Lord of Fortune

The ladies didn't believe in evil, so they fought a few rounds with Han Mengqin, changed a few topics, and each wrote a few more poems.It's a pity that Han Mengqin wins every time.They finally didn't believe Han Mengqin's words.

Han Mengqin is really a person who understands poetry, she not only understands, but also is proficient.

Seeing this, Ding Wanyan who came with Han Mengqin was completely relieved.She remembered that since Han Mengqin was very young, her grandfather had attached great importance to her granddaughter, and from time to time sent someone to send Han Mengqin a copybook, a collection of famous poems, etc. to Han Mengqin.Now it seems that the grandfather did not do this purely out of love for his granddaughter. I am afraid that the old man has already noticed Han Mengqin's talent, right?

As a girl from a scholarly family, Ding Wanyan's literary talents are not bad, although she is not very top-notch, but in this small poetry meeting, she can occupy the top three positions every time.

Now, the noble ladies present are in an even worse mood.

They originally looked down upon the two people who stepped in halfway, but it turned out that these two people they didn't like had to compare them!For a moment, everyone felt ashamed.

Besides, Ding Wanyan was fine, Han Mengqin's experience really made people not so happy.

According to the backgrounds of the noble ladies present, it is not difficult to find a fiancé who is well-matched, but it is not so easy to find a fiancé who is well-matched and has outstanding ability and appearance.Not to mention, a fiance like Chu Chen who is loyal and affectionate to his fiancée.

Now, they learned that Chu Chen not only defended Han Mengqin in every possible way in front of outsiders, but never said a word against Han Mengqin, even when he got along with Han Mengqin in private, he was so caring for Han Mengqin. I couldn't help being silent.

Han Mengqin has a good foundation in poetry, which can be seen as the result of years of hard work.If it is true as she said, all her poems were taught by Chu Chen.How much thought did Chu Chen spend on her?

Unknowingly, Han Mengqin, who showed off her love again, made people look even more unpleasant.

"Miss Han and Marquis Wu An have a good relationship." One of the noble ladies said to the other noble lady, "Sister Xin, you and the future brother-in-law Xin have been compared."

The woman called "Sister Xin" is one of the best among this group of noble girls. Although her fiancé is a descendant of the Hou family, she is a young talent who has been in high school by virtue of her own strength.Ever since they got engaged, the fiancé couple wrote a love poem today, sent a letter tomorrow, and gave each other a gift the day after. They were simply envious of others.

However, that fiancé is a bit of a romantic wit. He is good to his fiancée, and he is equally good to the beautiful maidservants around him. The big maid helps to grind and enjoy the fun of red-sleeve-adding-fragrance.Compared with Han Mengqin and Chu Chen, this pair seems not so enviable.

That "Sister Xin" has always been a proud and arrogant master, and now hearing what the little sister said, his face is a little unhappy.

Princess Xingping snorted coldly when she heard the words: "Xin'er is reserved, it can't be compared to someone who has no regard for propriety-righteousness-integrity-shame. Before she was engaged, she privately gave-accepted! This princess remembers In the early years, Ms. Han was still in the temple, and she acted so recklessly... It's really embarrassing for our women!"

In the several poetry competitions, Xingping County's chief is either ranked second or third, and she is very unhappy now.In the past, when she participated in competitions, others would always restrain themselves a little and not let themselves steal her limelight. This Han Mengqin and Ding Wanyan really didn't wink at all!

Wang Xiuyun has always been a supporter of Princess Xingping, and he agreed aloud when he heard the words: "Sister Xingping said that even if Miss Han is happy for her private meeting with Marquis Wu'an, don't say it so ostentatiously, it will have a lot of influence." Not good. Ms. Han was already controversial because of her low birth, and now she has done this kind of thing... Sorry, in the future, I'm afraid I won't be able to invite you to visit me again, otherwise, my guests may want to I have an opinion."

humiliation.

The shame of Chi-guo-guo.

Han Mengqin saw undisguised satisfaction from Wang Xiuyun's face.It seems that what she expected was right, this is the real purpose of the Wang family's sudden post to her.

How does Wang Xiuyun want her to react to this?

I'm sorry, but she can't even raise a little bit of anger about what has been expected. At most, she sighs. - Just violence.

"Miss Wang probably doesn't know. When I was still in my mother's womb, my mother and Brother Chen's mother made a verbal marriage contract for me and Brother Chen. I disappointed Miss Wang. We have been getting along all these years. It’s not considered private-phase-grant-receive.”

These words, like throwing a stone into calm water, immediately stirred up a thousand waves.

"My brother Chen's reputation, don't bother Ms. Wang and your good sister to worry about it. You are really educated if you use unproven words to accuse others! Don't listen to indecent words, don't speak indecent words, in this regard, Miss Wang has done really well, she is worthy of being a lady from a wealthy family."

Han Mengqin was never polite when it was time to tease someone.What she said seemed to be accusing Wang Xiuyun, but in fact she also scolded Princess Xingping.

Princess Xingping frowned: "Are you accusing us?"

"I only talked about Ms. Wang, and I didn't mention the princess." Of the people present, only Princess Xingping has a title. Han Mengqin will not say anything about her clearly, lest she be accused of being an opponent. reputation for disrespect.Of course, for what she said, Xingping County mainly wanted to be seated by himself, so there was no other way.

Princess Xingping obviously saw this too, and her face became a little ugly.

Wang Xiuyun on the side couldn't bear it anymore, and gritted his teeth bitterly: "Don't be too arrogant."

"I don't dare to be arrogant. When it comes to arrogance, I can't compare to the Wang family. My grandfather Ding's family has never had a relationship with the Wang family. This time, the Wang family specially invited me and my cousin to come to the door. It seems that they are punishing the emperor. Concubine Shu and the third princess I am dissatisfied with one thing, and want to vent my anger on me and my cousin. Since the Wang family does not welcome me and my cousin, please forgive us for not accompanying us."

"By the way, I would like to advise Ms. Wang. It is better not to do such things in the future. In the name of the Wang family's banquet guests, do this to avenge personal revenge and insult-humiliate-guest-guests. Be careful that no one will dare to log in again in the future. Your door!"

After finishing speaking, Han Mengqin took Ding Wanyan's hand and strode away, leaving behind them the noble ladies with ugly faces.

It wasn't until after getting into the carriage that Ding Wanyan relaxed completely, and looked at Han Mengqin with reverence in his eyes: "My cousin is so majestic today, I never thought that such a gentle person like my cousin would have such a tough side. Just now When you were confronting Wang Xiuyun and the others, I couldn't get in a word."

Ding Wanyan is gentle and docile, and rarely argues with others.It would be really difficult for her to make her quarrel with others.

Unlike Ding Wanyan, Han Mengqin is truly soft on the outside and strong on the inside.These days, all Ding Wanyan has come into contact with is Han Mengqin's gentle side, so she was really surprised when she saw such a sharp-edged Han Mengqin for the first time.

"Sister Wanyan, I don't have to pay attention to some small fights. But in this situation today, Miss Wang and Princess Xingping clearly want to bully me. If I back down half a step, in the future they will You just think I'm a bully."

"You're right. It's just that Wang Xiuyun and Princess Xingping are not easy to provoke. This time you have swept their face in public. I don't know if they will hold a grudge and wait for an opportunity to get back..." Ding Wanyan was still worried. .

Han Mengqin patted her on the shoulder.This cousin is good at everything, but she tends to look ahead and miss opportunities.

"Cousin, don't worry, even if they don't like me anymore, they can't do anything to me. At worst, I will push all the posts they post in the future."

It is no secret that Han Mengqin and Ding Wanyan were embarrassed by the servants at the gate of Wang's house on the day they arrived at Wang's house.In addition, they left with great fanfare that day and did not save the Wang family any face. This matter was soon known by the superiors.

As Han Mengqin said, Emperor Chongde had just finished punishing Concubine Wang Shu, and Wang Xiuyun targeted Han Mengqin who had never met before.In Emperor Chongde's view, this meant that the Wang family was dissatisfied with his decision.Even the three princesses can't be courted, so what good fruit can Wang Xiuyun have?

After the people below informed Emperor Chongde of this matter, Emperor Chongde looked very calm.

However, only those who have been serving Emperor Chongde personally can see Emperor Chongde's dissatisfaction.

"The members of the Wang family, recently, have been taking my words less and less seriously."

Eunuch Lu, who was beside Emperor Chongde, lowered his eyelids, and persuaded: "The emperor calms down, Miss Wang has always been on good terms with the third princess, and would humiliate Miss Han face to face. I think it was because of a moment of desperation that I became confused."

As the servant of the emperor, he is well versed in the way of calmly stirring up Emperor Chongde's anger.

Before he reached his present position, Empress Ding had saved his life, and since then, he has made up his mind.Whenever there is an opportunity, he will repay Queen Ding.

Previously, Empress Ding wanted to send someone to bring Han Mengqin into the palace. It happened that Emperor Chongde was very interested in Han Mengqin, so he took the initiative to invite Ying to inspect Han Mengqin for Emperor Chongde. It was revealed to Emperor Chongde.

This time, Eunuch Lu is going to cheat the members of the Wang family again. He feels that he is probably at odds with the Wang family.However, who made the Wang family blind and insisted on insulting people who shouldn't be insulted?

Emperor Chongde heard the words of Eunuch Lu, and the fire in his heart became more and more intense.

"Preach my will, the Wang family has no way to teach their daughters, so Wang Shangshu is shut up at home and contemplates for a month, so that he can teach his daughter! Wang Shangshu and Mrs. Wang are each fined for half a year!"

Eunuch Lu asked cautiously: "Your Majesty, is this punishment too severe?"

A court official was ordered to contemplate at home for a month, and Concubine Wang Shu was ordered to contemplate behind closed doors for a month, the nature is not the same.One month is enough to change the power structure of the imperial court.Maybe when the time comes, the three-legged balance of Empress Ding, Concubine Wang Shu and Concubine Zhang Xian that Emperor Chongde has worked so hard to maintain will be broken.

As an invisible supporter of Empress Ding, Eunuch Lu certainly didn't want Emperor Chongde to spare the Wang family lightly, but he also didn't want Emperor Chongde to regret after punishing the Wang family—if Emperor Chongde regretted it, he would inevitably think of indirectly making the Wang family happy. He made this decision, Mr. Lu, who always knew how to protect himself wisely.

"Heavy? I still think this punishment is too light!" Emperor Chongde said decisively: "Qin'er has made great contributions to the country and worked hard for the country, but even a little royal daughter dares to humiliate her in public. Let me think about it." , I really feel uncomfortable in my heart. There is also the Wang family, relying on my tolerance for them, their behavior has become more and more domineering recently, so they should be taught a lesson!"

"Since the daughter of the Wang family feels that Qin'er's status is low and she is not worthy to speak with her on an equal footing, I will make Qin'er the princess! This is what Qin'er deserves! Now that Qin'er has won the hearts of the people, I will make some inconveniences It is just right for the imperial court to handle the affairs in person, and she should have a proper identity." Emperor Chongde said.

Soon, Empress Ding learned the news from Eunuch Lu, and she couldn't help but wonder: "Why does the emperor suddenly want to make Qin'er the princess?"

Lu Gonggong said: "Slave, look, the emperor had this idea long ago. This time, he just made up his mind based on what Wang's daughter did. Miss Han is so smart and capable. Now that she has come to the capital, the emperor always I won't keep Ms. Han idle forever. In this way, it is reasonable to give Ms. Han a status of enough weight to be able to walk outside."

"I was originally worried that Qin'er has no royal blood, and the emperor will make her the princess, which will cause criticism. It's for business, but it's fine."

Eunuch Lu said gently, "Your Majesty has been worried that Ms. Han's status is not enough, and she will be bullied in a capital full of noble girls. In the future, Ms. Han will have the status of princess, only under a few princesses, and the empress will also You can rest assured."

"That's true. I'm not worried about Qin'er's temperament. She's not the kind of person who will make her suffer. If her status is also improved, she will always be able to walk more smoothly in this way. Others just want to bully her , I can’t come here clearly.” After speaking, Empress Ding said to Lu Gonggong again: “Thank you, Eunuch, for coming to inform me of this news.”

"Your Majesty is serious. If your Majesty hadn't been kind enough to intercede for this slave, the servant would have been beaten to death by Concubine Li for breaking a teacup of Concubine Li's. I will always remember the kindness your Majesty treated me. "

Eunuch Lu had an arrogant and domineering face in front of many concubines, but because he was a big celebrity around Emperor Chongde, those concubines not only dared not offend him, but even scrambled to curry favor with him.He received the money face to face, then turned around and sold these concubines who were trying to bribe him to Emperor Chongde.He took the money, but everything was done under the permission of Emperor Chongde.

Only in front of Queen Ding would he show humility.If Empress Ding wanted to give him something, he would definitely not accept it. In his opinion, Empress Ding gave his life.There are only routine rewards, and he will not refuse them.

Empress Ding looked at the back of Eunuch Lu leaving, and said to Yao Huang, her confidant maid, "I helped many people at the beginning, and many people forgot about me after they gained power. However, there are still some people with a conscience, Isn't it?"

"Your Majesty is right. Even though there are many wolf-hearted people in the palace, there are still people who value love and righteousness. Mr. Lu seems to only know how to collect money, but in fact he is the most measured. No wonder Your Majesty likes to spread favors on weekdays." Eunuch Lu knows the emperor very well, and with his advice, we can avoid detours. Now that we have reached a critical juncture, we must not be careless."

Empress Ding sighed quietly: "That's right, if you can be kind to others on weekdays, what's the harm in helping them? Maybe at some point, this kindness will come to you."

Soon, Emperor Chongde's imperial decree was sent to Dingfu.

Han Mengqin, the queen's daughter, is of good character, beautiful and intelligent, benevolent and benevolent.

This decree really shocked the jaws of many people.

Everyone knows that Emperor Chongde has always looked at Han Mengqin differently, but no one would have thought that Emperor Chongde would directly confer Han Mengqin as princess, and not just a false conferment, but a conferment directly from Pingyang County!Her food town has reached the upper limit of the princess from the very beginning!Even, as the emperor's new adoptive daughter, her name is going to go to the imperial clan Yudie!

This means that although Han Mengqin has no blood relationship with the royal family, in the future, she will be a serious princess of the royal family!

Even, she is the most valued one among all princesses.There are many princesses who are famous and have no fiefs, and their status is not even as high as hers.For example, the princess of Xingping County who troubled Han Mengqin at Wang Xiuyun's poetry meeting, her title was vain and she had no food. She only had a fixed salary every month. Mengqin is far behind.

In the past, Princess Xingping looked down on Han Mengqin relying on her status, but now that she knew that Han Mengqin had been made Princess, she almost fainted out of breath.

She held her hand tightly: "How is it possible? How could the uncle of the emperor make a woman who has no royal blood as the princess! Could it be that Queen Nading's charm is so great that the uncle of the emperor can't even follow the rules?" Did you ignore it? Father, mother, concubine, and clan also agree with the emperor to do this? Many daughters of princes, county kings and eldest princesses wanted to be named princesses, but they were all rejected by the emperor's uncle! Could it be possible for those clan girls? Not as good as an outsider!"

Princess An sighed: "Do you think that your father and other clan ministers have not stopped you in the court? They raised objections, but they were rejected immediately. The emperor rarely makes arbitrary decisions, and once he No one can stop what he has made up his mind to do. In particular, he bestowed the title of Princess Han in the name of that girl Han Mengqin's meritorious service to the country."

Han Mengqin's merits and influence are there, leaving people speechless.

For such a person to be the princess is simply what everyone expects.The people in the capital who respected Han Mengqin knew about this, and rushed to tell each other, very grateful.They felt that when Han Mengqin was not the princess, she would be able to think of them in this way. Now that she has such a status, she will naturally be able to do more things in the future.

You have to ask why many clan women can't be named princesses?It's very simple, have they made any contribution to the country?

Since most of the princesses and county masters in this dynasty were vain titles, Emperor Chongde was actually not stingy with titles.Those clan women who are eligible to be crowned as princesses and county heads are usually sealed before they get married. Those who are not sealed are mostly because their parents annoyed Emperor Chongde or committed something. Only in this way to give a warning.

Seeing his daughter's wide-eyed eyes, Prince An still didn't believe it, so he couldn't help persuading him: "Now that things have come to an end, don't say such things anymore. If you and that girl from the Wang family didn't talk about things as a little girl from the Han family, the emperor might not He will make her the princess and take the lead for her.

Do you think, compared with that little girl of the Han family, will your uncle Huang value you more, or that little girl? "

"Of course it's me?"

"Wrong, your imperial uncle valued that little girl of the Han family more. The little girl of the Han family made such a mess and saved your uncle's siege. In the eyes of your uncle, that little girl is much more useful than you! "Prince An said solemnly: "Although the father is the younger brother of the emperor, the father and the emperor are not born of the same mother. The emperor has never been very close to the father. He treats your mother and you only mediocrely. You should also Realize the reality. Father doesn't care what you did in the past, but you are not allowed to easily fight against Han Mengqin in the future."

Princess Xingping panicked when she heard the words: "Father, I have already offended Han Mengqin when I go back to the Wang family as a guest. Even if I don't target her, she will target me!"

Princess Xingping herself is a person who must take revenge, and she judges others by herself, so she thinks that Han Mengqin will do the same.

"You don't have to regret what you have done. However, in the future, you also have to make a memory. You must not openly oppose the princess of Pingyang again. For our family, the gain outweighs the loss, do you understand? Although I told you not to make trouble with Han Mengqin, if she wants to bully our family, our family will not be easy to provoke!"

After hearing this, Princess Xingping finally let go of her heart: "Father, my daughter understands, and my daughter will definitely obey my father's wishes."

Prince An thought for a while, and then said: "The little girl of the Wang family is not a sensible person, you'd better have less contact with her, so as not to be troubled by her."

This time, many people's impression of Wang Xiuyun fell to the bottom.They labeled her as ignorant and short-sighted in their hearts.In the future, Wang Xiuyun may have a lot more difficulty in communication than before.

Han Mengqin's title as Princess Princess not only affected Princess Xingping, Wang Xiuyun's life also changed greatly because of this incident.

Originally, she and Princess Xingping jointly humiliated Han Mengqin at the poetry meeting, forcing Han Mengqin to "flee away", and she was secretly proud of herself.Unexpectedly, Emperor Chongde saw all of this.In the end, Emperor Chengde slapped Wang Xiuyun and the Wang family with a thunderbolt!

Outsiders were already quite critical of the Wang family's humiliation-humiliation of the guests, but now that the imperial decree is issued, many people are even more busy trying to curry favor with Han Mengqin and the Ding family, including joining them to taunt Han Meng at Wang Xiuyun's banquet Qin's part of the lady.Some people have always been very good at judging the situation.Such a family, when the Wang family is rich, they will come to add to the cake, and when the Wang family seems to be in decline, they will immediately hide away.

A few days ago, there was still a lot of traffic at the entrance of Wang's house, but after a few days, Wang's house became deserted.

Naturally, Wang Xiuyun also saw this change, and she was filled with resentment and fear: "Why does the emperor attach so much importance to Han Mengqin? Why is she always so lucky!"

Han Mengqin was named princess, which meant that when she saw Han Mengqin in the future, she would have to salute Han Mengqin!

During this banquet, she made things difficult for Han Mengqin so much, can she still expect that Han Mengqin will show mercy to her when they meet again in the future?

Blessings are unparalleled, and misfortunes do not come singly.

Not long after the news of Han Mengqin's title as princess spread, Wang Xiuyun was suddenly reprimanded by Empress Ding's Yizhi. Immediately afterwards, Emperor Chongde also publicly reprimanded Wang Shangshu for teaching his daughter inappropriately, and ordered Wang Shangshu to think behind closed doors for a month. .

Concubine Wang Shu in the palace was grounded, and Wang Shangshu outside the palace was also grounded. The influence of the Wang family in the former court and the harem declined sharply.In the eyes of many people, this is a sign of the decline of the Wang family.

And it is.

While the Wang family was at a disadvantage, the Zhang family crazily seized power and spared no effort to suppress people from the Wang family's lineage. The officials of Yu Wang's family were pulled off the horse, and then their own people were put on it.

But Queen Ding still stood still.No matter how hard the Wang clan prepares the Zhang clan to fight, it doesn't seem to have anything to do with her.

Yao Huang once asked Empress Ding quietly: "Now is an excellent opportunity. Is it not good for the empress to plan something for my uncle and son-in-law? If I can take the opportunity to win some power from the Wang family, my empress will be able to fight against the Zhang family in the future." .”

Although I don't want to admit it, but among the three legs of the Ding Li, Queen Ding is the weakest, the Wang family is the strongest, and the Zhang family is the second.Before the downfall of the Wu family, among the four opposing forces, Queen Ding was still the weakest.The Ding family is weak, and Mr. Ding, who has great influence among the literati, has already retired. Although Empress Ding's elder brother and eldest nephew are working in the official department and doing a good job, they are alone in power and are not as powerful as Zhang The family and the Wang family are flourishing.

Officials from their own family, relatives and friends, and disciples are almost twisted into one force by the Ding family and the Wang family.

Empress Ding could have followed the example of the two, after all, her father had quite a few former students.But she didn't do it in the end.Even some people who took the initiative to defect were persuaded by her.

Now, seeing that the Zhang family has absorbed part of the forces of the Wang family, it has become the most powerful faction in the imperial court.If this continues, the Ding family will probably be the next to suffer!

Yao Huang secretly worried for his master.

"Don't worry." Compared with Yao Huang, Empress Ding is not in a hurry: "You also said that the balance in the court is about to be broken. At that time, the emperor will naturally take action to suppress the recently arrogant Zhang family. In order to avoid the Zhang family threatening his status. Originally, the Zhang family was under the wings of the Wang family, and they concealed it fairly well. Now that the Wang family is showing signs of decay, the Zhang family can't wait to expose their ambitions. I really don't know if they are smart , or stupid."

As a courtier, one can be ambitious, but if this ambition is not restrained, it will arouse the suspicion of the superiors.

From Empress Ding's point of view, it is really unwise for the Zhang family to jump out so quickly.

"Your Majesty, will the Emperor really clean up the Zhang family?" Yao Huang asked hesitantly.

"Just watch." Queen Ding said.

Unlike Yao Huang, who was less politically sensitive, Eunuch Lu was obviously more acute in his understanding of Emperor Chongde's mind and in his judgment of the situation.After learning what Empress Ding said, he couldn't help sighing: "It's the Empress who understands the Sacred Heart, no wonder she is so favored by the Emperor."

In terms of appearance, although Empress Ding is very outstanding, she can't compare with those young and fresh girls.But she was able to hold on to Emperor Chongde's favor all the time. I have to say that this has something to do with her extensive knowledge and understanding of the Sacred Heart.Although Emperor Chongde could enjoy the joy of fish and water with newly promoted nobles and beauties, when he had something to discuss with or confide in, Empress Ding would always be the first choice.

The development of the situation was exactly as Queen Ding expected. After the Zhang family won many benefits from the Wang family, they turned their attention to the Ding family not long after.

Emperor Chongde, who did not respond when the Zhang family attacked the Wang family, finally became angry at this moment.He found a few reasons at random, and demoted all the newly promoted officials from the Zhang family. Some of the vacated positions were handed over to his own people, and some of the forces were handed over to the Ding family and the Ye family. offshoot.

The Ding family is the mother family of Empress Ding, and the Ye family is the natal family of Empress Ding's future son-in-law. Because Chu Chen and the Chu family are not at peace, they have a very close relationship with the natal family. Since that day, the Ye family has been regarded by many people as the Queen's lineage.

Now, everyone could see that Emperor Chongde intended to promote Empress Ding's lineage.Otherwise, how could he have reprimanded the Wang family and the Zhang family one after another, and promoted people from Queen Ding's line instead?

All of a sudden, everyone looked at the Zhang family with gloating eyes.The Wang family, who had been suppressed and beaten by the Zhang family, finally breathed a sigh of relief.Although empress Ding's success in one line is also unpleasant, but it is better than the Zhang family's dominance.As long as they get through the difficulties in front of them, they still have the hope of making a comeback.

After Zhang Xianfei learned of this, she took advantage of her own mother to visit her in the palace, and said to Mrs. Zhang: "It seems that the emperor really intends to pave the way for the seventh prince. If the emperor is interested in my son, he will never be here At this juncture, our family is suppressed like this.”

When the Wang family was reprimanded earlier, the Zhang family, including Concubine Zhang Xian, thought their chance had come.Unfortunately, Emperor Chongde quickly shattered their illusions.Up until now, Concubine Zhang Xian had to admit that if she wanted her son to be the crown prince, she had to remove Queen Ding's mother and son first.Otherwise, in the heart of Emperor Chongde, the first choice would only be the Seventh Prince.

Mrs. Zhang also looked solemn: "I don't know what the empress thinks about this matter? What the master means is that the emperor just warned us, we'd better not act rashly for the time being, wait until this juncture is over, and then think about it."

Concubine Zhang Xian narrowed her eyes dangerously: "If my palace's predictions are correct, the emperor will confer the title of the seventh prince as a prince in a short time. When the mother and son have a firm foothold, it will be too late for us to make plans! "

Mrs. Zhang frowned and said, "Your Majesty, what you mean is..."

"Since we want to plan something, we must hit it with one blow, and we can't let Mrs. Ding stand up. Mother, think about it, is there any reason in this history that can be used to abolish the empress?"

"Conspiracy-rebellion, childless, witch-gu..." The more Mrs. Zhang spoke, her voice became softer.Although she also wholeheartedly hoped that her grandson would sit on the throne of emperor, she had never done such a thing.

Childlessness is definitely not applicable to Queen Ding.If Empress Ding had no children, they would not have to be so anxious now.

There are quite a few queens who have been abolished because of witch-gu, but if something goes wrong in this kind of thing, it is easy to involve themselves.But Chu Chen and the Ye family still have some possibility.But just before they urged the Wu family to speak out about this, they were beaten back by Emperor Chongde.

After a while, Mrs. Zhang said: "I'm afraid this matter is not easy to handle."

"If we come forward, it will naturally be difficult to handle. What if it is the Empress Dowager? In a few days, it will be the memorial day for Concubine Li Gui. I can take this opportunity to 'enlighten' the Empress Dowager. The Empress Dowager lost She left her natal family and lost hope in the future. Now she looks honorable, but she is actually imprisoned in the palace in a disguised form by the emperor. The reason why she was rejected by the emperor is that she has repeatedly targeted Queen Ding. If she is given a chance to take revenge , she will be very happy!"

Concubine Zhang Xian has made up her mind to use a knife to kill people to the end.

Mrs. Zhang thought for a while, and said: "This matter still needs to be discussed in the long run. Your empress must not act rashly. After I go home and discuss it with the master, I will give you an answer."

The more important the matter, the more cautious it is.If the truth of their family's planning for this matter is revealed, the Zhang family will surely fall into a state of doom!

……

Ever since Han Mengqin was made the Princess of Pingyang, people with a little bit of status in the capital changed their previous wait-and-see attitude and became very warm to her.

One of them invites Han Mengqin to be a guest today, and another one of them sends invitations to invite Han Mengqin to the flower viewing banquet tomorrow. From time to time, some people write letters to contact Han Mengqin.If Han Mengqin didn't know that she didn't know these people at all before, she might think that she is very popular.

Ding Wanyan looked down on these people: "I really don't know what to say. When Qin'er was made things difficult by Wang Xiuyun and Princess Xingping, these people came out to speak for Qin'er. Could it be that Qin'er is still expected to be good to them?"

"There are many people in this world who seek advantages and avoid disadvantages. Cousin doesn't need to be so angry. For such people, it's just a matter of maintaining face with them."

"I'm not angry, I just can't understand their behavior." Ding Wanyan muttered in a low voice: "There is some truth, I know it, but I still feel uncomfortable."

"If you're not comfortable, don't think about those people. In a few days, my cousin's shop will open. Cousin might as well come and help my cousin!"

Although Han Mengqin has a big family and a big business now, she no longer takes over the business by herself, but entrusts it to someone she likes to take care of. She only makes adjustments to the development direction of the next year based on the profit status of each year That's all.

On the other hand, the cousin of the Ding family, inspired by Han Mengqin, also took out her own money and decided to set up a small shop to sell flowers.

It has to be said that so far, many women that Han Mengqin has come into contact with, such as Mrs. Hu, such as her cousin, are all very courageous people, and they will do what they say.

On the other hand, this cousin of the Ding family, Xu is protected too well by her parents, so she is a bit soft-tempered. I heard that the family with whom she has made a marriage contract has complicated relationships in the family. I hope she will not suffer in the future.
