The Coral of the Red Mansion Does Not Return

"Can't it?" Liu's face turned pale, "Miss Cheng's fiancé is the nephew of the Seventh Prince! This is robbing my nephew for a woman..."

When her mother said this, Jia Ying realized this: "I also thought that Cheng's family saw that Prince Wu's mansion had lost power and betrayed their promises, so they didn't feel disgusting. Only now did I find out that the seventh prince blatantly robbed his nephew's fiancée, and even put on a show. She's so affectionate, and she looks like she's not married to someone else, it's even more disgusting!"

The mother and son talked for a while, and seeing that their daughter was indeed not hit by anyone, Liu felt relieved and warned: "Let's not get involved in royal affairs. Just know the truth in your heart and don't go outside. explain."

Jia Ying agreed, and the two ordered a bowl of sherbet to eat, and when Jia Lian came back from school, they forgot about it.

The gossip in Beijing is always the fastest to spread, but in a few days, everyone knows about the Seventh Prince's heroic rescue of the beauty.Accompanying rumors were that Miss Cheng was ashamed that she had lost her innocence. A white damask almost killed her, but her family members realized something was wrong and rescued her. She is still lying on the bed.And Miss Cheng's beauty is as beautiful as a fairy, the Seventh Prince fell in love with her at first sight, and he definitely asked her to be his side concubine.

In the Golden Luan Hall, the Seventh Prince knelt in front of the Emperor, and said affectionately, "I beseech you, Father, to be fulfilled!"

The emperor had a sullen face, and said word by word: "I beg you to be fulfilled? When you said this, did you think of the son born to you by your concubine? Did you think that she is the fiancee of your elder brother's eldest son? Thinking of how your elder brother took care of you during his lifetime?"

The Seventh Prince closed his eyes, and when he opened them again, his eyes were firm.As long as the throne is in hand, everything else is empty.It's a big deal to make up for my nephew.So, he still insisted: "I beg my father to help me!"

The emperor walked away without saying a word about whether it will be completed or not.The Seventh Prince still insisted on kneeling there, as if I would not get up if you didn't agree, until he was kicked out.

After leaving the palace, the Seventh Prince showed a vague smile when the emperor went to Concubine Hui's place when he received the news from the palace.

In Hexi Palace.

It was rare for Concubine Hui to meet her daughter-in-law. Although she was ordered by the emperor, she inevitably spent some time caring for her grandchildren. She chatted with Princess Wu and asked, "Brother Yu is just growing up, and he hasn't come out yet. Xiao, it’s not okay for children to eat tofu and vegetables all day long. How about the eggs and milk cake I gave you at the beginning of the month, brother Ziyu?”

Princess Wu paused, swallowed the words that the eggs sent by the Ministry of Internal Affairs were defective, and then said gratefully: "Thank you for the things sent by the concubine mother. It's just that the eggs are half meat after all. His father refused to let Brother Yu eat it. It was milk cake. Although Brother Yu tasted fishy, ​​he tasted unambiguous. In the past year, he has grown a lot. It's just that the concubine mother is also struggling in the palace. , the people of our palace can still go out to buy at least, mother and concubine should take care of her own health."

The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law looked at each other's face that had aged more than ten years, and each was very sad.

Concubine Hui couldn't help but patted her daughter-in-law's hand, and persuaded: "You and I and Brother Lang and Brother Yu. This life may last for a few years, so the family might as well be more frugal. In the future, the children When we grow up, we don’t have to worry about money.”

Concubine Wu held Concubine Hui's hand instead, and she was very grateful for her heart, "Mother Concubine, we have all the money and rice at home. The good things that my father won in the early years are all kept in the warehouse. If you sell anything, it will be enough for us." The mother and the son chewed and used it. The concubine's things are not cheap for the people of the Ministry of Internal Affairs. Wouldn't it be better for Brother Lang to pick you up in the future and give Brother Yu a dowry?"

As soon as Concubine Hui heard this, she knew that the Ministry of Internal Affairs had swallowed her own money and refused to do things, so she couldn't help being very angry.Concubine Wu hurriedly persuaded: "Ninth brother had a lot of anger, the Ministry of Internal Affairs didn't dare to take it very seriously. Besides, how can our mansion rely on the Ministry of Internal Affairs to make a living? Concubine mother, don't be so angry for nothing."

Concubine Hui saw and remembered the Ninth Prince's care for the orphans and widows.He couldn't help saying some good things about the Ninth Prince.Concubine Hui was furious, before thinking about the business, the good mood of Ninth Prince was ruined.

She said angrily: "Everyone in the world praises the high and tramples the low. The Cheng family is still an aristocratic family that has been passed down for hundreds of years, and the daughter they teach is so shameless! You shouldn't have chosen the Cheng family in the first place! "After finishing speaking, he even spat a few mouthfuls.

Princess Wu knew that it was the Cheng family's man's decision, so she couldn't help but feel disheartened.She said bitterly: "What's wrong with Miss Cheng's family? It's all the fault of men outside. It's just that the house can't afford to offend the Prime Minister's family. We can only suffer this loss."

Concubine Hui became more and more angry, and remembered what the emperor said to her earlier, and immediately asked: "The emperor said that this matter concerns the face of the royal family, even if Miss Cheng's family is imprisoned in a Buddhist hall for the rest of her life. It's just how you Thinking about it? In my opinion, with Brother Lang's status, there is no other good candidate. Why don't we let Miss Cheng's family marry in. When she gets married in, she will feel better!"

He said again: "You don't have to be afraid of her father and brother. Brother Lang and Brother Yu still have their clan affiliations, and no one dares to tell even if a girl married into the clan dies."

Princess Wu shook her head again and again, "Is this marriage or enmity? What's more, I'm just two precious bumps, Brother Lang and Brother Yu, how can I be willing to be Brother Jian Lang's wife?"

With a firm expression, she said loudly, "Since the Cheng family doesn't want it, we won't rush. I don't want this daughter-in-law anymore!"

"it is good!"

A male voice cheered.It turned out that the emperor was worried, so he came over quietly, stood behind the window and eavesdropped, and happened to hear this verse.

It's not that the emperor is not angry when he says he rebelled against his eldest son.The emperor knew the inside story well, if the eldest son hadn't been instigated by the second son's people, he might not have rebelled.He didn't rebel, and he couldn't find a single flaw in his body. He was the emperor's favorite candidate.

Now that a person is dead, all that is in his mind is his benefits.Now that he remembered the kindness of the eldest prince, it was inevitable that he would take offense at the second prince who was not very fond of him.This is also the reason why Prince Wu's Mansion lifted the ban, while Prince Li's Mansion still does not allow people to enter or leave.

The emperor was deeply shocked when he heard Princess Wu's words of integrity.The boss is really good at everything, Princess Wu can also afford to be a mother, and Brother Lang and Brother Yu are also dragons among men.If so, if he stopped the boss back then...

It's just that the emperor never allowed himself to regret it, and immediately pressed these things into the bottom of his heart, came in from the door, helped Concubine Hui, and praised: "My concubine really has good eyesight at the beginning, and the daughter-in-law I chose can be a model for royal wives!"

Concubine Hui was delighted, and Concubine Wu's complexion brightened.There are two prostitutes in Prince Wu's mansion, one concubine son and three concubine daughters.After leaving the filial piety, Princess Wu, as the aunt, had to go out to socialize.With this compliment from the emperor, even if they go out to socialize in the future, no one would dare to make things difficult for Princess Wu.Otherwise, wouldn't it be a challenge to all women who marry into the royal family?

The emperor made another promise to Princess Wu, "Brother Lang is a good boy, and I have another candidate in my mind who is very suitable for Brother Lang. It's just that the daughter of that family is not yet young, so it will take some time. You can go back to the house with peace of mind, and next year I will Personally give Lang Geer a marriage."

With the emperor's clear promise, Princess Wu secretly rejoiced, and answered a few questions from the emperor before returning to the mansion.As soon as she got back to the mansion, Princess Wu hurriedly sent someone to find Brother Lang.

Zhou Lang knew early on that when his mother entered the palace today, his heart was in a state of turmoil, and he couldn't concentrate on teaching his younger brother to read.Hearing that my mother is back, I hurried to the main hall.Seeing his mother, Zhou Lang hesitated for a while.He was looking forward to retiring, after all, which big man could stand the humiliation of his fiancée throwing herself into his uncle's arms and being willing to be his concubine.

Seeing her son's heavy face, Princess Wu felt sore. She pressed him to sit down, and Fang smiled and said, "My son, how can mother not know what's on your mind? Don't worry, your emperor's father said that he will choose another wife for you." .” As for the words of giving marriage, she never mentioned it.Just waiting for another surprise for him.

"Really?" Zhou Lang was overjoyed and asked several times before confirming that the marriage was really cancelled.The powerlessness, shame, and shame that had been lingering in my heart really dissipated a little at this moment.Zhou Lang also finally showed his first smile these days.

Seeing the smile on her son's face, Princess Wu put down a big stone in her heart.Since the death of her husband, the eldest son has only held back in his heart.Princess Wu is always afraid that he will be suffocated one day.

Just after Princess Wu entered the palace, the Cheng family, who had been waiting for the verdict, finally received the news from the Seventh Prince, and finally breathed a sigh of relief.Cheng Chengxiang scolded his son and wife, "Look at what you are doing!"

Mrs. Cheng said aggrievedly, "I watched Sister He grow up. How could I not consider her and just watched her marry into Prince Wu's Mansion? That Zhou Lang is the son of a common man! Even a poor scholar is not as good as her." People, do you have the heart to tell Miss He to live like this for the rest of her life?"

Prime Minister Cheng was at a loss for words.

Sister He is the only daughter of his descendants, how could she not feel distressed?It's just... well, thunder, rain and dew are all due to your grace.

The Cheng family is a family that has been inherited from the previous dynasty to the present, and almost every generation has been a high-ranking official in the dynasty.It's just that it's not a family. After all, after the change of dynasty, the Cheng family has no character and continues to serve as officials in the new dynasty.What's more, in the eyes of the emperor, since he can win the Cheng family, he can also drive the Cheng family into the abyss.

Cheng Cheng knew this well.

From the Cheng family to his generation, from the founding of the Great Zhou Dynasty to the current emperors, the prime ministers are all from the Cheng family, which is eye-catching enough.The few sons are not good enough, so he should concentrate on raising his grandson.

In the early morning of the next day, Prime Minister Cheng begged the emperor for the bones.

The emperor forbids.

Cheng Chengxiang made another exposition, Ziyun himself was old and exhausted, unable to cope with state affairs.There are also unworthy children and grandchildren in the family, who want to return to their hometown to provide for the elderly and raise their children and grandchildren.

The emperor still does not allow.

So Prime Minister Cheng had no choice but to lean on crutches, trembling and begging again and again when he went to the court.

God allows it.

In August, the eldest granddaughter of the Cheng family married the seventh prince as a concubine.

Zhou Su lay on Jia Hu's bed and said gossipingly, "Hey, it would be great if Mr. Cheng couldn't bear the position of prime minister, otherwise, we can watch a big show."

Jia Hu raised her eyebrows, "What big show?"

Zhou Su chuckled: "Please! Please, I'll tell you."
