Chapter 135: Old Concubine Liang
After hearing Princess Liang's indirect explanation of Madam Xiao Wu's purpose, the Dowager Concubine snorted coldly and said, "Madam Yongyi is getting more and more confused as she grows older. In this world, men always make decisions. How can women have a say?"
"Since we have already agreed to let the Gan family girl marry into our family, if we treat her well, Xiao Ji might feel guilty and treat Zhuang's mother and son well."
"Now it's all over. My son left home in a rage. Zhuang has been a widow for so many years. Xiao Cheng has been without a father since he was a child. A good family has been torn apart."
"Instead of thinking about where the problem lies, they blame those women who have no choice."
"But once a concubine is brought into the mansion, there are plenty of opportunities to set up rules for them and teach them to understand the difference between superiors and subordinates, and between legitimate and illegitimate children."
"Even if she takes advantage of her favor to talk nonsense, if she can stand firm, can she break up a good family?"
Princess Liang smiled awkwardly and responded softly.
The concubine stopped to drink a sip of tea, paused and said, "Both children are good. If they are willing, it is not impossible to help them. I am worried about this matter. When the girl comes, I will ask her."
Princess Liang felt relieved and thanked him softly.
Princess Liang was not at all surprised by the Queen Mother's decision: old people like to act as matchmakers and watch young men and women who are in love finally get married.
It’s quite a sense of accomplishment.
Princess Liang opened her mouth and wanted to talk about the calming talisman that Madam Xiao Wu had asked her to give her.
But from what the Concubine said, it seems that she doesn't like the wife of the Earl of Yongyi. Because of the troubles in the Xiao Mansion, the Concubine has been angry.
If he mentions the calming talisman thrown away by Old Madam Xiao again, he will probably be scolded.
She used to be the concubine of Prince Liang and had two children, Zhou Yan and Zhou Wan. She was made the legitimate wife only after the death of Concubine Yuan.
He was originally intimidated by the majesty of the old concubine, and usually behaved in a humble and cautious manner in front of her.
I have to think about every word in my stomach for eight hundred times before I dare to say it out loud.
Now seeing that the concubine had a bad look on her face, she quietly swallowed the words that were about to come out of her mouth.
As soon as she finished speaking, the maid reported that the prince was coming.
Princess Liang quickly stood up and waited for the prince to pay his respects to the princess dowager before she came over to pay her respects.
The prince sat down and asked all the servants in the room to leave.
Princess Liang knew that the prince and the princess dowager had something to say, so she found an excuse and left.
The old concubine glanced at Prince Liang from the corner of her eye and snorted coldly, "What's going on?"
And sent everyone away.
Could it be that he has taken a fancy to another girl?
The old concubine said angrily: "You are four, five, ten years old. Your grandson is old enough to get married. You should control your temper."
Prince Liang said aggrievedly: "Isn't it that I, your son, have to follow your mother's teachings and carry out the great cause of carrying on the family line to the end?"
The old concubine glanced at him sideways, "Besides this, what else do you want to do?"
Prince Liang smiled, bent his arms and lay on the table, moved closer to the old concubine, and lowered his voice and said, "Mother, why didn't you tell me that Qin went to the farm to try to grow new crops?"
The old concubine snorted, "Why are you asking this all of a sudden? Do you have any ideas about that position?"
As soon as he finished speaking, Prince Liang's expression changed immediately.
He rolled and crawled off the couch, tiptoed to the screen behind the door, held his breath and listened for a while, then he let out a long sigh.
Every vassal state has the emperor's secret agents, and they will report to the emperor in secret everything the vassal states say and do, no matter how big or small.
Normally, the princes from various places seem to be extremely noble and powerful, but in fact, when they fart in their palaces, they have to cut their farts into several pieces.
Sitting back on the short couch, Prince Liang begged for mercy with a bitter face, "Mother, please forgive me. I am already so old. If this word gets out, wouldn't all the hard work I've put in over the past few decades be wasted?"
He lowered his voice and said slowly: "The emperor is in poor health now, and the second and third brothers are fighting to the death. If the crops this girl is trying to grow are successful..."
The old concubine withdrew her gaze, and remained silent with a calm expression.
Prince Liang sighed and said, "The emperor's attitude towards the princes of various places is unclear, and the position of the crown prince has not been settled yet. Several princes are trembling with fear and walking on thin ice. They are afraid that one day, a big knife will fall down."
He looked at the concubine and replied carefully, "I would like to ask mother to make a decision for me. Did I earn the credit myself or let others earn it?"
Both mother and son knew exactly what it would mean if the grain planting trial was successful.
The princes knew it very well.
Prince Liang added, "Yesterday at my mother's birthday banquet, the maid of the Qin residence told this matter in front of everyone. I'm afraid that those who are interested have already reported it to their respective masters."
He sighed and said, "Thunder suddenly rose from the sky, and clouds suddenly appeared in the clear sky. I'm afraid this year will not be very peaceful!"
The concubine narrowed her eyes slightly and suddenly changed the subject, "The sixth boy of the Xiao family seems to like the girl of the Qin family. But the wife of the Yongyi Earl pays more attention to family background. She asked Zhuang to come to the palace to let me feel out the Qin girl. In my opinion, the marriage of the sixth boy of the Xiao family will depend on the opinion of the virtuous concubine."
She sighed and said, "The girl from the Qin family is also a miserable person. Her parents died suddenly, leaving her alone and helpless."
"Wan'er and the girl from the Qin family get along well. This time, I was able to cure the red sores on my face thanks to that little girl. In the future, if the girl from the Qin family encounters difficulties, I will lend a hand if I can."
Prince Liang stared at his mother in a daze, blinking his eyes.
The Toffee let out a long "Hmm?"
Prince Liang quickly agreed, "Yes, I'll make a note of it."
Toffee rolled her eyes at him and snorted again.
Prince Liang suddenly had an idea: Yes, the death of Qin's parents was related to the second prince, and the fourth prince's people seemed to be involved as well, so Qin would never be able to have any relationship with the two princes, Prince Ning and Prince Yu, in this life.
The throne of King Liang would be downgraded to that of a prince of a county if it was passed down to his descendants. Even if he had made contributions, the throne would have nothing to do with him.
On the contrary, because of this achievement, he will be targeted by the emperor.
Or wait for the new emperor to take the throne and then put him under close surveillance.
Then find an opportunity and cut with a knife...
Madam Xiao looked down on Qin and would definitely not pass this news to Prince Jin.
However, the Xiao Mansion was in the vassal state of the Liang King, and they had frequent exchanges with the palace. In the eyes of others, the Liang King and the Jin King were probably considered to be in the same boat.
If the grain grown in the trial land of the King of Liang is given to someone other than the King of Jin...
No king likes a two-faced speculator.
It would be better to take this opportunity to show goodwill to King Jin.
But in this way, his Prince Liang's Mansion was completely tied to the Prince of Jin's boat.
It seemed beyond the plan, yet also expected.
Prince Liang sighed deeply and said, "I understand."
