son-in-law

Chapter 694

I don't know what stimulated Cao Yuzan to let her act in this play, but her performance with rich voice and emotion really left a deep impression on Su Yu.

Realizing that Cao Yuzan has been pushed to a desperate situation, she will use all means at this time.Su Yu believed that she really had a group of peerless assassins under her command. Even if she didn't kill people but snatched the children away, it would be enough for Su Yu to drink a pot.

Cao Yuzan made a fuss for more than half an hour, which made Su Yu a little tired.Sitting in the car sent by Cao Yuzan, Su Yu couldn't be happier either.And the little widow was a bit picky too, only sending a car, not a horse.

But this carriage is really good, it is made by a famous craftsman in the manufacturing office, it is wide and strong, with rails at the four corners, it can stand four soldiers.There are spearmen, shieldmen, archers, and crossbowmen, just like a chariot.

And the compartment of this car is simply a small mobile room, which is much more spacious than the previous parallel car. Three people can lie flat in the car without feeling cramped. From Su Yu's point of view, it looks like a big bed.

A four-horse cart is called a si, but now it uses two horses to go back. Fortunately, the two big fat and strong horses drove back to the Qin Palace without panting.

To say that these two big Hua horses were given by Ting'er, and they don't feel that they are out of grade after using them now.

"Yi Li Wang Du Ji" has a cloud: the emperor drives six, the princes drive five, the ministers drive four, the doctor three, the scholar two, and the common people one.

But the Liang Dynasty did not stipulate this way, and it was inconvenient for Ma too much to move.Oversized cars are mostly used for ceremonial activities, but parallel cars are often used when driving out.Tang Linger's four big lilies often chirped and ran around because the princess liked to show off.

But now the princess is not in the mood to show off. Although Princess Taichang promised not to pursue Feng Yu and Kong Ting's affairs, she has become very concerned about the third concubine.

Today, Princess Taichang sent a servant girl in brocade clothes to tell Tang Linger that Feng Yu and Kong Ting's ranking will be revoked, and the third side concubine who is about to enter the door is the first side concubine of the Qin Palace.

Tang Ling'er felt awkward, but she agreed, but in the afternoon, Princess Taichang's maid in brocade clothes came to tell Tang Linger again: Princess Taichang has confirmed that this side concubine is the nineteenth lady of the Ximen family, Ximen Wanting.

On that list, Ximen Wanting has the best conditions in all aspects. With her status, she is suitable to be King Qin's concubine.

If Ximen Wanting is willing to stay in Ximen's house, Ximen Wanting is very likely to become the next Dacheng Princess of the Ximen family when Ximen Gui, the princess of Chengfeng who is over half a hundred years old, passes away.

But Ximen Wanting doesn't seem to be very interested in the position of the princess, as if she is possessed by evil, she insists on being Su Yu's side concubine.

In order to become this side concubine, Miss Wanting worked hard and even wrote to Tang Linger, but Tang Linger didn't reply her.So she ran to Taichang Princess Mansion to specialize in Zhao Yu.

Zhao Yu's final choice depends on who is closer to her, who has the strongest appeal, and who will benefit the princess the most.Although Zhao Yan is not very greedy for money, who has a grudge against money?
Under the same circumstances, those who take the initiative to send more money are more popular.As for the strong demands of the lawsuit, which girl can be stronger than Ximen Wanting?Speaking of interpersonal relationships, Ximen Wanting's mother is Princess Taichang's eleventh younger sister. What relationship is closer than this?

To sum up, it is not surprising that Ximen Wanting won in the end.

But this punctured Princess Chang'an's lungs. She was still in confinement, and the princess drove to Daoguangfang against the cold wind to find her aunt for comment.

Princess Taichang sat on the couch with a gloomy face. After hearing Tang Linger's appeal, she immediately said in a choked voice: "Linger, I have promised Feng Yu and Kong Ting, isn't that enough? Why, what do you think? Accepting such a side concubine is an honorable thing for the King of Qin? Feng Yu came from a humble background, not to mention the side concubine, she is not even qualified to be a beauty. And that Kong Ting is the result of King Qin's promiscuity outside, she is a bandit My daughter. With such a side concubine, would you feel honored to take it out? Look at the houses of other princes, how can there be such a mess like yours? Sometimes it is inconvenient for the main concubine to go out, and the side concubine takes the place of the main concubine to participate in ceremonial matters. The side concubines sent here are all noble daughters, but you sent a grass-roots maid, a bandit daughter? Auntie, everything I did was not for your own good? Why don’t you know my aunt’s kindness? Tang Zhen is not at home now , if he was at home, surely he wouldn't allow you to mess around like this?"

Tang Linger said: "Auntie is painstaking, Linger knows it. Linger came this time, not to refute Auntie's face, but just felt that this matter was done too hastily. Other people's concubines are not all at once. The most important thing is that this is the daughter of the Ximen family, so my aunt must know why I must object."

Zhao Yan raised her head and said: "Ling'er, I understand what you mean, you just want the Tang family to monopolize King Qin. But don't make a mistake, King Qin belongs to my Zhao family, and it's up to our Zhao family to marry a daughter-in-law." The family has the final say. I have made concessions twice in a row, and I will never give in to this third step. According to the royal family's rules for marrying a prince to a concubine, the main concubine should be from Daoguangfang Gongxun Street, and the three side concubines are Three families, Tang, Meng, and Ximen. Now that your Tang family has seized the opportunity, are you still not satisfied? Now I only sent one Ximen Wanting to Qin Wangfu, and I have taken good care of your family. If you don’t want to back down, I will Get rid of those two unqualified side concubines, and arrange for you the Meng family and Gongxun Street girl!"

At this point, Tang Linger was already a little angry, stood up and said: "If the princess insists on going her own way, don't blame Tang Linger for not giving face. This matter is not up to you. If you must make the decision, go to the Queen Mother and see if the Queen Mother supports you. You still support me! If the queen mother doesn't support me, I will ask my brother to talk to her!"

"You...!" Princess Taichang rushed to the top of her forehead angrily, her face flushed, "Ling'er, have you forgotten even the most basic etiquette? Let me tell me who I am! Who am I to you! How dare you talk to me like this! If your mother is alive, will you allow me?"

Tang Ling'er and Princess Taichang both blushed, and finally Princess Chang'an walked away in a huff.

……

When Su Yu returned home, he didn't see the princess, so he went to the backyard to find Feng Yu and asked where Kong Ting was.

Feng Yu hugged the little poodle and said: "Kong Ting hasn't passed the house yet. The princess said it is not suitable to live in the palace. Let her go home first, and then take her over in a sedan chair after performing ceremonies in the future."

"In addition, the princess also said that Ting'er is not pregnant yet, so let's not worry about it. It's better to wait until next spring and summer. The concubine thought to herself, the princess didn't mean to embarrass Miss Tinger on purpose, but just hoped to use Tinger Delay the matter. The second concubine has not passed the door yet, so the third concubine should delay it even more."

It seemed difficult for Feng Yu to complete this identity change. She still called Tang Ling'er the princess, not the princess.But in front of the princess, she still called herself a "servant" instead of a "concubine".

Feng Yu's performance was in line with the princess' psychological expectations, and Feng Yu was a role model for the later side concubine.It is said that Kong Ting is quite considerate, and she dare not change her name in front of Tang Linger, and she still calls Tang Linger her foster mother.

When Su Yu was chatting with Feng Yu, he heard that the princess had returned, so Su Yu left Qingzhu Xiaozhu to go to Xiaofeng Pavilion, and saw the princess's face was pale, as if sick.The princess passed by the study and went straight back to the bedroom, looking very tired, she fell on the bed and closed her eyes to rest, with a click from time to time in her throat.

This is not the princess's style. In the past, when she came home from outside, the first thing she did was to take a shower and change clothes, but today she was not in that mood.

Su Yu waved his hand to let Wang Xun and others back out, and he sat by the bed to grab the Princess's hand.Her hands are getting fatter, the back of the hand is red, but the fingers are pale.

"Have you had a fight with your aunt?"

Tang Ling'er closed her eyes and said nothing.

"Just wait for me to come back and discuss it." Su Yu sighed: "I will meet Cao Yuzan in the apse today. I promised her one condition, and she also promised me one condition. I said, if the princess is too long in the future Then go to her and tell her about the selection of concubines in the Qin Palace, and ask her to help resist it."

At this time Tang Linger opened her eyes: "It's useless, the three side concubines must be chosen, Cao Yuzan can stop it for a while, but not forever. This matter will have to be faced sooner or later."

Su Yu stretched out his hand to cup the temple owner's temples, but said nothing.

Su Yu originally wanted to coax the Taichang Princess to do these things, but now it seems that Tang Ling'er was too impatient and disrupted Su Yu's rhythm of doing things.

But this is not a hopeless situation, Su Yu sat there thinking for a while, then stood up suddenly: "I'm going to see Taichang Princess."

Tang Linger sat up: "What are you going to say?"

Su Yu didn't answer directly, but said: "I promised Ling'er three conditions, the first of which was to harden me. I agreed then, and now I will fulfill my promise!"

Su Yu looked a little angry, but Tang Linger felt uneasy, and reached out to grab Su Yu's sleeve: "I just quarreled with my aunt, if you quarrel again, we won't be able to see each other in the future."

Su Yu blinked, turned around and said with a smile: "Then I won't quarrel, just talk to her."

Later, Su Yu wanted the princess to write a letter of apology, but the princess refused to write it.So Su Yu asked Lin Wan to imitate Tang Linger's handwriting, and wrote a letter of apology, and found that Lin Wan's imitation was not very similar, so he tried someone else, unexpectedly, the little girl Tong Xi was a genius at imitating handwriting.She imitated the princess's handwriting, which could almost make the fake one look like the real one.

It's no wonder that she imitated Wan Yanqing's handwriting to write her homework, and even the Ph. D. students couldn't see the clue.

Suddenly it snowed heavily, and King Qin braved the snow to meet Princess Taichang.

Her Royal Highness was furious at Tang Linger. When Su Yu saw her, the old princess was lying on the couch moaning and cursing.It wasn't until she read the letter of apology that she sat up: "If you say it, Yu'er is sensible. Look outside, it's snowing so much, Yu'er just wanted to deliver a letter?"

Su Yu nodded and said: "After Ling'er came home, she regretted so much that she couldn't even eat, and she just said I was sorry, Your Royal Highness. I saw her sad, and I thought that my aunt must be sad too. Don't say it's snowing, it's just a knife, nephew I want to see my aunt too."

"Hmph, don't try to coax me with clever words." The princess scolded, and then changed the subject: "You are the most like your father, you glib little thing. Tell me, you came here in the middle of the night with the snow on your back, what is the matter?" ?”

"Uh... just to see my aunt."

"If you say that again, I will ignore you."

"Uh... nephew wants to discuss something with you, can you not choose Ximen Wanting? Nephew thinks she..."

"No, my aunt has promised her."
