The High Gate Mistress of Rebirth

A few years ago, Da Qi was poor and weak, so Li Ling was exempted from the three-year tribute. Now, because of the emperor's hard work, the country has gradually become stronger in all aspects, and its development momentum can be described as leaps and bounds.

In order to demonstrate the might of God, this year, Li Ling resumed the tributes of the vassal kings from all over the country.

As soon as the first thin snow fell in the capital, feudal lords from all over the world came to the capital one after another.

The first one to arrive in the capital was the Jiangdong Murong family.

The Murong family is the natal family of the old lady of the Duke's mansion, and they have always been close to the Duke's mansion. Now that Li Ling, the former son of the Duke's mansion, has become the emperor, the Murong family's behavior also expresses Jiangdong's support for the new king.

Although the vassal king was not allowed to enter the capital, this time King Murong sent Jiangdong's eldest son Murong Yi, along with Murong Yi came the eldest princess Qingluan, and the couple also brought their eldest son Ning Ge'er.

Murong's family originally had a mansion in Beijing, but Qingluan also had his own princess mansion. Murong Yi originally wanted to stay in his own mansion, but Qingluan wanted to live in the princess mansion, and Murong Yi finally compromised.

The first thing the couple did after settling down in the Princess Mansion was to visit Duke Zhen Guo's Mansion.

The old lady was looking forward to this day day and night, and she was so happy to see her granddaughter that she didn't know what to do, she kept pulling Qingluan to ask questions.

Qingluan has a paranoid personality. Since she married into the Murong Palace, although she has repeatedly conflicted with her husband, jealousy with the concubine, and discord with her mother-in-law, the Murong family still cares about her status as a princess, and King Murong is there for her. To support her, the more important thing is that Murong Yi is the most self-cultivated person, so the Murong family has treated her with the utmost tolerance and love, but people like Qingluan have poor ability to deal with people, always paranoid when thinking about things, and don't know how to be satisfied. .

When she saw the old lady, she vomited bitterly.

Xu Wanning and Pingyang sat on the side, and the two rolled their eyes when they heard it. The old lady also knew her granddaughter's temper, so she just tried to persuade her with nice words.

Xu Wanning heard that Qingluan was picky about Murong's family here, she couldn't understand it, so she changed the subject and asked: "Didn't you bring your eldest cousin's eldest son with you when you came to Beijing this time?" ? Why didn’t you bring it here today?”

When the old lady heard the words, she echoed: "Yes, I haven't seen Yi'er's child yet, why didn't you bring the child here."

When this incident was mentioned, Qingluan's face became even longer, and she replied angrily: "I'm going back to my mother's clan, and that child wasn't my own after all, so why should I bring him here?"

As soon as these words came out, not only the old lady Xu Wanning and Pingyang, the masters, but also the servants serving in the house couldn't help being surprised.

How can there be such a noble lady who treats her stepson without even showing any superficial effort.

The old lady sighed slightly, and persuaded: "Although the child is not your own, but you are her aunt now, the child is still young, if you treat him sincerely, you will not worry about him not being close to you in the future."

"Hmph! I really want to love him, but how can I have such a blessing." Then, Qingluan wiped the corners of his eyes and said angrily: "Grandmother, you don't know. Although I am the child's aunt, the Murong family You don't let me raise that child at all, but you have always raised the son-in-law's sons and daughters under the knees of a concubine."

Qingluan gritted her teeth: "This is what I'm most dissatisfied with about Murong's family. They don't even consider me as their own family member. Hmph! It's really pissing me off!"

For someone with Qingluan's temper, whose family's children can be safely raised by her.

Everyone is a mother, Xu Wanning and Pingyang looked at each other, Pingyang sneered and said nothing, Xu Wanning couldn't help but said: "Perhaps uncle and aunt are worried that you have never had children and have no experience in taking care of children. Such an arrangement."

"The concubine who is currently raising her brothers and sisters has never given birth. What experience does she have? The Murong family is like this, but they don't trust me."

Ping Yang said perfunctorily: "Raising children is also a hard job, in this case, Huang Jie can also be free."

The old lady echoed: "It's also the same reason. It's the most difficult thing to be a natural stepmother. After all, you are also the child's aunt. After all, no one can surpass you."

As she said that, the old lady couldn't help but glanced at Qingluan's belly, and asked: "You have been married for a year, has there been any movement?"

Qingluan replied sullenly and said no.

The old lady sighed: "When you have your own children, you won't care too much about those two children. Grandma knows a doctor who is the best at gynecology. It's rare for you to come to Beijing this time. In a few days, I will let you The doctor will prescribe some good anti-birth medicine for you."

Qingluan nodded, but she still couldn't calm down: "Grandmother, the eldest son of the son-in-law is the future son of Jiangdong. Let this child be raised under someone else's knee. After all, I can't get over this hurdle in my heart."

As she said that, she looked at the old lady and said aggrievedly: "The only person I can rely on is my grandmother, and I ask my grandmother to make the decision for me."

This is a family matter of Murong's family, although the old lady was in a dilemma, she still nodded her head.

After the family banquet, the old lady found Murong Yi and mentioned this matter to him in private.

"Although the children are close to Pang, Qingluan is their aunt after all. Now that Qingluan has been married for a year, the children should be raised by her side."

When Murong Yi heard what the old lady said, he knew it was Qingluan's complaint.

It is indeed against the rules to leave the main wife aside and entrust the children to the concubines to raise them, but he really can't trust Qingluan.

Murong Yi is humble and courteous, he is an out-and-out gentle gentleman, but when it comes to the children left by his late wife, it is his weakness, he will not compromise on children's matters.

After hearing the old lady's words, Murong Yi first gave the old lady a slight salute, and then slowly said: "The great-aunt is the princess's direct grandmother, you should know her temperament better than your grandnephew."

"Yi just wanted to ask my aunt, if it was your own child, would you let Qingluan take care of it?"

No matter how transparent a person is, once they involve their own flesh and blood, they will have selfish motives.

The old lady is no exception, she only cares about her granddaughter, as for the Murong family's flesh and blood, no matter how close they are, naturally they cannot compare to Qingluan's weight in the old lady's heart.

But heartache is heartache, after all, the old lady is not the kind of nonsense and unreasonable person, she waved her hand after hearing Murong Yi's words, and said: "Forget it, just pretend that I didn't say that."

As she said that, she looked at Murong Yi, and told You You worriedly: "Although Qingluan is a bit willful, she is a child who values ​​affection, so you have to treat her well."

Murong Yi smiled, and replied: "Please rest assured, my aunt, since I married her, I will definitely protect her well."
