A concubine enters the mansion? Reborn, three matchmakers and six engagements to marry the Prime Min
Chapter 178 It all depends on human effort
Concubine Xian's slender fingers lightly touched the pelvic floor, causing a layer of water to ripple.
"Even if it's nine percent fake and one percent real, I still have to plan it."
"It's better to believe that this kind of thing happened than to believe that it didn't happen. If she just wanted to enter the palace to serve the prince and made such a show, I will help her."
The prince is only one step away from the throne. The more this happens, the more cautious the concubine becomes. Every step you take must be carefully considered.
Jinxiu glanced at the engraving on the side, picked up the cotton towel and gently dried Concubine Xian's hands.
Then he asked softly: "Do you want Miss Su Er to take charge of the East Palace? No matter what I think, I feel that her status is a bit low, and I am afraid that she is not worthy of His Highness the Crown Prince."
Jinxiu knows best how much Concubine Xian is thinking about the prince's marriage. A family background like the second Miss Su's would not be considered by the empress at all.
"Joining the East Palace? It's just that the prince has many concubines. It doesn't matter whether her words are true or false, as long as she stays with the prince."
"As for the choice of Crown Princess, I am somewhat interested in that girl from the Song family." When Concubine Xian said this, her lips parted and she suddenly laughed.
Jinxiu was a little surprised. "Ms. Song's attitude towards the Majesty is so great that the Majesty has already shown mercy by not punishing her. Do you still want to honor her?"
The virtuous concubine had stood up at this time, holding a small bowl of millet in her hand, and teasing the parrot hanging under the beam.
"What do you know? The emperor has become more and more guilty of the late empress in recent years, and he has become more and more tolerant of the Song family."
"Song Zan is in charge of the Five Cities Military and Horse Department. Winning over the Song family is equivalent to winning over the power of the emperor and military generals."
"I know that the Song family thinks that I harmed the late empress, but it does not prevent Song Wanwan from marrying into the East Palace. It depends on human factors."
For the last four words, Concubine Xian emphasized her tone, and her eyes looked somewhat deep.
-----------------------
After leaving the palace, Su Qingyu took Shen Yue and Shen Ying directly back to the Shen family.
After getting off the carriage, she did not go back to the West Courtyard, but went to the old lady's Qingyuan Residence.
When she entered, the old lady was holding a booklet and looking at the words on it with a lens in her hand.
"What are you looking at, mother? She's so absorbed." Su Qingyu saluted and sat down opposite the old lady.
The old lady smiled and handed the booklet in her hand to her, "Are you back from the palace? You should also take a look. These are the candidates your sister-in-law has chosen for Ying'er to see."
"Ying'er's marriage should be settled. After her marriage is settled, she still needs to show it to Yue'er."
Su Qingyu opened the book and read it, but the old lady was still talking.
"I think Yang Wenshi's eldest son is good, but the Yang family doesn't have a matron now. Yang Wenshi's step-in-law has gone again, and it's hard to say what will happen to the inner house in the future."
"There is also the eldest son of Prince Zhao, who is also about the same age. However, the eldest son of Prince Zhao does not have a good reputation. I vaguely heard that he also raised an illegitimate wife."
"There is another person I like, that is, last year's new top scorer Han Jin. Although he comes from a poor family, his character and knowledge are good."
After Su Qingyu read the candidates, she closed the book and stopped talking.
He laughed twice more and said, "It's up to my mother and sister-in-law to make the decision on this matter. It's not easy for my wife to interfere."
The old lady was such a shrewd person, she could tell at a glance that Su Qingyu had something on her mind.
"You can say whatever you want without any worries." the old lady asked.
Su Qingyu pondered for a moment and then said, "My wife thinks that the second young lady may not be suitable to marry into a big family and become a clan wife."
The old lady was stunned, but she wasn't angry either.
"Oh? How did you say this?"
It stands to reason that a legitimate daughter from the Shen family can marry even a prince or noble. In today's book, there is no candidate who is the heir of a concubine. Basically, they are all the eldest sons of the family, and the last one is also the second son with outstanding talents and learning.
Su Qingyu told what happened in the palace today, and the old lady's expression changed accordingly.
"Mother, this is not a big matter, and my daughter-in-law can handle it. But the second young lady's move is really too much..."
Su Qingyu wanted to say stupid, but held it back. He continued: "Nowadays, when outsiders look at the Shen family, they all look envious. But the more this happens, the more it is like putting the Shen family on the fire. If you are not careful, there will be an abyss behind."
"The second young lady has such a temperament. If she really marries into a wealthy family, it is still unclear whether it will be a blessing or a curse for the Shen family."
The old lady's face became extremely dark, "How could this Shen Ying say such stupid things? Does she think she has had too many good days?"
"Fortunately, you handled it appropriately today, otherwise it would have been another troublesome matter."
Shen Zhixiu had violated the prince's taboo because of his marriage to Su Qingyu. At this time, it is really not appropriate to offend Concubine Xian.
The old lady thought for a while, then turned to tell Aunt Zhao, "Go and send a message. Give Shen Ying ten strokes of the ruler, and then let her kneel in the ancestral hall for three days."
After Nanny Zhao went down, the old lady looked at Su Qingyu again, "In your opinion, what kind of family should Shen Ying find?"
She agreed with Su Qingyu's words from the bottom of her heart. It was a good thing for a daughter to marry into a wealthy family, but she had to be able to live up to the high standards of marrying into a wealthy family. People like Shen Ying, who never thought before speaking or doing things, really brought disaster to the family, and it would be too late to regret it.
The Shen family now does not need to rely on their daughter's marriage, and every step must be taken steadily.
Su Qingyu listened to the old lady's question, thought for a while and said: "In my opinion, it is good to have a closer kiss. For example, the Yan family in Jinling and the Chen family in Wuling can see each other if they are suitable."
The Jinling Yan family is the eldest lady’s natal family, and the Wuling Chen family is the eldest lady Chen’s natal family.
These two families are both scholarly families and can be regarded as wealthy gentry. But they are all far away from the capital and have no real power.
Su Qingyu thought of the events of the Yan family in her previous life, and suddenly said: "I'm not familiar with the personnel of the Yan family. I only know that the second uncle of the Yan family has a second son. The third master even praised him a while ago, saying that he is extremely knowledgeable. .”
The old lady's expression changed when she heard this, "I know the person you are talking about will be in the next generation. I asked someone to find out, and they are a good match."
Su Qingyu thought, of course it's a good marriage. In his previous life, the fifth young master of the Yan family got married a year later, and beat his new wife to death half a year after the marriage. Everyone then realized that the fifth young master was gentle and polite on the surface, but in fact he was tyrannical and cruel. Before the marriage, he beat four concubines to death.
I heard that the new daughter-in-law was a well-known talented woman in Jinling who was well-educated and sensible. This matter caused a big fuss at that time. If Shen Ying marries her, she will be considered as saving a girl from a good family.
I thought so in my heart, but said gently: "My mother and sister-in-law have to make the decision on this matter, and what I think is not necessarily right."
The old lady patted Su Qingyu's hand lovingly, "You are already very good. You have done everything properly and thought everything through."
The mother-in-law and daughter-in-law talked about today's banquet in the palace again. Su Qingyu wanted to ask about the Song family and Xian Fei, but Mrs. Chen suddenly walked in.
"Mother, how did you choose? Who should we choose for Ying'er?"
