Dong Gong Mei

Chapter 25 This marriage is not suitable

Grandma Sun was also very surprised here.

I thought she was a rebellious wild girl, but I didn't expect to be so generous and sensible.

She has trained so many people in her hands, and she deeply knows a truth, that is, the country is easy to change, and the nature is difficult to change.A person's cunning temper, even if she uses her whole body, it is impossible to completely correct it.

Furthermore, she has a superb ability to penetrate people's hearts, and she can see through at a glance who is genuine and pure and who is hypocritical.

This Wei sister, of course, has some shortcomings, such as being a little stubborn in her bones, but it is not a big problem. The most rare thing is that this frankness and sincerity makes people hate it.

Mammy Sun put away the hostility completely: "Miss don't dislike the old slave's nagging, the old slave will definitely teach the young lady wholeheartedly."

Several big maids saw their hearts stunned: This grandma is a female official who served the queen mother in the palace!To be so appreciative of the young lady, it can be seen that the young lady is really worth following!

At the moment, Rong'antang was exceptionally cold and quiet. The little maids were guarding outside the black lacquer sunflower-patterned fan.

Mammy Zhou came with a tray with red lacquer painted with golden begonia flowers. The little maids looked happy and made a gesture from a distance.

Seeing that she was getting closer, she whispered: "Master Xiang is inside, the old lady is very unhappy."

Nanny Zhou nodded and signaled for the little maids to step back first.

The little maids let out a sigh of relief and disappeared silently at the end of the veranda.

Mammy Zhou sorted out her emotions, gently lifted the curtain, bypassed the Four Seasons Ruyi screen carved with agarwood wood, and entered the interior.

The air in the room seemed to freeze.

The old lady and the grandfather were sitting on the pear wood engraved chairs by the window.

Mother Zhou put the tray on the black lacquer table, took two tea cups with blue and white branches, poured the tea lightly with her hands and feet, nodded gently, and then quietly withdrew.

It was getting dark early in winter, and at the beginning of time, the lampposts in the yard were already lit.

Mammy Zhou was guarding under the porch, and the helpless voice of the prime minister was vaguely heard in her ears: "There are so many cases of impeachment from the Censor, Your Majesty proposes to marry us to the palace at this time. It's neither if your son agrees, nor if you don't agree."

"It's your fault." The old lady's voice contained a hint of condemnation, "Since you have already settled with that Shen Yuqing for the rest of your life, why didn't you tell me? No matter how much I object, I will try to take the child back. It is raised in the house, and our family does not lack this silver rice!"

"Since I couldn't recognize the child at the time, this time I shouldn't let the child's temper. She stopped your sedan chair on the street, and you really recognized it! Knowing that the Queen Mother's party members are watching closely, you Don't take it seriously. If the child is from another family, it's fine, but her background still involves the Shen family."

The more the old lady talked, the more serious the situation became, but when she saw the tense expression on her son's face, she couldn't bear to continue scolding.

He eased his emotions and persuaded: "According to the mother's meaning, it's better to see what the attitude of King Jiangxia is. If the palace also has the idea of ​​marrying our family, it would not be difficult for our family to marry a girl in the past... "

Zhao Ziyi took a sip from the tea cup and was silent for a long time before slowly saying: "Mother, needless to say, this marriage is not suitable."

"What's not suitable or not." The old lady smiled and looked at her son: "Then you will let the Censor Station go on like this?"

"That's better than joking about the marriage of the children." Zhao Ziyi's face was gloomy, "The king of Jiangxia relies on the queen mother, and our Zhao family relies on the emperor, and the grievances between the queen mother and the emperor are deep and cannot be repaired. Wangfu, when the two palaces fight, how will she handle herself?"

"You also know that the two palaces are at odds." The old lady glanced at her son, "At this juncture, you reject the emperor's proposal to marry, what do you want the emperor to think? I'm not talking about you for my mother, you have always been a calm and self-controlled person. , but when it comes to Miss Wei's affairs, it's like a different person, indecisive and indecisive!"

In the end, it was a bit harsh.

"Mother, you don't need to hold on to Sister Wei all the time." Zhao Ziyi's face sank, and she said firmly: "Your Majesty is not well, the Prince has no family, the Empress Dowager and the Censor Station beat me up, just to sing the opposite scene with His Majesty. ."

He said with a sneer: "Now I don't take the call, what can they do? Who is not like a mirror in their hearts, who can't pretend to be deaf and dumb?"

"To put it lightly, you are now the prime minister under one person and above ten thousand people." The old lady restrained her smile and said sternly: "Public opinion is like a knife, killing people without blood, the most important thing now is to calm down the public opinion storm. If Shi Tai keeps making such a fuss, you don't care if your reputation doesn't matter, but if you pull up the radish with mud and turn over the old case of the Taixue, I am afraid that the entire Chang'an City will be turned upside down."

Zhao Ziyi was startled.

Seeing that her son was silent, the old lady sighed heavily and said earnestly: "Our Zhao family has reached this height, it is impossible to go back, and it is impossible to stand still, there is only one way..."

She took a sip of tea, moistened her throat, and said faintly, "Either choose to stand in line or choose an alliance."

Zhao Ziyi picked up the teacup and gently brushed off the tea foam with a small lid: "Mother, I don't agree with the marriage with the palace, except because King Jiangxia is backed by the Queen Mother, more importantly, I don't want the child to marry into the royal family. Do you feel good about your sister entering the palace? Companion is like a tiger, and if you are not careful, it will lead to an abyss. Outsiders see her as a favored concubine Shu, but as a mother, don’t you know how much grievance she has suffered?”

When it comes to her daughter, the corners of the old lady's eyes are a little wet.

Zhao Ziyi's voice softened a little: "The main reason is that few girls in our family are not suitable for marrying into the royal family. The two children on the third brother's side are too young, and the remaining sister Yu is very happy, while sister Yan is dignified and calm, but the pattern is not A little smaller. Not to mention Miss Wei, how can she adapt to the complex environment of the palace after living in the countryside for more than ten years."

The old lady frowned for a while, nodded and said, "You are right. But in a family like ours, children always have to take responsibility. Even if they don't marry the royal family, they have to deal with the nobles of the aristocratic family. Have you always been protecting me like this?"

After saying that, he glanced at his son, and when he saw that he was thoughtful, he continued: "That's why the mother still means that, don't rush to reject Your Majesty, just say what King Jiangxia means, if King Jiangxia doesn't have this idea, Just let him refuse. If the prince thinks it is suitable, then choose a suitable one to marry. "

Zhao Ziyi was silent.
