A Thousand Hills

Chapter 110

Queen Mother Hu soon discovered that the world could not understand herself.Even with her own mother who has always had a common language, when the mother and daughter talked about Xie Moru together, the old lady Shou'an advised her, "Forget it, we are elders, so we have to turn a blind eye to the younger generation." Well. Niangniang, you are the mother of a country. If you care about her, you will not lower your status. Hey, these days, I also want to open up. It’s true that life is going smoothly and happily.”

If you want to say that Mrs. Shou'an is indeed the mother of Queen Mother Hu, and she is very good at persuading her daughter, Mrs. Shou'an said again, "Just don't look at her, think about your majesty. I often hear your brother say that your majesty looks at her every day." There are as many memorials as there are in a room. As elders, your Majesty is so busy, do you still let your majesty worry about some household chores? Empress, your majesty is not easy."

When Madam Shouan mentioned Emperor Mu Yuan, Empress Dowager Hu's expression softened immediately, and she sighed, "How can the Ai family not know? It's not easy for the emperor these years. When I was young, I started to learn to read, read, and practice martial arts when I was so talented. , riding a horse, and learning to read memorials, and I haven’t had a day of leisure after taking office.” Empress Dowager Hu said very distressed.

"So I said, forget it, the empress only cares about His Majesty and the fifth prince, what a sensible child the fifth prince is, how much you love him, empress."

"Of course Aijia loves Lao Wu."

"That's it." The old lady Shou'an smiled, "The little emperor's grandson in the second prince's mansion has been calling for more than a week, and he can call people. I met him once, and he is really likable." On the little emperor's grandson, because Mrs. Shou'an was so disgusting to herself that she couldn't bear it.If not for her children and grandchildren strongly demanding that she never say anything wrong with Xie Moru again, and to persuade the Queen Mother to relax temporarily and stop picking on Xie Moru, otherwise, the old lady of Shou'an would never hold back her nausea and persuade the Queen Mother's daughter these words of.Actually, Mrs. Shou'an's tolerance is not bad. No matter how much she hated Princess Ningping back then, every time she saw Princess Ningping, she always bowed her knees in various ways.However, from time to time, since Emperor Mu Yuan was in charge, the old Hu family followed suit, and Mrs. Shou'an, as the direct grandmother of Emperor Mu Yuan, was deeply respected by the royal family.Humans have always been easy to go from frugal to extravagant, but difficult to go from extravagant to frugal.So, after many years of high spirits, she suddenly asked her to change her color in front of Empress Dowager Hu to persuade Empress Dowager Hu to let that girl Xie go for a while, thinking of the various festivals with Xie Moru, and the plum tree that was dug away from her home. It is conceivable that Mrs. Shou'an felt all kinds of unwillingness.

Of course, Cheng Engong's request to Mrs. Shou'an was not out of any peaceful purpose of meeting each other with a smile, and Cheng Engong didn't want to see Queen Mother Hu make a fool of herself.Especially now that the Fifth Prince has just passed the title of Concubine and Concubine, no matter how hard he can let the Empress Dowager attack Xie Moru at this joint.Otherwise, what people suspect is not only the IQ of Queen Mother Hu, but the character of Queen Mother Hu.

Don't say that the Empress Dowager Hu has nothing to do with the Cheng'en government, it is really that the Empress Dowager Hu is not doing well, and it is now difficult for the girls of the Hu family to marry into a first-class family.

In a word, the situation is out of control.

Hearing her mother talk about the little grandson of the Second Prince's Mansion, Empress Dowager Hu really became happy, "Yes, the children are still young, and Aijia doesn't ask them to be hugged outside. When the weather is warmer next spring, the children will be older. Let Yanze Bring the child into the palace, and Ai's family will also take a look."

The mother and daughter tacitly turned the topic to the second prince, and spent the day happily.Mrs. Shou'an persuaded Queen Mother Hu once, thinking that she was doing this purely to help Xie Moru out of the siege, but she had to do this. Although she had completed the entrustment to her children and grandchildren, she was in a state of depression for several days.

Princess Wenkang is different from Mrs. Shou'an. Mrs. Shou'an has no choice but to do so, while Princess Wenkang wants to talk to her mother about the issue of how to handle her granddaughter-in-law.Princess Wenkang said, "Princess Yi'an is pregnant only a few years after her marriage. Is it not urgent for Xie's family, but what did they say? It's not the right time for you to be picky about your granddaughter-in-law. "

Empress Dowager Hu raised her eyebrows for a good reason, "Yi'an is married to Xie's family, how dare Xie's family accept Xiao."

Princess Wenkang said, "Changtai and Ah Xuan were also married for more than a year before they became pregnant. Have I urged them, or have I shown Changtai's face?"

Empress Dowager Hu had even more reason, saying, "You are Changtai's real aunt, how can you pick her. Besides, Changtai is a one-shot man." Speaking of this, Empress Dowager Hu is very proud, thinking that her granddaughter is capable.

"Yeah, I don't pick, and the Xie family doesn't pick, why do you pick it?" Princess Wenkang really didn't understand her mother, Princess Wenkang said, "Others are just soft persimmons, why do you only look for them?" This stubble is so hard." You really have a good eye.

Empress Dowager Hu was wronged, "It's not like you didn't hear how she disrespected me. She said that I was born in a palace and was not worthy of being a queen mother. You can tell me instead."

"The empress mother is really real. What's wrong with your family background? There are many empress dowagers in history who are not as good as you. Not to mention others, the Fang family was born in a farming family before, how much better than you Go. Why did you get caught by that girl all of a sudden?" Of course, this is the empty words of Princess Wenkang. Although Fang's family was a farmer back then, they still had hundreds of acres of land, so they could barely be regarded as small landlords. .

"Yes." Empress Dowager Hu regained her confidence from this and said, "I told your imperial brother that day that it was your imperial grandmother. Back then, her eyes were high above the top, so that no one else could see her. Your imperial grandmother also She came from a down-and-out little scholarly family, and was later divorced by the emperor Shizu. She took the late emperor to live with her, and she was almost begging for food. If the late emperor was not capable and filial, she would not have the prestige of those years. You say, then Why does someone surnamed Xie look down on palace people?"

Princess Wenkang really can't understand her mother, how many years have passed since her mother made it to the queen mother step by step, why is she still obsessed with being a palace servant back then.Princess Wenkang said, "Everyone has his own destiny. I'm not picking on the fifth daughter-in-law. I didn't look down on the palace people, nor did the queen mother look down on the palace people, but think about it, you are the grandson of the emperor." Will I choose a grandson's wife from among the palace people? When I choose a wife for Ah Xuan, will I choose a palace person for him to be his regular wife? Queen Mother, we are not what we used to be. If the first emperor did not become emperor, our family can't say now Life is not much better than that of the palace people. In the past, my father had a lot of hard times, but there is nothing to be ashamed of, we should be proud of it. My father has the ability to conquer the world, and my mother became the queen mother. I am the eldest princess. People should look forward, don't they?"

Empress Dowager Hu sighed, and told the truth, "I just don't think she looks peaceful, and I always feel that Guo is late to go wrong. Her face is not good."

"Then tell me, this time the fifth son made clear his concubine, does the empress think it's good?"

"Of course the fifth one is good."

"The fifth one has grown up too. He is such a good boy, sensible and well-mannered, and the queen mother also likes him." Princess Wenkang said, "But having said that, when a boy grows up, he needs face. Princess Xie, That is the daughter-in-law that Brother Huang is marrying Lao Wu as a matchmaker. Mother, you say you like Lao Wu and say he is good, but you always pick on Mrs. Xie and show Xie's face. What do you think of Mrs. Wu? You like him, yes He is good, it’s not enough to just talk about it. There are so many people in the palace, all of them have bright eyes and hearts. If you slightly curl your lips or frown, someone will think about it, not to mention you are so picky about Mrs. Xie. I know that If you don’t like Mrs. Xie, if you don’t know, you have to say that you are beating the fifth child by ignoring Mrs. Xie. People may not think about this kind of thing once or twice. You are always like this. Minute."

"Furthermore, from what the emperor said, our old Mu's family can only be considered prosperous when we come to the emperor's place. The emperor hopes that the whole family will be harmonious, and there will always be such noise. See, what's the point?" Princess Wenkang's three sons have never worked so hard, and after listening to her daughter's analysis, Queen Mother Hu stopped talking and said awkwardly, "Your grandmother also persuaded Aijia Forget it, forget it, the Ai family will just look at the emperor, look at the fifth child, and just ignore her."

"As it should be."

Mrs. Shou'an and Princess Wenkang both came to persuade her. Empress Dowager Hu knew about it. Although she was unwilling, her mother and daughter were the closest people. They all advised her like this. Empress Dowager Hu thought about it, forget it, don't be with her Xie Moru cares about it.

It's just that she still feels uncomfortable, Empress Dowager Hu is looking forward to Princess Ningrong's arrival in the palace, and the two aunts and sisters-in-law can talk about each other.As a result, Princess Ning Rong never came into the palace.The main reason is that Princess Ning Rong suddenly smashed a jasper pendant she was playing with in her hand after learning about the five princes and his wife's letter, and she couldn't show her face for several days, let alone the matter of entering the palace.Princess Ning Rong doesn't have such a heart at all!She felt that God really favored some people too much!How can there be such people in this world, who are born with a longer-term perspective than others, and have more means. It is easy for them to stir up the situation, and they can become famous in the imperial capital with every gesture!How could there be such a person in the world!
Princess Ning Rong knew that she could no longer insinuate Xie Mo like before when she entered the palace, so she simply refused to enter the palace!
Not to mention the other princes and concubines, just like the analysis of the fifth prince, the second prince must know his love when he puts on this seal, the third prince and Xie Moru are cousins, and the fourth prince has always been close to the fifth prince.Therefore, the second concubine, the third concubine, and the fourth concubine would rather not speak than say anything wrong with Xie Moru.As for the eldest concubine of the emperor, Emperor Mu Yuan specially selected his wife, the elder sister-in-law Cui Shi, among the concubines of the emperor. When the daughter was met, she said earnestly, "I know you understand everything, don't tell anyone else, even in our family, your brothers and sisters-in-law, I also value my grandchildren more."

Cui sighed, "Mother said, why don't I understand, I am also the main wife." There is a concubine's eldest son in her house, and today there is a difference between the concubine and the concubines, Cui deeply agrees.Just thinking of her husband's annoyed look, Cui said to her mother, "I have already persuaded His Highness."

"That's good." Mrs. Yongdinghou let go of half her heart, but judging from her daughter's appearance, she really didn't seem to be persuading the eldest son of the emperor.Mrs. Yongding Hou secretly sighed, why is the eldest son of the emperor so generous? You are a concubine and everyone knows it. Are you still afraid of people talking about it?If you are more magnanimous, others will at least praise you for your kindness.If you annoy the Fifth Prince and his wife first, it will have a bad effect on your own reputation. Furthermore, wouldn't you also push the Fifth Prince and his wife away?The eldest son of the emperor hasn't understood yet, even if the fifth prince is a simple one, the fifth prince and concubine are not good at it!Let's not mention this for now, what's more, after the eldest son of the emperor got the eldest daughter, he couldn't wait to make the concubine give birth to the eldest son. Mrs. Yongding Hou didn't say anything, but she felt uncomfortable in her heart.It's not that she can't have a daughter. Your majestic prince, after the eldest son is born, what's the problem with having another eldest son? The wife is just the first to give birth to a daughter, so you can't wait?
Mrs. Yongding Hou comforted her daughter a bit, had lunch at noon, and went back to her home in the afternoon.

Therefore, how could Cui say something unfavorable to Xie Moru?Like the three sisters-in-law, she would rather not say anything than say anything wrong with Xie Moru.

As for the princesses, Princess Yongfu has made great progress after practicing in Jingxin Nunnery. Princess Changtai can only thank Mo Ruhao. She has no siblings. Princess Yongfu has the younger brother of the second prince, and the biological mother of the second prince is the queen mother's niece. Queen Hu.In these years, Princess Changtai is inferior to Princess Yongfu in everything, so she may not have no ideas.Now that Xie Moru came forward to tell the truth, Princess Changtai and Li Xuan said, "Don't tell me, Princess Xie is not ordinary in knowledge."

The other three princesses have not yet been married, the fourth princess, the fifth princess and the sixth princess are even younger, so it is not their turn to express their opinions.

People in the royal family, the royal relatives, and the clan all have this attitude, that is, among the concubines, even in front of the Empress Dowager Hu, everyone is courteous and docile, but as long as the Empress Dowager Hu mentions Xie Moru, no one says that Xie Moru is not good .Even Concubine Zhao said, "Princess Xie, be more straightforward when mentioning the Fifth Prince. But then again, there are gentle people in this world, and there are straightforward ones. She is a junior, and we are elders, so we just need to love her more." Concubine Zhao not only spoke well of the Fifth Prince Xie Moru, but also analyzed the pros and cons to her son, asking her son to pretend to be brotherly to the Fifth Prince.I also called my daughter-in-law to exhort me.

Concubine Xie would not say anything wrong with Xie Moru. As for the other concubines, those who can get ahead in the palace are not stupid. In this season, it is good to speak up. If you don't want to say good things, you would rather keep your mouth shut.

Therefore, Empress Dowager Hu felt very simple, as if overnight, everyone's attitude towards Xie Moru changed.She, the empress dowager of a country, the birth mother of the emperor, wanted to find someone with whom she could speak the same language, but she couldn't find it!
Then, how can she handle Xie Moru by herself?She started a conversation, but no one answered.If she made any moves, a bunch of people persuaded her openly and secretly.What's more, she just promised her daughter not to care about that girl.

Empress Dowager Hu: How come the time has changed in just a few days!
