Mrs. Pin, one of the Red House

After hearing Zhao's words, Wang felt relieved, and said, "I knew you were a decent person."

This remark made Monk Zhao Shizhang puzzled, and then he realized that he pulled Wang Shi's sleeve and said with a smile: "Come on, why are you so boastful?"

"Speaking of it, is there any news from the Wei family? There is still no explanation from the court?" Wang knew that Zhao's father was a great Confucian with disciples everywhere, so the news was very well-informed.

Now that Xiangyun is getting older, and she lives at home without a father or a mother, even if it is popular in this dynasty to marry later, her marriage is kept coming and going, which really arouses criticism.

In addition, now that Lin Xi is still in court, he has brought back a pile of gold, silver and jewels, but there is no trace of King Su yet.

Zhao's smile deepened, "Prince Wei is now quite a figure in the East Palace, not only the Prince loves her, but it is said that Concubine Xu also regards her as a confidant."

"That child Ruozhu is a good friend after all," Wang said with a smile, and the two walked to the driving place together, "As long as Xue Cifu stays alive for a day, Concubine Wei will be the first person in the East Palace."

But she changed the subject, "Xue Cifu's daughter is Mrs. Wei Yansheng, but Xue Cifu has been pressing Wei Yansheng not to join the cabinet, but now the emperor is old, and I heard that he plans to abdicate to enjoy life, but you Do you think that if this is the case, is it possible for Wei Yansheng to join the cabinet this time?"

"Wei Yansheng and Xue Cifu have different political views." Mrs. Zhao shook her head, and the red earrings swayed lightly, shining brightly under the sunlight, and they were very beautiful. It is to support sailing south. If it is really like what you said, at least it is impossible to replace the position of chief assistant immediately. Moreover, Wei Yansheng is of another faction when it comes to political views, and let me tell you, Concubine Wei has ideas , but she is more of a class of her own."

"At that time, I'm afraid she will suppress her father." Mrs. Zhao twirled the bracelet on her wrist, "I guess, even if Wei Yansheng can enter the cabinet, it is unlikely that he will be the first assistant."

Wang said with a smile: "In the final analysis, Concubine Wei and Xue Cifu are people of the same line. She suggested to Concubine Xu that the imperial court should encourage wealthy businessmen to go to southern Indonesia and other places to issue bank accounts, instead of buying bank accounts and monopolizing imperial merchants for their own. , I’ve also heard about it, it’s actually a good idea, and he’s a smart person.”

"You also said that she has brains. Did you hear that she discussed with Concubine Xu about opening a women's school?" Mrs. Zhao glanced at the east side disdainfully, then raised her chin, "You don't know, the crown prince acquiesced, and Concubine Xu even agreed. I told my dad myself."

Then he said a little proudly: "I was there that day, and it was Concubine Wei who let Concubine Xu come out behind my back."

Wang was taken aback for a moment, then shook her head, "Concubine Wei is a bit too rebellious."

Nowadays, girls from aristocratic families read a lot and can write poems, but the mainstream thinking outside is that a woman's lack of talent is virtue, and there are really few who show off their talents openly.

"The crown prince is in poor health. Concubine Xu comes from an innocent background. It is said that she doesn't even know a few characters." Mrs. Zhao sighed softly, and said in a contemptuous but sad tone: "One concubine, one concubine, three Zhaoyis in the East Palace. Si Jieyu, when the time comes, who do you think will tell the truth? Concubine Xu has no one in front of her, her eyes are darkened, it's because Concubine Wei dare not say anything."

Mrs. Wang sighed, looking at the grape pattern on her sleeve, which symbolizes many children and blessings, but she couldn't help but think of Brother Xian, who was born by Tan Yun, who can now babble, and her heart sank.

After all, there was a concubine's eldest son, even if the maid gave birth to a son, the mother would die, but this is not a problem.

She subconsciously looked at Mrs. Zhao and thought of Xiangyun's father.

Xiangyun's father was a concubine, and he was the son of the eldest son of Shi, who was amazing and brilliant at that time. His literary skills are self-contained, and his martial arts skills can move the world with a single sword. The generals of the third rank are all commanders, and they are really ministers in a sense.

But because of this, Mrs. Zhao and her were suppressed by Mrs. Zhang for many years at home.

From the historian's point of view, the Wang family had to be grateful to this uncle who was a concubine. At least Shi Ding and Shi Nai benefited a lot from it, and were greatly supported by Shi Nai's colleagues that day.

It's a pity that from the perspective of the Zhao family and the Wang family, after all, the old Hou Ye really moved to replace the concubine with the concubine.

"In today's world, the descendant is not the descendant, and the concubine is not like the concubine."

Zhao said with a smile: "Nowadays, after all, people from the north don't pay attention to this."

Talking, the two came to the front of the car. Seeing that Xiangyun, Ningyun and others were still talking to Baochai and Tanchun, they ordered the servant girl to go over to greet them, and the three of them came over.

"What are you talking about, so happy?" Seeing that Ning Yun and Lan Yun were still whispering, the two of them were half a step behind Xiang Yun, occasionally seeing Lan Yun constantly laughing, so she asked curiously.

"It's nothing," Lan Yun clapped his hands and smiled, then lowered his head and got into the eight-horse marquee.

It just so happened that Bin Lan wanted to reach out to help Ning Yun get into the carriage. As long as Xiang Yun was here today, she did not ride in a carriage with Mrs. Wang as usual, but sat in a carriage with Xiangyun and Lan Yun alone. Without thinking about this sentence, she pulled the curtain to decide whether to go up or not, so she explained: "Mother, do you remember the peach blossom feast that big sister said a few days ago? It's already past May now," she looked at Xiang Yun smiled, "Could it be called the Lotus Banquet?"

Xiangyun stuck out his tongue, "Third sister, please forgive me, I really forgot."

Seeing Xiangyun's small movements, Mrs. Zhao suddenly had the urge to kill her head, and said with a straight face: "A girl should look like a girl after all."

Xiangyun lowered his head and said nothing, stirring the handkerchief.

Mrs. Wang quickly smoothed things over, "We're all a family, it's fine."

Seeing that Mrs. Zhao looked unhappy, Ning Yun hurriedly called Lan Yun and Xiangyun to get into the car.

"Why didn't you see Yuzhen today?" Upon returning home, Lan Yun asked curiously without changing her clothes.

Ning Yun smiled, "Although both of these two families are surnamed Lin, think about it. Although Dingguohou's family has a weak connection, they are basically senior members of the second rank, and they are all in the capital. Most of them are the governors of the three provinces from the first rank, and the people in Gusu, except for Lin Buzheng, the fifth house, have some prospects, are basically either extinct or useless. The grievances of these lifetimes add up. Meeting each other is nothing less than talking."

She couldn't just tell Lan Yun that the Gusu people offended the Lin family in the capital, and they were almost killed.

Lan Yun didn't understand at first, but after thinking about it, he seemed to have come to his senses, "You mean the entanglement between the two ancestors has continued to this day, but Lin Zheng's full moon wine, Mrs. Zheng and Yuzhen are all genuine It's over."

"It's all about saving face." Hearing Lan Yun's words, Ning Yun couldn't help laughing, "Cao Ah concealed a lot of secret stabbings at Liu Xuande in the past, but don't they still call each other brothers when they meet?"

Xiang Yun waved his hands indiscriminately, "What a mess, I just want to sleep after listening to it." Then he begged Lan Yun and said, "I want to return the banquet to Sister Tanchun, can you invite the three of them over?"

Lan Yun couldn't help it, "Okay, whatever you want, you can do whatever you like, I don't bother to talk to you."

Ning Yun also thought it was funny to see them bickering, so Bin Lan stepped forward to wait for her to untie the shawl embroidered with gold and silver threads before sitting opposite Lan Yun.

Xiang Yun clapped his hands, the bracelet on his wrist ding-dong touched the golden unicorn on his chest, and there was a crisp sound, and he squeezed beside Lan Yun, "I know that loving my sister is the best."

"Love my sister? When will you stop talking, tell me." When Lan Yun heard this, not only raised her eyebrows, "I love my sister all day long, I love my sister, I love my brother, I love my wife, I'm ashamed of you panic."

She raised her hand and pinched Xiangyun's face, "Second, it's not love." Then she pointed to herself, "Second sister, say it again."

"Two?" Ning Yun couldn't help smiling slightly.

Lan Yun realized that he had made a slip of the tongue, so he flicked his sleeves and sat facing the north window. At this time, the spring is beautiful, the willows are swaying, and the swallows are passing by the artificial lake, causing ripples. The chilly wind is blowing, which is also very comfortable. Said to Ning Yun: "Your mouth is becoming more and more tricky by Miss Lin."

Ning Yun smiled and said, "Actually, I've always been quite tricky."

Lan Yun pushed the kang table, and stretched out his hand to squeak Ning Yun, "I tell you, your face is really invulnerable."

Xiangyun was watching the excitement, and was suddenly squeaked, and smiled and went to squeak Lan Yun, "I told you to bully me, and I won't come back?"

Xiangyun and Ningyun attacked together, Lan Yun finally couldn't bear to tell her, "Good sister, good sister, I was wrong."

Only then did Ning Yun let her go, and sat aside with a smile.

She also had a fleeting time in her previous life, and the sisters joked about it, but in the end it was just a dream in Nankey, and the fragrance was scattered, and I don't know where the soul is now.

Looking at Sister Xiangyun Lanyun, she thought of her sisters, her children.

She and her sisters have fought and joked, married and died, sold and sold, each individual's fortune naturally has its own fortune, but in the end it was just a handful of loess, and the beauty was buried .

Lan Yun's words interrupted Ning Yun's dreaming.

"Tell you a serious thing," Lan Yun was still laughing, and said out of breath: "One day the princess went to my grandfather's house and discussed it with my grandfather, saying that the academy should open a women's school. Now I heard that The crown prince also agrees, so it’s just a matter of writing off.”

Xiangyun said: "That's a good relationship." Then he said: "His Royal Highness is still a wise man..."

"Look, at the beginning it was said that fame and wealth are dust, and at the end it was said that people are wise. This is really... well, to use a common saying, it is to shoot... a horse..." Lan Yun laughed and hid back.

Xiang Yun yelled at her, not allowing Lan Yun to finish speaking.

Ning Yun watched them fight, but there was a rare solemnity in his expression.

She suddenly wondered, why do people subconsciously attribute credit to men?

Even if it was the crown princess's idea, everyone would say at the time that it was the crown prince's willingness to accept advice.

As for the story behind it, people left at that time, and the rest of it was just made up by others. Presumably Tai Shiling would give the credit to the crown prince with a swipe of his pen. When a person from a certain place was born and when he died, there are only a few strokes.

Ning Yun suddenly wondered what her children would say about her?

How would others judge her?

She kind of sympathizes with the princess.

Presumably now she is just a lonely ranking in the ancestral hall, with three incense sticks in front, and a few words of Yipin Gaoming Gao Lishi written on the ranking.

Even if it is her daughter, in the history books in the future, she will be nothing more than a certain imperial concubine, a certain imperial concubine at a good point, and a certain concubine at a bad time, Li Shi, the wife of her mother, a scholar Gao Feng.

No one will remember who she is.

This is the sorrow of a woman. When you fail, you blame your wife. When you succeed, you can only retreat to the backyard, daring not to take any credit, and with a perfect smile, watching others regard your credit as yours. husband's.

Not only to see him being proud of his spring breeze, but also to watch all the young and beautiful concubines enter the door with a smile when he is old and fading.

But no one remembers what she did.

So what if the man is boiled to death?At that time, she was already old, with gray temples, the best years, the blue sky imprisoned in the four-sided sky.

She remembered that Daiyu once said that if she were a man, she would take a test for fame, enter the Imperial Academy to compile books, and build a yard in the west mountain of the capital. Looking for plum blossoms, a few relatives and friends recite poems and fight against each other, singing and lying drunk.

But they are not.

In the end, they will live in the Sifangyuan, become directors from time to time, and finally spend their whole day worrying about trivial matters, and spend their whole lives around a man who doesn't respect and love them.

Ning Yun clenched the veil tightly, why?

At this time, Binlan came in, carrying four-color snacks, such as peach blossom cakes, creamy golden silk rolls, etc., and three cups of Laojunmei, and placed them on the table, but did not leave, "Girl?" She raised her voice. Said.

Ning Yun lowered his eyes and said, "What?"

Bin Lan stepped forward and whispered in her ear, "Madam, please come over."

Ning Yun smiled and said: "Then I'll go there first, you guys talk first." At the same time, she wondered what would happen if Wang called her at this time.

She supported Binlan, quickly buttoned up her shawl, and came to Wang's room.

Mrs. Wang was talking to Mrs. Zhao, when she saw Ning Yun coming, she smiled and pulled Ning Yun over, saying: "The girl from Marquis Dingguo has posted a post, please go and talk with Sister Lan Yun."

Seeing that Mrs. Wang was happy, Ning Yun narrowed his eyes and said, "Mother, I don't know Miss Lin very well."

Wang said: "Wouldn't it be nice to go back and forth a few more times?"

Ning Yun thought for a while, and could only come to the conclusion that sometimes Wang would subconsciously ignore Xiangyun directly, and said with a smile, "Then big sister, will you go?"

Mrs. Wang was taken aback by the question, and after a while she realized, "I don't seem to have called your big sister." She lowered her head and read the post carefully, making sure that there was no Xiangyun's name.

Mrs. Zhao frowned suddenly, reached out to take the post, looked at it carefully, handed it to Ning Yun, and said, "Maybe your elder sister didn't seal it."

"Second Aunt, let me tell you, but where are the seniors of the three of us?" Ning Yun placed the gold-plated post on the small table in front of Wang, feeling that this thin piece of paper carried infinite heat, and it was very difficult It's hot.

"After several victories now, everyone is more or less a little bit conferred, especially the children of the military officials' families, but the noble family members in Beijing are mostly civil servants, so now the gatherings of the noble ladies' families in Beijing are all about the elders and the younger ones. But it is rarely discussed whether there is a patent or not." Ning Yun added.

Mrs. Zhao looked at Mrs. Wang, and smiled coldly, "I didn't expect this to be a scheming plan."
