It's Hard to Be the Concubine of the Red Chamber

Chapter 43

If we talk about the person who understands Tu Mingjun best in this world, if the queen mother is ranked second, no one will be able to be ranked first.

With the disposition and ability that Tu Minghao has cultivated since he was a child, if he is just an idle prince, he will be at ease, but if he is an emperor, he will undoubtedly lack a lot of enthusiasm.

You know, there was not only His Royal Highness the crown prince in front of Tu Mingjun, but also so many elder brothers, even if the queen mother had great ambitions, she never thought that the throne would fall into the hands of her own son.

Not to mention that the queen mother herself is a stable person, so naturally she never thought about things she shouldn't think about.

And it is precisely because of Tu Mingxun's inadequacy that he needs the guidance of the Supreme Emperor even more.

Therefore, even though she knew that Tu Mingjun and the Supreme Emperor had been a little unhappy recently, the Queen Mother didn't take it seriously, she just thought that the Supreme Emperor just taught Tu Mingjun some things when he was reprimanded - even His Highness the Crown Prince also taught him something when he was young. It is not born with knowledge, and all the skills are taught bit by bit by the Supreme Emperor.

"Historically, there are so many princes and princes in the royal family. Some of them can aspire to the top nine, some can become virtuous ministers and leave their names in history, and some can live a leisurely life. People. I thought about so many older brothers in front of you. I never thought that you would be what you are today. I only saw the age difference between you and the old prince Yizhong. When you enter the court, the children and grandchildren of the old prince Yizhong will also It's time to grow up, if you compete with your nephews, you will not only be inferior, but also make your father displeased. So I have always wanted you to be an idle prince since you were a child—just not to be rich Dagui must have a safe life." Speaking of her own thoughts at the beginning, the queen mother can only lament that good luck made people fool, and she still doesn't feel that there was anything wrong with her back then, "But who would have expected that the old prince of Yizhong would go on such a road... ..."

You know, if Tu Mingjun is really trained in the direction of a loyal minister and good general, he will inevitably feel depressed when he has to become an idle clan member in the future. It is better to really raise him as a happy prince from a young age, on the contrary, he will be able to win the new emperor. like.

In the same way, when Tu Mingxun heard Yuan Chun talking about it, he only felt angry, but if his biological mother said that, although he was not very happy, he still listened patiently.

After all, he also knew that this was actually the truth.

"When it comes to the talent of an emperor, you are actually inferior to your second brother. It is not a bad thing that the Supreme Emperor is willing to teach you—even if he has selfish intentions, but after all, you are the most legitimate one now." And no matter how healthy the Supreme Emperor is. After all, he is also an old man who is nearly seventy years old. How long can he live? After all, it is Tu Mingjun who can survive the other party. The Queen Mother is not worried about this.

Although the Empress Dowager is her husband, if there can only be one husband and son, the Empress Dowager will always keep her son without hesitation, so the Empress Dowager clearly analyzed the current situation from her own perspective with Tu Mingxuan .

"In your harem, the empress is not bad. When she was elected, she wasn't meant to make her mother look good in the world. She can do this now. It's not bad. Among the old people in your palace, Concubine Shu is an anne Concubine An doesn't look bad now, but after all, she has the eldest son of the emperor. When the eldest son of the emperor grows up, it will be a mess sooner or later. Concubine Xian... Yuan Chun has her own thoughts. When she first came to the palace, she was Those who went to the old prince Yizhong or your eldest brother's side concubine had tossed for a while, but then she settled down a lot—she was only fifteen or sixteen years old when she first came, and she had been tossing around for four years. In the circumstances of the year, I probably resigned to my fate, but I settled down in my palace, and I am a child who understands current affairs." Speaking of Yuanchun, the Queen Mother was a little entangled, "She does not have a high family background, but her education and knowledge are not bad. , when you first came to the throne, I sent her to the queen for a while. It was considered a test. If she thought about it, no matter how hard the queen took precautions, she would not be able to count her, but she stayed peacefully for a while. Then I came back, it can be seen that I really didn't have this idea, and there was no big conspiracy in it."

Yuan Chun was never a simple person, even the Empress Dowager knew this, but she didn't say it out loud.

Fortunately, the queen mother looked at Yuan Chun with no bad intentions. Under such circumstances, the foresight that had dealt with the queen mother here before also gave her back.

At least the Queen Mother is very willing to have Tu Mingjun and Yuan Chun get closer.

"As long as you are in this palace now, even if everyone is tied together, you can't compare to Concubine Xian. Although she didn't participate in anything in the previous draft, she let people around her come to find me. At this time, the Taishanghuang added a few Jiangnan girls, which made Zhen's displeasure for a long time, and she said some sarcastic remarks to the Taishanghuang. It is a big taboo to meddle in your father's empress palace." I have to say that Yuan Chun's sudden thought really helped a lot, not only to prevent Concubine Zhen from complaining, but also let the Queen Mother try to find some eyeliners for this draft. It was successfully stuffed into the harem of the Supreme Emperor.

This is the biggest gain in this draft.

In this regard, the queen mother has a good impression of Yuanchun.

"Compared to the Qingliu family, the rules and upbringing of the Xungui family are actually more like the royal family. After all, Concubine Xian is a serious person who has received the entire family's upbringing, and at least she came from an old minister's family. If she has the heart, she is better than others. I have the ability to help you. Although Concubine Xian may not have selfish intentions, you are not so easy to be calculated after all. She just oversteps the mark when she speaks, so you just listen to it. Wait for the future... Left and right Fengzao Palace It's also a secluded place. She also told the nanny next to me before that she is not young, and she may not have the chance to have children. She still wanted to be a confidant by Ben Gong's side, presumably It is also a temperament that can withstand loneliness." Yuan Chun's thoughts were not completely wasted at the Queen Mother's place before, although the Queen Mother is more inclined to her son after all, she is still willing to spend a few words to save her life as much as possible.

After all, the queen mother was struggling in the harem for many years. Even if she had some affection with Yuan Chun before, she was so cold-hearted that she only wanted to save Yuan Chun's life.

——But fortunately, Tu Mingjun today is a person who hasn't turned into the cold-hearted and cold-hearted person he will be in the future.

Although Yuan Chun is still a bit jealous of her because of her background, but after all, Yuan Chun's temperament is pleasing enough, and after getting along for a long time, it is inevitable that she will have some affection, but it is not yet the time to be so cruel.

On the contrary, the Queen Mother said that Yuan Chun had the ability to help him, but he listened to it.

----split line----

Yuan Chun was surprised to find that after he persuaded Tu Minghun to go to the Queen Mother for a few times, Tu Minghuang actually treated him better.

The so-called better, does not refer to bedtime rewards or something, but to become more pleasant.

Even if he said something that sounded a bit rebellious, Tu Minghao could still listen to her with a pleasant face, even if he was really stimulated by Yuan Chun's words sometimes, he just gritted his teeth and turned away without doing anything to Yuan Chun again. What.

Although Yuan Chun was still cautious in his heart, he was bolder on the surface.

"Although the Supreme Emperor has resigned, after all, he has held the power for so long. Although the Supreme Emperor probably has some intentions to give advice to the Holy One, it is impossible not to be unwilling. The first uncle in the former concubine's family is gone. In order to ensure In the case of the interests of the original wife's son, the family background of the uncle married by the natal uncle is not very good, so the grandmother gave the housekeeping rights to the concubine's mother. The Holy One should know that in a normal family, the eldest son always holds power. The eldest son's daughter-in-law is the housekeeper. Since the grandfather is gone, the uncle has naturally become the head of the family. No matter what, there should be an uncle who is the housekeeper. Although it is understandable for the mother to be the housekeeper, it is unreasonable after all, so the mother only takes care of it. In the name of the housekeeper, I actually go to my grandmother to ask a few words every day - it is impossible for my grandmother to explain everything in detail, but as long as I get a few words, even my uncle dare not pick anything wrong , just because although the mother holds the keys to the ledger, it is the grandmother who actually issues the instructions in name.” Yuan Chun lazily explained with an example from his own family, with a narrow smile on his face, “Although the Supreme Emperor is very concerned about the affairs of the previous court, It's clear, but after all, I'm old and lack of energy, the Holy One only picks up some important questions--although the Supreme Emperor will be attentive no matter whether the Holy One asks or not, but here is what the Holy One has to worry about because of his filial piety and hard work. difference."

This is helping Tu Mingjun dig the corner of the Supreme Emperor.

Tu Mingjun looked at Yuan Chun from the sidelines as he casually typed out the chess record while advising himself, but the expression in his eyes was somewhat complicated.

Because of the queen mother's words, Tu Mingjun had the idea of ​​using Yuan Chun as his own think tank, but even so, he was shocked by Yuan Chun's recent opinions for a while.

Then... Although Yuan Chun was treated as usual on the surface, many people were sent to surround Fengzao Palace in private. Although it did not affect Yuan Chun's daily life at all, they still took care of Yuan Chun and did not pass it on outside the palace. information.

Although Yuan Chun was not ignorant of this, he didn't care at all.

On the contrary, he continued to be presumptuous as always.

Yuan Chun is very aware of his current position, as long as the Supreme Emperor is still there, he will always be the irreplaceable one.And although Tu Mingxun became a cold-hearted emperor in the future, he will not let down those who helped him because of his vindictive nature.

So no matter what, I can at least save one life in the end.

For Yuan Chun, this is already very good, as for more things, she has to fight for them by herself.
