Daming Yuanfu

Chapter 2120 General Baikui ([-]) admits
The meeting between Huang Zhiting as the "Chief Wife" and the Empress Dowager Cisheng can be said to have broken up unhappily, which can be seen from the gloomy expression of the Empress Dowager Cisheng when Huang Zhiting bid farewell.

Of course, Huang Zhiting's complexion was not much better.Although it looked calm, being so expressionless in the harem already explained the problem.

Before Huang Zhiting left, Princess Yongning came out to see her off in person.Her Royal Highness the Eldest Princess obviously blamed herself for what happened today, and apologized to Huang Zhiting repeatedly regardless of her status, saying that although she knew about this arrangement, she really didn't know that her mother would talk like this. would agree to such an arrangement.

Unlike when facing the Empress Dowager Cisheng, Huang Zhiting's performance at this time was quite magnanimous.After listening to the princess's explanation and apology, she smiled slightly, and said: "Your Highness, you don't have to be like this. You can't blame the Queen Mother for this matter, but rather, I'm born in a wilderness and don't understand etiquette. If I behave like this today, I'm afraid I will bring trouble to my husband.

As for what His Highness said... In fact, what the empress said just now was very true. Since Gao Luo is the son of the husband and has not changed his surname so far, then I am his aunt, so I should naturally consider his future.It is his blessing to be the prince's accompanying student just like his father. I am only happy about this and have no other intentions. Your Highness can rest assured on this point. "

The eldest princess hesitated to speak, hesitated for a moment, and finally sighed: "Mrs. Hou, I know that our mother and son owe you a lot. I wanted to apologize to you personally a long time ago, but... I just don't know how to say it. But please believe that I will always be grateful to Mrs. Hou for her generosity, and I will never do anything that hurts you intentionally.

As for Madam Hou's so-called 'bringing misfortune to your husband' just now, this is absolutely impossible, but as long as I can still speak in front of my mother, I will never allow such a situation to happen. "

Huang Zhiting listened to her quietly, and looked at her seriously, as if recalling something, she suddenly said with emotion: "Your Highness, don't feel guilty, you don't owe me anything. Speaking of which, for the misfortune you encountered back then, My husband once explained it to me in detail, and I felt regretful and even angry after listening to it.

As for your husband, he always felt that he was also responsible for that incident at the beginning, so later... In short, he owes you a lot.As for me, since I entered Gao's house as the main wife, my husband's loss is my loss. Therefore, since my husband wanted me to cover up the matter of Gao Luo's identity last time, I immediately agreed.

The reason why I was not angry just now was not because this matter was unbearable, but because it happened suddenly, and no one mentioned it to me before the incident, so I felt that this move was a bit deceitful..."

When Huang Zhiting said this, her eyes unconsciously showed a bit of coldness, which made people think that she was a general who had held a heavy army for a long time. Hundreds of thousands of troops had been wiped out in front of her for many years.

How could such a person be an ordinary woman, and how could he treat her like an ordinary woman and judge her behavior?
The eldest princess apologized again: "Thousands of mistakes, all my faults. If my sister is really angry, I will go back to the Marquis Mansion with my sister and let her punish me."

Huang Zhiting was stunned, especially when she called herself "sister", Huang Zhiting even suspected that she had heard it wrong, but looking at the earnest appearance of the eldest princess, it was obvious that she did not really hear it wrong, she really said so.

Now it was Huang Zhiting's turn to hesitate, not because of anything else, but because the phrase "sister" made her difficult to explain.

Because of her family background, Huang Zhiting has always hoped to behave more in line with Han Li's requirements for a regular wife, so she has always hoped that Gao Pragmatic will take more concubines, so as to show that she is never "envious".However, Gao Wushi has no interest in this, so far no one has really been persuaded by her to take a concubine, not even Liu Xin should be counted among them.

As for Meng Gu Zhezhe and Narita Kaifei, the reason why the two daughters were able to enter Gao's family was more because they met Gao Yushi's political needs at the time, and they became Gao Yushi's concubine for the purpose of marriage, and they had nothing to do with her .For this kind of situation, Huang Zhiting often has some headaches.

However, regarding the issue of the eldest princess of Yongning, Huang Zhiting has always been somewhat conflicted in her heart.It's not that she is "jealous" or that she has any opinions on the eldest princess, but that she feels that the identity of the eldest princess is a huge hidden danger to her husband.

In particular, Princess Yongning is no ordinary princess.Not only was she the emperor's younger sister, she was also an eldest princess who was at least nominally a widow.

With the status of Princess Yongning, if it is revealed that Gao Wushi has a long-term affair with her, and even the two have children, it will inevitably cause huge waves in the political circles of the court and the scholars.

If one is not done well, the prestige that my husband has built up over the years will be greatly affected. As for the official career... If there is such a big scandal, I am afraid that even the emperor will not be able to keep it?At least Huang Zhiting thinks so.

Therefore, she has always been opposed to the relationship between her husband and the eldest princess. Although due to her identity and position, she did not express it clearly to her husband, but she believes that with her husband's intelligence, it is impossible not to see it.

However, even so, the husband still did not make any changes.If there is anything Huang Zhiting can be gratified about, it is that the husband is still sensible - at least he doesn't often go to the Princess Mansion to meet the Eldest Princess.But, that's all.

In short, she did feel sorry for what happened to the eldest princess back then, and she was quite sympathetic, but she did not forget the danger because of this.But now, the eldest princess lowered her face and apologized repeatedly, and even called herself "sister" regardless of her status-this meant that she put herself in the status of a concubine-this made Huang Zhiting very embarrassed.

Because of Taizu Zhu Yuanzhang's regulations back then, although the princesses of the Ming Dynasty had no real power and could not even interfere with politics at will like the princesses of the Tang Dynasty, the status of the princesses was very high at the same time.

Compared with ministers, any minister is a "minister" in front of the princess, and there is a clear distinction between monarch and minister.In the ancestral system established by Zhu Yuanzhang, no courtier was allowed to disrespect a princess.

But now, as the emperor's younger sister, Princess Yongning is willing to do so, it is difficult for Huang Zhiting to find a reason to reject her.

Huang Zhiting has not met the eldest princess a few times in the past, and occasionally met in the ceremony and never had a close communication, so she is actually relatively unfamiliar with the eldest princess.At this moment, Huang Zhiting couldn't help staring at the eldest princess seriously, only to see that this noble highness lowered his head slightly, and even trembled slightly.

"Alas..." Huang Zhiting sighed, stretched out her hand to support His Royal Highness Fuchang Princess, and said with a wry smile, "Why does Your Highness have to do this? As I said earlier, His Highness is not at fault for this matter."

Princess Yongning was unmoved, but insisted: "It was caused by Luo Er, that is, it was caused by me. How can I be innocent? If I have made a mistake, my sister will naturally punish me."

Having said that, Huang Zhiting knew that what the eldest princess insisted on was not "punishment", but the title "sister".In other words, what she wants is to admit her to herself.

Huang Zhiting was also a little moved for a while, the eldest princess condescended to admit her, naturally not because she could really do anything to her, but because she really cared about getting the Gao family's approval.

She didn't have to, but she wanted to.Huang Zhiting sighed secretly in her heart, as if she was convincing herself, she thought: at least her feelings for the master are not fake.

"My sister doesn't need to take responsibility. Since the matter is a misunderstanding, it's over when it's over." Huang Zhiting finally admitted the eldest princess's "sister" status, but she didn't want to talk any more. She just looked at the sky pretendingly, and continued: " It's getting late, I'm afraid the gate of the palace will be closed soon... Besides, the Empress Dowager still needs your troubles to make things right, so let's talk about it later."

Hearing Huang Zhiting's "sister" call out, Princess Yongning was really relieved. She only felt that although today's incident was a bit twists and turns, at least the final result was good, and she finally lived up to her low profile.

Thinking of this, she sincerely appreciated Huang Zhiting's generosity, and sincerely bowed her body and said, "Don't worry, sister, the queen mother has her own younger sister to make peace with, and Gao Lang will not be implicated... Sister, younger sister will send you out of the palace."

Huang Zhiting waved her hand slightly, and said: "There is no need to send me off, the palace is also far away, you will waste time by sending me here and there, you should go and persuade the Queen Mother to appease her anger first."

Seeing Huang Zhiting's insistence, the eldest princess had no choice but to agree, but still politely sent her out of the Compassion Palace, and waited for her to go far before turning back, suppressing the excitement in her heart to "persuade the queen mother to calm down".

Huang Zhiting was not in such a good mood, she just walked out of the palace without saying a word, and got into the carriage of Nanning Marquis Mansion.When she returned to Hou Mansion, she didn't answer the servants who greeted her, but went back to her backyard in silence.

When Gao Wushi heard that Huang Zhiting was back, he was relieved and ordered the meal to be served.But after waiting for a while, he didn't see his wife come to the restaurant, so he couldn't help being a little surprised, and sent someone to check, only to find out that Huang Zhiting went back to the bedroom directly.

This is quite rude in Daming's family, especially in the upper class family.However, Gao Wushi knows Huang Zhiting's heart, she has always demanded herself with strict Chinese etiquette, how could she be rude in such a matter?So there must be something wrong with it, or something must have happened in the palace just now.

At the moment, only Meng Gu Zhezhe was waiting with him in the restaurant, and the children all made an exception and ate ahead of time because of his order.So Gao Wushi nodded to Meng Gu Zhezhe and said, "I'll go and see what's going on."

Meng Gu Zhezhe bowed obediently and said, "Yes, master."

She has always been known for being submissive in Gao's family. Unless Gao Yushi or Huang Zhiting asks for it, she will not take the initiative to express her opinions, and she will never ask about things she shouldn't ask, so Gao Yushi doesn't say much, just slightly Nodding, she got up and went to find Huang Zhiting.

However, after Gao Wushi left, Meng Gu Zhezhe showed a rare look of doubt.It seems that she is not really not at all curious.
