"Why is the old lady like this? Eunuch Chai, help the old lady up quickly." Concubine Huigui looks about fifty. She can become the last palace champion. She does not have the title of queen, but she has maintained the status of queen for twenty years. , and finally her son came to power, and this one was not that simple. So she smiled when she came in, showing her kindness in every aspect.
You must know that many of the four princes and eight princes of Daishan's generation grew up together with the old saints. Those old people have more face in the palace, otherwise, the royal family will not be so beautiful. For these old people, even Princess Huigui Don’t dare to go too far.
Eunuch Chai stepped forward with a smile, helped Ou Mengmeng up, and helped her sit down. Ou Mengmeng took the handkerchief and gently pressed the sweat on her forehead, and smiled apologetically at the concubine.
The little eunuch gave the jade Guanyin as a gift. Concubine Hui looked at the jade Guanyin and then looked up at Ou Mengmeng.
Concubine Huigui has been the imperial concubine for twenty years, and her son is the new king again. There is no shortage of good things. Looking at this Jade Guanyin now, what I think about is that what the old lady wants to ask for is not too small. .
"It was a dowry from my wife who was a worker from the south. When my father, Lao Baolinghou, came to Beijing with Taizu, Taizu found it from the inner treasury and gave it to my father. Legend has it that he was an old worker from the previous dynasty, and my father gave it to my wife. But my wife is blessed. Bo, after worshiping her for many years, I still feel that placing her next to the empress will complement each other." Ou Mengmeng said hurriedly and respectfully.
"The old saint has always been kind to the old minister's family. I don't dare to ask the old lady like this. But what kind of trouble did you encounter?" Concubine Huigui frowned slightly.
From the old concubine's point of view, what Ou Mengmeng was actually saying was that when the old man entered the capital with Taizu, the Marquis of the Shi family had the title of civil servant, which was not as big as the Duke of the country, but it had high gold content. The important point was that the protector of their family was Linghou is hereditary and irreplaceable. And she is the only daughter of the first generation of Bowling Marquis. Even in the current Baolinghou Mansion, words still work. But now there are two princes in the Shi family, and Zhongjing Hou Shi Ding is one of his son's arms in the army. Although he and Baolinghou are not biological brothers, they are also the old lady's nephew.
"Your Majesty, my only daughter passed away a hundred days ago." Ou Mengmeng waited for a while, then trembled at the corner of her mouth and said softly.
The concubine was stunned for a moment. She didn't expect the old lady to say Mrs. Lin. I've been dead for a hundred days and are you talking now? Think about it, pretending not to know: "Mrs. Lin from Jiangnan Salt Class?"
"Yes! She's only forty! My wife's only daughter, the whole family loves her like a treasure. Now I have left a six-year-old orphan girl. She is gone. My wife, a white-haired person, has not been able to see her for the last time. ." Ou Mengmeng didn't shed tears, mainly because she really didn't have that kind of sad emotion. But thinking about Jia Mu's memory, her mood is sympathizing. Think about it, in Jia Mu's memory, she is full of anger towards Lin Ruhai. Why did my daughter die? If I hadn't gone to Jiangnan with you, how could my daughter have died? die? Thinking of that, her whole body started to tremble, "The last time I saw my wife was seventeen years ago, when she followed Lin Hai to Jiangnan to take office."
"Old Madam!" Concubine Hui was even more confused. This old lady wouldn't bring a Jade Guanyin over and ask her to dismiss Lin Hai from office, would she? I really can't do this myself.
"I'm sorry, your Majesty, I've lost my composure." Ou Mengmeng lowered her head, as if she was choking, and swallowed the lump in her throat. The bitterness in her heart at this time should come from Jia Mu herself. She should She really loves her daughter. After a pause and thinking about it, she stood up tremblingly again, walked slowly in the middle and knelt down again, "Your Majesty, I really have something to ask for when I come today."
"Old lady, for your granddaughter?" Concubine Hui thought. She had guessed before that the old lady was for her granddaughter Jia Yuanchun, but at this time, she suddenly realized that this was not the reason she thought.
"Your Majesty, you have learned from me!" Ou Mengmeng nodded, as if she had made great determination, "I want to take my granddaughter back, and please forgive me and show mercy."
Ou Mengmeng fell to the ground again. In fact, what she had prepared for these words before was, "Please forgive me, allow my granddaughter to leave the palace early, and allow her to marry on her own." '
But I just saw that Concubine Hui spoke without embellishment, and I also knew that this woman was used to being strong and didn't bother to talk around others, so I just followed her thoughts and went straight to the point. I promise not to let you guess.
"According to the palace rules, as long as female officials and maids have served in the palace for five years, they can apply for marriage by leaving the palace on their own. Will the old lady find a good match for Miss Jia?" Concubine Hui put her hands on her knees and asked after thinking about it.
They are all masters with nine twists and turns in their intestines. She didn't believe that the Jia family would pay such a high price for the sake of a lost love between ancestors and grandchildren. Then it can only be said that there is a better prospect waiting for her than being a noble for the emperor.
Ou Mengmeng raised her head and said after a while, "My wife's daughter died less than a hundred days ago. The children must serve a small purpose."
"A married woman, you don't have to be like this, right?" Concubine Hui was a little annoyed, and she felt deeply that Mother Jia was lying to her.
"The granddaughter of the Lin family was brought to the capital yesterday." Ou Mengmeng said softly.
"Yes, the eldest daughter without a mother is still the first among the five. Well done, old lady." Concubine Hui suddenly realized that she brought her daughter over. The girl had to observe full filial piety, so the whole family did not talk about it for three years. There was no drumming, but the nephews and nieces served their aunt for nine months, which was necessary to make the girl feel better.
He nodded, lowered his head to think about it, and smiled. After all calculations, he didn't expect that the old lady would actually come to ask for one. She just happened to be able to take charge of the matter. So is this old lady really a mature woman?
Although she felt unhappy, she still had to comply, because the palace regulations stated that even if the Duke of Rong's Palace did not apply, Yuanchun himself said that they would have to be released from the palace. It was because he was afraid that there would be too much resentment in the palace that he deliberately designed this rule. She was in charge of palace affairs, and it was within her powers to let the female officials come out of the palace. And the old Duke’s wife specially came to beg her. If she didn’t let him go, she would be ignoring him.
When Yuanchun entered the palace to be elected, the old sage wanted to kick Jia Zheng and the others to death. He and Daishan were close friends. But if you sent his granddaughter to the palace, the old sage would not think it was a sign of loyalty to him. But I felt like I was forcing him.
Although her status is neither high nor low, if she is pointed out as a good match, what will the man's family think? Referring to the prince as a concubine, this is also a problem. He does not want his old friend's family to be involved in beheading.
After much deliberation, she was asked to serve as a female official in Concubine Hui's palace, helping Concubine Hui with some clerical and management work. After a few years, they will be released soon. However, in the past few years, there have been many things in the palace, and many things have been delayed.
Concubine Huigui did not want to give Yuanchun to her son. When she was not in power, she thought the Jia family was useless. When I got to the position, I felt that Yuanchun was a bit older, and his appearance was not outstanding. He was just an embarrassing existence. If he gave it to his son, he might even think that he was sending an informant to him. Now it happened that the Jia family came to ask for help, so she could just go down the slope and donkey.
