Houmen's step-wife

Chapter 278
"Mother said last time when she entered the palace, whose daughter wants to enter the palace?" Concubine Hu Gui asked Suyu, the confidant next to her.

"It's the daughter of Uncle Wuqing's Lu family." Suyu replied respectfully.

Concubine Hu Gui couldn't help raising her eyebrows slightly when she heard the words, and said, "Uncle Wu Qing's house?"

Uncle Wu Qing also has real power, and now he is the governor of the Youjun Governor's Mansion, and he can be regarded as her father's subordinate.

Su Yu said: "Exactly."

"When did their family have an extra daughter? How come I haven't heard of it?" Hu Guifei said lightly.

"Your Majesty helps the Empress Dowager to take care of the harem. The palace is busy, so how can you pay attention to such trivial matters? Naturally, I haven't heard of it." Suyu first complimented, but then explained: "This Miss Lu is Uncle Wu Qing The concubine's daughter of the mansion has been weak and sick since she was a child, she has been raised in a deep boudoir, and has never gone out, so very few people know about it."

Concubine Hu Gui nodded, she didn't particularly care about these things, she just wanted to know if the other party could compete for her favor, so she asked, "What does she look like?"

Hearing the words, Suyu first looked around, then leaned forward and said softly: "Madam, in fact, this daughter of Uncle Wuqing's family is not weak and sick as it is rumored outside, but she has hired someone to teach her since she was a child." , not only knows all the etiquette and rules, but also can sing and dance well, she is full of talent, and the most important thing is that she has a stunning appearance, which is by no means inferior to Guo Meiren."

Concubine Hu Gui frowned when she heard this, and said with a sneer, "The Uncle Wuqing's mansion is really ambitious. They actually started training their daughter so early and wanted to send her into the palace to compete for favor!"

Suyu took two steps back, bowed her head and said nothing.

If it was before, Concubine Hu Gui would definitely not agree to let the daughter of Uncle Wuqing's mansion enter the palace. Even when her mother, Mrs. Li Guogong, mentioned this matter to her before she entered the palace, she refused without even listening to it. I don't want to make enemies for myself.

But now, she hesitated.

Moreover, she also knew that her mother would not help Wu Qingbo speak for no reason, so she said: "If I am willing to lead a thousand needles to help a girl from the Lu family enter the palace, how can Wu Qingbo's mansion repay me?"

Su Yu said: "Madam said that Uncle Wuqing's Mansion will try its best to support the eldest prince to become a prince."

Concubine Hu Gui couldn't help being moved when she heard the words, but immediately she sneered and said, "Don't look at what they are saying so swearingly now, but when that Miss Lu enters the palace and becomes pregnant with a dragon seed, they will probably regret it immediately."

Suyu smiled slightly, and said softly: "Don't worry, ma'am, the people in Uncle Wuqing's mansion said that as long as your majesty is willing to let the Lu family's daughter enter the palace, they will let Miss Lu drink sterilization soup before entering the palace, so as to guarantee that she will not give birth to dragons." Heir."

Concubine Hu Gui was greatly shocked, squinting her eyes and said: "The people in Uncle Wuqing's residence really said that? But it doesn't make sense. I don't believe that the daughters they carefully cultivated are just to make wedding dresses for others."

Even though she was skeptical, Concubine Hu Gui was still very moved. Even if Uncle Wuqing's mansion really planned something, she was confident that they would not lose money by stealing chickens.But the benefits she got were real.

As long as that girl from the Lu family has no heirs, no matter how favored she is in the future, she can only rely on herself and the First Prince, but she is not afraid that she will be disobedient.

It's just that the conditions offered by Uncle Wuqing's mansion were too good, which made her feel a little uneasy.

After a while, Concubine Hu Gui's expression calmed down, after all she couldn't make up her mind to let her enter the palace, and said slowly: "This palace still has to carefully consider this matter."

After the banquet, a few more days passed.

The Clan Mansion's treatment of the eldest princess of Shouning has finally come out.

Deprive Shouning Dachang Princess of her princess title, demote her to a commoner, take back the princess mansion and gold book, and no longer enjoy the state salary; deprive her of the imperial title of first-rank Duke and wife, and be imprisoned for life.

However, for the sake of her husband's great military exploits, he was imprisoned in the British government, and he was not allowed to step out of the house for the rest of his life.

The ancestral order of the clan mansion was originally held by the prince. Later, when the prince became a vassal, he took the matter of the meritorious relatives and ministers who also led the clan mansion. Everything is handed over to the Ministry of Rites.

The Clan's House also knew that Emperor Xiande did not want to let Princess Shouning go, moreover, it had already verified the many evil deeds that Princess Shouning had committed over the years.

When Emperor Xiande first came to the throne, it was the time when Princess Shouning was at her happiest. Relying on her own meritorious service, Emperor Xiande did not fully secure her position, so her attitude towards her was still very respectful, which further boosted her popularity. Because of her arrogance, she was even more unscrupulous during that time than she is now, and committed many evil deeds. Now that she is found out, she will naturally not be spared lightly.

The Clan Mansion originally wanted to imprison Princess Shouning directly in the Clan Mansion, but after all, Emperor Xiande still had some old feelings in mind, and since Princess Shouning was getting older, he allowed her to live in England. Spend the rest of his life in the Buddhist hall of the government.

Su Wan couldn't help but smile slightly after hearing what happened to Princess Shouning.

Although the eldest princess of Shouning did not die, she was only imprisoned for life, but Su Wan thought that for the eldest princess, this might be more uncomfortable than killing her directly.

In the past, she was a high-ranking eldest princess who was ignored by everyone, but now, she is just a commoner who can't even get out of the door. She is arrogant and extremely noble. How can she accept such a huge gap?If she can't figure it out all the time, even if she has no worries about food and clothing, she may die in depression before long.

Su Wan didn't sympathize with her, because the things Shouning Dachang Princess did to her made her completely unable to sympathize with her. She couldn't forgive the people who wanted to kill her again and again. Of course, Shouning Dachang Princess would definitely It is not rare for her to forgive.

A few days ago, His Majesty also officially issued an imperial decree, depriving the title of Lord Baoling, and at the same time ordered Duke Ying to discipline her strictly. The reputation of Lord Baoling in the capital is quite stinky.

Su Yao, the British Duke, said he was sick for several days and did not go to court, and seemed to intend to pass on the title to the British Duke's son.

Su Wan originally wanted to move to her wife's mansion, but it was Lidong soon, and Madam Lingbihou asked her to move there after Lidong.

Su Wan also wanted to get along with them more, so she stayed in the Hou Mansion for a few more days.

One day in early October, the weather was clear and the temperature was not as cold as it was two days ago. Su Wan once again bid farewell to Mrs. Lingbihou.

Madam Lingbihou did not continue to keep Su Wan, because she also knew that it would be inconvenient for Su Wan to live here all the time, and it was not in compliance with the rules, so she agreed and asked Mrs. Yu to send her back in person.

Han Ju and Shan Cha were very happy when they knew they were going to leave.It's not that they don't like Lingbihou's Mansion, but it's not their own home after all.Moreover, they also wanted to see what Mrs. Chu's mansion looked like earlier, after all, it used to be the mansion of Princess Ronghua!
