine and the emperor, these great families would arrange for their daughters to enter the palace, and for the rest of the time, the daughters of side branches were the majority.For example, she herself was the first concubine chosen by Emperor Xingwen, who was still the crown prince, and the one who entered the palace with her was also the daughter of a descendant of each family.If she and His Majesty hadn't met in advance before the general election, it would really not be her turn to take the position of queen.

Although it is said that the imperial power is supreme, in fact, the aristocratic family and the royal family are in a mutual restraint relationship.The previous dynasties changed and perished a century ago, but the aristocratic family still existed. Even at that time, the aristocratic family was proud of the princes and disdainful of royal marriages!If it weren't for the founding ancestors who concentrated the imperial power and tried their best to suppress the family, the royal family would have no prestige at all.

"Besides, Queen Mother, there is Uncle Cheng behind my son. With the Su family and the fifth prince restraining him, the crown prince will not care about my son now. You, don't worry so much about it! As long as mother is good Yes, enjoy the family happiness, and leave the rest to my son!"

In order to convince Empress Chu, Mu Yunshen has worn out his lips. The only two women he cares about in this life, even if they are inevitably involved in this dispute, he must ensure their safety.

"That's enough! The queen mother can't say anything about you, so you can do whatever you want! Also, you said before that you want the queen mother to help. Please explain clearly what it is!"

Empress Chu sighed helplessly, feeling a little sour in her heart.The son couldn't help it, why didn't she know that Mu Yunshen deliberately exaggerated some things in order to marry that woman as his concubine!Forget it, since her son likes it, why would she bother to be that villain.

Early in the morning, Xie Xinyue got into the carriage and went to An Yi Hou Mansion.The old lady's condition became more and more serious, and she was still on her deathbed.Xie Anhua panicked and begged to come to the door again.

"Yue'er, Dad can't help it. Dad has arranged all the requests you said according to your instructions. But now your grandmother's body is really unbearable, and Dad is afraid. Yue'er, you just Let's go with dad first!"

Xie Anhua shamelessly started arguing directly at Huangxiang, because Xie Xinyue had to come here first because she was afraid of delaying her previous plan.Although the old lady is hateful, she really can't die now.After all, she is also the daughter of the Xie family. Once the old lady is gone, she herself will have to keep mourning for her grandmother for three years.

In fact, Xie Xinyue didn't care, but when she thought of Mu Yunshen's waiting for so long, and another three years, she didn't know how many changes would happen.Her status is not high in the first place, so why bother to continue to burden him.Xie Anhua also expected this, so he dared to come up to force him.It's just that due to King Jin's power, he didn't dare to go too far.

"Miss, it was my mother who was wrong in the past. I was the one who had no conscience and deliberately bribed Miao Kong to slander your reputation! I beg you to show mercy and save our family! As long as you are willing to come back, Miss, let me do it." Anything!" With humiliation in her eyes, Tang knelt down in front of Xie Xinyue and begged.

Even though the maids and servants had been separated, in front of the Xie family's aunt and children, Tang knelt down like a sinner and begged for mercy. This kind of shame and shame made her wish she could find a hole in the ground and crawl in.Kneeling to the sky and kneeling to her parents, but she wanted to kneel down with her stepdaughter, completely putting her majesty as a housewife on the ground for her to step on!
Tang's figure seemed to be crumbling, so pitiful, Xie Jinyuan, Xie Jinrui, and Xie Xinqin were trembling all over, gritted their teeth and looked at Xie Xinyue viciously.

"Are you enough? Mother, she apologized to you in such a low voice. Why did you deliberately make things difficult for her? She is also your mother. If you do this, aren't you afraid of thunder?"

Xie Jinrui was young and impulsive, and finally couldn't help but began to reprimand him. Xie Anhua's expression changed drastically, and he came up and slapped him hard.

"Evil, shut up! Who told you to talk to your sister like that?"

Xie Xinyue sneered, and gave Xie Jinrui a cold look, with a look of contempt on her face.

"She is not my mother. How can any mother treat her children like this? I know you are not willing to be convinced, and I don't care. In fact, you don't want such a natal family. Rare for your support in the future. On the contrary, you are begging me now, and you must have an attitude of begging for help. Over the years, you have used the dowry left by my mother to pamper you and live a luxurious life. But I, I was expelled to the temple and lived like a beggar. You have taken all my things, so you are not allowed to take them back? Speaking of thunder and lightning, this person should also be Tang and you!"
