"… Prince Kang is destined by the heavens. If Ying 'er can marry him and become his consort, when he ascends the throne in the future, our Ying' er will be the mother of the world. In this way, who would dare to look down on our third branch? As the guozhang, he should at least be a marquis. "Luo Rongping held a teacup and raised his eyes to look at Liu-shi." If Ying 'er can win over the emperor's heart and whisper pillow talk, even if your Liu family can't recover its former glory, at least it will make the Bo fu look the same as it was in the past, and have infinite glory. "
Liu-shi clenched the handkerchief in her hand, not because of anger, but because of excitement. Luo Rongping looked at her with slanted eyes and sneered in his heart. If there was a real knot in Liu-shi's heart, it wasn't in the Luo family, nor was it in her children. It was her own birth. She was born in a poor family, but she wanted to become a proud daughter of heaven. If she could make the Liu family rise again and fundamentally raise her status, perhaps she would do her best and be more unscrupulous than planning for her children's future.
"Think about it carefully. If this matter succeeds, our son's future won't have to worry at all. With an older sister who is the Empress, even if they are dandy for the rest of their lives, no one will dare to provoke them. They will have wind and rain."
"Them? We don't even know what's in that slut's belly, but you're sure it's a son? Now you're thinking about sharing my daughter's glory? Ying 'er only has one younger brother. I'm telling you, Luo Rongping, no one else can get close to her. "
"Oh, is that so? Then you go and do this matter yourself. I want to see how capable Luo Liu-Shi, who is awe-inspiring in the inner courtyard of the Luo family, is to help her daughter to the position of Prince Kang's Consort. " Although Luo Rongping's expression was indifferent, he had a high and mighty attitude. Even if Mrs. Liu could threaten him, so what? Outside, it was a man's world. You can't do anything just because you're mad.
Mrs. Liu gritted her teeth in hatred, but this matter was different. Mrs. Liu couldn't ignore it. Even if she didn't compromise, Luo Rongping wouldn't ignore it. After all, after this matter was settled, it would be very beneficial to him. He could become the most powerful person among his brothers, and his father-in-law would treat him differently. Luo Rongping knew the knot in her heart. How could she not know that in addition to his ambition for power, he had buried his deepest thoughts in his heart? However, this man's heart was now on that b * tch. Who knew if he would do something unreasonable? "What do you want?"
"You don't have to care about Huan Niang. It's best if she goes her own way and you go your own way."
Mrs. Liu showed an expression as if she had expected it. Luo Rongping now cared about that woman. If they really went their own way, not to mention that she would lose face, the entire third branch's life would not be as good as that b * tch's. Life was already tight. In this way, they wouldn't get anything except for the things in the family. How could they have the face to go out? "No, at most, I won't make things difficult for her. Don't even think about it. And since you're thinking about Ying 'er, you naturally can't lack clothes and jewelry. I don't have money in my hands. What should I do? Ye ye, you can decide. "Mrs. Liu gathered her hair.
He knew that Mrs. Liu's purpose was not as simple as buying clothes and jewelry for his daughter. The most important thing was to ask him for money. However, her excuse was understandable. "I'll have someone send the money later, but you'd better remember what you said. If anything happens to Huan Niang and the child in her belly, you'll be the only one responsible."
Luo Jingying didn't expect that she would hear such a thing when she directly broke in. It would be a lie to say that she wasn't excited. Being the mother of the country was something that many women dreamed of. Her mother always said that she was unspeakably noble. If she really reached that step, she would really be unspeakably noble. However, Luo Jingying thought of the gentle, handsome, and elegant Third Prince, Prince Rui. He was obviously better than Prince Kang in all aspects. He was obviously more like an emperor. Even if he suffered a little loss in identity, in the real battle for the throne, how many people could become the final winner based on birth? No, she had to make her father change his mind. Luo Jingying clenched her fists, took a deep breath, and walked into the door in a dignified manner. "Father, mother …"
"Why are you here?" Not to mention Luo Rongping, even Mrs. Liu's face was not very good.
"Father, mother, daughter heard what you said just now."
"Mrs. Liu, is this the good daughter you taught? Eavesdropping on her parents' conversation?" Luo Rongping stared at Mrs. Liu with a gloomy face. There was still no sign of this matter. If this evil daughter of his shouted out, not only would it not succeed, but it would also make him lose face and become a laughing stock.
"Father, don't be angry, and don't blame mother. I didn't mean to eavesdrop. I was just worried about you … so I broke in. Can you listen to what I have to say?" Luo Jingying crossed her hands in front of her body and stood upright. She spoke calmly, not in a hurry.
This kind of girl, not to mention Luo Rongping, even Mrs. Liu was a little surprised. She was not impatient, she was not rash, she was not reckless, she was not reckless, this was her ideal daughter. Could it be that this was the result of correcting her in the past few days? If she knew this would happen, she would have been ruthless earlier. "Master, after all, this matter concerns my daughter's life. Since she heard it, why don't you listen to what she has to say? If there is something good about her, she may be of some use. If not, you can teach her well."
Luo Rongping was silent for a moment. If he really helped his daughter to the position of Princess Kang, it would definitely not do if she did not know anything. Even if she was to be an understanding flower, she had to at least understand what her man was saying. If she was just a vase, no matter how beautiful she was, there would be a day when she would grow old. Moreover, for the group of men in the imperial family, they had seen countless women, and there were not many who were not beautiful women. In this way, the time she would be favored would be shorter, and she might not even be favored from the beginning. A legal wife who was completely ignored by her husband was not even as good as a favored concubine. He went out for a while, ordered someone to guard the door, and then came back. "What do you want to say?"
"Father, instead of choosing Prince Kang, why not choose Prince Rui …"
"Evil daughter, do you know what you are saying?" Luo Rongping wanted to go forward and slap her. Choosing a side was not a trifling matter. Those in power hated fence-sitters the most. Even if he had not really gotten close to Prince Kang yet, it would be soon. It was a critical time. Perhaps in a few days, he would be able to meet the prince directly. If he chose another master at this time, not only would all his previous efforts be in vain, but he might also be retaliated by Prince Kang's faction.
"Father, I know what I am saying. Listen to me first. It won't be too late for you to get angry."
"Well, I'd like to hear it. What else can you say?"
"Father, let's not talk about other things. Between Prince Kang and Prince Rui, who is more capable, who is more appreciated by His Majesty, and who is more favored by His Majesty, even us indoors women know clearly. Although the position of Crown Prince is not decided by His Majesty's personal preference, Prince Rui's advantages are obvious to all. The fight for the throne has always been about the results, not the process. The most obvious advantage that Prince Rui has over Prince Kang is that he has the Right Commander-In-Chief in charge of military power. To put it bluntly, even if Prince Kang ascends the throne, if Prince Rui is unwilling, before Prince Kang stabilizes the throne …" Luo Jingying paused, but Luo Rongping knew what she meant.
"Go on."
"Father's wisdom is unparalleled. I believe that when you were choosing, your real goal was not Prince Kang, was it?"
Naturally, it was not Prince Kang. It was just that at that time, Prince Rui had no choice but to side with Prince Kang's faction. "Even if it was so, so what? You have to know that if you abandoned Prince Kang and chose Prince Rui, not to mention the position of Wangfei, it would be hard to say if you could even become a side consort. Do you think you are so cheap? "
"Then what are the chances that father can make daughter Kang Wangfei? It's not that daughter is looking down on father, but based on our family, even if eldest sister is not married, there is not much hope for her to become Prince Kang's second Wangfei, right? Why should I? " In order to achieve her goal, Luo Jingying, who had always been loftier than the sky, had belittled herself like this for the first time. She thought that she did not mean what she said, but this was the truest truth that she was unwilling to face and admit. "But Prince Rui is different. It is much easier to obtain the position of side consort. Even if I can't do this, what if daughter can give birth to a son for Prince Rui? Don't forget, the concubine in Prince Rui's residence who had high hopes also did not give birth to a son. This matter was released by someone with ulterior motives, and almost everyone knew about it. Prince Rui has been ridiculed a lot these days. If daughter gave birth to Prince Rui's eldest son, he may be able to become the son of the first wife in the future. The affairs of the world are unpredictable. Who can say for sure? With Prince Kang, there will be no such advantages. Even if daughter is a Wangfei and gives birth to a son of the first wife, she will still be inferior to the son of the first wife. Father, don't you think so? "
Luo Rongping frowned and quietly pondered. He had to admit that his daughter's words were reasonable. But he did not want to waste all his efforts and take risks, not to mention how to establish a relationship with Prince Rui. Luo Rongping threw out the problem. He wanted to see if this daughter, who had made him look at her in a new light, could give him a pleasant surprise.
"Wealth comes from danger. It depends on whether father dares to do it or not."
"What do you mean?"
"Be a nail for Prince Rui to plant in Prince Kang's faction."
"You really dare to say that. One mistake and you will lose your life." Luo Rongping looked at her coldly.
"That's why wealth comes from danger. This is the fastest way to gain Prince Rui's trust and an important position. Compared to slowly climbing up in Prince Kang's faction, it is much better to be mediocre for the rest of your life. In this way, wouldn't it be logical to mention the matter of daughter entering Prince Rui's residence? That ce fei position might be easily obtained without any effort. As for how to establish a relationship with Prince Jin, daughter was on the street two days ago … "Luo Jingying played down the matter of Prince Rui helping her out of her predicament," Although Prince Rui doesn't care about a colored glass lamp, we can't not care about it. Father, use this as a reason, there must be a way to establish a relationship. "
Liu-shi slightly narrowed her eyes as she looked at her own daughter. It really made her somewhat surprised ah.
Luo Rongping sunk into contemplation. It was clear that his heart was really moved. Previously, when he mentioned to Liu-shi about marrying his daughter to Prince Kang, he did have that idea. He said it so solemnly, but wasn't it because Liu-shi didn't understand the outside world? In fact, he was very clear that to achieve his wish, the possibility of daydreaming was higher. He mainly did it for Huan Niang. He hoped to use this as a condition to fool Liu-shi and make her restrain herself a little. He just didn't want to accidentally hit the road and get an unexpected harvest. "Father will think about this matter carefully." Looking at Luo Jingying, for the first time, he became very amiable, "You performed very well today. This is how I, Luo Rongping's daughter should be. You must continue to maintain it. Father doesn't want to see you like before, always doing stupid things."
"Daughter was young and insensible before, making Father worry. In the future, I will certainly not be like this."
"Mmm." Luo Rongping got up, "I'll go first."
Liu-shi got up slowly and sent Luo Jingying off with Luo Rongping. Then, she sat back and looked at Luo Jingying with a measuring gaze.
Luo Jingying felt very uncomfortable under her gaze. These days, her fear of Liu-shi was really increasing day by day. She couldn't help but shrink back a little. "Mother, what's wrong?"
"I thought you had really grown up. It turns out that you're just a flower. You won't last long." Liu-shi faintly said.
"Mother …" Luo Jingying was embarrassed by her sarcastic words.
"Your attitude was very good just now. Why can't you continue to pretend? Because you've achieved your goal. Without a goal to support it, you can't hold it anymore? "
Luo Jingying's lips wriggled twice, and her expression was somewhat evasive, "Mother, what are you talking about?"
"Ying 'er, you grew up under mother's eyes. You can hide your little thoughts from others, but can you hide them from me? Do you have a crush on Prince Rui? "
"Mother, no, I …"
"If you have a crush on him, then so be it," Liu-shi waved her hand to interrupt her, "This time, your taste is not bad. — — Straighten your back. You have the courage to say those words to your father. You can also be neither servile nor overbearing, open and generous. Now that I haven't done anything to you, you're already shrinking back? I've told you before, in front of anyone, you have to show the same magnanimity as before, including me. Ying 'er, since you have that ambition, you must have the corresponding ability and self-restraint. "
Luo Jingying subconsciously straightened her back, but her eyes were still a little erratic, "Mother, you're not angry?"
"Why should I be angry? Prince Rui is indeed a good candidate. Compared to Chen Zhengmin, who knows how many times better he is. If this matter is successful, Luo Jingwan and those people will be nothing. You can easily trample them under your feet. However, you must not be complacent about this matter. Other than your father and us, you can't let anyone else know. Otherwise, when the time comes, our entire family will have to bear the consequences. Do you understand? "
"Mother, I know the severity of the matter. I absolutely won't say a word."
"En. Go back to your room. I want you to learn etiquette, how to deal with people, and some other things from the etiquette instructor. You won't be perfunctory and feel uneasy anymore, right? "
Luo Jingying's face was a little hot, "Mother, daughter was insensible in the past and didn't know your good intentions. In the future, I will definitely learn well."
"It's good that you know. Go."
"Daughter will take her leave."
The family of three thought that they did it secretly, but who knew that there was a kind of "scheming person" in this world. Not long after, these words all fell into Gong Mama's ears.
Gong Mama's face was still expressionless. She wouldn't tell Miss about this matter, mainly because it wasn't as fierce as before with the third branch. Almost everyone in the Luo family knew about it. This matter could be considered as a family's secret plot. If everyone knew about it clearly, anyone would be suspicious, let alone someone as exquisite as Miss.
Jingwan concentrated on taking care of her precious flowers and plants. For the time being, she put aside the matters of the outside world. After all, Yuan Qiaoqiao and Zhou Yingshuang's bodies could only be slowly nurtured. She wasn't a doctor, so she couldn't help at all. As for Sun Yijia's marriage, it was the highest authority of the Qi Yuan dynasty. No one could say anything about it. Now, she hoped that the daring Jin Qinwang, who was known as the Living King of Hell, could mess up this marriage. Although the imperial family broke off the engagement, which had a great impact on a woman, Sun Yijia was different. In any case, she was already disfigured. If she stayed in Ding Guo Gong fu, there would be a few people to protect her.
Everyone thought that Li Hongyuan would enter the palace as soon as he returned to the capital. Even if he didn't go to mess up the marriage, he should go and pay respects to his Fuhuang Mufei. But unexpectedly, he directly returned to Jin Qinwang fu and closed the door. Not to mention the brothers who sent people to check on his situation, even the people around Le Chengdi who came to the door were met with a nose full of dust.
Le Chengdi was so angry that he flipped the table and smashed the booklet. He roared and cursed, but everyone could hear that no matter how angry he was, he was full of energy. It could be seen that when Jin Qinwang returned, his spirit also came back. He scolded for less than an hour, "evil creature, unfilial son, ungrateful wretch" without stopping.
Originally, at this time, he was still in the Imperial Study discussing matters with the courtiers and two or three of his sons. In the end, he encountered this matter. A group of people could only hang their heads and wait for him to scold them. However, Li Hongyuan, he wasn't here at all. It was so embarrassing. Whoever was in front of him was unlucky. Many people could do this kind of thing, let alone the Emperor. Doing it was even more natural and self-righteous. No one could refute or protest. If you dare to snort at him, he would immediately cut you to death. He was not below one person, only above millions of people, so he was willful and unreasonable.
The Grand Secretary of the Cabinet, Ruan Rui Zhong, Ruan Daren, had never made a mistake in political affairs. At this time, he was also scolded like a dog by Le Chengdi.
To say whether he resented the main culprit, Jin Qinwang, in the beginning, there might be, but time after time, he had long gotten used to it. No matter how angry or resentful you were, it was useless and would harm the body. The best way was to listen and wait for Le Chengdi's anger to subside, or wait for Jin Qinwang to enter the palace to let Le Chengdi transfer his anger.
However, listening to Le Chengdi's scolding, the people below more or less dispelled the idea that "Le Chengdi had already found Li Hongyuan". Whether a person was really angry or pretending, especially in this kind of emotional situation, after a long time, it could still be seen.
They didn't know how many cups of tea Le Chengdi had drunk, but finally, he slowly stopped scolding. After scolding, the political affairs had to continue.
After reluctantly dealing with the political affairs, Le Chengdi let the sons of the officials scram, and then went straight to the Jade Essence Palace in anger. Without waiting for Imperial Consort Su to salute, he said, "That evil creature and unfilial son, zhen is so angry. Missing for so long, doesn't he know that his father will be worried? Coming back, he didn't even enter the palace to pay his respects. If it was someone else, zhen would have already taken his head."
For this kind of situation, Imperial Consort Su had long been accustomed to it. She personally poured a cup of tea for Le Chengdi, "Your Majesty, calm down. You should let chenqie say it. The reason why Yuan 'er dared to be so unscrupulous was because of your indulgence. "
"Zhen indulged? Isn't it because of my beloved consort? "Le Chengdi glared.
Imperial Consort Su wasn't afraid at all. She looked at him with a smile and stroked his chest, "Yes, yes, chenqie indulged. But if Your Majesty didn't indulge chenqie, chenqie also didn't dare to indulge Yuan 'er. In the end, it was Your Majesty who indulged him."
Le Chengdi angrily glared at her, refusing to admit that the evil creature's current virtue was mostly because of himself.
Why didn't Li Hongyuan directly enter the palace? Why didn't he say that Mu Gonggong had the most right to speak, but it was also very difficult to say.
When Li Hongyuan returned to Jin Qinwang fu, he directly bathed and changed his clothes. Then, he lay back on the bed and refused to move.
With his dead appearance, you still expect him to enter the palace, expect him to receive guests? Wait until he was willing to slow down. That's right, he was willing.
Li Hongyuan's slow down lasted for three days, making Le Chengdi's patience almost reach its limit. If he still didn't enter the palace, he would definitely send people to surround Jin Qinwang fu and capture him into the palace.
Li Hongyuan wore the imperial attire of a qinwang. From head to toe, there wasn't a single spot. His entire person had an imposing appearance and was extraordinarily handsome. Excluding other things, just based on his bearing and appearance, there weren't many girls who wouldn't be convinced by him.
Mu Gonggong tidied up the corner of his clothes for him and sighed in his heart. If outsiders knew the real master, he was afraid that all the girls in the capital would be dead set on him.
However, Li Hongyuan only occasionally went to court and generally wouldn't wear the imperial attire. What happened today? So solemn.
Qinwang fu's imperial attire, Qinwang fu's ceremonial attire. The main gate of Jin Qinwang fu opened and he mightily went out.
There were many qinwang fu in this area. One by one, they quickly knew that this person finally went out after returning to the capital and was preparing to enter the palace with such momentum. They were all qinwang, so their imperial attire and ceremonial attire were the same. They wore the imperial attire and used the ceremonial attire frequently. However, they only used it occasionally. Sometimes, they wouldn't see Li Hongyuan use it once in a year or two. But once he used it, it gave people a different feeling. However, if you wanted to say what was different, it wasn't clear.
When Le Chengdi learned that Li Hongyuan finally entered the palace, he was overjoyed and couldn't help but stand up. But he immediately thought of something and angrily sat back down, "That evil creature still knows to enter the palace. When he comes, let him kneel outside for two shichen (1 shichen = 2 hours)."
Then, not long after, the people below told him, "Emperor, Jin Qinwang went to Yu Cui Palace."
Le Chengdi almost smashed the imperial desk again.
