"The eldest princess is marrying the Qi family, a salt merchant."
When Mrs. Qin mentioned it a little bit, Lian Suisui understood it all at once.
Before Emperor Chen ascended the throne, he was not favored among the late emperor's princes. Emperor Chen's maternal family was poor and could not give him much help.
The fight for the heir is also a drain on financial resources. Emperor Chen must have made an agreement with the Qi family. Only low-status merchants don't care whether the mistress of the house can have children. What they need is the noble status of the eldest princess to help them quickly rise to the top. Celebrities in the capital.
And Emperor Chen needed money.
The eldest princess Huirong and the same mother as Emperor Chen used their own sacrifices to gain the honor, favor and wealth over the years.
The status of the Qi family is too low. At first, this marriage full of benefits was praised by the world with a veil of love, but the truth is not like this. For the sake of the royal family's face, the eldest princess Huirong has been complaining about her poor health for so many years. The reason is to live in seclusion outside the city.
Emperor Chen weighed Princess Hui Rong's kindness and specially left important matters such as the prince's selection of concubines to her to show that he valued her.
The eldest princess Huirong has not been in the public eye for a long time. No one knows that the eldest princess takes the opportunity of returning to Beijing to choose concubines for the princes, and she can even choose princes and concubines with truly good character.
Kill three birds with one stone.
Twists and turns, twists and turns.
"Mom, how do you grow your brains?"
Her mind is full of classical medicinal materials. It is said that there is a specialization in the art. Qin can guess the purpose of the eldest princess's banquet with just one sentence. She is indeed the best in house fighting!
"You're not too stupid."
Mrs. Qin breathed a long sigh of relief.
"The eldest princess asked me to help you. Actually, she asked me tactfully if you have any thoughts about the princess."
Lian Suisui's heart was lifted.
Her tone changed.
"I declined."
Lian Suisui felt relieved again.
Ups and downs in mood can easily shorten your life.
"Mom, I have no idea about the princess, you must make it clear to the eldest princess!"
Don't get married out of nowhere. She won't have anywhere to cry!
Qin's eyes fell on her face for a long time, and a faint smile appeared on her lips.
"If the eldest princess asks you, just tell the truth. Don't beat around the bush, lest others get the wrong idea."
There is nothing wrong with what she said. At least if Qin didn't explain it to her, she wouldn't think about it at all. If she said something that would misunderstand others, she wouldn't be able to clean it up even if she jumped into the Yellow River.
"Don't worry, mother, I understand."
A conversation between the mother and daughter brought the distance between them much closer. After talking about business, Lian Suisui chuckled, leaned over and took Qin's arm to act coquettishly.
"Mom, I was ignorant in the past and I embarrassed you. Don't be angry with me. I will definitely change in the future!"
With such a house fighting master beside her, she had to hug her thighs tightly and ask for advice on the survival rules of the house.
Fortunately, this person was her mother and not an enemy, otherwise she would not know how she died.
Mrs. Qin wasn't used to her closeness, so she scolded her with a straight face, but Lian Suisui tightened her grip, making her a little embarrassed.
"How decent it is to let others see you!"
Mrs. Qin said this, but her mood changed somewhat. Her daughter had not been close to her since she was a child. Later, when she grew older, she always opposed her, causing trouble and embarrassing her everywhere. She only hoped that she could cause less trouble. I don’t ask for the mother-daughter relationship with her.
Now it suddenly takes a turn for the worse.
"Tell me the truth, did you get into some trouble again?"
"Where is it, mother, I am under your nose every day, and just yesterday when I went out, you almost beat me to death with a whip. How dare I cause any trouble!"
"Mom, you have worked hard these past few years, and I will stand by your side from now on! If anyone dares to bully you, I will help you vent your anger!"
Qin has to worry about her own affairs alone, and also has to take care of a large family of concubines and concubine children. Will she be sad and tired, and will she be so tired that she has no one to talk to?
Her mother knows so much, why doesn't her father know how to cherish it?
"Madam, I went out with His Highness King Cheng and said that he would not have dinner at the house today at noon."
Mrs. Qin gave a faint hum, Lian Fangyu was just a minister of the Ministry of Etiquette, but he was busier than the head of the Ministry of Etiquette all day long!
"Mom, King Cheng and Xia Jing'er teamed up to harm me at the palace banquet. Why are dad still so close to him?"
"I know that King Cheng has a noble status, but we can just keep him at a respectful distance. There is no need to fawn over him."
Lian Suisui guessed, "Did my father take sides?"
Mrs. Qin smiled bitterly.
"If you can see it, how can I not see it? The emperor is in the prime of life and in good health. He has no plans to establish a prince for the time being. It would be detrimental to us to get involved too early."
"Why don't you advise dad?"
The smile on Qin's face suddenly disappeared.
"Sui Sui, don't trust your father too much."
"Why?"
Lian Suisui asked.
Mrs. Qin didn't say much, stopped talking, and ordered Aunt Fang to register the gifts from the eldest princess and send them to the warehouse.
Lian Suisui scratched her head and wanted to know what she said next, but her mother didn't tell her the reason until the end.
Gan.
Just like when I was in school, my best friend secretly told her during class, I have a gossip that I will tell you later.
Then, there was no more.
It was so tempting that she couldn't eat or sleep.
As soon as I closed my eyes, all kinds of speculations flashed through my mind.
Her father was an undercover agent sent by the royal family. After teasing her mother's feelings, he wanted to take the opportunity to break into the Qin family and dismantle the Qin family's power. After years of no progress, they unite to become kings and want to steal the military power of the Qin family?
Her father was a phoenix man who fell in love with her mother and wanted to use the power of the Qin family to climb up. Then he found that the Qin family didn't give him much help and got angry and retaliated against them?
Her father is an enemy spy, sneaking into the capital and stealing intelligence...
Even after Suisui thought about all the possibilities, he still couldn't fall asleep.
No, what was the last half of her mother's unfinished sentence?
…
Today, King Cheng comes to visit, and Miss Lian San is tossing and turning and unable to sleep.
Miss Lian San ran around in the middle of the night and seemed to be stimulated.
Miss Lian San wandered around in the middle of the night, giving acupuncture treatments to sleepwalking servants...
When I opened my eyes in the morning, among the messages sent by my subordinates, three out of ten were related to Lian Suisui.
"This Miss Liansan is full of energy, unlike ordinary people."
Shuying combined these messages to draw conclusions.
Chu Zhiyi held his chin and thought for a long time.
"Fan Ying's mission failed. Let him go to the execution hall to receive his punishment."
The task he assigned to Fanying was to find a way to tie Lian Suisui to his reputation.
What are the messages from subordinates?
Three sentences will make you a king.
Deserve punishment!
In order to test Lian Suisui, Fanying managed to get food poisoning and was finally saved by the doctor at Huichun Hall. Now he is still lying in bed nursing his health.
If you go to the execution hall to receive your punishment at this time, you must not lose half your life!
"Master, please give Fanying another chance. Everyone outside knows that Miss Lian San is scornful of you in the street. If we add more firewood, the rumors will definitely develop in the expected direction!"
Chu Zhiyi's toneless voice floated over.
"rumor?"
