"Filial piety? Is it filial piety or deliberately trying to please? Princess Han's eyelids are too shallow." Princess Duan covered her lips with a handkerchief and smiled slightly.
"You should just give birth to Prince Han's children and take care of the Queen Mother. When will it be your turn? Prince Han, as the new princess, do you always like to use this trick to deceive people? This habit is not good. .”
When Concubine Hua said this, she paused and smiled even more freely: "I'm afraid some people are not worthy of their virtue."
As soon as Concubine Hua said these words, the expressions of everyone present changed.
On the surface she was talking about Ji Wanrong, but in fact she was talking about Mo Jiecheng.
Mo Jiecheng married a carefree, ridiculous and generous princess. Not only was she unworthy of her virtue, but it was also Mo Jiecheng's fault.
She was alluding to the fact that Mo Jie was unworthy of the city's virtue and could not become a great person.
Mo Jiecheng is the eldest son, but he has never been able to become the crown prince. Originally, it was because of Concubine Hua's repeated obstructions, and because her father, Prince Duan, was even more favored by His Majesty.
Ji Wanrong listened to the harsh sarcasm in his ears and shook off the wrist that was tightly held by Mo Jiecheng.
She looked at Concubine Hua with an expressionless face, but her tone was neither humble nor arrogant: "In Concubine Hua's eyes, doesn't it mean that everyone's filial piety to the imperial grandmother is a deliberate attempt to please, and does not come from the heart?"
"As the saying goes, caring leads to chaos. My daughter-in-law wants to cure the imperial grandmother at all costs just because she has some medical skills. Could it be that Concubine Hua has never had such filial piety towards the imperial grandmother? So she doesn't understand her daughter-in-law's approach? "
After hearing what Ji Wanrong said, the queen's expression barely changed.
But Concubine Hua became angry. The queen in the palace did not fight for anything, and no one except Concubine Li dared to speak to her like this.
So she slapped the couch and spoke sternly to Ji Wanrong: "I heard that you have some medical skills as a three-legged cat, but the Queen Mother is a rich woman and has the best miraculous doctor in the world to treat her. , when is it your turn?”
"Today, I will leave my words here. In order to prevent your poor medical skills from harming the Queen Mother's body, if you try to use medical skills to treat the Queen Mother, you will be guilty of a death penalty. I will not let you go easily!"
After she said this, she smiled slightly and turned her head to the queen.
"Sister, this Ji has never studied medicine or had a master. I have never heard of her before. She only knows the Three-Legged Cat Kung Fu, and yet she has the audacity to want to cure the Queen Mother. This is what my sister said. , should be reasonable, right?”
Concubine Hua said this, and the queen could only nod.
"The treatment of the Queen Mother must be left to specialized people. If Ji uses the Three-Legged Cat Kung Fu to treat the Queen Mother, it will be the most ridiculous thing in the world. Xing Su has been a doctor since he was a child. Under Xing Su's care, the Queen Mother's health has gradually improved. To recover, you don’t need anyone else.”
"If you are filial, just say a few greetings from a distance at the banquet tomorrow."
The situation in front of her looked so familiar. It had happened to Mo Jiecheng a month ago, and in the end, Zhong Jinge and Mo Jiecheng had to beg her hard.
Since she was not sick and the Queen Mother was not the most important person to her, there was no need for her to worry about anything.
Ji Wanrong listened to everything expressionlessly, sneered in his heart, but did not speak again.
Seeing this, Concubine Li hurriedly changed the subject away from Ji Wanrong, "Speaking of filial piety, the eldest princess is the most filial, and she often takes care of the queen mother personally. But today, why has the eldest princess not entered the palace for so long? ?”
As she spoke, Ji Wanrong and Mo Jiecheng sat aside.
Princess Duan was somewhat familiar with the eldest princess, so she said, "The eldest princess went to Fahua Temple to listen to scriptures. Today's lecturer is Master Yuanjing from Fahua Temple."
Concubine Li nodded after hearing this: "It's her, no wonder..."
She seemed to want to say something more, but she remained silent on the origin of Master Yuanjing, and finally stopped talking.
After hearing this, Concubine Hua was obviously not interested: "Tomorrow is the queen's birthday, so there is no need to talk about her at this point. If the queen has nothing else to do, I will leave first."
After Concubine Hua said this, she stood up, blessed the queen, and left first.
Seeing this, the queen also said: "If there is nothing else, you all should go back."
The concubines left one after another, but Ji Wanrong was a little curious about the Master Yuanjing they were talking about.
I don't know who it is that makes all the concubines in the palace retreat and stop talking.
So she turned her head secretly to Zhou Zhiruo.
Zhou Zhiruo looked at her eyes and knew what she wanted to ask.
So she lowered her head furtively and secretly explained in Ji Wanrong's ear: "Master Yuanjing was married before he converted to Buddhism."
"Just being married to someone, and mentioning her name can make everyone shy away?" Ji Wanrong frowned in confusion.
"Not only did she get married, she also divorced. She was the first and only woman in the world who took the initiative to propose divorce. It is because of this that the female relatives in the capital never mentioned her name."
In Beili, where the folk customs are strict, it is a very shameful thing for a woman to be divorced. Many women even choose to commit suicide because they cannot bear the humiliation.
Master Yuanjing, on the other hand, dared to challenge her husband's family and chose to divorce her in public, making the matter a storm in the city and making it known to everyone. This was the first time in history.
Therefore, he is looked down upon by many women in the boudoir who consider themselves noble, and are even unwilling to mention Master Yuanjing's name.
But of course there are also women who admire Master Yuanjing’s unique courage and go to listen to her lectures every day.
Zhou Zhiruo's voice was very low: "And her reconciliation was handled single-handedly by the eldest princess despite the pressure of the late emperor, so she and the eldest princess still have a good relationship to this day."
The reconciliation arranged by the eldest princess?
When Ji Wanrong heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.
She had known that the folk customs in Beili were not open and that it would be very difficult to reconcile.
Unexpectedly, there was a precedent for reconciliation before her, and it was the eldest princess who had a relationship with her who personally arranged it.
When Ji Wanrong heard this, she was about to continue asking, but she heard the queen's voice ringing from her ears.
"Ms. Ji, do you know your guilt today?"
Ji Wanrong raised his head blankly and saw that all the concubines in the hall were gone, leaving only Concubine Li sitting there.
The faint smile on the queen's lips had also disappeared, and she was now looking at her coldly.
That look was the same as Mo Jiecheng looked at her before, filled with disgust.
Ji Wanrong's words today fully demonstrated her stupidity and despicability, making the queen feel that she had lost face in front of everyone.
Although she just brushed aside the matter in a few words, her impression of Ji Wanrong had already been greatly reduced.
Ji Wanrong felt that every sentence he said might be wrong in their eyes, so he didn't know which sentence was wrong.
So she stood up and apologized calmly: "Yes, my daughter-in-law knows she was wrong."
The queen listened and then looked at Gu Mingyue behind Ji Wanrong. There was a faint light in her dark eyes: "Since you know your mistake, I will no longer blame you."
"Jiecheng, I heard that you are busy with military affairs and have no one to take care of you when you return to the house. Mingyue happens to be my relative and her character is good. Why not make her a concubine and help you as soon as possible? leaf."
"If that's the case, I don't have to worry about you. No one knows whether you are warm or cold."
