Compared to Dong Qianhong, who was full of jealousy, the daughters of the Chu family, the mother of Qingyang's eldest son, as well as the Hu family and Li family, had mixed feelings in their hearts, and even felt a little sad. The daughters of the Chu family knew that although this man liked older women. But their background and status are still the same as the current situation where all the men in the family are in Ningxia. It is impossible for them to have any status in the palace.
I am afraid that I still cannot escape the status of a concubine in this palace. This man never left anything to himself in the end. It was obvious that he did not intend to give birth to his child, and he would not have much hope in the future. But compared to these women of the Chu family, their hearts were sad. Hu and Li each gave birth to a daughter to Huang Qiong, and they were also the two oldest people around Huang Qiong.
Although I feel sad, mainly for my children. After living in the palace these days, they also know that mothers have no status in the palace and no one looks down on their children. Not to mention his brothers and sisters, even the eunuchs and maids around him will look down on him. And now that I am so old, even if I want to fight for myself, it is almost impossible.
Especially for Mrs. Hu, what was even more sad was that her daughter who was by Huang Qiong's side was also pregnant. So what is the relationship between the child she gave birth to and her own daughter? My ex-daughter-in-law also gave birth to a son for this man. What will happen to these children in the future? Thinking of this, Mrs. Hu glanced at her daughter and ex-daughter-in-law over there, and couldn't help but feel a little sad.
Compared to the other girls with different thoughts, Ms. Cai is actually the calmest one. Maybe she is a little older, especially after losing her whole family, and now she is a mother. For her now, grade is not important, and status is not important either. She only hoped that her new son would grow up peacefully and not suffer too many hardships.
After all the girls retreated, Huang Qiong glanced at the four people left behind by him: Situ Huanshuang, Duan Jin, He Yao, and Lin Hanyan. He walked to Lin Hanyan first, and hugged this person full of guilt. The woman said softly: "Sister Yan, I'm sorry, I can't give you the title now. The old man is still here, and I have to consider his feelings. No matter what, he is my father."
Although Lin Hanyan felt a little sad about Huang Qiong's apology, he shook his head and said: "It's not your fault, nor the old man's fault. He is your father and King Jing's father. They are all his sons. , what can he do? It is his limit to allow us to maintain the current situation. This may be my life. What if it was not you who went to Zhengzhou, but someone else? "
"I'm afraid, my bones are cold now. Or like my three brothers and sisters, I was ruined and went crazy. I have been able to survive until now intact. Although I have no status, I still have no worries about food and clothing, and I still have smart people. Flowers are already a gift from God. No matter how much you ask for, you will be struck by thunder from heaven. What’s more, how can I spare you and bear the infamy of Emperor Gaozong?"
Although Lin Hanyan said this, both Huang Qiong and others heard the weakness in her tone. Seeing Lin Hanyan who was extremely weak at this time, Huang Qiong felt distressed and held the woman tightly in his arms. While kissing her hair, he said in a non-committal tone: "Believe me, I will definitely give you your status. Give me some more time."
Regarding Huang Qiong's words, Lin Hanyan, who was very familiar with Huang Qiong's character, knew that he was definitely not deceiving him. But he also knows that the damage caused to his reputation by giving him a name, even after he succeeds to the throne, is irreparable. If I agree to him, I will be cheating him. Emperor Gaozong accepted his brother's wife as a brother, which became a stain on his career as a king that could not be erased in his life.
He could not let him follow in the footsteps of Emperor Gaozong. So regarding Huang Qiong's promise, Lin Hanyan shook his head firmly and said: "No, that's fine. The history pen is like a knife. You are the king of a country, and every word and deed will be recorded in the history books. I know that you will become To be an emperor for eternity like Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty is also your ambition. You cannot have a stain on your back that cannot be erased for the rest of your life because of me or us."
Lin Hanyan was worried. Before Huang Qiong had time to speak, Duan Jin on the side burst into laughter: "You two are a pair of infatuated seeds. You usually look very shrewd, but you are also a pair of fools. Gao The reason why Zong was infamous back then was because the two of them were secretly together when Concubine Xian's husband was still alive. Later, he even banned his own brother from seizing the title."
"That Concubine Xian even killed her ex-husband's two sons after Emperor Xuanzong succeeded to the throne. And what does Hanyan have to worry about? King Jing has been dead for several years, and Hanyan has nothing to do with him. Children. Didn't Emperor Taizong of the Tang Dynasty also take his wives and concubines into the harem after killing King Yuanji of Qi? You didn't kill King Jing, but you just took the cigarettes. Who has the right to say anything?"
"Is this a big deal in Dali? What happened to the widow remarrying? You men can have three wives and four concubines, but you don't allow women to be widowed and remarry. Look at Mrs. Qin, before you got it, the mother-in-law and the daughter-in-law lived together How miserable is it? Guarding an empty memorial tablet and suffering there? I think among the people in the Qi Dynasty, after the death of their husbands, there are not many women who remarry. There are also many sisters-in-law who marry their brothers-in-law."
"The relationship with my ex-husband's children is that of father and son, and uncle and nephew at the same time. I can take good care of my children and respect my parents. Why can't I do it in the Tian family? You and Hanyan were not together when King Jing was alive. Yes. When you were together, King Jing was already dead, and your relationship had nothing to do with King Jing. The only restriction now is the old man’s face."
"If you ask me, just hold on for a while. When your position is stable, you can bring Han Yan into the palace. In this way, isn't that bastard in the south rebelling now? When the rebellion is put down, I guess this dragon's throne will be , that is, no one can shake it. When the time comes, just accept Hanyan into the palace. At worst, the historian will just make a few notes for me. Anyway, I don’t care about my thick skin. "
"Anyway, you have been like this for a few years, so you might as well wait for two or three more years. With all my skills, if this rebellion cannot be quelled in two or three years, then we have misjudged the person. By then, my ass will be gone Sit tight down there, even if the old man turns against you, what can he do to you? Besides, how can I not speak for you when the time comes? Do you really think that I don’t know anything? "
Duan Jin, who couldn't stand the two people's nagging, directly spoke out the solution to the problem. In Duan Jin's opinion, both of them have reached this point, so what shame do they have to worry about? It is normal in Dali for a widow to remarry. Not to mention the common people, even the widows of the Dali royal family were not in the minority to remarry. In the Central Plains, aren’t the people the same?
If the old man heard what Duan Jin said, he would probably be very angry. The old man has followed the rules all his life, how could he allow this situation to happen? Even if he already knew that Huang Qiong and Lin Hanyan were secretly together, he would never allow them to make it public? Therefore, the biggest problem that Duan Jin mentioned that the two people need to face now is actually the old man's face.
When the rebellion subsided two or three years later and Huang Qiong was firmly seated on the throne, even if the old man objected, it would probably be of no use. Of course, with Huang Qiong's mother here, there is no need to worry too much about the old man being mad at his rebellious son. After all, she was born as the eldest princess of Dali, and you can understand this at a glance. And the solution proposed is also a good one.
After hearing Duan Jin's words, although Lin Hanyan had no expression, Huang Qiong's eyes could not help but light up. Although I was somewhat dissatisfied with Duan Jin's last words that he was not very thick-skinned. But Huang Qiong still couldn't help but praise Duan Jin's solution: "Sister Jin's method is better. It is indeed the famous Tiannan Snake Girl Sword back then, but this method is not ordinary."
Regarding Huang Qiong's praise, Duan Jin rolled his eyes speechlessly: "Tsk, who am I doing this for, other than the flowers? Especially with cigarettes, they always say that I take up too much of the flowers' time. My little apprentice no longer has time to spend with her mother. When Han Yan enters the palace, he can have his own children openly, and there is no need to say that I have to occupy flowers all day long."
Duan Jinyan said what he didn't mean. After Situ Huanshuang, He Yao and Cai looked at each other, they all shook their heads helplessly and smiled bitterly. This guy was very tough-talking, and he clearly didn't want the two of them to be dragged along like this without any explanation. He also worked hard to come up with this idea, but he insisted on dragging the matter to Hua Hua's head. Isn't this just trying to cover up the truth? What else could it be?
No matter how heroic her character is, she is still a woman. Duan Jin, who was looked at by several people and looked a little unnatural, blushed a little. He pushed Huang Qiong away who was about to hug him and said, "Okay, we didn't have enough trouble last night. We don't need you. No matter what, go and appease your flowers and plants. Leave the cigarette to us, what else do you have to worry about."
When Duan Jin pushed him, a rare hint of blush appeared on his still pretty face, which added to his charm. Huang Qiong ignored Duan Jin's polite refusal, but still held her in his arms and kissed her for a long time. Before leaving, he patted the beauty's butt dishonestly with his hand, which made Duan Jin's already blushing face turn even redder before he left laughing.
Huang Qiong's parting hand made Duan Jin's face even redder. Looking at this guy's back, he bit his silver teeth for a long time, turned to Situ Huanshuang, and said with some annoyance: "You are already a queen, and you didn't say you should take good care of him. Don't forget , you are his legitimate eldest wife. In this world, apart from my empress, I am afraid that you are the only one who can listen to your words."
Regarding Duan Jin's words, Situ Huanshuang sighed softly and said with a sad expression: "You and Sister He can't control him, how can I really control him? What's more, I am The position of queen is just a transition. I know his friendship. No matter how much pressure people in the world put on him, he will withstand it for me. But I can't really hurt him just because of me. .”
"Although I am not really that person's daughter, and even have a grudge against him for killing his father and humiliating his mother. But in the eyes of the world, I am still the daughter of a traitor to the king. Now that person is conquering cities and territories in the south of the Yangtze River, making trouble. His new emperor has ascended the throne. , but appointed a daughter who rebelled against the king to be the queen, how could the people of this world surrender? What’s more, those brothers and clan members who were already dissatisfied with his succession to the throne? "
"He is an eagle, and he will be a wise man. He cannot destroy the expectations of the people in the world because of a woman. He cannot destroy the results of his hard work over the years just because of me. I don't care what The position of queen, and I have never thought about being a queen. I just want to accompany him in peace. But now, maybe it is really time for me to leave."
