The frosty relationship between Jinguo Grand Princess and her husband was not a secret in the imperial circle.
Otherwise, how dare Mr. Qiao and Ji Mingfei thumbed their noses at Jian Likuang, the Prince Consort?
In the past, Jinguo Grand Princess did not like Jian Likuang, but she still cared about his feelings in public for the sake of Jian Yiyou and Jian Xubai.
This time the Prince Consort was completely humiliated on his birthday. If it wasn’t for the fact that Jinguo Grand Princess was nearly fifty years old, the officials in the imperial court would think that she wanted to change her husband again.
Anyway, Jian Likuang was already disgraced.
He was the legitimate son of the original wife of Jian Pingyu, Elder Duke of Yan. Although his mother, Elder Lady of Yan Madam Duanmu died young, his stepmother, Madam Wen, who came from a humble family treated him as her own child and loved him very much because she never ex
Jinguo Grand Princess was scolding her son now. She did not know that when Empress Su received the news in the temporary palace, she looked quite indifferent, “In the early days, Changxing took away other’s lover by force, so not only the outside world was talking about her, Jinguo also felt very dissatisfied with her. Pei Yourui grew up under the eyes of Jinguo, so even if Changxing was her niece, Jinguo was indignant at the injustice done to Pei Yourui. Now Changxing has paid for her insolence for several times, and it may not be a bad thing. In the future, Jinguo will treat her better!”Her trusted maid was worried about Princess Changxing, “It’s just that Her Highness suffers injustice.”“It’s better to suffer injustice at present than to suffer injustice forever in the future!” When Empress Su heard the speech, her eyes showed a flash of distress. But soon her expression hardened and she said in a deep voice, “In the past, when Noble Consort Shentu and
The next day when Jinguo Grand Princess arrived at the temporary palace, Empress Su said first before she could mention this matter, “Jinguo, you’ve come just at the right moment. I want to ask for your advice!”Without giving Jinguo Grand Princess the chance to speak, she sent her subordinates to take some portraits, “Prince of Zhao has grown up. It’s time to discuss his marriage. These days I’ve been looking for girls from several families for him, but I cannot make a choice, so I haven’t told him yet. Can you give me some advice? “Hearing this, Jinguo Grand Princess was noncommittal. She only took these portraits and looked at them one by one. The girls in the portraits are either pretty, childish but graceful, or cherubic. The names and official positions of their fathers and brothers were written at the bottom of their portraits. In terms of appearance and family background, they were indeed the perfect candidates for the Princess Consort. Obviously,
Song Yixiao instantly invited her into the room and ordered her maids to withdraw after serving tea. Then she told her the whole story, “I don’t want to hide the truth. My mother-in-law intended to marry off Yourui to Helou Xiuzhuan (Helou Duhan) in the past. However, it is less than a year after Grand Secretariat Pei passed away. Yourui is so broken-hearted that she doesn’t want to talk about her marriage. Hence, Xubai and I have been in contact with Helou Xiuzhuan several times and know his temperament. He may not be to Princess Yushan’s liking. We want to tell the Virtuous Consort about this originally. The problem is that we don’t have much contact with her, so it will be brusque for us to say this hastily. That’s why I decide to write to you.”Jiang Muting pondered, “In this way, not only Yushan keeps thinking about Su Shaoge, but Helou Xiuzhuan doesn’t like Yushan either.”Of course, she understood that the so-called “not be to Princess Yushan’s likin
The next day, as expected, Qiu Shuxia denounced the Crown Prince openly, saying that “He is nepotistic, mediocre and incompetent, and can’t even control over his bodyguard. How can we entrust the state to him?” The faction of the Eastern Palace, who were worried about the Crown Prince’s injury, had not yet considered how to rebut him when Emperor Xianjia, who hadn’t shown up for a long time, once again stepped forward to help the Crown Prince circuitously!He first summoned Prince of Wei and Prince of Zhao to the palace and scolded them for a few trivial things. Then he announced that they would be fined their official salary for half a year!For Prince of Wei and Prince of Zhao, it’s nothing to lose their salary for half a year. After all, neither of them was short of money. It didn’t matter if they were fined for half a year or ten years.However, the attitude of the emperor towards this matter made people who supported their fight for the th
“His Majesty is putting me in a dilemma!” A candle on the top of the gilded candlestick glowed suddenly like a flower. According to local folklore it was an auspicious omen. Gu Shao, who was holding a Go stone in the light, did not wear a joyful expression. On the contrary, he showed a bitter smile, “It is obvious that the Ministry of Personnel, the Ministry of War and the Ministry of Revenue are of great importance for the fight of the throne. Now two of them are under the command of the Crown Prince, and the Ministry of Revenue also begins to fall into the hands of him. In fact, Jin Suke in the Ministry of Personnel chose to turn to the Crown Prince because he failed to teach his children in a proper way and thus was caught out!”“What’s more, what his children have done has been spread out partly before, so it cannot be seen as a vulnerable point!”“Even though Jin Suke is still working for the Crown Prince, he may not be loyal to him if the Crown Prince
According to the rules on the boat, the boatman must rescue anyone drowning in the water, regardless of the social status of the victim.Now the boatman only claimed that he found a person floating on the water who looked like a noble person without mentioning saving the drowning person. Obviously, he must have confirmed that the person was dead.Encountering a floating corpse before they started enjoying the boat ride was definitely not an agreeable thing, but it was not the boatman’s fault. After all, the person in the lake was nicely dressed indeed. No wonder he didn’t dare to pretend that he didn’t see the corpse. The victim was wearing a craped coat inlaid with the gold wire and decorated with the linked-pearl pattern, and a curving-front silk robe with the pattern of sihe ruyi cloud. She also wore a brocade belt around her waist. The thumb-size pearls on the belt glistened in the sun so brightly that they were really dazzling. Under the robe, a piece
Madam Lu recognized what she implied and had a glint of sympathy in her eyes, saying with a soft voice, “It’s given by your father indeed. I’ve never seen the box before, so I don’t know what’s inside either. Your father handed it over to me and only said you should keep it well. Maybe it is a keepsake?”“Is it?” Song Yixiao stared at the box and didn’t take it until she hesitated for a while, but immediately, she passed it to Jinxun by the bedside, gesturing for her to put it away. “Thank you for visiting me. I wonder how the brother and sisters are doing.”“They are doing fine.” Madam Lu was quite disappointed to see that Song Yixiao didn’t open the box to her face. Then she tried not to show her feelings by stroking her hair and then pretended that nothing had happened, saying, “By the way, back then, Yijiao and Yiyao couldn’t be safely born without your help!”Song Yixiao replied, “You and they have been blessed, and Aunt Yun is an excellen
“The boatmen were the first to see and also to retrieve the corpse from the water.” It’s OK if Yuedeng hadn’t mentioned this matter. When she mentioned it, Jian Xubai frowned slightly. It’s rotten luck to meet a floating corpse when people went to the lake for sightseeing, let alone that Song Yixiao was pregnant.Naturally, he didn’t want to get involved in it at all. He thought for a while, and said to Yuedeng, “We just happened to hear of this and ordered them to salvage the corpse. In fact, we are confused about the whole matter. Now our mansion is trouble-ridden, and I cannot move around freely because of my injury. So you can just let the boatmen go with them! “Hearing this, Yuedeng transmitted the message to the subordinate from Prince of Yi’s mansion. That man was naturally dissatisfied, but he didn’t dare to say anything, so he had to take the boatmen back to report on the completion of his task.It is unknown that how he explained thi
At this moment, the Grand Princess of Jin's residence.Jia Yao gently picked up the silver pot on the table and poured warm rose dew into the giltsilver begonia marigold, the sound of the flower dew entering the marigold seemed particularly silent against the backdrop of the whirling winter rain outside the window.The north wind rolled through the court, lifting up a snowy mist, and the obviously warm springlike interior was flooded with a chill for no apparent reason.She suddenly heard the sound of a rustling of the Chinese tent, and busily set aside the silver pot that had only been halfpoured, turning to check just in time to see the palefaced Grand Princess of Jin rising tremblingly to her feet."Is Your Highness thirsty?" Jia Yao took three steps to the edge of the couch and held the master, on one side taking a hidden bag from the side and padding it behind the Grand Princess so that she could lean more comfortably, and on the other side she said wit
With this sudden question, even though Jian Xu Bai has always been deeply favored by the Empress Dowager, he could not help but feel creeped out!He was stunned for a moment before he got up and left the couch, kneeling down in front of the Empress Dowager, and said in a deep voice ''Why did Imperial Grandmother make such a remark? I don't dare to say that I don't have any selfishness, but I have never thought of usurping the throne! The reason why I will support His Highness King Su to ascend to the throne, apart from worrying about Second Auntie, is also because His Highness King Su has the qualifications of a wise ruler, and can succeed the late Emperor's divine warrior!"Taking a deep breath, he knocked heavily on the ground, "I never thought of betraying Lu!""Good boy, mourning home but just so ask, why do you have to be so solemn?" The dowager empress looked at him with complicated eyes, bent down to help each other, sighed, "Mourning family naturally believ
In fact, the large empire, to say that no one can really stop that so far still silent Yu Qinghan may not be the problem is, whether the empire can hold, related to the entire Qingzhou Su's future!Therefore, the first and foremost thing that the candidate for guarding the city should do is to make the Su family trust him, otherwise, even if he is talented, the Su family will not be able to give him this important task!And because of the Marquis of Yan's support for King Su, even though there is now a disconnect between the Su family and the Su family, they are unanimous on the big issue of supporting King Su to ascend to the throne so Su Shaoge immediately considered Lv Qinghong of the Marquis of Yan after having no one at hand himself.As for the other generalship talents in the city, Su Shaoge could listen to their advice, but would definitely not give the forbidden army directly to their command!Now Su Bofeng said, if Lu Qinghong can't hold up Yu Qing
Uncle Lu is Lu Qinghong, the divine archer on the Wuhuan battlefield back in the day, Jian Xubai's right hand man although he is old, but also because of his age, even if Lu Qinghong has never been a commander before, in this kind of battle of defending the city, his rich experience in the sand field is the newcomer group of forbidden army is currently in urgent need of.After all, even Yang Jue himself, aside from yesterday's battle to seize the palace, had never experienced a real war.... In fact, last night s seizure of the palace could not be considered a war at all, but rather a sneak attack of a heavier nature.After understanding Su Shaoge's intention, Jianxu Bai pondered for a while and said, "Uncle Lu can lend it to you, however, he can't go with you right away, I have to give him a few words of advice!"Su Shaoge breathed a sigh of relief and said, "I should!""Uncle Lv, in your opinion, is Su Zhiyong really not confident in relying on Yang
Originally, according to Su Shaoge's intention, with Song Yixiao to take away the Jiangnan Hall secret guards "with the wind" after the token, directly erase Song Yixiao in two times to get together the token through the "with the wind" of the master, nailed Gu Shao.So send the Su family early infiltration into the "with the wind" people in fact, not necessarily "with the wind" in the people, anyway, the secret guards in addition to the internal no one knows, "Dai Feng" things to kill people are the same. "Dai Feng" to do things to kill people, recorded in the "with the wind" account is the same.Anyway, when Yang Jue led his troops into the palace, the heads that were thrown in front of He Wenqiong were all killed by "Gu Shao's secret guards from the Song family".In addition to dragging Gu Shao into the water, forcing him to help stabilize the situation and people's hearts afterwards, this is also to create the false impression that "you see, Minister Gu actual
This sudden palace change lasted until the faintest light of day, when the sound of swords and guns shouting and killing gradually subsided.But the panic in the imperial capital, from the royal family and officials down to the peddlers, could not end yet the day had already dawned, but the gates of the imperial capital's workshops still had no intention of opening."There are two pieces of news, one good and one bad." Su Shaoge reappeared in the flower hall of Marquis Yan's mansion, his face unable to tell if he was happy or angry, "The good news is that last night's takeover of the palace went very smoothly, inside and outside of the imperial city, no, it should be within the imperial capital, it's all already within our grasp!"But the bad news is very bad, "The forbidden troops sent to Wei's house missed their mark, allowing Wei Xi to escape up the city wall and let down at night!"If it was just one Wei Xi, Su Shaoge wouldn't be worried, the problem is,
After a moment of silence in the hall, Bell said in a hard tone, "Then why did Grandma hand over the 'Follow the Wind' token to Second Duke Su just now? In case he took it ...""Have you noticed?" Song Yixiao's gaze was icy cold as he said, "I only gave him the token, and he didn't ask for anything else I remember when I only had half of the token in my hand, I had asked him for advice on the matter of the Six Valves' secret guards, and he said that the token could first and foremost only be used by the head of the family, and only by the head of the family who had reached the age of the bundle of hair! Of course I am the only one left in the Jiangnan Hall's direct line now, so of course this rule is not so strict. But, he's neither under me nor is he anyone of mine, and he can actually mobilize 'Follow the Wind' with just the token! What do you think that means?!"Bell was slightly lost in thought and said ''So there are Su family members in the 'Follow the Wind'? But
Su Shaoge mildly said, "Of course it's useful when your father gifted the dark guards to Gu Shao, although it wasn't announced to the public, my Su family heard about it."He paused here, giving Song Yixiao a moment to think, before continuing, "So if there is a 'Follow the Wind' out there right now, it's always easier to do the aftermath, I don't know what Grandma thinks?"Song Yixiao stroked the jade bracelet on her wrist and mused.She understands the meaning of Su Shaoge's words, the socalled "I have heard of the Su family", meaning that they have the evidence of Song Yuan to Gu Shao's gift of secret guards, then this interception of He Wenqiong, as long as the "with the wind" is involved, regardless of whether the order comes from the Song Yixiao or Gu Shao, will be credited to Gu Shao's head in the end! The final result will be put on Gu Shao's head!So if you hold Gu Shao's handle, you can coerce Gu Shao to help the aftermath then the aftermath will
He Wenqiong is very disappointed to look at the screen outside the granddaughter's silhouette, although He Xiuyi did not enter the palace before, with his grandfather in fact not see a lot, but in the end is the eldest granddaughter, He Wenqiong occasionally listen to his son and daughterinlaw mentioned to He Xiuyi's character is still an understanding of the granddaughter of the broken not have the guts to join the conspiracy to kill the eldest Princess of Changxing things.The problem was that when the palace maid accused He Xiuyi of being displeased with Empress Su, in full view of everyone, instead of immediately retorting, He Xiuyi exuded a clear sense of trepidation!Now who doesn't know that she did express her displeasure with Empress Su?"This child is still too young and has experienced too little!" He Wenqiong sighed inwardly and decided to divert the blame he asked to reexamine the scented sachets made by Ms. Jiang, and questioned whether the scented s
